NAcoocHEE IN NEW DRESS.
Has Returned to Savannah After an
Absence of Six Months.

The steamship Nacoochee, Capt Fred
erick Smith, renewed her acquaintance
with Savannah last night, after an abb
sence of about six months, during which
time she was in dry dock at Hoboken, N.
j., where she was given a general over
hauling. She returns with new boilers, fine
triple expansion engines in place of the Cd
compound engines, new donkey engines,
and general overhauling in her state
rooms, saloons and other parts of the ship.
With the improvements that have been
made the Nacoochee is sure to prove ia
vorite Of the Ocean Steamship Company's
fine feet.
The docking and repairing of a steam
ship does not require all the time the Ma
coochee spent at Hoboken. The delay in
not delivering her until Dec. q was due
to a number of unforeseen and unavoid-
able hindrances. In the first place the
scarcity of material was a great draw
back to the Fletcher Company, who did
the work, and with this were other draw
backs which could not be avoided. AS soon
as the way was clear for work, however,
ii was begun with will. The huge boilers
were set up in quick time, while other
machinery was going in az the same time
With the new donkey engines the loading
and discharging of the vessel will be great
this time help the vessel in making faster
passages.
Whether the Nacoochee will run regu-
iarly on the New York line, or resume her
Boston run during January, is not known.
As she Is left out of the schedule of
saNings for January, which has just been
published, it may be the intention TO
leave her on the New York run for a
while. There is some talk, however, of
her taking the place of the Birmingham.
and this ship resuming her New York
run.
Capt. Smith of the Nacoochee is well
known and popular While he did not
bring any passengers down this trip, the
sailing not having been published, is
safe to say his vessel will be deservedly
popular with the travelling public when
she is assigned her regular place. Capt.
Smith is thorough seaman knows every
mile of the coast between Savannah and
Boston and enjoys a reputation that will
give prestige to what may safely be called
the new Nacoochee.

Friends Urge Appointment of COro-
ner Goette on EmbaImers Board.
One at least of Savannahs undertakers
has his application and credentials on file
with Gov Gambler for appointment to the
State Board of Embalmers, before which
all applications for license to carry on the
business in Georgia must come in the flu
ture and by whom the applicants fitness
and skill will be determined.
Coroner John A. Goette is the Savannah
applicant for appointment on the board.
and his credentials and Endorsements are
such as TO warrant a strong belief on the
part of his friends that he win be one of
the Governors appointees. While Mr..
Goette is not making a personal fight for
the appointment he would accept it were
1t rendered, and ii would crafty many
good Gambler men in Savannah If he were
permitted the opportunity to accept and
serve on the board.
b The board will be vested in the future
with large powers and it seems proper
that Its personnel should be made up of
good men and that this section of the
state should have representation. Both
these considerations urge the appoint
ment of Coroner Goette and it is hope
that they will suffice with the Governor.
SO far as Is known his is the only name
that has yet been presented to the Gov
ernor from this city or this section of the
state Several other local undertakeTs,
who were spoken to on the subject, sd d
that while they had not filed applications
they would doubtless accept an appoint
