CITY FATHERS or COLUMBUS.
savannah's Municipal Authorities
show Them About the City.

There were several Columbus visitors in
the city yesterday, including Mayor L. II.
Chappel. Alderman b. F. Wilson, p. t.
Shuttle. r. S. Grier. r. NJ. Kerwin, and
Superintendent of Public Works r. L..
Johnson. The officials are here for the
nurpose of inspecting city improvements.
Mayor Chappell advised Mayor Myers by
letter some days ago of the coming of the
marty. and asked that a guide be given TO
aid them in looking over the city The
visitors made their presence known first
at the Office of Director Gadsden, who
took them in charge. The different fire
stations were visited, a run was taken 10
the water station, ana other points 1t was
desired to visit were inspected. The pur-
pose of the officials is to post themselves
ON the latest improvements in all depart
ments, so they viii be better Informed os
to the best things for which to let the peo-
ples' shekels slide
Early in the afternoon the visitors got
an idea of the time SaVannahs fire de-
nartment can make. Near the corner of
Ray and Drayton streets all the apparatus
came bounding in response to an alarm
from box Z. The lack of room at that
noint caused two Of the machines to slight
run together, but without any serious con-
seouences They were on the spot for
any emergency just the same, and were
complimented by all who witnessed the
run. Supt. Mcguire was present to see
that everything went right; crah ns
others took charge of the party in the
, I fternoon for trip 10 Tybee and other
noints of interest. Supper was had on the
island, and the evening pleasantly spent.

THE OPERA CHORUS BENEFIT.
Tickets Freely Bought for TO-mOr-
rows Night Performance.


The benefit performance for the men,
bers of the chorus of the Brinkley Opera
Company tomorrow night is likely to
prove quite a success. Members of the
chorus who canvassed the city yesterday
were very successful in dlsposing of tick
cts. The situation of the chorus people
was pretty we'll understood, and it re-
quired no argument to induce the liberal
people of Savannah to invest in the benefit
tickets.
While many people bought tickets mere
ly as a kindness to those in need, il is
likely that those who attend the perform
ance will have no reason to regret their
action in so doing. The members of the
chorus intend making an honest effort
to give their moneys worth to those who
have so kindly come TO their assistance.
The programme has already been ar
ranged and some time was spent in re-
hearsing yesterday. The chorus people
will be assisted by local talent, and the
entertainment promises to be very pleas
ant one.
The programme as arranged is as fol-
lows:

y
Goat.
Editor Morning News; II has several
times been my privilege to afford your ag-
ricultural editor valuable information not
readily procurable amid the rural sur
roundings of his native bailiwlck.
1t pleases me at this time to be able to
give him some light upon a question which
he propounds in Mondays paper relative
to the goat (quadrapedes caDricornus bill
libusI The agricultural editor asks,
"Shall the goar become factor?
l can see no reason why he should not
if he wants to, but don't see why he
should want to, as the f. o. b. people have
knocked all the profit out OF the Dusl-
ness. -,
one time or another; know one who is
generally regarded a mule; one or two
are considered hogs by numbers of the
confrerie and a few enjoy the reputation
of being tackasses. Evidently the goat
would have a big handicap on all of these,
as his well known astronomical feats in
devouring posters imply an enormous ad-
vantage when we consider the big piles
of reclamation papers the factor has TO
But I think the types got the question
wrong. and that 1t should read, Shall
the factor become a goat?'
Again, why not?
He finds it doesn't pay to be a bull: 1t is
quite against his grain to be bear; he
caught. Perhaps your editor has made a
good suggestion. For a change, why
shouldn't a factor become a goat?
