tons in the city schools as viii enable them
to accommodate about $50 additional pu-
pills. There are now about 100 children
whom We have been unable to find room
for in the schools during the year. The
annual increase in the school population
of Savannah is about $50. These are al
most entirely in the lower grades, which
are always full. Many of the older chill
dren are withdrawn each year and placed
al work and as a result the higher grades
are not so crowded. Owing to the de-
mand for room for the lower grades, how
ever, we have to crowd as many as pos
sible into the classes in the higher grades.
Some dimunition in the attendance in the
higher grades can usually be counted upon
during the year, but there is seldom any
decrease in the lower grades
THE necessity of additional school room
for our growing school population is q
pressing question, which will have to be
taken UP by the Board Of Education with
the county authorities at an early date"

A PURE STIMULANT.
A Record of Efficiency Which Has
Never Been EquaIed.

or all preventives of ordinary derange-
ments-Coushs, Gods and chins, none are
so efficient as Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey.
Or if these have been acquired, there is
no cure so effective Scientists endorse
and doetors recommend it for Asthma,
Grip, Bronchitis and Pneumonia. The
reason for this is that Duny's Pure Malt
Whiskey is the only whiskey combining
cumulative and curative properties. 1t is
the only whiskey required by the govern
ment to affix the official stamp--it is taxed
as a medicine, and therefore acknowl
edged as one, not only by the government,
but by the medical profession as well.
Its adaptation for medical purposes has
been tested thousands and thousands of
times. 1t has never been found wanting;
us efficiency has been attested in cases in
Vulnerable. In no case has it ever been
administered without distinct benefit. 1t
is the purest and best of stimulants, and
its use is followed by no unfavorable re-
action.

OUR QUARANTINE.
DIR. LeHardy Opposes Transferring
IL to the Government.


IL to the Government.
The following communication was die
tated by Dr. ]. C. LeHardy. with the
request that It be published:
To the People of Savannah: Stricken
by disease ever since the first of the year,
terests or to guard you against the intro
duction of contagious diseases. 1. am now
informed that smallpox was brought to
this city in a government transport, upon
which a representative of the marine hos
pital service should have been to prevent
such calamity. Now that feel health
returning, and will soon be able to devote
my time to the interest Of our dear city,
l will request you to heip1me in the effort
of placing her in the condition to recuper-
ate her once lucrative summer commerce
with the South Atlantic islands and South
America.
You know that l have always been OPP
posed to placing the key to her gates in
the hands of those who have no interest
whatever in her prosperity. but who on
the contrary, have injured her. Before
1876 our imports in coffee, sugar, molasses,
hides, fruit hard woods, etc. was very
lucrative. After the epidemic of that year
and while our people were under the dread
of the return of the scourge. Assistant
Surgeon Ely McLelland induced the sue
ceeding administration 10 use a system
of long detention at quarantine as the
only safeguard. From that date our sum-
mer trade soon left us, and in 1886 the
last cargo of coffee that was ever i'm
ported here cost its owner 81, 631 for quar-
antine and other. charges incident thereto.
/ am informed that in its praiseworthy ef-
forts to diminish your burden of taxes,
this administration Is about to turn over
the management OF our quarantine to the
United States marine hospital service. II
is my ardent desire 20 avoid such a ca
lamity, and as soon as returning health
permits I hope to be able to put before
you facts and figures that will convince
you that our commercial prosperity and
immunity from disease lies in keeping the
quarantine in our own hands.
