FRANKLIN SQUARE IN BAD FIX.
The Removal of the Old water Tower
Discussed.

Property owners in the vicinity Of
Franklin square cannot understand why
the Park and Tree Commission does not
give it the attention some Of the other
squares receive. There is probably no
neighborhood in the city where there Is
more bountiful supply of children, VINO
would enjoy having green on which 10
romp. For some time the square has been
the dumping ground for old brick, mortar,
sewer pipe and other material, which de-
tracts from the appearance Of things.
Then, too, il has shared the lot of other
squares in having a detachment OF troops,
who succeeded in keeping 1t clean, but
were death to the grass.
There are several who would like to see
the old water tower removed before any
improvements are made, as it is becoming
an eye-sore in that section. The tower
serves no purpose other than to comment
crate the old-time water-works before the
building of the present system. Its re-
moVal would cost the city something, and
for that reason il may be that the tower
VIII stand until il is sold to some one, or
other arrangements are made for its re-
moval. Some of the aldermen seem to
think the city would profit by giving the
property 10 whoever WAL remove II, out
some hold that the time may soon come
when the city will need the tower, and for
that reason had better keep it. Alderman
Dixon says the chances are that it will
never be psed again, but the city could
not afford 10 give it away in order TO have
1t removed.
The probability is that the commissions
attention will be called 10 the condition of
the square, and a request made that some
thlng be done to make it attractive. The
judicious expenditure of a few dollars. and
a strict enforcement of rules against all
lowing trash or other material thrown
upon 1t. viii go a long way to putting it
on an equal footing with other squares
one resident on Congress street. near
franklin square, said he had noticed that
little attention was being paid to it, and he
could speak for the whole neighborhood in
saying that whatever is done will be great
ly appreciated

SAYS SAND GOES INTO SEWERS.
Mr.. Percy suGden Snys Paving Is
Sinking on BAY, West of Farm.

Mr.. Percy suGden Says Paving Is
Sinking on BAY, West of Farm.
Mr. Percy Sugden has noticed another
apparent defect in the house drainage
work, which he thinks it might be well
for the city to investigate This time it
is the sinking of Bay street, which he
believes is due to sand flowing into the
sewers.
ION my way to the Central Railroad
wharves this morning." said Mr.. Sugden,
Il ran into holes in the paving, which
have apparently sunk Immediately over
the sewers On Bay, between Farm and
West Boundary, the paving has sunk
from four to six inches just over the sewer
line, showing that the sinking is due to
the drainage work The cause of this
may not be clear TO some, but it is per-
fectly clear TO me. I have every reason
to believe the sand is washing into the
sewers, which causes the sinking.
About this spot, it will be remembered
the drainage contractors had trouble a
year ago." said Mr.. Sugden. 'When the
street began to sink over the sewers the
paving was removed, the ground packed
and the paving replaced. 1t was found
then that the sand was washing into the
sewers There is every reason to believe
it is doing the same thing this time The
sunken condition of the paving at this
point, however, demands the attention of
the street and lane committee"

ton of the National Council of Jewish Wo-
men was held yesterday afternoon at &
o CLOCK, in the Sunday schoo! room of MGR
va Israel Temple Many of the ladies were
present.
The reports of the officers of the council
were of a very encouraging nature. and
the members were gratifled with the nroa-
ress made during the year. The report
upon the mission school was of particular
interest, that being the feature of the
work to which the ladies have devoted
their best efforts.
The school has been conducted for
three years, with Mrs Amram I'm charge
and the year just past, though St came to
close a month earlier than was desired.
is considered the most satisfactory in its
results of any in its history The kinder
garten was closed last Friday
The attendance was not so large as the
year before, sickness among the children
having kept many of them away, but il is
thought more good among those
who attended was accomplished. The
school was conducted at the corner of
Montgomery and State streets. and il al
ways enjoyed the hDeral patronage of the
poorer Jews of the city. The children
who have attended as benedciaries have
been children between the ages of 3 and T.
A report in which the Council was great
ly interested was that of the secretary.
Miss Ruth Enrich, OF the Little Sisterhood

six months ago among the members of the
grauatlng class of the Sunday school of
the temple, and Mrs. Isaac Minis has been
its leader. The object of the Little Sister

mission school work and to il they are in-
debted for valuable assistance

The transport Sedgwick is expected 10
come up to the city to-day or tomorrow.
The vessel has been at Sapelo for two or
three days to be fumigated. After reeev-
ing what she needs in the way of coal and
supplies, the Sedgwick will leave this port
for Nuevitas. where she will take on l,5O)
discharged soldiers who are to be returned
to this country. 1t is probable the men
will be brought to Savannah.
For several days it has been an open
question as to where the discharged SOL
diers will be landed on their return to the
United States. 1t was the intention TO
land them at New York, as is now being
done with the Immune regiments brought
from Cuba, but the health authorities
there ruled against it. 1t is claimed the
regiments, being under discipline and en-
route to Camp Meade, may land with no
danger of infection TO the population, but
the discharged men will be at once scat
tered over the country, thus increasing the
possibilities of their transmitting any dis
ease that might be among them.
If 1t could be arranged for the discharg
ed soldiers TO go into camp of detention
near New York they could land there as
easily as here, but no camp has been es-
tablshed, and it is though; it viii be found
an advantage 10 use the detention camp
on Daufuskie Island If the Sedgwick
brings the first detachment of 1900 from
Nuevitas 1t is more than likely as many
more discharged soldiers will be brought
10 Daufuskie and from there to the city.
The soldiers will all come with money,
and their scattering through the city will
mean additional dollars for the merchants.

the right of the plaintiffs to garnishee the

that he was a laborer within the mean

YOUTHFUL THIEF CAPTURED.
Almin Brown, IA 1O-Year-Old Negro,
an Adept burglar.


Detectives scully. Barrett and Shea cap
tured yesterday morning little negro of
10 years, who is to all appearances a most
accomplished thief. His names is Almin
Brown and he resides with a relative in the
basement of 20 Harris street, west. Rather,
he did reside there, for his address at pres
ent is the stationhouse and bids fair even
tually to be the county poor fern.
On last Friday Mrs. L. NJ. Goodhue, who
boards in the house in the basement of
which the youthful thief lived, discovered
that she had lost from her room a valu-
able watch and one that she highly priced.
AS nothing else had disappeared she did
not think the loss of the watch the work
of a thief. On Sunday morning she missed
her pocketbook, containing 81 in money
and two checks for $40 and $25 respectively,
and an air rife. She then reported the
matter to the police
The detectives began a search for the
missing property and finally discovered
that the thief had disposed of it al a-.a
of the pawn shops. The watch and rife
were recovered but the checks had been
destroyed and the money spent They fin
ally got clew to the identity of the thief
and he was arrested by Scully at O'Clock.
He denied at first that he had any knowl-
euge.OI the crime, with so much apparent
honesty and sincerity that the
detectives began to think they
had got hold of the wrong individual
but after close questioning broke down
and confessed that he had stolen the prop
erty. He said that he had managed it
by climbing over the balcony and into
window and that three other negro boys
were implicated with him in the theft
These were arrested but as the evidence
ali showed that they could not have been
guilty and that Browns story was simply
a device to get himself out Of trouble, they
were subsequently released.
AS the property, with the exception of
the money and checks. was all recovered,
and as payment on these latter has been
stopped Mrs. Goodhue he's lost nothing
except 81 and her confidence in the little
negro. The precocious thief had spent his
ih-gotten gains at Isle of Hope.

Out of commission have gone the steam

Gibson; the tugs Smith, Maggie, Bachelor,
Paulsen, and launches Bessie May and
Spray. Necessity no longer exists for the
employment of such a number of vessels, as

AID. DIXON WANTS GOOD WORK
Says City VIII Not Accept Paving
Unless Replaced as Found.

A good deal of paving will be torn up
and relaid by the city after the conduit
companies get through with it. All work
of this kind is subject to the approval of
the street and lane committee, and unless
it is properly done, it will not be accept
ed.
ION Bay street ! have noticed a good
deal of relaid paving which will not be
accepted by the city" said Chairman Dix
on of the street and lane committee. It
will be torn up and replaced in proper
manner by the city, and the bills charged
to the companies that should have done
the work in the first instance. Each job
must be done in the proper style, or the
city will not accept it, 1t would pay these
companies TO do the thing right at the
start as it will cost more to tear the
whole thing up and rebuild it than to take
little more time and do the work prop
erly."
