THE ISOLATION HOSPITAL.
A New Name Adopted for the City's
.,t Pest House.

Health officer Drummer will retain I'M
divided control of the pest house and no
other physician will be permitted to at
tend patients there. This is the substance
of the communication received by Chair
man Dale from Mayor Myers yesterday.
I'VE feel" said Mayor Myers yesterday
that it would not be wise TO permit other
physicians to visit the pest house The
responsibility for it's safe management
rests upon the health officer and Council
looks TO him for it's good conduct"
The county has been lucky in having
only one case 10 be sent to the isolati ton
hospital, as DR.. Drummer has termed the
pest house, and if the county continued
to he as free from the disease in the fu-
ture as 1t has been in the past it will find
il to its advantage to continue sending its
stray cases to the pest houses, notwith-
standing DR.. Burners charges for medi-
cal attendance. than to establish a pest
house of its own.
IF the county had taken the same steps
to protect itself as was done by the city,"
said DR.. Drummer yesterday 1T
need not have been in any
fear for heavy expenses for caring
for smallpox patients. With the 800
tient now at the pest house. probably 900
people could have been vaccinated. An
expenditure of 1880 to 81. 500 would have
vaccinafed practically the entire popuIa-
ton of the county outside of the city.
The laws give ample power 10 the County
Commissioners for this pun pose. The coun-
ty would not have even had to pay for
its vaccine points, as there is law which
provides that the Governor shall furnish
vaccine points upon the demand of the
ordinary of any county"
There are now only seven cases at the
pest house four white and three colored.
The isolation hospital, as it may be off,
cialy termed hereafter, is we'll equipped,
having separate quarters for white and
colored patients. and also separate de-
tention quarters for the members of the
TWO races. The main hospital building
was an old country residence and very
substantial one. The detention quarters
were recently constructed in order 20 per-
init chose simply held under suspicion to
be housed comfortably

of her neighbors A report by the health
department of New Orleans shows eighty
one deaths in that city last month from
the disease.

likely to happen. The peas are above

A CONVERT TO SAVANNAH.
Father Kelley Acknowledges That
He Was HOmesick in New York.

Rev. Father Kelley was able yesterday
to receive number of his friends, who
called to express their pleasure at the
fact that he had recovered sufficiently TO
enable him to return to the city. Father
Kelley is still an invalid, however, and
will be confined to the house until pleas
ant weather prevails, at least.
His attack proved not to be grip, as he
himself thought, his physicians inform
ing him after his convalescence that his
trouble had been bronchitis, followed by
pleurisy.
Il must say that l have become a con-
vert to Savannahs charms" said Father
Kelley yesterday. Il was never SO home
sick in my life and l constantly looked
forward to the time when l could get into
a Pullman car and come back to Savan-
nah. 1 pictured to myself the splendid
weather you were having here, and l was
somewhat surprised to find it not quite so
pleasant 1 had anticipated"
Luckily for the Savannah Cathedral,
Father Kelley was enabled to take UP his
collection for the building fund in ST Pat
rick's Cathedral in New York before be-
ing stricken down. He appealed to the
congregations there six times on one Sun
day and with very satisfactory results,
AS to the matter of the bishopric ap-
pointment Father Kelley said he was en-
trely without information. Asked if he
could account for the numerous reports in
circulation concerning his appointment he
said: THESE reports are for the most
part. no doubt based upon the dispatch TO
the Baltimore Sun from its Rome corre-
spondent. The Sun is regarded as pretty
good authority and its reports from its
Rome correspondent are usually reliable.
The correspondent announced two APP
pointments, that of Bishop Orth of Van
couver, and my own. AS the first an
nouncement has been confirmed it was
taken for granted. I suppose, that the sec-
ond would be also"
1t seems to be a fact, however, that the
appointment has not been made unles
made very recently. A relative of FaIh sr
Kelley, in New York, cabled to friend in
Rome, who is in close touch with the pa
pal authorities there, and received a rep'v
to the effect that the Savannah appoint
ment had not been announced.
~ have no Information on the subject
and am not interest ed in the slightest as
TO the result" said Father Kelley.

This is St. Patrick's Day. No day in

in this country there are few where The
useful element of citizenry is not to he
found in force, there will be a celebration
in honor of their patron saint, but in Sa-
vannah the observance Of the day will be
postponed.
As ST Patrick's Day falls on Saturday it
would be impossible for loyal Irishmen to
observe il as they would like if to-day
were fixed for the celebration. Business
would prevent great many taking part
in any celebration. The parade usually
held in observance of the occasion, there
fore. will be had tomorrow. The other
features will be on Monday
The three local divisions of the Ancient
Order of Hbernians, under the direction
of County President John j. Dillon, will
parade tomorrow morning, escorted by
the Irish Jasper Greens The parade will
start from the hall of the Hibernians, at
the corner of Bay and Abercorn streets,
and will proceed to st. Patricks Church.
The First Regiment Band will be had by
the Greens and the Hibernians will ash
have music.

Their Chateau Leovlle is known rs one

Lippman Bros importations of Rhine

Frankfort-on-the-M Main, Germany.
His Bodenheim Rhine wine is very nice
and delicious, but low price
p. His Marcobrunner Cabinet from select

DECIDED ON THE TRIP,
Greens Have Formally Determined
to Go to Boston

decided TO take the trip to Boston. The
decision was reached after the matter had
been given careful consideration by a COM
mfttee appointed for the purpose and no
question is raised as to the feasibility
It is believed no insurmountable difficulty
will arise and that the company, some
fifty strong, will be in Boston to attend
the annual convention OF the Ancient Or
80
The plan is to take the trip by water.
and it is expected about fifteen days will
be required. On the way back a stop will
be made a New York, where some three
or four days will be enjoyed. The New
York stop will doubtless be an attractive
feature of the jaunt.
Great interest is already being shown
in the prospective trip. Members of the
company of all classes are looking fo--
ward 10 it, and ii is expected that sub
scriptions 10 make it possible will be read
lily made. The company itself will supply
a considerable proportion of all the money
that is to be expended, and no member will
be taken who does not pay one-third of the
pro rata of the expense. 1t is thought
there will be a number who will pay thel-
entire pro rata.
The Greens DO not purpose going outside
the company to ask for subscriptions 10
defray their expenses. They are confident
that they can manage to raise the money
among themselves. Subscriptions from
outside sources. however will not be re-
fused.

City's Fault That Shaft TO COnfeder-
ate Dead Is Not Kept in Repair.

The Morning News called attention yes
terday 10 the condition of the Confederate
monument in the Park Extension and
suggested that it might possibly be wis
dom for the Daughters of the Confederacy
to investigate and improve it's condition.
The monument has been transferred to
the city by the Ladies' Memorial Assooia-
tion, by which it was raised, however, and
the city has assumed responsibility for the
care and maintenance of this shaft TO the
memory of the South's heroic dead.
Several members OF the Savann an
Chapter were spoken to en- the subject
yesterday and all of them regretted that
the city, after accepting the trust. should
permit the monument to fall into its pres
en- condition. 1t is understood that num-
Der of letters have been written to the
Park and Tree Commission and to the city
authorities on the subject, but that all OF
these have failed of result.
Mrs. Margaret Branch Sexton, president
of the Savannah Chapter, when asked the
position of the organization whose official
head she is on the subject of the monu-
ment and it's care, said:
1.-THE local chapter would gladly restore
the monument to its original fair proper
lions, for it is the object of our associa-
ton to preserve the memories of the Con-
federacy and all things pertaining to that
sacred cause are dear to our hearts. The
monument, however is not ours to pro-
tect. 1t was erected through the untiring
efforts of the Ladies' Memorial Associa-
tion, and it represents the love and 10y
atty of the women of our city. On May
10, 1897, the monument was accepted by
the city of Savannah, as a gift from the
memorial association, and the pledge
given TO keep and care for it forever.

pavilion will be built, The ground will be
laid off in plots. seats will be arranged
here and there under the trees, a landing
station will be built, and. on the whole,
a no more pleasant place for a picnic or
pleasure party can be found than the park
when the company has completed its
work
The tract contains about four and a
half acres. Large shade trees are on IT,
aud these win be supplemented by new
ones the company will plant. The loca-
ton is just north of the old Ten Brock
race course, and. in facl, is portion of
the old race grounds.

Dr. Durham was well satisfied with the
site. He says he believes it will make an
admirable place for picnic and other par
ties. A need has long existed for a CON
venient and attractive spot for holding
such affairs, and this need is soon to be
supplied
No name has been decided upon for the
park. Mr. Lotion says prize of $40 will
be offered to the colored person who may
suggest what a committee may regard as
the most suitable and attractive name for
the park. 1t is probable this contest would
excite no little interest among the colored
people, and their attention would be at
tracted to the fact that a park designed
particularly for their use is being estab-
