appeared. Business is handled differently
and such drayage traffic as remains large
~ makes use of other streets. The traf-
nc on the street has greatly decreased
WITHIN the last seven or eight years.
There can be but little objection on the
score of interference with traffic. The
danger would be slight Trains run
through the streets of almost every prin-
cipal city in the country and accidents
are rare. Some people would object to
having the even tenor of their ways dis
turbed by the rumbling of trains and the
sight of freight cars on the streets would
be offensive to their aesthetic tastes If
so they could seek other quarters. Such
considerations cannot weigh in the bust
ness scale Of to-day.
primarily this Is a move on the part
of the business men, said Alderman Will
Hams Instead of seeking to impose on
erous conditions upon the railroads the
CITY should take the initiative and should
urge upon the railroads to provide the
desired facilities, with such proper and
reasonable restrictions. of course, are
necessary for the safety of life and prop
erty. The benefits to be derived are
many. The retention of business ON the
street, the opportunities for business ex-
pansion, the benefits to property owners
in increased rentals and in enabling them
to secure tenants for idle property, the
opportunity to make use of much of the
property on the street now idle for manu-
featuring industries, in one of the chief
requisites of which is easy access to rail-
roads the benefits to the city In increased
taxable values and the general benefit to
the community by the additional stimulus
and activity which will be given to its
business life. The results would be to al
most revolutionize business conditions and
to place Savannah on an equality with
her competitors

REVIVAL STOPPED THE WORK.
Religious FervOr Caused Basket
Factory to Shut Down.

Sharpstown. Md, Feb. 1S.-Owing to the
results of a revival which is being held
here at the Methodist Church, large
basket factory had to close down Friday.
Soon after o'clock in the morning about
thirty young women employed In the fac
tory became enthused with religious fer
vor and began to sing, pray and shout.
The men at work In another department
were attracted to the scene.
The proprietor of the factory, who is
a prominent Methodist, was called. He
made no effort to control the girls, but
told them to shout and rejoice and he
would pay them as much for this as for
working.
News OF the unexpected demonstration
spread, and so many persons visited the
factory that the work was brought COM
pletely to a standstill. Probably 500 per-
sons visited the scene. Without stopping
for food or rest, the services were con-
tinued until late in the afternoon, when
the people went to their homes complete
ly exhausted. A number of conversions
were made

Editor Morning News: 1 think your
suggestions concerning changing the
names of the southern streets are in the
right direction; but there is plan, some
what different from yours. which seems
to me obviously the advisable one.
Between Henry and Anderson the street
numbers run in the 130O's, after Anderson
in the HOGS. Why not, therefore, starting
with Anderson as Fourteenth street, call
the next one Fifteenth street, and so on.
Thus the mere number of a house on a
street running south would show the
streets it was between, and the method
is so simple and practical that it ought
to meet the approval of everyone.

patch to the North American from Altoo-
ma, Pa, says:
Two hundred delegates from all parts
of the Pennsylvania Railroad system be-
tween st. Louis and New York represent
ing the brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers met in secret convention here to-
day Sunday to formulate a demand for
an increase in wages.
Chief p. M. Arthur, of the Brotherhood,
presided over the session. Reports of con-
ditions from each division on the sys-
tenn We're made. The arduous work re-
quired on the big modern locomotives was
brought forth and general complaint
made against the system of non-payment
for unavoidable delays necessitating extra
work. A general increase of ten per cent.
was finally recommended TO be acted upon
by the subordinate lodges.
In an interview, Chief Arthur denied
that there is friction between the engin-
GERS and the company at present.

"a FOOLS PARADISE"
An Excellent Entertainment Pre-.
dicted for Tonight.

dicted for Tonight.
"A FOOLS Paradise" TO be presented at
the Theater tonight by local talent, is ex-
pected to attract large audience. The
play is in good hands. and those VINO have
attended the rehearsals predict rendition
of surprising excellence. The entertain-
ment is given for the benefit of Post A
of the Travellers Protective Association
of Savannah and the popularity of the
travelling men should be sufficient alone to
guarantee a satisfactory audience.
Tomorrow and Wednesday nights and
at a Wednesday matinee Joshua Simp-
kins win be seen. The play contains an
ineligible plot. but it is not allowed to
interfere with the fun, which is said to
be in abundance. During the run of the
play some startling scenes and situations
are seen, principal of which. may be said
to be the country saw mill, in the third
act shown in operation cutting up real
timber. The. saw used is the genuine arti-
Gle, the same as used in large country
saw mills. Two bands and an orchestra
accompany the attraction. The bands will
parade at noon.
Hoyt's "a Texas Steer is Thursdays
attraction, matinee and night. Hoyt was
comparatively unknown until "A Texas
Steer took the metropolis by storm and
broke all records by a continuous run of
400 nights Life at the National Capitol
is portrayed, with special attention to
certain types of politicians The hero is
a wealthy Texan, elected to Congress
against his win. One of his first political
friends in Washington is Brassy Gall. It's
a suggestive name, and tells the charac-
ter of the lobbyist represented. He is but
a sample of the humorous yet powerfully
drawn types in which the play abounds.
There is all sorts of fun, with the single
| exception of the vulgar or risque There
| is pretty love story, and some touches
of homely pathos
The appearance at the Savannah Thea
ter of the Theodore Thomas Orchestra on
March 10, will be the most notable must
| cal event of several decades at least in
Savannah
1t is many years since Mr.. Thomas
! played here, and his famous orchestra
! has been constantly growing in power,
strength and perfection. 1t is now recog-
| nized as one of the very first in the
world, and renders a composition in a
| style about as near perfection as can pos
sibly be attained. In addition to this, Mr..
Thomas has the happy faculty of so ar
ranging HIS programmes as to satisfy the
| taste of the most eXacting musician,
while remaining within the range of the
ordinary music lover. 1t is largely this
| charming variety which has made the or
chestra such a power in Chicago, where
enormous audiences greet each perform
ance; and it is only the fact that the
| Auditorium will then be otherwise en-
| gagged, that enables Mr.. Thomas to make
| q two weeks Southern trip.
For many music lovers here, the COM
| ing concert will be a chance of a life
| time.
