Desirable Real Estate.

No man can with truth deny that the
lots on Bolton end Waldburg streets,
between Price and East Broad, to be
sold at auction to- morrow afternoon,are
extremely desirable for homes or in
vestment. Remainder they are the only
lots in what we call Town" North OF
Anderson not already built on or sold
out to builders. The demand for mod
crate priced rental houses in a conven-
lent location is strong and nowhere
else can you get a location near to the
business district cheap enough to ena-
BILE you to accept moderate rents, and
unless you can buy your land cheap,
you cannot get a large interest from
your investment. Many people, in
speaking to me of these lots, say they
like them, but fear they will sell at
higher price than they can afford to
pay. I simply ask you to come to the
sale, and If you don't get them at what
you think proper then don't buy; but
do yourself the justice to be there in
case an opportunity occurs to get
bargain. The people who own these lots
know this is the worst time of the year
to sell, and unless they were willing to
sell cheap they would not be offered at
auction. To every man Of sense, the
fact that the lots are offered at this
time is a guarantee that the lots must
be sold.-John L. Archer, 10 Provident
Building.-ad.
The Savannah morning news., 1901-11-24

There is just one tract of land in the
old limits of the city; that is north
of Anderson and west of East Broad,
which has not already been built up,
that is that land lying between Price
and East Broad streets and fronting
on Gwianett street lane, Bolton street,
Waldburg street, Park avenue (NeW

street and Anderson street.
While this piece of land has been
march of improvement has leaped over
ii and you find handsome residences a
mile further south, and mile further
east; and this big space of ground in
what is now the heart of the city-lies
vacant.
The former owner of the property
died and wisely provided that his es-
tate should not be divided until the
heirs became of age. This tied the
property up so that nothing could be
done with it until the present time.
Twenty lots on Bolton and Waldburg
streets will be sold at auction, next
Monday afternoon at o'clock. Terms
500 cash, 800 a year, with per cent.
interest. Interest ceases on any pay
ments made. Unquestionably they are
the best lots that can be bought, sur
rounded by nice homes, the best street
car service, and within 10 minutes walk
of the Exchange. Great big corner 40

One Ounce of Performance Is Worth
a Ton of Promise.

Oh TrOmlscs
The tendency OF the times is towards
intense individual action. Many
business owes its success to the brains,
energy and strenuous efforts of the
man at the helm. Without him the
business must faii-natters not how
the machinery may have been perfect
ed. His death ends the directing pow
er, the foresight and indomitable will,
that made possible the achievement of
wonderful success. Even If the man
is spared to reach rfpened age, he
cannot keep alive his indomitable will,
his energy wanes with increasing age.
To every man the future is a sealed
book--no one knows what an hour may
bring forth. This proves beyond ques-
ton the advisability of having a suffi-
Gent amount OF good life insurance,
not only as prudent provision against
death, but as a sheet anchor against
troublesome times. Such insurance is
offered by the Massachusetts Mutual
Life Insurance Company, whose poll
cies provide for every possible contin-
gency, viz. Paid-up participating in
surance, cash surrender values, pre-
MUM loans, cash loans, extended in
surance, annual dividends, which If not
drawn in cash to reduce the cost. may
Oe leLl Win lie COHipdily VII Interest
to hasten the maturity of the policy,
or used to increase the amount of the
policy each year. Dividends left with
the Massachusetts Mutual cannot be
forfeited by death, or surrender OF the
policy.

ticle, then send your age and address

gia, III Bay street, east, Savannah.

MRS. J. P. MERRIHEW DEAD.
End Came After Illness of Several
Weeks Mt TeIfaIr Hospital.


Mrs. ]. P. Merrihew died yesterday
morning shortly after o'clock at the
Telfair Hospital after an illness Of
some weeks. In October she returned
from a visit to her sister in Columbia,
and soon after she went to the hos
pital. She was i'll while away. and
it was decided, upon her return, that
1t would be well for her to become a
hospital patient.
On Oct. Mrs. Merrihew entered the
hospital, and for several weeks before
her death she was regarded as dan
gerously i'll. The many friends of her
husband and herself. however, hoped
for the best, and her death, though
not q surprise, was a shock.
Mrs. Merrihew was Miss Frances Ell
Iison Rawls before her marriage, the
daughter of John r. Rawls of Cuuo-
den. She was a woman of rare per-
sonal beauty, and the grace of her
manner added to her attractiveness.
During her young ladyhood she was
a social favorite in Macon, where she
resided for a few years with her Sis
ter, Mrs Isaac Winship. She was
married some seven years ago at Co
lumbia, whence Mr.. Merrihew brought
his bride to Savannah.
No children survive Mrs. Merrihew,
but there are two sisters and three
brothers, besides the bereft widower,
to mourn their loss. The sisters are Mrs.
Winship, who was at the bedside of
Mrs. Merrihew for some days before
her death, and Mrs. r. ]. Blalock of
Columbia. The brothers are Mr.. John
r. Rawls and Mr.. Percy Rawls of In
IN i n l.
of Belcherville, Tex.
The remains will leave this morning
by the Central train for Culloden.
where they will be inferred at the old
family home. Mr.. MerTihew and Mrs.
Winship will accompany the remains.

PREACHER AS PUGILIsT.
Would Have Son Taught rIe-1ents
of the Manly Art


A well-known Savannah minister
said the other day that If he had
son he would first teach the lad his
duty to God, then how to spar and
stand UP against men. What gives
local interest to this assertion is that
if the minister should teach the chap
his catechism, and then have him
taught to spar. would the boy be
ready to defend himself? mol Skill
without strength is unavailing.
Strength without skill is the same.
Build that boy up on fresh meats from
Logan's, then when he directs a blow
at an adversary it will be a telling
one. Scientific sparring enables one
to land blows, but they count for lit
tie unless delivered with force.
Thanks giving is here and Logan will
be ready with turkeys, meats, vege-
tables and everything else you want.

GASOLINE STOVE EXPLODED.
Fruit Seller Was Cooking His Din
ner and Gasoline Caught Fire.


The explosion of a gasoline stove
started a fire in the fruit stand of p
Alexander. at Barnard street and Lib
erty lane, yesterday, but the damage
was slight. Chemical engine No. from
the Central Fire Station answered a
telephone call and extinguished the
flames.
Alexander was cooking in a room in
the rear of his fruit stand when the
explosion occurred. The fruit man es-
capped injury, but was badly frighten-
ed. The burning gasoline set the con-
tents of the room on fire. and did con-
siderable damage before the arrival of
the chamical engine. Alexander SEEM
ed afraid that he was going to get in
to some trouble because of the fire and
appeared badly frightened. The prop
erty is owned by the Cornwell estate,
and the damage to the building was
slight
