KEEP EN- AWAKE AT NIGHT.
Residents of the Southern Section
object to the GonEs.

object to the GOnHs.
Residents of that portion of the south
ern. section of the city through which
the Plant System runs, have kick. and
they are making it. 1t is all about the
automatic electric alarms for crossings
that have just been put in by the system.
The aggrieved residents declare that the
gongs that give warning of the approach
of trains make night hideous with their
clamor. They are walking the streets
during the day with paIlfd faces, pro.
claiming the fact that they have been
unable to sleep at night because of tho
thunderous noises of the gongs. Theil
friends pat them on the back and cheer
them up as best they can with the as
surance that they will get accustomed
to the noise after time.
Have you heard those things in &C.
tion?' one resident asked yesterday
Inc Morning News representative adj
mitted that he had not had the pleasure
"Wei, then, you don't want to-" was
the assurance, particularly at night.
When everything is still they can raise
enough noise to wake the dead. Let
a long freight train approach within 800
yards of a crossing, and you wi1 hear
the gong start up, while a red light be-
g.ns winl<ing at YOU at the same time.
Now il takes that freight a long time
to get past, yet that gong is keeping
up its stroke all the while.
1T is usually the case that the gongs
are only set going by the passage of
trains, but last night something got
wrong with that one right by my home,
and il gave a continuous performance
from IN the evening until 6 to-day. II
was going all the while. Now you car
understand what effect that would have
do not believe the folks out my way
will stand 1t. They will be burning the

can't see any sense in the thing any
way, for there is no one out there az
dead of night to warn off from the
tracks. II there were a steady stream
of traffic, there might De something la
it, but certainly they are useless things
now. What we will do when the warm
weather comes and we have our windows
open is more than / know. Those infer.

QUARANTINE HAS EFFECT.
No More Smallpox Gases Brought in
From South Carolina.

From South Carolina.
A rigid quarantine is still maintained
by the Marine Hospital Service against
South Carolina, and none can get into
the city by the water route without being
vaccinated. 1t is not known when the
quarantine will be raised, but it is pre-
sumed that It will continue until the
smallpox has disappeared from those sec
tons of South Carolina that have rather
constant communication with Savannah.
Since the establishment of the quaran-
tine there has been not a single case of
smallpox found in Savannah that could
be traced to contagion from South Caro-
lima Previous to the Establishment of
the quarantine every case that was dis
covered was either that of some one who
had come from South Carolina or of some
one who had caught the disease from
contsgion from that source. The result
Of the quarantine has been the decided
Improvement of the situation in Savan
nah, and no more cases are appearing.
Last Monday, when the last report
from the surgeon aboard the quarantine
tug was received by Dr. Hobby, there
had been 100 inspections and 800 vacci-
nations. The important traffic between
Savannah and South Carolina by the
water route guarded by the quarantine
tug, DR.. Hobby thinks, has not been in
terfered with by the quarantine, though
possibly number of the small sailing
vessels and row boats that bring produce
to the city have been kept away by the
dread in which the ignorant hold vacci-

WANTS SOUTH PROTECTED.
Mayor Myers Believes Cuban Consti-

Mayor Myers Believes Cuban COnsti-
tuition should be So Framed.
The Cuban constitution should embrace
some provision that might guarantee the
preservation of the South against the in
PRODUCTION of disease from Cuba. That is
what Mayor Myers believes, and he talk
ed yesterday upon that line.
II have followed attentively," said the
Mayor, "the several steps toward the
formulation of the Cuban constitution, and
l have never yet seen any report that
would indicate that the surveillance of
United States authorities is to be exer-
cised in the effort to prevent disease
finding its way from Cuban to Southern
ports. If there is such provision in the
proposed constitution, l have not dis
covered it; II there is not, then Southern
senator's and representatives should see
that one is embodied in the constitution
before it is ratified.
The North has not the same interest
in this matter as has the South. II is
this section that has to fear from the
Introduction of the disease. and our rep
resentatives in Congress should see that
the Cuban constitution is such as to af-
ford us every protection. During the
time that supervision over the health de.
partments in Cuba and precautions
against the expectation from the island
of contagious disease have been exercis-
ed by the United States Marine Hospi-
tai Service, the results have been very
satisfactory, and matters should be so
arranged as to admit of the continuance
of the power of the United States for this

GIVEN A SILVER SERVICE.
Mr.. III. VI. Lotion Remembered by the
s., It. & /. of H Ry. Employees.

Mr.. H. NJ. Lotion, retiring general man
ager Of the Savannah. Thunderbolt and
Isle of Hope Railway, was presented last
night by the employees of the road with
handsome silver tea service.
Mr.. Lotion was invited TO the Office at
O'Clock, and was met there on his ar
rival by a number of his former employees.
Mr. L. K. Meldrim acted as their spokes-
man, and asked Mr.. Lotion to accept the
gift as a slight token of the appreciation
Of the givers. Mr.. Lotions integrity and
zeal had won, he said, not only the es-
TEEN and confidence of his subordinates,
but of everybody with whom he had come
in contact. With the men of the road,
Mr.. Meldrim, continued addressing Mr..
Lotion, your name and virtues are house
hold words. He concluded by wishing
for the retiring official health, happiness,
and continued prosperity.
Mr.. Lotion replied that he hardly knew
how to thank the men for the present, but
wished them all to understand that he APP
preciated deeply their thoughtfulness and
kindly feeling for him of which he should
always consider the beautiful gift as the
outward show
IF 1 have tried to treat you right" he
said, sit was no more than my duty; a
duty that everyone owes to his fellow
men; and if l have succeeded with the
road it is because of the faithful SER
vices of you, and ell the employees of
the road, for you were always ready to
lend a helping hand when it was needed.
I thank you sincerely for your kind re-
membrance of me, and wish you every
success in the world
The service is of five pieces, gold-lined
and engraved; the tea urn bearing the in
scription, Presented By The Employees of
the S. T. & 1. of H.. r. r. Co.." and the
other pieces the initials III. M. L." 1t is
a beautiful present and may well serve
as a remembrance of the excellent feeling
that has always existed between Mr..
Lotion and his men. Mr.. Lotion expects
to leave to-day for Atlanta, where he
will in future live.
