was injured by an explosion in the pri-
vate car of President John Shelton

Frightened Woman saved Herself
From Destruction by Fire.

Frightened Woman Saved Herself
From Destruction by Fire.
At an early hour this morning the
mounted policeman riding the division
near the Ogeechee road. in the south
western section of the city, discovered
flames coming from the windows of a
two-story frame house on Bulloch
street, occupied by Virginia Williams,
a colored woman. He turned in an
alarm of fire from box 1874.
While the southern section of the de-
partment was responding to this alarm
the woman living in the house was
aroused from her sleep by the heat
and the cracking of the flames and
saved herself from cremation in the
fiery furnace into which the building
was soon transformed by jumping from
a second-story window to the ground.
Curiously enough she was not injured
by the fall, suffering no i'll effects 9TH
er than the fright she received and the
grief into which she was plunged by
the destruction of all her possessions.
The house was wrapped in flames be-
fore the department reached the scene
and despite every effort that could be
made it and the adjoining house. a one
story building occupied by Mary Nc
Daniels. were destroyed with their con-
tents The houses on either side the
two destroyed were scorched, but not
otherwise damaged. The extent of the
loss is not known.

ALLOWED MORE MONEY.
Fire and Police Departments Both
Get an Increase.

Fire and Police Departments Both
Get an Increase.
Although the budgets submitted by
the various departments of the munich
pal government are being cut by City
Council, the fire and police departments
will be given larger appropriations
than were allowed for the present year
The figures have already been agreed
upon by the Committee of the Whole
The budget of the fire department
showed that it will require $4,000 to
maintain the department, without re-
gard to proposed Improvements, and
the uniform bill, which would bring
the amount nearer 500, 900. The Council
has decided that the department can
get along very nicely with $50 900 for
running expenses. This amount is S.
600 more than was allowed for 1901.
and contemplates the putting in service
of the engine ct station No. 6.
1t is held that the fire department
is getting more and more expensive
each year, and that halt must be
called somewhere. 1t is claimed that
a year or two ago the department was
run satisfactorily on some SOS, 900 and
that the steady increase in the amount
for the maintenance of this branch of
point where a halt must be called. No
appropriation will be made for the
building of a new fire station on VALID
burg street. east of Price, and there
will be no life saving apparatus in
the department during the coming
year
The police department, which was
allowed $4,000 for 1901, will be given
$500 additional. This amount is to
be used for Improvements, and for in
creases in salaries. Council cannot see
the necessity at this time for an in
crease in the size of the force, and
the ten additional men asked for will
not be allowed.
The Park and Tree Commission will
be given $500, the amount appropri-
ated for use during the present year
The appropriation for Laurel Grove
Cemetery, which is cared for by the
commission, is increased $780, The
amount allowed for 1901 was $500.

TAXED TOO MUCH.
Error in Savannah Bank and Trust
Company Amount Corrected.

A special meeting of the Board of
County Commissioners was held at the
Court House yesterday morning for
the purpose of considering an applica-
1ion of the Savannah Bank and Trust
Company for a reduction in the amount
of its taxes. The application was
granted.
1t appeared from the petition of the
bank that its taxable property had
800 and that this return had been ac-
cepted by the tax receiver. Through a
clerical error, however, the return had
appeared on the tax digest as 1929, 500,
and II was from taxation on this ex-
cess return of 100000 that the bank
asked to be relieved.
Controller General Wright had al
ready relieved the bank from the pay.
ment of the states portion of these
excess taxes, amounting to $544, ana
the commissioners was asked to ex-
cuse the payment of the county's por-
ton, amounting to 1856. The appli-
cation was supported by a statement
of the correctness of the facts set forth
from Tax Receiver Baker and was
unanimously granted by the commits
sioners. AS the total state and coun-
~ tax rate is s13 on the $1,000 the con-

OPPOSED TO STREET SHOWS.
Mayor Myers Says They Are Not to
BE Desired.

"oSOF myers says Ihey are MOI To
BE Desired.
Mayor Myers agrees with the edi-
torial in the Morning News yesterday
relative to street shows and their un-
desirability. The observation of those
who have carefully noted the effect of
such shows has been such as to induce
them to indorse the editorial, which
sets forth some of the disadvantages
that follow the attractions.
II have noticed" said the Mayor,
''that no real good follows such shows.
They bring a class of people to the
towns and cities in which they are
held that really do not benefit any
one. OF course, some country people
and people from neighboring places
are attracted. but they are not
in numbers to offset the disadvantage
of a class that is not wanted. Ger
tainly the moral effect of those shows
is not to be desired. They are not
elevating.
This conclusion, believe, will be
reached by all who have given the
shows and street fairs. The Elks did
not make anything from the show they
gave here, and 1 think they are about
ready to admit that they would not
care TO give such another. Charities
are often reputed to be the benefic-
iaries of the shows, when really the
charities reap little or no benefit. The
shows usually carry with them a lot
of fakirs whose business it is to see
that they get everything"

Upon the Occasion of the ships
Arrival at savannah.
The City of Memphis. the steamship
being built for the Ocean Steamship
Company by the Delaware River Iron,
Shipbuilding and Engine Company at
Chester Pa, will be launched some
time in January. The exact date,
President John NJ. Egan said yester-
day, has not been determined upon.
This will depend upon circumstances
and the progress of the work on the
ship.
Miss May Egan. daughter of Presi-
dent Egan, will act as sponsor for the
ship, christening her the city of
Memphis" as she is launched. This
will be in the presence of no great
crowd, as it is not the plan to make
the event the occasion for the assemb-
lage of the friends of the company
that will gather later. when the ship
arrives at Savannah to be installed
upon the Savannah-New York Line.
Only few officials of the company will
attend the launching.
President Egan is making the ar
rangements for the ceremony of
launching the ship. 1t was thought
possible at one time that the event
would be signalized by the prominence
the company would give it, and there
was talk of inviting a large delegation
of Memphis people and others. This
has been given over for a plan for the
celebration of the arrival of the ship
at Savannah. when prominent Memphis
people will be invited by the company.
The contract time for the completion
of the vessel is April 1, 1902, but Pres
ident Egan does not think that she will
be finished by that time. Not before
May or June, he said. viii she be COM
pleted.
