Andrews Opera Company.

The Andrews Opera company is
an organization that has been sue
cessful from its infancy fifteen years
ago, aud each year has added to the
popularity and reputation which
has brought it into great promin-
ence as the Standard American
Opera company presenting both
grand and comic opera. Each
opera that will be given, will be q
rare musical treat. A double cast
of principals is always carried with
this company. Among the prom
inent well-known stars are Flor
ence Clayton, Catherine Lee, Nellie
Andrews, Frank Walters, Jay @.
Taylor, George Andrews, James
Stevens, Ed Andews, Chad Parker,
and Chas. D. Hazelrigg, one of the
best known musical directors.
The chorus is a large and notable
one, selected from the best families.
1t is the policy of the Messrs. An
drews to secure this class of singers
and train them during their vaca-
ton in the private school at their
summer home. By this method
the chorus is made up of picked
and we'll trained voices, some of
which have stepped from the ranks
into the position of representative
opera singers of the day, and are
all ladies and gentlemen of the
highest intellectual and moral
standing.
Magnificent effects in costumes
have occupied the attention of New
York'S best costumers and the re-
suit will eclipse all previous efforts.
New and elaborate scenery has
been devised, and the same careful
attention to detail will be given
here that marked the Metropolitan
run

weundsa In the Ash Peak Mine.
An explosion Of about 800 lbs. OF
powder occurred at Ash Peak last
Saturday and no one will ever
know how it occurred.
The magazine was at the 90 foot
level, the workmen coming there
for powder, caps and fuse. ltwas
jast before the nson hour and the
men were hurrying TO get their
blasts set of. Will Phillips, one
Of the survivors, was at the maga
zine, also his cousin, Joe Phillips
and Joe Alamo, and when he left
thetwo were still at the magazine.
Will in hurry rushed down the
ladder so feet to the 100 foot level
and back in the drift TO the east of
the shaft l40 feet to where Ed
Brstton was. VIII was standing
mp against the face Of the drift
when the explosion occurred, and
he and Ed were both knocked
senseless, but neither were hurt.
They soon revived and made their
way to the shaft, near which they
found the body Of Charlie O'Neal,
whose clothes were on fire, which
they extinguished. Mr.. O'Connell
who was tending the whim on the
surface was thrown about 25 feet
and instantly killed.
Timbers were blown out of the
shaft and others set on fire. As
soon as those on the outside could
collect their senses they went down
winze about so feet from the
mains shaft. The two survivors
were rescued by ropes let down to
them, after which they looked up
the dead.
Charlie O'Neal was brought up
from the drift at the. 100 foot level.
We understand that the remains of
Clay Godfrey and Milford Wilson
were found at the bottom of the
shaft below the 100 foot level.
The two men at the magazine were
blown to atom, only parts of them
being found.
The killed were O'Connell, Cabe,
Charlie O'Eeal, Wilford Wilson,
Clay Godfrey, Joe Phillips and Joe
Alamo!

Grove Cemetery. He remained at South
over Junction for several days, and came
in the city at night. He read the Morn
ing News accounts of his escape and
criminal record, and left the city, after
writing to Detective Murphy.
Small says that he went to Washing
ton, D. c., but the weather was cold and
his clothing so thin he decided to return
South. He stopped in both Charlotte and
Columbia, and was going into Charles
ton when he was arrested by the county
officers. He was captured on the night
of the shooting at the four-mile hill, and
is charged with attempting to break into
freight car. Small denies the charge,
and the Charleston city officers say that
he will never be convicted. 1t will be
three months before Small will be tried
on the Charleston charge and for
that reason he is anxious TO
return to Savannah for trial for the
Blumenthal robbery.
Small said that he might plead guilty
to the pawn shop robbery and later said
that he is not guilty. He says that he
does not think he should be punished for
making his escape. Ofioers are paid to
guard their prisoners and if the unfor-
Inmates take a desperate chance and get
away they should not be held RESPONSE
BILE, according to SmalPs doctrines.
Small says that the stolen watch he
tried to sell was given him by another

tion he could not make the officers or a
jury believe his story. and says that these
thoughts prompted him to make his es-

station house formerly used the

it was discovered that one
of the number had a habit, after hours
of crawling through the transom and Wis

A WORD TO TIE ALDERMEN.
As to the Election of a superIntend-
emit of Police.

emit of Police.
Editor Morning News: In view of the
Importance of the Office of chief of the Sa-
vananh police force and the distinction
which our city attained through the high
order of ability and influence of the men
who generally filed the position hereto
fore. il may not be amiss just at this time
to remind the thinking men who are sup
posed to represent the better class OF our
citizens in the present aldermanic board
Of tne fact that there have been instances,
however, In our city's experience when
the morale of the rank and file of its po-
lice force became deplorably lowered and
the efficiency of the service seriously inn
haired because OF the fact that such indi-
vidusIs as constituted the responsibility
OF the force-men of intelligence, spirit and
manly pride--were compelled to do service
under the command of officers for whom
they had but little If any respect.
If therefore behooves the members 81
the present municipal board to be ex-
ceedine4y wary in the selection of man
to fiji the vacancy now existing in our po-
lice department lest they, too, make the
mistake Of electing a man to the position
who may be repugnant to the other off,
GERS of the force, II perchance not I'M
worthy of the respect OF even the MEM
bers of the rank and file.
No man shall be elected TO the position
merely because he is a favorite OF the
campaign workers and election-day heeI
ers of a particular party or club.
He should be a man thoroughly htted
in every particular for the postuon-one
especially who has already had expert
ence in the service. He should also be
man Of good breeding and liberal educa-
ton, and combine with these advantages
the possession OF the personal traits and
characteristics which constitute the true
gentleman. An individual lacking In these
essentials cannot command the respect OF
his men, nor inspire the confidence In
others which will give him standing and
influence among the respectable classes
Of our people -,
I earnestly hope that our aldermen VIII
realize the responsibility which rests upon
them in this matter. and by their action

REPORT ON MORTALITY.
Submitted by DIR. Drummer at Meeting
of Sanitary board.

The quarterly report of the health off,
GER was submitted at the meeting of the
Sanitary Board yesterday afternoon. DR..
Drummer showed that there had been
very little typhoid fever, very little
diphtheria and very little malarial fever
in the city during the quarter but with
smallpox it was a different story, as many
cases have been cared for. There was
one death at the pest house yesterday
the second that has occurred since the
return of DR.. Drummer from duties in
Cuba and his re-assumption of those of
health officer. Considering the great
number of cases of the disease there has
been since that time, it is remarkable
that there have not been more deaths
Scarlet fever, too, has prevailed, and it
has been of very malignant type. There
were twenty-seven cases, and five of the
patients died from the disease.
The mortality during the quarter was
in excess of that of last year, though
less than that for 1899. 1t is against the
record of the year before, however, that
the fight is made, and DR.. Drummer did not
regard the showing with as great salts
faction as he might had a decrease in
mortality been shown.
The following table for the mortality in
the first quarter of three years was
shown:

2 In connection with smallpox, DR.. Brun-
ner said that the approach of warm
weather means the prospect for an i'm
provement in the situation, though there
are now only twenty-five cases at the
pest house Because people do not herd
together in such numbers during the sum-
mer and more air and ventilation is af-
forded by opening doors and windows of
houses, smallpox does not thrive 10 the
same extent as in winter. Its decreased
virulence is not due simply to warm
weather In itself
