ASK FOR THE ROADWAY.
business Men Want One Opened
Through Emmett Park.

a petition TO the City Council to induce
1t to open up roadway about the inner
periphery of Emmett Park will be filed,
probably in time for the meeting to-Inor-
row night. The petition will be signed
by business men who want the roadway
opened in order that they may have ac-
cess to their stores and offices by that
means, as well as others already afford
ed.
1t is claimed that business interests will
be sacrificed If Alderman Horrigan's ideas
about the convention of that portion of
the strand into defined and limited park
are carried out. The business men of that
locality whose places front southwark
upon the park, declare they have the
same right to allow wagons to drive up
to the sidewalk before the premises they
occupy as have occupants of other stores
and offices facing up the strand, from
Lincoln street westward.
Alderman Horrigan said yesterday tina.
he believes his proposed measure for le-
galizing Emmett Park and giving it a place
among the recognized parks of the city
will be carried without a fight. Judging,
however, from the efforts that are made
by the business men who want the road
way. it is apparent that there will De
something of a contest.
Chairman Daffin of the Park and Tree
Commission insists that the roadway
can be constructed without in any way
infringing upon the rights of the resi-
dents of that section of the city or de-
tracing in any way from the beauty of
the park. On the contrary, the work
could be so done as to greatly enhance
the appearance of the park.

Hack Drivers Trouble with a
Drunken Fare.


A man with a paralyFing jag created
considerable stir a night or two ago at
Whitaker and Liberty streets. The man
was in a hack he was taken to the scene
of the comedy by the hack driver who was
anxious to get rid of his fare but was at
a loss to know how to do it,
He explained to one of the by-standers
that the man had been in the vehicle for
about two hours, that he was so drunk
that he knew neither his name nor his adj
dress. and not only did he refuse to pay
his fare. but likewise refused to get out
of the hack.
The driver stopped his hack close to the
sidewalk and for some time stopped all
passers-by and asked them to view his
passenger and see if they could identify
him.
Though the jag had been of the fighting
kind earlier in the game, it was by this
time of the somnolent order. The man
each time that he was awakened would
grunt that he didn't know his name, that
he didn't know where his home was, and
then go off to the land of nod.
Finally during one of these lucid mo-
ments a policeman put in an appearance
and being appealed to by the driver TO
help him out of his predicament, he told
the man to discover in short order who he
was and where he wanted 70 go and az
low the driver to take him there, or he
would spend the remainder of the night in
the barracks
This threat brought the fares scattered
and submerged wits together: he gave the
driver his address, paid him twenty-five
cents for his services and was driven off
for home and temporary oblivion.

SAVANNAH IN 1853.

Mr.. Jos. w. Smith of Andover Re-
calls Its Men and Customs.
Mr.. Joseph w Smith of Andover. Mass.
is at the De Soto. having, with Mrs.
Smith, stopped for a few DAYS stav in
Savannah while making a tour of the
South for his health.
Mr.. Smith is particularly interested in
Savannah. and also in Brunswick. because
he spent some time quite pleasantly in
these cities in 1853 and has interesting
"reminiscences of his stay. He then met
and learned to esteem highly many of
the business men that since have died
though they doubtless will be remembered
by many of the older citizens Among
those to whom he was especially indebt-
ed for couresies were Messrs. Cohen and
Fosdick. cotton dealers and commission
merchants, and Mr.. John Boston. collec-
tor of the port
Among his most vivid recollections of
the customs OF Savannah at that time he
said, is that of abe boat races that used
to be rowed on the Savannah river The
vessels were cypress dug-outs, and they
were manned by the pick of the slaves
of their respective owners.
Mr.. Smith again visited the city i'm 1878
and i'm 1888, and on each visit renewed
his old friendships and made new ones
but since his last visit he has lost many of
those friends and so feels quite a strang-
er now. However on his present visit.
he has met several gentlemen, among
them Maj j. r. Stewart. with whom, yes
terday, he had a pleasant chat about the
Savannah and Savannahians of former
years.

REMAINS WE'RE DISINTERRED.
Bodies of DIR. and Mrs. Aiken Were
Buried in the Wrong Lot

The remains of DR. and Mrs William F.
Aiken, whose tragic deaths were chron-
icled last week, were disinterred yester-
day morning, and are now at rest in a
lot in Bonaventure Cemetery, a short dis
lance from where they were first buried.
Few people were aware of the fact that
a mistake had been made and that the
bodies had been buried in the lot of
another family. This, however, was true
and the dead had to be disturbed and
placed in other soil.
The cemetery people inadvertent-
ly sold the relatives of Dr.
Aiken a lot owned by some one else
The mistake was not discovered until af-
ter the interment, and some pressure is
said to have been brought to bear on the
real owner to have the bodies remain
where they had been placed. The lot had
never been used for burial purposes be-
fore, but it was the intention of the gen.
tleman who purchased it to move the
bodies of some of his relatives there.
The purchase was made several years ago
and because no one was buried in the
lot the superintendent of the cemetery
lost sight of the fact that it was not for
sale.
1t was decided not to disturb the re-
mains until yesterday because numbers of
curious people would visit the grave on
Sunday and comment on the change. 1t
was to avoid this unpleasant occurrence
that the collins remained where they were
first placed for two days after the error
was discovered. The cemetery company
understood that the mistake rested upon
its shoulders and betrayed the expense of
the removal of the remains. The incident
was as deeply regretted by the officers of
the company as 1T was by the relatives
and friends of Dr. and Mrs. Aiken.
