FIREMEN MAY INSPECT HOUSES.
Capital Idea is Suggested By a Git
iZen,

When the fire department is called
to burning dwelling here the men are
often put at disadvantage by igno-
rance of its construction, the location
of room, closets, stairways, etc. Talk
ing upon this line yesterday promi-
nent citizen declared that the fremen
should be familiar with the interior ar
rangement of every large hoase in the
town. He will set an example, he says,
by inviting the men to his home and
showing them through it from cellar to
attic, and others should do likewise.
Fire losses might be lighter if this is
done generally,

NEW SCHEDULES ON sEABoARD.
Night Trains Between Savannah and
Montgomery.

The resumption of night trains on
this division of the Seaboard is prom
ised, the new schedule to go on either
Sunday morning next or a week hence.
Fast trains, carrying sleeping cars, will
be operated between Montgomery and
Savannah. The train for Savannah
will pass Americas about midnight,
while that for Montgomery will reach
here about a. m. The exact schedule
will be published in day or two. The
putting on of these trains may mean
the discontinuance of the "Shoofly"
train between Americas and AbbeYille,
from which this city derives more ben
eft, perhaps, than it will from the
new schedule.

Senator A, S. Clay believes the army
will not be enlarged to the full quota
allowed by the new army bill. He has
just returned from Washington, where
he held a conference with President
Mckinley regarding the appointment
of several Georglsns in the army. Mr..
Clay does not think manv Georgians
will land, because he thinks the army
will be recruited to only about $4,000
men and this would necessarily limit
the appointments in the different
states.

II says in part:
I'VE do not know how wise the lady
is. but we hope she is aware that she has
no more legal right to smash saloon
windows in Chicago than she has to hurl
stones through Bishop Morley's front
door or window. At the same time we
agree with the lady that all liquor SELL
ing is illegal according to higher law.
but it is legal according to the lower
law, in whose name Mrs. Nation is like
~ to be arrested if she makes trouble
in the Chicago streets.
When people prove that they can
make speeches and take a basket of well
assorted stones and throw all of them
accurately-do all this after reaching
middle life, yet having had the grace
of quiet in previous years--we them re-
spect and therefore must refrain from
giving advice to them. Some innocent
