body Committed to Rest In Family
Lot at Laurel Grove.
The funeral of the late Thomas P.
Bond took place yesterday afternoon,
from the home of his son-in-law. Mr..
John Screven, Jr., in The Meadows. 1t
was largely attended by the friends of
Mr.. Bond and his family.
The body reached the city in the
morning from Danville, N. Y, where
Mr.. Bonds death occurred on Wednes-
day last. 1t was accompanied by the
sorrowing members of HIS family. I'M
mediately upon the arrival of the re-
mains they were removed to the home
of Mr.. Screven, whence In the after
noon the funeral services took place.
The services at the house and at the
grave in the family lot in Laurel Grove,
where the interment took place, were
conducted by Rev. Robb White, rector
of Christ Church. The funeral was at
tended by a detail from the Georgia

HACKS NEAR THEATER.
Ordinance for New stand Will Be
Passed mt Next Meeting of Council.

Ordinance for New stand VIII Be
Passed mt Next Meeting of Council.
Alderman Watson's ordinance for the
removal of the hackstand from in front
of the Hussars' Club, on Liberty street,
to the north side of McDonough street,
between Bull and Drayton, will proba-
bly, be passed at the next meeting of
Council Thus far no objections from
any Of the property owners or resi-
dents of the proposed location have
been heard, and none are expected. A
hackstand, as a rule, is not very
pleasant neighbor, save when one
wants to catch. a cab.
The proposed stand is alongside the
Theater, fact that would, it is
thought, be found an advantage. For
that matter, however, there has never
been any difficulty by Theater crowds
in getting cabs at the close of per-
formances.
Pedestrians at Bull and Liberty
streets will appreciate the removal of
the hacks. The drivers have way of
passing slowly in front of one, in the
hope, that the pedestrian will decide to
take the vehicle that is so offered. AS
a rule, the only effect this has upon
the pedestrian is the spelling of his
temper. When the hacks are stationed
on McDonough street, there will be
fewer of them passing at Bull and
Liberty streets, and people afoot can
walk in greater peace.

ABOUT PASSENGER MATTERS.
Mr.. w. J. Craig Conferred with MIR.
w. III. Lenhy Yesterday.

General Passenger Agent w. j.
Craig of the Atlantic Coast Line paid
his first visit to Savannah yesterday
position. He met a number of friends
here. but most of his time was devoted
to business. Social calls were given
little attention.
Mr.. Craig spent the day at the Coast
Line offices, discussing the passenger
situation. He met the several officials
and had a long conference with Mr.. w.
H. Leahy, who was chief clerk of the
passenger department of the Plant
System under Col B. w. Wrenn, and
who, it is expected will be division
passenger agent of the. Coast Line.
1t is expected that Mr.. Craig will
issue the circular defining the organ
ization of the passenger department
of the Second division of the Coast Line
this week. 1t is generally believed that
the old division passenger agents of
the Plant System will be retained I'M
der the new regime, but that their
titles will be changed to district pas
senger agents, with the same authority
and territory as heretofore.
One instance. however, in which an
outside man goes is supplied by Mr..
j. ]. Farnsworth. who has been east
ern passenger agent for the Plant Sys-
tenn in New York. The Coast Line has
a passenger representative of its own
in New York, and he will be retained,
while Mr.. Farnsworth will be allowed
to go.
Mr.. Craig left last night for Augusta.
He was general freight and passenger

MORE DRINKING PLACES.
VIII Follow the Successful Oper-
alton of the Air Lift.

alton OF the Air Lift.
The increased flow from the city's
artesian wells, due to the air lift, may
result in the stock of Savannah hav-
ing a greater supply of water another
summer. There are now only four or
five drinking fountains and troughs in
the city that are public, but a need
for more has long been recognized.
Mayor Myers was asked yesterday
If there were enough drinking places
for animals. He answered that he
thought it quite possible that more
would add to the convenience of driv-
ers and would result in less suffering
among the horses and mules, and that
next summer there would probably be
more drinking places established.
The trouble has BEEN" said the
Mayor, that the city has really not
had the water to turn into these drink
ing places. The flow has to be con-
slant, and much water is wasted. The
installation of the air lift, we trust,
will be followed by relief from the
water scarcity, and there will, in that
case, remain no reason why more of
the drinking places cannot be estab-
lshed.
Two or three troughs have been put
in recently by the city. These have
relieved the run that was made upon
the drinking fountains in the northern
section of the city.
During the extremely warm weather
stock requires more water than when
the thermometer is not showing such
great heat. A scarcity of drinking
places is felt by the beasts, and the
drivers are readily conscious OF the
distress of the animals.

You Save That VIII Make You
Successful.

1t Is Not what You Make, But What
You Save That VIII Make You
Successful.
The best, safest and surest way to
save is to have the right kind of life
insurance policy. Primarily, it is pro-
lection; it creates an estate of so many
thousands, just as soon as you have
paid the first premium and received
your policy. Then, again, it is nothing
more than the saving of money, and
1t is in a measure a compulsory saw
ing, for you will know that you must
meet the premiums. Savings other
than this kind are frequently deferred
for a more convenient reason, and the
representation often ends in failure;
besides, it is so easy to draw out money
deposited in savings institutions on the
slightest provocation. If your policy
is in the Massachusetts Mutual, it has
a definite cash and loan value as soon
as it is three years old. For young
men there is no surer, better way to
encourage the habit of saving. 1t
would take years to build up an estate
like this, even If 1t is accomplished.
The result would be no better, If as
good. The Massachusetts Mutual was
organized in 1851; is strong and rell-
able, pays handsome dividends to pol
icy-holders, and is, in it's broadcast
meaning, a policy-holders' company
That company for which it's old policy
holders have a kind word is recon-
mendation in itself. There are many
old Massachusetts Mutual policy-hold-
ers in this community, and every one
of them are well pleased and satisfied.
We will be glad to give you all neces-
sary information if you will write,
sending us your age and address. Harty
& Apple, managers for Georgia, III

TRIED TO PASS BAD DOLLAR.
Negro Arrested with Spurious Coin
Mt Central Depot.

William Gordon, colored, "a years old,
was arrested at the Central depot yes
terday afternoon, charged with attempt
ing to pass a spurious coin. Gordon
went to the depot and hung around
there for some time. His actions
aroused the suspicious of Depot Police
man w. j. Walker, and when Gordon
attempted to pass a counterfeit dollar
at the ticket window, Walker took him
into custody.
The negro was taken to the police
station, where he denied any knowledge
of the coin in his possession. He said
that the dollar was given him in change
by somebody, he could not remember
who, and that he did not know it was
bad until ne was placed under arrest.
Gordon will be arraigned before Re-
corder Myrick tomorrow morning, to
plead to the charge of passing coun-
terfeit coin. At the police station Cor
don's story of having received the coin
from somebody else was given cred
ence, and if no additional evidence
against him is secured he will probably
be discharged.
