FIGHTERS LEAVING.
Zeig1er Went Yesterday and Mat
thews and West VIII Go To-day.

Zeig1er Went Yesterday and Mat
thews and West VIII Go To-day.
Matte Matthews and Tom1nie West,
the boxers, will leave this afternoon
for New York. from which place Mat
thews will go to Pittsburg to meet
Rube Ferns on the night of Dec. 26. He
expressed himself as thoroughly dis
gusted with his match with Zeigler
Wednesday night, and said that it is a
shame that the people here do not take
more interest in the boxing game.
This departure of West and Mat
thews defeats the effort to get on a
match for West with Marvin Hart or
some other good man. He gave as his
reason for leaving that the money end
OF the business is not sufficient to war
rant his staying. West says that such
a bout as that of Zeigler and Matthews
in the North would have drawn a
house of several thousand.
Zeigler left yesterday for Philadel-
phia, where he will endeavor to get on
match with some good man. He says
that he will return here in the latter
part of january, but it is believed that
he has shaken Savannah forever.
Neither he nor Matthews showed any
outward signs of their battle except a
very few light bruises.

BOOK SELLERS
PAY TWO LICENSES.

After restraining the sale of books
and hushing the cry of the auctioneer
at the Book Publishers sale, on Bull
and Congress streets, the city has re-
coded from the position taken by it,
and Mr.. and Mrs. Corcoran, proprietors
of the stock, have been permitted to
go ahead with the sale without an
therefore, not subject to the auction
GERS license.
Two licenses were required of the
itinerant booksellers, a tax on stock
and a specific tax. These were paid
when the business was first opened. 1t
was the auctioneers license which was
not bought. Mr.. Corcoran, when asked
for his license offered to pay the city
500, or one-half of the amount of the
license, maintaining that he should be
taxed but for six months. The city
attorney decided that since the goods
were owned by the dealers in fee sim
pie, they had a right to sell them in
any manner they pleased, and We're,
Therefore, not subject to the auctioneers
license.
Mr.. Corcoran is pleased with the
prospect for trade in Savannah, and
has decided to open up a book-jobbers
and subscription house. There is, he
thinks, a field for such an establish
ment. there being no book jobbing
house south of Baltimore, and no sub
scription houses, except those in At
lanta. He is now looking about for a
suitable place, and has about decided
to open the new concern in the build
ing formerly occupied by Sebring's
Pharmacy.

KILLED SUPPOSED MAD DOG.
Policeman TuIIis Puts an End TO
Him in a Dental Office.


A small dog, apparently mad, was
the cause Of lively stampede at State
and Bull streets yesterday morning.
The animal was first noticed when IT
entered the office of DR.. H. d. Osborne.
1t came in growing and swapping and
was wet. as though some one, think
ing 1t had a fit, had thrown a bucket
of water on it, This did not improve
its appearance, and when DR.. Osborne
and lady patient discovered that the
animal was frothing at the mouth,
they beat a hasty retreat, closed the
doors and left the dog a prisoner in
the DarloTs.
Patrolman Ben Tullis was summon
ed and told of the vicious pup. 1t was
suggested to him that il would be wise
to shoot the dog and not risk getting
too close to him to do 1t. Tullis
thought a club would do the business
all right. however. and so armed only
with that weapon he entered the Of
fee
The dog Immediately made for him,
as 1t had at the other persons, snap
ping and barking in most vicious
manner. Tullis gave the animal one
good rap. 1t didn't put the dog out of
business, but drove him to seek shell
ter under the dental chair. He was
poked out of his haven, and given an
other rap that ended his career; then
he was thrown into the street The
body was viewed for a minute or two
by the curious crowd that had been
attracted to the scene, then this grad
ually melted away and the incident
closed

MARKET WILL BE SUPPLIED.
With Turkeys and other Fowls for
the Holidays.


Marketing at present is rather
Slow" said a dealer yesterday, "as the
people are holding off for the holiday
feast. About a week from now the
buying of turkey and other fowl will
begin and from then until the holidays
are over the trade will be good"
AS to the probable condition of the
market for Christmas the dealer said
it will be well supplied. Coops of tur-
keys, chickens and other fowls are now
arriving by every express, but the
general shipment will not begin until
next week when they will come in by
the carload and the market will be
filled.
The turkeys being bought now are
being penned up and stuffed, as many
people prefer to coop and prepare their
fowls than to buy them from the deal
er at the time of consumption. The
most of them are sold by the pound,
though others are sold by the head and
bring from $1.25 to $3.50 each. The
prices for the holidays will range
about the same as they did Thanks
giving.
The most of the fowls are coming
from Tennessee and Ohio, though quite
a few come from Fowlville, Faceville,
and other points in Southwestern
Georgia.
