WILL BE DEVEAUX.
A snNannnhian Had This From the
Presidents own Lips.


Col. ]. H. Deveaux will be reap
pointed collector of customs for the
port of Savannah. This statement
was made yesterday by a gentleman
recently returned from Washington,
where he had an interview with the
President Politics and federal pa
tronage we're discussed. and the Pres
ident said that he did not see why he
should not reappoint Col. Deveaux, as
his service had been efficient.
Another Savannahian, the gentleman
said had called upon President Roose-
welt. His talk with the presi-
dent was upon the collectorship,
and he sought to show the
President that Col. Deveaux should
not be reappointed. Something like the
following dialogue is reported to have
occurred:
THE present incumbent, Mr.. Presi-
dent" said the Savannahian, should
not be re-appointed."
"Why?" asked the President. Has
his administration Of the affairs of his
office not been capable and efficient"
Yes. Mr.. President" the gentleman
is reported to have replied, but he is
unsatisfactory to the business men of
the city. He cannot mix and mingle
among them because he is a colored
man. The collector of the port should
be someone able to receive foreign Wis
ftors to the city, who are there upon
commercial business, but the present
incumbent cannot do So"
Hold right there, sir" answered the
President. "Only two or three days ago
saw a French gentleman who was
just from Savannah. He told me that
he had been most pleasantly received
by Col. Deveaux. AS collector of the
port, Col. Deveaux has given such
service and his recommendations are
so strong that 1 cannot but re-appoint
him."

MADE UP AS PRINCE HENRY.
George schwarx Entered His Place
and Entertained His Friends.

In the guise of Prince Henry, George
Schwarz, proprietor of the Germania
House, entered his own place last night
and entertained those whom he found
assembled within. The makeup was
clever and some of those around the
bar were inclined to the belief that
the Prince had suddenly decided to fly
to Savannah.
Mr.. Schwarz is a patriotic Gern.kn,
and decided to celebrate Henrys ar
rival in this country in his own way.
He could think of no better plan of
honoring the Prince than by initiating
him. The proprietor of the Germania
does not believe in dry jokes, and those
who were in his place were not permit
ted TO go away before hearing several
good stories and having several re-
freshing glasses.

The steamship chattahoochee ar
rived last night at 10:45 o'clock from
New York. The vessel was many
hours past due. having sailed from
New York Friday afternoon, but there
was no apprehension felt here. Presi-

Steamship Company said last night,
before the arrival OF the ship. that he
was satisfied that there was nothing
wrong, but that the vessel had been
delayed only by heavy weather. The
sharp head winds she encountered de-
layed the ship, and she had a very

 I DREANIT I saw Barber Smith using q butcher knife to shave cer- tain agent whom we all know, and when I asked him why he used knife instead of razor he gave me the wink and 8 look that nearly knocked me over

protect their crops from the hOrdes Of
gray squirrels that infest the woods
and like nothing better than roasting
