The late Hazen Pingree, when May

cant-lot gardening for the poor of
cities. The custom has since fallen in
to disuse in the city where it was
started but other cities have developed
the plan and last year the gardens in
Philadelphia yielded $50, 900 worth OF
produce. The expenses, amounting
TO $4, 500, we're met by subscriptions
from philanthropic citizens. In Phila-

be further developed during the com

Eeing Prepared for Consideration
With Mr.. Rourke's Petition.
The city engineer is preparing a map
to show just what the holdings of the
city are at the lower end of Hutchin-
sons Island and on Fig Island. He is
doing this in order that the Committee
on City Lots may the better consider
the petition that was submitted by Mr..
John Rouke not long since for loca-
ton for the establishment of his dry
dock. 1t is not though any available
land is to be found on Hutchinson's
Island but there may be on Fig Island.

asked yesterday if Mr.. Rourke would
be likely to get what he sought. II
we can possibly give it to him." was
the reply I'VE certainly want to en-
courage enterprise. MIR. Rourke asks
to be permitted to buy or to lease
enough of the city's lands as may be
needed for this purpose. l do not

TEACHERS COULDN'T COME.

Expected Visitors From TattnaIl
County Failed to Arrive.
The teachers from Tattnall county,
who were expected to reach the city
yesterday morning for the purpose of
inspecting the public schools of the
city, failed to arrive. Instead Supt.
Ashmore received a letter from School
Commissioner Joseph Smith stating
that the trip had been postponed.
Mr.. Smith said that at this Dartic-
ular seaso of the year it had been i'm
possible to induce a sufficient number
of the teachers to make the trip to
render it advisable or of as much value
to his teaching force as he thought
it ought to be and for this reason he
had determined to postpone it to later
date.
The purpose was to permit the Wis
iting teachers to inspect the schools
of the city while they were in opera
ton and to attend the meeting of the
normal class during the afternoon.
Supt Ashmore and the officers and
teachers of the local system regretted
that their Tattnall county friends
found it impossible or inadvisable at
the present time to make the trip.

NO MALE VISITORS.
Yacht Clubs Board of Stewards 10
Cut on the Privilege.

Cut on the Privilege.
a new rule will be passed by the Sa-
vannah Yacht Clubs board of stew
ards at meeting to be held next Tues
day afternoon. The privilege allowed
members of inviting male residents of
Chatham county to the Yacht Club will
be withdrawn.
The club has grown to such proper
lions" said member of the board of
stewards yesterday. that it is no
longer necessary for it to look to any
others than its members for support
and patronage. Some years ago, when
there were not so many members, there
was some reason in allowing members
to invite friends to the club, as it was
thought that such visits might result in
accesAions to the membership. There
is no need now, however, and the rule
Will he changed. A Savannahian must
be member, or he cannot visit the
club"
This restriction will not extend to
ladies. They have greatly enjoyed their
visits to the Yacht Club, and any rul-
ing against them would strike sorrow
to their hearts. AS they have no de-
sire to blight their own happiness, how
ever, the members of the club will see
to it that the ladies are always well
come.
1t is very probable that the stewards
will take up the question of the an
nual regatta at the meeting, deciding
whether the funds that it would de-
mand shall be expended in musical en-
tertainment and dances during the
summer season.

other Real Estate transactions
Made by c. +. Fulton.
Mr. Charles F. Fulton has just made
a number of real estate deals, among
the most important that have been
made in Savannah recently. The first
of these is a loan of $4,000 which. as
the representative of the Citizens In
vestment Company. he has made for
that concern to the w. c. T. U. The
money is to be used in completing the
new building. of that organization now
in process of construction on Liberty
street, to the rear of st. Patrick $
Church.
The second deal in importance is the
sale of the lot at the northwest corner
of Liberty and Montgomery streets to
the Citizens Bank. The lot is 6Ox9O feet
and the price received for it is $4,000.
1t was formerly the property of the
Savannah Female Asylum.
OF lesser magnitude than the other
transactions but still interesting as
showing the excellent condition of the
real estate market now is another sale
made by Mr.. Fulton, that of part of
a lot at Brady and Whitaker street,
which has been sold for Mrs. Nora
Schroeder to Mrs Lille Tilton for $40.

CUMBEA'S MAN LANDED.
james McAuIifYe to Be Engineer in
Fire Department..

Fire Department..
James McAuliffe has been recon-
mended as an engineer in the fire de-
partment by the Fire Committee of
Council and Supt Mcguire, and will be
appointed by Mayor Myers probably to-
day. The Fire Committee held a
meeting yesterday and agreed on Nc
Auliffe.
McAuliffe is the man who has been
backed by James Cumbea, the labor
orator of the Citizens Club, and about
whom there has been so much talk in
political circles. Considerab BILE was said
about the applicant at a recent rally of
the administration forces at which Mr..
Cumbea spoke. On that occasion the
labor man offered to wager that his
man would land in the position.
The Fire Committee has also recon-
mended the appointment of Fireman
Jack Harper as a foreman. 1t is pro-
posed to fully man and equip Hose Sta
ton No. l, on Waldburg street, east OF
Price, and a regular foreman will be
on duty at that station after certain
improvements to the house have been
made. A combination hose and chemi-
cal wagon will be put in the house af-
ter the necessary Improvements have
been made. Improvements and addl-
tions are also being made at No. sta
ton, on Henry street, and new doors
are being put in at that station.

TWO ROBBERS IDENTIFIED.

by Their Victim.

by Their Victim.
On a charge of highway robbery
Dorsay Delaney and Taylor Thomp-
son. the notorious negro crooks and
confidence men arrested by Detectives
Murphy and Wall on Thursday, will
be arraigned before Recorder Myrick
this morning.
Both negroes were positively identi-
fed yesterday in the police station
house by their victim. Nat Aiken, col
ored, of Ridgeland, S. c. Aiken pick
ed the culprits out of five negroes,
and is absolutely certain that they
are the men who held him UP in the
vicinity of the Plant System depot and
relieved him of a gold watch several
nights ago. At the time of the rob
berry Aiken furnished the detectives
with an accurate description of the
two negroes, and upon this descrip-
ton Delaney and Thompson were ar
rested. Aiken arrived in the city yes
terday and found no difficulty in iden-
tifying his men.
Both prisoners continue to deny their
guilt, although the detectives say that
they would be willing to plead to a
misdemeanor. The officers, however.
are anxious to get Doth men out OF
way for a long term and will push the
felony charge. Delaney is a smooth
individual and as a spotter secured and
enjoyed a rather strong drag" His
shredwness is only equaled by his in
science and the fact that he has es-
capped punishment so often has made
him bold in speech as well as actions.
He declared yesterday that the rob-
berry charge which he will have to face
will end in much the same manner as
have cases in the past, and has practi-
cally defied the detectives to do their

ALARMED THE NEIGHBoRs.
Aged Negro Lunatic Created Con.
sternntiOn on the Street,

James Richards, an S0-year-old ne
gro, created a considerable amount of
CONSERVATION in the neighborhood of
Barnard and Forty-first streets yester-
day morning. For a time he succeed
ed in clearing the streets of pedestri-
ans and forcing the residents of the
neighborhood into their houses and
behind closed doors.
Richards has been Eighty and err
ratio in his conduct for some time, but
yesterday he became violent and strip
ping every stitch of clothes from his
body rushed madly forth into the
street. For a time his violent actions
scared everybody away, but the fever
of his madness soon subsidized and
some of his holder neighbors managed
to get him in hand and lead him
away
During the afternoon a warrant for
lunacy was sworn out against him
and to prevent his doing damage to
himself and his friends he was com
mitted to Jail. A hearing in his case
will be held during the next week and
1T is probable he will be sent to the
asylum at Milledgeville to live out his
rapidly declining days.

FRANK is NOT IN ACCORD.
That Is the Reason the Mayor VIII
Make Jones Chairman.


Make Jones Chairman.
Mayor Myers admitted yesterday
that Alderman Frank is to be sue
ceeded as chairman of the Police Com
mittee of the City Council by Alder
man Jones. The change will probably
be made at the next meeting of Coun-
ell.
why do you supplant Alderman
Frank the Mayor was asked.
Because he is not in accord with
me" was his answer.
Political accord?"
Precisely. The Mayor is in imme-
date charge of the police department,
and it is no more than right and prop
er that the head of the Police Com
mite eshould be in every respect in
accord and harmony with him. This
harmony has not existed between AL
derman Frank and myself for some
time, and l have decided that the eff
ficiency of the department can best
be maintained by placing some one
else al the head of the committee.
Alderman Jones is qualified to as
sumo the duties of the craftsmanship
of the Police Committee. He has been
the second member on the committee,
and has thus had opportunities to IA
miliarize himself with the work. He
is, moreover, in accord with me, and
there would be no clash in the admin
istration of the affairs of the police de-
partment.
mo, l do not know whether Alder
man Frhnk will accept the chairman
ship of the Committee on Accounts
when it is rendered him"
The Mayor was asked if there is any
H.. H.
committees once they have been ap-
pointed, save for cause. He replied in
the negative, saying that it is well
enough understood that the appoint
ments are subject to change and re-
vision, which may be made at any time.

tempt to Rob Frank Deter.
The grand jury indicted w. c.
Groves, Joe Waters and E. H. Marley
yesterday for attempting to rob Frank
Dieter March Is. The story of the
conspiracy to waylay and rob Mr..
Dieter on his way from the city to his
home on the Waters road was told in
the Morning News, the day following
the arrest of the conspirators. 1t was
a thoroughly planned affair and but
for tSe failure of parties to take a
hand in the hold-up and the spotting
of the conspirators by the police de-
tectives. it would probably have been
successfully carried out.
One of the conspirators went back
on the gang and let the police on to
the story. AS a result Groves, Wa
ters and Marley were arrested an
hour before the robbery was to have
been committed. Their Indictment
followed as soon as the case was pre-
scented to the grand jury.
Tom Turner and William lizard
were indicted for attempting to murder
Jasper Hays at Sandhy Station on the
night of April II.
Charles Mitchell, colored was in
dicted for attempt to rape. Mitchell
was arrested several days ago for an

TIL trial of criminal cases before
Judge Norwood, in the City Court yes
terday, was considerably enlivened by
the testimony of Patrolman Nose
Davis. who appeared as witness
against Edward Semken, charged with
vagrancy.
The officer testified he had been fol-
lowing Semken about the streets, day
and night, for several days, and had
yet to see him make an effort to pursue
ANY fair, honest and reputable means
of livelihood" The testimony was a
bit vague and chaotic and the solicitor
endeavored to secure some positive
statement from the witness.
Haven't you seen him do anything? ''
he asked.
We'll" Davis blurted out I've fol-
lowed him around to all these gambling
dens every night for a week"
The investigation was not further
pursued. and when Semken showed he
was actually employed in a tailoring
establishment, Judge Norwood gave
him his liberty.
