Almost as far as you see in every direc-

heard from one end of the city to the

are well under rway of erection, the. first

SEEN In A DROP OF WATER
The Great Unknown World of Microscopic Life.
Living Forms Of the Most Curious Aspects-The
Amoeba, Foraminifera, Sun.AnimalicuIes and
Other Groups

If drop of water be taken from any
stagnant pool and examined under a
microscope of modern power, says the
Scotsman, a sight will be revealed
which will probably astonish the be-
holder, especially if it be his first peep
into the great world of microscopic
life. Living forms of the most curious
aspect and of infinite variety will be
seen to inhabit this little drop of dirty
water. Some will appear as trans
parent creatures of no particular
shape, or rather of a shape which is
continually changing, the movement of
which from place to place is of a Gu
rious gliding nature difficult to de-
scribe, but something like the flow
of a drop of very thick gum down a
gently inclined surface. Others of
these tiny inhabitants dart about the
field of the microscope with such rap
idity that it is exceedingly difficult
to gain an idea of their actual shape
or even to follow their movements
with the eye. Those of third class
are seen to move more in spiral
manner as if they were boring their
way through the water, and yet 9TH
ers roll over and over in all directions,
or proceed by series of sudden jerks.

IN ITS NEW HOME.
The Georgia Supply Company Now Located in the
Five story Brick Warehouse at Bay and
Whitaker, Formerly the Ferst BuiIdine

The Georgia Supply Company, until
recently located on the Bay at the foot
of Barnard street, in a small building,
is nom domiciled in the large fve-story
brick structure between Bull and Whit
aker formerly occupied by NJ. Ferst's
Sons & Co. The company uses every
foot of the floor space and may have
to have additional room. The Georgia
Supply Company is a little more than
two years old. 1t began business in a
small way but the company is a live
one, and by putting forth a great deal
of energy and everlasting pluck, it may
be counted to-day among the largest
wholesale houses of Savannah.
In the two years and half of bust
ness the company has been forced to
increase its warehouse room twice. AL
though the large structure into which
is has just moved is perhaps the larg-
est in the city devoted to this purpose,
even it may have to be enlarged in
the near future.
The three owners of this business are
Mr.. J. H. Haslam, Mr.. George V. Den
ny and Mr.. w. S. Blum. All are young
men, under SO years of age, but they
are business men of experience, and
what they lack in years is made up in
an active and judicious management
Of things. They went into the mill

sections, according to the nature Of
their locomotive apparatus. In the
first section motion is impaired to the
whole body by the action of either one
or two whiplike threads or lashes,
which wave to and fro and cause a
variety of movements. These forms
are provided with a nucleus and con-
tractile vacuole, and many of them
possess also a brilliant red spot term
ed the eye spot. To this group be-
longs an animal well-known to the
zoologist, and familiar also in a way
to the ocean traveller by it's wonder
full power of emitting light.
The noctiluca, as this organism Is
called, is sometimes present in vast
numbers on the surface of the ocean,
producing a phosphorescence on the
water which is often marveled at. but
more rarely understood. In the other
section of the infusoria locomotion is
effected by a great number of much
shorter threads of ella which are
either scattered over the whole surface
or only in definite places, such as
around the mouth or on the lower
surface of the body. BY the rapid vi
bration of these ella a very effective
means of darting through the water is
provided. Duding the life of the ami
NAL the ella are in constant and ex-

possible to see them unless the crea-
ture suddenly stops or changes its
direction. vast number of forms
belong to this section, among them
may be mentioned the common slipper
animalcule, the sientor, vorticella and
a host of other wonderful creatures
more or less familiar to the student
of pond life.
But this hasty sketch must be as
hastily closed, although very little or
nothing has been said concerning a
number of interesting points connect
ed with the life of these extraordinary
and ubiquitous microscopic beings.
A full account of all that is known
about this vast unseen world of life
would occupy several volumes. The
number of papers and books written by
specialists dealing with the protocol
in all their aspects amounts to be-
tween 200 and 300 every year! But in
reality this ought not to be surpris-
ing, for some groups, such as that
containing the malarial parasite, have
an important economic bearing, while
the whole class is probably as extern
sive in species as any other in either
the animal or vegetable kingdom.
