MAY FORM COMPANY
TO MAKE DRESSES.

A project that is now being discussed
among the retail merchants is that of
forming a stock dressmaking estab-
hshment. There is a necessity for
such a company, it is stated, inasmuch
as many of the dresses of Savannah
women are now made in other cities
because of the lack of facilities for Sc
curing the best in workmanship and
pattern at a reasonable cost here.
One gentleman is so satisfied that
such an establishment would meet the
wants of Savannah women that he has
suggested that they be asked for an
expression of opinion on the subject,
with some information from them re-
garding the present status of the
dressmaking question in the city. Such
companies are in successful operation
in other cities, ID is stated and a man
familiar with the business told an in
terested party yesterday that he knew
of no more promising field for another
such concern than in Savannah.

THOUSANDS WILL COME

News of the elaborate programme
that Savannah merchants are prepar-
ing for the excursionists who will be
their guests in this city July q is be-
ing scattered broadcast throughout
the country in the form of posters
and flyers and also in the form of per-
sonal invitations that the various
merchants are addressing each to his
own customers, calling attention to
the magnificent programme that is be-
ing prepared and asking the presence
on the occasion of all who will make
the trip.
AS has been stated before, PAINS
fireworks will be, of course, the chief
attraction of the occasion, though
even were this omitted the chance to
visit Savannah at cheap rate, to
meet in person the merchants and fac
tors of the city and to spend a day
or two at the coast would be in them
selves no small attraction.
That the intended entertainment is
one that appeals to the people gener-
ally is evidenced by the fact that from
Columbia last night a telegram was
received stating that at least 300 visit
ors could be counted on from that
city. Including those who will make
the trip from the intermediate sta
tions, this would give a party of 500
from this section at least.

officers of several other lodges, grand
officers and visitors outside the order

DAYS OF GRACE" ABOLISHED.
Savannah Bankers Pleased That
Legislature Has Acted.

Savannah Bankers Pleased That
Legislature Has Acted.
Mr.. Mills b. Lane. president of the
Citizens Bank, was asked last night
concerning the passage in the State
Legislature of the bill to abolish the
three days of grace" on notes. He
said with a smile that the Savannah
Clearing House had warmly indorsed
and urged the legislation that would do
away with this relic of the days of
stage coaches.
AS had been explained fully before,
Mr.. Lane said. the custom had been
for many years to send a notice to per-
sons whose notes would become due,
stating the last day due and payable.
The three days of grace are always
added and interest computed. The
maker of the note gets his notice in
ample time, and the three days OF
grace are simply that much time put
on, by rule, to the time for which the
obligation is supposed to be made.
The calculation of the interest for
three days on each note is considerable
trouble, and the time that is consumed
seems to have been just that much
wasted.
Mr.. Lane said that the majority of
the states, North. East, South and
West, had already done away with the
three days of grace" and Georgia
was simply coming into line with the
others. He said he did not know of
any similar custom in any other coun-
try, and understood that it was insti-
tuted in the United States many years
ago, in order to provide against the
delays of travel, by coach or private
conveyance, from one point to another.

Gaming.
Two cases that came before Judge
Seabrook who presided in the Superior
Court yesterday, were those in which
Charles Sims and William Thomas,
both colored, were the defendants in
suits charging them with keeping poll
cy shops. They had been caught in a
raid made some time ago by Deputy
Sheriffs Sweeney, McCaffery and Jones.
The men were found guilty and were
sentenced to pay a fine of $100 and
serve six months on the changing, or
in case the fine is not paid, to serve an
additional six months in Jail. This
sentence is in keeping with that i'm
posed by Judge Pope Barrow some
time ago on the negro, Hackett, who
was brought before the court for the
same offense and two others.
The Hackett case was one of
the hardest fought in the court
for months, and bids fair to again come
before public attention in a very short
while. Hackett was sentenced to pay
fine of 800 and serve six months on
the gang, as the result of three charges,
of which he was adjudged guilty: keep
