Now and then there comes a very
favorable report on the potato yield.
A farmer in the town of Santiago dug
500 bushels of potatoes and he says
that he found but very few that were
damaged to any extent. He is only
one out of many who will be able to
find quite a few fairly good potatoes
that can be markted with safety. The
farmer who has few fairly sound
potatoes this fall will be right in it,
for, unless all signs fail, there will be
pretty stiff prices for good potatoes a
short time hence.
Last Sunday while out hunting a
party accidentlly shot one of Abe

The accident happened as one of the
party who had the team was down on
the roadside. He had just one barrel
of the gun loaded and was holding the
gun pointed at the horse, but he sup
posed that he had his finger on the
trigger of the empty barrel of the gun,
when he had it on the trigger of the
loaded barrel, and as he started IN
the team he gripped the gun and dis
charged it, the load entering the thigh
or haunch of the left leg. The wound
was a bad one and if it does not lame
the horse. it will permanently disfgure

Negro Lad Claims winchester Was
Fired Accidentally Into a Crowd.
For shooting two boys at the West
Broad street school yesterday morn
ing James Lane. colored, is held at the
police station on a charge of assault
with intent to murder.
The shooting was done with a rifle
and caused a good deal of excitement
in the school. 1t is claimed that Lane
was in a rage when he fired two shots
into the crowd of school boys. The
prisoner asserts, however, that the
weapon was discharged accidentally.
Lane says that he had been inform
ed that his brother was in fight with
several boys and was getting the
worst Of 1t. He claims that he started
to the school house to see what was
happening when a boy grabbed the
rifle that he carried. He had made no
effort to use the weapon, he says, up
to the time the boy grappled with him
Lane says that in the scuffle for the
possession of the weapon IL was aCci-
dentally discharged twice. with the re-
suit stated above. He will make this
statement when arraigned before Re-
corder Myrick in Police Court this
morning.

RICE STRAW IN DEMAND.
Savannah Rice Mill Turned Down
Order for 400 Tons at 1918.

Order for 400 Tons at 1918.
Rice straw is acquiring a market
value. Like the cotton seed that part
of a stable Southern product is no
longer thrown away but is baled and
sold to advantage. A few years ago
rice planters would not take the
trouble to bale the straw or bring it to
market. Four dollars per ton was
then it's market price. 1t is worth 81
now and there is a demand for all that
can be supplied. The Savannah Rice
Mill received an order yesterday from
Philadelphia for 400 tons, at 1915,
freight prepaid, but the order could not
be filed.
Mr.. T. J. Davis was the first to make
big shipment of the straw to Phila-
delphia few years ago and lost
money on it. The shipment served the
purpose intended, however, and there
has been a demand for rice straw in
the Philadelphia and other Eastern
markets ever since.
Rice straw is used for a good many
purposes. 1t is used by fruit packers to
a great extent, and fine quality of
paper is made of it. 1t is used prin-
cipally for horse bedding, but it is now
growing in favor as stock and cattle
food in the North.

WAYS TO HELP SAVANNAH
Will be Discussed at Meeting of
Merchants Retail Association.

For the purpose of putting before the
whole country the advantages of Sa-
vannah for all lines of business and
as well for a tourist resort and place
of residence, the Merchants Retail AS
ISOLATION will hold another meeting
this afternoon at o'clock, at the
Screven House. In addition to the
members of the association there will
probably be present Col. ]. H. Estill
of the Savannah Morning News and
Hon. P. A. Stovall of the Savannah
Press, who have received special invi-
tations to be in attendance to assist in
formulating some plan that will assist
the city's growth and prosperity.
1t is probable that at this meeting a
bureau of advertising will be formed.
and that it will be made the province
of this bureau, or of some committee,
to arrange with the railroads to use
their efforts in helping make Savannah
even more of tourist resort than it
is now. 1t is quite possible that the
general discussion may result in other
plans being adopted also, though moth
ing further is planned just now.
The meeting will be presided over by
Mr.. S. Krouskoff, vice president, Mr..
Leopold Adler the president being out
of the city, having left last night for
New York on a business trip that will
keep him away for some three weeks.

The kOdOI Almanac.

The Morning News has just received
with the compliments of the publish
ers, a copy of the Kodol Almanac and
200 Year Calendar, which is certainly
a most unique and useful book.
With copy of this publication al
hand one is in possession of a calendar
which covers the past as far back as
the day of our national Independence
meets all the requirements OF. the pres
ent, and dates as far into the future
as near the beginning of the next CEN
fury. 'tse'
BY reference to this calendar the
day of the week, of any given date in
any month of the year, from 1776 to
1876, may be found at glance. This
information can not be found in any
other publication extant. Another fea-
ture of remarkable interest that this
publication possesses, is. it's weather
forecasts. These predictions are not
only full and complete, and as accur-
ate and reliable as it is possible to cal
culate, but they are definite geograph-
ically, thus localizing the predictions
and foretelling the weather which may
be looked for in each section of the
country.
Messrs. E. c. Dewitt & Co., of Chi
cago, are sole owners and publishers of
the Kodol Almanac and 200 Year Cal
endar, and while several millions of
copies are in circulation, they have yet
few hundred copies of the first
edition, and will send one copy to any
one enclosing 2-cent stamp, with a
request for same, provided this paper
is mentioned.

Song and Spectacle To-day.
"Alice in Wonderland" will be seen
on the theater stage twice to-
day. at matinee at S:15
o'clock, and again at night. A
full dress rehearsal was held at the
theater yesterday afternoon and the
principal parts were finally rehearsed
last night at the Chatham Artillery
Armory. The sale of tickets for both
productions has been large. and the
Daughters of the Confederacy, under
whose auspices the entertainment is
given, have every reason to be graft
fed with their efforts to make it a
success.
There have been few books that
pleased as Lewis Carols witty,
dainty and comparable alice in Won
derland' has done, and few operettas
that so delight the young and interest,
warm and juvenates older people. The
operetta was adapted by Miss Hope
Leonard of New York, from the famous
story. that has been the delight of
young and old for generations. The
libretto is full of sparkling juvenile,
wttticisms and lively dialogue, and the
music bright and catchy. Everybody
knows the wonderings of Alice, in
the wilds. and how she made friends
with the White Rabbit Fish and Frog,
Mock Turtle. Gryphon. Lobster and
other animals. All this has been work.
ed into the operetta.
A feature of the production will be
the appearance. both matinee and
night, of the double quinette which
sang in the Oglethorpe MINISTRIES last
night, and which is composed of Misses
Hull, Warfield, Kenge, duBignon and
Crane, and Messrs. Thomson, Connerat,
Morgan, Hull and Cope.
The prices for the matinee are so
cents for the orchestra, rs cents for
children and 10 cents for the gallery.

VIII be no Criminal Session of City
Court Friday.
The November term of the City Court
came to a close yesterday. when. short
ly after noon, the court was adjourned
until Monday next when the February
term begins. The term just passed has
been one of the busiest in the history
of the court, the court being in session
every day of the term.
At 10 o'clock Monday morning the
February term will commence. AT that
time the docket will be called and
cases assigned for trial during the term.
A great many suits have been filed,
and with the addition of many suits
of old standing, will constitute a heavy
docket.
Fifty jurors were drawn yesterday
morning. and will be required to re-
port on Tuesday, the second day of the
term. After the calling of the docket
on the first day, the regular criminal
session of the court will be held. Ow-
ing to the fact that Friday next. the
usual day for the criminal hearing is
not term day, the cases which would
otherwise come before the court at
that time will be continued until Mon
day.

COMPANY NOT KNOWN HERE.
Savannah Iron Workers Can't See
Advantage of steel Plant on Coast.

savannah Iron workers can't see
Advantage of steel Plant on Coast.
The Mohawk Valley Steel and Wire
Mills, which, it is reported, will erect
extensive plants at Charleston and at
in communication with Savannah
relative to securing $1,00O,O0O in sub
scriptions and a, site for the plant here,
is comparatively unknown among the
foundrymen and iron workers of Sa-
vannah.
One of them, in discussing the posi-
BILE benefit, the enterprise might
have been to Savannah had it decided
to locate here, said that he couldn't
see where the stockholders would have
come in. 1t would be a good thing for
the city, he said. to have any sort of
a plant here that would employ 5000
hands, as it is stated the company will
do, at Brunswick. but, that is about
all.
II don't see how it can pay" he said
ito establish plant of that sort at
either Savannah, Charleston or Bruns-
wick. In the first place 80 per cent.
of the ore that is used is mined in the
Lake Region, which means that a
heavy freight charge would have to be
paid on raw material as well as an
other freight charge on the finished
product, which could not all be utii-
lied locally, and would consequently
have to be shipped over a wide terri
tory.
Even should the company use only
Alabama ore there is still a long haul
to be counted on before it could be
brought from the fields to Savannah,
or for that matter to Brunswick. Fur
ther it is more than improbable that
the company could manufacture under
such disadvantages, and then compete
either here or abroad with the other
big concerns of this country. say the
Billion Dollar Steel Trust, for instance"

Hearing of Motion for New Trial
VIII Take Place Feb. ri.
In the Superior Court yesterday the
hearing of the motion for new trial
in the case of the state against w. ].
Potter was postponed until Feb. 21. The
postponement was occasioned by the
inability of the court stenographer to
complete the brief of evidence. He has
been engaged in the work for the past
ten days, but the testimony is so vol
luminous that it will require fully three
weeks more to complete it, since the
court stenographer. Mr.. j. M Thomas,
is not able to devote his entire time

pelling his attendance on the court.
Counsel for the defense has not vet

be able to do this until the record is
completed. The motion so amended
will contain the principal assignments
