THE DANGER LINE.

to Tell Something Definite To-day.
Northeast Storm Signals Were
Kept FIying-Hurricane Has Lost
usual ntensity-Hundreds of In
quiries Made at Morning News
Omce-LOcaI Electric Storm Badly
Frightened the TimOrOus.
Uncertain as to what direction to
take, but losing none of the intensity
while bordering, the West Indian hur-
ricane, first located off the Cuban
coast Saturday, is still giving Savan-
nahians no little concern.
The northeast storm signals are still
flying, and not until to-day will the
Weather Bureau be able to say wheth-
er the hurricane will come bounding
up the Atlantic coast or be DETECTED
and spread it's fury in the Gulf. The
weather officials watched the storm
closely yesterday, but were unable last
night to give out any positive infor-
nation.
Hundreds of inquiries were made
during the day and night at the Morn
ing News Office and at the Weather
Bureau The fact that the hurricane
is one of unusual intensity, and that
it has left destruction in its wake,
has caused Savannahians no little anx-
iety.
Chances About Even.
The chances seem to be about even
that the storm will go into the Gulf
and do it's damage there, and Savan-
nah may escape the blow. There is
nothing certain about a West Indian
disturbance, however, and for this rea-
son the weather officials are always
more or less exercised until all dan
ger has passed.
A severe local electric storm at noon
yesterday badly frightened the timor-
Gus, and there were many who be-
leved that the weather man had slip
ped up, and that the hurricane was
preparing to strike. Ominous clouds
hung low, and it looked as if almost
anything in the way of blow and "a
deluge was about to happen.
Yet only .55 of an inch of rain fell
where it is measured at the Weather
Bureau. 1t rained much harder on
the outskirts of the city and along
the river, however. The clouds were
heavily charged with electricity, and
the display of lightning was vivid. The
local storm had no connection with
the hurricane that has not yet reach
ed the Gulf.
Where Storm Is.
The following was received by the
Morning News yesterday afternoon
from the Washington Bureau:
Washington, Aug. 12.-West Indian
storm, apparently recurring north
ward, toward south coast of Western
Cuba. Gale will set in over South
east Gulf, Southern Florida and West
ern Bahamas this afternoon and might,
and probably over the northeast part
of the Gulf of Mexico and along and
off our South Atlantic coast Thurs
day. 1t is impossible to now deter
mine whether the storm will reach our
Middle and North Atlantic coasts. Due
and timely notice will be given if it
shapes a caurse toward these coasts.
Vessels have been warned not to sail
SO1thward from Atlantic norris -

BY School Board, Except Prin. Howard
Who Voluntarily Resigns.

last Saturday, all of the teachers en-
ployed, last year, ere reelected except
Principal Howard of the High school,
who informed the board that he had
accepted a position in Il Massachusetts
school and did not wish n recollection.
The committee on revision of the
High school courses reported in favor
of introducing a complete commercial
course, including bookkeeping, COM
mcrcial arithmetic, commercial forms,
and other studies belonging to such q
course, along with the sciences, Eng
fish, mathematics and history.
1t was decided to have but one ses-
sion daily in the High school, beginning
ut y. NJ. and closing at 1890. The fall
term will begin, Sept. II.
The committee will proceed at once
to secure strong man for principal or

FOUND IN RIVER.
Body Of Aoijah Trip Picked
Up at South Gardiner.
Had Been Missing Since Tuesday
Bruises Found on Body.
Little Suspicion of Foul Piay-Inquest,
This Morning.

At about 6 o'clock Sunday evening,
Mate Blackman Of the three masted
schooner Nettie Chapman, now dis
charging n cargo of coal for the pulp
mill at South Gardiner noticed some
thing peculiar floating in the water. He
watched it until it was opposite his
vessel. when he made out the form OF
4 floating body. He secured it to the
donkey engine float and notified the
officers. Coroner Andrews was also
notified and went to the scene and
found it to be the body of Abijah Trip.
AS there were bruises on the forehead,
the body was taken to the undertaking
rooms of Preble e Keene, where an in
quest will be held, this morning.
sir. Trip was about 81 years of age
ana had spent the most of his life in
this city and for the past few years had
been a character on the streets. He
was formerly a river driver and went
to war in 1861 where he was a good sol
der. Since his return he had been an
inmate at the Soldiers Home at TOgus,
but took his discharge and since lived
at the aims house in this city. This
place he left, last Tuesday, and as far
as can be learned was last seen that
noon. being under the influence OF
liquor.
He was accustomed to hang about
the bridge to Randolph and about the
docks. There can be no reason ac-
corded to foul play unless in drunken
row, and no can imagine that as he
WAS a harmless and helpless man in al
most every way. He may have fallen
off the bridge or docks while alone and
this way received the wounds found on
the body. AS he was not at all regular
about the Aims house he was not
missed, he having a few places to
which he went while drinking.
only distant relatives survive him.
He was a member of Heath Post, G.. y.
r. of this city.
