A NOTABLE FUNERAL.

1t was to be expected that there
would be a great gathering at the
funeral of Emma Booth-Tucker the
country. Her death was a sensation
al one, the victim of a railway acct
dent in the West as she was on her
way to discharge an important duty
connected with the position she held,
and her life had been one that COM
manded the admiration and respect of
good people the world over. Carnegie
Hall in New York couldn't hold the
people who wanted to pay respect to
the memory of the woman who had
done so much for the poor and lowly,
and who had made so many sacrifices
for the waits and wrecks of humanity
Emma Booth-Tucker was a leader of
unusual power. Under her direction
the Salvation Army in this country has
done great work. While others may
have excelled her as a speaker. few
equaled her as an organizer. Her heart
was in her work, and that was one rea-
son for her great success. Often in
view 1Olht GHlCdSO anu
other cities she went forth from her
comfortable surroundings into the Iene-
ment districts on stormy nights, In
company with assistants, to pick up a
waif, utter words of advice to prodi-
gal or lend helping hand to some I'M
fortunate. homeless creature.
She was a cultivated woman and
loved her children, her home and her
books. She found pleasure in the re-
finements of life and was a welcome
guest in refined circles in this country
and England, but she had a passionate
love for the people and felt it to be her
mission to assist in rescuing those who
had fallen so low that they had been
practically abandoned by all upon
whom they had any claim.
No doubt at her funeral there was
more real mourning than there often
is at the funerals of persons who have
assisted in changing the destinies of
states. And the reason was she was
closer TO the hearts of the people.

NOW THE FAIR.

Much hard and intelligent labor has
been necessary to prepare for the peo-
pie of this section the excellent Fair
which opens it's gates tomorrow morn
ing. This service has been given will
ingly by the public-spirited gentlemen
who are at the head of the enterprise,
and that their work have been we'll
done is evidenced by appearances at
the grounds and the character of the
exhibits and entertainments that have
been provided. Beyond all question the
Fair will prove one of the best ever
held in this part of the country; which
is saying great deal. for in time past
we have had some exceptionally fine
shows of the kind here.
While the Fair will prove a great
drawing card during the whole time of
its continuance, and many people from
neighboring counties will visit and en-
joy it, yet the fact remains that to in
sure to 1t the success it deserves there
must be liberal patronage on the part
of the people of the city. 1t should,
and doubtless will, be to them a matter
OF local pride to see the en-
terprise moves smoothly and re-
suits profitably. The Fair was
undertaken, not for the bene-
fit of few individuals, but for that of
the city as a whole. Every citizen will
share either directly or indirectly in the
benefits that will flow from the Fair. 1t
will put into circulation a considerable
amount of new and extra money, which
will find its way into the hands of mer-
chants, hotel keepers and others who
are employers, and thus eventually into
the hands of employees. 1t will stimu-
late outside interest in the city of Sa-
vannah, causing our visiting friends to
think well of us and come to see us
blooded horses with the progressiveness
Of the section and the desirability of
establishing a Southern circuit, with
Savannah as one of the important
points on it. 1t will stimulate agricul-
ture in this section, something that is
needed in Chatham county. by showing
the great variety of products and ex-
cellent crops that can be grown here.
There are other points that might be
mentioned as an inducement to the
people of the city to give the Fair lib
eral patronage, but the foregoing
should be sufficient. 1t is their fair,
and each of them should feel personal
pride in 1t and work for it's most graf
flying success,

Rudolf Won Gottschall. the German
poet and writer, has been endowed
with an annuity of 1900 marks by the
city of Leipsic. The general opinion
is that this pension, following hard
upon that given the novelist, Baron
Won Liliencron, is indicative of a
growing tendency in Germany to en-
courage able writers of small incomes.
Raphael Schuster Woldan. the eele-
brated mural painter of Munich, has

attempted to heat the building with
wood, the smoke from which destroyed
the sight of one of Mrs. Higginson's
