HAT COMPANY WILL MOVE
INTO LARGER QUARTERS.

The Southern Hat Company has pur-
chased the buildings, Nos. 121 and 123
Congress street, west, from baltimore
& Bond. The company is at present
occupying the building across the
street, but owing to its increase in
business since incorporation on Oct. /
it has been found advisable to move
to larger quarters.
The rapid growth of the company
speaks well for the growing Importance
of Savannah as jobbing point, for
although it has been in business only
three months. it has travelling men in
Georg ia, Florida, South Carolina, North
Carolina and Alabama. The company
will occupy it's new building about Jan.
/, but before moving into it, it Will
be thoroughly repaired, and put in
modern shape, lighted by electricity
and steam heated.
The lower floor of the building VIII
be used as offices and sample rooms,
and it is the intention of Mr.. j. j.
Lewis, the president, to make his sam
pie rooms as well appointed and COM
nodious as those of the large Eastern
manufacturers. The company has been
handicapped for want of space, but as
the new building will be considerably
larger than the old one. the concern
will add line of trunks, valises and
umbrellas to its line of merchandise.
Mr.. Lewis intends to make it the larg-
est house of it's kind south of Balti-
more, he says.

doctrines taught by the church.
The last sermon and instructions.
conducted by Rev. Fathers Huntington
and Hughson, were held at the usual
hour last night There was large

ton by all into their daily lives.
After the early service this morning
Rev. Father Huntington will leave for
Sewanee. Rev. Father Hughson will

To increase the substantial gifts an
admission fee of one potato will be
