Weak Nerves, Poor Diges-

Depressed Spirits.

The sun has just crossed the equator
on its yearly trip north. The real
equator is shifted toward the north
nearly eighteen miles every day.
With the return of the sun comes the
bodily ills peculiar to spring. With
one person the nerves are weak; anoth-
err person, digestion poor; with others
the blood is out of order; and still 9th
ers have depressed spirits and tired
feeling.
All these things are especially true
of those who have been suffering with

FOOTBALL COLORS FLOAT
AT 1ST. RECT. ARMORY.

For the last three years every time
the Savannah football team has played
game the blue and white flag has
fioated from the flag staff of the First
Regiment Armory
Sergt. f. E. O'Lynn, post quarter
master sergeant, sees to the matter
personally, and is proud of the fact
that though the colors are beginning
to show the effects Of age and weather
there has never yet been the occa-
sion to haul them down or half
mast them, as the token of defeat to
the team.
They will float at the top Of the
staff, 120 feet from the ground, again
christmas, while the Savannah eleven
patties with Charleston, and by noting
their position at the end of the game
savannah rooters will be able to tell
how the battle ends.

IMMENSE INTEREST MANIFESTED
HERE IN GAME AT JACKSONVILLE
LEANS FELL HEAVILY
BEFORE THE FATS.

In the presence of a large crowd at
the Y. NJ. c. A. gymnasium last
night, the Leans lowered their fiaunt-
ing pennant to the mighty Fats. The
fierce onslaughts of the Fats proved
too much for the lanky boys, and II
to IA tells the sad story.
In the early stage Of the game it ap-
peared that the boys of great avoirdu-
pois would have a regular cake walk,
but in the fifth inning the Leans dom
ned their batting clothes and placed
q few in the gallery. This had a very
SOLDERING effect on the Fats, and from
then on it was any ones game.
The feature of the game was the
heavy batting of Harden. Although at
the bat only five times, he raped the
lanky twirler, Smith, for three two
base hits and one single.
The line up was as follows:

are here, are that there will be neither
tariff legislation nor an extra session.
Reciprocity Talk.
Coupled with tariff legislation dis
cussion is the subject of reciprocity
A number of proposed reciprocity treat
les have been. and still are reposing in
the pigeon holes of the Senate. Dur
ing the coming three months there
may be some talk about these treaties,
but the indications are they will not
be seriously considered, So strong has
been the opposition to them that it has
never been considered worth while to
report them from the Committee on
Foreign Relations to which they were
referred.
There was considerable talk during
the last session of Congress concern
ing tariff revision and the suggestion
was made by several prominent lead
ers that any revision that was neces-
sary could be accomplished during the
short session of Congress, the idea be-
ing that revision would be on the lines
OF reduction and would meet with lit
tie or no opposition.
Opposition to Taxation.
If more revenue is needed and it is
found necessary to add some internal
revenue taxes, opposition may be more
pronounced. Revenue legislation of
any kind is sure to create considerable
talk in the Senate, and that means de-
lay. In fact, it has become known
that under present conditions legisla-
ton during the short session is enact
ed by practically unanimous consent.
Any half dozen senators who deter
mine to defeat a bill have the power to
do so. with the privilege of unlimited
debate. In the House the stringent
rules enable the majority to transact
all business it desires. and so far as
that body is concerned there is no
difficulty about any legislation that
may be attempted but if the leaders
do not want tariff revision or change
in the revenue laws nothing will be
done.
Railroads in the Philippines.
The unfinished business in the Sem
ate is a bill passed by the House pro-
viding for the construction of rail-
roads in the Philippine Islands by a
guarantee of per cent income upon
the money invested in such roads, The
bill also provides for issuing Philip
pine bonds for other internal improve
ments In the islands, and i'm several
other particulars amends the Philip
pine laws passed by Congress. The
bill met with a great deal of opposi-
ton during the last Congress, but SEN
ator Lodge, who has it in charge, says
that he will press it from the begin
ming of the session and hopes to Sc
cure its passage. The principal oppo-
sition was to the provision which guar
anteed an income TO the railroads, and
little objection was made to other fea-
lures of the bill. Another bill for the
Philippines, which has been urged by
Secretary Taft and the President, as
well as nearly every one interested in
the Philippines, provides for a material
reduction of the duty on sugar and
The Savannah morning news., 1904-12-03

pect that anything will be done. A
bill to amend the law for the safety
of employees of railroads has been re-
ported and it is expected that it will
pass.
A bill which has agitated Congress
for a number of years providing for
eight hours work only, on all govern
ment contracts, no doubt will be re-
ported from the Senate Committee on
Labor, which has given much time to
hearings. A bill of similar character
was lost in the last Congress by being
crowded out by other business. The
same fate may await this measure
should it be reported from the COM
mittee.
The Pure Food Bill.
Senator Hepburn, Of Idaho, has given
notice that he will call up the pure
food bill during the first week of the
session, and the friends of the measure
hope to have it passed. But there is
strong opposition which will take adj
vantage of the Senate rules to attempt
to defeat the measure by delay.
A measure which created great
deal of interest in the last session and
which no doubt will cause considerable
discussion if IL comes up again, is a
bill providing for several large camp
sites in different sections of the coun-
try, for the use of the regular army
and militia for drill purposes. The To-
calities most likely to get the sites
If the bill becomes a law are energeti-
cally pushing it to the front while dis
appointed rivals are opposing 1t.
A New Department building.
Senator Fairbanks, who has only
three months to serve as a senator be-
fore he becomes Vice President, and
who, as chairman of the Committee
on Public Buildings and Grounds, has
endeavored to secure bill providing
a building for the Departments Of
States, Justice and Commerce and La
Dor, will try to bring about favorable
action on the bill in the ninety days
he Is to remain a national legislator.
There are other public building bills
pending, but IL is not expected any
general omnibus bill viii be pushed at
this session.
Irrigation has become a permanent
legislative topic. interviewer closely
with the public land question II has
resulted IN setting two house commit
tees by the ears and creating a wide
difference Of opinion among senator's
from Western states. Several meas
ures intended az amendments to the
irrigation law have been suggested and
are before Congress. II the Western
men were united they no doubt could
secure some legislation. but being di-
vided Il is quite likely that nothing
viii be done.

1t is doubtful is there is as much in
