COLORS FOR CITY
COAT OF ARMS
And n Special Flag for the Munich
pnIity is Proposed.


pnIity is Proposed.
At the meeting of Council next We'd
nesday night a resolution will be pre-
scented for the appointment of a COM
mittee, with the Mayor as chairman,
for the selection of colors for the
coat-of-arms of the city of Savannah.
The committee will also be asked to
select a flag for the city.
The coat-of-arms of the city is well
known, having appeared on almost ev-
cry annual report made in the last tif-
ty years. The colors on the coat-of-
arms however, are unknown. The orig
inal resolution of Council, providing
for the adoption of the coat-of-arms,
says nothing about colors, and the rec
ords of the city government are silent
as regards the colors to be used in the
coat-of-arms. 1t has been used here
tofOre in plain black, though it was
known, of course, that colOrs should
have been used.
The committee, which is to be called
upon to select colors for the
coat-of-arms will also be called
upon to select a flag for the city. Here
to ore the United States flag has been
used on the City Exchange, but with
the progress and advancement that Sa-
vannah has made it is felt that the
city should have flag of it's own. The
committee will be appointed next We'd
nesday night and the selection of flag
and the colors for the coat-of-arms
will probably be made within a few
days after that time.

PLOUGH UP THE PATHS
IN CITY SQUARES.
This Might stop Cutting Across and
Save the Grass.

This Might stop Cutting Across and
Save the Grass.
It has been suggested that the paths
in the squares. where the grass has
been worn out by people cutting across,
be ploughed up and replanted with
grass. Where there is walk worn
through a grass plat. the temptation is
strong to take the short cut and use
It.
AS the ground has already in many
Of the squares been packed hard in
these paths. which should not exist,
the grass will not grow even should
the people stop using them. unless they
are ploughed, or thoroughly dug up.
Pedestrians would not use the short
cuts, while the ground was soft from
ploughing, and it is thought the habit
might be broken by the time the grass
grew up.
The police have strict orders TO make
cases against persons crossing the
squares. but the practice has not been
broken up. People will use tho reg
ular walks while in sight of an officer
and take the short cut. when he is not
on hand.

BICYCLE RACERS IN
EXCITING COLLISION.
Two Negro Boys Crashed Together
at Bull and Perry Streets.

Two Negro Boys Crashed Together
at Bull and Perry Streets.
A bicycle accident which was funny
in the extreme to look at, came very
near being serious yesterday morning,
when two negro boys engaged in a
dispute as to which could circle Chip
pewa Square in front of the Savannah
Theater. and attempted to settle the
dispute by a contest.
1t was agreed that the contestants
should make the circuit in opposite d.
rections. When the word was given
both dashed off around the square, one
starting to the east and one towards
the west. As both came into Perry
street they were pedalling for dear
life.
Both wanted the inside course, and
just as they reached the corner they
commenced zig-zagging to get out of
each others way. 1t was too late to
jump, so the wheels and riders went
together in a terrific collision. Both
boys lay on the ground until they were
picked up. They were badly stunned,
but both were able to ride off on their
wheels

FOUND ANOTHER
STOLEN BALLOT.
Name of "Gad ID. Bryan, Jr.," APP
peared on List of Voters.

Name of "Gad ID. Bryan, Jr.," Ap-
peared on List of Voters.
During his trip to Atlanta to find
who "stole' his ballot. Rev. A. NJ.
Williams ran across some rather in
teresting facts which he will state to
his congregation at Trinity Church to-
night.
The most startling information to be
disclosed by Rev. Mr.. Williams is that
one of the first names which greeted
his gaze as he glanced down the list
of those. who it was alleged voted in
the election here. was that of 'Gad
d. Bryan, Jr."
In view of the fact that the owner
of that name is confined in the coun-
ty Jail, and was confined at the time
Of the election. his having voted at
the Court House is regarded as ex-
traordinary, to say the least. So far
as the knowledge of the Jail author
tiles go, he did not leave his cell. They
state positively that they would have
known had he left.
Yet DIR. Williams contends that the
name was on the list of those who
voted, and so far he has been unable
to find any other person by that name
in Savannah. or any other name on
the registration books identical with
it.
According to the laws of the state
prisoner cannot be taken from pris-
on without an. order from the court,
under whose order he is held, and no
order was issued by Judge Cam for
an outing for Mr.. Bryan to give him
an opportunity to exercise his right of
suffrage. Sheriff Schwarz received no
such order.
Nevertheless Cad D. Bryan, Jr.,
voted for Gov. Terrell and the other
State House officers and Chatham
county officers, according to the sworn
report made to the State Department
at Atlanta

THE BIG TREES.

A WOndrOus and Awe-Inspiring Pro-
duct of Nature, Found Only In
California.
California's attractions are mostly of
its own kind, peculiar to the state, and
of none is this so emphatically true as
that unique product the Big Trees. The
age of these colossi is from $500 to
1000 years. The Mariposa Grove,
which can be visited while en- route to-
the Yosemite. contains some of the
largest. In the Calaveras Grove are
from ninety to one hundred of huge
size. Near Santa Cruz is a beautiful
grove of redwood Big Trees which will
we'll employ a days visit. These can
be best reached by the Union Pacific,

competitors.

SECRETARY SHAW
GETS AFTER Lind
TELLS CHICAGOANS WHY MINNIE.
APOLIs WANTS RECIPROCITY.
Says 1t Is Because thte Millers Want
"Cheap Canadian Wheat" to Enable
Them to Enlarge Their Mills-Ridi-
cules the Democrats "Quadriennial
Search for an Issue

Chicago, Feb. 13.-Secreta ry Shaw
attacked John Lind and Canadian rec
lprocity in speech before the Mar
quette club last night. In his opening
he ridiculed the democratic quad
renniai search for an issue" and then
said:
Inc democratic congressman who have
spoken in favor of Canadian reciprocity
know full well that the American people
will never consent to the only terms at
this time obtainable, and they are making
their speeches largely to cause unrest and
dissatisfaction in republican ranks. One
OF them represents the fifth district of
Minnesota, embracing Minneapolis, and
Minneapolis is supposed to favor free
trade in wheat with Canada. A promi-
nent politician Of that city recently ex-
planned to me their position. He said:
We have built our Touring mills as
large as possible unless we can have Can
adam wheat. We are now shipping high
priced wheat from Kansas and Oklahoma
Unless we can have the cheaper wheat of
Canada, we must cease to expand the in
dustry."
II the democratic congressman from that
district can create a local belief that his
party, if in power, would bring about this
result, doubtless he will be returned. The
argument would not be so popular, how
ever, in Kansas.
Old-Tlme Resolution.
If I were to advise the opposition I
should recommend the readoption of the
resolution passed in 1882 at the first dem
ocratic national convention. It reads as
follows: -"
Resolved That it be recommended to
the several delegations in this convention
that in place Of a general address from
this body, each delegation make such
declaration. by address, report or other
wise, to their prospective constituents Of
the objects, proceedings and result of this
meeting as it may deem expedient.''
Under that resolution the campaign can
be localized. The manufacturers of New
England can be promised free Jaw ma
terial and the producers of iron in Michi-
gan can be promised a protective tariff on
ore, and farmers Of the northwest tariff
on wool and hides. The nlillers Of Min
neapolis can be assured cheap wheat from
Kansas, and the farmers can he consoled
with the promise that their market shall
not be disturbed. The last democratic
state platform in Massachusetts, declaring
In favor Of the retention of the fourteenth
and fifteenth amendments, can be made
to do good service in New England; Mary
land can be carried ON the strength Of
recent utterances Of the democratic sem
ator from that state that the Caucasian
be made stronger than ever by rel.crating
the speeches Of its newly inaugurated Gov
ernor, that education demoralizes and
criminalizes the, negro. From this plat
form the disconnected everywhere coul.l
be appealed to in terms they will under
stand. High-priced wheat and high priced
cattle for the farmer, and cheap meat and
cheaper bread for the laborer, would no
longer possess a, seeming inconsistency.
