CONDENSED STORIES.
Some Ecclesiastical Promotions That
Were Won by Puns.

Were Won by Puns.
Canon Melville, who died the 9TH
er day in his ninety-second year,
owed his earliest promotion to a
pun, affirms Tay Pays Weekly.
When the late Earl of Dudley, who
knew Mr.. Melville sufficiently to re-
member that his Christian name
was David, had living at his dis
posal he received a letter containing
only the words, lord, remember
David" The earPs reply was no
less terse and Scriptural, "Thou art
the man.
Perhaps the earliest instance OF
ecclesiastical promotion won by a
pun is that of curate named Jo-
seph, who was prompted by Swift
to take this text for sermon
preached in St. Patrick's cathedral,
Dublin, before the viceroy "But-
ler," the Duke Of Ormond: "Yet did
not the chief butler remember 10
seph, but forgat him."
Rev. DR.. Mountain, who was the
son of a beggar, owed nearly every
step of his successive promotions in
great part to his Righteousness and
won the last step of all by a single
jest. When he was consulted, as
bishop of Durham, by George H.
as to the fittest person to fill the
vacant archiepiscopal see of York
he replied, ''Sir, hadst thou faith
as a grain of mustard seed thou
wouldst say to this Mountain (dra-
matically striking his breast), BE
thou removed and cast into this sea
(see).'" That George II. should Sc
understand and appreciate the joke
as to accept its suggestion is per-
haps the strangest part of the story

Spring-Most FHvorabIy Impressed
with Opening For Hotel and Have
Been Negotiating for Site Mt BUN
and state streets Since.
A handsome hotel building to cost
several hundred thousand dollars
at the northwest corner of
State and Bull streets is almost assur-
ed for the near future.
Information reached the city yester-
day that the Chicago Construction and
Equipment Company of Chicago has
announced the completion of its plans
to build hotels in Savannah, Winning
ton. Charlotte and Montgomery.
Representatives of the company were
in Savannah in the early part of the
spring, and as the site at Bull and
State streets was the one they then
preferred, and began negotiations for,
it is believed that it will be on
this property the new building VIII
stand.
No one was found yesterday
who could discus sthe matter; that is to
say whether the deal for the site had
been closed, or what the amount of the
capital that will be invested in the pro-
posed hotel is. But it is known that
the Chicago concern has a large cap
ital, that it has made a careful inves-
tigation of the conditions of the South
relative to the building of hotel prop
erty. and that its agents were partic-
ularly impressed with the opening Of
fered by Savannah
The site believed to have been secured
is unquestionably one of the best
in the city for a hotel, which is
shown by the fact that almost every
plan that has been originated for such
a building here in recent years has had
in view this site. 1t would be render
ed even more valuable should the plan
recently agitated for a plaza to extend
from State street to President street,
ever become successful.
The addition of another first class ho-
tel TO Savannah il an advantage to this
city that is obvious. 1t will mean not
only an increase in tourist trade in
the winter. but may help materially
also in the bringing to the city of many
large conventions with the resultant
benefits of additional business in all
classes of trade, and the equally great
advantage of advertising Savannah all
over the country.

LAST OF THE STANDS

Owner who Defied City Marshal Had
Changed His Mind.

The last of the stands that had been
erected on West Broad street has been
moved.
City Marshal Dreeson had been de-
fed by one of the bootblacks, when
die told them all to move within TWEEN
ty-fOur hours.
The twenty-four hours expired yes
terday and the city marshal marched
down West Broad with determination
written all over his round, rosy face
There would have been something do
ing if there had been any stand in
sight. The marshal had made up his
mind to give the citizens an exhibit
ton of how to demolish a bootblack
stand in a hurry
But when he arrived on the scene.
there was no stand in sight For a
time, Mai Dreeson thought he must
be on the wrong corner but a care
full inspection showed him he was
right. The bootblack had changed his

UNFEELING OFFICER
C0RRALED DANIEL
Negro Had just Started Up in the
Plumbing Business.

An independent effort to set up in
business for himself got Dan Butler,
colored, into the clutches of the police
yesterday. The negro was engaged by
MI. w. w. Swinton to do some plumb
ing work.
Realizing the limitations of those who
work for other people, the negro gath
cred together a package of brass fau-
Gets and other material, and bravely
faced a cold and calculating world as
exemplified by pawn broker.
After leaving a sufficient number of
faucets with his uncle to start him
also in the plumbing business. the ne
gro gathered up the rest of his kit and
sailed forth again. Many waving ex-
periences were met with by Dan in the
course of his days journey. but the
saddest part occurred when ne shades
of evening were approaching.
1t was then that Detective Murphy
struck a red hot trail lined with brass
faucets, and the doom of Daniel was
sounded. With some of the goods yet
in his possession the prisoner was
brought to the station house. This
morning he will tell the Recorder how
easy it is to do business on borrowed
capital.

SHOWER THAT PLEASED
CAME UNHERALDED.

Helped n Little.

Lasted Only Fourteen Minutes, But
Helped n Little.
Unheralded by peals of thunder or
flashes of lightning, and while Old Sol
was nodding behind cloud in the west
preparing to settle down to a nights
res, rain made it appea' arce yesterday.
1t was a shower and lasted just four
teen minutes, according to the man in
the weather bureau. 1t didn't amount
to much and didn't help the truck
much but it was thankfully received.
1t was evidence of the fact that there
is still such thing as rain.
Indeed the weather man intimated
last night that the shower was but the
visiting card of the rain that is to
come. There may be another visiting
card to-day, but it is certain to really
rain some time soon.
During the entire month there has
been less than an inch of rain, or to
take the official figures, 73-100 of an
inch. 1t wasn't even that much un-
til the fourteen minute precipitation of
1-100 of an inch yesterday.
The late afternoon shower busted the
trees and grass, and drenched automo-
bilisits and pedestrians, but no fur
Their damage was done. Twenty min
utes after it was all over the sand
streets gave no evidence of the fact
that drop of rain had fallen. The
dust had only been temporarily set
tied and the nostrils of the people
temporarily pleased.
But the fact remains that it rained,
and that the weather man had said it
would, which goes to show that Uncle
Sans officials and the rainmaking ap-
paratus above are still on speaking
terms.

Electric Company Does Not Fear
Interference, However.
In order that these who are fond OF
souvenirs may not avail themselves of
splendid opportunity to add TO their
collections, the Savannah Electric
Company is guarding its property on
Gxmnett street, between Abercorn anil
Hahersham.
During the day, as we'll as at night,
Waterman is being kept on duty. Man.
ager Nash explains that it is not be-
cause the electric company suspects for
an instant that the property owners
on the street v ould be rude enough to
Interfere with tie material that the
company is unfortunate enough 10 nave
exposed to the elements.
But then it is further explained that
in these strenuous times, with inJunc-
ticns falling over each other, cor
poration cannot be too careful. As
Manager Nash himself said, on occa-
sions like this people say all sorts OF
things, and it is possible to hear al
most anything
Some friend of the company might
be mean enough to take spike or two,
or "A few feet of rail, or pull down
pole, or Confiscate one or two crossties.
And then, as Ma 1ager Nash said In
discussing the subject Incharitable
people might be hold enough TO sug'
gest that such a 'horrid' thing had
been done by those who didn't want
the material in front OF their MONIES.

HOW TO GET RICH.
Lesson 5. Chapter L.


Those who ride on the A. and B.
street cars south of Thirty-frst street
doubtless notice that there are several
tracts of vacant land and a number
of odd lots not built upon. and those
who do not know the facts probably
think those vacant properties are, evil
dence of a surplusage of real estate in
Savannah. Each of those almost va
cant blocks between Bull and Barnard
streets has house on it, but there will
the owners have taken the property off
the market. Those lots of thirty-feet
front would easily sell on an average
of $1,000 a piece; but not a lot can be
bought because the holders are of the
opinion that real estate is a good in
vestment, and its increase in value
from year to year pays better interest
than any investment they can make
Nearly all the odd lots you see are held
by parties who expect to build homes
for themselves upon them as soon as
they finish paying for the real estate
Those who are advised as to the real
estate market know that there are no
cheap lots where people of moderate
means formerly looked for them. Those
$500 to $500 lots that were to be had
in and around the localities mentioned
two to five years since have gone for
ever. If you want cheap lots you must
go elsewhere, and If you don't hurry
and get your lots, there is no saying
how far you viii have to go to get a
cheap lot. Your opportunity is now;
invest in a 5000 to $500 lot somewhere.
You can get them at these prices on
Thirty-ninth street. east, and pay for
them by the month. If Thirty-ninth
street, east, doesn't suit your ideas,
buy a lot on some other street.-ad.

Police Give Their Evidence TO the
City Attorney.
The police have not been officially
informed of the decision of the city at
torney in regard to the pawnbrokers,
but following the publication of the
opinion yesterday morning, evidence
was gathered in a particular case and
submitted to Col Garrard. The letter,
which the superintendent of police sent,
was short, but to the point.
1t stated that Sam Blumenthal had
on May Is, 1904, received from H. Wi
linsky ten cases of shoes, pawned for
800. Col. Garrard is asked to say
whether or not that is sufficient evil
dence to make a case on.
Until the police saw the statement
from Mayor Myers in the Morning
News it was not known that Col. Gar
rard had decided the matter. In order
to get something official to go on, the
special case was submitted to Col. Gar
rard for an answer. On the answer
will depend whether a number of cases
are to be made.
