Men Employed on improvements
Are Again Pushing Work.
All difficulties with the men employ
ed on the Savannah Theater were set
tied yesterday morning by the contrac-
tors and all the men were back at
work as usual.
In speaking of the strike, Mr.. Chris
Murphy, who is in charge of the en-
tire work, said: THE difference was
so small as to be rather humorous
than serious. When l found out the
trouble it was instantly attended to.
There is not the slightest friction now.
and no time has been lost.
THE work is being pushed with the
same vigor as from the beginning and
the public can feel assured that the
improvements will be completed on
schedule time. The interior will be
greatly beautified for the coming sea-
son and the theatergoers will be
pleased, / think"

PRACTICALLY NO CHANGE
IN MEAT SITUATION
Plenty of MCnt on Hand Here and
More Is Expected.


There was little if any change in the
meat situation yesterday.
The Western meat is still up, but in
most cases the native product is being
sold at the same prices as before the
packing house strike was started. The
butchers all think they will get
through the strike all right.
There is still quite a supply of West
ern meat on hand and the packing
houses say more is expected. The ma
tive meat can be secured in almost
any quantity desired, so there is no
danger at all Of a shortage here. The
butchers are having to pay a good
deal more for their Western meats
than formerly, which accounts for the
Increase in the retail prices.
The butchers are hoping that the
strike viii be settled soon. Not that
they fear there will be a shortage in
meat. but the increased price and the
excitement over the strike hurts their
trade.

PRAYER AT START;
FRICTION AT END
BARRIERS AGREED TO CLOSE.
FORTY SAY THEY WILL PROSE-

bnth-EiEht Against Thirty-TwO
for Sunday Opening.
After a very lively meeting, which
began with a prayer, forty of the
Savannah BARRIERS last night signed an
agreement to close their shops on sun
days, though eight of that number
fought bitterly against the Sunday
closing.
The eight finally gave in, however
to the other thirty-two The forty
BARRIERS represented about thirty shops
though only about fourteen proprietors
were present. The forty have
agreed to prosecute any one who keeps
his shop open on Sundays.
Though the meeting came very neal
breaking up in confusion, it was OPP
ened with prayer by Barber Haber-
sham, one of the old time negro bar
bers of the city. From the very start
there were eight opposed to the Sun
day closing. The discussion waxed
very warm for time and it looked
like no agreement could be reached.
They Agreed TO Prosecute.
The point was at last made that
unless all the BARRIERS agreed on the
question, there could be prosecutions
in the state court. With this club
over the eight they were finally beat
en- into line. though it took about two
hours to do so. After signing the
agreement sudden adjournment alone
prevented friction.
The meeting was held at J. A. Stein
mans place, on West Broad street.
The meeting was the largest the bar
bers have ever held, Steinman said.
Under the agreement signed, these
forty-two BARRIERS not only agreed not
10 work after midnight on Saturday,
and not to open on Sunday at all,
but also agreed to prosecute any one
who did not do the same.

meeting will be called for next
Tuesday night at the same place, when
a union of the BARRIERS will be form
ed.
There are over a hundred barber
shops in the city, so at the meeting
last night there We're less than ii
per cent. of the shops in the city rep
resented by the proprietors. 1t is not
thought that all the shops not rep
resented at last nights meeting will
be willing to abide by the decision
of the forty.
But the forty declare they are going
to prosecute any one who does open
on Sunday and say further that the
shops will be watched to see that
they are closed. There will probably
be something doing next Sunday, or
certainly the Sunday after, when the
union will be in working order. Then
the committee will go out to get up
evidence for the prosecution.

APPEAL MAY NOT
CARRY ENTIRE CASE.
Very Fine Point in Question In
Gwinnett Street Matter.


Gwinnett Street Matter.
The attorneys for the Savannah
Electric Company are determined to
appeal from the decision of Judge
Speer in the Gwinnett street case,
which he recently decided in favor of
the property owners on the street.
Whether the case can be appealed
at this particular time is a close point.
The attorneys, however. say an APP
peal can and will be taken.
1t is not thought by many that the
entire case can be appealed until aft
er the final hearing before Judge
Speer. 1t is contended, though, that
the decision can be appealed. If this
last be true there would still have
to be a final hearing before Judge
Speer, no matter how the court decid-
ed to appeal from his decision.

The Window \vas,Ier.

Just as | finished the City Sawmill
item l noticed a window washer ON
the outside of another building.
He was cleaning the windows of
the fifth floor and he had no appli.
ances for his safety, such as straps or
ropes and hooks with rings in the
casing.
He certainly has nerve to do this,
but nerve without appliances is safer
than appliances without nerve.
While visiting farmer he took me
TO two trees to show me how light.
ming came down one tree to near the
ground. then went clear through the
big trunk Of the other tree lust like
O cannon ball.
Soon after this that same farmer
lost his big barn by fire and the fire
was reported due to lightning and a
broken lightning rod: therefore Is not
broken rod worse than no rod? III

that it Is in good shape. But does

Finish what you are
at before you let it get
away from YOU.

A publisher of weekly religious
newspaper told me that one of the
most useful habits he had formed is
to finish what you are at while you
are at Incomplete it while 1t is up,
II possible, SO that it will be forever
done.
A general manager recently told me
that he was helped by the way an
express agent-station agent-telegraph
operation at little town held his
three positions after the town got a
boom and grew into a big business
center. This agent was the only one
IN the boom territory towns that held
his job.
The way he did it was to keep COO,
and never let letter or order out of
his hand until attended to. Some PEG.
pie do their best when they have to
crowd hours into minutes and some
others do their worst, as in one case
an order filler was a reliable worker
on two hundred orders a day. but
when he tried to do three hundred or.
ders a day he went to pieces and,
fumbled.
In some kinds of work when orders
are slow or business is dull, poor work
is done. Only when things are
hustling is the work done as 1t should
be. Exercises will help both condi.
tons. Poor work during dull spells
is due to lack of mental exercises.
and poor work during rush times is
due to low vitality and should he
overcome by physical exercises.
The manager who told me about the
station agent also told me about his
own work, which frequently came to
him in way to prevent closing up a
subject while he had 1t up, and he
claimed that he was irritable on &C.
count of 1t.
Resourcefulness, which enables one
to influence for better methods the
beginners of poor methods, Is in de-
mand. and obtainable. Irritation is a
signal to be up and doing something
to counterfeit 1t.
There are liquid colors which are
able to saturate human body
through and through. There are in
dividualities which will benefit all
who are in any way connected with
the firm and all customers of the firm.
This individuality can be analyzed
and cultivated If thoroughly desired.
