considered in ascertaining the dam-,

for his estate in the premises.
5. Under the rulings r.bove made,
the only question to be determined in
a subsequent trial of the ease will be
what compensation shall be paid to
the plaintiffs for the interest of the re
mainderman in the property. Direc
t’.cn Is therefore given that this single
!r, S ue may be submitted to a Jury, and
when the amount Is. thus ascertained
that a decree be entered auihorixing
the defendant, within a reasonable
time to be fixed by the decree
to pay to the plaintiffs the amount of
the verdict, and that upon payment of
the same the Interest cf the plaintiffs
pass to the railway company. Upon a
failure of the company to pay the
amount.of the verdict within the time
fixed by the decree, their right to
purchase the property should be de
creed to have been lost, and a writ of
possession should issue authorising the
sheriff to place the plaintiffs in posses
sion under the judgment in ejectment
already rendered in the rase.
Judgment on main bill of exceptions
reversed, with direction; on cross-bill
affirmed.

iihat caught the crowd. I pou their ar-
I rival in Atlanta. Ihey happened to run
I against Totonel VV. J. Bryan at the
head of hi* Nebraska regiment on the
way to Jacksonville and the colonel
mourning a granite block on the slde
wnlk made them a short speech which
waa rrc -iveri with vociferous applause.
After listening to the nomine* for
the presidency, the Augusta veterans
marched out to se* the governor, at
the executive mansion and he made
them stack arms anil conu? in.
When bed time arrived the Augusta
camps found the floor of a large build
ing covered with abou seventy mat
tresses, all neatly arranged for them
and it wns not long before the old boys
were tn the land of dreams, again tak
ing part In the stirring scenes of thlry
ty odd years ago.
The Atlanta papers, in their ac
counts of the parade, all gave the palm
to our camps, the Constitution giving
n particularly elaborate resume of
■ Maj. Withers' command, while the
Journal commented ojy length upon
Capt- Butcher's. '
Maj. Wither* requests Th? Herald to
correct an error regarding the piY-sont
atlon of the flag or banner in Atlanta.
The flag was not presented alone to
Camp 435. but to tbe Georgia division,
and Company A was chosen as
honorary escort fer tbo bannier.
Capt. J. Rice Smith made a particu
larly happy and felicitous response in
accepting the flag. It is understood
that Governor Atkinson will shortly
fcrwnrd the charter for the camp as a
home qtiard organization and it will be
supplied, with brcech-loadlng guns.
All of the returned soldiers and citi
zens are unanimous in their opinions
and expressions of the great success of
the reunion, and nil praise Atlanta and
her citizens for the complete manner
In which they planned and carried out
the various details connected with the
annual meeting.
An added impetus and vigor has
been given to this annual meeting of
the old soldier boys of the South by the
very happy celebration in Atlanta and
each and everyone looks forward to
the reunion of '99 in Char’.eston—and
may their ranks be still compact end
full at the end of th-” twelvemonth—
with eagerness and pleasure.

cause they are advertisement* at your

therne.* 5 R wasonl fe
of prizes l ots of people offer prizes, most of which are in- Lvf
significant and the object in view is of no particular mental F^
benefit to the contestants. Our motives were aimed higher. k^
Letters received by us were of all sorts, short and Ion?, w4<
grave and gav, some very funny, some learned. From the F^
lot we got many advertising ideas, some of which were ex
cellent.'some ,-uggestlng valuable points about display type,
illustrations and arrangement of matter.
Taking it all in ail this contest has been a grand success. hT
