CLEANINO DAY RESULTS.
City Scavenger Honnlhan Not Through
(lathering lip All Oarhage
The Civic League cleaning day that
was last Wednesday haa proved o
kind of nightmare to City Scavenger
llonlha*.
The scavenger Is a quick worker and
as good as they make ’em In the way
of stieet rleansets. hut the way the
people of this town plied out their de
bris on him last Wednesday haa kept
him and his force of extra hands as
busy as so many bees ever eltice and
they are not through yel gathering up
the old barrel staves, pieces of boxes,
old shoes and the hundred odd other
things that were hunted up from dark
corners nnd put on the streets.
The regular force that Mr. Monlhan
keeps busy is ten wagons and a like
number of men. but since cleaning day
ho haß had no less than thirty men at
work.
Mr. Monlhan says that July and Au
gust ore the busiest months In the year
with him. and the Civic League agi
tation coming when It did made the
work tenfold more.
People who never nut trash out be
fore did so last Wednesday, says the
scavenger, and one fellow. In bis seal to
clean up his plare, went to rutting the
grass off, and. by mistake, dug up his
garden seed.
It Is not expected that the next
cleaning day will cause so much work,
as the city has been well cleaned and
there will not be as much work to do.
Remember, do not lose patience with
the scavenger. If he does not remove all
the garbage Instanter. There’s a lot of
It still on the street, but old boxes and
barrel staves compose the nature of It.

The nxsoclatlon broug..t many well
known men here, but In those days of
no Ij’ceums. Augusta waa always spo
ken of as a graveyard for lecturer*,
and the receipts did not amount to very
much, so In order to save expense*,
the lecturers were entertained by ench
member of the association In turn. It
was not Dr. Garvln’a time to entertain
and the great man was not expected,
and so the young ladies of the boose
were thrown into quite a flutler of ex
citement by the sudden appearance, one
cool winter evening, of the great Eng
lishman. who had been brought In by
the master of the house for an Informal
visit.
One of the young ladies declares her
delighted excitement was so great that
she was 100 breathless to acknowledge
her introduction. She was soon suf
ficiently at ease, however, lo note ev
erything said and done by their distin
guished guest, and the othpr afternoon
in hrr shadowy parlor, where the heat
and glare of the August world outside
never dares to penetrate, she told of
the visit in her delightful way. The
lion did not care to be llooixed. It was
evident, she said, for he was reserved
and cold, even beyond the reserve and
coldness habitual with the typical John
Bull. All the brilliant conversation of
the gifted host and the bright talk of
his young daughters failed to thaw out
the lev manner of the tall, dignified
Englishman, with the iron-gray hair,
rather flat nose and steely eyes. It
was with a sigh of relief that his en
tertainers saw Thackeray leave, but the
relief was speedily changed to anxiety
when they learned that Die Garvin had
hospitnbly asked him to tea the next
evening. Probably with the idea of
the early English tea In mind. Thack
eray arrived at the house several hours
before he was (expected and before tils
host was prepared to see him, so again
the daughters wore called upon to en
tertain him, and again they found the
task a hopeless one. He was observ
ant to n.n almost miraculous degree, ab
solutely' nothing said or done seemed
to escape him, but tie was entirely un
responsive.
Finally, he heard the children playing
in the next room and begged to listen
to their chatter, expressing his great
fondness for children, and saying
quaintly "I do not keep little boys.”
This was a relief to h’.s girl hostesses,
whose embarrassment had become un
endurable through the unexpected visit
of an old lady, who did not catch, in
tho introduction, the world-renowned
name, and who persisted in entertain
ing the whole company with detailed
