THE AUCI'STA SOUTHERN. Four Places Linder Water Through the heavy Downpour. Tbr officials of the Augusta Southern were in a great state of mind yester day owing to four washouts along ttao line. While Augusta and Immediate vicinity have had some little rein re ccntlr. the downpour has been ateadier and m ire eoplous in other sections and the railroads have all suffered, more or less, from the same. On the Augusta Southern the Arst place that had suffered was Just this side of Wrens; the second was between Wrens and Stapleton; the next was Just beyond Stapleton, and the fourth washout wag Just this side of Avery. Th 're was no attempt to run trains yesterday and everything was disar ringed. Receiver Jackson and the loadmaster went down the line last night with a force of men and It Is steted that by sundown oil! repairs will have been completed. Th? train due in Augusta this morn ing at 9 o'clock arrived at noon and It is reported that there is quite a tie up ct Tennlile. Mr. Charles Jackson told the reporter that information received this merning !fd him to believe that matters *vere not in as bad shape as was feared last night, and to several Inquiring passen gers he said that trains would go out on schedule time, would be run very THE RIVER IS STILL RISIH6 Carrying Death and Destruction With it, But Wicker & Pilcher’s price on Staple and Fancy Groceries is stiil getting lower, so the most needy may be supplied with the neces saries of life at very small cost.

It I* no wonder that i ahe now occupie# a moat enviable nodal position in Newport. That ahe will con tinue to hold It in New Yotk thi* »'*- 1 son follow* an a natural consequence. L*>nn than three yearn ago Mr*. Palmer went to Newport and wan content to live without cat' ntatlon at a small villa rented for that season. Neither wan the second neason at Newport a brilliant auccesn, but when the Palmers announced their Ini ntlon to build one of the handsomest houses In that city considerable Interest was aroused. It Is said that the Palmers negotiated for Marble House, whleh In owned by Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont, but this report has not been verified, for the Palmers leased the home of Theo dore A. Havemeyer, one of the show places of the city. As hostess of Frledltelm, with an enormous retinue of servants and un limited wealth, Miss Julia Grant as guest and the advent of the two princes Mrs. Palmer has been able to make her Invitations sought for and has changed the complexion of the social counten ance. Her first royal visitor was Prince Al bert of Belgium, heir and nephew to the king of the Belgians, and the other no less a personage than the count of Turin, a near relative to King Humbert. Each, in turn, were of course veritable lions in Newport society. The woman who entertained them became a power v.hcse gracious Invitations were sought. Other titled foreigners and many of them have visited Newport this season, have In their turn been entertained by Mrs. Palmer. By birth and education Mrs. Potter Palmer Is admirably fitted td become a great social luminary. The Palmers, it is said, intend to build a home this fall. Before her marriage, Mrs. Palmer was Miss Bertha Honore, of Louisville, Ky., and her family occupies - a high social position In that city. In 1871 she was married to Potter Palmer of Chi cago. Her sister, Mrs. Frederick D. Grant, is well known in New York. Cross Country Riding Club. A delightful ride was enjoyed last night by the Cross Country Riding Club and a few invited friends who filled carriages and buggies. The meet was held in front of Dr. Barbot's residence In Woodlawn. The riders then follow ed the Mllledgevllle road, riding be yond the County Home, up Richmond, Hill, and back to the agricultural Club, where a delightful and informal feast was served on long tables ligbte.d by will gy#% - r t Inn ftft'ftwf t*ft b# I fw«aa ## fa#* 1 It area tnilatflii ®#f*## iNr r 4bfrf#M «i tftetf ®«ftft* m arft ft*#.

Now most women, under similar clrcumstnneea, would have ut tered a few genuine shrieks and then sought saftry In the garrei. but this one pons* sard more then the ordinary | degree of genuine courage. Khe sum moned the man servant, told him to | get Ih* gun, call the dog and station himself at a convenient distance. Torn she clambered half way up stairs and commenced to punch the flour t-arrel wllh a pole. Presently the mouse made Hs appearance and started across the floor. The dog at once went In pursuit. | The man fired and the dog dropped dead; the lady, thinking that she was killed and fearing thal he would be arrested for murder, dlsapp ored. and has not been seen since. The mouse escaped ■ The Country Fair The time Of the rountiy filr ap proaches. City sojourners within reach of these festive gatherings will find a j new sensalbn In vlslllfig them. The ciowda of country people to whom Ihe ; affair Is the event of the year, and, even the rural character of the ex- I hlldts, will be found full of mnteilal for the student of men and manners. It Is a graceful act for the summer col ony to suggest and h-lp carry out a flower show In aid at some local char tty. All the gardens of the neighbor hood will be rifted for the oceaslon. Booths may tie opened for the sale of fanry articles on which the plaxzn con tingent has been busy all the summer. A concert or private theatricals may close the festivities, and It will not be Strange If the summer people find that they have been the recipients of ns much enjoyment as tha rural popula tion. A noonllght Ride. The younger set will enjoy a ride out to Mr. Josh Doughty's place tonight. Miss Julia Carmieael has returned from Madison.- Miss Annie Wright ia expected from Atlanta Monday. A number of frl nds were entertained charmingly entertained by Miss Ce eile Durban. Mrs. Coates and family of Macon have returned home after a visit to her father, Mr. Estes. Miss Marlon Carlton of Athens, who has been the guest for several weeks of Miss Carroll and Miss Jackson, will leave Monday for Union Point. Do you eat? Try the Ellis Restaurant.
