have never seen a lynching and would

"You must think that we put them

“Dcn’t you? Why we thought we
would have seen one before now. When

her rd up lu Michigan that you people
have them often. When do you think
'there will be one?"
“Why. there Is nothing to lynch any
one about." *
"Is that necessary?”
"Of course. Bo you think people
or? lynched for nothing?"
"Well, we don’t know, but we would
cf i trlnly like to see one. We expect
ed <ve would surely see one when we
were told that we were going into

there will be one Saturday night?"

Bank*, the famous New York teacher,
says of her: "She has bee* to n»e a
most satlafaetocy pupil." and again.
"A most charming and unique feature
of her repertoire consists of hlrd tone
recitations. In this particular she Is
one of my best pupils."
Anna Randall Diehl, president of the
Fortnightly Shakespeare Club, says:
"Her genuine talent, fresh, sparkling
and of a high order; her lieunty and
charming manner*, combine In assur
ing for, her the highest artistic suc-
I teas."
Miss Wood* comes before us for the
Hrat time since she graduated at the
New England Conservatory', and that
elore speaks of her ability, having
studied under Slg. Rotoll. Miss Woods'
voice Is a true, rich, round soprano,
full of magnetism. Seldom has so
highly a trained voice come lieforc an
Augusta audience.
Mr. Battle, whom you have heard,
and will be delighted to hear again,
has consented to sing, and the mala
quartette, consisting of Messrs. Sto
vall. Battle, Russell and Wallace,
though having not been heard often,
as yet, will give a pleasing number.
Among the many press notices we copy
the following:
“When Miss Badger closed her re
cital lest evening the universal verdk't
was, she. Is a sweeping success.' For
attractiveness of person, grace cf man
ner, and faithful delineation of cliarac
ter, she Is almost unequaled. Her con
ceptions of charaoter are perfect and
her acting worthy of the most finished
stag? queens. We were especially
struck by her graceful motions. Sue 1
suppleness Is wonderful. She gave a
recitation In which she introduced the
beautiful bird tores. This rare fea
ture has never before been taught here
and few, if any other, Southern schools
have It. Miss Badger’s style Is some
thing like that of Susane Dorrity, who
so took Jackson hearts by storm when
Leary, the corneflM. was here. The
Intense heat and large crowd caused
Miss Badger to omit her only heavy
piece, one of Shakespeare’s trial scenes
of Queen Catherine, Henry VII. We
look forward with great anticipation
to hrr appearance again, us wv so-1

NIC A RAGLAN CANAL.
■ Major liar «ic?' Speech Before the

I <llw-umtuß of the Isthmus ranats. la
ibi* connection the addre** of Major
i George T Da rot a before Gw state leg
islature Thursday night ta very np-
I pro pc*.
I We republish from the Atlanta Juur
juai the following account of Major
j Humes' addraaa. Major Barnes point
ed out that the Nicaraguan route was
I tot* mitral long, of which MMi miles
Is lake navigation, 64M navigation
through the enlarged Han Juan river
and 31 miles la navigation through ba
jelns, the Dateado and (too Francisco,
!,mi Hie eastern side of the lake, and
(the Tola basin on the western side of
j the lake, leaving about 27 miles of
I actual canal to he excavated.
The Journal article Is a* follows:
Hou. George T. Barnes, of Augusta,
ox-congressman from the Tenth dis
trict. delivered an able addreas to the
| general assembly last night on the Nic
arngt'an canal.
Hoo. W. A. Dodson, president of
the senate, called the Joint session to
order, and In the most complimentary
terms Introduced the distinguished
Georgian.
President Dodson reviewed the ca
reer of Mr. Barnes and referred to him
as a man of deep learning and research
who had given close study to ell na
tional subjects, and Itatl come In re
sponse to an Invitation from the gen
eral assembly to enlighten the mem
bers on the great canal question.
Mr. Bernes began by saying that
the Nicaraguan canal was destined to
affect the people of the world socially,
morally, politically and commercially
I mote than anything else since the dls-
I,.ovary cf America. He referred to
I Columbus' various voyages to tills
hemtsphers, saying thai Columbus was
I endeavoring to And a short cut to tn
-1 dia. The great discoverer sought, to
I find a way from the Caribbean sea
' through a strait he thought was to be
! found in Central America to what be
'believed was the ludlan ocean on the
other side.
; What Columbus sought four hundred
! years ago, ihe speaker eald, is now
the object of those win would have
j the Nicarageun eana! constructed. The
! various routes which have been pro
loosed for a canal were mentioned, pur
j tlcular attention being paid to the Pan
! nma canal project. The Nicaraguan
! t unai plan was declared to be unques-
I tionably the best cf all.
I The estimates of the eo»t to complete
Ithe work, It was explained, varied
from $05.0011 ;000 to about twice that
: sum, but It was generally agreed that.
It would not go over $100,000,000. The
Income from the canal would be a very
large one. be said, and the investment
would lw a profitable one
The work done by Ike Maritime Ca
nal Company, which was organised 10
construct this canal, wa* reviewed.
Mr. Barm* said that from ISM 10 IIWS j
that compnay had *peni about $5.«K>.- j

well spent The bill now pending in j

After showing that Ihe scheme wa* j
feasible and practical. Mr. Bnra«* de- •
voted bl* attention to the important
of the canal, especially to the people
of the South.
He Mid It would double the strength
, f ifce foiled States naval force* in 1
time of war.
It would bring New York nearer
than Liverpool by from 2.two to u.oun j
miles, to Japan. Korea, Nort|j China
Australia, aud all the west coast cf
North and South America. It will ;
bring New Orleans and the gulf ports
700 to 1.000 mile* nearer Ihe Pacific
point* than New York. It would upeu
all the ports of the PaclAc to the cot- I
ton of the South, and the rheop coal
of the Mississippi valley; nnd the mar- I
krt* of the East, and not Liverpool,
would dictate the price of cotton.
The Nicaragua canal would have it 1
great advantage over the Sue* canal,
and the Caribbean sea would be to the ;
new hemisphere what the Medlterran- j
ean has been to the old.
The dlseoorsc was received with |
marked attention, and was roundly ap- j
plauded. At the conclusion, on the I
motion of Representative Copeland, of
Walker, a vote of thanks was unani
mously tendered Mr. Barnes for his el
oquent and Instructive address.
