The* Ciirl*’ Aid Society Excursion.
The excursion to Tybee yesterday after
noon by the stearue* Dictator, under the
auspices of the Girls* Aid Society, was a
“big thing” in point of numbers. The
steamer left her wharf at half past three
o'clock, with decks and salgous crowded
with merry groups of ladies and children,
with their protectors and escorts, and after
a pleasant run reached Tybee about quarter
to live o?clock. The objective point with the
majority w as the Ocean House, at the south
end, and the cars op the tramway were soon
tilled. On reaching tne hotel, the excur
sionists proceeded to the pavilion and thence
to the magnificent beach, which was shortly
thronged with couples promenading and
strolling in different directions. Many
availed themselves of the opportunity to in
dulge in a surf bath, and bathing suits were
in demand. There was no music engaged
by the committee, which was a disappoint
ment to many, as it would certainly have
enlivened the occasion and added another
source of pleasure. The evening passed
enjoyably, however, and about
half - past seven preparations were
made for .a return to the steamer. Quite
a number walked back, preferring the stroll
on the beach to riding on the cars. It was,
however, half-past eight o’clock before all
were on board, and the steamer turned her
head homeward. The trip up was ren
dered pleasant by singing and social
converse, though many were so tired
that they sought repose and sub
sequently wooed the somnolent' god
on downy couches formed of life preservers.
The wharf was reached at quarter to eleven
o’clock, and as soon as the party disem
barked, the excursionists for the Snapper
Banks filled their places, and the good
steamer was again off.
The Excursion to Saptlo Red Suap-
per Ranks.
For some days past the excursion to the
Sapelo Red Snapper Banks has been the
general subject of conversation in certain
circles, and it was predicted that a large
crowd would avail themselves of the
chance for enjoying such rare sport as
'•hooking” the “bloody-red snapper.’ This
prediction proved true, as the fine steamer
Dictator left last night at quarter past
eleven o’clock with over one hundred and
twenty-five excursionists. Among them
were lawyers, doctors, merchants, clerks,
and gentlemen of leisure. They went pre
pared for a good time, and m g hope may
not be disappointed.
The Value of ail Advertisement.
The value of advertising can only be cal
culated by the circulation which an adver
tisement receives—low priced advertising is
not the cheapest. If a paper with a circu
lation of five thousand copies charges ten
dollars for a certain advertisement, and a
paper printing but one ream, that is four
hundred and eighty copies, charges only
three dollars for the same advertisement,
tlie ten dollar paper is the cheapest: for it
charges much less per hundred impressions
of the announcement than the three dollar
cheap paper does. Any shrewd advertiser
can make the calculation for himself.
A Xlilitary Festival.
The German Volunteers held a very en
thusiastic meeting last night and decided to
have a military festival some time within the
next three weeks, at which there will be
prize shooting, prize drilling, etc. A com
mittee was appointed to make the necessary
arrangements and with power to act This
will be one of the most brilliant anl suc
cessful affairs of the many entertainments
given by this company.

Tlie Weapon iw DIm harmed Acci
dentally and Cause* a Death.
About half-past four o’clock yesterday
afternoon a colored man by the name of
Tom Banks entered the store^of Meyer
Mendel, on the corner of Thunderbolt road
and Liberty street, and after purchasing a
few articles, lighted his pipe, and loitered
in the store. A few minutes afterwards
Marcus Hunter, a colored constable and a
cousin of Banks, came in, when a few words
were exchanged, and the parties be
gan to wrestle for fun. After scuffling
for a little while, Alexander Mendel, brother
to the proprietor and a clerk in the store,
picked up a large cheese knife, and, ad
dressing Banks, said: “You are a large
man, but I could chase you all around with
this.” Banks replied pleasantly that he had
no fear of such weapons, and would not
run from it. Young Mendel then opened
a show case and, taking therefrom a Smith
Wesson revolver, said: “Well, this
would make you run anyhow,” at the same
time slightly elevating it. Banks care
lessly rejoined: “No, it wouldn’t: I
am not afraid of that.” Hardly had the
words been uttered when the pistol was
accidentally discharged, and the unfortu
nate man fell to the ground. The ball had
struck him in the throat, near the jugular.
The blood spurted from the wound, and it
was evident that the man was seriously
wounded, but he retained consciousness long
enough, we understand, to say to young
Mendel that he knew something would hap
pen from the careless handling of the pistol.
He was at once removed to a comfortable
place in the house and physicians were sent
for. Meanwhile young Mendel proceeded
to the police barracks and delivered himself
into custody, giving an account of the unfor
tunate affair to the oificer on duty.
We saw Mr. Mendel last evening, and
learned from him the above facts. In
answer to an inquiry he stated positively
that he did not cock the pistol, and did not
know how it came to be discharged, as he
only had it in his hand a few seconds.
In a short time after the accident Drs. \V\
II. Elliott and T. J. Charlton arrived and
gave immediate attention to the wounded
man, but he was beyond surgical aid, and
about half-past sevea o’clock he died.
Coroner Chisholm was notified, and pro
ceeding to the residence empaueled a jury
and held an inquest, at which the following
testimony was elicited:
I)r. W. H. Elliott, being duly sworn, testi
fied : I saw Thomas Banks at seven o’clock
this afternoon in a state of collapse : there
was a pistol shot wound in the front of the
neck, a little to the right of the median line:
the symptoms were those of internal he aor-
rhage, which, I believe, was the cause of
death: in reply to a question, deceased
-dated to me that he was shot accidentally
by Aleck Mendel ; in reply to the direct
question, “Did he mean to do it V” Banks
said “No.”
Salina Banks, colored, testified: I know
nothing about the circumstances in this
case; about three years ago deceased
had some fuss with Mr. Mendel; he told me
that he had gotten something from him,
and has never paid him for it as I know of;
I have neyer seen deceased and Mr. Men
del together since that time; Mr. Mendel
kept store on Waters road at that time;
deceased got the things from Aleck Mendel.
Marcus Hunter, colored, testified : This
evening, between four and five o’clock, I
was passing by Aleck Mendel’s store;
stopped in the store, as I am in the habit of
doing ; met Tom Banks at the door: he and
I commenced playing; as soon as I got
through, he and Mr. Mend el began playing;
deceased rolled up his sleeve and began
boxing at Mr. Mendel; Mr. Mendel held his
guard agaiust Tom, and thpn walked off
from cim and went behind the Gounter ; he
started back from behind the counter; Tom
met him at the counter ; he told him he
was too big a man ; that fie could not box
with him ; in the meantime, he had his band
in the show case where the pistol was ; as he
held the pistol in bis hand, Tom said that he
was not afraid of a pistol; they were both
laughing at the time ; I was standing in the
door; as I turned my head, the pistol went
off ; as soon as I heard the report 1 turned
immediately; saw Tom lean his head on one
side; I said, “Thatman is shot:’’ Mr. Men
del dropped the pistol immediately and burst
out crying; went up to him and put his
hand on him and said, “Tom,you are shot ;
I am sorry for it; I did not do it inten
tionally;” sent me off for a doctor - there
did not seem to be any malice between them ;
I think it was a purely accidental occur
rence.
Jonas Mendel testified : I did not see the
commencement of the sparring; was up in
my room and came down in the store and
saw them sparring. I said to deceased,
laughing, “Tom, you are a strong man; if it
should corrje to close quarters, T would be
as good as you, benansp I could shoot.’'
About this time Aleck said, ‘‘Torn,” in 6
laughing way, “see hero, I have also got a
pistol.” In taking the pistol out of the
show case it went off immediately, and I am
of the opinion that the pistol has been lying
full cocked in the show case.
John Walker, colored, was also sworn and
examined, but his testimony contained no
additional information.
After considering the evidence before
them, the jury rendered the following
VERDICT :
“We the jury find thac Thomas Hand's,
colored, came to his death from a pistol
shot wound in the neck, inflicted by Aleck
Mendel, which we consider accidental.”

Tlie Trial* of the Tramp*.
The accommodation train on the Savannah
and Charleston Railroad, which arrived in
Charleston on Monday from Savannah, had
on board a negro tramp who had been pain
fully injured while stealing a ride near
Whitehall station. r Fhe negro was first seen
by the conductor at Y"emassee, and later in
the night, when the train arrived at Saltke-
b§tchie ; he wag found riding on tfie bumpers
betweenTwo freight tars near the locomo
tive. He was driven off, and walked on
ahead. When the train was nearing White
hall station one of the train hands heard a
groaning in a ditch by the side of the track,
and when the train stopped the tramp was
found lying by the side of the road with one
of his arras badly mashed, the bone having
been fractured between tlie shoulder and the
elbow. It is presumed that the negro, after
being driven off, jumped on the train again,
sitting on the bumpers. When he felt the
train slacking speed he attempted to jump
off, and had his arm crushed between two
of the cars. The Sews and Courier says that
“shorth* after arriving at the hospital the
negro died before an operation could M per
formed. A Coroner’s jury was summoned,
and the case was adjourned over until Mon-
daj* next. The deceased was named Daniel
Nesbit, was twenty years of age, and was a
native of this city. He had been on a visit
to Beaufort, and* while endeavoring to get
back home lost his life in the manner de-*
scribed.”

Stronger tfcaa any Yeast or Baking P cwder
in the World, and Perfectly Pure.
SEA FOAM
Is warranted to make better, lighter,
healthier, sweeter, more toothsome,
more digestible, more nutritious
BREAD. BISCUITS, CAKES.
PUDDINGS, Etc.
THAN CAN BE MADE IN ANY
OTHER WAY.
SEA FOAM is an entirely new inven
tion, without any of the bad qualities of yeast
or baking powders, soda, or saleraius.
SEA FOAM contains no ingredient or
element which can produce an injurious effect,
but on the contrary has in itself a tendency to
sustain and nourish the human svstem. It is
ABSOLUTELY PURE
Not infrequently the best of flour gets all the
blame, when in reality the dark color and poor
taste are both caused by the use of inferior
raising powder. Many baking powders now
highly recommended by grocers, and henco
largely sold, are made of old bones ground up,
and by a chemical proeess mixed with other
ingredienti. Before lending their influence to
increase the sale of any baking powder, grocers
would do well to ascertain the reputation and
standing of its manufacturers. They would
thus avoid becoming instrumental in perpe
trating a fraud on their customers, and would
m the long run make more money. Of course
no honest mar. would knowingly lend himself
to such a fraud upon his customers, and It is
very poor policy for any grocer to attempt to
palm off infbrior goods when the best are
asked ft>r. He may by so doing make a little
money at the time, but he surely will at some
time, if the fraud is discovered, lose one of his
best customers, and with him a score qI others
who might otherwise hav$ ut?ali with him.
A merchant’s wises* policy Is to secure the best
customers, «$nd they are just the ones who
want the best goods. SEA FOAJI
WITHOUT AN EQUAL
It is pnq»areci from the purest and best materi
als only, and is never under any circum
stances adulterated. There is no longer any
excuse for sou*, heavy, or sodden bread, bis
cuit, or pastry. Every housewife hi the land
should make herself acquainted with the fkets
we have stated, which are indisputable, and
she will *oon ascertain that most of the yeast
prcqtanulons now being sold are anything
else but what they profess to b<\ ftnd that
this is the main reason why so large a propor
tion of the bread Consumed by the masses of
the community is unhcalthfu). Invalids are
especially interested In this question of yeast,
and ought to keep constantly in mind the im-
poitant fact that their dietary should at all
Haies )>e the best, and that under the most
tavorablo circumstances they can not hope to
regain health and strength unless their food is
tlie most healthful and nutritious that can be
obtained. Good food makes good blood, and
the nerve force is strengthened or impaired in
proportion as the food we eat Is nutritious or
Otherwise.
SEA FOAM rs worthy of a fair trial, and
tho.) U ail .ve ask for it.
No qne having once used it will ever use any
V.fher preparation In the baking powder line,
hut will at once and forever banish from the
house the various crude mixtures and bogus
preparations in the form of yeast that have so
long and so persistently tended to destroy
health by imperfectly perfuming the require
ments they prof^seu to fulfill.
FOAM retains in all their excel
lence the nutritious properties and natural
taste of the various cereal preparations of food,
while in bread raised hY ordinary means
there is very frouuently great loss of their
^OtliSkUMO and palatable qualities,
Ot ail baking or yeast powders. Sea Foam
Is beyond dispute tlie
BEST-IN THE WORLD
Give it £ tri^l, aud you will concede that we
offered you the means to make poor
flour muoh better than when used under
ordinary conditions, while good flour will be

render good bread t^4A.tially the stair or life.

putels and restaurants in New Y'ork city and
