THE OPERA.
••Martha” by the Hess Company—A
ttplentlid Perform ant e.
Elotow’s beautiful opera “Martha' vs as
given an excellent interpretation by the
Hess Company last night. The Theatre
was crowded to its fullest capacity, and
hardly a seat was vacant in the whole
house. The audience was one of the most
brilliant of the season, and was a gratify
ing compliment to the well-known
worth of the company. The interest of
this opera, as in the others, principally
centered in Miss Carrington, whose sing
ing last night was superior to her former
efforts of the engagement, either in
“Faust” or “Fra Diavolo.” The opera
“Martha,” in which she assumes the title
r<de. affords excellent opportunities lor
the display of her pure, sweet voice. Her
rendering of the song. “The Last Rose
of Summer,” was a triumph, and
was greeted with round after
round of applause. In response,
she repeated the song and was again ap
plauded. Miss Carrington achieved a
proud success last night, and was twice
called before the curtain. 1 The presenta
tion was made with good support, in
which Miss Eisner as “Nancv, ‘"'J*
Messrs. IVakes and Appleby as “Plunket
and-Lionel,” appeared with fine musical
effect.
The engagement will close to-night with
Balfe’s romantic opera in four acts, en

IMPORTANT DECISION.
A llravy .Judgment Against the City on
Savannah, Albany and Gulf Railroad
Bonds.
The Supreme Court yesterday affirmed
the decision of Justice Woods in the Uni
ted States Circuit Court, in this city, in
the two oases of Kelly and Martin versus
the Mayor and Aldermen of Savannah.
The suits were instituted upon certain
coupon bonds of the Savannah, Albany
and Gulf Railway Company, which bear
the indorsed guaranty of the Mayor and
Aldermen of the city of Savannah. The
defendant sought to recover from the
guarantors the amount due on tiie bonds.
In the court below the city set up the
defense that the guaranty was made with
out consideration, and without any legal
authority, and was therefore void. The
court, however, instructed the jury that
the evidence, if credible,, showed that
there was a valid consideration, and that
the bonds guaranteed were issued for
purposes of internal improvement within
the meaning of the city’s charter. Under
these instructions the jury found a ver
dict for the bondholder, and judgmeut was
entered accordingly.
This decision, as affirmed, fixes the liu
bilitv of the city at atiout $450,000. The
bondholders were represented bv Capt.
Geo. A. Mercer, and Gen. A. R. Lawton
and Judge W. 8. Chisholm appeared on
behalf of tlie city.
The Orphans' Benefit—Opening of the
Catholic Fair.
The Orphans’ Fair was inaugurated last
evening at the Catholic Library Hall
under very favorable auspices. The at
tendance was large. and, judging by last
night’s work, together with the interest
which i- lieing manifested on all sides, it
will be a flattering success. The hall pre
sents an agreeable scene. Around the
room are placed the various tables, dress
ed tastefully and laden with numerous
and handsome articles. The first table to
the right is presided over by Mrs. J. J.
McDonough and Miss Annie Robinson:
next is the orphans’ table, superintended
bv Mrs. A. M. O’Donoghue: Mrs.
Connolly’s table is next in order;
crossing the hall are three
more tables in charge of Mrs. J. B. Read
and Mrs. Henry Blun. At the eastern
end of the room, on a raised platform, is
the supper table, also in charge of Mrs.
J. B. Read and Mrs. Henry ltlun. It may
net be amiss to state that the ladies will
furnish an elegant supper every evening
during the continuance of the fair, and at
reasonable charges. It is inconvenient
to describe the beautiAil decorations of
the various tables, and the flower stand,
which was gracefully presided over last
night. During the continuance of the
fair the hall will be open daily from 3 p.
m. to 11 p. m.
A Bare Entertainment.
A fine audience greeted Mr. Edward
Fabian at Armory Hall last evening. Mr.
Fabian opened w ith the song “Thy Senti
nel Am I,” and “Forever and Forever” in
such splendid style as to call forth an
encore. Kuckeu’s “Goodnight, Farewell,”
which, given as the encore, was a mag
nificent treat, showed Mr. Fabian’s won
derful voice to tine advantage. His rich
and highlv cultivated bass seemed to have
been created for this song. In his read
ings Mr. Fabian is hardly excelled, and
rivaled but by few. and *his versatility is
something wonderful, as was demon
strated bv bis programme.
“Paul 'Revere’s Ride” was given w ith
that intensity of feeling that can only be
gi\cn by one who has the truest concep
tion of dramatic effect.
The humor of J. G. Saxe was thorough
lv exposed bv Mr. Fabian in “Pyramus
and Thislie,” and showed his wonderful
adaptability to anything in reading.
-The Beils” were truly heard in Mr.
Fabian’s votes, and. while the poem has
lieen frequently heard, we have never
heard it read as it w as last night.
Our citizens are offered an opportunity
of hearing one of the finest elocutionists
and singers that has ever appeared here,
and should not fail to be present Wednes
day and Friday evenings.

Sudden Death of a Colored Musician.
\ esterday afternoon Charles 11. Geary,
colored, the w ell known base drummer of
the Savannah Volunteer Guards Band,
while parading with that organization
and the Forest City Light Infantry
was taken ill, and on the arrival
of the command at the Park
extension was placed in a wagon and
driven towards his home, No. 29 Charlton
street. Soon after he was placed in the
wagon someone remarked that he was
dead, whereupon the sick man raised
himself up showing that he was still
alive. When the vehicle reached the vi
cinitv of Abercorn and Gaston streets it
was discovered that the unfortunate man
was lifeless. -
Coroner Sheftall was notified of the
occurrence and an inquest was held. It
was ascertained that death resulted from
apoplexy, the jury in their verdict at
tributing the decease to providential
causes.
Gearv was in the employ of James 11.
Johnston. No. 92 Bay street, as porter,
and was regarded as a faithful employe.
Herrmann the Wizard King.
Professor Herrmann, the wonderful
illusionist, with a company of specialists,
will give an exhibition at the Theatre to
morrow and Thursday nights. The
York Sun says:
“Hernnan’s new entertainment, which
is crowding Ni bio's Garden to its utmost
capacity, is undoubtedly the most enjoya
ble of any of the many attractions now in
New York. The Professor’s spirit cabi
net far surpasses anvthing of the kind
ever shown by the Davenport or Eddy-
Brothers. The specialty artists who sup
plement the exhibition of prestidigitation
are notable for their excellence, and af
ford an opportunity for the fashionable
world of the great 'metropolis to enjoy a
stvie of performance peculiarly popular,
but which is generally given without its
precincts. That it was keenly relished
was made manifest by the frequent ap
plause.”

Savannah, Ga., March 28, 1883. |
If on, Rufus F. Lester, Mayor:
In accordance with vour instructions I have
this day examined tlie lands known as the
McConnell tract and those adjoining on the
west, known as Mr. Clay's, with reference to
their dry culture condition.
Tlie embankments of tlie McConnell tract on
front river and next tlie rice planters’ canal
exclude the tides, but leak badly in many
places, so that the ditches contain a good deal
of water. On back river tlie embankments
are in bad order, lieing overflowed in many
places during spring tides. The ditches have
received little or no attention since the storm
of 1881, and are grown up with‘weeds, and
always contain more or less water, the qitau
titv varying with the weather and tides.
The tract of Mr. Clay’s under dry culture
appears to receive no attention whatever, and
is fast growing up in young trees and brush.
The embankments on" the river front nearest
the city are overflowed at every spring tide,
and the trunks in bad order.
Very respectfully,
John B. Howard,
City Surveyor.
The report was received and the following
resolution adopted:
By Alderman Thomas—
Resolved, That the Committee on Dry Cul
ture be requested to have proper notice’ served
on Dr. J. J. Waring, tlie representative of es
tate of C. F. Stubbs and Jos. Clay, to have
their lands on Hutchinson Island drained in
accordance with the Dry Culture contract,
and uiion their failure to do. so within time
specified in such contracts, that said commit
tee cause such work to be none at owner's ex
pense.
No further business, on motion. Council ad
journed. Frank E. Rebarer,

Square Dealing.
In appealing to public confidence we
would lay special emphasis upon the fact
that we rely rather upon the sincerity of
our promises and the quality of our goods
than upon “catchy” advertising for our
success. We never make statements in
print that we are not prepared to “back
up” with facts in the store, and the people
are fast learning that the expression,
“only an advertisement,” does not apply
to the “Famous" New York Clothing
House. We are old-fashioned in only one
tiling, namely: a rigid adherence to down
right honest methods of dealing. It is
only to this plan we owe our permanent
success. Those who would like to see one
of the largest exhibitions of Clothing for
spring, at prices decidedly lower than
elsewhere, should visit the “Famous,”

The Harkness Case.
Editor Morning Xerrs: A paragraph in
the Sunday Telegram of Sunday last is
calculated to mislead the public as to the
mind of the jury in this case.
The testimony, as I understood it, was
that Harkness was in possession of a
forged deed upon which he had obtained
money from the Pulaski Loan Associa
tion, and the charge against him was not
forgery, but uttering as true a forged
deed. " Secondly, the deed was in his own
handwriting. Thirdly, David R.
Dillon, whose name was forged
to the deed, testified that
there had never been any contract
or understanding whatever with Hark
ness to give rise to the existence of such a
paper. Fourthly, that he had seen Hark
ness in New York city three times during
the past year—in the spring, in the sum
mer and in the fall —and not one word
was said in reference to the purchase of
the lots covered by the deed. Fifthly,
Colonel Win. Garrard testified that when
Harkness approached him to obtain money
from the Pulaski Loan Association he
stated that he had exchanged lands
with Dillon for these lots. And
sixthly, the mother of Harkness, on
the witness stand, stated that he had left
here with his wife for New York city
somewhere from the 15th to the 20th of
last August, which must have placed him
in New York on or about the 21st of Au
gust, the day of the date of the forced
deed. Indeed, Harkness admitted himself
in his statement that he was in New York
in August.
The forgery was doubtless committed
in New York, and Harkness may have
had an agent or confidante in the person
of “Chalmers,” but as forgery was not
the charge against him, I was, and am
still, unable to see, in the face of the testi
mony on the side of the State, how the
lugging in of Chalmers could help the de
fense: and it affords me some satisfaction
to know that three others.were thoroughly
of the same mind as myself—and not
“ eleven for acquittal,” as stated in the
Telegram. Oku of the Juby.

At a meeting of the students of St. Vincent
College the following resolutions were passed:
Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God to
take from our midst a dear companion and
talented classmate, Robert J. Ward, of Sa
vannah, Ga.; therefore, be it
Resotred, That we humbly submit to the
holy will of Divine Providence, whilst ex
pressing our heartfelt sorrow for the death of
a ilearlv beloved fellow-student, and,
Rtsolred , That we tender our sincere sympa
thy to his father and relatives in their sad be
reavement, and
Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be
sent to his allticted father and that they be
likewise published in the Savannah Morning
News.

Committee.
Robert J. Ward, the subject of this notice,
was bora in Manchester, England, December
6, 1863. March 21, 1882, he was sent to St.
Vincent College, Pa., by his father, James R.
Ward, a most respected citizen of Savannah.
On iiis arrival lie entered the commercial
course, and soon distinguished himself by a
quick perception and diligent application to
his studies. He was a general favorite with
his fellow students—genial, open hearted and
the soul of honor, llis superiors and profes
sors alwavs found him docile and anxious to
improve his opportunities. All looked for
ward to a career of success and honor,
when, alas! lie contracted a severe cold
which resulted in a fatal inflammation of the
lungs. Day and night the hand of kindly re
lief and sympathy attended his every want,
well knowing that the solicitude of’ absent
friends, far away in the sunny South, lingered
about his bedside. 11c gradually grew worse,
and his dread disease baffled t he skill of three
eminent physicians, who spared no pains to
save a life so dear to all. The last sad, but
consoling, rites of the Catholic Church were
received with every mark of Christian resig
nation to God’s will. Thus fortified, he calmly
expired at 8:35 on the morning of March 2f,
the reverend President of the college at his
bedside.
Mr. Janies R. Ward arrived at the college
Thursday morning. The father's intense sor
row and bereavement cast a deener gloom on
those who for fourteen years had not mourn
ed the death of a student. At 1:80 p. in. the
dirge resounded over the collage grounds,
and a sad procession accompanied the dead
companion in his departure from the
scene of so many joyful hours. God’s
will be done! The memory of our whole
souled Southern schoolmate'will long linger
in our minds. No more fitting words than
those of the South’s gifted poet-priest eau
close these lines of sympathy and respect:
“And for my dead, my Father, may l pray?
Ah, sighs may soothe, but prayer shall soothe
me more!
I keep eternal watch above his clay—
Oh. rest his souf my Father, I implore!”
