Tlie ••May” Wins the Race—At Tybee
and Schuetzen Park—The Artillerymen
at Rose Ilbu.
The observance of the Fourth of July
as a general holiday was more universal
in Savannah yesterday than in any pre
vious year since the close of the war.
During the forenoon the stores and busi
ness houses in the lower part of the city
were open, but later in the day there was
a general cessation of business, and by
half past 2 o’clock scarcely any stores
were open, the streets were deserted
and dull, and everything presented a
more than Sunday aspect. The morning
opened clear and bright. The heat was
not great, and a cool breeze prevailed dur
ing the entire day. There were indica
tions of a holiday everywhere. The flags
on the public buildings and Morning
News office were flung to the breeze, and
the colors on the shipping along the river
floated from the masts.
THE PARADE OK THE REGIMENT.
The dav was ushered in by a demon
stration of the First Regiment of Georgia
Volunteers. At 6:30 o’clock the several
companies assembled at the rendezvous
on South Broad street, where the regiment
formed under command of Colonel C. TV.
Anderson. The colors of the Irish Jasper
Greens were recognized as the regimental
colors. The turn out was not large.
The held and start' paraded dis
mounted. After the formation the line of
march was taken up down Whitaker to
Bay, down Bay to Drayton, out Drayton
to Monterey square, where the command
was halted and drawn up on the east side
of the Pulaski monument and
THE SALUTE
was fired in honor of the day. Three
rounds were given and the firing was by
companies, by wing and battalion. After
the salute tlie command was reformed
atul marched down Bull street to South
Broad and was dismissed. The parade
; was over by eight o’clock.
THE CADETS PRIZE CONTEST.
After the parade'by the regiment the
I Savannah Cadets were turned over by
, Captain Branch to Lieutenant Mell, and
marched to Concordia Park, where lunch
was served and the annual prize shooting
contest took place. The company was di
vided into four classes. The firing was
five rounds at 200 yards, Creedmoor tar
get. and resulted as follows:
In the first class, the prize, the com
pany gold medal and an elegant silver
water pitcher, was won by Sergeant R. P.
Lovell, on a score of 20. The first prize
j was won last year by Sergeant Lovell on
! a score of 17.
In the second class, the prize, a hand
i some jewel casket, was won by Private
! W. J. Thompson, on a score of 17,
In the third class, an elegant heavy
i ring, was won by Private Workman—
| score 18.
In the fourth class, the prize a silk
umbrella, was won by Private Sheftall,
having made, next to Sargeant Lovell, the
highest score of the contest— 19.
At the conclusion of the contest the
J company marched to their armory,
1 stacked arms and the members were dis
i missed, to spend the remainder o( the day
as they were inclined.
THE MONTGOMERY REGATTA.
That Montgomery is the popular su
burban resort with the masses was fully
j demonstrated yesterday. The throng
which crowded the undulating sward in
1 front ot the picturesque hotel was vari
] ously estimated at from two to three
thousand people. From 10 o’clock
1 every outward train bore from the city
its full plethora of pleasure seekers, anil
the scene at the suburban depot was as
varying in its incidents as the revolving
roll" of the most extensive panorama.
; Several attractions were booked as the
| magnets to draw the throng. First among
; these was the fourth ot July regatta of the
I Savannah Yacht Club, an organization
■ whose name is a simile for hospitality.
| That the race would prove interesting
was made a foregone conclusion by the
list of entries, which was as follows:
“Flirt,” entered by Vice Commodore H.
N. Tucker, Charleston j length 29 feet 7
inches.
"Au Revoir,” entered by Captain W,
T. Porcher; length 27 feet.
“May,” entered by T. P. Bond; length
g.l feet 0 inches.
“Xanoni," entered by J. W. Schley:
length 24 feet 9 inches.
“JennieS,” entered by R. M. Demere;
length 24 feet 7 inches.
“Zinga,” entered by John 11. Dews;
length 24 feet ti inches.
“Wave,” entered by F. C. Wyllv; length
21 feet 10 inches.
“Idler," entered by A. L. Hartridge;
length 18 feed 9 inches,
“Meta,” entered by S. McA. White;
length 18feet 9 inches."
“Uncus.” entered by H. C. Claghoru:
length 19 feet 2 inches.
All the preliminaries hav itig been con
cluded the boats finally made a start, the
“Xanoni” first crossing the line at 28 min
utes and 23 seconds past 12 o’clock. The
••Flirt" followed at 12:28:23, and the
“Zinga” and “Meta” dashed past on a
line at 12:28:51. At 12:29:29 the “May”
crossed the line and started on her cruise.
The “Idler” went by at 12:30:13; the “Au
Revoir” at 12:30:53; the “Wave” at
12:31:13; the “Uncas” at 12:32:55, and the
“Jennie S” at 12:35:30.
The breeze was blowing stifllv from the
southeast, and the fleet lacked almost in
a bunch until the turning buoy, five miles
from the start, was reached. The
“May” was the first to make the
turn, swinging round at 1:28:45.
Four and three-quarter minutes later
the “Xanoni" took the wind for
home. The “Zinga" made the turn at lj
-33:55; the "Flirt” at 1:34; the "Jennie 8.” j
at 1:36:15; the “Au Revoir” at 1:38:45;
the “Meta” at 1:38:52; the “Wave” at
1:39:30.
Weatukh
The “Uncas” and “Idler” were next
around in the order named, but their
time was not taken. It was the opinion
ot the judges that the prettiest turn was
made by the "Wave,” the next best by
the “Jennie S,” and the third by the
••Flirt.” As the fleet unfurled their bal
loon jibs and topsails and sped before the
wind the sight was one calculated to
lend a twinkle to the eye of the most
ancient mariner. The boats dashed for
the home turn almost in a string,
the “May” lieing the first to
enter upon the last ten miles
of the race at ten minutes past 2 o’clock.
Four and a half minutes later the
"Zanoni” again headed for the five-mile
buoy, followed two and a quarter minutes
later by the “Zinga.” At 2:17:30 the
“Jennie S” made the turn, followed by
the “Flirt" at 2:18:65, the “Wave” at
2:19:25. and the “Meta” at 2:24;20, The
time of the other boats was let go by de
fault.
The crafts of the fleet again flew for the
five-mile buoy almost in a bunch, the
“May” being "the first to start down the
last quarter, at 8:47:20.* The “Jennie S”
headed for her final rush for home at four
minutes past 4 o’clock, followed at 4:08:45
by the “Zinga,”lat 4:10:13 by the “Zanoni,”
at 4:14:52 by the “Au Revoir,” and at
4:20:48 by the “Flirt.” The time of the
other boats was not taken by the time
keepers. Though it was questionless that
the “May” had the race the other
yaehtmen raised every stitch of canvas,
and let their crafts plough through the
water at their prettiest speed. The “May,”
the winner ortho race, crossed the line
at 4:19:45 o’clock. Her actual time was
3 hours 50 minutes and 16• seconds, and her
corrected time 3 hours 42 minutes and 6
seconds. The “Jennie 8.,” the second
boat in the race, crossed the line at 4:36:01
Her actual time was 4:00:31, and her
corrected time 8 hours 60 minutes and 31
seconds. The “Zinga” was third, finishing
at 4:41:53. Her actual time was 4:13:02,
and her corrected time 4:02:52.
The fourth boat in, was the “Zanoni,”
crossing tlie line at 4:42:05, in the actual
time of 4:13:45, and the corrected time of
4:04:05.
The “Au Revoir” crossed the line at 43
minutes and 3 seeonds after 4, being the
filth of the fleet. Her actual time was
4:17:15, and her corrected time 4:12:05.
The sixth boat covering the course was
the “W ave,” her hour of finishing being at
1 minute and 3 seconds past 5 o’clock.
Her aetual time for the 20 miles of the
course was 4 hours 29 minutes and 55
seconds. The allowances made her time
4 hours 14 minutes and 25 seconds.
The seventh "boat in the line was the
“Meta,” her hour of arrival being s}£ min
utes past 5 o’clock. Her actual time was
4 hours 3d minutes and 42 seconds—the al
lowances, however, which gave her her
place making the corrected time 4 hours
15 minutes and 2 seconds. The “Flirt”
crossed the line at 4:54:50. Her actual
time was 4:20:27. ami the corrected time
4 hours 20 minutes and 27 seconds.
The “Idler” and the “Uncas” were so far
in the rear that their time was not re
corded. Owing to the failure to fill in the
second class the “Uncas” was allowed to
sail with the first-class yachts, with al
lowances. The prize ot SIOO was, of
course, awarded to the “May.”
So day could possibly have been more
propitious for the regatta, and the mem
bers of the club generally yoted it one of
the most successful ever sailed over the
course.
Messrs. John S. Coburn and Joseph A,
Roberts acted as timers, while Messrs.
C, M. Cunningham and J. N. Johnson
were the starters. Vice Commodore
Thomas 8. AUaype made it pleasant for
those aboard the tug, while Commodore
Hone looked after the interests ashore.
The Sailing Committee were Messrs. M.
T. Henderson, A. L. Hartridge and Sidney
Goodwin. Under the eyes of such hos
pitable committees Use affair could not be
other than a success.
At a meeting of the club held iminedi
ately after the race to take action an a
communication from J. K. Munnerlyn,
Esq., asking whether the club would take
charge of the pilot race to be sailed off
Tybee July 11, it was decided to do so,
provided one member of the yacht club
sail in every rilot boat.
In addition to the yacht race not a little
interest and amusement attached to a tub
race, in which Julian Hartridge carried
.iff the prize, $5 in gold, and the tub in
which he made the voyage. Master Hart
ridge represented the “Idler,” and was
the onlv one who did not capsize. The
other entries included Masters Frederick
Baker, in the “Jennie 8,” Joseph Bond,
in the “Mar.” Edward Richmond, in the
“Wave.” Mai Bacon, in the “Commodore
Hone,” Frederick Mallory, in the "Mag
gie,” and Cecil Strobhar. in the “Etta.”
S. G. Fergerson won two out of three
heats in the sack race after a contest
which caused not a little laughter among
the spectators. There were ten entries.
The music on the bluff was furnished
by the Blues' band, and that in the pa
vilion by a string band, of which a large
number of the lovers of Terpsichore took
advantage.
A colored mimic and various other
amusements diverted the attention and
furnished amusement for the throng,
many ot whom did not leave the scene of
the festivities until a late hour.
THE CHATHAM® AT ROSE DHU.
The Chatham Artillery were out in
their usual force to celebrate the day at
Major Bertody’s place, at Rose Dhu.
Owing to the non-arrival of their ammu
nition. they did not use their rifle guns,
but confined themselves to a contest be
tween the different classes with tlie
Springfield rifle. The shooting was at
200 yards, and was exciting and close,
Private Preston Cunningham winning the
prize, in the lirst-class, on a score
of 39. Private A. W. Harmon won in the
second class, his score being 35, and Pri
vate Butler Cooper winning in the third
class on a score ot 32. The new Gatling was
brought into action and proved a success,
the shooting by this weapon being very
effective. About forty cartridges were
placed in the “hopper” and the crank be
ing turned every ball was planted in the
target within a radius of about three feet.
The target was placed three hundred
yards from the shooting point. Altogether
the day was spent in an enjoyable man
ner to "the Chathams, and the most of the
company returned to the eitv by six
o’clock. Tfte prizes wore handsome
silver match box in the first class; a gold
scarf pin in the second class, and a set of
gold shirt studs in the third class.
EXCURSIONISTS TO TYBEE.
The excursion of the Wesley Monumen
tal Church to Tybee yesterdey wgs at
tended by large numbers. The day was
cool and inviting at the beach and the
bathing was delightful. The steamer was
crowded at both trips, and those who spent
the day there spent it enjoy ably. The ex
cursionists returned at 10 p, m,
AT THE SCHUETZEN PARR
The dav was enjoyably spent by a large
numtier of people, about four hundred
being present. Messrs. .J. R. and
George Meyer, lessees of the park, gave a
picnic to their friends, including the mem
bers of the Schuetzen Gesellschaft, the
German Volunteers and tlie Werner Hook
and Ladder Company, Dancing was the
principal amusement, and was began at it
o’clock in the afternoon and kept up until
10:30 last night. Soon after its conclusion
the last car left, and the picnickers reluct
antly returned to the city.
Every arrangement was complete.
Chinese lanterns were hung in the pavil
ion, and at dark huge bonfires were lighted
on the lawn, and the scene was an at
tractive one. Many availed themselves
! of the bathing, and a highly enjoyable day
was spent by all,
THE GREEN ABOVE THE RED.
The “Freshmen” Walk Away with tlie
Favorites to the Tune of Twenty-three
to Seven.
As predicted in yesterday's News, a
large crowd assembled to witness the
seventh game for the State championship
between the Dixies and the Forest Citys,
The former were the favorites, even after
it was ascertained that their catcher
could not take part; but the “revised
nine'' of tlie Forest Citys was a revela
tion, and their backers are smiling with
the same smile as they did under adverse
circumstances. For the Dixies the play
ing of Cash and Perry was deserving of
commendation; while for the Forest Citys
the playing ot Sullivan, Howlett and
Godfrey was above the average. The
following is the score:

NOTES.
St, Louis is to have a League team in
1834, providing she is admitted.
The Chicago papers are sending hot
shot at the manager of the club in that
city.
Ewing, lately released by the St. Louis
club, is a brother of the catcher of the
New York team.
Dalrymple made his first appearance
with the Chicagos since May 24 in the
Chicago-Buffalo game.
Kelly, of the Chicagos, did not make a
single hit in six consecutive games. Pfef
fer. the phenomenal short stop, went him
one better, not striking safely in seven
games.
Jones and Hubbard were to receive
SI,OOO a month together from the Pkiladel
phias. Manager Hauck, of Baltimore, is
said to lie willing to give $1,200 a month
for them.
Detroit wants a pitcher. An alleged
one was imported trom Covington, Ky.
Manager Jack Chapman took him out in
the back yard of the Wendell House in
the afternoon and “released” him after a
trial.
It would be hard to find in any “old
elo”' shop a worse looking uniform than
the red and black 6triped shirts and flar
ing red trousers of the Chicagos as worn.
But there’s “luck in ’em.”— Chicago Her
ald.
A Philadelphia paper had the cheek to
say “all hope of the Philadelphia. Club
taking a leading position in the League
race may now be abandoned, and it is
even a (Question it it does not wind up at
the tail end,”
Another Victim of the Toy Pistol.
Yesterday afternoon, about half past
four o’clock, Henry Haskell, a colored
boy about thirteen years old, was acci
dentally wounded in the neck by a number
oue ball, discharged from a toy pistol by
one of his playmates. The ball entered
his neck on the right side, and coursed
around immediately beneath the skin,
at the back of the neck, and passed out
on the left side.
The wound bled profusely, and a large
crowd of boys followed Haskell to the
City Dispensary, where Dr. Cass gave the
necessary surgical attention, after which
the lad returned to liis home on Farm
street.
Oglethorpe* Defeated at Jacksonville.
The result of the game at Jacksonville
yesterday, between the “Florida Herald ”
Base Ball Club of that city and the Ogle
thorpes, of Savannah, is published in the
telegraphic columns of the News.
Though not confident of a victory, the
home nine went determined to win if pos
sible, The game was well played by both
teams and a 6core of 8 to 3 is a favorable
comparison with 23 to 7, the score of the
Forest Citys and Dixies The elub will
return to-day.
Early Closing.
Editor Morning News: If “A Con
gress Street Merchant” will come out
over his oxrn signature, instead of hiding
his identity behind a nom de plume and
under cover of a pretended declaration of
mercantile principles, spitting his slime
at so excellent a body of gentlemen as the
clergv of this city, I will promise to dis
sect his principles for him.

Poisoned Water to Drink.
When the fish died in the river, forty
miles above the water works, many peo
ple were alarmed lest the defilement of
the water might extend all the way down.
Happily there was nothing but what
could lie remedied by the use of some
thing that everybody could procure at a
minute’s notice.’ This little “something”
was Perry Davis’ Pain Killer.

Tlie Popular Judgment.
It has been justly remarked that the
popular judgment, deliberately made up,
is correct and reliable, It stamps with
its own peculiar seal whatever it approves,
The reputation which survives its search
ing and critical tests is established on a
firm foundation. The really meritorious
article finds favor at first, but slowly and
with many rebuffs, its inherent virtue con
tinually asserts itself; its elasticity re
bounds" higher with every check, until it
reaches the height of favor to which it is
entitled.
Burnett's Cocoaine for the hair, and
Burnett’s Standard Flavoring Extracts
for cooking purposes, are articles iq point.
They have been before the public many
years; one by one they acquired friends,
"then they counted their hundreds; then
their thousands. Success created rivals;
competition assailed them, but their Stir
ling merits withstood all opposition, and
the popular verdict was largely rendered
in their favor.
These, together with Burnett’s other
Toilet Articles, are now “household
words,” and in household use throughout
the States and iu many foreign countries.
They are of such admirable make as to
combine substance with elegance—the
supply of a uentune want with an appeal
to the imagination in the poetry of their
composition. And for these reasons Bur
nett’s Preparations will enjoy an ever in
creasing sale, and an ever brightening
reputation.

soothes the child, softens the gums, al

Fashion Note*.
Spanish laces are no longer fashionable.
Corsage bouquets are pretty when taste
fully worn.
Pearl, silver and gold headed pins are
used to secure bonnet strings.
Polonaises, smartly looped back, are in
favor. They are arranged with paniers.
There is a great latitude permissible in
gaslight toilets for watering place wear.
Louis Quinze shoe buckles are now
used in Paris to fasten collars as well
as hats.
Good tinsel decorating white tulle
drapes charminglv over satin of a pearl
white hue.
Kid slippers are cut very low, and
when the stockings are embroidered the
sandals are plain, and vice versa.
A nox'elty in lace is the Pompadour pat
tern—a darned net, with a tine pearled
edge and a raised figure in silk muslin.
Sagging puffs for draperies are hand
some, and give character to costumes ar
ranged in soft silks and very line thread
goods.
Some of the lace scarfs are utilized as a
sort of turban; gracefully twisted about
a well shaped head there is nothing pret
tier.
Summer mantles offer but little variety
in shape from those of last season; they
are demi-pelisse visite, and mantelette or
scarf mantle.
Worth's newest sleeves have but one
seam—that outside the arm. Coat sleeves,
in order to be stylish, must now be fitted
as closely as possible.
Among the most costly fabrics for sum
mer evening toilets are zephyr brocades
and brocatelles, with brilliantly colored
exotics on dark grounds.
To keep kid shoes from cracking apply
glycerine very lightly by rubbing on with
a bit of fiannel before’ applying any of the
patent dressings used to give gloss to the
kid.
A beautiful drapery is made of black
Andalusian piece lace; the festoons and
curves are pretty and easily formed.
Spanish lace grenadine in black is very
becoming to both blondes and brunettes.
Silk floss snowdrops thickly scattered
over net of very fine mesh give a hand
some draped effect, with brocades and
satins of brilliant colors, such as scarlet,
orange, grass green, royal purple, French
pink.
Among the list of summer fabrics are
pale colored linens, silk gauzes, sateens,
exquisitely tinted veilings,delicate French
muslins, French foulards, always popular
in Paris, Loiusne silks, French organdies,
cambrics and lawns, in all the beautiful
new shades.

Plenty of good clothing on hand, and it
