Miss Fanny Davenport in “Fedora.”
31iss Fanny Davenport will appear at
the Theatre to-night in Yictorien Sardou’s
great play, “Fedora.” The event, it is
expected, will be the theatrical event of
the season, and, from the sale of seats, a
crowded house is assured. The New Or
leans Timex-Democrat says: “Miss Dav
enport, who has ever been a favorite,
last isight developed in ‘Fedora’ a deeper
and broader phase of her artistic power,
and her remarkable command of facial
expression was exhibited. Throughout
she moved through the varied scenes with
a grace that was charming, and when
added to this is her beauty, outside the
action she holds the audience completely
at her bidding.
“Those who have only seen Miss Daven
port in other years, comely, stout and
cold in society dramas of the ‘Divorce’
and ‘Pique’ class, would scarcely recog
nize her now. Shelias followed Bautin’s
theory successfully, and is of slender,
genteel figure, and still retains her charm
of beauty, she is thoroughly in earnest
in ‘Fedora,’ and she is now a great ac
tress, and her costumes, of course, are
elegant, 3liss Davenport's company is
exactly suited to the piece, and that
makes the performance pleasant.”
The Postman's Picnic Itay—Something
Aho ut Valentines.
It may he of interest to the subjects of
St. Valentine to know that the postage on
sealed Valentines is two cents for half
once and one cent if unsealed, whether
for delivery in the city or elsewhere. Val
entines mailed in violation of these re
quirements will Dot reach their destina
tion, but tie sent to the Dead Letter Office
as unpaid matter. The origin of the cus
tom which attends the 14th of February,
and of which to-day is the anniversary, is
charged to the Romans, who celebrated
about this time the feasts of Pan and
Juno, called the Lupercalia, on which oc
casion it was customary for the young
men and maidens to choose a companion
for the year. In England and Scotland
St. Valentine’s day was formerly a joy
ous occasion. Then the lover, instead of
sending valentines breathing love, went
himself; and he who should first gain the
glance of a fair maiden on Valentine's
morn was her valentine for the year.
Later, when writing became more gen
eral—and finally when printing became
cheap and popular—the ancient customs
fell into decay, and “valentines” grew to
be the fashion.

MOVEMENTS OF THE DELEGATES.
The Excursion Down the River Yester
day—Banqueted on Board the Steamer
—Their Visit to the Ocean Steamship
Wharves —What They Think of Savan
nah.
The complimentary excursion ten
dered by the eitizens to the dele
gates to the State Agricultural
Convention, yesterday, was the lead
ing feature on the programme of en
tertainment arranged by the Citizens*
Committee. Immediately after the ad
journment of the convention at 16 o’clock
the delegates proceeded in a body
to the steamer St. Nicholas, which was
lying at her wharf at the foot of Drayton
street, where they were met by the fce’cep
tion Committee and escorted on board the
vessel. The early part of the morning
was rainy, and the indications were that
the excursion would be rendered disagree
able on that aeeount. Shortly after 11
o’clock, the hour appointed for the depart
ure of the party, the cloudsffleared away,
and the spirits ot the excursionists re
vived before the steamer left the wharf.
A large number of prominent citizens,
among whom were many ladies, were on
board as invited guests’. The Reception
Committee was accompanied by the
3layor and members of the City Council,
and representatives of the various busi- I
ness and commercial interests of Savan- i
nah. The steamer left the city with be- I
tween 400 and 500 passengers and proceed
ed up the river to the Ocean Steamship
Company’s wharf, where the excursionists
were landed and given an opportunity of ■
inspecting that extensive property—the !
immense warehouses and sheds, stored
with guano, and the piles of freight await
ing transportation. They were also in- i
vited on board the steamship Nacoochee I
by Gen. Sorrel, where they were hospi- j
tably entertained.
After remaining about an hour the party i
re-embarked and proceeded down the river j
past the lice mills and along the shipping, i
going through the South Channel and
St. Augustine Creek, obtaining a view of I
Bonaventure, Thunderbolt and the Schuet
zen Park. The intention of the com- j
mittee was to take the party through
Lazaretto Creek, around the bell buoy off !
Tybee, returning up the main channel of
the river; but on reaching Warsaw Sound
a dense fog was encountered, and the ,
Steamer returned to Shad’s point and ;
went down the main channel as far as !
Venus’ point. Owing to the lateness of i
the hour it was depmed inadvisable to go !
to Tvbee, and the party returned, FCach- !
ing the city shortly after 0 o'clock.
Shortly after leaving the steamship •
wharves’the entertainment committee be- j
gao arranging the tables In the cabins, j
and by 3 o’clock a sumptuous collation ;
had been spread in the upper saloon for j
the ladies, and in the lower saloon for the ;
gentlemen.
The members of the party were invited I
to the tables, and the collation was served i
by a corps of experienced waiters. The
flowing bowl played a prominent part :
during the hour, and the deceitful artillery
punch, under the innocent disguise of
“persimmon beer,” was “free as water.”
During the discussion of the collation
speeches were made by various mem
bers of the convention in response to the
welcome to the city. Cos). Morgan Rawls,
of Rifingham, made the speech of tke day.
The line of his talk was that Cue oid
jealousy between the mountain and the
seaboard had been dispelled, and that the
interior was gratified to see that savan
nah was prepared with her steamships to
carry off the products of the State. He
lived midway between the mountain dis
tricts and the seaboard, ami was, there
fore, better able to speak of both. He
thought that the entire people of the
State should be proud of their seaport
city, and should do all in their power to
build her up. He spoke glowingly of the
handsome manner in which the conven
tion had been entertained.
Judge Fleming of Baker, Col. J. 11.
3lobley of Harris, and Col. Winn of Gwin
nett, were among the other speakers, and
did honor to the occasion. The entire
party wes delighted with the trip, and
expressed themselves “royally enter
tained." 31 any of those who accompanied
the party had never before seen the har
bor of Savannah, find the extensive
wharves and long loses of shipping were
a revelation to them.
Thedelegates will leave for Jacksonville
i this morning at 8 o’clock, on a special
train, as guests of fiae Savannah, Florida
! and Western Railway. They will visit
the Florida State* Fr.ir this afternoon and
| to-morrow, and will go from there to their

“The Famous”
Has so badly damaged the high price
clothing system in Savannah and Charles
ton that we are far from being the best
beloved among our competitors. We are
only trying to please our patrons, and
they we know don't care how we get our
goods (whether we pay for them or not)
as long as we save them three to five
dollars on a suit; but our goods are paid
for before they are offered for sale; that is
one of the great secrets that we can afford
to sell as cheap as we do. Another secret
of our success is that we manufacture
our own goods, and that we are satisfied
with a small profit; and now to dispose of
the remainder of our winter stock, we
are selling at manufacturers cost. Call

Tlie Title of Monsignor.
As the number of ilonsignors and their
grades in the United States is increasing
ft may be of interest to give their different
degrees. First, there are the “Partici
pants,” and these always reside in Rome:
next the “Prothonotaries” and the “Do
mestic Prelates.” All of these have the
title of Right Reverend, and receive their
title and dignity for life. By custom the
Vicar Generals of Cardinal Bishops are
made Monsignors. There are also the
“Camerieri Segreti,” or Secret Chamber
lains, who retain the title only
during the lifetime of the Pope
who creates them. These are classed
as Very Reverend. There are minor
grades of no importance, they being
simply attaches of the Papal Court, as
supernumeraries and all advance as cir
cumstances may require. The habit ol
the Chamberlains is a kind of purple vest
ment which goes to the feet, with a sash
and purple buttons. The habit of the
higher degrees of the Prelates, the 3lon
signor, and other members of the papal
household is a purple merino cassoek,
6eamed with red silk and having a long
train, which is called a Smyrna, a lace
rocket, a purfile mantelletta,* and other
insignia of the office, including the hec
toral cross, a plain cross of heavy gold,
and the ring, the setting of which is an
amethyst in the shape of a bessica piscis
or fish bladder, one of the early symbols of
the Christian faith.

A Key to Economy and Success, and
How to Make a Fortune.
It is undoubtedly the greatest part ot
human nature to get the key to economy
and success, which when once got is a
true blessing. It has been our aim for j
many years to acquire this key, which by
personal exertion we have at last attain
ed. Economy is no doubt the only way to
success, and where there is success there ,
is fortune. Now, the idea is how to 'ac- |
cumulate that fortune. 3Ye will now an- ,
swer, which is very plain once seen into, |
viz: By buying your Clothing from B. 11.
Levy & Br’o., the only reliable Clothing |
House in this city, where you can save at
least 3® per cent, on your purchases.
Think ef the old adage, “every cent saved
is made,” and every cent made leads to a
fortune. They are also making a grand
clearing out sale of this season’s stock to
make room for their Spring Stock, which
is now coming in. Call and see them.
