greeted with frequent applause. At
the end of tue third act she
was called before the audience
a second time and then was unwillingly
allowed to retire. In this act she was the
recipient of a beautiful basket of flowers.
Mile. Rhea’s acting ot the frivolous,
chanceful, fretful “Frou-Frou” com
pletely won the audience, and she was
welcomed with generous applause all the

THE MILITARY ACADEMY CADETS.
Presented with a Handsome Flag Tlie
Ceremony In the Park Extension—The
Drill and parade— Serenade to the
Donor of the Gift.
The flag presentation to the Georgia Mili
tary Academy Cadets yesterday afternoon
was an event in cadet life which will
long be remembered. The presentation
took place in the Park extension at 4
o’clock, and was witnessed by crowds ot
people, among whom were a large num
ber of ladies.
At 3 o'clock the Cadet Battalion, com
prising three companies, undef command
of Major 11. J. Burgess, Company A,
commanded by Capt. Crowther, Company
11, by Capt. Rogers, and Company C by
Capt. Hinton, marched from the
Academy and entered the parade ground
preceded bv their band. After a brief
parade the battalion was drawn upon the
north side of the Confederate monument.
The academic staff was ordered to the
front and Cadet Owens stepped from the
ranks, and taking a position facing the
line, presented in a graceful speech the
handsome silk flag, the munificent gift of
Mrs. G. W. Deßenne. The banner is a
lieautiful piece of workmanship.
measuring about •> by 5 !eet, and
mounted *on a handsome staff,
surmounted by tbe eagle of victory with
outstretched wings. From the top of the
st iff are pendant two gilt cords, at the
extremities of which are heavy gold tas
-, is. Tiie staff, cords and tassels are ex
ceedingly handsome. The field of the
banner is of dark blue silk finished on the
border with a deep bullion fringe. In the
centre is the coat of arms of the State of
Georgia. The arch and columns ot the
emblem, lteing worked with chenille,
closely resemble granite. Across the face
of the" arch is worked in silk the word
•‘.Constitution,” and on the right, centre
and left columns are the words, “IV is
dom,” Justice” and "Moderation.
Everv part ot the work is exquisitely
shaded, and the inscriptions show in bold
relief. The reverse of the banner repre
sents the new ensign of the State of
Georgia, and is formed of one perpendic
ular blue stripe next to the stiff, with
two red stripes horizontally formed, be
tween which, iu the centre, is a white
stripe.
At the conclusion of the presentation
address the banner was received on the
part of the Battalion by Major Burgess in an
appropriate speech, in which he charged
the Cadets to honor and be true to their
colors now, and in aftef life be ready to
follow them when called, if ever, amid the
scenes of war. Color Bearer Cadet R. G.
Norton was ordered to the front and cen
tre, and the banner was delivered to his
charge.
The battalion then reformed,'and a drill
and dress parade took place, the Cadets
performing the various tnanu uvres in a
creditable manner and winning the com
mendation of the large crowd of spectators
present. After the parade the battalion
countermarched to Drayton street and
through Gaston. Whitaker and Bay streets
to the front of the post office building, where
it halted and a large crowd of citizens
and business men gathered and compli
mented the Cadets oil their tine appear
ance. After a short rest the battalion
was called to attention, and proceeded
out Dmvton and Liberty streets to theresi
denceofMrs. Deßenne", where ahalt was
again ordered and a serenade was tendered
their patroness. The line of march was
then to the Academy, where the battalion
was dismissed and the boys gave three
hearty cheers for the donor ot their flag.
The entire display was a credit to the
Cadets and the management of the
academy. A West Point graduate is ex
pected in a few weeks to assume the in
struetorsbip of military tactics, and
everv facilitv will lie afforded to the mem
bers'of the institution to secure a com
plete military education.
WkATIIKR
THE HOUSTON ENCAMPMENT.
Will the Cadets Deeideto Enter the Con
test?—Tlie Attendance from tlie State
unit Alalumn.
The inter-state prize drill and military
encampment, to take place at Houston,
Tex,, in May, is exciting considerable in
terest in military circles throughout the
State, and it is not improbable that Savan
nah will be represented by her crack
company—the Cadets. The matter will
be brought up for consideration in their
meeting next week, and it is un
derstood that their attendance will
be urged by a number of
citizens who are ready to furnish the
funds to defray the expenses of the trip.
The company is now in a fit condition to
compete with any of the crack companies
of the South and West, since the Nash
ville drill last year the Cadets have
covered the defects that then existed in
their organization, and if they decide to
enter the Houston drill there is a certain
probability that they will bring home the
*5,000 prize and the honor of being the
best drilled company in the country.
Among the State companies who will
probably enter are the Columbus Guards.
At a meeting held on Thursday night the
officers expressed a willingness to go if a
sufficient number of the inemliers would
make the trip. Col. Childress, represent
ing tue drill, was present and urged their
attendance.
The Montgomery Grays, of Montgomery,
Ala., will also enter provided they can
raise sufficient funds. Their only obstacle
in the way of being represented is the lack
ot enthusiasm ami encouragement among
the merchants. Some of the members say
their employers are unwilling for them to
take part, and it will cost them their posi
tion if thev should go.
There is'little doubt that any of those
conditions affecting other companies
would deter tlie Cadets from entering the
drill.
A Vegetable Canning Factory.
Tue Morning News had a very pleas
ant visit yesterday morning from Mr.
Benjamin F. Holmes, of New Brunswick,
N. J., who is on a visit to our city with
the view of investigating the feasibility of
starting a vegetable canning factory.
Mr. Holmes has for a number of years
been connected with a canning establish
ment in New r Brunswick and is
weil posted in the management
ot such an enterprise. If, after his inves
tigation, he finds all things favorable, he
proposes to establish a branch factory,
placing a part of the stock in Savannah.
Such an enterprise will prove of material
value to the truck farmers, who will find
a profitable market lor all of their surplus
produce. &
The factory will not confine itself tocan
ning vegetables, but include fruits, beef,
poultry, etc. Our farmers, when they
find a ready market for all they can pro
duce, will enter more largely into raising
vegetables.
In the course of time an evaporating
branch of the Savannah Factory can be
established in the heart of the peach
growing country of Georgia, thus afford
ing a market for the thousands of bushels
ol peaches annually thrown away or
allowed to decay unpicked.
It is to be hoped that Mr. Holmes will
find sufficient inducements in and about
Savannah to justify him in embarking in
the proposed enterprise.

FROM SAVANNAH TO COLUMBIA.
A Route for a Raitroail That Deserve*
Attention.
Lawton vili.e, 8. C., March 5.
Editor Morning yews: I noticed in your
paper a week or two since that attention
was called to the necessity and import
ance of a railroad from Savannah to Co
lumbia, S. C.
It may not be out of place to state that
the people on the South Carolina side of
the Savannah river have not been in
different to this proposed road, and have
several vears ago procured a charter
from Columbia direct to Savannah, which
could now be used and avoid delay. The
writer lias traveled the entire distance
from Savannah to Columbia in a buggy,
and can now assert, without fear of con
tradiction, that the distance is less than
150 miles. Now let us inquire what is the
distance by any other route.
From Columbia to Savannah, by way of
the Central Railroad through Augusta,
is about 200 miles; to Savannah, by way
of the Port Royal Railroad, is about 210
miles; again, by way of the South Caro
lina and Charleston and Savannah Rail
road, the distance is about 230 miles. So
that Columbia is nearer to Savannah by
the proposed route at least fifty miles
than liy any other route now in existence.
Let any tine examine the map for one
moment and he will lie convinced that
this proposed road will make almost a
direct line from Savannah and Florida to
New York, connecting with the Charlotte
and Columbia Railroad at Columbia.

The Short Experience of a Young I.imh
of the Law.
Editor Morning yews: This particular
young man has, contrary to his expecta
tions, found, since embarking iu tbe prac
tice of law,that it is a failure and a farce,
aiul assures his friends that he has profit
ed by his experience. The conclusion at
last arrived at by him is, there is nothing
to lie made or gained at it when the
“larger fish swallow all the little min
nows,” and surely no bread or meat for a
man’s family while sitting cross-legged
in his sanctum day alter day, with noth
ing to do but to meditate upon the folly
of the human race, himself included.
We’re a young man possessed ot means,
which would, perhaps, admit of this
“wait, horse, until the oats grow”—he
could, with all propriety and impunity,
drag out this “come day, go day” man
lier of tiusiness. But ns it now is, he
says he finds very little nutriment in
“wind pudding and shadow soup.” and
is feariul what little strength or vitality
is still in his poor frame will, ere long,
leak out. . .
Some say cheer up, cheer up. which is
all very well in its way, and which good
cheer lie knows springs from the fountains
of the hearts of those who advocate it.
But alas, there is nothing to cheer up on,
save the faint and uncertain hope of the
future, which is as chaff' before the wind,
or as castles built in the air, which, may
in an unguarded moment crumble into
dust, leaving a shapeless mass of what
was once a grand structure.
Although his experience has been
very limited so far, he owns up
that he lias been “penny wise and pound
toolish” in undertaking such a lucrative
business, o tempora, O mores, he says,
when thus one is duped by his own folly,
It will be admitted that the profession
of law is a grand and exalted one in
deed, and will answer remarkably well
tor those of high degree, and who are
able to withstand the vicissitudes, the
•ups and downs to be encountered in its
practice.
He begs that those who are best ac
quainted with its intricacy will pardon
him should he go astray here, but one of
the greatest difficulties he has encoun
tered is to know how to obtain a fee after
working tor it upon a promise to pay, lor
in nine out of ten instances, he has found
some set oft' in the manner of “homestead
exemptions,” exemptions of personalty,
deeds of gift made to some member of a
family, or what is still worse, a plea of
“ bam:us ruptus ,” or tbatof '•'■nulla bona,”
and the members of the fraternity will all
agree to battle against such barricades as
these, is as straining at a gnat and swal
lowing a camel.
There is no doubt in his mind that there
are members of the bar whose interpreta
tion of the laws as we have them surpass
his of limited experience, but ho cannot
tell what it is that keeps them from be
coming inmates of the “poor house.”
Still the question may be answered that
they are able to stem the tide and keep
their boats from swamping, owing to that
necessary talisman, money, backed as
they maybe bv the wealth of parents and
influence of influential friends.
A word to those young men who con
template the profession of law. His ad
vice mav be sneered at, but, young man,
be careful. Don’t put your head into the
lion’s mouth, or be duped, like the cat
was when the monkey pulled the chest
nuts from the fire with its paw, for it Vou
do you will find when too late that
“Jordan is indeed a hard road to travel,”
ana if you have any bright hopes or aspi
rations for the future do not blast them in
your heyday of prosperity and expecta
tions. For of lawyers there are too many.

THE A LAP AH A RIOT.
Albany a* Health Resort—Railroad
Matters—Tlie Effect of the Dry
Weather.
Correspondence of the Morning Sews. m
Albany, Ga., March o. —Albany has
won reputation as a health resort more
rapidly, perhaps, than any other point in
the State. The “Artesian craze,” as some
call it, has brought to the city represen
tatives from many States, who have
tested the virtue of the water, and are
ready to bear testimony as to its efficacy.
Among the most notable cases are those
of Judge Erskine and Dr. H. R. Casey,
where relief has been acquired in a short
space of time. The wife of Hon. H. G.
Turner has been relieved of one of the
most stubborn cases of dyspepsia known,
and others have been substantially bene
fited in eases of rheumatism. Mr. A.
Weeks, a prominent attorney of New
York city, declared that he had been most
wonderfully relieved in his kidney trouble.
This water’is a most wonderful remedy,
and in it is the future of Albany.
One fact has been most clearly demon
strated in the building of the Artesian
Hotel. It is that if the citizens will pro
vide the hotel accommodations tbe travel
ing public will fill them. Savannah’s big
hotel will never lack for patronage if it is
ever built.
Notwithstanding the failure of the cot
ton crop last year the city continues to
improve, and buildings are springing tip
on all sides. The people ot Albany are
not of the “rough and tumble” class, but
are rather inclined to be easy-going. Still
there is energy and thrift manifest in their
business management. The building of
tbe railroads lias diminished the “barter
business” of the city largely. The rail
road stations now gather up the country
produce, and control to some extent the
general traffic of those people, who, a few
years ago, used to come into Albany lit
erally in droves, with tlieir carts and
wagons. The railroads, however, have
built up the trade of the city, and it in
creases in volume every year.
President Woltt'e, of the Brunswick
and Western Railroad, and Mr. Selig
man, who is largely interested In that en
terprise, will reach Albany to-morrow.
They come on an inspection tour. What
will be the result of their visit is only con
jecture. It is said, however, that they
mean business.
The Alapaha riot threw the whole city
into a fever of excitement. There were
many ludicrous things said and done, and
if it had not had a serious side, many
things would have been exceedingly
laughable. The Guards were prompt to
respond when the Governor’s order came,
and many outsiders volunteered. Hap
pily their services were not needed. The
whole affair was unduly magnified from
the beginning, and yet the course
pursued was" the onlv proper one.
The partv had a right to de
mand a fair trial, which no doubt
would have been awarded him
by the proper authorities, but his friends
violated every principle of good order
when they attempted to interfere with the
process of law. This, no doubt, they now
see after the frenzy of the hour. This
difficulty will involve many hitherto good
citizens in unpleasant and costly litiga
tion, for all the parties will be indicted by
the next grand jury of Berrien county.
No arrests will be made until the meeting
of the Superior Court.
The promptness of Governor McDaniel
in dealiiig with this difficulty is in strange
contrast with that of the Governoffof Ala
bama when anarchy reigned for a whole
week in Opelika.
There still continues a water famine
almost all through Southwest Georgia.
The slight rains we have had were of no
practical value. The high winds took up
all the moisture from the ground. The
oat crop is suffering seriously, and the
corn has barely moisture enough to get
through the clods. The stock suffer for
the want of water, and many families
have to haul alj the water they use about
the house several miles. Rain is sadly
needed.
Col. John I’. Fort, of Macon, came to
Albany yesterday, and bringing with him
some four or five gentlemen from Massa
chusetts, who are ou a trade for one of
Mr. F’ort’s jlantations in this country.
They propose to divide this property up
into small farms, and bring to Dougherty
county a number of farmers and mechan
ics, and establish a colony. They will be
heartily welcomed bv the citizens here.

FACIDELE’S FORTUNE.
The Frenchman in Florida who Wooed
WeaHtlt and Won It.
The news somehow got to Jacksonville,
Fla., that Frank Faciolle held a part of
the ticket which drew tbe capital maze ot
$75,000 in the F’ebruary drawing W the
Louisiana State Lottery Company. A
search was set up for him by a reporter,
but he could not be tound. Finally some
of his friends were discovered who sus
pected, although they did not know of his
good fortune.
Faciolle was a carpenter and cabinet
maker, at No. 271 Pine street. He is 4 1
years of age, came from Paris, of which
he is a native, to America nine years ago,
and settled in Jacksonville about a year
ago. He learned his trade in France.
lie dropped in on one of his friends the
night before his departure lrom Jackson
ville. and said he was going away.
“Whyare you going)” asked his friend.
“Oh, business is dull in my line, and I
can get nothing to do.”
The mystery of his whereabouts was
solved on Friday, when he turned up in
the ortice of the Louisiana State Lottery
Company, at the corner of St. Charles and
Union streets. Faciolle had in liis posses
sion one-fifth of the ticket 1 ’342,
which drew the capital prize of $75,000 at
the drawing on February 12, 1884. He
presented the precious slip of paper, and
it was immediately exchanged for a check
on the New Orleans National Bank. It
was a noteworthy transformation scene
coining to the otlice a poor cabineUmaker,
and leaving it comparatively a man of
means.
F’aciollo is a single man, and came to
America to better bis fortune. He labored
diligently for years, but did not meet with
much success until some lucky Impulse
forced him to invest a dollar in a lottery
ticket, whieh he ordered by correspon
dence from M. A. Dauphin, New Orleans.
He became aware of being entitled to a
share in the $75,000 prize soon alter the
drawing, and came here to collect his
monev.
Faciolle says he will continue at his
trade for another year, and will then re
turn to his sunny home in “La Belle
F’ranee” to meet his kindred and friends,
who will doubtless be overjoyed at his
good fortune.—-Veto Orleans (La.) Pica
yune, March 2.
The Paris Club Scandal.
Paris Dispatch to the London Daily Telegraph.
It appears that complaints have been
made of robberies at the club in the Rue
Roy ale for two years past, and this may
to sopie extent account for so large a sum
as £4,000 being found in the possession of
th“ footman who has been arrested. No
✓letters or papers were found in his lodg
ings of later date than 1878, when he en
tered the service of the club. If, lliere
tore, he had any accomplices, especial
care has been taken to avoid compro
mising them. Some stockbrokers’ ac
counts have, however, been found,
Which may give a clue to the police. The
man affirms that the securities found
upon him belonged to his friends, but he
will not give the names of the owners.
Two bottles of prepared gum have been
discovered, together with several packets
of needles, with which the cards were
pricked. On a careful investigation of
the marked cards it appears that tbe sys
tem adopted was to raise a slight scratch
on the face of the cards, and to apply a
small quantity of the solution of gum
arabic to it, drying the spot at once, and
thus enabling the player to ascertain the
nature of the card by the slightest touch.

A HARROWING SPECTACLE.
An Artist Found Insensible.
'VTESTERDAY’ a well dressed lady and gen
-1 tleraau entered our store and upon their
asking to be shown “Artists’ Supplies,” were
invited into our art room. After expressing
surprise and pleasure at the large stock there
to be seen, they commenced to make their
purchases. Having priced three or four
articles, the lady was unable to control her
emotions and swooned away in a dead faint.
“Low Prices” told the tale, her shattered
nervous condition could not sustain the shock
of so sudden a transition from high prices
