THE GUARDS FAIR OPENED
LIBRARY HALL TRANSFORMED
INTO A DOWER OF BEAUTY.
A Magnificent Display of Rich. Rare.
Curious and Useful Articles The
Formal Opening hy Mayor Lester At
tended by the Battalion—The Decora
tion*—The Booths In Charge of Savan
nah i Fair Cadies —The Chief Attrac
tions of the Fair.
The grand fall-of the Savannah Volun
teer Guards Battalion was formally
opened at 6 o’clock last night by Mayor
Lester. Chairman of the General Fair
Committee. The event had been antici
pated with a great deal of interest, and as
the crowds poured into the Catholic-
Library Hail—transformed into a veritable
bower of beauty and brilliance —the
exclamations of wonderment and delight
were universal and unequivocal. YY hen it
was determined to hold the tair the Gen
oral Committee resolved that nothmsr that
could contribute to its success should be
left undone. The result of their labors and
supervision and the superior taste and art
istic skill of the decorator was evidenced in
the unique decorations of the hall, which
are on a scale of elegance and magnifi
cence never before attempted in Savannah.
The visitor could ifbt but be amazed at
the grand transformation that had taken
place during the past few days. Busy
hands were at work yesterday
from daylight until the hal!
was thrown open to the public, ar
ranging the thousands of beautiful and
useful articles in the booths and upon the
tables, and placing everything in order.
At 5:30 o’clock the battalion assembled
at the arsqjial without arms and, under
cunmund of their gallant Colonel, march
ed to the Fair building. Arriving
at the main entrance, a halt w-as
ordered. The Republican Blues Band,
which, in tlie absence of the Guards’
Band in Macon, preceded the corps, was
stationed on McDonough street, on the
north side of the hall, and the battalion
tiled in and marched to the gal
lery. Mayor Lester, as Chairman
of the General Committee, welcomed
the citizens who, by their presence, lent
encouragement and support to the gallant
Guards in their efforts, ami announced
the fair formally opened.
The spacious and beautiful hall was
filled vv ith a gay assemblage of gentlemen
and ladies, and the bright uniforms of the
Guards mingled with those of the other
commands who were represented, and the
costumes of the ladies amid the bright
colors of the flitwers and decorations, made
the scene a brilliant one. The entire hall
presented an appearance of beauty that is
seldom enjoyed. The decorations are
elaborate, beautiful and tasteful. The
booths arc lmpdsome and attractive, and
are filled with a thousand and one articles
useful and ornamental.
Upon entering the hall the first booth to
the right is the Cigars and Tobacco Em
porium. presided over by Miss Carrie
Tomlinson. Miss Einilv Fernaudez and
NI iss Fannie Massart. The liootli is tasteful
ly decorated in red, and upon its counters
are arranged in an attractive show case
line cigars, cigarettes, tobacco and smok
ers’ articles of almost every variety.
The next to the right Is the Wheel of
Fortune, which has not yet been arranged,
but which will lie managedby Mrs. Jacob
I.ippman and Mrs. Joseph Belsinger.
The first display at the left upon entering
the hall, is the
CLOTHING DEPARTMENT,
under supervision of Messrs. Abrahams
& Birnbaum. This display is unusually
attractive. Upon a platform is arranged
some of the finest clothing in the trade
placed bv the firm having charge of the
department, and including donations
from the leading clothing houses in the
North. Among the suits contributed by
Northern firms are a fine
imported corkscrew suit. donated

tion, as may lie deckled.
Adjoining the clothing department is a
beautiful display of silverware and fancy
-o. a- by K. I’latshek.
Next to this display, and opposite
the cigar emporium, is the table
presided over by the committee having in
charge the distribution of the Guards pro
perty.
Beyond this is the
LEMONADE WELL,
a beautiful rustic structure, enclosed with
a railing of rustic work, and from which
ice cold lemonade is drawn and served to
the thirsty visitors. The work was de
signetl and executed by Mr. J.F. Daly, of
Providence. R. 1., and is worthy of atten
tion. The well is deep down in the centre
of an arbor-like structure built in the
shape of an old-fashioned well etirb. The
roof is covered with ntoss clinging to the
wood, and the whole is surmounted by a
rustic ornament, upon which is
perched a dove holding a lemon in
its bill. The well is presided over by
Mrs. James L. Taylor, Mrs. G. A. \\ hite
liead. Misses Lawton, Miss Dyer, Miss
Stewart. Miss. Callie Ellis, Miss Clark
and Miss llaldetnan.
Upon the north side of the hall is the
FOREST CITY TABLE,
which, with the Col. Garrard table, are
the largest two in the hal!. The bootii is
of Oriental design, heavily decorated and
festooned, and having the words “Forest
Citv Table,” in pink letters above its
main table. To describe the many rich
articles which it contains would
lie impossible, but among those
which ure prominent are three elegant
hand-painted bonnets, by Mrs. Etl. Har

gant crayon portrait of the gallant com
mander of the battalion, Col. William

On the south side of the hall, opposite
the Forest City Table, is the
COL. GARRARD TABLE,
similar in construction to the first,
and tilled with rare and costly articles of
rirtn, super!) embroideries and many ar
ticles of elaborate and unique design,
which are beyond the reporter's power of
description. A great deal of the display
has already been announced aid de
scribed ia the Morning News as the
contributions were received by the com
mittee. The booth is presided over by
Mrs. Allan Fullarton. Mrs. A. Minis, Mrs.
George Screven, Mrs. Charles Cunning
ham. Mrs. T. C. Arnold and Mrs. Freiil
enberg. and the citizens will receive a
cordial welcome at their hands.

B. J. Burgess. Mrs. Mell Thomas, and
Miss May Elliott. The punch department
is presided over by Mrs. 11, T. Botts.
THE CHEAP JOHN BAZAAR
is on the north side of the hall, opposite
the cafe, and is reDognized bv a large
banner stretched above its tables with
the word* “Cheap John” painted in bold
red letters. It contains hundreds of
cheap articles, ornaments, children’s
playthings, and many that the reporter
was unable to tell anything about, and
that the public must see to appreciate.
Tlie attendants are Mrs. W. G. Charlton,
Mrs. c. W. Anderson, and Miss Lillie
Ellis.
THE FLOWER ROOTH
in the centre of the hall is a lieautiful
structure in octagon form with open
arches on the sides and covered with a
circular roof of Japanese fans and sttr
motinted by a gilt ball just underneath
the ceiling of the hall. The decoration of
this booth as well as that of the entire hall
was the work of the decorator,
Mr. Harry Harmon, whose excellent
taste, judgment and skill are manifestly
displayed. Suspended in the eentre of the
booth bn the inside is an immense Japa
nese lantern, shedding a soft light over
the flowers, which, in all the choice
varieties, fill the tables, making it indeed
a flower booth. The ladies in charge are
Mrs. J. G. Heyward, Mrs. G. M. Sorrel,
Mrs. .J. Rauere and Mrs. J. J. Wilder.
Bouquets, cut flowers, wreaths, and. in
fact, any order tilled by a florist may be
obtained’ at the flower booth. The ladies
in charge have consummate taste, and in
their efforts to swell the receipts of the
fair treasury in this direction will doubt
less be rewarded with a generous pat
ronage. .
Beyond the flower booth, and upon the
elevation separated front the main floor ot
the hall by a rustic railing, is the
GEN. It. E. LEE RESTAURANT.
This leature is one of the most interest
ing. and to some the most attractive, ot
anv in tbe hall. Inside the railing are
the tables upon which the tempting efforts
of the cuisine, presided over by a French
cook, will be served to the patrous ot the
restaurant, which, by virtue of its name,
demands the patronage of every friend of
the soldiery. The tables are reached
from the main floor through two en
trances on the north and south sides ot
! the hall. The one on the north side is
| under a rustic archway above which is
: the word "Welcome” in green letters,
j Guarding the entrance is a mounted field
I piece, covered with ntoss and flowers and
with one wheel broken, telling tlie
storv of the vears that have fled
since it was rolled . through the
fields in the days of peril. Upon the
muzzle is the inscription, “8. Y . G. 8..
1802-1884,” the date of the Guards or
ganization and the year of the Fair, which
will be remembered as an event in its
history. The entrance on the south side
is under a rustic canopy decorat'd with
flowers. Upon the maia table is an im
mense floral pyramid, and surrounding
it are the delicacies that tempt the appe
tite bevond resistance. Upon each of the
tables is the bill of fare, which although
subject to change from time to time, will
be essentially tbe same, and will include
soup.—Crab, consomme.
Fish.—Fried ovsters, stewed shrimps.
Itoast.—Beef ala mode, turkey.
Boiled.—Jellied ham, tongue.
Fin trees.—fra!) salad. Chicken pie and mush
rooms, shrimp salad, chicken croquets, terri
pinstew.
•Cobl Dishes. —Chicken, veal. ham. beef.
Relishes.—Pickles, olives, radishes.
Vegetables.—Lettuce, green peas, aspara
gus. green corn.
Pastry.—Cakes, strawberries, sherbet.
Dessert.—Vanilla ice cream, chocolate
cream.
Coffee, tea. “
The decorations of the restaurant are
exceedingly attractive. Above the tables
and extending from the north to the south
side of the hall, is an arch decorated with
festoons of evergreens, gilt stars and
shields, representing the coats-of-arms ot
various countries. In the centre of the
arch is the monogram “S. A'. G. B” in
blue letters. Back of the arch
the panels ret in the wall are
draped in red and white and in
the centre is a portrait of'Gen. Lee sur
rounded by an appropriate drapery.
Opening front the restaurant proper on
the south side are tlie kitchens in which
the mysterious combinations of French
cookerv are arranged. The ladies in
charge of this department of the
fair are Mrs. YV. H. Woodbridge,
Mrs. F. 31. Hull, Mrs. G eorge A. Mercer,
Mrs. R. E. Lester, Mrs. 11. Griffin. Mrs.
T. F. Screven. Mrs. W. 11. Daniel. Miss
Georgia Screven. Mrs. Win. Wade. Mrs.
31. Maclean, and Miss I izzie Basinger.
Meals will be served at any hour during
which the fair is open, or will be sent to
anv part of the city. The ladies in attend
ance will leave nothing undone to merit
the patronage of the public,-which their
energy and zeal demand.
Opening from the main hall, through
the ante rooms and past tiie Committee
Room—the headquarters of the General
Fair Committee—is the entrance to
THE PAVILION.
The large garden adjoining the
hall has been, by the erec
tion of a temporary structure,
converted into an attractive pavilion,
w ith dancing floor and refreshment tables
capable of accommodating several hun
dred people. The entrance front the hall
is by broad steps leading underneath an
arclt of evergreens. In the centre of the
pavilion a rustic arbor covers a fountain
playing from a bed of rocks and sending
out its cool spray over the moss and vines
that cling to the sides of the arbor and
sparkling in the glare of the electric light.
Around the fountain is the dancing floor,
upon either side of which are tables upon
which ice cream and refreshments are
served. High above the fountain and
concealed by tbe foliage ot growing
trees, and reached by a flight of
winding stairs is the music bower, where
the orchestra, hidden from view, dis
courses "sweet music for the dancers’
ears.” On the south side ot the pavilion
is tlie Ice Cream Table, presided over bv
Miss Lizzie Basinger and Mrs. H.
Griffin. On the north side is the
soda-water fountain, managed by 3lr.
Paul T. Hill. The enclosure
is decorated with evergreens, and is bril
liantly illuminated bv three electric
lamps sus|iended from the roof. Ascend
ing the stairs leading up to the second
floor of the main hall a balcony overlooks
the scene below, where the observer can
sit concealed and enjov the music or
discuss whatever may be uppermost in
his mind.
opening from the balcony are a series
of rooms, where private suppers will be
served from the restaurant, and the smok
ing room, to which visitors, to the cigar
emporium may adjourn.
Tbe arrangements are complete in their
details, and it is plain to be seen
that the fair will become a popu
lar resort for the evenings of
the coming two weeks. It will hardly
need urging to cause the citizens who are
friends and admirers of tbe Guards, and
who are interested in their efforts to build
an armory that will be an ornament to the
city, to give to the enterprise the encour
agement of their presence and liberal
patronage.
The hall, brilliantly illuminated with
five electric lamps and magnificently dec
orated, was filled last night from the
hour of opening until the closing bell
rang at 11 o’clock, with a brilliant as
semblage. The universal remark was the
variety and richness of articles diplayed.
It was impossible to detail the many
unique features of the booths or to
state the novel methods by which patron
age is attracted, but to the visitor these
facts become at once apparent and a
description is unnecessary.
The fair will re-open to-night and on
succeeding nights at 6 o’clock until its
final closing.

ST.JOHN’S SUNDAY SCHOOL.
Tlie Easter Festival Celebration Last
Nlglit—The Floral Display and Pre
sentation of Offerings—Address bv
Rev. Charles Wright Freeland.
The Easter festival of the Sunday school
of St. John’s Episcopal Church occurred
last night, and a crowded sanctuary lis
tened to the earolings of the children
and noted their offerings of beautiful
flowers. There was much of the same
decoration that adorned the chancel
and altar on Easter Sunday, used last
night. The principal addition was the
arch under which the floral mound of of
ferings was built, and about which the
exquisitely wrought banners were group
ed. This arch was ten or twelve feet in
height, and was made of cedar sprigs, each
base resting on a l>ed of grasses.
In the centre of the arch was a cross of
red roses, and on the apex was a crown
of white roses. At the base of the cross
was a mat of white roses two feet square,
in the centre of which was ingeniously
worked tlie word “Rest.” in violets.
The children had assembled in the Sun
day school room, where tlie several
classes were formed, and at
7:30 o’clock the scholars
with their banners waving marched into
the church snd up the aisles, sweetly ring
ing the processional “Onward, Christian
Soldiers." As soon as quiet was obtained
the Lord’s Prayer and collects were said,
which was followed by a carol, "O Happy
Easter Morning.” Rev. C. YV. Freeland
’ then read the lesson for the dav, which
was the 20tlt chapter of John. This was
followed by another carol, “Christ is
Risen," after which the presentation of
flowers and offerings commenced. Rep
resentatives from each class came up,
and a s the offerings were received by the
Superintendent and his assistants tlie
name of the class and teacher were an
nounced. These were as follows:
Mrs. Bogart's class —"Holy Innocents.”
Mrs. Hamlet's class—“ Easter Buds.”
Miss A. C. Johnson’s class—“ Christ’s Sol
diers and Servants.”
Miss L. Johnson's class—“ Children of tlie
Resurrection.”
Mrs. t ope’s class—“Witling Hands.”
Mrs. Ash’s class—“ Lambs of the Flock."
Miss Thomas’ class—“ Christian Helpers.”
Miss Craig’s class—“ Followers of the Cross.”
Miss Roberts’ class—" Aspirants.”
Mrs. YVells' class—“ Pillars of the Temple.”
Miss L\ man’s class—“ Easter Lilies.”
Mr. (lark’s class—“ Workers for the Crown.”
Miss Mnllery’s class—“ Crown Jewels.”
Miss Wells’ class—“Wavside Flowers.”
Miss Brown’s class—“ Children of Faith."
Mrs. I lev ward’s class—“ Followers of < lirist.”
Mrs. Yillatouga’s class —“Children of the
Holy Spirit.”
Mrs. de Bruyu Kops’ class—" Seekers for
the Truth.”
Mrs. Jordan's class—“ Young Christian Sol
diers.”
Miss McLaw’a class—“ Children of the
Promise.”
Miss Jordan’s clae^—“Children of the Re
deemer.”
Miss ltruen’s class— “Children of Purity.”
Mrs. DuPont's class —“Daughters of tlie
King."
Mist Skinner’! class—“ Faithful Followers.”
After the presentations were made the
next, and to many the most enjoyable
feature of the programme, was a lovely
carol rendered by the members of tlie
infant elass, who were placed before the
congregation and sang:
Oh, radiant morn that breaks the night,
And fills the east with singing!
Oh. bells of jov that greet the light,
The Saviour's triumph ringing.
Hear them ring, joyful belts!
Hear them ring! hear them ring!
Let our voices swell the chorus,
And the Saviour’s triumph sing.
In lieu of tlie Rector’s address, which
was announced on the programme, ltev.
Mr. Freeland, notwithstanding the great
strain that had recently been made upon
him, delivered a short and instructive ad-,
dress to the school, after which “The
Golden Gates are Lifted” was carolled
and the banners were brought forward.
As these were received they were placed
in iKisition about the chancel, and when
they had been arranged with the beauti
ful flowers combining, the scene was one
that doubtless made an impression upon
those who saw it which they carried away
to keep in memory for days to come.
The carol, “lie is not Here,” followed
this, and at its conclusion the congrega
tion joined in chanting the Apostles’
Creed. The sweet carol, “Welcome,
Sweet Dawning,” was sung, which,
blended into “Now, Thy Throne Address
ing” (lsneeling), the benediction was pro
nounced. and to the gladsome notes of the
recessional, “Out of the Shadow,” the
school tiled out of the Church into the
Sunday school room and were disbanded.
The entire festival was one of absorbing
interest, and showed that competent
heads had planned tbe arrangements and
had succeeded in carrying them out.
The rector, Rev. 3fr. Strong, announced
during the evening that the offerings
amounted to $307 62.

Don’t like what? Why, that Cbicker
ing& Sons, the great Piano-makers, should
send down here for our 3lr. Moore, the
efficient head of our Tuning and Repair
ing Department, and make him Superin
tendent of their Piano Factory in Boston.
It’s good luck for him, and wo are glad of
that, but it’s hard on us. But it only
shows what kind of employes we bring
to Savannah. YVe will have first-class
men, no matter what the cost. That’s
our policy every time. And this time,
too, as we have been fortunate enough to
secure an equally competent gentleman
to fill Mr. Moore’s place, who will shortly
assume charge of our Tuning and Re
pairing Department. 3leantime, we have
two tine Tuners in our employ who will
attend to all work that comes in. And
that Savannah Piano Factorv that Mr.
Moore was to have taßen charge of, is
not given up by any means. An old
Piano-maker from the North is under en
gagement, and in due time the factory
will be in operation. “31<ni may come

Many a man is made by his tailor, and
probably just as many are ruined in ap
pearance by the clothing they wear.
Lots of people think it is economy to go
to some obscure shop and buy for a song
a suit that never looks good and that was
never intended to adorn anybody. Simon
Ylitehell is working hard to reform this
mistaken taste by keeping a beautiful
line of tailor-fitting Clothing for Gents,
Youths and Boys at their lowest possible
value. There is a good deal of character
in clothing, and it goes a good way in
forming tlie character of the wearer.
Bring a boy up in the habit of wearing
anything that will just about divide
nakedness front decency and he is apt to
make a man of loose and careless habits.
The boy or man trlio is particular about
the clothing he wears will generally prove
a good citizen. Jly Spring and Summer
Stock is the finest and largest in variety
ever shown in Savannah, and prices are

A Huntsman’s Adventure —A Slaughter
ed Bear Turns Out to be a White Calf.
A rather amusing story was related to a
Morning News reporter the other day
by Maj. YV of a young French Cana
dian, whom the narrator denominated Joe,
and who for the past few months has been
in Savannah. It appears that Joe iffi|>ar
ticularly fond of the sport of shooting,
and in order to zratifv his ambition in this
direction left the city a few mornings since
and traveled several miles in quest of
what he termed chasse .
“He was quite successful, and was re
turning home in the evening with a heart
as light as a feather and a pouch well
stored with a variety of the feathered
creatures, when a rustling in the leaves
and a crashing of branches told him of
the approach of some object. He decided
to remain still and await an encoun
ter with whatever it might prove to
be. Soon the object presented itself in the
form of a white animal, about the size of a
large Newfoundland dog, and advanced
straight towards the subject of this anec
dote. Joe said that he was trembling
with fear and anxietyTK the first giintpse
of the beast, which lie at once concluded
was nothing less than a white bear, and
of which, as an inhabitant of the cold
climates, he had read such thrilling nar
ratives. However, the nervous feeling
only lasted for an instant and tbe next
moment liis rifle was at bis shoulder.
Now for a quick aim, a bold shot, and the
object of hits fear and terror rolled over on
terra Jlnm , struggling in the grasp of
death.’
“Fearing that his work was not com
pletely executed lie tired a series of shots
at the lifeless carcass before him. When
lie was fully satisfied that all signs ot life
Fail passed away, he started off to inform
;► warmer who lived at a distance, of his
adventure, and complimenting himself
with at least gaining the distinction of
being la rainquent de la rainquent de la
tern. But what was his surprise when
he and the farmer returned, to find that
tlie animal was simply a white, calf
which the farmer identified as his own
property.
“The feelings,el’ our young hero at this
stage inav be better imagined than dis
cribed. However, it may be remarked
that whenever an acquainahce wishes to
cause Joe ‘to wear the brow of care’ all
that is requisite is to introduce a white'
bear story.”
A Card.
Savannah, April 14. 1884.
Cut. John E. Bryant:
Dear Sir—On my return from Atlanta a
circular lias been put in my band which re
lates to you considerably. It is tlie old circu
lar of Atkins, YVilson, Clark, and others, of
1H77. published in nice pamphlet form and is
circulated far aud near. It sets you forth
rather vividly. You know what I mean.
Another one, I am told, is being prepared
which will set you forth from the time Col.
James Atkins kicked you out of the custom
house in Savannah in 1577 until the present
time. You have not held an office, you know,
since Unit ever memorable event, and 1 give
it as my opinion, that you never will
again hold an office of honor, prollt and trust
in Georgia. Y'our record is too notoriously had.
Fourteen months ago 1 was in Gen. Grant’s
room at YVillard’s Hotel, in Washington, and
heard him say that during his two terms as
President he became well acquainted with
you. lie said Gen. Longstreet would not he
removed. He said if Gen. Longstreet should
die or resign you would not be appointed to
fill his place."
You know I have stood, by you for years
with whatever influence 1 had and with my
money. The monev is gone, and yon ure, gone.
You ought, iu my opinion, to leave Georgia
and not stand a day longer in tlie wav of the
success of the Republican party. While men
will not follow you, and colored men will not
follow you. Every man, white or colored,
who knows you well, knows you to.be acanting,
ranting, whining, sniveling -hypocrite, going
about serving the devil under tlie cloak of re
ligion. Those men in Atlanta and elsewhere
in the State who tolerate and indorse you do
so having no faith iu the world in you, and
are utterly w’thout confidence in you. No
man tharever made a track in Georgia is so
cordially and thoroughly despised as you
are.
Y ou are known everywhere as a tramp, a
dead beat and a villain—a most incorrigible
liar. Just think of votir sitting in tlie parlor
of Emory Speer in Washington in my presence
aud telling him vou had done everything von
could do to elect" liim (Speer) to Congress in
the face of the fact that you had taken a bribe
from the Democrats, and did all you could jo
defeat him. The loss I have sustained at your
hands I shall not live to recover, hut I hope to
live to see you meet with your just deserts.
Y our obedient servant,
Edward C. Wade.
Poison Oak.
Spartanburg, S. C., March 13,1884.
Y’our most valuable medicine (Swift’s
Specific) bas done me so much good that
I feel like saying this for the benefit of
those who suffer like 1 did. I was pois
oned by poison oak, and saw not a well
day for six years, until 1 used Swift’s
Specific. In the six years I used almost
every kind of medicine, but none had the
desired effect. After using six bottles of
Swift’s Specific I am restored to per
fect health— with not a sign of that awful
poison left!
