PROGRAMS IH FULL For the Exercises Tonight—Annual Concert Last Night Was a Most Brilliant Affair. The art exhibition in the Wesleyan Col lege drawing rooms yesterday afternoon from 4 to 6 o’clock, was remarkably fine and well attended. The pictures and th* sketches displayed were of great merit and beauty. Among the portraits in mis were excellent ones of IMiss Colour, Miss Jean Conner, Miss Julia Goodall, Mr. Ayer, and a very handsome picture of Miss May Hazlehurst’s father in his confeder ate uniform. This last was done by Miss May Hazlehurst from a very small pic ture. Miss Hazlehurst has great talent, and exipccts to continue her are studies next year in Washington City. Miss Kath erine Ayer has exhibited among other things, two beautiful pieces of tapestry, and .Miss Clare Dowman, of Columbus, who seems to be generally gifted, displays some line work. All of the work is goad and many compliments were heard to the art pupils and to the teacher, Miss Mason, who, unfortunately, was too ill to attend the reception. The annual concert took place last night and was good evidence of the excellent work done in the music department. The competent teachers of music at the college are Professor Newman, Professor Gutten berger, Miss Loudon, Mrs. Shinbolser and Mrs. Clifford Wiliams. Mrs. Williams is the teacher in the vocal department, and her pupils were repeatedly encored last night. Among those who received great applause was Miss Coralie Scroggs, who played and was enthusiastically recalled. Miss ’Scroggs is the puipil of Mrs. Shin holser, and she and Miss Attie Moore are the only graduates in music this year Miss Moore is Miss Loudon’s pupil and her play ing was greatly admired. Among others on the program to receive praise were Miss Crittenden, Miss Earle, Miss Fincher, Miss Ruth Clark, Miss ißessie Sheats, Miss Bond, IMiss Mead, Miss Holloway aud Miss Gaston. This morning was “class day’’ of the seniors of 1898, and the following program ’Was followed: “En courant,”Godard Mis Margaret Persons. Prayer by Rev. Robert White. Song—“ Sweet May,”Barnby Misses Bond, Persons, Holoway, Scroggs, Gaston and Cavanaugh. Class History—l Miss Eugenia Pace, Daw son, Ga. Song—“ Who Knows?”Cowen Miss Bessie Gaston. Class Poem—’Miss Coralie Scroggs, Fort Valley, Ga. Song—“ Good-bye, Sweet Day,” ....Kate Vannah. Miss Mamie Holloway. Class Prophecy—Miss Maude Louise Rogers, Augusta, Ga. ■ElfenreignKroeger IMiss Caralie Scroggs. BEN’EDISTION. Miss Eloise Pickett, president of the class, presided with an ease and grace really remarkable, and indeed none of the young ladies gave any evidence of the akward embarrassment usual among school girls. The “class history,” by Miss Pace, of Dawson, was splendidly written, and the incidents of college life were so brightly told by her that the audience was both interested and amused, and applauded fre quently. The tribute paid by her to Pro fessor Derry iwas enjoyed by all the former Wesleyan girls who had studied latin un der him. The poet of the class was Miss Coralia Scroggs, who did her part well, and proved herself poet as well as talented musician Miss Rogers, of Augusta, was a charm ing prophet, and elighted the audience with her well described glimpses into the future lives of her class mates. The songs by Miss Gaston and Miss Holloway ami the instrumental numbers by IMiss Persons and Miss Scroggs were greatly enjoyed. The treasurer’s report showed a surplus of 5 cents after all debts had been paid, and a serious discussion arose .concerning the disposition of the amount. It was fi nally moved and seconded that both the former motions and the 5 cents be laid on the table. This was done. Tonight ’Miss Blayde’s eleocutlon class give their exhibition, and the occasion will undoubtedly be one of the most interest ing and entertaining features of Wesleyan Comencement.

Washington, (May 31 —It looks as though the project to raise the regular army to its maximum strength of about 62,000 men will have to be abandoned. The war de partment officials have practically given up hope of securing a greater force than 40,000. (Most of those who wish to serve at the front are desirous of entering the volunteer army and will have nothing to do with the regulars. This is inexplica ble to the military authorities, w'ho be lieve that the regular array offers greater advantages to a soldier and assures him better care while in the field. SAW FIVE WARSHIPS.

INDICTMENTS OF GRAND JDRY Randall Will Have to Pay the Penalty for Selling Li quor to Minors. CARR Wilt If WITNESS Against Stevens Who Has Been In dicted on Two Counts—Trial Week After Next. The special grand jury empannelled to investigate 'the killing of James Kershaw, at 'Randall’s saloon on last Tuesday, re turned four true bills yesterday as a re sult of their investigation. Two of these bills were against John Stevens, the negro who killed Kershaw. One of 'the bills is for murder and the other for assault with intent to murder in the case of John Carr, who was so bad ly shot in the face. True bills were also found against the Randalls, father and son, for selling liquor to minors. The Randalls deny that 'they have been in the habit of doing this, they say that Carr was over age and that Kershaw looked much older than he really was and that they had no means of telling. They sly 'that they were very careful about this but the grand jury had a num ber of witnesses before them and say that the evidence was direct and conclusive. It is not yet known when Stevens will be. given a 'trial. He is now confined m. the Fulton county jail for safe keeping. It is more than probable that he will have a hearing on next week though the acting solicitor’ general does not think that he will be ready for the trial by that time. He will, however, push the case as rapidly as possible. The feeling that existed at the time of the killing has died away to a large ex tent and there is now no danger of a as the outcome of the trial is no't doubted and it is looked upon as a certainty that the trial will result in a verdict if guilty and that Stevens will be hanged within the nex't sixty days. Youg Carr, who has been at the hospital since the tragedy is getting well again and will have but very little marks to show for the awful experience and 'the terribly mar row shave he had. It was sometime after the killing of Ker shaw before Carr was told of what had happened to his companion. When the first shot was fired Carr was outside the door and in the grocery attached to the bar. He did not see the effect of the shot that killed Kershaw and was running back to the assistance of his friend. He did mot see the young man as he lay behind the counter and while not entirely uncon scious himself at firs't he did not under stand what had happened but continually asked for Kershaw. It was feared that the shock of telling him of the effect of the death of Kershaw might be too much for him. As it was it was a terrible shock when the awful details were recounted to him. Carr will be the only new witness at the trial who did not 'testify at the coroner’s inquest. His evidence will clear up a good deal of what seems to be conclusive testi mony as to what took place in the bar before the killing and which led up to 'the tragedy. On this line the witnesses dif fer. IMorriesy, one of the men in the place at the time, says that before 'the trouble got up Carr leaned over the counter and struck at the negro with a salt cellar. This is positively denied by Charles Adams, who was also in the place and who says that there was positively no alterca tion prior to the killing except the words 'that passed. o ajbtoxvia.

Anderson, at Rossville, York county, Penn., who saw the hardest kind of service at the front, is now frequently troubled with rheumatism. “I had a severe attack lately," he says, “and procured a bottle of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. It did so much good that I would like to know what you would charge me for one dozen bottles.” Mr. Anderson wanted it both for his own use and to supply it to his friends and neighbors, as every family should have a bottle of it in their home, not only for rheumatism, but lame back, sprains, swell ings, cuts, bruises and burns, for which it is unequalled.

Dewey was the son or a rich man and had all the advantages that- money and a liberal education could give him. When his parents 'found that he was bent upon a career in the service of his country, they sent him to a college where he could re ceive special training to fit him for that kind of life. He could devote himself en tirely to his studies. He had a good voice and money ■was spent to cultivate it. The Episcopal church he belonged to and sang In at Montpelier, was attended by influen tial people, and the young man made friends with them. There was no difficulty in getting him an appointment to the naval academy at Annapolis. He went with the backing of one of the principal politi cians of the state—Senator Proctor. It goes without saying that he was a capa ble and studious young man or he could not have passed the examinations and held his place in the academy, no matter how strong the influences behind him. But op portunity is nine points in law, and young Dewey’s oportunrties came to him without very much difficulty. He married into a rich and influential family in New Hamp shire. The crowning sorrow of his life was the death of his •wife. Sampson was the son of a day laborer at Palmyra, N. Y., and he came into the world fifty-eight years ago, when his pa rents were in rather strained circumstan ces. He did his share towards the main tenance of the family by splitting wood, raking hay, and doing any chores he could find to do among the neighbors; but he kept on going to school. The lad's in dustry and indomitable pluck attracted at. tention. Congressman Morgan, of Wayne county, took an interest in him and gave him an oporrunlty to try for the naval academy. He passed his examination with flying colors and was graduated with hon ors in 1860. He stood higher than Com modore Schley, who was in the same class. He early realized the importance of good social conections to a young man who has to make his .way in the world, and he made the most of the oportunities that came in his way. He was a good tenis player, and the young ladies Invited him to their par ties on that account. He was of a retiring, almost taciturn, disposition, .but he tried hard to overcome it, and made many friends and his was an advantageous mar riage. CAGTOTITA..
