Premiums Given Out in Different Classes and Grades YsSterday. The fine reputation of this excellent in stitution was never better sustained than on yesterday, when an apreciative audience gathered in the large hall of the building to witness the commencement exercises. When the “Persian March” sounded forth from the well trained fingers of Miss es Fartin. Bryan, Gewinner and Kelly, a seemingly never ending line of fair young girls and little folks attired in white, filed into the hall and took the places assigned them. When all were seated, three little girls. 'Misses Zink. Newcomb and O’Con nor. delighted the audience with “Tyro lienne Variee.” played without notes. A recitation by Miss Madge Huthnance fol lowed, spoken in clear, sweet rhythm. “Mexican Butterfly Dance” came next on the program, and in it lovers of music found a rare treat. Mt. de Sales has reason to be proud of its mandolin club, as the seven young la dies constituting it evinced yesterday an unusual degree of proficiency. Special mention must be made of Miss Julia Roo ney’s admirable execution. Miss O'Connor as piano accompanies! was admired for the spirited manner in which she* executed her part, and her per fect s«lf-possession at the instrument. Miss 'Mary Rose Rooney’s essay, "An gels Unawares,” was listened to with breathless atention. and when the fair reader concluded, a just meed of applause was accorded her. Following Miss Roonev came Miss Mock with “La Scintillata.” The finished ren dition of this difficult number proved Miss Mock to be gifted with a high degree of musical talent. A chorus and drill by the wee tots, en titled “Patty Cake." took the audience by storm, and was indeed a beautiful feature* of the exercises. A piano quartet. '-March from Titus.” was next well rendered by Misses O'Con nor. McKenna. Duffy, Verno Loh. Loretta Newcomb and Claire Foster, called forth much ethuslasm by their recitations. ' The musical gem of the morning was a piano solo. “Rhapsodie Hongroise." No. 12. rendered with brilliant effect by Miss Kate Long. Miss Long has the soul of the true artist, and as an accomplished pian ist. reflects credit on her training at Mt. de Sales. “Merry June” was a charming chorus sung by the entire class, and the sweet, clear voices, in perfect time, ringing out MACON NEW 3 FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 17 1898. in glad melody, thrilled the hearts of all present with joy. The piano quartet, "William Tell,” play ed by Long, Murphy, Mock and Kelly, was a finished effort in every sense of the word. A grand march and hoop drill called forth hig praise. The smilax wreathed hoops were han dled dexterously by the young ladies, and figure after figure followed in quick suc cession, holding the audience spellbound with the poetry of motion. After the awarding of honors and pre miums, Miss Anie Mock read her vailedic tory, entitled, "The Necessity of Ideals.” Miss Mock touched all hearts by the beau tiful rendition of her theme, there were few dry eyes in the audience, when in tremulous tones she bade the final fare well to Mt. de Sales. Rev. Father Brislan’s address to the graduates was full of force and pathos, wise advice, and gentle admonition. Never will his impressive words be forgotten by those who had the pleasure of listening to him. Rev. Fathers Merriwether, Gore and Roydhouse occupied prominent places, while scattered through the audience were many of the alumnae, who had come from other cities to honor the occasion. 'Mt. de Sales has again won well merited laurels, and our earnest wish is that this excellent instituion may continue to flour ish through the patronage of our citizens and the people of Georgia in general. The good sisters deserve the high esteem of our comunity, andc may the next scholasti year prove even a more briliant success than this. A Texas Wonder. HALL’S GREAT DISCOVERY.

A prudent and careful man will keep a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house, the shift less fellow will wait until necessity com pels it and then ruin his best horse going for a doctor and have a big doctor's bill to pay besides; one pays out 25c, the other is out a hundred dollars and then wonders why his neighbor is getting richer while he is getting poorer.

Officers Do Not Think Spaniards Will Showl Much Resistance. THREE DIFFERENT KINDS Os Fighters Are to be Met Upon the Island by Shaffers Army When It Gets There. AV ashingon, June 17.—Army officers who have been reading the recent news from Cuba are discussing with great confidence the ptospect of an encounter ot the United (States troops with those of Spain. .The superioity manifested by the United States marines at Guantanamo in fighting the soldiers of Pando’s army confirms some opinions that had been lormed upon reports given by General bee and other Observers of the Spanish soldiers. The information of the war department is that three different classes of fighting men will be met by the forces of the United States. The most annoying, and the least numerous, are the guerillas com posed almost exclusively ot an outcast class of blacks, fit tor ipr'ison if they 'have not just been released to do duty in the service of the country that released them. They are not likely to give or to look for quarter, and may be expected to be guilty of atrocities to the dead or to prisoners in battle. They never fight in bodies, but scatter in the bush and have some craft of the <woods and the trail. Another sort of soldier to be looked for is the volunteer. He is a Cuban attached to ■Spain, and he dislikes the insurgent in tensely and will fight stubbornly, but with out great military skill. These are not looked for in great numbers at the east end of the island, but in and about Havana they are numerous and well equipped. They have better notions of drill than the regulars, but they are not inclined to get up early in the morning to fight. From such information as the army has, the third class, made up of the Spanish regulars, will be the most numerous and the least to be feared. They have not been well cared for by Spain, they have no such discipline and drill as the men of the United States army, they do not know what it is to march long distances; insuf ficient food has reduced their ability for energetic work; they have no hostility to the Cuban and they will fight because they cannot choose to do otherwise. Some of the officers of the army who have been looking into the conditions of the United States forces say they will not be surprised to hear that the subjugation of the Spaniards in Cuba will turn out to be very much such a task as the army of the United States undertook in the Mex ican iwar, .when the progress towa.rd the city of Mexico was .scarcely obstructed. 'None of the Spanish soldiers have ever been in anything like a battle. They have been beset by small insurgen't bands, when they couldn’t avoid them and they have some times discharged their (Mauser rifles into the brush in the hbpe that there was something to hi't. The experience of meet ing with armed forces that will not .run when attacked will be an entire novelty to them. If 500 marines could penetrate five miles into the enemy’s country with such suc cess as was met at Guantanamo, army men and navy men, too, believe that 'the regi ments of the army will soon demonstrate their fitness to “do up” 'the Spaniards in conflict. To the marines the experience they have been having was new. No't one in ten of them has ever had anything ex cept barrack experience, varied by duty on (board ship in piping times of peace. The infantry and cavalry of 'the army have had some fighting experience. They have learned on the plains seme lessons abou.t tackling foe. For many reasons merely suggested here army officers look for interesting reports as soon as General Shafter’s men get ashore and are afforded a chance to use their Krag-Jorgensen rifles. “If,” said one of them, “there is any Spanish force 'to (be found in the open or in the bush, our infantrymen and dis mounted cavalry will find and fight them with good appetite regardless of numbers. Only those who have come in contact with the regulars of the plains know angthing about 'them. “Unless Blanco and Pando have been concealing the good qualities of their fight ing men, and thus have deceived us to lead us on it is my opinlion that in the first en gagement our troops will make it plain that in an open field or even protected by works, the men of the United States forces will outmatch them. Our men will prove so superior that we will wonder very soon why Shafter wanted as many a« .15,000 troops to capture Santiago and clean out the east end of the island.” OAs-romA.
