A PLEASANT OCCASION.
PROMINENT STRANGERS IN THE CITY—
THEIR ENTERTAINMENT.
Among the strangers in the city yester
day registered at tbe Rankin House, were
several who are largely interested in South
ern enterprises, among them the Columbus
Iron Works of this city. The party was
composed of Mr. C. O. Gage, of Boston,
who was accompanied by his accomplished
and beautiful daughter, Miss Charlotte
Gage, whose keen wit and vivacity
make friends of casual acquaintances, Mr.
Louis P. Hart, of Savannah, and Mr. Sam
uel Lapharn, of Charleston. The party
are en route to New Orleans on business
and pleasure combined, and will proceed
thence to Galveston, leaving Miss Gage in
New Orleans where she will be the guest of
friends for several weeks.
Yesterday afternoon the party were
driven over the city to different points of
interest, the mills and other industries
being visited, Mrs Judge Duy accompany
ing Miss Gage in one of the carriages
and the gentlemen being joined by some
Columbus gentlemen under the guidance
of Judge W. H. Brannon. They were
much pleased wiih the evidences of the
thrift and progress of Columbus, and
greatly interested in the operations of the
several mills which were inspected.
At 6 o’clock last evening a dinner was
tendered the gentlemen at the Rankin
House by the officers of the Columbus Iron
Works, which was a model affair in its
character, the menu reflecting the highest
credit upon the experienced caterer of the
Rankin House, Mr. Burns. The dining
party was composed of Messrs. C. O. Gage
of Boston, L. P. Hart of Savannah, Sam
uel Lapharn of Charleston, Samuel White-
side of Savannah, Riley BrowD, John Pea
body, W. H. Brannon, Geo. B. Whiteside,
T. M. Foley and B. H. Richardson of Co-
iumbus. It was a pleasant social party,
the dinner being served in a private parlor
of the Rankin from the following menu:
Oysters on Half Shell.
Celery.
Consomme Julienne.
I'emartin.
Filet of Flounder, a la Normandie.
Potatoes D uchess,

(Cauliflower, Drawn Butter.
Veuve Cliquot.
Charlotte de llutse, a la Chantilly.
Mixed Cake. Bisque Glace.
Oranges, a l’Anglaise.
Cheese. Coffee.
Liqueur.
The occasion was a very enjoyable one,
enlivened with discussion of a social and
business character, and the time sped by
rapidly until 10 o’clock, when the festal
table was abandoned and the honored
guests made preparations for their depart
ure for Birmingham by the 10:50 train.
They were escorted to the depot aud bid
den a pleasant journey. The party will
remain in Birmingham tomorrow, visiting
the various industries in that city, and
will then leave direct for New Orleans.
Mr. Gage, who is a promiuent
Boston capitalist has been identified with
the business interests of the South since
prior to the war, aud has great
faith in the future of this
section. Mr. Hart, who is a young
man of fine business character, is Presi
dent of the Central Ice Company, whose
headquarters are in New Orleans. Captain
Whiteside is Vice-President, and Mr. Lap-
ham is Secretary and Treasurer, all prac
tical and successful business men.
A ROYAL BIRTH.
A S' N BORN TO EMPRESS AUGUSTA V.C-
TOBIA.
Berlin, December 18.—Empress Au
gusta Victoria, has given birth to a son.
Emperor William attended the perform
ance of Lanahauser at the opera house last
night. During the play his majesty w T as
handed a note, which announced the
accouchment of the Empress. He hur
riedly glanced over the note, and
then arose and hurriedly took his
departure for the palace. The
reason for his abrupt exit was communi
cated to the manager of the opera house.
He at once went upon the stage and an
nounced to the audience that the Empress
had given birth to a soil. The announce
ment was received with the greatest en
thusiasm, the audience rising to their feet
and shouting, “Long live the Emperor and
Empress.” The band played the national
anthem, the audience singing the words of
the hymn.
FAILURE OF MILL AGENTS.
Rrovidence, December 18. — Owen
Bros., agents for the Atlantic Mills, have
made an assignment to Charles H. Merin.
The liabilities are large, but the mills will
continue running as usual under the man
agement of Stephen O. Metcalf.
The failure will be a serious one. The
cause is the stringency in the money mar
ket. it is due primarily to the failure, five
years ago, of the woolen mills in New
Brunswick, which the Owens Bros, had
backed. They have since been taking up
the extended paper of that concern. The
last of this paper fell due recently, but
owing to the great stringency of the
money markets Owens Bros, were unable
to obtain the loans which were necessi
tated on account of the drain which this
note business had made upon their
finances.
The managers of the Atlantic Mills
state that the mills are not affected by the
Owens Bros, failure, and the latter’s lia
bilities are $1,000,000. Originally the
Owens Bros, controlled the stock of the
Atlantic Mills, but during the past nine
months $1,200,000 additional capital has
been invested, $(100,000 of which was in
the nature of preferred stock.

H VNGING AT SEALE.
ANN PATTERSON REPRIEVED, BUT STEP
FORD TO SWING.
At the fall term of Russell county cir
cuit court, Ann Patterson and Step Ford
were convicted of murder of the husband
of tbe former by administering poison.
Judge Carmichael sentenced the two to be
hanged on Friday, the 10th day of Decem
ber, which is today.
Yesterday information was received from
Montgomery to the effect that Ann Patter
son had been deprieved by Governor Jones
until January 10, in order that he might
look into thfc case more fully. This action
of Governor Jones was the result of a peti
tion signed by thirty-one ladies of Seale in
behalf of the condemned woman.
No reprieve has been granted as to Step
Ford, however, and he will be executed
today. Under the Alabama laws, execu
tions are private.
Walter Daniels, also colored, was sen
tenced to be executed on the same day, but
a reprieve has been granted for thirty days,
and it is thought that his sentence will be
commuted to life imprisonment.
The King’s Daughters’ Bazaar.—
The bazaar being held at No. 1007 Broad

attracts many visitors, and those who go
enjoy themselves to the fullest extent.
Lunches and meals are served day and
night, and the management is to be con
gratulated upon the successful manner in
which each department of the bazaar is
managed.
New Culvert on Eleventh Street.
—Mayor I)«zier has received plans for the

crosses the street. The new culvert will
be seventy feet wide, and will give ample
room for the heavy travel on that street.
The contract fo: the culvert has been let,
and work will b.e commenced in a short
time.
Did You Ever
Look on the Label
of your favorite baking powder to see
if all the ingredients were published ?
Some baking powders advertised as
“absolutely pure” are shown by the
official reports to contain injurious sub
stances, as ammonia or alum.
Housekeepers, therefore, who desire
wholesome food should refuse to buy
ANY baking powder unless all the
ingredients are frankly made known.
For years the ingredients used in
Cleveland’s Superior Baking Powder
have been published, and the analysis as
stated is verified by the highest testi
mony in the land.

THE WALKING DELEGATE.
GETTING IN HIS WORK AGAIN IN ALA
BAMA.
Nashville, December 18.—A special
from Birmingham, Ala., says: The coal
miners’ strike assumed a serious turn yes
terday and one that threatens to close
every industry in this district. The mem
bers of the Amalgamated Association of
Iron and Steel Workers held a meeting
yesterday and passed resolutions of sym
pathy, and pledged their support to the
strikers. They agree to refuse to work
with coal mined by convicts or scab
miners, if the strikers ask them to do so.
Patrick McBride, one of the executive
hoard of United Mine Worksers of Amer
ica, arrived here from Detroit Wednesday
night to look into the strike. He says if
he cannot settle it he will call out all the
iron and steei workers. This means the
closing down of all the rolling mills, foun
dries and machine shops, and 3000 more
men will join the ranks of tbe strikers.
The strike has already seriously injured
business, and there seems no prospect of a
settlement.
