8 SWKET GIRT. GRADUATES. ST. VINCENT DE PAUL ACADEMY’S COMMENCEMENT. The Savannah Theatre Filled by a Brilliant Audience The Exercises of the Evening-Awarding the Honors * Military Drill That Astonished the Spectators The Close of a Re markably Successful School Year. The Savannah Theater never held a more brilliant audience than assembled last night to witness the commencement exorcises of St Vincent de Paul Academy. Before the curtain rose the seats were filled and the aisles were crowded by those' more willing to bear the fatigue of standing than miss the exercises. In the reserved seats in the balcony were the pupils of the lower classes of the school, and the remaining por tion was occupied by those w ho could not find room below. Even the “owis roost held its accustomed patrons, who were loud in their praise of the fair graduates. When the curtain nw Miss Annie E. Goette appeared on the stage and delivered the salutatory, a neat and pretty address, to those whose interest in the graduates brought thorn then* to witness the com mencement It was followed by a chorus from "Sicilian Vespers." which was given by a class of well trained vocalists* "The remaining part of the programme was as follows: Instrumental quartette, “Gypsy Maiden's Waits*' t Black Misses X.

Arranged by Vlllu- Misses V. Masters and M. Stuart. At this point the stage was cleared and the waiter drill and march began. Seven teen young and pretty girls, clad in scarlet skirts and white jackets, trimmed with red. with pretty Zouave caps set jauntily on their heads, filed out nnd t**gan their drill. In their hands they carried hammered brass waiters instead "f muskets, all save the Captain, who wore a real sword. The com pany was in command of Miss Annie K Goette. Miss Bel Dangaix acted as Or derly Sergeant, They marched according to Upton’s tactics, but introduced some of the prettiest manoeuvres of zouave drill. There was no little surprise expressed at the excellence and accuracy of the marching, and, indeed, it would have done credit to the crack military companies of Savannah. The manual of arms would be ltanl to describe. Some of the commands were novel and striking. “Caress arms" ■was one of them, and the anus of the young ladies were tenderly folded over the waiters. "Forest Citv arms'* wns another, and the gallant soldiers loaded their waiters with kisses and fin'd them at the audience. At the word “Fire!" every waiter fell to the floor with a noise that would have put a brigade of cavalry to rout. The company was called out a second time, and then the zouave drill was given. When they had left the stage they remained off for a few minutes, and a third time they were ordered out and drawn up in line. At the command “Good night, arms," they turned the backs of the waiters to the audience and upon each waiter was a large red letter, making the words, “T-11-A-N-K-S. O-O-O-D S-Ml-H-T.” This was received with up roarious applause amid which the company beat a retreat. The academic honors were then dis tributed by Father MeConville.

The commencement was not only delight ful In itself, but it s|mko volumes for the school from which the young ladies had come. The addresses themselves, as well as the manner in which they were delivered and the musical efforts, bespoke a thorough ness and care in training that deserves the highest praise, and the good Sisters under whose gentle guardianship these young ladies have been educated deserve the high est commendation for their 0X1*611601 and faithful work. THE ARTESIAN WELLS. Well No. lO Flowing 050 Gallons of Water a Minute. Work on the new artesian wells at the water works is progressing as rapidly as it very well can. Supt. Miller hopes by the time the new “pump ends" which have boon ordered arrive to liave a sufficient artesian water supply to furnish the city without pumping any river "liter. At present the proportion of artesian water is about fit! j>er i*ent. Well No. 10. the last well finished, is flowing a ti-ineh stream from a depth of Atiifeet, tile lowest depth of any well in the chain. This is the strongest flow yet obtained. The water rises t<> a height of ?i£ inches above the ton of the pipe, and is flowing at the rate of 650 gallons a minute. The well is in the east mid west chain, about 100 feet enst of well No. 9. Supt. Miller is sat isfied that he has struck a larger vein of water than there is m the north anil south chain, and lie is confident that No. 11 and 12 wells, in the same chain, and which are yet incomplete, will have equally as strong a flow as No. 10. No. 11 is down something over 200 feet and the drill is now working in a hard rock. No. 12 is a four inch well and has just lieen lie gun. if the flow front the two unfinished wells is as strong ns that from the new six-inch well, Supt. Miller is satisfied that he will have a sufficient supply to give 0.500,000 gallons a day. At present the artesian wells connected with tin works are flowing alxnit 3.(HX> gal lons a minute. In order to furnish an arie quto supply for the city they must flow con siderably over t.(M' gallons. Superintendent Miller does not think that the building of a reservoir will be necessary to get rid of the gas in the pipes. When the system is completed, and all the wells ore connected with the works, valves will be placed upon the top of the pip***. so that the gas can be allowed to escape without passing into the pumps. O. S. S. COMPANY'S NEW PIER. To Be Ready for Use by Aug. 15, and to be Completed by Sept. 20. The Ocean Steamship Company's new pier in New York is licing pushed forward as rapidly as it can be. The work was lie gun in April, and it is expected that a part of the pier will lie ready for use by Aug. 15. The entire pier and the company’s office building will he finished, according to con tract. by Sent. 20. It is lie mg built on the site of the old pier, under the supervision of the New York lKx*k Department and will cost about. ? 1 :i'i, l * 10. The pier is GOO feet long. A part of it is now nearly ready for the iron superstructure. 11l frout of the pier is the company’s office building, a handsome and commodious tw o-story iron structure. Run ning through the centre of the building is a double driveway to anti from th** pier and a truck way. (hi the south side of the drive way are the clerks’ offices, express office, etc., and on the nprth side is the stairway leading to the second floor, where the agent's office, the superintending engineer's office, the jmssage department, waiting rooms and the main offices tor the management of the company's busi" ss are locat'd. General Manager Sorrel has just returned from New York, where he has been the past month in the company's interests, and before leav ing he cloned the contract for the coni nletion of the work. Tit- new pier will lx* No. ,'ls, the same number as the old one. nisi will lx* one of the most convenient ly arranged ar.d substantial piers on the river. Since April the company's steamers have been using pier 27, at the foot of Park place. THE Y. M. C. ASSOCIATION. Acting General Secretary Lebey’s Re port for June—The Attendance, Etc.

A Bitter Fight Between the Manufac turers of Temperance Drinks - Prices Cut One-Third—How the War Began and How It Has Been Carried On- More Than 1,000 Hogsheads of the Beverages Sold in Savannah An nually—A Few Figures That Cannot Tell Fibs. "Competition is the life of trade," says an old saw, and in this age of rapid progress the truth of the old adage has been proved time and again. But though competition is thereby a boon, it is by no means an un mixed blessing because of it. The merchant whose life is naturally one of peace, whose cares ought to end when he turns the key in his store door is forced to pass many a sleepless night and spend many an hour worrying over the advances his rival is making, while if it were not for competition he could quietly pocket his hundred or two per cent., and put his little nickel in the missionary box without begrudging the gift. Competition, like love, levels all ranks and in the warfare that it inspires railroad corporations and rag pickers, cotton asso ciations. and the manufacturers of the latest patent spiral wire bustles, participate. There is one business, however, that has hitherto been untroubled by the Kittles of commercial warfare. The clarion note of war has never before been heard within its peaceful precincts, but that peace has flown and now fierce, bitter and protracted is the struggle that is going on between the manufacturers of soda water, sarsaparilla and ginger pop. Not in some distant clime, untrod by the foot of lynx eyed special correspondents or "our own artist's", is this war raging, but here, with in the limits of Savannah and under the eyes of the blue-coated, gold-striped guardians' of the peace, yet it excited not as much inter est as would the news that another Irish tenant had been evicted or another cat had fallen down the Emperor William's chim ney while he was devouring fried fish, but for all that the war is leing bitterly waged. It is more fierce and cruei in its nature because of a race ques tion that is involved therein. There is a difference of blood, and for that reason both sides are fighting with all their micht and main. The cause of this disturbance of the jx-ace by the manufacturers of these nou ihtoxicatmg drinks dates back some weeks. 'An Irish firm was do ing a large and profitable business. Their customers were many, and were be coming more and more numerous. They added one or two German saloon keepers to their list, and gradually they were getting a large* Gvm.im patronage. The German manufacturers nt last realizixt that tivir countrymen were deserting them ar.d seek ing the side of down-trodden Ireland, so they put their heads together to see what could be done. Finally it was determined that they must visit the deserters and appeal to them on the sc *re of national pride, and national prejudice and try and win them back. It was also resolved that if such ar guments were of no avail they would resort to one that they were sure would be infalli ble, viz: a drop in the price. They entered the saloon of a prominent deserter, and as they approached the dispenser of liquid joy they said: "Yell, how you vasf 1 “Oh. purtv goot.” “How's heesne&c" “I don't can gomplain." “You sell of dot sody vaster much now!" “Oh. yas." "Yy you don't vas pying so much as you vas." “Oh. I pv mit dem oter fellers now." “Vat: pv mit dem Irish! Mine Got! in himniol! You don’t mit dem Irish drade ven dere is us vrom faterlandt here mit der same beesness in " "Oh, yas. I vas pleased mit dem Irish, uri I gets good stuff mit dem." “Den you don't dates some more vrom us Chermans?" “No, I dinks not." “Whise’ Yot you pay dem!" “Sevunty fife rends." “I sell you dot goots for seexty-fife." “Sent me seex dozen right away quick." Thus this pendulum swung back to its former position, but it was not destined to remain there long, for next morning when the Irish deliverer made his rounds and car ried in the usual supply he was not a little startle! to hear the old German -ay “Git mit you <*ud ofdisgviek. I don't want some of dot." “Well, did you iver hear the loikes of that.' What d** ye mane, ye durtv, ould, fat son uv a beer liarrei!” exclaimed the in dignant Irishman. The German gave an explanation of his change, whereupon the Irishman said: “Weil, lx* the si wl of St. Patrick, did yez iver. Docs ye be lie thinking I'll shtand by and let the loiks av thim he taking me bread out o'nie mouth loike that: Divil a cint "dll they lx* making af their sodv watlier fur these ux months comm, but oi'l bate thim vet Oil sell yez thot same fur fiftv cints.'' The pendulum made another vibration, but he has got no cheaper soda since then, for the Irishman wrack bed rock, and sola has been lying at Vie. a box or 25c. a dozen ever since, and the representative-, of each nationality are m ving heaven and earth to fix the recreant saloon keepers on one side or another before returning to oid prices, but it seems impossible to do so. for no sc* r.er does one side think it has them firmly than the other comes in, spends a quarter at the liar and pets an order. They are ttie bone of contention. They are to Germany and Ireland in Savan nah what Alsace ar.d Loraine are to Ger many and France in the ok! country. To the casual reader it might se>m that all this quarrel is over nothing, but not so. The carbonated v> - ; *r interest here i large and profitable. There are 219 licensed saloons in Savannah, and a barkeeper of long years' etner - nee estimates that each will seil, on an av -age, two boxes, or four dozen Ixittles of s,ia, sarsaparilla and gin- P*r pop combined ,-ach week. Avery little arithmetic will sh-nv that upx'ti that basis the annual sales " ill be 45.552 dozen, or 546,824 bottles, i me-fourth of that amount is sold at the K"e r class of saloons and I brings 10c. tier bur ie, making #l".6oper | annum. The ren. -. idcr is sold nt .V. and i it foot* up the roil .1 amount of $20,408 46. making a total of- tt.ltM that is raked in by the tireless arm of the harkoep'r every year for temperance drinks.

Two hundred people witnessed the Ori entals defeat the Warrens at the Base Ball Pnrk yesterday afternoon. The game was close and exciting from the time the first ball was pitched until the end. There were three men on bases for the Warrens and two outs in the ninth inning. The Warrens in the first inning stored two runs by Rossi tor's two-layrger. Horrigan’s single and a gass I mil. Their last run was made in the fth inning on a hit by Rossitor, an error of Curry and a sacrifice by llorrigan. The Orientals made a run on the second inuing on Furlong's two-lmgger and Schreck’s single. They made one on the fourth on an error of Gorman, who gave Buckley his base on balls, and by an error of Brown, and a hit by Curry. In the sixth inning they scored twice on a hit by Buttinier. who stole second and third aiid crossed the plate on Murphy’s hit. Mur phy scored on O'Connor's hit.
