THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.
HOW THE DAY WILL BE OBSERVED
IN SAVANNAH.
Regatta and Races at Thunderbolt—
Artillery Practice at Isle of Hopo
Picnics at Greenwich Park and Mont
■ gromery and Base Ball in the City—
Cheap Fares on the Railroads.
The “Glorious Fourth” will, as usual, lie
observed in n quiet way in Savannah.
Bavnnnahians do not celebrate the day as
they did years ago. It has become more a
day for social enjoyment than for an out
burst of patriotic enthusiasm. The day
being a legal holiday, the hanks, exchanges
and public offices will bo closed. The mili
tary will parade in the morning, and the
rest of the day will be given up to general
amusements. ,
The Savannah Yacht Club's regatta, the
Chatham Artillery’s picnic and target prac
tice at Isle of Hope, the Knights of Labor
picnic at Montgomery, the Catholic Library
Association’s picnic at Greenwich Park, the
Thunderbolt races, and base ball in the city,
will be the principal events of the day. The
cheap rates ol’ fare on the railroads afford
an opportunity for those who desire to visit
other places to do so easily.
THE THUNDERBOLT ItKOATTA.
The Savannah Yacht Club regatta will
take place at Thunderliolt under the club’s
auspices. The steamer Pope Catlin has been
chartered for the dnv and will leave the
citv at 11 o’clock, taking the guests and
members to the club house The race will
be started at Li o’clock. The course will be
to the Warsaw buoy and return for first
and third class yachts, while the fourth and
fifth classes w ill only turn the stako boat at
Cabbage Island and return.

greater interest. If there is a g<xxl wind
the race will be finished early in the day, as
the start will be prompt and the distance to
the buoy and return is only 214 nautical
miles. The prizes to bo sailed for are SSO
each for the first and third classes, and $35
each for the fourth and fifth classes.
ARTILLERY AT ISLE OF HOPE.

0:25 o’clock. The company will take out its
gatling gun and the men will be drilled in its

duy so as to make the most of it, and the
members and their guests will hardly fail
to have a jolly Fourth.
KNIGHTS AT MONTGOMERY.

gomery, where they will hold their annual
picnic. The first train will leave Anderson
street at 7:MO a. in. Tne next will leave at

his troupe and give u free exhibition, and
the base ballists will enliven the occasion
with a display of their science.

ciation, which will be held at Greenwich
Park, promises to lie a very pleasant
event Several trains will run to
the park in tin* morning and in the after-
Jioon a train will run every hour after 3
o’clock. The fact that Tybee will not ho
open to the public and the regatta being
held at Thunderliolt, which is in sight of the
park, will largel y increase the attendance at
the picnic. Extensive arrangements have
lieon made by the young gentfen ion of the
Library Association for the comfort and
enjoyment of all their guests, and a delight
ful day is promised all who attend. A
feature connected with the celebration, and
one which particularly commends itself, to

served on the grounds at very reasonable
prices.

THE BALL AND BAT.
Nashville Shut Out by Memphis—The
League and Association Games.
Nashville, July 2.—The Nashvilles cele
brated their return home by an overwhelm
ing defeat at the hands of Memphis to-day.
The audience was small, the game uninter
esting, and ttio result unsatisfactory to
everybody hut the Memphians. Umpire
Suck gave ono very tough decision that
gave the visitors two mint, but the locals
were beaten away out of sight anyway.
Smith carried oft' the honors of the
day, being hit safely but four times,
and he was well supported. The visitors
worked as one man and played to win from
the start, while the locals seemed to lose
heart at the loginning. Defeat was not so
astonishing, but to be shut out disgusted
everybody. There will be an attempt to
play two games Monday. Tfife innings were:
Nashville 000000000—0
Memphis. .03102010 *—7
Batteries -Nashville : Gibson and Hayes;

Base hit* Nashville 7. Memphis 10.
Errors- -Memphis 1, Nashville 3.

two years ago. He was a private soldier in
the Florida war.
The fourth annual meeting of the Mer

Indian Spring.
The attention of invalids and pleasure
seekers is sjiecially directed to the card of
the Elder House, which appeals elsewhere.
The capacity of the premises has lieen
greatly enlarged from time to time by the
proprietor, Mr. W. A. Elder, mid from the
fluttering opening a brilliant souson is an
ticipated. Ed A. Elder. Esq., is the cour
teous and popular general manager of the
establishment, and he says that scores of en
gagements for rooms have lieen made in
advance. At this early stage of the season
the number of guests exceeds 100. Among
those here for the summer are Mi's. F. IL
Woodruff and Mrs. J. TANARUS, Anderson, of Chat
tanooga, Tenn ; Mix. George J, Zehnbnr
and two daughters, from I’ulatka, Fla.; and

various parts of the country not noted. A
band of music with five pieces has been en
gaged for the season. The table tare is ex
cellent, and chickens, lax mutton and fresh
eggs and butter are served in abundance.
The water of this famous spring needs no
commendation. It is confessed to lie unri
valed in female diseases and kidney and
stomach troubles. Read the cord of Mr.
Elder.

We would respectfully announce to the cit
izens of Savannah and vicinity, that in con
sequence of not being able to fill the large
number ot orders received since our visit
here, w e will remain for two days longer.
Thanking you for your very liberal patron
age, I remain yours respectfully.

QUIET ON THE WHARVES.
LONGSHOREMEN ATTEMPT NO IN
TERFERENCE WITH NEW MEN.
They Deny That They Were Engaged
in an Assault—The Lumbermens’ As
sociation Repudiated by the Well
known Organizations—The Strikers
Not Wanted Back at Work-New
Men in their Places.
The striking longshoremen were quiet yes
terday, spending most of their time at home
or in meeting. They are still standing out for
their demands, and are determined not to go
to work until they get what they ask for.
They have < -arried the matter so far, how
ever, that they will probably not go back to
work at all. The merchants do not svant
them, and are doing so well without them
that it is doubtful if they would permit them
to go back even if they should so desire.
THE POLICE ON DUTY.
Yesterday morning two jxilicemen made
a trip to the wharves, but finding that
everything was quiet, they reported that
the squad which was on duty the day before
need not be called out. The men were on
hand attending to their labors without in
terruption. The vessels were in no wise in
convenienced, for there were more men
asking for work than could be employed,
and had the strikers been there seeking to
return they would only have been in the
way. The}* have given up their positions
and quit, and now they will have to seek
occupations elsewhere. The new men
are not as familiar with the
loading of vessels as were the old ones, of
course, but they learn their duties readily
and work much harder than do the negroes
who constitute the association.
THE STRIKERS NOT RECOGNIZED.
The members of the old and known as
sociations of longshoremen have notified
the lumber merchants that they do not
recognize, nor are they backing the new
organization. They say that it is composed
of the class of negroes that drift from one
point to another and never settle down to
steady work anywhere. The association
was formed about three months ago and
has done nothing since but breed disturb
ance.
One of the merchants said yesterday that
if the men had asked for an advance of 10
or 15 per cent, they might have received it,
but when it came to 100 per cent, it was
more than they could stand, and more than
they intended "to stand. The wharves will
lie kept under the eye of the police until the
strikers have given up the fight, but
no further trouble is anticipated, as
they understand now that the merchants
will take no chances, but will call on the
law for protection whenever it is needed.
The strikers claim that none of the members
of the Lumbermen’s Association were in tlie
crowd that assembled to attack the work
men on Bilbo canal bridge, but the state
ment is received as similar averments which
are invariably made by strikers whenever
disorderly crowds assemble.
Local Personal.
Prof, and Mrs. Leo. W. Mehrtens will
leave this afternoon on the steamer Chatta
hoochee for New York, whence they will
sail for Europe next week. Mrs. Mehrtens
will visit the principal musical conservato
ries on the continent, and, with her hus
band, will spend several months in studying
under German masters.
Mr. Thomas F. McCabe, who was with
Robert Downing in the “Gladiator” last sea
son, has received a very flattering offer for
a renewal of his engagement for the coming
season. Mr. McCabe is a talented actor,
and Manager Mack will secure a good man
if Mr. McCabe engages with him. Mr. Mc-
Cabe has made many friends in Savannah
during the short time he has been with the
Fords.
William Kehoe, Esq., and Patrick O’Con

seven summers in Savannah, and Mr.
O’Connor thirty-three. Both gentlemen
having been hard workers, and having been
successful in business they feel that they are
entitled to a recreation. They will take
with them the best wishes of the commu
nity of which they are honored citizens for
a pleasant voyage and a safe return.
