Augusta, Ga., Dee. 14.-The ‘Au gusta exposition closed to-night after being opened thirty days. It has not only been a great industrial triumph but a financial success. It has attracted here many notable people during. it continuance, and has been the. means of giving Augusta a marvelous advertise ment throughout the country. To lion, Patrick Walsh, more than to anybody, is due the success that has been achiev ed; indeed, but for his determination, energy and resources, there would have been no exposition. The community fully appreciates the fact, and he can have anything lie wants in Augusta for the asking. Indeed, he may have a bur densome honor thrust upon him without the asking for, a prominent physician said to the Morning News correspondent. “The people of Augusta must as one man make Patrick Walsh mayor next year by acclamation.” Despite the sudden bleak chage in the weather, the people flocked to the expo sition to-day; and the great show went out in a blaze of glo.y. - TO DESTROY* DERELICTS.

The navy department has been informed that the .British government will co-operate with the United States in the removal of im pediments to navigation on the high seas. This intention of Great Britain is the result of the recent agitation in con gress and in parliament and by various commercial bodies setting forth the clatt ers to life and property from floating Year’s Support.

Tlie Other Members of the Family Too Ill to Bury the Bodies. Middletown, N. Y., Dec. 17.—Sit ting side by side in their large, old fash ioned rocking chairs by the fire, the bodies of Susan and Elizabeth Raynor, of Sugar Loaf, were discovered late yes terday afternoon. The women had died 24 hours befere of pneumonia, and al though two other sisters and a brother were in the same hoase they had been too ill to care for the bodies of their dead or to notify their neighbors. The family, which Is well to do, rang ed in age from 45 to 65. The two de ceased sisters were in the neighborhood of 60 years old. The surviving members of the family appear little moved by tbe sad death of the sisters. It is said that au effort will be made to down Beu Russell in tbe Second district, but it will surely fail.
