Tickets 50 cents. On sole at John 8. Hoge Co., Cherry street To the Editor of The Telegraph: X want to say something about the so cial functions that were tendered the Georgia party at Madison. They con stitute no small part of the history of the great trip. The President’s Reception. The first of these was the president’s reception, which occurred on the even ing after we arrived. There was a great crush, and the elite of the city and college swarmed through the pal atial rooms of the president’* home, and made the occasion one of rare merriment anil pleasure. There were several great punch bowls filled with a dark brown liquid that the ladies dished out In glasses to the crowd. At first I was a little shy of It, but after awhile Judge Sam Adams came up and decided to sample It and see if it was a Methodist drink. The judge is a strict prohibitionist, but after one of the fair ladles had Ailed a glass for him, and he had sipped it cautiously, he cried out to me: “It is all right; there Is no danger In It” And suro enough it was a species of lemonade, colored dark brown, and spiced with cloves and ginger, but had no alcohol in it. As tho chancellor, Mr. Hill, and Governor Terrell, with their wives, were receiving with the president, could understand that there must have been some consideration given to the subject. The Georgians were still prohibitionists, even In Wisconsin.. Tho Ladies’ Luncheon. I do not montlon here the splendid luncheon given on tho second after noon to the ladies of our party at the home of Mrs. Daniels, wife of the pro fessor of chemistry, and a cousin of Mr. Peabody. It was said to have been unrivalled of its kind and afforded in finite pleasure to all those who at tended. Dinner Parties. On last evening the citizens threw open their homes and Invited the en tire pafty to dine with them. We were divided into sections, some dining with the governor, some with tho president of tho university and others at various other homes in the city. Your correspondent and the little woman who presides over his house hold In the character of Queen Tlta, with Governor and Mrs. McDaniel and Mr. and Mrs. Myers, were Invited to take dinner with Mrs. Governor Fair- child at the old Fairchild homestead, skirting Lake Monona on the cost. She is the widow of Gen. Julius Fairchild, who was thrice governor of Wisconsin, and served as ambassador to one of the great European nations. An educated, refined and most excellent lady of the old school, she had dined with crowned heads herself and know how to mnke her guests welcome and appreciative of her lavish hospitality. I had the honor of taking to the table the daugh ter of the house. Visa Fairchild, most beautiful young lady; In fact, I think she was by odds the best looking of all the young ladles that I met In Wisconsin. Three of the college professors—one of whom, Dr. Scott, was accom panied by his wife—dined with us. The dinner was magnificent, the very poetry of eating; the highest development of the cuisine. I wish I could describe It. The table was feature. One of the ladles of our par ty guvo me this brief outline: "It was highly polished in durk oak, with dam ask runners at sides and ends, leaving corners of table with wood exposed. The decorations were center piece of largo white chrysanthemums, together with a silver bowl Ailed with a pyra mid of oranges and roses. At one end were geranium leaves, neatly nrranged, and at the other targe bunches of white grapes hung upon a silver trel Between these were placed com potea on dlshea of old English silver. Beautiful gluss, cut after colonial pat terns, made the effect still more bril liant.” There were eight courses, and the earth, air and sea had furnished their tribute to make up the same. Glorious art of cooking! The very perfection or our civilisation is surely found In this. The Governor’s Reception. At 0 o'clock that same evening the doors of the governor’s mansion were thrown open to the Georgians, and for more than two hours the people of Madison flocked to the scene to shake the hands of their fair Southern guests. The crush here was worse than at the presidents’ reception. Governor LaFol lette and his wife gave us a real down South welcome, and so cordial was every one that we really could not tell which of our party they were gladdest to meet. They made ua all rejoice that we had come, and kept our hearts when we left The Journey Home. By 12 o’clock that night we were all on board scheduled for Chicago, where we spent Thanksgiving day. While most of the party became the guests of Dr. Harper at the celebrated Chlca- a luncheon MRS. BEDINGFIELD, Private School of Shorthand & Typewriting 120 First Street ’Phone 3030. Macon, Ga. go Universltly and enjoyed i and some speaking with him, tho little madam and myself went on a trip over the city. She had already, In company with Mrs. Hill, the chancellor's excel lent wife, driven that morning along tho lake front and ascended tho great Masonic Temple so as to get her bear ings by looking over the tops of all the houses of the city and counting the white caps tumbling In from Lake Michigan under the stress of a fierce northwest gale. Tho view was inspir ing, no doubt, but the weather was quite the reverse, as I Judged from her ruby nose and watery eyes when Bhe came down. But my Innings arrived In the after noon. We climbed a street car togeth er, and rode as far as the car went, and then walked back to the Illinois Central depot with the wind In our faces! Oh, that wind! It cut like a hundred sharp stilettos. But wc four miles of the great city any how. We stopped at the publlo library on our way back, and enjoyed the pleas ure of looking through the Interior of this exquisite piece of architecture. : have never seen anything that compar ed with It in splendor of decoration, except the congressional library Washington. The staircase in tho Chi cago Institution probably surpasses any one thing in the former magnlfl cent structure. It la a very dream of unrivaled beauty. A singular thing happened to us here. As It was a holiday, tho library was closed, but the attendant, hearing a sharp exclamation of disappointment from us, as we turned away, called us back and learning that we were stran gers, Invited us In, and took us through the building. When we went to leave we offered to divide our store of small change with him but ho courteously yet firmly declined to take anything whatever. He suld he was delighted to show strangers over the buildings and always did so free of charge. Wo took his name, and In the course of our In qulrles found he was a great friend of Mayor Harrison, who rules over Chlca We told him we had shaken hands with tho mayor once, and that our people down South set much store by him and hoped to see him elected pres ident somo day. Mr. Howell of our party had told the madam that she ought not to come to Chicago without seeing the store of Marshall Field & Co., which he claim ed to be about the largest of Its kind in the world. So, we looked It up and found Mr. Howell was certainly right. We went round It, looked tnrough Its great departments, and when we had finished, unanimously decided that If there was anything larger In Chicago we hadn’t time to see It. It is a won derful emporium, covering a wholo square In tho heart of the city, with everything under the sun to sell, ap purently, from an ostrich feather to diamond tiara. Mr. Peabody as a Host. Mr. Peabody did not accompany us on our return, but remained In Madl son, Intending to proceed thence dl rect to New York. Nevertheless he kept up with us on the Journey, dinner that evening in the car each guest found on his or her table beautiful vase of cut flowers—chrys anthemums that nodded their crown ed heads, like kings on gala days white and red roses of the most ex qulslte loveliness, distilling perfume through the whole train, ferns nnd Ivy vines adorning the walls of the car about the tables with indescribable grace and beauty. In our walk that evening the Madam had passed a flower store and stopped to price a few roses and chrysanthe mums, but found they were so awfully dear she decided she could afford pay for only one chrysanthemum nnd carried It for nearly four miles my hand. But here, before her eyes dozen fresh bunches of great white chrysanthemums nodded their wel come to the guests, nnd the red roses she had so longed for, und yet r.outdn 1 afford to buy that afternoon wero lavishly displayed In beautiful glass vases on every table. And best of nil, Mr. Myers, who rspresented Mr. Pea body on the return trip, passing through the car, said to each member of the party that the flowers were tho gift of Mr. Peabody to his guests Thanksgiving day, and that wc were to take them home with us, vases and all. Ths little Madam was In rap tures. Bhe gathered up one of the vases full of the red roses and hurried to her stateroom with it When she had closed the door and set the vasi on the water cooler, she said to me the strictest of confidence: “Well, Mr. Peabody isn’t married, but he Is cer tainly depriving some woman of good husband. A man as thoughtful as this shows him to be, would surely make any woman happy.” And I think all the party would have agreed with her, for he bad certainly made every onu happy by his kindness on this trip. Tho Madam says she means to keep that vase as long as she lives, and that any of her friends can see It oi the mantel of the sitting room, when ever thsy visit her, for she says it Uriel, a beardless Jewish youth, who goes out to play David to Sennacherib's Goliath but whose heart In the end la too soft to slaughter. Instead the young man, pass ing over the hot highway from Jerusalem to the Invader's camp, falls in with a beautiful woman nnd a little child still more beautiful, nnd saves both from a scouting party of the enemy, only to loso them again to another party. Then young Uriel himself la taken and led before the great King of the East, and. playing Wisely upon the harp nnd wearing u countenance without guile, wins the King's high favor. tho spot therefore with Eastern magnificence he is wondrously exalted above all the nobles and the captains from Mesopotamia with their beautifully curled hoards. So Uriel sees things and has adventures, nnd finds again the pretty little girl, nnd rides In the king's chariot at the king's side, while the king reviews the ho*t which Is to de stroy Jerusalem. Uriel sees, too, tho nme host wrecked by that mysterious Mast ’ of the Almighty, and the horses and the chariots nnd all the surviving curled warriors In headlong tumultuous “'ght toward Nineveh, the king In tho ...Idst. crying to the pretty youth to fol low and bo rich nnd great In that far land.—New York Times Saturday Rovlow Books. “Mr. Pendleton has written a vivid and picturesque story of the Assyrian Invasion of Judea by Sonnacherlb. . . .

Since the statement was made some time ago that Recorder Nottingham bad given a prisoner a sentence In tho barracks and hud required him to fur nish food for himself, there has been considerable discussion as*to the pe culiar kind of sentence and whether It would be enforced. It now develops that the requirement of furnishing food for himself was only an addition of costs of the prison sentence and the negro has had the choice of paying his bills or remaining In the barracks a longer period of t»me. James Sweet was sentenced to flve days’ Imprisonment fir violating a city ordinance In stopping a retail wagon more than ten minutes at one point. He was required to move and the offi cer demanded this of him. On failure to obey the negro was arrested and carried before the recorder for pun ishment. He was given the sentence, with the addition of the coats of the term In prison. He had the money to pay this and chose to make bis term shorter In the payment He requested that the recorder give him the privi lege of paying the entire fine and thus secure his liberty, but this was denied and he was forced to serve out the prison sentence. This was done In or der to make the sentence severer than the mere payment of a fine. The negro has served out his sen tence and has paid the costs of the provisions used in order to shorten hie term of imprisonment. The negro would have been fed aa the other pris oners are cared for if he had not been able to pay his own bills. He has been given fore with the other prla oners, but the only difference is the requirement that ho furnish enough to pay the coats of his a stay with the station K*rg*:tnt. “Our glorious post Is but a prrssge of our future.
