EMMET RIFLES TENDERED
FOURTH ANNUAL BALL
Large Gathering of Friends and Members of Other
Military Organizations.
More than forty couples assembled
last night at Chatham Artillery Hall
os the guests of the Emmet Rifles,
who tendered their fourth annual ball.
Promptly at 9 o’clock the orchestra
struck up the strains of the opening
number of the dance programme, and
a moment later the floor was filled
with the figures of the dancers. Un
til after midnight the dancing contin
ued. Many of the number were vigor
ously encored and the dancers seemed
never to tire of the pleasure that had
been provided.
Practically every military organiza
tion in Savannah was represented by
at least one of its officers and several
of the enlisted men. Everywhere were
the blue uniforms and white striplngs
of the infantry, the bars of the offi
cers with the white stripes across the
blue background adding a pleasing
touch to the colors’ effect.
The gray uniforms of the Volunteer
Guards, with the red stripes, added a
brighter coloring to the prevailing blue.
Here and there could be seen the red
of the artillery, and the gold of the
Mayal Reserves was largely In evi
dence. The brighter colorings were
provided by the ladies' dresses, and

and contains within its limit many
of the 'best citizens; and.

bert Squares, within this district, are
the only recreation places in this vi
cinity for the use of the people of this
district; and.
Whereas, These squares are sadly in
need of repair and are capable of be
ing beautified if given proper atten
tion.
Now, therefore, be It resolved, That
the Mayor and Aldermen are requested
to give immediate attention to the
needs of these squares, and that they
include in their financial budget for
the ensuing year such appropriation
as will be necessary to pave and beau
tify and adorn these squares.

H. Lang wu* issued a permit by the
building inspector, to add a second
story to a workshop at No. 1006 Mont
gomery street. D. R. Thomas was
tven a permit for the building of a
shsd at his coal yard at River and
W*st Broad slresta, and Mrs. Belle
M Middleton was given a permit for
hi** erection of a one-story frame, mt-
house si No. yit Fortieth street.
during the different numbers of the
dance programme the scene was a
bright one.
Pleasure was the chief object, and
for the time the strict rules of the
military were forgotten. The same
privileges were extended to the en
listed men as to the officers, and the
civilians who attended as guests of the
Emmets found themselves on the same
footing as the military men.
At an appropriate hour the dancing
was suspended, and an elaborate sup
per was served. This was prepared by
Mrs. R. J. Fulton, Mrs. E. A. Leonard
and Mrs. W. J. Conner. Here toasts
were responded to by the representa
tives of the different organizations.
Following the supper dancing was re
sumed, the merriment continuing until
far after midnight. When the notes
of the last waltz had died away and
the dancers separated, the officers of
the Emmets were praised and the earn
est hope expressed that future years
would bring a gathering equally as
enjoyable.
Much of the success of the ball was
due to the efforts of Lieut. A. J. Ful
ton, who acted as chairman of the
committee that completed the arrange
ments for the affair. He and his fel
low-workers spared no pains in their
work and the suocess. from every
standpoint, that attended the ball was
an ample reward.
MANY PETITIONS WERE
SUBMITTED TO COUNCIL
Short hot Bather lluay Session of
the Mayor and Aldermen.
Though the meeting of Council last
night was a rather short one, a num
ber of minor matters were taken up.
Accounts against the city amount- !
ing to $21,466.43 were approved and
ordered paid. All the aldermen were
present except Aldermen Oanty and
Harman, though Alderman Grayson ;
left immediately after the caucus.
The Streets and Lanes Committee
filed a report, which was adopted, re
quiring the contractors for the Na
tional Bank building to erect h. bridge
along Broughton street, so that peo
ple w-ill not have to walk around the
fence, as is now the case. The same
committee also reported favorably upon
allowing the contractors to excav*ate ;
under the sidewalks. The report was
adopted.
The petition for an appropriation for ;
the firemen's coffee wagon was refer
red to the Fire Committee. The peti
tion for an Increased appropriation for
the public library next yetar was re
ferred to the Committee of the Whole.
The petition from Capt. J. C. Postell

of the working committees, so that an
estimate of the. cost of covering the
canal could be secured.

( A petition from the Union Society,
asking for relief from taxation, was
referrred to the Committee of the
Whole. A petition asking relief from
an execution issued against the Kate
Baldwin Free Kindergarten for paving
done on Thirty-first street, was refer
red to the same committee. A peti
tion ‘asking that the Kindergarten be
relieved from paying the bill was act
ed upon adversely by the Finance Com
mittee some time ago. A petition from
the Savannah Port Society, asking that
it be relieved of taxation, was re
ferred to the Finance Committee.
BALTIMORE SQUIRRELS
IN FORSYTH PARK.
Alderman James M. Dixon released a
number of squirrels In Forsyth Park
yesterday. They were sent to him by
Supt. W. W. Crosby of the Baltimore
parks. The squirrels are big and fine
looking, and were soon perfectly at
home among trees in the park.
They were caught In one of the
Baltimore parks and shipped to Alder
man Dixon. When they were first re
leased they dashed off for quite a dis
tance, but soon returned to 'be fed by
the alderman. They are very tame,
and will oat from the hands of the
children and other visitors to the park.
Just before the squirrels were released
one of those already in the park, a
little brown fellow, appeared on the
scene. He looked for a time at the big
giviy squirrels and then scampered
away.

SAVANNAH MORNI?
WILL GIVE REWARD
FOR BEST FLAG.
A contest which, for more reasons
than one, bids fair to arouse unusual
interest, will be that of providing the
most suitable flag for the city of Sa
vannah.
At a meeting of the committee ap
pointed by Mayor Myers to select a
flag, It was decided yesterday to offer
a reward of $lO for the most appro
priate and original design for the city
flag. On the Hag must be the seal of
the city, and colors must be used.
The committee did not consider the
suggestion made by Rev. A. M. Wil
liams some time ago.
