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 BRIDGE WANTED ACROSS RIVER.

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.
