For years It has been the custom of this mammoth department itore to cel ebrate the first half holiday In June, when the store close* on Saturday at noon, by giving their employees a big barbecue at the Cold Spring Cue Club grounds. This has been done for sev eral seasons, and has always proved a success, but this year a change was de- *'The*’management cast ahout for n diversion In entertainment and decided that a theater party was the thing.

Expecting to augment the fund for the Jamestown trip several hundred dollars by tho aham battle last Satur day, but finding an actual loss of about 1500 Instead, a meeting of the officers of the Fifth regiment has been called for Wednesday evening to discuss the situation. The prospect for taking the entire regiment to Jamestown for Georgia Day la gloomy. The military ralr put about 11,500 In the regimental treasury. To take tho entire regiment to Jamestown would cost 10,000 for transportation alone. Then someone hit on tho scheme of having the sham battle last Friday. But tho expectation were far from realltod. Tho battle was scheduled for Piedmont iark, while aL Ponce DeLeon a new aseball park was being opened—a counter attraction that kept peoplo away from Piedmont. Expenses Incurred In tho sham bat tle were heavy. Twenty-two thousand rounds of ammunition were ordered at a cost of 114.90 per thousand, total ing 5546.60, Inclusive of express charges, etc. A barbecue for three thousand people was prepared. About 750 soldiers and many guests wire ted free of chargo. And for the battle exactly S.OOO tick et* were sold at 25 cents each. When the final accounting was made, gloom spread over the officers of the Fifth, for they saw the Jamestown trip van lahing from among tbs possibilities. Seven thousand rounds of ammuni tion had to be shipped from an arsenal in Pennsylvania, and It arrived Mon day, and though paid for In advance, la of no present use to the regiment. With tble situation confronting them, a meeting of the regimental officer* has been called for Wednesday evening In the headquarters on East Hunter street. The outlook for the Jamestown trip Is not very promising just now, though ways may be devised at the meeting.
