On last Thursday evening, by invi tation, the members of Benevolent Lodge, and their families assembled in Masonic hall to witness the presen tation of a Jewel to Past Master Adolph Joseph. The hall, which is one of the handsomest in the State, ! was beautifully decorated with flow- j ers for the occasion. After music by j a choir of the best voices in the city*, Mrs. E. E. Bell presiding at the organ, J and prayer by the chaiHain, Bro. G. ! T. Weidenman, the Worshipful Mas- j ter, W. W. Lumpkin, in a chaste and elegant address, full of pathos and sentiment, presented the jewel to Bro. Joseph, who replied in feeling and appropriate terms. The action of the lodge in voting Bro. Joseph this jewel as a token of their confidence and esteem is an un usual honor won by long and faith ful service. The ceremonies of presentation be ing over, the large assemblage was served with ice cream, sherbet and cake. The evening was delightful, and a more pleasant social gathering has rarely occurred in this city. THE CYCLONE Great Loss by Water! f fiV'll WAG pUliCI, till tut?

The families, whose homes were ruined by the storm, have the sympathy of our citizens, and prompt assistance should be rendered to place them on their feet again. DROWNED. Last Sunday morning, two little girls Viola and Pearl Hutto, aged a- bout six and eight years, daughters of Mr. Mack Hutto", who lives on South Wayne street in this city 7 , went to the creek to get mulberries. They crossed the bridge and -went down the stream to Mr. Bagley’s field where they found a mulberry tree near the water. While engaged in gathering the fruit, Pearl, the smallest child, fell into the water, when her sister in reaching after her also fell in. Their cries attracted attention and two col ored boys, Williamson and Tyson, who were the first to reach them, res cued Viola who was holding to a root and screaming for papa, but little Pearl had sank out of sight. Robert Caraker on reaching the place jump ed in and diving down brought her to the surface, when, with the assis tance of young Mr. Jake Caraker, she was gotten out of the water, placed in a buggy, and carried immediately to the residence of Dr. Sims. Every ef fort was made to revive the child, but in vain. She was dead. Her'remains were carried to Augusta for burial. The parents have the sympathy of our community in their bereavement. The first sound of the Court House clock was heard in this city yesterday at 2 o’clock. It has a sweet tone.
