Tbe entertainment received at tbe hands of tbe people of Catawba and Kelley’s Island added no little to our pleasant visit to these interesting places, and we found a tour of inspection through Ihe famous wine cellars of these Islands as instructive as it was pleasant. 7. We remember with much pleasu-e the courtesy extended us by Mr. Stra- nahan Deputy U S. fi-h Commissioner in the use of a government boat and visit to the United S ates fishery, and to Mr. J.

It is still in progress and great interest is mani fested in the meetings.

Samuel Smirks gave them a cue last night at the opera house. All that is necessary now is simply to say to your lady love: “ ! -! !, you know the rest.” A MAMMOTH SCHEME WHICH WILL BE CONSIDERED BY THE GLEE CLUB. THE YALE CLUB COMING And Will be Entertained by the Unl- v erslty Glee Club-Matters of In terest Gathered on the Campus. The Glee Club, as the Banner has already stated, will give their first en tertainment here on Friday night, De cember the fourth, in tbe opera house, and will follow this by entertainments in Atlanta and Augusta, where .they will be very royally entertained. On this trip the club will make a snug little sum after paying all their expen ses and some are now thinking of the use this money will be put to. Last year tbe Glee Club gave only one entertainment here and was able to give the Athletic Association of the University a check for one hundred dollars, This year there will be several ways in which this money will be spent. Ou the fifth of January, the Yale Glee Club will be in Athens when it will give one of its excellent concerts, and no doubt the University club will entertain tnern while here. . Tnen the club Is very much concerned in anything which tends toward tbe physical development of the students, and tbe Athletic Association baa no truer nor stauncher friend than tbe Glee Club, and this club, wil' this year, uo doubt, take it upon itself, to enlarge and level the ball and drill ground The Faculty very readily saw this and granted the club its unanimous consent to make the trip to Atlanta and Au gusta. The three members of the faculty who are also members of the club are uni versal favorites with the boys and they will of course go with them on their trips. IN ATLANTA. New goods arriving daily.

Her appearances here will be in her delightful play “Dolly Varden” in which the full strength of her work is shown. It is a play in which abe de lights and the romping jovial spirit of fqn pervades her every speech aod ac tion. Her supporting company this sea son is without doubt the best ever or ganized for similar work. She has a host of new and catchy gongs with which to regale her audiences. The de sire to see her will be so general that the wisdom of securing seats early is obvious. Reserved seats now on sale. THE COUNCIL MEETS To-DAY To Decide Concerning the Cemetery Bridge. Yesterday several members of the city council, along with Mayor Brown and city attorney Rucker went over to look at the bridge on Cemetery street over the Macon and Northern railroad. They also were considering a propo sition made by the railroad company. This matter is now in litigation and the case is set for a hearing tomorrow. Meanwhile, a settlement may be reeched and further litigation avoided. The railroad makes the proposition to tbe city that it will buy up sufficient land around the bridge to make easy and convenient approaches on each side. The city council convenes today at eleven c’clock to consider this proposi tion and tbe matter may be then and there determined. If not then the man damns case will be beard tomorrow. La Grippe again. During tbe epidemic of La Grippe last season Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, proved to be the best remedy. Reports from the many who used it confirm this statement, They were not only quick ly relieved, but the disease left no bad uter results. We ask you to give this remedy a trial and we guarantee that yon will be satisfied with results, or the purchase price will be refunded. It has no equal in La Grippe, or any Throat, Cheat or Lung Trouble. Trial bottles ten cent at Jno Crawford & Co’s Drug tlW.

Put It On Wrong.—A certain young gentlemen in Adieus went out the other d iy to harm sa a horse, and after almost finishing came at last to putting on his cillar.

The Uniforms Here.—The uniforms of the University cadets are here. They arrived yesterday being shipped from the house of the M C. Lilly Company in Ohio. As a rule the clothes fit the boys splendidly and in their uew suits they will present a handsome appearance. Mr. U. D Collum, their popular and eflleient agent, is now in the city. NIGHT SERVICES Will Hereafter be Held In the Presby terian Church, Last Sunday night, the pastor of the Presbyterian church began holding eveuing services in that sanctuary. Quite a number of the members of the church and congregation were preaent and Dr. Lane preached a very interest ing sermon. The music which '.had been arranged was delightful and was highly enjoyed Miss Wacks, the, efficient teacher of vocal music at Lucy Cobb Institute, sang most beau ifully^a song composed by Miss Di Bowski.also of tbe Institute.

Nearly four years ago the new opera house was formally opened with the presentation of the play, “Erma the Elf.” And it was Katie Futnain that acted the leading role that night.; List evening at the opera house that charming little actress appeared again before an Athens audience in “Love Finds a Way.” She kept up her past reputation most splendidly. As Gay Howard, Katie Putnam em bodied all the charms and grace of the little girl of sweet sixteen. Her sing ing was especially enjoyable, and the song “Love will find a way” was encor ed heartily. Dan Bradley, “a rum braudied and braudied rum old toper,” as presented by Lew Hart was very fine, and the manly way in which he forsook his cups and reformed his .life was deeply impressive. Edwin Gardner, as Samuel Smirks, or more familiarly known as “You Know the Rest,” was in the slang ver nacular simply “out of sight.” He is a man of beautiful build, long, graceful limbs, and knew how to gesticnlate with them according to the latest style. His dancing was splendid and evoked much applause and laughter. He sung sever al songs that took exceedingly well, but he certainly made a great hit by his song “Did You Ever Notice That? All the parts were carried out well and the large audience present was highly pleased. Katie Putnam ’ will always be well received in Athens for she christened our little gem of an Opera House. Marriage is a- funny thing. I. is a puzzle any way vou tak» if ’*«*•*> d^ys.whic p tads me to declare th I* afraid matrimony is not regained ... .t as much seriousness of late as it once was nor as much as it ought to receive. But it is funny to study some mar riages How strangely they are entered by the contracting parties and how wonderfully 5 trangely they are broken off after a lew 'brief years of social wedded blis->. * * * Did you ever stand witness to a wed ding which was interrupted just at that point where the preacher . a .i that any body who has objections, to speak out, or forever hold his peace ? One veiy frequently reads of such things in fiction and romance, but he would hardly believe his own ears if he should set isily witness such a proceed ing in real life. But they happeu now and then, 1 was talking on this same subject with a minister of the gospel the other day, and 1 asked him if be had ever been stopped in conducting a marriage cere mony by such opposition. “No,” ?aid he, “but I was met at th» front gate one day by a relative of a g rl who was to be marneand begge.T r.o. to marry her to her prospective biide groom. Tears were streaming down the woman’s cheek as she asked me please not to let the marriage take place.” “What did you doaboutit?” I asked “I went to tho bridegroom aud told him there was going to be trouble in the camp, and told him if he wanted to marry the woman he would have to get auother preacher. And he did it, hut transferred the scene of his nup tials to some other house.” “The strangest and yet the most pathetic marriage scene I ever saw,” continued the miuister, “was here in Athens one day when 1 was called in to conduct the ceremony which would make a wife of a very pretty and rich young girl. “The couple stood before me, and when I asked the man—a handsome young teilow he was—if he would take the woman for his “wedded wife to love, honor,” etc. He made no response. “Everything grew deathly still and the poor man’s heart was almost burst ing out of his throat. He looked stead fastly ou tbe ground without moving his lips. “I repeated the inquiry from the cere mony but still he made no reply. Everybody stood by in breathless si lence and the very air was red hot with tragedy. Finally he leaped frantically upon the sofa near by and buried his burning face deep into the cushioned pillows, groaning like some wild beast. “His bride coaxed him finally into standing up once more and murmuring out some kind of answer aDd I pro non need them man and wife, but not until he answered that question.” HOW’S THIS? BUGGIES AND CARRIAGES SALE BELOW COST. FOR NOW’S YOUR CHANGE. And Only & Short Time to Oocldo Whether You accept It or Not. Jacob Gleich, Ageut of the Ohio Bug gy Co., will sell for tbe next four days only, the 11 e-t assortment of Buggies, Pbietoua »uu Surreys ever brought to Athens.

These vehi cles are guaranteed first-class in every respect by the Ohio Buggy Company, Columbus, Ohio. Jacob Gleich, Southern Agent. A FIERY MASS. Work of the Firemen Nothing. Coupts for Nashville, Nov. 0.—The situation iu Tennessee is becoming alarming. Suspicious communication is being held between the East Tennessee miners oi Kentucky, Alabama and Virginia. The hardy mountaineers who released the convicts have sworn that the gov ernor shall not rebuild the stockades, and that if he sends tho convicts hack to the mines they will be butoheted in cold blood. It is stated officially that the rebell ion of the uiiuerd, so far as estimated, has damaged the commercial standing of East Tennessee millions of dollars. Two towu companies, one with $o0,- 000,000 capital, located at Bristol, the other with f100,000, located Elizabeth town, have refused to enter the state, claiming the state not being able to protect its own interests, cannot pro tect the interests of capital.

They arc all at work, hut restless as to the resnlt of the companies’ decision al lowing them check-weighmen. RAILROAD WRECK. OVER THE TEA CUP. Undoubtedly one of the mast charming young ladies who has ever visited the city was Miss Mamie Nichols, who has neen the guest of Miss Katie Louise DuBose for some time,but who return- ed to her home in Washington D. C this morning. Miss Nichols is an unusually bright and interesting young lady with a pret ty face and figure. She has made ma ny friends during her short stay in Athens who regret to see her leave. I have often heard of marriages being bn ken off at the last hour. The funniest 1 ever heard of, though, was once when tbe bride, attired in veil Hnd satin dres«, slipped out of the back door and through the garden before her would be husband came. The funny part of it all was that he took it most good naturedly aod made his weddiDg party all get down aDd carouse on his bride’s wed ding dinner and wine until a late hour at night. The woman married somebody else in after life and is happy. So did he, and happy, too. But, as 1 said before marriage is l strange affair any way you take it. Is it a failure? Ask me something easier. The Wanderer, House For Rent.—No. 213, S. Jack- son street. Apply to Mrs. E. P Bishop. tf ATHENS RAILWAY COMPANY. Judge Newman Asked to Appoint a Receiver.

The firemen cannot reach the hottest portion of the blaze. The fuel company has asked the Minneapolis fire department for an engine, which is expected during the day. If the air reaches the smouldering fire the whole mass, containing thousands of tons of coal, is likely to be destroyed. Some of the largest elevators lie near the coal docks. The Duluth fire depart ment is working in relays of six hours each. Nothing further is known of the cause than it believed to be spontaneous combustion. The full extent of the loss is not yet known but will doubtlesf reach into bnftdveds of tht ri i gi>ti J g of dollars. En*ln,er and Fireman Hurt—Car, Badly Damaged.

Y., Nov. 9. —The barn of Rich-ird F -otc, in Windsor, this county, was burned, and the charred remains of Foote were found in the ruins. Foote was old and his wife young. Certain actions of Mrs. Foote after the fire and reiKirts concerning her intimate relations with John Furman, a resident of the neighborhood, aroused suspicion. An investigation was insti tuted and Mrs. Foote confessed that her hu band left the house at 9 o'clock in the morning and went toward the bam. About twenty minutes later Furman came into the house with blood on his hands and clothes and told her he had killed Foote with a club. She went to the bam with Furman and saw Foote lying dead. Furman returned to the house, procured some kerosene, and, after saturating the body with it, set the barn on fire. Furman and Mrs. Foote are under Arrest. Germany Como, to Term*. New York, Nov. 9.—A special to The World from Washington says the new reciprocity treaty with Germany will probably he announced at the coming meeting of the German reichstag. The details have been perfected and the treaty has been made, bnt the German minister asked the privilege of making the first formal announcement in Ger many. The substantial outli les of the treaty are concessions to tins country on breadstuffs and cereals, no higher than the duties conceded to Austria- Hungary by the new treaty with that country.
