PAGE TEN AUGUSTA WILL HAVE UNDISPUTED TITLE TO BEST MUSIC FESTIVAL IN THE SOUTH Decision of Caruso Not To Appear in Atlanta Leaves the Augusta Attraction With No Opponent for First Place. Augusta If now assured of the greatest music festival In the South Caruso, Atlanta's leading attraction for its festival, and “THE” one on whom the entire success of the festi val depended, will not appear In an concert this year, sailing for Europe, account of his voice being In a pre carious condition. While Augusta has always consld cred It would have the greatest fes tival In the South and the greatest soprano In the world Mine Karnes yet the city did feel as though At lanta was a close second for the hon ors, with Caruso her leading attrac tion. Hut Augusta Is again the leader In the Empire Slate, and will un questionably have the greatest music festival In the entire South. The so-called high class ' Foreign" orchestra touring the South this year Is not to he compared In any particu lar with that “peerless" leader VVal ter Damrosrh and his wonderful or chestra of fifty men. accompanied by four great artists: Mine Klder-Kclsey, soprano; Miss Noveda Van lb- Vettf, contralto; Mr liei d Miller, tenor, and Mr Gustav Holmquent, bass. The above artists comprise the best that musical talent offers In this eoini try, and ate supported by suhscrlp t-.n concerts every year In New York dty. These people who support the con certs contribute personally hundreds of dollars toward the success of them und the city of Augusta Is to be eon gratulated on tin- opportunity of hear ing these renowned artists at so low u price for each concert.

FORT DE FRANCE.—Clpriano Cas tro, ex president of Venezuela, was ignomlntously expelled Saturday night from tho Island of Martinique by the French government. Ho protested to the last against his expulsion, but his prtoests were in vain. Ho is now on board the French line steamship Ver Bailies, bound for St. Nazaire. CASTRO PROTESTED AGAINST LEAVING. FORTE DE FRANCE-Official notice was served on Castro Saturday morn ing of the decision of the French go\- > rnment that he must leave tho island within nine hours from tho receipt of such notice and that the commlsslary of police at Fort Do Franco hud been charged with the execution of the or der. The ex-president was furious with indignation and strove throughout Uve day for some excuse that would lie satisfactory whereby he would not be [compelled to obey the order and to {this end late in the day summoned a lawyer aud physician to certify that he was unable to leave the country. ; The governor of Martinique aud the public prosecutor, however, refused an < xi enslon of the time and about five o’clock the commissary of police, ac | companled by a largo force of gend artnsa, proceeded to tho hotel whoro Castro was stopping to remove him, forcibly if necessary, te tho steamer. The affair created a great sensa tion and long before the police made their appearance at tho hotel crowds had gathered which later were joined by tho consuls representing the vari ous foreign powers, who showed great interest In the expulsion of what one of thi m termed "the common enemy of peace." CROWD RIOTOUS OUTSIDE HOTEL. 1; became necessary for the police and gendarmes to take rigid meas ures to hold the crowds in check, who had bv thts time become riotous out side tho hotel. Tho ex-president rail ed against the French government and the local authorities, denouncing them for forcing upon him the alter native of deportation or imprisonment for six months.
