Suggestion is Advanced. Professor Battle who is drilling the chorus for the Music Festival is greatly pleased with the progress made. Those who have been pres cut at recent concerts give assur ance that this will b<S( one of the great features of the entire series or concerts. There are nearly two hun ejrod good voices In tho ensemble and they have attained a great, de gree of excellence. It. may not be the best chorus in the world but it is of so high an or der in every respect, that Prof, Bat tie Is considering a challenge to the Spartanburg chorus. This latter or ganization has been in existence for half a dozen years and has the ad vantage of having more frequently drilled voices than Augusta's. It is considered to be of the best in the country, so that the statement from Prof Battle that he would not fear a competition, coming from one of the high degri-e of acumen in things mu sical as his, means much. , It is not believed the challenge will he Issued for this year, and there are many things that stand In the way of Its being carried out, hut the Idea is being seriously considered. If a suitable place, accommodations and the like being considered, and a suit able selection pleasing to both sides bi the contest, and the matter of funds can be agreed upon next sea son is likely to witness a vocal con test that will be worth crossing the ocean to hear. There will be another rehearsal of the chorus this evening, and two or three more next week. AT HIGH NOON SATURDAY. Hleakley will have an excellent sale of fine embroideries.

A demurrer In the case of Isaac S. Peebles, Jr., administrator of the es tate of John E. Dunnington vs. C. &. W. C. railroad, was argued before Judge Eve late Wednesday afternoon. The case is a suit for $25,000, brought by J. E. Dunnington, for the death of his son, W. S. Dunnington, who was killed by putting his head out of a car door to look under the car, in March, 1908. Mr. Dunnington was advertising manager for Sparks’ cir cus at the time of his death, and trav eling in the circus’ private car. Mr. John E. Dunnington died at 1.45 o’clock on the morning og June 12, 1908. The suit was carried to the clerk’s office at 4.80 o’clock that af ternoon, hut it was not filed until the next day. Mr. Austin Branch, attor ney for Mr. Peebles, demurred, ask ing the court to let the date of the filing of the suit be changed. Mr. Wm. K. Miller, for the road, demur red, asking the court not to consider the case, as Mr. Dunnington died be fore the case was filed and therefore the case had never been a live one. Mr. Branch then demurred, saying that Mr. Dunnington died on the same day tiic suit was put. In the clerk's office, and that, the law considefs any act done during the day to have been done at the first moment of the day, amj, therefore, the case was a live one, and the administrator has a right to push It. The law Is that the ad ministrator cannot enter suit unless the proceedings had been started by the person during their life. Judge Eve has not announced Ijjs decision in the case. If the demur rers are settled and the case is not thrown out of court by the decision of the judge, the case will be tried at the May term of the city court.
