OHILDREN OF TWO PREBIDENTB ENTERTAINED AT HAMMOND HOME. BOSTON.—The children of two presidents of the United States are being entertained by the children 01 a former vice-presidential aspirant at John Hays Hammond's summer home in Gloucester. Tills, perhaps the most Interesting gToup of young folks In the country, consists of the Misses Esther and Marlon Cleveland, Char ley Taft and the two sons of Air, Ham mond, Richard and John Hays, Jr. They are the youngest and jolllest members of a house party at Lookout Hill. Charley Taft, who already has quite a reputation for gallantry, is a de voted attendant upon the Cleveland girls, and, with "Dick" Harumon . they have been the busiest quartetu. In Gloucester for a week, with daily romps, yachting trips ad excursions. The young folks came together to witness the magnificent pageant of the "Canterbury Pilgrims,” which turned Gloucester Into a show city for a few hours Wednesday night. As for Charley Taft, Marlon Cleve land and her older sister, Esther, they found one another agreeable when It came to having all the fun a big country house can offer, with yachts and motor cars and horses and ex cellent golf links at the disposal of the guests. Besides, the girls are not so very muon older than Charley. Marion Is | scarcely thirteen years old and Esther is sixteen. As for the opportunities to make much of the out-of-door Attractions, they were In the very best of hands, for young "Dick 1 ' Hammond, who is about the same age ns Charley Taft, was their constant companion, along with hts eider brother, John Hays Hainmond, Jr., who acted as g neral manager of their outings, and most especially of the yachting trips. It was yachting, by the way, that furnished the greatest attraction for the Misses Cleveland, as their own country place at Taniworth, N. H., is inland. The sailing program made up by tho Hammond boys, 'therefore, pos i"*RSod distinct novelty for them. All though the week, with the ex ception of the day of the pageant, tho young folks wont out, whenever the weather permitted, In the Odyseus 11., the "38-rater" which/ John Hays Ham mond, Pr., handles with the skill of a j Gloucester sailing master. Then there was golf, and th»t was a game In which the you 'g folks were scarcely less enthusiastic than their elder*. At the house party there were M \ and Me*. Edward L. Ryverson, of Chi cago; Mr. and Mrs. L. B. Stllwell, of New Ypk; Mrs. Algernon Sullivan, of New fork, and Miss Mary Hoyle, of St. Louis. Nearly all braved the weather on the day after the pageant and went out t> * ''ertiable "Scotch mist" to knock ’the little while hall about tho reaches of Lookout Hill, while Charley Taft, the Misses Cleve land and tho two sons of Mr. nam mond remained at the house to pass the time in tho mosquito proof arbors of the big veranda. in ‘the case of young "Dick” Ham mond, this Inaction was unavoidable, for the boy had led such a strenuous week that he had tuken cold and was kopt In Ills room by the doctor's or ders. In some respects theirs was an out ing without the interver.’tlon of grown ups, for both Mrs. Cleveland and Mrs Taft were unable to accompany their children to the house party.

CHARLESTON, 8 C.—Marshal Den nis McKevltn made a seizure of Tour barrels *of flue export on tne dsck beach on Sullivan's Island, which was Intended, It Is said, for the Atlantic Beach Hotel. Chief Constable Ba'ceatnan got track of the consignment and he started out to follow tite beer to its destination and there to seize It As usual, his appearance on the ferry wharf \va» immediately telephoned ahead, the j plan which is almoet invariably fol ! lowed, handicapping the official in the discharge of his duty, and when he attempted to search a car at Mount TMeasant, he was called off the Job by an employe of the company. Chief Bateman then took s car and went down to the hotel, watting st the station, prepared to seise the beer upon arrival The beer, however, failed to com* down with the freight train and then.

NEW YOPK. —There is to be no parting of the ways, after all, for those handsome and accomplished stage favorites, James K. tlackett aud Maty Mannerlng. After more than a year of separation, following the serv ing of papers on Mr. Hackett. in a di vorce action brought by his wife, they have become reconciled again and the divorce is off. Mr. Hackett made known the glaa news himself last night. He was so please that he culled up all his friends to tell them about it. "Miss Mannering has withdrawn her suit for divorce,” he said,"and lTn very happy.” Miss Mannering wasn't with hint at the moment, but she was reported as very happy, too. Their friends both In and ou't of stage life, were delight ed, for both actor and actress, because of their good looks .taien't and person al charm .are Immensely popular. Lawyers Confirm Action. The reason for the withdrawal of the suit was not made public, nor oould it be had from the lips of the principal figures in the case or their lawyers. Attorneys Clifford Hart ridge and William R. Wilder, repre senting respectively Mr. and Mrs. Hacket't, merely confirmed the news of the withdrawal of the suit without comment. It is more than likely that little Elsie Hackett who is five and dainty and as pretty as you'd expec’t a daugh ter of such parents to be was respon sible for the abandonment of the un pleasant legal action. Last fall, as the luck of theatricals had it, the Hacketts played in Forty second street theatres across the street from each other, James K. at the house which bears his name, and Miss Mannering at the Lyric. He was doing "The Prisoner of Zenda." she “Glorious Betsy." They had been formerly separated then since early in the summer. Miss Mannering having served the papers upon her husband on June 1. at the same time receiving custody of little Elsie. During the Fofty-second street en gagement, the child made nightly pil grimages across the street from one house to the other.

I. S. Peeples & Son have moved into a fine store. Bright and long and ornamented it is a charming place. Yet, hopsitable as the pro prietor is, his place is not burdened with the Resters one finds every where in genial old Georgia. These enterprising men have now enlarged their business into a wholesale de partment. Miss Peebles is visiting friends in Mitchell, and Mrs. F. J. Peebles had just returned from seing friends at her old home —Augusta. The convivial T. A. Walden was back at his post from a survey of the cotton market in Augusta, ready for anything progressive. Gibson has one of the most unique water powers to be found. The fine artesian flow is kept accessible by machinery at once convenient and re liable. True, such busy spirits as Mr. Hannah and Cashier Ferguson have to manipulate it occasionally, but that only gives a chance to the Rest ers to change position a bit and gives their muscles a little exercise—for they will help at the pump. Ordinary Bradley, Mr. J. C. Eng lish and others taking observation of crops think that, after all, corn and cotton promise finely. Miss Frances Brooks, of Agricola, has given up her work at Gibson But he stands it very well—brave fellow! At the Rogers House one may al ways get pleasant accommodation. AGRICOLA.

Soon she became the bearer of kindly message: “Tell papa 'this” and “Tell mama that.” The thea trical world smiled sympathetically and predicted. "If that keeps up long there'll be no Hackett-Mannering di vorce." Indeed, before the tw r o com panies went separate ways there were rumors that a reconciliation was in view. Now that it has come, the Hacketts’ friends are giving Elsie a large share of (he credit. Mr. Hackett and Miss Mannerlng were married secretly in 1897, when both were members of the Lyceum theatre stock company. They had been man and wife for eight months before even their fellow players found it out. They starred together for several years, and then each headed a com pany, both meeting with success. It was reported last night that the com ing season might see them united again on the stage, as well as in private life.

Negroes living next to the office saw man inside, and ran arcoss to the Augusta Ice House and gave the alarm. Mr. J. E. Gibbs, telephoned for the officers, and went to try to catch the burglars.
