Some Expressions of Opinion Con cerning the Turf Exchange. Regattas and Tug Races and Gun Shoots. It caught the town. The Post's article op the Oceanic Exposition at St. Simon’s Island met with favorable comment yesterday evening. It was universally agreed that the idea oi' a spring time exposition, with horse racing, boat racing, mili tary drills, etc., was a novel and catching idea. There were many features added in the discussion throughout the town. ‘AVhy, sir,” exclaimed an enthus iastic gentieman, -the scheme sug gests more possibilities that any thing I have even heard of. If At- ’ lanta had the surroundings of < Brunswick, with her indomitable will and pluck she would bring the world into her ports. i “There are more kinds of amuse- ' ments and exhibitions that can be i given thanyou have perhaps thought. Horse racing would take like wild i fire. St. Simon’s beach is at low i tide one of the finest bieyle tracks in I the world. The champion cyclist of the world has been in Georgia, and would doubtless like to come back. There are a number of tine wheel men in Georgia. The Glvnn Gun Club could take hold of their part ( anil challenge the world if they saw lit. "By next spring there will be a ( desire fflr another race among the ( pilot boats. Brunswick won the . honors in the last, and certainly < ought to be able to claim the next ( race in her own waters. There could be found no better place. “Races could, be arranged between yachts and schooners, sail and row J I boats. Why couldn't Haulox or some other famous oarsman be in duced to come.” The scribe mentioned a naval shatr battle. “Why not liave that?” said a stranger standing by, “I am from : Pensafcola, Fla., and know what a ■ naval shall! battle can be made. Troops on the isli.nd can also be j made to co operate in the battle. In ; this, your harbor in Brunswick and I the islands are especially well adapted to carrying out this part of the plan.” A naval sliam battle! Cannon or St. Simons and Jekyl ' Islands answering cannon on water, i ontending for possession of the h.ifboi! What do you think of the propo sition in yesterdat's Post? Mr. 11 11. Harvey, deputy clerk of court, answered promptly, “Yes sir, it would be a big thing if they would only take hold of it. Let’s have it by all means. Anything to bring a crowd to Brunswick.” Mr. E. A. Nelson had been help ling at opening the brewery, and ex pende 1 his energy making a speech, so he hadn't thought of the matter. He read the article in eloquent and thrilling tones to the little crowd. He said: “She should be held. The people will lend their co opera tion. Tug races, yacht races and gun club shoots should be added. By all means let’s have the fair. I think though,” he added after a pause, “,t wotiTd be better for Bruns wick it were held here. Sulphur Springs, three miles from town, would be the place. It’s a line place for shooting clay pigeons.” Aud the crowd laughed. Mr. J. L. Beach: 1 don’t think it is practical. You can quote me as saving that the Brunswick Com pany have established a reputation for not being able to handle the crowds. They make preparations for two dr three hundred, and invite the thousands, and have never cared for a crowd yet. Mr. Sam McCrary: It should be held in Brunswick. An exposition on St. Simons would do nrunswiek no good. Mr. 11. T. Dunn: There could be no two opinions about it. The peo ple would be glad to further any on terprise of the sort. It might be best for Brunswick to have it over I here. I had the paper with me on the bout, but in the short time I did . uot give the.article cuteful attention, or might give a betl r expression of i opinion An Oceanic Expedition. BREWING BEER And Making Tons of Ice to Keep the Natives Cool. The Brunswick Brewing tindlee company, began work this inyrning manufacturing of beer and ice, and by Saturday,so ( apt. T. Newman in formed The Post to day, the p’ant will be turning out 20 toils of ice daily. This will be of great benefit to Brunswick and to this section of tire state. '■ie outiojk for the sal j of beer is most favorable. Capt. Newman says that active steps will be taken at once to put the beer on tap .in other cities and towns. Agencies will be established .in Albany, Jack sonville aud probably Thomasville and other places. The brewery will for the time being manufacture sev enty-tive barrels of 32 gallons each day, or 3,200 gallons. The men who are making the Leer know their business, and Capt New man, who will handle and market it, has handled western beer for nine teen years, and says this beer “lies over any beer he has ever handled yet and there is no guess about it. It was so pronounced yesterday by able aiid experienced judges, men who know good beer when they taste it.” The Captain is sanguine over the outlook for the brewery, and the many visitors of yesterday went home praising Brunswick beer. The Brewery Boycott. It seems that the laboring' people are mad. They felt slighted because they were not invited to the opening of the brewery. In conversation with two or three workingmen this evening they de clared to a Post reporter that it was the workingmen who consumed the beer, as the business and rich men drank wine and champagne. But the people who consume the beer,the| masses, were ignored. This in the face of the fact that when the brew ' ery was fir~t started it, was an nounced that a grand opening would be hehi, and the | eople generally would be invited to come up stnd sample tiie domestic beverage, ac companied with a barbecue. And tl ey don’t like the slight. If the beer is to be offered to them through the market, they should have been recognized as con sume! s. If the brewery people didn’t want them ••round when their visitors were about, why didn't they have a di.U r,.mt houi for the worxing I people - We are Lot going to b >y ■' colt tin beer, but just 1< t it alone. They ignored us-we will ignore i them. A Post repo:ter was told that there had been a paper drawn up aud that nearly all the workingmen in Brunswick hid signed it, not to drink the Brunswick beer. Are There Phosphates Here? A well known gentleman who ha made the question of phosphates a study, anil who ha-i been over the county considerably in search of phosphates, gave his opinion to The Post this morning that there were no phosphate deposits in Glynn county of commerci d value. “I have found many samples of phosphate. he said, “but they were fossils —bone, such as can be found in rivers any where.” He further pronounced the stories of phisspliate beds on the islands as fakes, as investigation failed to de velop paying qualities. But there are others who claim that there are phosphates here, and in rich deposits. A gentleman on St. Simon’s island claims to have made a rich findover there. He has made an effort to buy the land, but failed, and is now confident that his knowledge is worth something to the owners of the property. So he is on the block. " . ■..' - Georgia Familien-Journal. Mr. Henry Busse, editor of the Georgia Familien-Journal published at Savannah, called on The Post this morning. Mr, Busse’s journal has a number of subscribers is Brunswick, and is quite popular with the German speaking people. Mr. Busse is the guest of Mi. Peter Wolters. Otto Marti stole a coat from A. Isaac's tailor shop yesterday, iiut did not succeed in getting away with it. He was allowed to go without arrest as the coat hud. been recov ered. VETERAN'S' DAY. The Old Soldiers Enjoying Themselves on St. Simon’s. '«■ The Waycross Rifles in Attendance— Crowdsjof Citizens at the Pic nic A Pleasant Day on the Island. , 1 This is Confederate veto:ms' day! 1 And they have taken a day oil' to ' have a good time and on beautiful ' St. Simons they will gather again around the camp tire as in days 1 i gone by. But around the tires that will be ' lighted to-day white winged peace 1 will reign and instead of the dread- • ful whistling of niinnie balls or • whizz ingof bombs, t ie laughter of women and children will break upon ' the summer air. Then, too, instead of roasting green corn and drinking branch water the ve’erans will dine daintily on the fat of the land and 1 the spent of barbecued meats will 1 rise like an incense to peace. The early boats leaving the city took quite a number of the veterans ' anil their friends over to the island, bu.t it was left for the boats leaving ' later in the day to convey the largest I crowds. : At 7:10 o'clock the Waycross Ri I lies, twenty live strong, under the 1 command ol Captain .1. McP. Fair, ‘ arrived and were n et at the depot by Brunswick's pets, the Rillles, and j were escorted to the Ocean Hotel. < where an elegant breakfast avail 1 them. The line of march to the ho I tel was up F s'aeet to the Rilles nr mory thence down Newcastle top Monk, up Monk to Bay io the hotel, where aims weie stacked and tie : breakfast enjoyed. The beautiful gray uniform«of th Waycross Rilles were much admired | and their handsome arms were in j i spec ted by many as they stood in! I front of the hotel. ; I | After the breakfast ha 1 been thor | | ouglily discussed the Waycross sol ■ diers took the 9 o’clock boat for St. • I Simon’s. j The company was accompanied by I quite a number of admirers, among i whom were several ladies. ON THE ISLAND. St. Simon's Island July 23. By Tele p i me to the Post. This has been a memorable day ] for St. Simon's. The Confederate Veterans, .the I ' Waycross Ritles, a small detach ment of the Floyd Rillemen of Ma : i con aud a big crowd cf citizens con statute those wdio arc taking part in , the veterans’ picnic. The steamer City of Brunswick reached here early this morning on her regular run but brought only a few people come over on her. The E; mont reached her at 9:15 with about sevenlive passengers included a number of veterans,. but when the Pope Catlin steamed up to the pier at 10:30 her passenger list was nearly 300, among whom were the ■ Waycross Rifles, and a few of that company’s lady friends and about ■ fifty veterans and their families an I I friends. I Immediately after landing fro n the steamer the Waycross Rilles marched up to the pavilion prep ira toryof to listening to the ad Ires-; welcome they were to receive. At 10:15.Judge Spencer It Atkin son stepped forward and lacing the I crowd said: “Gentlemen of the Confederate ( Veterans' Asso nation of Glynn , county: You are called upon to wel come the sons of those who fought j , beside you during that dreadful era, ( , the recollection of of which brings ( sadness to every southern heart. He who has been chosen to perform this . f . pleasant duty is one whose recoid in ( those memorable struggles speaks ( for itself. With a devoted people he raised his arms to fight and if needs be die with the Confederacy. I ( He still rejoices that he is a veteran 11 and that he has been spared to wit 1 ness this occasion. Gentlemen of 1 the Waycross Rifles, 1 take pleasure in introducing to you Hun J. E < Dart." Judge Atkinson's address elicited ; p>ud and long applause, after which C<4 J E Dart arose ami said: •■Dear old soldiers, < onfeileratc - . veteran*, ladies and gentlemen: i pardon me if 1 place the soldier* L first! Along the pathway of lif.< jm - portaut duties uro ever involving. Lumiuua. Some are pleasant and others unpleasant to perform. The duty I hive to pel form upon this' occasion is one of extreme pleasure! and yet, it causes my heart to throb with pain As I scan your faces, gentlemen, you'wbo call yourselves the sons of Ware Guards (that brave and gallant troop that inarched and fought and bled beside the Bruns wick Rilles) I recall your fathers; not pale and piostia e «ath the blood of their gallant hearts pouring out ghastly wounds, but moning resplen dent over fields of honor, with the roses of heaven in their cheeks aud the lire of liberty in their eyes. Gentlemen, no more heroic company ever enlisted in the service of the confederacy and my prayer is that you way emulate their example with your youth and manhood and brave ry. In behalf of the Confederate Ve teran’s association of Glynn county I bid you thrice welcome to the fes tivities of this occasion.’’ Col. Dart was interrupted with frequent applause and took his seat amid the cheers of the audience. Following Col. Dart, Cnptain J. Ale, I’. F irr lifted his cap and spoke as follows: •Col. J. E. Dart: In behalf of the company I command 1 desire Io thank you sincerely for so generous a welcome. It shall be our aim to P’ ij etuate the example of our fa thers and retain the love and esteem of ihei.- ..id comrades.’’ Then the crowd began to disperse. The Pope Catlin came in at 3 o’clock with a large crowd of pas sengers and the festivities are at the highest pitch of the day. In the contest for the gun in the sho ding match. Irrepressible Joe Wallace came o-ts winner by making an extra fine shot. PERSONAL MENTION W, T. Sims, Jr., of Atlanta Jour na), was in the city yesterday. F. 11.

A Suggestion That Will Meet With Much Approval. A Veteran Fireman's Idea—lt Will Make a Triple Fire Department Something That Insurance Companies will Applaud. A reserve fire department. That is something that Brunswick needs and needs budlv. ns has been proven only lately. Not that the paid department doesn’t endeavor to do its duty, but. that it is too small to successfully handle large fires. Most cities with a paid depart ment as small as that of Brunswick ■ have such an auxiliary department as is suggested and the system has proven more than successful. In some cities there are men liv ing in a certain radius of the engine houses who receive a small monthly . remuneration as reserves, giving only that portion ot their time to the de partment which is necessary to quench a fire. These men are also pird for their work nt (ires in addi tion to their monthly pay. In other cities certain appoin><-cs of the city government are known as i» erves and these are only paid for their work at fireu The plan proposed for Brunswick is this: ■■Every one knows and appreciates the fact that the two volunteer com - ■* panics in existence in Brunswick did good work nt the late disastroufhfl wei fl companies fl m a fl of ■ ■ fl fl B B fl B . . i ...ifl "I ■ i ':.Mtßv'G- ? .C i.,iiihß?\ in The idi-a is one which insuramH ■ -oiiipii ii« s as well as merchants andjM property owners no doubt would a good one, for it affords triple pro-' B tection to property at a minimum fl B Thus spoke a veteran fireman and B Tin: Post gives his idea to the pub- B lie knowing that a good one is al- *fl ways appreciated. • I I With this idea carried out Bruns wick would be in better shape than ever, now so far as fighting fire is concerned. Just think of it— A reserve fire department! - ♦ ♦ ■ ■■■ IW The Line to Baltimore. In a few days Mr. S. W. Apte president of the Merchant’s and Traders’ Protective Association, will leave for the north. One of the objects of his trip is to call upon the management of the Merchants and Miners’ Transporta tion Company for the purpose of learning their decision in the matter of putting on a line of vessels be tween this port and Baltimore. Mr. Apte will also make a canvass of the Baltimore merchants and us certain their feelings towards the new line and endeavor to awoken lively interest in it, among them. Free Beer at “The Place". “Please say for me,’’ said Mr. Lowenstein, "that the entertainment yesterday was my own, and no one ■ else had anything to do with it. My J customers expected me to have them ■ invited to the opening of the brewery, a Os course I couldn't do this, so 1 B treated myself. I mu not boycott- fl ing the b< < i I expect to keep it, 9 ahmg with my other beer, for tboM B who w u II L it.'* W
