envy, we are giving q liberal support 10 magnil-
cent whirligig and to several "museums Of living
wonders" accompanied by any number Of dole

nah theatrlcas, and that he will not again visit
the city. We don't much wonder-he Is not the

first trip. "Up in a balloon" is generally the
managerial tune after season in Savannah.
