DR.. D. Hayes Agnew, who per-
formed the surgical operation on the
President, was born in Lancaster County,
Pennsylvania, in 1918, and is consequent
ly in his 9th year. He studied at sew
eral provincial academies and colleges,
and graduated in medicine at the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania in 1888. After
an unsuccessful attempt to establish a
practice in the country he settled per-
manently in Philadelphia. For many
years he lectured at the Philadelphia
School of Anatomy, and was afterward
connected with the Philadelphia Hos
pital, the Medical Department of the
University, the Wills Ophthalmic Insti-
tute, and the Orthopedic Hospital. He
has long been recognized as the most
skillful clinical lecturer in this country.
His experience has been varied and
extensive, and has included every de-
scription of surgical practice, and espe-
cially the treatment of gunshot wounds.
He has written several works on sur
gerry.

The Second Georgia Battalion 10
Yorktown.

The Yorktown Centennial occurs In Oc-
tober, and will be celebrated by detach-
ment Of military from each State. 1t is to
be made national celebration, and France
sends over a shipload Of LaFayettes to be
present. The military to represent Georgia
has not yet been selected, but must be at an
early date. We learn that strong efforts
are being made to induce the Governor
to send the Second Georgia Battalion.
Surely, If any organization can lay claims
to this honor, the gallant old Second
heads the list. 1t was this celebrated bat
TALON that first set foot on Virginia soil to
repel the invader in '61; battalion that
enlisted for the war, fought through it
from beginning to end, furnished seventy
two officers to the Confederacy, outside its
own organization, and surrendered at Apo
mattox less than fifty men out OF four full
companies, one Of which carried one hun
dred and twenty. We say, IL any organiza-
ton is entitled to the honor, 1t is the 'Litte
Second" If Gov. Colquitt desires to please
the people of Middle Georgia, and send into
Virginia an organization that will be well
coined In every hamlet, let him order out
the Second Georgia Battalion for Centennial

The third Of the entertainments inaugu-

mer months, was given last night at their
rooms in Masonic Temple. The hall was
filed to its utmost capacity, the large audi

was ehassezing around the eighties.
The entertainment opened with piano
solo by Mr.. H. Gutman, which Wss execu-
ted in true artistic style and wae greeted
with apprecistive applause.
DR.. George II. Stone followed with a reel
tatfOn entitled "Parratanius,n which Wss
given with excellent effect and was heartily
encored.
Mr.. NJ. s. Roseuzweig then sang with
much feeling the beautiful song, "Olce

cores. This was followed by Dr.. Stone
reading a selection from 81 WhitcOmO,
brimfull OF hUmOr, which was received with
manifest pleasure, and was very foe.
The programme was happily ended with
a reading BY Mr.. NJ. l.. Lilienthal OF
humorous character, entitled "Where was

elected enthusiastic applause.
At the close of the entertainment. Mr..

hence the reduction. Ladies who need

An OmciaI InspectiOn-The New
Pump TO be Ordered.

Mr.. ]. d. Cook, Of Toledo, Ohio, whose
specially is the furnishing of ''stand pipes"
or water reservoirs, arrived in the city,
yesterday morning for the purpose Of ex-
aiming into our water system here, Win
the view to making estimates as to the cost
OF the proposed improvements. In company
with the Mayor. tie Water Works Com
mittee, and Superintendent OF wafer
Works, Mr.. Cook had the opportunity OF
visiting the water works and thoroughly
examining the system. The tour Of inspec-
tim was extended to the property belong
ing TO the city up the river near
NeLeod's place, the proposed site OF
the new water works, the surround
inqs being less Objectionable than those at
the present source of supply. Mr.. Cook
expressed q high opinion OF the new site,
and thought the city was fortunate In hav-
ing secured so eligible spot. The party
then visited several places which had been
considered suitable for the cree
ton of the new stand pipe,
and we understand 1t will prOba-
ably be located in the vicinity OF Bull
and Liberty streets, and will be 225 feet
high. Mr.. Cook was furnished with msp
OF the CITY ana also Win SulUCl6ub uhba
upon which to base his estimates as TO the
cost of the reservoir, etc. He left last even
ing for Toledo, and will! proceed at once to
select the material and make his estimates,
which it is believed will be satisfactory, and
will return here to superintend the work OF
erection.
We understand that the Water Works
Committee determined yesterday to order
another OF the new WorthingtOn pumps
with a duty of five million gallons of water,
and the order will be sent forward to day.
The cost OF this pump will be S26. $50. The
intention seems now to change the present
source of supply, and the new pump will be
erected at the point referred to up
the river, and as soon as
possible the present water works will
be removed to that point. An arrange
ment is now under negotiation whereby the
city will, IN consideration of the Central
Railroad Company removing the water
works to the new site and connecting them
with the city, give a deed TO the present
land, which has long been needed by
the company, and which, in view
Of the extensive improvements now In Pre-
gress in that vicinity is. more than ever de
sirable. This arrangement seems to he
perfectly fair and equitable, and it is hoped
may be carried out successfully, as all re
coguiZe the importance Of a change from
the present source of water supply.
