rIarv Anderson,s Car,

Mary Anderson travels In really royal
style. She has had car arranged to suit
her especial w,ehes and for her perfect COM
fort
The car Is styled palace hotel car. In it
there is range with every conceivable
utensil for culinary purposes and lockers or
ice-chests to keep fresh meat, game, etc /;
there is also an unique arrangement for
bathing In hot or cold water.
Miss Anderson's stateroom is large
enough for a good old fashioned bed. The
drawing room of the car is convertible into
a dining room. Her meals while travelling
are cooked on board the car and served
while on the way. In the drawing room
portion Of the car there is to be found g
small select library of standard works, files
on which the newspapers are hung, and
handsome pictures decorate the panels Of
the car. There is an upright piano also on
which the Young lady can while away the
tedium of long journey. Last, but not
least, there is a hammock which can be
hung and a pleasant SIestd enjoyed at q
moments notice.
This has. bean arranged for Miss Ander-
sons journey through the entire South, and
will make the tour one OF pleasure rather
than of work.
Miss Anderson and her company will ar
rive here on Wednesday, March OH, by spe-
cial train, giving two performances In this
city-presenting "EVadnen and "IngOmar."
Her Southern tour is under the direction
of Messrsa Brooks and Dickson, to whose
energy aud enterprise we have been iDdebt-
ed for many of our best attractions this sea-
son. From here she goes TO Augusta,
thence to Macon and Atlanta.

SUMNER ENTERTAINMENTS.
Our Amateurs Promise a Treat.

The respective committees of the John T.
Ford Amateur Dramatic Association and
the E. NJ. P. I. Social Club met In joint con-
ference last evening, at Mozart Hall, to con-
slider the subject of arranging a series of
dramatic entertainments for the sum-
mer. The proposed measure was generally
discussed, and, from the interest exhibited,
We infer that the talented amateurs of these
popular associations are determined that
the usual dullness of the summer
months shall be enliVened in most enter
tanning manner After full interchange
of views and consultation, 1t was decided
to give the opening performance Of the
series on the 28th of April, on which occa-
sion will be produced the thrilling four-act
drama, entitled "Retribution," and the
amusing farce, "That Rascal Pat" in which
pieces the members of both associations
VIII be cast.
On the 18th of May the second perform
anee OF the series will be given, and the two
act comedy, entitled 'tMatrimony," ard
the farce "a Fascinating IndiViduar' will
be produced. The association will at
once commence the rehearsals of these
plays, and we venture nothing in predicting
that they will be presented in the very best
style and worthy the reputation our Savan-
nah amateurs have already earned. These
entertainments will be CONTINUED during the
summer, and due announcement of the
programmes decided upon will be made.
Subscription tickets for the two entertain
ments already arranged will be placed on
sale at the reasonable price of 81 so, admit
ting gentleman and lady to both entertain
ments. The price of a single admission
will be fifty cents TO each performance.

The Late Fire on BAY StreeT-state-
ment from HEF. Hudson.


SAVANNAH, February 2S.-Edator Morn isao
Meas: In communication in your issue Of
this date Mr.. Hanley states the late fire
originated in my place and nowhere else.
VIII he inform the public how he knows
such to be the case. He cites the names Of
three gentlemen whom he says AYERS such
to be fact. have seen but one of these
parties, and he denies authorizing any such
statement to be made. What he saw was
the fire coming from my Office first. Does
that fact establish It because a fire Is first
discovered at certain spot that It neces-
sarily originates there.
Mr.. Hanley, In his zeal to fasten the origin
of the fire in my place, is going a little too
far. happen to have facts in nv possession.
that while It is probable the fire was first
discovered bursting from my office, there Is
very good reason, In my opinion, for this.
and yet the origin of the fire be elsewhere
You will please correct the statement you
made in issue Of the oath inst. Instead of
removing barrels packed with shad ready
for shipment, say these shad were removed
from the ice In boxes located nearly one
third the length of the building from the
rear doors, while the fire was in full sweep
up stairs, and subsequently packed for ship
ment by New York steamer. AS for the
can OF kerosene oil and pistol Qoaded). thew
were taken from the ruins off from where
my Office once stood, which facts can be es-
tablished. Mr.. Fl. seems to confirm the
discovery and origin of fire as the same
thing. Yours truly,

A Charming Entertainment In Its
Aid.

Few enterprises in aid of a laudable OBJ.
1ect have been inaugurated in this city
under more favorable auspices than was
the entertainment at Masonic Temple last
evening By the Ladies' Church Aid Society
for the benefit of st. Matthew's Free
Mission. The ladies did not OBJ.
tain possession OF the hall until
yesterday morning, but went to work with
nearly GOOD viii, assisted by some gentle
men friends, and BY five o'clock the booths
were all arranged, decorated and made
brilliant with the display Of beautiful arti-
eles. Inc cafe and refreshment booths were
handsomely arranged, and looked SO In
ViGing ana tempting as to draw within their
pleasant portals even those who were not
hungry, ana when the bountiful array of
good things greeted the vision, appetites
became Been again. The fancy tables were
Wen supplied with numerous and beautiful
articles, and the fair ladies in charge of
them did thriving business. We
have not the space to note all the
beautiful articles that were so artisticaIlY
arranged, but may specially mention a tidy
OF unique design, representing "Miss Muf-
lei" SO famous In verse to every child,
which was exquisitely wrought by Mrs. DIR.
Geo. ID Stones which attracted great atten-
booth were also greatly admired.
a eight O'Clock the concert, which was
announced as a feature OF the evening,
opened, and was rare treat and most
highly enjoyed. There were no printed
programmes, and we will not attempt to
notice this most excellent musical enter.
tainment in detail. Suffice it that every
body was delighted, the talented singers
and performers heartily encored, and the
concert declared to be a brilliant success.
After this the floor was cleared
and there was dancing, which was
keenly enjoyed by the young folk. The
young LADIES meanwhile were busy with
their lists, and succeeded by their winsome
ways In securing numerous chances. Al
together the result of the fair was most
satisfactory, and as a spirit of liberality
seemed to possess the visitors we opine that
a handsome sum was realized.
To day there will be no admission charged to
the hall, and lunch and dinner will be served
from 10 o'clock until o'clock, at reasona-
bic prices, and those who feel inclined thus
to assist a worthy cause can rest assured
they will have q bountiful lunch or sump-
tuous dinner, prepared In the best style and
served by charming ladies.
We are requested to state that the carni-
val march, which will be the event of the
evening, viii take place at 6 o'clock and
will be repeated at o'clock, thus affording
an opportunity for those who cannot attend
so early to witness what will assuredly be q
beautiful and brilliant spectacle. The adj
mission to the hall for adults and children
Will be the same-ten cents only.
