Court Elm City.

Annual Picnic and Il euniOn at Hamilton
Park - Music and Dancing. Bicycle,
Horse and Foot Races.
The annual picnic and reunion of Court
Elm City, A. o. F., took place at Hamilton
Park yesterday and was largely attended in
the afternoon. The committee of the court
were adorned with fne badges showing their
respective positions. Thomas orchestra,
with Captain Flaherty as prompter, were on
hand and about 2:3O o'clock the music
struck up and the first quadrille was called.
About the same time the Winchester and
Hooker mines appeared on the diamond and
a struggle for superiority commenced be-
tween these clubs. It was evident after the
first inning was played that the Winchesters
were far superior to their opponents in every
particular and this opinion was not in the
least changed the game proceeded, and
before it was half through the Hookers
seemed demoralized. Their catching and
pitching were poor, and when the game
closed they had scored what is known in base
ball parlance as chung hole" At the end
of the pinth inning the Winchesters did not
play the last half, as the Hookers went out
| without making score. The innings were

A Free show In the SSreet-Aneu-
matism. SwOrd-SwaloW1ng ana
Negro Ministries.

For several nights past Bull street, in the
vicinity Of Broughton, has been the centre
of attraction from dark until ten O'Clock.
Yamacraw, Old Fort, Robertsville, Curry
town, Frewtown, and also the denizens OF
the city within the walls, have gathered to
see free show, where by the aid OF a small
minstrel band and sword swallower, pat
emit medicine man attracts crowd and lee
lures on his infallible cure for the rheuma-
tism.
It is one OF the best free shows Of the sea
SON. aud the audiences are undoubtedly the
largest ever gathered around a street exhi-
bition. and are decidedly enthusiastic.
The Doctor, who runs the concern, having
heard that there were doubts as to whether
the Professor (Montague) swallows the
sword, or whether it is simply an optical de-
fusion occasioned by skillful feat OF ledger
domain. concluded TO call in the aid OF the
press and give a private seance, and, with
that object in view, he called at the MORN
ING NEWS office with the sword swallower,
and bearing two swords, one a knightly
blade with the mystic initials "F. G. B."
on the hilt, and the other a
weapon which had seen service under
the stars and bars, and which had been
kindly presented to Professor Montague by
an admiring Sergeant of Police in this city.
The Doctor claimed that the Professor
could swallow larger sword than any living
man. Whether this be so or not, the rep
resentative of the NEWS, by actual measure
ment of the weapon, ascertained that when
the hilt was against the Professors teeth
the point of the sword must necessarily be
in the vicinity of the bottom Of his (the
Professor's) pants pocket. How this
was done is a disputed point
between the two gentlemen; not the fact
that the sword is swallowed, but where it
goes to after it is introduced down his
throat. The Doctor claimed that by long
practice the Professor had succeeded in
pushing his "bread basket to one side, and
that the sword did not enter that important
organ, while the Professor asserted that he
runs the weapon straight through his stom-
ach, and in fact that so accustomed
had his digestive organs become to the
sword diet, that unless he poked his trusty
blade down the thCraX tunnel twice or
thrice day, he felt a decided craving for
the flavor of cold steel and experienced great
Inconvenience in that region.
Whatever course the sword may take,
whether It slips by the stomach or passes
through it, there is no doubt as to the fact
that the Professor makes a genuine swal-
low, and as the show is free we do not see
why any question should be raised about 1t.

sudden Death Of a Young Man.

the announcement yesterday that Mr..
james J. Mcmahon, Jr., young man in the
employ OF Messrs. John Flannery q Co.,
had been found dead in his bed early in the
morning, created painful surprise among
those who knew and esteemed him, as be
was a. his usual duties up to late Wednes-
day night and apparently was perfectly
well. His brother, Mr.. John 7. Mcmahon,
who sleeps with him, states that
about a quarter to four O'Clock
he was seized with sudden sickness
aud CONNER ed vomiting. He got up
twice, but returned TO bed, and the last time
apparently went 10 sleep. Mr. John 1
Mcmahon left him in this condition when
he arose in the morning, not imagining that
his brother was very in. About half-past
seven O'Clock his sister went up TO his room
tO cali him, and found him lying with his
face buried in the pillow. She Immediately
summoned ner mother, who hurried to the
room, and approaching the bed, changed
his position and gave him some water. DE
drank It, looked at her several seconds
without speaking aud dropped back, eXpir-
ing 8 few minutes after.
The Coroner was notified and held an in
quest, the only witnesses examined being
Alrs. Mcmahon and Mr.. John L. Mcmahon.
The Jury rendered a verdict that the de-
ceased came to his death from Prov idential
causes.
The deceased was not quite twenty
one years Of age, and was a young
man Of great promise, ranking high
in the estimation of his employer and all
who knew him. He WIS a member of the
irish Jasper Greens and also Of the Catho

In the issue OF the Sylvania Telephone,
under date OF December 26, 1881, there ap-
peared an article declaring that on the night
OF December 10, between Augusta and Bur
toms ferry, very disgraceful scenes were
enacted on the steamer Alice Clark by a
party of drunken men, and severely CEN
surfing the officers and crew of the steamer
Alice Clark for allowing such conduct.
We, the undersigned, were passengers on
board the steamer Alice Clark at the time
mentioned, and unhesitatingly pronounce
the statements made In the Sylyania Iele
phone false
1t is true that, owing to its being Christ
mas times, some few Of the male pas sengers
but, at the same time, they neither did or
said anything that could have been at all
obnoxious or offensive to anyone. Their
actions were not at all beyond the bounds
of propriety.
The article, as written, is calculated to do
harm to both the good name and character
of officers and crew and the boat itself, and
we heartily dPprecate the fact that the
editor Of the TelepAOne allowed himself to
be induced to write such an article before
first examining into the truth of the state
ments made him.
Captain Gibson and his crew are too well
known to the Savannah river people and
the travelling public to need any refutatiOn
of such slanderous charges from US; but,
having been passengers on the occasion re-
ferred to, we cannot but willingly unite in
declaring them untrue.

LIovd. the MapPubItsher.

The following account, given in a Nash
vile dispatch of the 1Otu inst, concerning
LLOYD, the "great" map publisher, will be
of interest to some in this city, who were
beguiled by his eloquence to invest in his
scheme:
81. T. Lloyd, who is now in jail here,
awaiting trial on an indictment found
against him OF obtaining money under false
pretenses, has had quite an interesting ex-
perience. About forty years ago he was
taken from an Orphan Asylum in Louisville
and given a good home. He remained at
his new home about two years, when he
suddenly disappeared and nothing was
ever heard of him by the lady who had
adopted him, until last spring, when Lloyd
called upon her in Nashville and convinced
her that he was none other than the boy
whom she had taken to her home so maLy
years ago.
"He told her that when he disappeared
he went TO New Orleans, and from there to
New York, where, in after years, he en-
gagged in selling books. He became a great
map publisher, and st one time was worth
over half million dollars, but a ser les of
reverses reduced his fortune. 1t is said that
he has been twice married, and that his
second wife, Virginia lady, is now living
near Washington, D. c., and is said to be
wealthy and owns beautiful home"
