PLANrING OF GEORGIA.
Her FOunder-His Aims and Work fol
the Colony.

Her FOunder-His Aims and Work for
the Colony.
The last settled of the English colonies
on the eastern coast of America, the feeble
plantation of Georgia, now become one of
the most tlOurishing Of the United States,
is conspicuous in the history of such es-
Establishments for the unselfsh motive that
prompted its settlement. None of the rea-
sons that have usually led to colonization,
especially of those that prompted its sister
settlements, entered to any great extent
into the idea of the last English venture
on these shores. The chief, if not the sole,
moving cause of Oglethorpe's task was
benevOlence to the poor, indebted class of
London and its precincts, to release in
nocent and unfortunate debtors, to dis
charge them from confinement, and to give
them fresh start in life, and so to reunite
separated families in land where legal
restraints were less rigid, and where
prosperity was q pOsSibility-this was the
principle of charity that warmed tire
hearts of OglethOpe and his associates
and urged their successful efforts for such
good ends.
The moving spirit of this great enter
prise was James OglethOrpe. No founder
of colony in ancient or modern times of
fers higher type of character as an hon
Orable gentleman, a sympathiZing and
ticing citizen, wise and successful magis-
trate, or a benevolent and conscientious
ruler-in every sphere conspicuous for his
integrity-than the originator and founder
of our own State. There was in him a
rounded dignity of character, from his
birth of gentle ancestry, through his early
and honorable career as a soldier on the
continent, through his useful service in
Parliament, through his ten wears of per-
sOnal oversight in founding and nursing
his colony, through his after military SER
vices in England and Scotland and his rise
to the highest rank of his cOuntry's army,
and, indeed. through the complete CEN
fury of his life, full of physical rigOr and
well preserved intellect and nerve, which,
! combined, produce an attractive and adj
+ mirable biography.
Nor is there wanting a spice of romance
1 to lend poetic interest to a career of so
much usefulness, honor and dignity.
/ When we remember that neither the year
/ nor the month, nor the day of his birth,
/ can be, with certainty. identified within
! ten years, that himself did not absolutely
/ know whether his name was James or
/ James Edward, whether he was born in
/ London or at the family seat of WestbrOok
/ Place, in Surrey; when we recall the story
af1oat in his infancy, and then believed by
multitudes, that he was the substituted
| child of the eXiled sOyereigHs of England,
adopted in place of their own dead infant,
we may we'll believe that the career of
this gentleman of the olden time'' lacked
no element OF fact or fancy to interest
| every generation of Englishmen and
| Americans.
! The most interesting years to Georgians
! of 0glethOrpe's long and active life, are OF
course those spent here on the soil of our

Incidents of the Day.


1t is remarkable fact that nOtwith-
standing the immense crowd that thrOnged
the streets, and the movements of the
large body of military yesterday, few acct
dents occurred.
The decorations of the city were general
in their character. Most of the business
places on BrOughtOn, Congress and Bay
streets were handsomely adorned with
flags and bunting.
The beautiful arch spanning the inter
section of BroughtOn and Bull streets at
tracted much attention. 1t was tastefully
decorated with palmetto, moss and
wreaths of cedar, surmOunted by flags OF
all nations, the centre floating the stars
and stripes.
The good order, dignity and freedom
from drunkenness was notable feature
of the exhibition. There were no indica-
tiOns of any outbreak, the result of over
indulgence, and more quiet and orderly
crowd was never known in Savannah.
The Committee of Arrangements, who
constructed and so faithfully carried out
the first days programme, are entitled to
the thanks of the people for its success.
The arrangements in every detail were
strictly followed and faithfully executed.
The distinguished visitors, including
His EXcellency Governor stephens, and
others from distant States, who took part
or witnessed the ceremonies Oh Jne uag
were loud in their praise of the manner
in which the programme was carried out,
and i'll commentator of the splendid ap-
pearance of the citizen soldiery of Geor-

The Pvrotecbnic Display.

Between and s O'Clock last evening
thousands of people wendell their way to
the Park extension to witness the pyro-
technic display, which was to close the
festivities of the first day of the celebra-

an accident and the rain in the afternoon,
it was found impossible to display sever

pale face. as pledge of everlasting friend
ship. Do not let the chain of love be
broken which these feathers typify. Be
true to yourselves and the Great Spirit
will guard you,
Our lands and rivers are yours. and
here we will smoke the calumet of peace
together The ties of love and sympathy
which should bind the Red man and the
pale-face to each other ON this continent,
ought to be as deep as the big waters which
have separated you from the bOundless
borders of this new world. Let US, hand
in hand, explore this beautiful prospect,
look above and beyond, and in the bonds
of a new friendship, new union, trust in
the Great Spirit who shapes our ends for
His glory and for justice in the cause of
truth.
Again we welcome you to our shores :
be of us, assist us to bear our burdens,
join in our pleasures, and Jet the Great
Mantle be our judge in all things.
After this the principal actors in the
pageant paid their respects to Governor
Stephens, who gave them cordial vel
come.
The line was again formed, and moved
at the head of the procession through Bay
to Whitaker, and down South Broad to
Abercorn, where'the parade was dismissed
and the pageant, under the escort of the
Savannah Cadets and their guests, was
escorted to the FoTd's Opera House, and
thus ended one of the most successful af-
fairs ever witnessed in Savannah
The excellent impersonatiOn of those
who composed the first gathering ON the
bluff on which Savannah now stands was
generally remarked. Officers, chiefs, SOL
dierS, cOlonists, sailors and Indians were
not only properly cOstumed, but acted the
parts which they represented.
The principal characters in the pa
geant were Messrs- Laurence Hanley as
OglethOrpe, J. N. johnson as TOmOchichi,
William A. Mccarthy as Medicine Man,
NJ. Seaman as Mary MusgrOve, James
O'Byrne as Col. VIM. Bull, members of
the Ford Dramatic Association. The
Captain of the sailors was Captain
Walter j. Thompson, of the pilot boat
Mary Odell, and his crew consisted of
Captains of the Tow Boat Company and
the pilots. The members of the Ford
Dramatic Association and their friends
made up the remainder of the pageant.
The costumes were furnished by Mr.. A.
r. Van Horn, of Philadelphia, gen
tleman who deserves great credit for his
taste in this affair. The whole arrange
ment was under the direction OfCOl. j. H.
Estill, Chairman of the subcommittee of
the Sesqui-Centennial Committee, and
President of the Ford Dramatic AssOcia-
ton.

THE RRNiaM-

When this part of the programme was
brought to a close, the military again
formed in line and proceeded up Bay
street, where they passed in review before
Governor Stephens in front of the EX-
change.
After the review the line of march was
continued to Whitaker street, when the
different companies proceeded to their
armOries with their guests, and the re-
mainder of the day was devoted to their
entertainment.

Charles Parsons, Jr This bull is regis
tered in the American Short Horn Herd
Book "a No. 1887. His siro was Belvi-
derc and his dam Lady Sale Eighth.
His pedigree runs back TO 1913.
Mr.. Breucr has the only herd of IIol
stein cattle in the State with the excep.
ton of u small herd owned BY Mr.. w.
NJ. Coleman, Of Seneca City. The IIol.
stems, Mr.. Brcuer says, are peculiarly
ndapted for grazing, Keeping in better
flesh while paSturing than either the
Short Horn or Ayrshire. Their milking
qualities are unsurpassed. Cows of this
breed have yielded as much rs 90 pounds,
equivalent to 10 quarts of milk, per day
and as much us % pounds of butter a
week. They are what is known as very
deep mixers and rarely go dry. Only
one of MIR. Breucr's cows has ever gone
dry. They have yielded milk from calf
TO calf. Their milk is said to keep
sweet longer than that of any other
breed, and is peculiarly suitable fer
making fine butter and cheese. Mr..
Breuer gives much attention to his herd
and has evidently gone into the business
with his whole soul. 1t would be n good
thing for the State if there were more
men like him.-Ncms and Courier.
