AuPusta and the Hour.
From the AUGUSTA (Ga.) Chronicl

From the augusta (Gd.) Chronicle.
Thursday petition was being circulated
by Mr.. Jake Platt for signatures, asking
Mayor May to change the city clock to the
seventy-fifth instead of the ninetieth merid-
ian time
The banks are said to favor the seventy
fifth time, as clause in their constitutions
requires them to open at 9 and close at ,
o'clock, and the officials would prefer to
close early. The overwhelming sentiment
seems to favor the ninetieth meridian time,
and hon. r. H. May this morning publishes
a notice instructing the city employees Of
the change.
The Narrow Gauge will conform to the
change. Also the factories and machine
shops.
A reporter called on Supt. S. A. Hemp
hill. of the Georgia railroad, and asked him
how, the 18th would do as compared with
the Goth. 1T will not make a particle of
difference TO the railroads" he said, but
should think that the wlsest plan would be
TO conform to the time used by the whole
State. The only road i'll Georgia using the
18th time is the Richmond and Danville, and
they use it on account of their connections.
A travelling man changes his watch when
he reaches the Savannah river, and going
West will use blue time until he runs into
Chicago or st. Louis.
Mavor May was seen in the afternoon,
and stated that he had received no petition
as vet, but that his order had gone out for
the change to take place Sunday at noon.
Chairman O'Connor has given instruc-
tions for all the city employees to work by
the changed time.

Here is group of pretty hats that have
appeared on the promenades or been laid
away for summer glories when the warm
days come.
a big portrait hat of black velvet to be
worn by tall rosy blonde turns up reso-
lutely on one side, and its wide brim comes
well down over the face in front. Broad
| silver lace edges it about and three or four
half plumes of black ostrich feathers hang
over the crown mixed with white aigrettas.
There are bows of white satin ribbon and
| long streamers of white lisse.
| A large low-crowned Leghorn straw has
the brim behind turned up and fastened
upon the crown. Out from beneath it start
long sprays of English ivy, which cover
| the hat almost completely over \ big
rOsette of very pale pink tulle is placed on
one side with dark-feathered bird hid in
| its folds.
A small, close capote has its crown
composed entirely of rose foliage with
red buds and pink half-opened flowers
| showing here and there. Green velvet is
rolled about the face and the strings are
green tulle.
A poke bonnet in the reigning style is
covered with golden-blo own shaded tulle,
shirred loosely over a wire frame. Large
pink chrysanthemums are massed on
the crown, flower or two falling down at
the side to mix with the long tulle stream
ers.
A second capote is covered with green
crepe de chine partially hidden under gilt
tering gold lace in an intricate openwork
design. Ox-eye daisies and shaded ribbons
are the trimmings, but the glory of the bon
net is sgold, which would go well with the
jewels of the Queen of Sheba.
A big poke for summer wear is made of
Leghorn straw The brim is lined with
green velvet and tangle of wild roses
thorny ones-is garlanded about it and
hangs down behind.
But, madame, it cost over $50 to i'm
port"
II can't help that. l like it and it's just
my style But to pay that sum for a hat for
just one season goes against my conscience.
l couldn't say my prayers Thirty dollars
is my limit even If have to wait till after
opening day and get one Of the imported
bonnets copied here.n
This was a fragment of conversation over
heard in a milliner's show room yesterday.
Five minutes later the $50 bonnet had over
come the scruples of its half willing victim
and was being packed for sending home.
Great is the spring bonnet 1t prevails over
the most prudent feminine mind.

NEwLY-ELECTED PRESIDENT OF ECUADOR
When the Republic of Ecuador was con-
stituted, May II, 1880, General Juan Flores,
who had founded it, was made its first
President. The gentleman lately elected
President, Don Antonio Flores, is a son of
that illustrious man. Another thing that
makes FloreS's election an unusually inter
esting event to America, is the fact that he
is now Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
States. He is now absent from Wash
ington, staying in Rome, where he
has had several interviews with
the Pope. Don Antonio Flores is a
diplomatist of distinction. He has
negotiated lately treaties between his gov
eminent and the government of France,
Belgium and Germany. In the course of a
busy life Flores has been Minister to Peru,
Chill, the United States, France, England
to the Vatican, Germany, Spain, Portugal
aud Belgium, and for the second time he
was sent to the United States. He has been
in the Senate of Ecuador. and served under
his father at the first taking of Guayaquil,
in 1860, where he was wounded. In 1888 be
commanded a brigade at the siege and at
tack of Guayaquil, and was one of the first
to enter the town. The National Assembly
rewarded him with one of the four medals
distributed after thetampaign.
Don Antonio Flores excels in political
oratory as in diplomacy, and is an author
of considerable note. He is Corresponding
Member of the Royal Spanish Academy.
Among his works are: "El Gran Mariscal
de Ayacucho," of which a second edition
was published in New York in 1885, MAT
uralization in the United States" spanish
Letters to the United States" "Law of
Banks" Conversion of the Anglo Ecua-
dorian Debt" etc. This interesting and
useful man. whose labOrs as a statesman
have been chiefly for the promotion of COM
merce, lightens the seventies of his toilsome
researches by the composition of verses, in
which he is declared to be an expert, and,
what is more, his poems have qualities Of
genuine inSpiration

OrCheStrOne.

We have received the sole agency of tie
new instrument called "OrcheStrone. It's
in the shape of a regular parlor organ, and
operated by two foot-pedals; plays any tune,
and any one without the least musical in
struction can play it. 1t produces the most
difficult fantasies, overtures, sOnates and
the popular music of the day. The Combi-
nation Orchestrone Organ, with regular
key board, can either be played by itself as
any other parlor organ, or as an accompa-
niment to the Orchestrone. No words can
describe 1t; it must be 'een and heard. 1t
is superior TO all other instruments of this
class. We will sell il at special low intro
ductory prices. Call and see and hear it.
