Well, We Are Happy.

Yes, and proud of it, too. We are in re-
ceipt of another letter from Mr.. Cleveland
acknowledging the receipt of the Suit, Hat
and Shirts ordered of us, and compliment
ing us highly upon our selection. The fit
Of the suit is perfect, the material of the
best, and made and trimmed even better
than the average merchant tailor will get it
up Ready made clothing is not of that
slop shop make it was years ago; improve
ments are made lit every season, the large
manufacturers North employ the very best
talent to design, and the most skillful me-
chanics to put the garments together We
get the bulk of our Clothing of house that
pays their foreman the salary of o. s..
Senator, but it enables us to guarantee
these goods in every respect, not only as to
the material and trimming but more par
ticularly the style and finish and the keep
ing of its shape. Our Clothing does not rip
nor lose shape after few weeks wear We
are beginning to get in some of our Spring
Novelties; they are daisies; come around
and look at them even if you are not ready
yet to buy. The balance of our Winter
Clothing we'll let go for nice song.

PISTOLS AT A WEpDINC.

Busy Day in Justice RusselPs Court -
Sunday Pastime with Cotton Hook.
1t was a busy day in Justice Warning
Russell's court yesterday. Robert s. Lord
(colored) was examined on a charge of Dr.
William Pollard for an assault with intent
to murder. The examination developed the
fact that on Feb II, Lord
thought that DR.. Follard's son was too
much of a master of ceremonies at the
nuptials of one of Lords relatives of the
same name so he laid for young Pollard on
the street and when the latter began to take
Off his overcoat Lord drew revolver on
him. He was bound over to the Superior
Court for a misdemeanor-pointing a pistol
not in self-defense.
Frank Farrell was bound over to the City
Court for striking Frank Rankin in the
head with a cotton hook last Sunday.
Charles Adkins, for wife beating, was
turned over to the City Court.
All the parties to the above suits are
colored, and the defendants gave bond for
their appearance

A Fire in a Clothes Room IS Extin-
guished With Slight Damage.
A telephone alarm Of fire was sent into
headquarters at $40 o'clock last night. The
fire broke out in a closet on the second floor
of a three-story frame residence at the
southeast corner of York and Habersham
streets, owned by Augustus J. Barrie, and
occupied by Mrs Eberhardt. The family
was absent at the time of the fire, and when
No. 3 engine responded the firemen had TO
break open the door before they could get
stream on the flames. The fire was quickly
extinguished. The contents of the closet,
and wardrobe separated only by parti-
tion, were destroyed, and a hole was
burned through the floor. The loss is $3.50
in household goods and clothing, fully COW
cred by a policy of $3.50 lin Haines a.

NO POLITICIANS NEED Apply.
White and Colored Preachers at the
Baptist Centennial.

Wh1t0 and COlOr6d Preach9rS at the
Baptist Centennial.
The committee having in charge the ar
rangements for the June centennial of the
negro Baptist church, in this city, is active
ly at work perfecting the plans for the cele-
bration.
Rev. Alexander Harris, President
of the Committee informed a MORNING
News reporter yesterday that quite a num-
Der of prominent white clergymen have
been invited to deliver addresses during the
centennial, among whom are DR.. Holmes
of this city, and DR.. Lathrop Of New York,
formerly of Savannah. Quite a number of
distinguished white clergymen of Georgia
have also been invited, as well as number
of colored clergymen from this and other
States.
Rev. Harris stated that neither the COM
mttee nor the church has invited or taken
any steps looking to the invitation of ex-
Senator Bruce or Fred. Douglass. The
invitations to these persons were made by
distinctvely political organizations, and had
no reference to the time of the African Bap-
fist Centennial, and the committee will have
nothing to do with anything which will
give the slightest tincture of politics to the
centennial There will be nothing of that
character connected with it.

CENTRAL RAILROAD MATTERS.
A Fifteen Hundred Dollar Subscrip-
ton to the Augusta Exposition.

A Fifteen Hundred Dollar Subscrip-
ton to the Augusta Exposition.
There was very little business of general
interest transacted at the meeting of the
Board of Directors of the Central railroad,
held yesterday, The subject Of the proposed
reduction of passenger tariff by the Geor-
gia Railroad Commission was left to be
dealt with by Gen. Alexander at his dis
erection.
The only questions which came before the
board were the approvals of some land sales
made by the road and that of a proposed
subscription to the Augusta exposition by
the three lines of road of the Central sym
tenn running into Augusta. After a can
vaSs of the maCter President Alexander was
authorized to make a subscription, the
amount of the same to be left to his own
discretion.
Gen. Alexander was seen by a MORNING
NEWS reporter late in the day and he was
asked if he was prepared to say what would
be the amount. He said that he thought
81 800 would cover the subscription of the
three roads. This will mean that the Cen
trail proposes to give $500 for each of its
Augusta lines.
