THE FILTERS AND THE TILT.
The Hussars' Congratulations to the
Mcintosh Light Dragons.

The Hussars' Congratulations to the
Mcintosh Light Dragons.
The last of the Georgia Hussars returned
from Atlanta yesterday morning. Although
they did not take the first prize, the Hussars
speak in the highest terms of their competi-
tors. There was a good deal of anxiety
among all the filters to know the score, but
the judges, after the style of the United States
army judges at tue May military drill in
Savannah two years ago, declined to give
it.
The Mcintosh Light Dragons tilted su-
perbly, and they made many friends while
at the tournament. On Thursday night, at
an informal supper at the Kimball, the
Hussars presented the Dragons with a
handsome sabre in flowers. Accompanying
the gift was card with the inscriptions
$50 the Mcintosh Light Dragons, with
the best wishes and hearty congratulations
of their sincere friends and comrades, the
Georgia Hussars." The sabre was formally
presented by Maj. Livingston later ON at
the ball to Miss Mansfield, the charming
young queen, who wore it during the eve

The Title Guarantee Company.

The Title Guarantee and Loan Company,
during the first month Of its existence, has
made three loans from the funds of the
capital stock, with two or three applica-
tions awaiting action. This is considered a
fair showing for so youthful an organiza-
ton.
The directors, it is stated, contemplate
loaning funds on the fiye-year plan, with
monthly payments, thus securing to bor-
rowers the advantages of the old time
mutual loan associations, but with rates of
interest much lower The estimated rates,
it is claimed, will not exceed Z or S per cent
per annum, while under tho old system the
rates ran frequently from 10 to IA per cent,
according to the age of the institution. The
Secretary estimates from present indca-
tions that the company will declare a divi-
dend OF Z per cent. from the savings of the
first year, which, considering the fact that
books, blanks aud stationery have to be
purchased from the first earnings, is re-
garded as good begi ming.

CASSIDY ONCE MORE QUIET.
His Motion for New Trial to Come Up
This Week.

Ill5 W eek.
Since Cassidy's latest plot to break Jail so
signally miscarried, he has had ample time,
in the solitude Of an untampered- cell,
TO take a retrospect of how fatefully his
jail conduct must reflect upon his hopes of
a new trial Thrice he has stood the hazard
of die. once attended by the wounding of
a co-cOnsprator, once with his own hands
choking the old guard Dinon, and a third
time with a rude, yet significant bludgeon
which he could have concealed for no other
than deadly purpose. Cassidy was very
quiet yesterday.
The time rapidly approaches when the
brief of evidence must be filed upon which
rests the prisoners hopes, possibly his fears,
for new trial Mr.. George L. Cam, the
court stenographer, said yesterday that he
would have ready in a couple OF DAYS the
voluminous testimony in the case. which
will cover 172 pages Of type-written legal
cap. Solicitor General duBignon said last
night that the State is ready for the motion
as soon as the evidence is in shape. 1t is
therefore likely that during the present
week the matter will come IN in the Supe-
Tior Court. There will arise the question. if
a new trial is denied, whether an appeal
will be taken to the Supreme Court, and if
so whether counsel for the prisoner in the
light of Cassidy's conduct in the Jail. will
tloh conblnuAHCo OIL Jne supeTSeueaS 70 pre-
vent the convicted man from being taken
to the penitentiary, or whether Cassidy
will be taken there at once in the event that
the motion for second trial is overruled
The repeated efforts of the prisoner to
break jail gives no feeling of security to the
community, which desires to see him pun
ished according to the penalty fixed by the
jury. They know that if he repeats at the
mines the insubordination he has been
guilty of here, he will be dealt with in q
summary way.

AMONG TIE YAcHTsMEN.
The May Regatta to Take Place at
Thunderbolt This Week.

Thunderbolt This Week.
The Savannah Yacht Club will hold its
May regatta at Thunderbolt on Tuesday.
A special meeting of the club was held at
the Office Of j. J. Dale, Esq, yesterday, for
the election of members. and to arrange for
the regatta. The following new members
were elected: II. r. Altck, A. Z. Bacon,
I. NJ. Battle, William Clifton, Richard =.
Cobb, James NJ. Dixon, Allen Hunter, n.
F, jackson, II. NJ. Law, D. l. MacIntyre,
George A. NicoH, ". J. O'Brien, John C.
Rowland, NJ. J. Solomons and W. NJ. Bent.
NJ. II. Dingle
The invitation from the Carolina Yacht
Club to attend their regatta was referred to
the yacht owners. The proprlety OF accept
ing the invitation was not discussed, as none
but the owners can definitely determine
that matter.
The annual regatta and rendezvous Of
Southern yacht cluts was discussed. The
club Is elated at tie idea of having the rem
devious in Savannah waters, and every
possible effort will be made TO secure the
regatta. The club concurred in the opinion
expressed by the MORNING NEWS that moth
ing would more advance yachting interests
in the South. AT the annual regatta
on Tuesday, the steamer St Nicholas will
leave the city for TIL underbolt about 8
o'clock, carrying the members OF the club
an3 their guests.
The Isle of Hope fleet will take part in
the race. The sale of the fast sailing
Jennie S., which has been a favorite in the
Savannah feet, removes not only a fast
sailer but popular yacht from the club.
The yacht was sold to Charleston parties,
and it is not improbable that she will sail
against Savannah during some of the sum
mer regattas.

RICE LOOKING WELL.
March and April Paintings Ready for
the Hoe.

A number Of rice planters were inter
viewed by MORNING NEWS reporter yes
terday, and it was learned that the March
and April paintings of rice are looking
well. Planters will begin this week to hoe
the rice planted in March, and by the time
it is gone over the April planting will be
ready for the hoe.
The next tide will fall on May %, and if
the May bird has gone North by that time,
the third planting will be begun. At pres
ent there are millions of the lean May birds,
so destructive to rice, lowering about the
rice fields, and the planters hope that by
May %, they will have migrated not to re-
turn until September, when, as a fat rice
bird, they will afford some compensation on
toast for the gluttony they practice in the
rice fields
Planters who have made estimates say
that the acreage this year will compare ia
vorably with last year, and they hope that
the Savannah bottoms will not be visited
by such freshets as diminished the rice
product last summer

argument on the motion in chambers at
