These waters are begun in the middle and
are worked in enlarging circles round and

the old Massachusetts Sixth, which Will be
remembered as the first armed and equip.
ped regiment that marched to the relief OF
the national capital-arrived here yester-
day at the same hour and over the same
route traversed in 1861. On this day thirty
years ago, the Sixth Massachusetts in
fantry, commanded by Col. Edward +.

men killed and many wounded. The OBJ

ment over the deplorable event OF 1861.
Mayor Davidson, representing the city;
Col. w. H. Love. representing the state,
and three 6. A. Il. posts received the dele
cation at Camden station and escorted
them to the Carrolton hotel, preceded by a
band of music Some of the old veterans
of the Sixth were in line and were heartily
cheered, particularly by those who partlci-
pated in or witnessed their former recep-
ton in this city.
Upon arriving at Carrolltou, Mayor
Davidson, welcomed the visitors. He said,
''It is at once my privilege, as 1t IS my
pleasure, as the chief magistrate OF the
city of Baltimore, to tender to you its free
dom and hospitality Without self praise
or vain glory, the city of Baltimore can
truthfully say that its doors are always
thrown wide open to receive the visitor
from any other section of our common
country. But, gentlemen, your visit is
quite apart from that of the ordinary trav-
eler for business or pleasure. 1t is another
of the many evidences of that broad and
liberal spirit, ever to be expected and gen.
orally found in the brave and loyal veter-
ans of the war, who have forgotten, long
since. the heat and bitterness of the strug-
gle between the states, and laid them
aside for the more permanent conquest of
generosity and kindness and brotherly af-
lection.
I'VE welcome you to our southern land,
whose people have forgotten save as a
matter of history, the conflict which
brought out so much of bravery, Of forti-
tude, and SO many of the other virtues
which sprang up in cause prosecuted IN
honest conviction; but whose people do not
forget, while keeping green the graves of
the soldiers of the lost cause, to spread
the fragrant blossoms also upon the
mounds which cover the sleeping dust of
the Federal soldier.
I'VE welcome you TO our city, our hearts
and our homes assuring you that we shall
ever remember with profound pleasure
the honor you have conferred upon us by
your presence here"
Capt. Davis and Capt. Sisson, of the
visiting delegation, replied, expressing
great pleasure over the warm-hearted re-
ception they had received.
An informal reception followed. The
visitors Will remain here until Tuesday, in
the meantime receiving many attentions
from our citizens.

PROHlBlTORY PROHIBITION

SAVANNAH, Ga, April 20-A letter
from fernando county, Florida, gives Az
interesting account of the breaking up of
a blind tiger in the leading town Of that
section. 1t was local option town, with
not a saloon in the place Peace reignetl
supreme until a newcomer opened on the
outskirts an establishment at which he
professed to sell 'honey beer" In short
time the wives and mothers OF the town
noticed that their masculine belongings
spent an undue amount of both time and
money IN the honey beer place. and they
also noticed that the effects OF the bever-
were quite unlike those produced by honey
consumed at home. SO they resolved on a
course OF action One dark night they as
semoled. and. armed with axes and hatch
cts, marched IN procession 10 the store
where the "houey beer was sold. The
place was crowded with men as they Went
IN, but they said not a worI, but merely
went TO work with will. using their
weapons with such an effect that not =
barrel or cask escaped them; husbands
sons and sweethearts standing bv not
daring 10 As much as offer word OF re-
monstrance. When they were through
there was quite a fine lot Of kindling wood
left on the ground and the town WAS
minus citizen the next morning.
