The South ia Prosnsro,ia.

That the south is prosperous and no
longer depends entirely upon the cotton
crop is shown by the fact that $50 ,O00, 900 is
locked up In cotton and yet everybody is
fairly prosperous. Money is rather tight,
of course, but according to Dun's report
business continues good. The remarkably
low price at which cotton has ruled from
the beginning Of the season has borne
heavily upon cotton producers and mer-
chants, but there is yet 500. 900 to be
distributed, and that will bring about a
vigorous and healthy state of trade that
viii benefit the entire country.
There is an ample supply Of money with
which to make the holidays as happy as
money can MAKE them. And there is hap
piness, too, in feeling that after Jan. there
win be. in all probability, an advance in the
price OF cotton that will release the millions
of dollars now locked upin that commodity.
Savannah has reason to be gratifled with
ths progress she is making in business, and
TO be proud of her business men and finan-
cial institutions. Her merchants and banks
have proved themselves to be fully equal to
the demands Of great aud growing com.

lard of New York, arrived here last night
from New York. She will cruise In Florida

regular visitor here every winter.
Mr.. Lorillard's new and novel craft
Caiman came in last night with the Reva
1t is strikTngly unique floating craft, being
literally a mansion on water and one Of the
first Of the kind ever built. The name is of
Spanish origin, meaning alligator. The
hull is Of steel and fat bottomed and round
ended like scow. Her length is SO feet,
width at top PAX feet and at bottom 20 feet,
depth Of hull 5H feet. The over hang Of
the guards is three feet on each side. Two
small steam engines propel her. A
six roomed house built of light pine covers
the entire deck space. Besides the rooms
there ere quarters for the officers and crew,
an ice house Of five tons capacity, state
rooms, pantry and kitchen. The living

A Question of CLIMATE.

At this season of the year the
shop windows are resplendent with
pictures Of Santa Claus. who is rep
resented as clothed in furs ana sur
rounded by snow and ice. These pictures
do not satisfy the southern idea of the good
old fellow who brings Joy to the hearts of
children. In this part of the south children
do not know what snow Is, and furs are
worn, not because they are needed, but be-
cause they are fashionable.
A real southern Santa Claus should be
dressed in accordance with the demands Of
the climate. A spring overcoat might be
permissible, but a surtout of bright, warm
color would be better.
A Cuban Santa Claus-that is a Santa
Claus arrayed in garments suitable to the
climate of Cuba-would be more In keeping
with the idea of Santa Claus which prevails
In this portion Of the south than the Cana
dian Santa Claus sent US from the north
This Santa Claus picture, however, is II
harmony with an impression which prevails
IN the north, namely, that what pleases the
northern people must suit the southern

A CUP FOR THE GUARDS.

Col Screven Presents the Corps an
Interesting Relic
A very interesting presentation took
place at the December meeting Of the
Guards last night.
After the regular business had been
transacted, Col John Scrsven, who was
present, addressed Col. Garrard and the
members Of the corps. The object of his
address was to present to the corps large
sd silver cup. the history Of which
the Savannah Volunteer Guards TO their
honorary member, David Bell, on the 47th
anniversary Of their existence as a corps,
and also the 47lh anniversary of MIR. Bells
connection with It. May l, 1S49.
Col. Screven pointed to the fact that the
Guards were organized In the troublous
times at the beginning of this century when
society was In a confused condition and
trouble was brewing with England and
with France.
David Bell was elected first sergeant OF
the corps, which position he held for nearly
forty years, a record uneQualed in the
membership Of the corps. He was with IL
In the war of 1912, he went with It to
the Seminole war In Florida, he was In the
ranks when they organized for the Mexican
war. He was still an honorary member
when che civil war broke out. but was too
old and infirm to accompany his
beloved command to the conflict. On
account of his faithful and uninterrupted
service he was honored by tAe command
with the presentation of this handsome Gu o
more than forty-two years ago.
A most interesting feature Of the preseuta-
ton was that Col Screven was the man
that presented she cup to David Bell. May
1, 1s49, and it was most fitting that hs
should be the person to return the cup to
the corps after lapse Of forty-two years.
Col. Screven took occasion to refer in his
address to the long list OF honorable and de-
voted men who had held membership In
the Guards slsce the Organization Of the
corps. aud the chivalric pride which thew
took in the command, which spirit, he said,
had always animated the Guards and did so
till this day.
Col. Garrard replied In behalf of the
corps, accepting the cup, which will be
placed among the treasures OF the corps.
The corps is accommodating quite q number
Of valuable relics of similar character,
which win be given special place In their
new quarters.
The cup is large aud handsomely chased.
of solid Silver. It is Inscribed as follows:
Presented by the Savannah Volunteer Guards
10 their esteemed honorary member, David
Bell, who for forty-seven years has been con-
splcuous In the discharge Of his duties as sol
der. and ia private life exemplary as citizen
and gentleman. May !, 1896
David Bell died at Louisville, Ga.
shortly after the war. His body was
brought back to Savannah by the Guards
and inferred with the highest military
honors. The cup was obtained from q
relative, into whcse hands it had fallen. II
will be on exhibition In the window of

Mr.. D. II. Elliott. of Florida, talking Of
the Call-Davldson contest in Chicago the
other day, is reported In the Post of that
city as saying: "The fight over the senator
ship was very bitter, and If the contest is
carried into the United States Senate aad
continued with the same acrimony It will
cause a serious breach In the Democratic
party in the state. The governor gave Mr..
Davidson certificate Of election as senator
on a technical point. which the majority of
our people think was not right. Davldsons
acceptance of the certificate under such cir
cumstances will injure him before ths PEG :
pie" 1t Is hardly probable that the contest,
whether bitter or not, will divide the dems
ocrats of Florida into two fac
tions. There Is good deal
of feeling there over it, but not enough
to bring about such a condition OF affairs as
Mr.. E;Acts Sinks probable. Mr.. Elliott is
of the opirion that the democrats of Flor
ida will adhere 70 Mr. Cleveland for the
democratic nomination for President under
any and all circumstances

Emma Juoh's Engagement.

The sale of seats for the engagement Of
the Emma Juoh Grand Opera Company
Will. begin at Davis Bros this morning.
Director Locke's reasons for selecting "Tanu-
hnuser" for the Savannah engagement were
two-fold. Wagner's famous romantic opera
has never been heard here. and as Eliza
beth, the role which Miss Juch will assume
In "Tannhauser, she is said to have no
equal. the second reason is that for the
correct Interpretation of the different CHAR
acters In "Tannhauser" the full strength
OF the Juch company is required.
In the way of scenery, costumes and
paraphernalia the Juch company Is un-
rivaled It travels with it's own special
train Of nine cars. and its equipment in
cludes every requisite for the proper and
complete production OF every opera Of its
repertoire.
