WITH CARBINEs AND PISTOLS.
The Hussars' Summer Practice at
Greenwich Park.


The Hussars' Summer Practice at
Greenwich Park.
The summer carbine practice of the Geor-
gia Hussars took place yesterday afternoon
at Greenwich park. The troop dismounted
and in full uniform assembled at its armory
at 2:45 o'clock, and, under command of Capt.
Gordon, marched down Liberty street to
Habersham, and was transported by special
cars to tine park. The company was divided
into three classes.
In the first class, Honorary Member d. M.
McAlpin won the first prize on a score of
Il. and the second prize by Private G. A.
Nlcou on score OF 40.
In the second class the first prize was won
by Sergt. II. B. Foye on score of 81, and
the second prize by Private A. S. Eichberg
on a score of 3d.
In the third class the first prize was won
by Private E. B. Flood by a score of 81, and
the second prize by Corpl W. f. Blois on a
score of n.
The prize in the pistol contest was won by
Private John d. Gould, on a score of %;
that Of the second class. by CorDl. c. A.
Fleming, on score of IS, and the third
class prize, by Private William Hunter.
After the contest the company
was drawn up in line. and Capt.
Gordon, in few weli-chosen remarks,
complimented the members upon their
Improvement in skill with the carbine and
pistol, handicapped as they were with
inferior ammunition-which the state has
been furnishing for the past three years.
This is a notable and most unfortunate
drawback TO the efficiency of the troop.
For some time the Hussars particularly
have been compelled to practice with ammu-
milton which is almost worthless and which
in times of trouble would jeopardize the life
of the man who would have to use It,
Nearly every member who fired a pistol
yesterday was compelled to pull down
twice OF more upon the same cartridge.
Private w. w. Gordon, Jr., presented the
prizes to the winners. After compliments
ing the winners on the good scores he re-
called to the company the fact that
the day was the anniversary of the
battle of Manassas, when, with a glo-
rious victory the southern fight for the
principles of the constitution had been in
augurated, and though the confederacy mad
ended in defeat, the southern people would
i ever cherish and reverence the sacred mem
cries of the lost cause. Mr.. Gordon finished
with a humorous allusion to the reasons
why he had failed to win prize.
After the contest and presentation OF
prizes the company adjourned to the arm
DRY, where 1t was entertained by Pay Mem
Der Daniel Speeches were made and the

FIGURING ON A OoMBINB.

Col. Hawkins Comforting With Middle
Georgia and atlantic People.
1t is generally believed in railroad circles
that the Savannah, Americus and Mont
gomery is trying to form combination
with the Middle Georgia and Atlantic to
get into Savannah and have common ter
minal on Hutchinson'S Island.
President Hawkins of the Savannah,
Americas and Montgomery was in the city
yesterday in attendance upon the river and
harbor conference, and after the meeting he
put IN the remainder Of his time until after
o'clock in visiting those interested in the
Middle Georgia and Atlantic. There were
other representatives of the Savannah,
Americas and Montgomery in the city also
and they and Col. Hawkins had long cons
sultation in the Pulaski house reading room
during the afternoon.
Col Hawkins Is a man who dosen't be-
lieve in letting the public into his schemes
until he Is sure of their contamination.
When approached by @ MORNING
NEWS reporter he declined to say anything
about the plans he proposes to adopt to get
into Savannah. He avoided interviews,
and slipped out Of the De Soto by the Lbs
erty street door and walked to the Central
depot, where he took the night train for
Americas.
A railroad man stated a few days ago
that the Savannah, Americus and Mont
gomery will be au arm shortly of the Louis
vile and Nashville and that all the trouble
between these two roads about terminals at
Montgomery will be settled before long.
The Louisville and Nashville is anxious to
get an outlet to the ocean through Savan-

the connection. The Louisville and Nash

Sam Dennis Puts Bullet Into Joseph
Leonard.
Joseph Leonard, white man, was shot
in the left hip yesterday in Kolshorn Bros.
saloon by Sam Dennis, one"of the negro
walters From the accounts of witnesses
the shooting Of Leonard was iustiflable.
A, Winter. the barkeeper, stated that
Leonard came into the saloon shortly before
the shooting occurred and tried to raise a
row with two men who were drinking beer
He ordered him to keep quiet, and was told
to mind his own business. Winter, with
the aid of Dennis, then put Leonard
out of the place. In a few
minutes he returned with a pistol in his
hand and started toward the negro. He
ran into a corner and Leonard followed and
snapped the revolver twice at his breast.
Dennis ran out into Congress street lane
with Leonard close behind. AS the negro
turned into Barnard street, the pUrsuer
fired upon him. Some one passed him O
pistol and he continued around Broughton
street without using the weapon, and ran
| back into Kolshorn's. Leonard followed
and again attempted to fire.
Dennis then fired TWO shots in rapid sue
cession at his assailant, one of which en-
tered Leonards hip. Winter ran out from
behind the counter and took the pistol
away from Leonard, and at the same time
ordered Dennis to put up his pistol.
The shooting caused quite an excitement,
and attracted a crowd, among which was
an officer. Dennis made no attempt to es-
cape, and surrendered to the policeman.
He was locked up at the barracks. The
ambulance was sent for and Leonard taken
to his home at No. g. East Broad street and
given medical attention.
The wound is not serious. but is suft1-
GENTLY painful TO keep Leonard off the
street for some time.
