DANCING FOR CHARITY.
Last Nights Entertainment of the

Last Nights Entertainment of the Y.
l.. V. 6. a Success.
Masonic temple has seldom held q
larger audience than it did last night at the
entertainment Of the Young Ladies' Vista
ton Society for the benefit of the poor of
st. Patrick's parish. Financially the affair
was decided success.
The entertainment opened at $50 o'clock
with selection by the Harmonic orchestra
which was changed into a fancy march to
keep time TO the pretty movements Of fifteen
young misses attired in neat white costumes
A "Galatean statue was represented with
splendid effect by Miss Purcell OF Augusta
The castanet dance followed. IL was per-
formed in perfect manner by the following
| young ladies dressed in Kirmess costume
Misses Phillie Gassmau, Stella Kennedy.
Viva Sullivan, Stella Gallagher, Annie
Kehoe, Mamie Vallou, May Kennedy, May
Hogan, Annie Hart, Florrie Banks, Mary
Vallou. Nellie Baker, Lottie Purdy and
Annie Keys.
The Sleeping Beauties" statuary, with
Miss Ellen Hunter as Queen" and crowd
OF pretty little misses jumped around, could
| not have been represented with mora grace or
effect Miss Hunter looked like magnffi-
cent work Of art as she posed, mounted on q
pedestal, under the glare of colored lights.
| 1no A0osulo VI tue enLerLalnnenG was tins
skirt dance by seven young misses. Their
movements were much more graceful than
many OF the professional skirt dancers on
| the stage, and the audience showed it's an
probation OF the dance by long and loud
applause. Those who participated in the
dance were Viva Sullivan. Stella Gallagher,
Mamie Vallou, Annie Kehoe. Florrie Banks,
Annie WALTON and Annie Keys.
At the conclusion OF the skirt dance the
hall was cleared OF chairs and dancing was
kept up for the audience until O'Clock.
The success of the entertainment is due in a
large measure to Miss Ellen Hunter, Miss
Mamie REILLY and Miss Maggie Clarke. who
trained the little girls in their parts. The
success Of last night will probably cause a
reproduction of the entertainment, at an
early day with some additional attractions.

pretty good thing. The session, unlike
those at Atlanta, was a brief one.
g. B. Whstley, Esq =, presided as speaker

There were few attractions Of parlia-

/ the Third Party in Georgia - The
/ First District Safe.
Hon. F. G. duBignon returned yesterday
morning from Blsckshear, where he spoke
! to the democrats Of Pierce county Thurs
| day. He left again at 80 O'Clock for Daw-
son, where he will speak at the democratic
rally to-day. tuesday Mr.. duBignon will
speak at MiIledgeville and Thursday at
Gainesville.
Before leaving Mr.. duBignon chatted on
the political situation in Georgia as he has
found it since his return from the north.
''The coming state election. said he, Twill
be the test Of the strength of the third
party in Georgia, and every
democrat should exert himself to
get out the full vote of the party in every
county. The third party leaders have been
declaring all through the west that Georgia
is sure for them, and the best answer to this
will be an over whelming democratic ma
Jority next month for the state ticket.
GEoRGIA'S ANSWER.
"It this is done the third partyiteg will
hardly be heard from In the November
election, and the followers of Weaver and
Watson will be numbered Ia the past history
OF Georgia. There is not the slightest doubt
in my mind that Gov. Northen and the
full state ticket will be elected, but
the democrats must see to it that the ma
lority will not be under 10000. A bitter
fight should be made against the third party
everywhere and the disciples OF the new
doctrine should not be allowed 60 carry a
single county.
THE greatest effort should be put forth
in the Tenth district in the October cleo
ton, and then the whipping Of Watson In
November will follow as a natural sequence.
The democrats must not, however, for an
slant give up the fight on Watson. Every
possible energy should be concentrated
without let up until the polls close,
WATSoN's GROWING STRENGTH.
at is no use disoounting Watson's strength.
He has big following, and it is pretty well
understood that the republicans are furnish
ing him money to carry on his canvass, but
If the democrats OF Georgia will aid fund,
and believe they will, Watson can be legit-
lmately defeated. It is the fight of the
whole state, and the election of Black is a
paramount issue. believe that when the
returns are all in from the Tenth district
W htSJn Will Dc Durlsu pollElcaIly forever"
What is the outlook in the First dis
trictI"
bright and encouraging replied Mr.
duBignoD. 1.-THE third partyites are making
a strong fight for Kemp but Lester is a
sure winner. Tattnall county, believe, Is
the stronghold Of the third party, but do not
expect to see It win there. In fact, l do not
believe Kemp will get county In the entire
district, but, nevertheless, it behooves the
democrats of Chatham To cyaf ayary
vote for Col Lester in order to give him
the largest majority ever given a candidate
so as he will be equipped for any shortcom-
ings."
