THE WESTERN EDITORS.
CHAINED THE VISIT
ORs FROM THE LAND OF SNOW.

SPOI VIC ivy
The Wisconsin Press Association arrived
in Savannah yesterday morning on its
annual winter excursion. With the Wis
consn Press Association we're a number of
members OF the South Dakota Press Asso-
citation. Many Of the editors were accom-
panied by their wives and sisters, and the
whole party together numbered about $50,
1t was a good looking party Of solid, re-
spectacle, intelligent people. Judging by
appearances the Wisconsin editors are a
prosperous lot. The editors came
to Savannah for day of
rest. They had been travelling and sight
seeing for three days and wanted to take a
rest Uefore beginning the Florida trip. They
Old not however, get what they anticipated.
Savannah was totally unknown and so new
60 all OF them and presented such an at
tractive and inviting picture that they
could not rest, but with one accord plunged
into sightseeing for all it was worth. They
rode all over the city on the street cars in
tue morning and walked through the resi-
dence portion. As usual with visitors the
parks and streets came in for large share
OF admiration. Many of the visitors
went out TO Bonsventure and Thunderbolt
after dinner. The greater portion, how
ever, went down to Tybee on the 2 O'Clock
train and spent the afternoon on the beach
ana enjoyed an oyster roast. The visitors
we're overjoyed with the mild, delightful
weather, so different from the SHOWS and
billiards. which they bad left behind them.
