STARS SANTA CLAUS CLUB
Over Twerty-eight Hundred Dollars
Raised and Expended
A Fund That Has Been Used in Re-
mas-The Final Statement.

The Evening Star Santa Claus Club for
1888 has closed its accounts. 1t raised a
good sum for the relief Of the destitute,
and especially to help poor children, and
the money has been expended with care in
different parts Of the city. The clubs work
was performed at most opportune time,
Tor there was no other charity fund Of any
amount existing. The club was designed as
Christmas charity and the work Of relief
began Christmas week Hundreds of pairs
Of shoes for little ones whose feet were
nearly bare, clothing for shivering ones,
substantial articles of food for hungry
ones and supplies OF coal and wood were
distributed under the direction of the gen.
tlemen In different parts Of the city who
generously gave their time to the work.
The membership of the club in 1898 as in
1892 came largely from the public schools.
For this reason, and also because no more
ehcient agency exists, the public schools
were used as the means Of reaching deserv-
Ing cases. The children who wore the gilt
star and blue ribbon of the club formed a
big array of scouts under the direction of
their teachers. Cases were reported and
Investigated. lists were sifted and consoli-
dated by the teachers. and finally when
these lists reached the supervising princi-
pals, the club had in it's possession quite a
thorough Ger sus of the needy ones In differ
ent school divisions.
In compliance with the spirit Of the club,
as IT Is children's charity. a special effort
was made to discover and relieve families
where children were suffering. but much
charitable work was done outside Of this
As The Star predicted, the result has been
one of the browning glories OF Christmas,
1888. Over $500 was raised by the club,
and nearly all has been expended. This
exceeds the money raised the preceding
year by nearly $500. Notwithstanding the
fact that the general stringency which has
been the cause OF 50 much restitution, was
also likely to reduce the amount Of money
paid into the club. While the cause men,
TONED produced some falling off in the num-
Der Of members. friends of the club, touch
ed by the appeals for the poor and recog-
nizing the club as a most efficient agency
for quickly relieving the distress existing
contributed more generously than a year
ago.

The Charge Against Him of Selling
Liquor on Sunday Not Sustained.
The case against George Beckman, who
was charged by Isaac Levy with selling
him glass of beer at Turner hall bar on
Sunday, July 1, was dismissed by the re-
corder yesterday morning. The city's
witness made out very weak case.
Beckman keeps a saloon at No. 1917 JEFF
ferson street. Levy first charged him
with selling him beer at the Turner hall
bar on three Sundays, July l, s and l5
He Eafterward withdrew the last two
charges and simply made the charges on
the first date mentioned. Levy testified
that Mr.. Beckman was behind the bar and
sold him a glass of beer on Sunday, July
]. Mr.. Beckman established by the most
positive evidence that he was at Tybee all
day on that Sunday with his father-in-
law, who keeps the light house, and that
he did not return to the city until late
that night. The recorder dismissed the
charge against Mr.. Beckman.
Charges were preferred by Levy
against G. II. r. Thorpe, whom he
charged with selling him beer at the
Turner hall bar on two Sundays, July s
aud 10. Mr.. Thorpe testified that he did
not sell Levy any beer on the Sundays in
question, and that he did not remember
seeing him there on those days. Mr. John
Wohanka and Mr.. A. O. Labiche whom
Levy testified were in the place when he
brought the beer, denied having seen him
there p. j. OConnor, Esq, who repre-
scented Mr. Thorpe, made the point that
the Turn Verein, which has its CLUB at
Turner hall, being chartered club, had
the privilege of selling beer to its mem
bers on any day in the week. Mr.. O'Con-
nor asked for time in which to prepare
brief in the case, and the case was
postponed at his request until this morn
ing
Levy stated that he had large number
of cases against saloonkeepers which
will be shortly entered upon the docket.
Mayor McDouough, when asked about
this, said that he expected there would
be more cases of this kind brought up in
the police court next week.

THE oeLETRoRPEs' BIG DAY.
To oeleb rate the Anniversary of Ma

nassas Next Monday.
The thirty-third anniversary of the
first battle of Manassas will be celebrated
by the Oglethorpe Light Infantry next
Monday, July %. Saturday is the date
of the anniversary, but on account of this
being an inconvenient day for the celebra-
tion, it was decided to have it on Monday
instead.
The Oglethorpes have celebrated the
anniversary of the battle of Manassas
regularly every year since their re-organ-
lzatlon after the war. The company was
at Camp Northen during the anniversary
last year, and so mined its celebration
to firing salute in honor of the day.
The celebration this year will vary
somewhat from that of previous years
The organization of the First Georgia
regimentinto two battalions has thrown
the Oglethorpe Light Infantry, the Sa-
vannah Cadets and the Pooler Light In
fantrY into the second battalion The
connection between these three companies
is very close. The cadets were
chiefly Differed from the Ogle-
thorpe Light Infantry when they were
organized at the outbreak of the war and
and close friendship has always ex-
listed between the two companies. The
Pooler Light Infantry, the baby company
of the regiment, is Otficered by former
members of the Cadets and Oglethorpes.
The three companies win parade together
Monday afternoon. This will be the first
appearance of the battalion in
public since it's formation. 1t
will also be the first appear
ance of the Pooler Light Infantry as a
company upon the streets of Savannah,
and so viii serve as an introduction for
them to the people of Savannah. Capt.
Rockwell of the Oglethorpes, as senior
captain, will be in command of the bat
talon. Mr.. A. r. Lawton, Jr., who was
recently elected major of the battalion,
will not have received his commission by
that time, besides he will not be in the
city.
There will be a large turnout of all
three companies. The Oglethorpes will
make special effort in this direction and
every man who is able to shoulder a gun
will be in hne. All the veteran mem bers
Of the company in the city have promised
to be in line. The battalion will leave
the armory at 5 80 O'Clock in
the afternoon and will parade
through the principal streets of
the city. After the return to
the armory refreshments will be served
in the Oglethorpes' room The officers of
the regiment will be invited to be present,
and it is likely that some interesting re-
marks upon the records of this famous
old company, and its famous commander,
BARROW will be made by those who par
ticipated in the stirring events of thirty
odd years ago.
