MISS YAW HEARD LAST NIGHT.
She Had Cold. Eut Nevertheless pe'
lighted a Large Audience.


Tho interest which has for the last
few DAYS centered around the appearance
Of Miss Ellen Beach Yaw. the phenome-
nal SOPRANO, in this city, eliminated last
night in the gathering OF one OF the
most distinguished and fashionable audi
euc.s Of the season at the Academy OF
Music. Few faces that are at all familiar
in local musical circles were missed from
the throng. Unfortunately Miss Iaw, Who
was suffering from a severe cold. was
not heard 10 con plete advantage, but her
voice was a revelation, nevertheless. IL
displays an almost perfect method. Her
voice Is at its best from u. to C.. where
the tones are round and even, her top
notes are pure and respnant, but in the
low register her voice lacks sympathetic
quality. in Proch's Theme and Naria-

Shocking. Yet Ludicrons.

most shocking yet ludicrous thing &C.
currel Sunday morning in oae of the leading
churches of this city says the Cincinnati
Tribune. A beautiful young woman was the
person guilty OF what to all good Chris ians,
was an objectionable sin.
She was c -egantly attlred, and wore one OF
those peculiar wells that fit closely over the
bonnet and face and tie in a sort Of hangman
moose under the left ear. After an eloquent
and impressive sermon the bread in silver
salvers was passed down the ais,eS by the
members of the session. The lady who wore
the curious veil took piece OF bread and tried
to slip the knot at the ear failing in which
she endeavOred vainly to put the morsel Of
bread under the veil into her mouth put she
only drew the loop tighter. she hlushed grew
vexed, and tossed the typical fragment of
bread carelessly into the aisle. he elder
turned just in time to observe Eer, ami the
plate almost fell from his hands. : everal
other faces took on q horrihed expression and
then smile. The fashionable young woman
would have given her hope of heaven to have
been able to retreat from those glances, but
quick as she was after the service TO reach the
door. she was not soon enough to escape the
minister, who reprlmanded her privately on
the sins Of fashion.

Nothing to Fight For.

For the alleged purpose OF illustrating how
the women Of the south helped along the
war" an officer describes in the Grand Rap
ids Eagle, a scene of which he was an amused
eye witness. gang OF sherman bum
mers, he said, had captured plantation on
which were many hens and chickens.
They wrung the ne ks OF the chickens and
then proceeded to gather the eggs. all the
while LAUGHING at the angry lady OF the house
Just then some confederate cavalrymen
came down on charge. The union boys re-
treated a short distance, and made hurried
preparations for fight.
The woman ran up to the confederate officer
in command, and declared that she wished to
help whip the yankees.
Very good. - said he. Get up on the fence
and hOller a them
The woman, dead in earnest. mounted the
fence shook her fist, and shouted:
oh you miserable yankees! You have
taken every chi ken on the place."
What that" demanded the onicer.
Taken all the chickensf then there is moth
ing left worth fighting for"
With that he rode away, leaving the woman
on the top of the fence shaking her fist at the
yankees and calling them names.

where De south,. money Coz.

The MORNING News a few days ago, in
an article on the industrial outlook in the
south, urged the southern people to in
vest their money at home. This advice
has attracted considerable attention and
excited favorable comment.
If the southern people since the war
had invested their money in their re-
spective localities, the south would now
be enjoying far greater degree of pros
perity than at present. The cotton crop
is a money crop and brings into the south
vast amount of money every year.
Until within the last year or two the
greater part of this money has been sent
to the north for manufactured articles
and to the west for provisions.
The southern people are Just beginning
to find out that they can produce the
meat and grain they need for themselves
and stock and in some of the southern
states, notably in Georgia, they are doing
1t. They find it pays them to do it,
What they want now is factories to
make the clothing they need and the sgri-
cultural implements and machinery re-
quired on their farms and the ties and
asked. where is the money to come from
to build the factories2 The southern peo-
pie themselves can furnish it, Their sur
plus every year amounts TO millions of
dollars. This money, instead Of being in
vested at home is wasted in specializing
cotton futures. The loss of money in
this way is not confined to the cotton
factors and buyers in the cities. 1t is
shared by cotton planters. and amounts
to an immense sum annually.
The southern people think they know
all about cotton and they speculate in it
because they feel confident that it offers
the surest road to wealth. Repeated
losses do not seem to discourage them
Year after year they put their surplus
moaey in margins on cotton futures and
almost always they lose it. They would
stand as good chance of winning a fortune
If they should invest in lottery tickets
They are gambling against men who have
millions of dollars at their command, and
somehow or other the market goes against
them before they are ready to close their
contracts.
If the south had put into cotton facto-
ries the money she has lost in cotton
futures in the last twenty years she
would now be IN position to manufacture
the whole of her cotton crop, and, be-
sides, she would be vastly richer in other
respects. The best advice the southern
people can have is to stop specializing in
cotton. They will then soon have enough
money to build factories, open mines and
clear new lands for crops. They can
make the south the most prosperous sec
ton of the country without the aid of out
side capital.

The Public Squares.

1t is apparent to every one who gives
the subject attention that very little is
being done to beautify our streets and
public squares. No attempt whatever is
made to protect the grass. The ordi-
nance for that purpose is not enforced,
and, consequently, people are neglecting
to care for the grass plats in front of
their residences on the paved streets
Unless something is done to rouse the
city authorities to activity in this matter
it will not be long before the general APP
pearance of the city will be as ragged and
unkempt as it was before the work of i'm
proving the streets and squares was be-
gun. When it is seen how great the pos
sibilities for identifying the city are, and
how little is being done in that direction,
one is inclined to wonder whether the
time will ever come when public senti-
ment will force the authorities to adopt
a systematic plan for making the streets
ana squares attractive.
A few trees have been planted in the
squares this spring, but not a tenth of
tree planting has been done that ought
to have been. No grass seed has been
sown in the squares and no compost has
been spread upon the squares to assist
the grass already there. Ana all the
dead grass and leaves, not only in the
squares, but also in the park, are raked
up and removed, leaving absolutely moth
ing for the grass and trees to feed upon.
Much of the matter taken from the
streets would be OF inestimable benefit to
the grass and trees, and if it is not advis-
able to use it tor that purpose, a fertilizer
OF some kind should be put upon the
squares. If something of the sort is not
done, the trees will cease to be thrifty
and the squares themselves will be as
bare as Madison square near the De Soto,
which the boys have been permitted to
ruin.
A committee of citizens interested in
identifying the city ought to have charge
of the work of planting trees and grass
and other improvements of that kind
Until there is such a committee little will
be done towards making Savannah more
beautiful city.
