Masonic Hall.

Masonic Hall.
Lovers Of high class vocal and instru-
mental music were out in force last night,
and listened to well selected programme
rendered by the Mendelssohn Quintette
Club, assisted by Miss Lila Juel, prima
donna.
The concert was given at Masonic hall
under the auspices of the Young Men 5
Christian Association. Every seat was
taken and many were compelled to stand.
The club played itself into favor
with the audience from the
start and after each number was
loudly applauded MIR. Thomas Ryan,
direction of the club, played fantastic ar
ranged for the clarionet and in response
to a hearty encore, played Robin Adair''
most exquisltely in style peculiar to
himself
The solos for violoncello by Mr.. Hoff-
man, were fascinating and won for him
applause after applause.
Miss Juel, the Swedish prima donna
was given most cordial reception. She
was in excellent voice and at the closing
of the concert was applauded to the
echo and responded by singing annie
Laurie" although she had sung encores
to each of her songs. Miss Juel left
Sweden year and half ago and has
become deeply attached to this country,
where she has received so much favor
and admiration. She is slender and
graceful, with glorious dark eyes, and
makes most charming addition to the
club

INTERESTING SUITS.
A Question as TO the Rights Of a
Steamship Captain When Under

A Question as to the Rights Of a
Steamship Captain When Under
Contract.
There will be heard in the court Of ad-
miralty Dec, II, case in which all ship
pers Of cotton and naval stores are direct
ly interested, and the outcome of which
may have much bearing on that class of
commerce.
The case or cases are those of j. Cuyas,
Hoist q Weber, Strauss 81 Co, and
others, against Thomas Robinson, master
of the steamship Vulcan. The plaintiffs
in the suit have had the ship chartered
on different occasions to carry cotton to
Barcelona. The captain, instead of going
direct TO Barcelona, went to Genoa
first and then to Barcelona. On
account of the fact that the shin
first went TO Genoa, an Italian port, a
higher duty was charged at Barcelona
when the cotton was landed there This
is one of the Spanish laws, and the ques-
tion TO be decided is whether the shipper
can or cannot require that his cargo be
transmitted direct, and this extra duty
thereby avoided.

OF all the popular American airs. t

OF all the popular American airs, the
favorites of Edouard Remenyi, the great
violinist, are "Suwannee Rivers and
"Dixie." 1t recently came to the notice
Of Mr.. Remenyi that the author of
Dixie" Mr.. Dan Emmett, was living in
poverty in an obscure town in Ohio. The
fact so touched the heart of the genial
genius that he Immediately set about to
raise fund for his relief, and started
it himself with a contribution of $50
That man who could compose ''Dixie''
should live in poverty in enlightened
America is something unaccountable.-ad.

Oysters and Terrapin Stew and
Chicken Salad and Where They
Were Invented.
There was celebration at George
town, S. c., New Years day, to which
the natives of that good old town focked
from far and near to renew old friend
ships. In the evening the members of
the Palmetto Club entertained the guests
in the city in royal state with a dinner
served in old Carolina style.
After the regular toasts, Mr. M. ],
Solomons, one of Savanuahs Oldest and
most respected citizens, a native of
Georgetown, and an honored guest of the
occasion, in response to call from the
chairman, made a speech, which the re-
porter of the Charleston News and
Courier says, "struck a responsive chord
in every breast"
The writer said that Mr.. Solomons,
whose boyhood days were passed in
Georgetown, where his honored ances-
tors lie buried, favored the meeting with
an interesting and entertaining speech.
His "reminiscences of old GEORGETOWN
were highly enjoyed.
Referring to the lack of good hotels in
some places in the south today, the gen
tleman said that it was different in the
| olden times. Then southern hotelkeep-
ers were noted for their famous cooking,
! and Georgetown had two ladies each of
| whom kept hotel, the names and fame
| of which We're known all over
| the land. IL is a tradition, said
/ the speaker that when the AS
tor house, in New York was about
! to be opened. its chef was sent to George
town to acquire the art of making oyster
| and terrapin soups and stews, and
| also to learn how to cook the
savory duck "a la Carolina, -
and il is also said that Delmonico sent his
chef there to learn the secret of making
chicken salad, for which Georgetown has
| long been famous.
! Mr.. Solomons won his way to every
heart by his charming manner, and he
contributed no little TO the hilarity of the
! evening.

TO BUILD A NEW CHURCH.
Bishop Nelson's Petition to the City
For a Lot.

For a Lot.
The Episeopalian diocese, of Georgia,
ownsa lot in the southern section Of the
city, upon which it is proposed to build
church at an early day. The lot was
given'to the diocese a good many years
ago by DIR. L. A. Falllgant, being a por-
tion of large lot of land owned by him
in that section. 1t is near the corner of
Bull and Eleventh streets, on what is
commonly known as Lamar avenue.
At the time DR. Falligant gave
the lot 1t fronted on the lines
of Bull street extended as then
laid out. When the southern section was
added to the city's jurisdiction it was in
tended to run the lines of Bull street
straight south without any detection,
which would have placed the church lot
on Bull street, as expected by DIR. Ealli-
giant when he donated it. After the
troubles with the Vernon Shell Road
Company, however, the city decided more
recently to defect the lines of Bull street
so as to follow the line Of the shell road.
This changed the fronting of all the lots
on the street in that section, leaving the
church lot about so feet from Bull street
AS 1t is intended to build
a church there as soon as arrangements
can be completed for the purpose. Bishop
Nelson has petitioned the city council TO
buy the intervening lot between the
church lot and Bull street and donate it
to him for the purposes of the church.
DR.. F'alligant will support Bishop Nell
sons petition, as he claims that he gave
the right Of way through his property in
that section for the city streets on condi-
ton that the lines Of Bull street were to
remain unchanged.
The petition has been referred to the
committee of council on city lots. What
will be done with il cannot be said, but
as the city has made donations of prop
erty to churches in the past it is not i'm
granted.

The Savannah wheelmen have given up
their club house on York street. The
members found the club a very pleasant
resort during the time it was conducted,
but the hard times, which have cost some
of the members their situations, caused
the expense to be rather heavily felt, and
for this reason it was decided to give it
up for time. The wheelmen will secure
a room at which to hold their meetings
until they feel able TO reopen the club.

Senator Hill's Speech.

Senator David B. Hill in assuming

delivered the following speech, which
is regarded by many as the greatest
speech delivered by any public man in
many years.
Our opponents, by the vigorous beat
ing of bogus political tom-tous. and the
iusistence upon petty and misleading
loca! issues seek to divert the public
attention from the uDenviable record
which they made during their recent
four years control Of the federal govern
ment. Tie people have not, however,
forgotten the fact that it was a repub-
lican administration, which, in that i'll
fated year of 1890, saddled the country
with unwise and vicious legislation
which has since crippled its prosperity,
endangered its finances and augmented
its public burdens. The people remem
