 In connection with MT Peters lecture it might not be amiss to state that the de- nomipationsl census of the public schools of Waterbury has just been completed and shows that fve-sevenths of the pupils are Roman Catholics, so that after all it is nothing wonderful to hear that half of the teachers are of that faith. There are three Protestants and four Catholics on the board of education and not one of these could prepare list of the religions of the different teachers.

THE SEA GIRT TEAM CHOSEN.
THE FIFTEEN MEN TO ATTEND THE
INTERSTATE MATCHES.

Good Material Selected for the Com
peting Team-The Members of the
SharpshOters' Club Have been
Prncticfng for Weeks and VIII Try
and secure the HOnOrs at the Jer-
sey Tournament for Savannah.
The team committee OF the sharpshoot-
ers' Club met at the Guards ArmOry last
night and completed its work Of picking
out the best men in the sharpshooters'
Club for the team to compete in the Sea
Girt. n. J.. rife tournament beginning
Sept. 2
The committee, consisting Of Capt A.
Nee. Duncan. Capt. G. T. Cam, Capt. W,
n. Nichols and Nessrs. c. S. Richmond
and F. c. Wilson. have been patiently 60
ing over the scores made by the members
OF the club for the last week or so. and
devoting a great of time to the work OF
selecting the team. 1t required a good
deal of study. 1t sometimes happened
that man who had made a good record
at the range could not get of and so the
committee was hampered in this way 1t
put in a good deal of work. however. and
as Capt Duncan remarked. 1--WE have a
good team now, much stronger than the
one sent last year. That team had had no
practice on the skirmish line nor much at
the GOO yard range. but the new team is
well qualified on both these points. If
they don't bring some Of the honors back,
well, then will be greatly astonished and
disappointed
The team named is as follows:
Capt. w. N. Nichols, Capt. J. c. Pos
tel, Capt. George T. Cam. Quartermas-
ter Sergeant A. S. Eichberg, Sergt. r.
NJ. Screven, Privates W. B, Burpitt, Mer-
Ger, Fred Myers, Jr., +. c. Wilson, H.
r. Wilson, w. G. Austin, Thomas Hun
ter, ]. G.. Nelson, c. s. Richmond, and
]. T. Shuptrine. These men have made
remarkable good scores at the range,
and if they do as well at Sea Girt they
win bring home some of the prizes.
The interstate team match will be the
event of the occasion. The Hilton trophy
is the prize and is worth about $1,000.
The winners keep it, in the state head
quarters. till the next annual tourna-
ment, when 1t is again contested for.
The ranges are 200, 500 and 600 yards,
seven shots at each.
The interstate prize is a good one; the
ranges are 200 and 500 yards.
Inc interstate reglHental matcn IS an
other interesting event. and the boys
will do their best in this. Then there
will be individual matches, so that there
will not be lack of opportunity for the
Georgia boys to show their mettle.
They have raised most of the money
needed, yet as one of the committee sta
ted last night more will not come amiss.
II costs a good deal to send off team,
and the money must be raised by the

WENT NORTH ON CHARITY.
The Young Man with Fits Sent t.
New York by Friends.

The Young Man With Fits Sent to
New York by Friends.
Dan Evans, the young man who claim
ed to han from Lexington, KY. and who
has attracted considerable attention in
the city for the last several days by either
a habit or a misfortune of suddenly drop
ping down in public places with apparent
attacks of heart failure, left yesterday
on the City of Birmingham for New
York
Some kind-hearted people who interest
ed themselves in Evans, made up a purse
and secured him a half-rate ticket to
New York, the city subscribing s. to the
fund. There is some suspicion that Ev-
ans was not all he appeared to be, AMI
that perhaps his way of dropping around
was only his scheme for exciting sympa-
thy and working his way along. An item
in the Jacksonville Metropolis of a re-
cent date states that Evans made 1t con-
venient to have these fits on the streets
of Pensacola and Jacksonville, and init
mated that he was merely working an the
sympathies of charitably inclined peo-
pie.
Mayor Myers, to whom this suspicion
was mentioned, said that he thought 1t
was cheaper to get Evans out of town
than to attempt to prove him a fraud.
Evans claimed to have an uncle in New
York, who had promised him a position
on his arrival there

Venezuelan Vessels to Comply with
the Regulations.

Venezuelan Vessels to Comply with
the Regulations.
Health Offcer Drummer says that it will
be literally cold day before any of the
Red ID. line of steamers from Venezuela
discharge their passengers at Savannah
without going through the regulation eight
days quarantine.
LaGuayra, which is the Venezuelan port
of the Red D line, is one OF the yellow fever
ports Of South America, upon which the
quarantine authorities always keep a
watchful eye, and neither passengers nor
goods could be admitted from that port
without passing through quarantine with
out change in the regulations.
A Morning News reporter mentioned the
subject to DR.. Drummer yesterday, and re-
ceived this Information. DR.. Drummer said
that he had no wish to interfere with any
movement in the interest of Savannah or
the Atlanta exposition, and, in fact, would
not interfere. The regulations are on the
books and will be enforced by the quar-
antine officer without any Instructions
from the health officer.
Capt. Purse and Gen. Avery, who have
been interesting themselves in this mat
ter, appear to have overlooked the ques-
zion of quarantine. In view of the strict
regulations which have been enforced
here against all South American ports at
this season of the year. it is difficult to see
how the plan of having the Venezuelan
steamers stop at Savannah during the
period Of the Atlanta exposition can be
well carried out. 1t is well, anyway, to
bring the question up at once, and not
wait until the first ship comes into port
with her passengers.

w. C. PARTRIDGE NOMINATED.
THE ANTI-CITIZENS CLUB CANDI-
DATE FOR THE LEGISLATURE
NAMED.

A Mass Meeting 40 BE Called TO Ratify
the NominatiOn-A Meeting of Rep
resentatives From All of the Militia
Districts in the County Mt ArmOry
Hall Last Night-Mr. Hartridge Its
Unanimous ChOice-Mr. w. w. CHS
holm the Probable Candidate Of
the other side.
Walter c. Hartridge, Esq, was nOmi-
mated last night at a citizens meeting at
Armory hall as the anti-Citizens Club
candidate for the legislature to succeed
the late Joseph J. Doolan-
The meeting was composed Of repre-
sentatives Of every district in the county.
Hon Walter G. Charlton was called to
the chair, and stated the purpose Of the
meeting to be to place in nomination a
candidate for representative opposed 10
the Citizens Club faction. which elected
the members of the legislature at the
last general election.
The meeting was a business one, and it
was prepared to make a nomination at
once. Mr.. Hartridge was looked upon as
the candidate to make the race, and he
was put in nomination. The nomination
was seconded and went through with
rush.
Mr. Hartridge, who was present, was CALI
ed for. He replied. accepting the nomina-
ton, and announced that If elected he
would serve the interests of the county
TO the best of his ability. There are
many issues to come before the next
session Of the legislature affecting the
interests Of Chatham county, and it was
deemed necessary that a representative
be chosen to fill the vacancy in the Chat
ham delegation who will conserve those
interests.
The meeting was a harmonious one
throughout. 1t was the result of a call
to the representatives of the party who
are not in sympathy with the Citizens
Club wing.
The chairman was authorized to APP
point at once the various committees to
conduct a vigorous campaign, and to ar
range for mass meeting to endorse the
nomination. Mr.. Hartridge was the can
didate of the Tammany-D Club
party in the campaign a year ago, with
Messrs. Mcmillan and Gearon.
The nomination of Mr.. Hartridge opens
the campaign. Mr.. w. w. Chisholm is
generally regarded as the leading candi-
a good deal of talk Of Hon. +. G. duBig-
non, but it is considered doubtful if he
will run.
There is a growing feeling that what
constituted the Citizens Club and anti
Citizens Club elements in the city cam
palgn, and the legislative campaign pre-
ceding it, will be badly divided in this
fight, though no special lines along which
a division is liable TO take place have been
mentioned. Both sides have stated, how
ever. that they would in this race have a
large number of voters that formerly
voted against them. This, however, re-
mains to be seen, as the question has not
yet come up. except in a quiet way,
the nomination of Mr.. Hartridge being the
first gun.
Both sides are keeping an eye on the
registration. 1t Is understood that the
governor will call the election whenever
those most interested want it, and it is
hardly probable that that will be many
days off.

The Stafford in Collision with n Row

The steamer Gov. Stafford returning from
Warsaw last night with party of excur-
sionists from st. Stephens Episcopal
church, colored, collide with the piling of
one of the abutments of the ST. Augustine
creek draw bridge.
The tide was high and the current was
running strong through the draw. AS the
steamer struck the piling she careened.
The passengers rushed to the other side of
the decks, and through tn cabins, thinking
for moment that the steamer had col
hded with the bridge. After striking the
piling the vessel swung back and after a
moment passed on through the draw.
The only damage was the breaking of
several paddles in one Of the steamer
wheels
