BACK TO ITALY.
Italians Leave Louisiana in Large Num-
beers for Home.

ItaIlans Leave LOulsIana IN Large NUM-
beers for Home.
NEW ORLEANS. Feb. 1.-Now that the
grinding season is over at the mills. the
Italians are leaving Louisiana in large
numbers and returning to their homes in
Sicily and Italy
Commissioner of immigration Mont
gomery says that the immigrant steamer
Montebello cleared yesterday with 429
Italians hol1eward bound. He attributes
the general exodus to the failure of the
planters to get their bounty and conse-
quent reduction of wages that followed
necessarily.
Some of the Italians could earn no
more than fifty cents per day, and these
are going back where they say they can
do better than this. The commissioner
also said that five hundred had left
Louisiana for home by way of New York.

TO PRESERVE CONFIDENCE.

Treasury Declares Intention of Issuing
Bonds Sufficient for That Purpose.
WASHINGTON. Feb Assistant Secre-
tary Curtis was at the treasury depart
ment today, but said he could add moth
ing to what was already known on the
subject. A bond issue is thought
likely very soon and negotiations pre-
liminary to one have been entered into,
but so far as known definite conclusion
has not yet been reached, except that the
administration is fully determined to
make whatever bond issues circumstan-
ces render necessary in order to preserve
confidence in the integrity of the national
finances.

Cararrh and Deafness.

In this season of colds and coughs at
tention to and protection of the throat
should not be forgotten By protection
is not meant bundling up the throat
with silk muf1ers, but protection of the
whole body, and if possible an exposure
and hardening of the neck to the cold.
The last is important not only on ac-
count of the throat itself, but because
of SO many cases of catarrh which affect
the ear and cause deafness. Indeed some
physicians say that the fact has been
demonstrated beyond a question that
aside from rupture of the ear drum
there is scarcely a symptom of defective
hearing which is not traceable to the
condition of the nose and throat; also
has it been said that the use of smelling
salts is one ofthe most prolific causes of
deafness, operating by weakening the
olfactory nerves and through them the
auditory system. All strong or pungent
odors should be avoided as far as pos
sible, especially those which act upon
the secretory processes. Any signs Of
chronic colds, catarrhs or lasting sore
throat should never be allowed to run
On without treatment for fear of the
complicating deafness. Popular Health

WASHINGTON. Feb. Maxwell, solic-
itor general of the United States, has
rendered his resignation to the presi-

known the relations between Attorney

them paid during the thirty years since

Football Hair In Demand.

The latest fad which the feminine sex
is known to be cultivating is that of
keeping what is termed chair book. :"
This interesting article is supposed to
contain lock of hair of each football
player who has in any degree become
famous on the gridiron. The first young
lady who is known to have commenced
such a collection is Miss Helene Willis
of San Jose, Cal. A few days ago Albert
Hall, captain of the football team of
Butler university, received letter from
Miss Willis asking for lock of hair
from each of the members of his team,
to be accompanied by their autographs,
and explaining the unusual request by
stating that she has large scrapbook
in which are placed the locks of hair
and autographs of most of the prominent
players of the past season. The request
was too late, however, as the entire
team at Butler have been shorn of their
shaggy locks by order of Lieutenant De-
frees, the military instructor at Butler,
for the flowing locks are not considered
to be of strictly military appearance.

AMUSEM ENTS.
"A Trip to Chinatown"

Such an outrageously funny and reck-
less comedy as "A Trip to Chinatown"
would be q miserable farce in the hands Of
any company but first-class one. The
frst-class company appeared at the Opera
house last evening. The parts were all
well taken, some better than others, but
not one was anything like poor.
1t is not easy to carry on play that Is
really funny throughout, without literally
firing on audience and leaving forced
last scene. But in "A Trip to China
town there is no lag from first to last.
The play is full of motion-various kinds
of II otion.
The part of the charming Widow
Guyer' is filled to perfect satisfaction by
Miss Laura Bigger.
AS "Flirt" the chic little French maid,
Miss Rosalie left little to be desired She
acts well and dances even better. But ac
ting and dancing cannot be compared.
Miss Barbe and Miss Burgess were both
lively and graceful, and showed good APP
probation of their parts. in a way which
did much to add to the ensemble. Willie
Grow was well taken by Miss Bryton.
Burt HaverIy, as Welland Strong, was
truly funny and a comedian of the highest
order.
After the audience once caught his
vein Of humor, his very presence was sug-
gsstive, and his dry manner, wholly free
from consciousness, had in it the genuine
essence of comedy.
The other men characters were excel
lently carried out, and deserve especial
credit for their snap, and at the same time
avoidance of apy,boisterousness. Ben Gay,
the rich cold boy and unlucky sport,
was taken to perfection by Mr.. Chamber
lain. and deserved the noisy applause
given him.
Taken as a whole, "A Trip to China
town was the best comedy and the best
acted of any comedy which has been seen
in Augusta for many months.
The scenery was frst-class; the specl
alties introduced, the whistling, singing
and dancing were of the very highest order
and combined to amuse and evoke from
the audience applause which was hearty
md significant Of exceptionally good
work.
The audience was large anu very "p-
preciatlve.
