tiOn on for Atlanta.
The third party of orphans TO visit
the exposition from Savannah left for
Atlanta last night at 10 o'clock. 1t was
the Female Orphan Asylum children, and
a brighter delegation will not visit the
fair. There were forty-three girls in the
party, and they were making things
merry chattering of the good time they
anticipated to-day.
The girls, are under the chaperonage
OF Miss Julia ward, Miss L. Ferguson,
Miss Fannie Haupt and Miss Lula Wand.
Mr.. Auvergne d'Antignac and Mr. g. W
Haupt have charge of the party.
The children reached the Central tietot
at about $40 and went Immediately to
their sleeper and to bed, the berths having
been made up in advance of their ar
rival. The train will arrive in Atlanta
children will be carried out at once TO
the exposition grounds. They will break
fast at the grounds before entering on
the day of sightseeing. As they will
have but one day at the fair, the ladies'
in charge Will not attempt to cover the
whole exposition, but will carry the party
through only the most interesting and
instructive exhibit, so that the visit may
be productive of profit as well as pleas
ure. They will make their headquarters
at the Savannah exhibit. Mr.. d. II.
is expected to meet the party 1T the
train and conduct it through the eX-
position. Inc party IS expected BACK by
tomorrow morning at 1870.
The party of orphans from ST. Mary's
Home, accompanied by the sisters and
Mr.. J. w. Golden and Mr.. p +. Gleason.
returned yesterday morning. They spent
a pleasant day at the fair, and had a
happy trip, There was nothing that
could possibly mar its pleasure. The day
was a beautiful one and the children
were shown every courtesy and atten-
ton that could have been accorded them.
Their train arrived in Atlanta on time.
Mr.. Blythewood was waiting at the depot
TO meet the party and accompany it to
the grounds. The car was detached from
the Central train and switched on the
tracks of the Southern railway, and was
quickly transferred from the city to the
exposition gates, and had a good break
fast at 8;45. Mr.. NJ. A. O'Byrne, one or
the trustees of the home, met the party at
the grounds and remained with il through
out the day. Mrs. James O'Neill, Mrs.
O,Brien and Mrs. Flynn, three ladies Of
Atlanta, accompanied the children, and
made every effort to make their enjoy
ment of the day as perfect as possible.
They carried them to all the most inter
estfng exhibits and explained everything
that they saw. The children fell very
much in love with the Atlanta ladies'
who interested themselves so much about
making their visit a pleasant and profit
able one. They were shown the greatest
attention everywhere they went. Most Of
the shows of the Midway gave them free
admission, but their time being limited
they could only take in few of the best
attractions. Mr.. Martin Amorous, n for
mer Savannahian, took great interest in
making the day happy one for the chill
dren. He would have carried them to all
the shows If there had been time. The
children did not get any special rates into
the exposition. Mr. Golden did not ask any
reduction in the price of admission, but
paid the regular rates.
As the committee on the finances of the
excursion trips has sufficient money 1t is
supposed that all the parties that go up
hereafter will pay full admission.
