Easter aboard a man-of-war IS one Of
the most curious anomalies that could pre-
sent itself. That a vessel built for war
should observe this, the greatest of all
days of peace. calls up a picture of pray
ers upon a battlefield, a smile OF oil upon
the troubled waters, a representation Of
the lion and the lamb in close converse,
most delightful to the mind.
To-day you will see, If you visit the navy
yards, great preparations. There is a
strict routine to be gone through with,
but you viii notice that the tars are slick
ed up a little cleaner than usual, and as
soon as possible they will slip away for
the "fulldress" of blue, with fat hats,
that is to be worn Tor the morning ser
vice.
The Easter morning service aboard
every cruiser is that Of every Sunday the
regular Sunday prayer, with songs. To-
day it is held between decks while the sail
ors stand in double ranks The chaplain
conducts the service. There is on every
warship a quartette, which chants all the
psalms, sings sacred oratorio, and war
bles every hymn tune from the Moody and

Sankey back to the Watts hymnal. These
quartettes, has very fine voices, and if you
are invited to Easter service aboard the
Iowa or Indiana to-day you had best ac-
cept, for you will hear something fine.
After service come a multitude of duties.
and it is not not until afternoon, after a
very nice dinner. that the tars have time
for Easter fun. 10 many OF them Easter
Is that queer Sunday" that comes every
spring, when a man is expected to have
a good time and enjoy himself at the sport
he likes best.
If two ocean steamships are side by
side. within a mile, say, of each other,
then comes the finest sport a sailor
knows, a boat race. At 2 o'clock the
launches are lowered. Each warship has
its own crew, and the little vessels are
sent down the bay side by side between
the warships. Their course is over a quar-
ter of a mile and return. This is easily
watched by the boys on the ship, and to
the end the contesting crews can hear
the shouts of their brother sailors.
Naval regulations are so strict that Il
Is not always that the victorious crew
can be feted by the losing one. But the
crews, when they return, are received by
their own comrades, and a merry time
follows. A strict account of the race is
kept, and If the Minnesota beats the Ohio
or the New York wins over the Connecti-
cut, all the cruisers will know II within
few days, and the champion crew will
be challenged as soon as opportunity oc-
ours.
Though the tars are always represent
ed playing foot ball ana outdoor games
the fact is there is very little time for
anything of the kind. Uncle Sam IS more
particular with his sailor boys than with
any other department Of his service. He
likes TO have them singing and dancing
but the tar who goes through the ship s
routine is too tired at night and In his off
hours 70 do much besides play checkers
or lie down and rest.
The great event OF holidays and on most
Of the ocean cruisers to-day is the pie
eating contest. This takes place after the
boat race. Three days before there Is a
notice posted Of the coming pie-eating
contest, and all are invited to enter. Any
sailor who has been ple-eating contestant
once Is wary about entering again, unless
he Is pretty sure of his digestion; and
so IL Is not very often that more than
twelve men volunteer.
Their task Is simple, yet difficult. on
Easter Sunday afternoon they assemble
upon deck and seat themselves In "A semi

The navy officers do not encourage
pranks Of this kind openly. But they
quietly wink at them. They say it keeps

their own good times and makes them less

The board of education of Clark county
has made its report to the grand jury,
showing that during the past year seven
new school houses had been built with the
$1,000 appropriated by the county and a

calities in which the new buildings were
erected. The board of education asks the

for this year, and it will no doubt be pass

Lawrenceville Herald: B. F. Truslow,
travelling for a Chicago jewelry firm, was
arrested Saturday evening on suspicion
that he was a bank swindler wanted in
Virginia Truslow, in actions, fitted the
description Of the man wanted by the Vir-
ginia bank, but when Chief of Police Rob
inson gave him critical examination and
pulled his whiskers to see that they were
not false, he was satisfied he had the
wrong passenger, for the description, be
it known, didn't call for a whiskered man.
The drummer was accordingly released.
Truslow has employed Col T. NJ. Peoples
to institute a suit for $4,000 against Ed
Kendrlck, cashier of the bank here, at
whose instigation the arrest was made,
and Marshal Robinson, who made the ar
rest. The papers are prepared and Will be
1led with the clerk OF the CITY court III
time for the trial to be heard at the Au-
gust term.
The suit of Thomas J. Fielder against the
Corbin Banking Company of New York,
for 100000 commissions earned while in
the employ of that company prior to its
failure some months ago, will come up in
the United States court at Macon next
Thursday. Mr.. Fielder went to Atlanta
from Americas about ten years ago and
soon became one of the leading spirits in
financial circles. He became associated
with the Corbin Banking Company, one
of the biggest concerns in New York, and
when it went under last year he took
measures to protect himself by attaching
all the property of the company in the
state of Georgia. On his petition Judge
Emory Speer appointed a receiver for the
company's property in Georgia and also
granted an injunction restraining the hold
ers of mortgages outside of the state from
interfering with the property on which
Mr.. Fielder claimed an employees lien.
The mortgage holders resisted the appoint
ment of the receiver and the granting of
the injunction on the ground that Judge
Speer had no jurisdiction in the premises,
and on Thursday next that point will be
argued by some of the most prominent
lawyers in the country. Should the de-
Tense fail to show lack of jurisdiction, then
the case will come up for a hearing at the
rules day in May, and the suit will be
heard on its merits.

Another feature of Easter aboard a man
of-war is the good things to eat, for all
are allowed extra mess and from an am
pie purse some one is sent to land to get
such delicacies as the tar Graves. He
brings back fancy cheeses, canned goods,
drinkables Gf he can smuggie them In as
nice variation from the daily grog), and
all kinds of tropical fruits.
If Christmas comes but once a year, as
is annually claimed, Easter comes but
once a year also, for on no other day is
there one-half the jollifeauon or the time
allowed for the good play that there is in
the navy-yards to-day.

SAVANNAH'S QUARANTINE.
Continuation of an Article Published
in Morning News of April 4.

in Morning News of April 4.
Before resuming the thread Of my story.
I must again bring the attention Of your
readers to the ballast, which has now
to be discharged at the quarantine station
and is the cause of such long delays to the
ships that came to this port. We have al
ready learned through the report of Col.
f. C. Anderson, who was mayor Of Savan-
nah in 1876, that ballast had always been
brought to our wharves and that instead
of being a danger to public health it was
the chief means Of filling the low, wet
places along the river east and west Of
the city. and was therefore very valuable
from a sanitary point Of view.
At the time Surgeon Mcclellan made the
statement that the yellow fever germ had
been brought in this ballast, our people,
including the city authorities, were in
great dread of the return of the scourge
and ready to clutch at any straw, and all
though the surgeons theory had evidently
no foundation in fact. they were very will
ing to sacrifice the ballast in the endeayor
to save themselves.
To-day, no one would for a moment
credit the statement that because yellow
fever was raging in Havana, and a plant
was found growing in ballast taken from
a healthy locality in Cuba, that ballast
must contain the germs Of yellow fever. Yet
this is the only ground upon which Sur
geon McClelan's theory was built, as will
be seen by the following:
"A small quantity of the earth COM
posing this ballast taken from pile of the
same, about two feet below the surface,
was placed in a test tube, which was then
filed with distilled water and allowed to
stand twenty-four hours when microscop-
&c examination revealed a considerable
amount of organic matter. Sufficient time
has not elapsed TO allow this Investigation
