War News Of the Week.

The most important events that have
occurred this week. the reports of which
can BE- relied on. are the sinking of the
collier Merrimac at the mouth of Santi-
ago harbor aud the safety of Lieut..
Hobson and seven men who successfully
accomplished the daring feat.
Then followed a heavy bombardment
of the forts. and batteries on the south
east coast of Cuba, in the vicinity OF
Santiago. many of which We're silenced
or damaged without any serious loss to
the United States ships or folc es, They
were evidently preparing a way for the
landing of a large force under Gen.
Shaftner, and if a landing is effected
to- day, as is expected, we may look for
reports of heavy lighting
On the Sth 81, 900 troops left Tampa,
sixteen regiments of regulars and eleven
of volunteers. There are also a battal-
ion of enginees, five squadrons of cav
airy, four batteries of light artillery,
and two of heavy artillery.
The next most important event is the
capture Of Cavite province in the Philip
pines by Gen. Aguinaldo and the insur-
gents and the capitulation of Manila is
expected to follow, but it is said that
the Spaniards prefer to surf ender to Ad-
miral Dewey, who could protect them
against the excuses of the natives.
The Queen Mecedes, one of Cervera's
feet. is reported to have been sunk dur
ing the bombardment at Santiago, and
and this is probably true. as it is ad-
mitted in Spanish dispatches.

Fourth of July.

The concensus of opiuion on Jefferson
street is that there will be a universal
celebration of July 4th this year by the
business world of Macon. 1t has been
a long, long time since the whole town
has taken a day off, while other towns
on the road never fail to observe il an.
nually, except when it falls on Satur.
day and then they observe it on Mon
day. Already parties are made up and
the ground selected in some cool, Sc
cluded sylvan shade. for a rest from tn,
cares of busy life. Woe be to the hnny
tribe on that day and scores of squirrels
will be sacrificed to appease the appe-
titles of the pleasure seekers. There will
be plenty of roasting ears by that time
for a brunswick stew. In fact, all the
conditions are very favorable for a most
pleasurable celebration. Let no one
say nay but all be off for a day, and
"Of busy cares but little reckoning make"

LYCEUrl.

The entertainment given under the
auspices of the United Daughters of the
Confederacy, Walter Barker Chapter,
at the Lyceum on the evening of June
Sd, was one of the most accepta-
BILE events of the season and every n
present went away with words of praise
and commentator. The success of
this entertainment was due to excep
tional talent, which is possessed by each
and every one who participated in the
program of the evening. Miss Edna
Bush presided with grace and ease as
pianist and rendered each number with
peculiar ingenuity only possessed by
those of talent and capacity. Her
Confederate Airs in medley received
rounds of continued applause. Miss
Edna fully sustained her reputation as
a pianist and Macon feels proud of her.
Mr.. John Mullen, one of Macon's old
favorites, now of Columbus, appeared
in song.and gesticnlation to the delight
of all present. The Wreck of the
Maine. " as sung by him. was cheered
to encore, His popular Coon Songs
proved him a genius in the burnt
CORY role.
The beautiful and pathetic play,
"Drifted Apart" with Miss Marie
Curtis and Mr.. Frank Lyman as sole
participants 10 the rendition, was played
with a smoothness which at once con-
yinced all present that they were both
familiar with stage affairs. All will
long remember the beautiful sentiment
Of this little play, which brought forth
feelings of both merl iment and sadness,
even to tears.
Mrs, Bowen Of Brooksville gave a vo-
cal solo Because I Love You. - which
was full of music. She possesses a cul.
tured voice of rare sweetness. The en-
t%srtainmeut concluded with a dramatic
contrast in two acts entitled Sweet
hearts. -
Mr.. Frank Lyman, Mr.. W. w. Topr
and Miss Marie Curtis represented thu
characters in this play and truly die
they form a tripod of greatness as tt
talent and genius. Mr.. Topp as Will
COX, a gardner. was simply perfect
Miss Marie Curtis and Mr.. Lyman a.
Jennie Northcote, and Harry Spread
brow exhibited talent of the highest or
der. This entertainment was in all
superlative success. and the cultured au'
dience who witnessed the same speak il
loudest praise of merit well deserved
The Daughters of the Confederacy, whit
succeeded in the laudable undertaking
deserve much credit and many thanks,
for such treats seldom come our way.

mo Al courage to differ with his fellow
men, No man was further from being
a mere reflex of public opinion. He
was loyal to his principles. No misfor-
time made him regret his sacrifices for
the lost cause, or question the righteous
ness of the principlesf for which he fought
and suffered. As Representatives of these
great principles his loyalty to Davis and
Lee was immovaI lie. No man could
safely attack them in his presence. His

He was essentially patriotic. In his last
DAYS he was full of interest in Cuban III
teryenti n and wanted IL country to
act the noble part of freeing Cuba from
Spanish oppression Judge Price wa
full of sympathy for all human suffer

of the weak against the strong.
He was a member of the Methodist

might fly away and be at rest. In
