SUCCESSFUL LAWN PARTY
Held BY UniversaIist Ladies at Home Of Dr.. J.
F. Hill on State Street.

A more successful and pleasant oc-
casion could not be imagined than the
lawn party given by the ladies Of the
universities. church. at the Spacious
State street, Thursday evening.
AS one approached the place, the
scene was like one from fairy land.
The beautiful grounds were lighted
with long rows of Japanese lanterns
that shed a mellow light, making thu
velvety lawn with the many trees and
shruLbery look SO inviting, that it was
worth the price of admission, just to
have the privilege of wandering about
in the place. The evening was all tina.
could be wished for. not too warm,
and with a moon that added to the
beauty of the scene.
The gathering was truly represent
tativc one with about 200 of Augusta S
leading people regardless of church, all
denominations being represented. and
all seemed to enjoy themselves i'm
menscly.
The entertainment, which was under
the direction of Mrs. G.. II. Brickett,
was excellent, and consisted of read
ings by Mr.. Bond and Miss Knowltol
and songs by Miss Clark of Jackson
willie, ILL.,. who is stopping in the city,
the guest Of her aunt, Mrs. G.. II. Mar
tin. Al: We're fine, and especially the
singing of Miss Clark, as she has a
voice of rare sweetness; and has de-
voted much time to its cultivation.
Beside the programme mentioned,
music. consisting of a piano and violin.
was furnished for those who wished t.
indulge in the little dance that was
enjoyed upon the lawn. Ice cream
and cake We're served.
To DR.. and Mrs. Hill the society feels
under great obligations for the use Of
their beautiful grounds.

Of condition. The ring-horses in the
horse tent We're watched and admired
by a throng of bystanders. The crowd
on the grounds kept steadily increasing
until by the middle of the forenoon II
numbered nearly thousand people.
The ubiquitous vendor of hot buttered
popcorn was early ON the ground and
did a prosperous business. While stands
devoted to the sale of popcorn. pink
lemonade and soft beers sprang up
here and there like mushrooms.
Crowds lined the streets when the
parade passed. shortly after noon. and
the oniookers We're not disappointed.
for ii was credtable pageant with all
the features that belong TO a well regu-
lated circus parade. A large crowd at

Arizona and the whole country will

Arizona and the whole country will
do we'll to push the purpose of supply
ing the United States with sugar pro-
duced at home, rather than sending
abroad for it as is done at present, says
the Phoenix Herald. A glance at the
following figures will show the extent
to which we are annually indebted to
foreign countries for this staple article
of diet. During 1896 it required the
total amount of wheat and flour ex-
ported from this country to pay for the
sugar imported. During the past year
the total value of all the live and dress
ed beef, beef products and lard ex-
ported, was barely sufficient to Offset
that of the sugar imported. Our enor-
nous exports of cotton, which practi-
cally supply the world, are only about
twice in value our imports in sugar
Our vast exports of tobacco are equiv
alent to only one-third the value of our
sugar imports. Last year it took our
total exports of barley, oats, rye, fruits
and nuts, hops, vegetable oil, oleomar-
garine, butter and cheese, pork and
hams-all taken together, to pay for
our sugar importations.

outside points, is being formulated in

to the Interstate Commerce Commits.
sion in Washington in few days. AT.
fidavits of citizens and business men
have been secured to support the spec
ificatioDs enumerated in the complaint,
and those having the suit in charge are
confident that they have clear case.
The matter has been kept sub rosa
for obvious reasons, but it is stated
that the movement is being engineered
by the chamber of commerce, and one
of the best attorneys in Phoenix has
been retained to conduct the prosecu-
tion and prepare the papers.
Gross discrimination against Arizona
points on business originating outside
the territory is charged. 1t is stated
that rates to Arizona are materially
higher than on the same class of busi-
ness having origin or ending in Cali
fornia. The complaint asks that these
determinations shall be abolished by
reduction of rates to Arizona points,
or by raising on goods delivered in
California and having origin at COM
petitive points in the east.-Gazette.
