TO BEGIN A SECOND TERM.
Art Students League to Carry on the
Work Three Months More.

The Art Students League of Savannah
will start its second term of three months
tomorrow.
When the league began It's work in the
fall the ladies had in mind the idea Of
second term, should the first prove as Sue
cessful as they anticipated, and they have
been working hard to that end ever since.
They have finally decided 10 have a sec
ond term and to go right ahead with the
work. There are some, it is understood,
who have not been attending during the
preceding term, whose desire ii is to start
in with the. new term. II is desirable that
they should enter at once, so that the
classes may be well formed and the work
put in good shape at the beginning of the
term.
There have been about thirty-ffve stu
dents in regular attendanceron the art
school at the Telfar Academy during the
term which has just closed, and every one
of them has given constant attention to
the work. The instructor, Mr. George
Bladen Fox speaks very highly Of the
progress made, and has been well pleased
with theeearnest attention that has been
given the work by the pupils. The second
term will begin, 1t Is said, under the same
favorable auspices and equally bright sue
cess Is predicted for it,

MIR. DU BIGNoN RETuRNs.
Believes Col. Gambler VIII BE Prac-
tfcnIIy UnoDposed

Hon. Fleming G. duBignon returned to
the city yesterday morning from Atlanta.
where he has been on business for the last
two or three days since his return from
Washington. ID. c.
Mr.. duBignon has already stated his POI
sition with regard to his decision not to en-
ter the gubernatorial race, and he says he
believes that Hon. Allen ID. Gambler will re-
ceive the nomination practically unoppos-
ed. Mr.. duBEnon does not think that
Thomas e. Watson will become the pop
ulist candidate for Governor. 1t has been
announced that he would probably come
out. but it does not seem that there is any
issue for him 70 make the race upon.
Mr.. duBignon Is Of the opinion that for
several years 10 come it will be practically
out of the question for Democrats in the
South and West to enter the arena other
wise than squarely upon the Chicago plat
form. Watson ran upon that platform in
the Presidential campaign. and therefore
he would hardly have an issue upon which
to oppose Col. Gambler.

Not the Rnnd,s FauIt.

The failure Of the promenade concert at
the Guards hall night before last was on
account of a misunderstanding between
the Regimental Band and some Of the la
dies in charge Of the entertainment. The
band did not appear and the concert was
postponed. 1t is not the foult, however, of
Manager Roehm. who with all the mem
bers of the band was willing and ready
to play. The committee of ladies' which
was to have notified the band II its
services were needed failed to do so, and
it did not put in an appearance. The
ladies' appreciate the kindness OF the band
in playing for the entertainment the first
night, and regret that the misunderstand-
ing prevented its appearance the second
night.

TURpENTINE's DULL SEASON.
Box Cutting Will Wind Up in About
Two Weeks.


This is the dullest season of the year in
the spirits turpentine business. The daily
receipts have been light during the past
few weeks, but the price, which was the
highest Of the year held firm until yes
terday.
The decline of y cent was no great sur
prise to the factors, although they had
hoped that the price would hold up, at
least until the new crop begins to come
in.
There are $3.50 casks OF spirits turpen-
tine in stock. the most of il in the hands
of one exporting firm. The demand from
abroad ana in the United States has been
exceedingly light during the last month
and If il had not been for the exporting
.cornDanv. which holds the stock keeping
nm the nrice for some time at 3212 cents, IL
is thought that the value would be much
lower than the present quotation.
The weather has been remarkably open
during the box cutting season, ana cutting
has continued all through the winter. IL
viii cease on Feb. IS. the date PRESCRIBED

GALATIANS BEAT THE GUARDS.
Had a WaIk-Over in the Indoor
Game Is to S.


The Chatham Artillery indoor ball team
had the easiest kind of time with the
Guards at the Guards Hail last night. 1t
was a walkover for the Artillery boys.
They won on a score of Is to 8.
AS the score indicates the game was
loosely played, but this did not make it
undressing, and the crowd which saw
the game enjoyed it.
Coleman was in the box for the Guards
and he was numerically hammered all
over the hall. The Artillerymen seemed to
find no trouble in hitting the ball, and
when they got on base as a usual thing
they succeeded in scoring The Guards
went to pieces early in the game and the
whole team seemed to be utterly democrat
lied.
They also showed a lack of watchful-
ness. Fleming was on third at one time
and, not knowing the catcher had the ball,
tried to score and was put out. Had there
been a coacher at third base this would
not have happened
The Guards have the making Of a fire
team and if their players practiced and
studied the game more there is no doubt
that they would make a good showing.
The Chathams entered the game with
confidence and they played an aggressive
game all through. They scored four runs
in the first inning, and did not fail to
score in every inning following with the
exception of the eighth. Barbour pitched
a good game for the Chathams, allowing
only seven hits and striking out nine men,
Englerth, the Artillerymen's new catcher
caught good game. The Chathams ran
bases well and fielded an excellent game

which amounted TO much, however

fact everything was found in satisfactory
