STAR COURSES SUCCESS.
Y. VI. c. A. Has the Only Lyceum At
fractions of the Season.


It has taken several years to create an
interest in lyceum platform work, and in
building up this ennobling sentiment
money has been lost by many of its pro-
moters throughout the South. 1t was not
many years ago when to announce lee
ture in many cities was to announce q
failure. Now the situation has changed,
and in Augusta, Charleston and other
places halls large enough cannot be Sc
cured to accommodate all those who wish
10 hear the lecturers. It was stated in
the Charleston papers ithe other day that
not one person who had bought tickets for
the course in that city last year had re-
fused to do so for this year, and in Augusta
II has been necessary to engage talent for
two successive nights so that all who wish
10 attend can secure seats to do SO.
Savannah at one time had three courses
The savannah Lyceum," THE Music Gull
ture Course" and THE Y. NJ. c. A. Star
Course" The first two, for lack of pa
tronage, have found it necessary to dis
band, so that the Young Mems Christian
Association now has the only course. BY
securing the best attractions possible and
by lard work, a large number of the best
people patrOnized It's entertainments. The
yceum course was composed entirely of
lectures, the Music Culture Course of Tnu-
steals, but the Y. NJ. c. A. has struck a
popular chord by giving variety to its at
fractions.
The course for this season will consist
ol the John Thomas Concert Company,
composed of John Thomas, humorist; Miss
Edna Marie Garilland, soprano; Miss An
me Webster Thomas, violon virtuoso, and
Snarles A. Ridgeway, pianist; the Fadettes
"onan's Orchestra of Boston, under the
direction of Mrs. Caroline Is. Nichols, in
Guiding twenty talented young ladies, and
MISS Lillian Chandler, violin virtuoso;
mss Ida Bentley, the great American story
Jyeher will likely give Les Miserables."

IN February Mr.. Chas. f. Underhill of
view York, the popular impersonator, will

MORE ROOM N THE VAULTS.
New Cases for Books of Record of
Clerk of the Superior Court.

New Cases for Books of Record of
Clerk of the Superior Court.
The new cases for the books of record
in the office of the clerk of the Superior
Court arrived by water yesterday, and
will be put in place in the office during
the day. The cases will afford accommo-
dation for the reception and convenient ar
rangement Of ninety volumes of the rec
ords, and come when they are much need
ed
AT least half OF the new space thus af-
forded will be taken up by the books al
ready in use in the office, that have been
already filed with the records of deeds
mortgages and other instruments that the
law requires shall be preserved in the Of
flee of the clerk of the Superior Court.
These books have not been able to find
room in the cases that are already In the
office. and for some time have been kept
on the tops of the other cases and on the
tables.
The arrival of the new cases and their
placing in position will be source of con-
venieuce and relief, not only to the at
taches of the office, but to the members
of the bar also, who have found 1t some
times rather disturbing to the train of
their legal thought to have TO stop con-
sideratlon of some knotty problem in the
law of real property and climb to the cell
ing for a book of record.

NO MORE BEAUFORT RECRUITS.
United States Office There Has Been
Closed Up.

The recruiting Office at Beaufort was
closed yesterday. Lieut.. Phisterer, in
charge of recruiting in this city and vi
cinity, went over to wind up It's affairs.
For the last few weeks the Office has been
doing practically nothing, and it was
deemed advisable to shut it up altogether,
allowing the corporal who had been in
charge to return to his duties with his
battery.
Lieut. Phisterer says recruiting has now
grown to he very slim, the filling up of all
the volunteer regiments lettering those
who might yet possibly cast their lot with
the army if they could get into one Of the
volunteer commands They do not like the
idea of going into the regulars, and the
result Is that there are but few applica-
tons received daily for enlistment
When the men were enlisting for the vol
unteer service they had the prospect of
getting out within two years. When II
comes to joining the regulars there is no
such prospect, and they must make up
their minds at the start that they are In
for it for the entire three years of the
term of enlistment for branches of the
regular service.
II is not known how much longer the
flag will fly in Savannah. The applications
for enlistment have grown very infrequent,
and 1t is rather the exception than the rule
for the surgeon to pass a man who APP
plies. The requirements for the service are
rigid and a man must be a good physical
specimen to admit Of his getting in. The
government wants a fighting machine that
will be able to stand wear and tear, and
none other than that sort need apply.

Interest among those who are to form the

Hall. The teams viii be the Guards Ca
diets and Y NJ a. A. s. These teams We're

can thus be secured.
a meeting of the Committee on Rules
of the board of directors of the league
was held last night at the Guards Club.
where important points in the game were
discussed and settled. The arrangement
OF the games was also under advisement.
and the order in which they will be Played
was fixed though no dates have yet been
agreed upon. Whenever 1t may he, the

wEDDINGs on THE INCREASE.

More Licenses Issued This Year
Than for Same Period of 1898.
The records of the clerk of the Court Of
Ordinary show that since the first of JAM
uary. of the present year, marriage IL
censes have been issued to GIL couples, who
expressed either q desire or Willingness to
enter the holy state of matrmony. This
is an increase of ten, over the record for
the same period of last year.
Sixty-six licenses have been issued dur
ing the past month, Of which twenty-three
have been to white, and forty-three to col
ored applicants. The ratio IL about as
usual and prevails not only in the issu-
ance of licenses, but also in the grant OF
divorces. In the latter particular the
proportion is higher, showing that three
divorces are granted to colored plaintiffs
to one to white Az some terms of the
Superior Court, the proportion is even
greater than this, but rarely or ever
lower.
