AWARDED BARS FOR ATTENDANCE
Members of the Hussars Who Made
the 100 Per Cent. Record.

The members of the Georgia Hussars
who made an average of 100 per cent. In
attendance upon all assemblies of the
troop during 1898 were presented with the
bars that bear witness to this good record
at the regular meeting last night. The
presentation was made by Lieut.. Henry
McAlpin, who was in command.
Corpl. w. F. Train bears the proud dis
tinction of having attended every assem-
bly, for four years. The bar he received
last night was the fourth that has come
to him. In the matter of percentage OF
attendance he leads all other mem bers.
Sergt. Edward Elliott received his sec
ond bar last night, as did also Corpl w.
H. Connerat, Jr. Trumpeter Gus Kayton
also was presented with his initial bar.
In addition to these four troopers there
was another member of the troop who
made the excellent record of 100 per cent.
This was Lieut. C. A. L. Cunningham,
who did not miss an assembly during the
year. AS the bars are given TO none but
the enlisted men of the troop, he could
not get one but his record entitled him to
one just as much as did that of the four
men TO whom the bars were awarded.
Every year at about this time these bars
are awarded. The honor for which they
stand is not trivial one, as it means that
a member sometimes gives up things he
would like to give hts attention to when
he is present at every meeting of the
troop. The bars serve to increase the
attendance upon the assemblies, and not
a few of the members start the year with
the intention of winning the trophy.

DISCHARGED AND REINsTATED.
Inspector Reynolds Lost His job
Despite the KrOuskOR Ordinance.

Despite the KrOuskOR Ordinance.
inspector of Materials Thomas Rey-
nolds, son of Justice Reynolds. who was a
candidate for alderman on the Myers tick
ct, was discharged by Superintendent Will
link Saturday afternoon and reinstated
by direction of Mayor Myers yesterday.
The discharge of Mr.. Reynolds was made
by Supt. Willink under orders from Alder
man Davis, chairman of streets and lanes.
The Krouskoff ordinance which prohibited
the discharge of an employee without for
NAL charges and a trial by council was
apparently forgotten by both the alderman
and the superintendent.
Mr.. Reynolds reported has discharge to
Mayor Myers soon after his induction into
office yesterday. The mayor at once sent
for the superintendent and directed the
reinstatement of the Inspector which was
done.
Mr.. Reynolds discharge was regarded
by Mayor Myers as being Illegal, to begin
with, as the Krouskoff ordinance was in
effect and no power to remove him from
office existed in either Alderman Davis or
Supt. Willink. The discharge, II is I'M
derstood, grew out of some words between
Inspector Reynolds and Alderman Davis,
Mr.. Davis claiming that Mr.. Reynolds
had insulted him.
There were a number of remarks passed
by some of the new aldermanic board over
the discharge, as showing that the Krous-
koff ordinance was intended to only pro-
tect those whom 1t was desired to keep
in office. Being a new ordinance the alder
man and the superintendent had evident
" forgotten its existence.

ELvIRA BROUGHT $40, Os5.


bach Wrecking Co.
The German bark Blvira was sold at
auction yesterday by John Mclaughlin &
Son, auctioneers, to Mr.. L. Luckenbach of
the Luckenbach Wrecking Company, of
New York, for $1OO85. The same party
bought the cargo Of chalk, consisting of
700 tons, at 40 cents a ton.
There was spirited bidding for the vessel.
Representatives from New York, Boston,
Staten Island, Philadelphia and Baltimore
were on hand and took a turn. Several
local parties also did some bidding. Start
ing at 1000, the bids steadily rose to the
price at which the sale closed.
The Luckenbach Company is well known
throughout the country. 1t owns a large
number of powerful seagoing tugs, and
wrecking plant together with several
barges. The Elvira will be towed to New
York to be converted into barge, A tug
has already been ordered to come on after
her The price paid for the vessel is much
higher than most of the bidders or others
thought would be realized on the sale.
The purchasers are experienced in their
business, however, and evidently knew that
they had a good thing.
The Efvira is a staunch vessel, having
a copper bottom and a strong hulk. She
was built at Boston in 1868, and was origi-
nally named the Sovereign of the Seas.

PASSED A RAISED BILL,
NJ. II. HenIy, of Berrien County, on
Trial for a Peculiar ORense,


Trial for a Peculiar ORense.
NJ. II. Henly of Berrien county, was
on trial IN the United States Court yes
terday on the charge of passing counter
felt money. The evidence had not been
concluded when the court adjourned for
the day.
Henly is charged with passing a 81 bill
which had been raised to 800. The rails
ed bill was introduced in evidence. IT,
was an exceedingly poor affair and the
most remarkable part OF the case is how
Henly succeeded in passing it on any one
as charged. AS the prosecution claims
Henly bought some land from r. r. Du
Bose for $3.50 and gave him the raised bill
and two notes for $50 each in payment
DuBose found that the bill was no good
and forced Henly to give him back the
title TO the land. The government got
wind Of the matter and made a case against
Henly. The defendant claims that a
woman in Valdosta took $112 from him
and gave him the 500 bill in change.

A few evenings SgI purity OF well
posted men, while seated around the
stove in the cifi OF the Teller house Civ
ing their opinlon OF aurferou, wall rock
the following Was given by one OF them
as his idea Of their origin, which is re.
produced in these columns verbatim:
Concerning The character OF the an
riferons wall rock ot gold veins, practical
research makes 1t seen true in most
cases for deep mines that the gold ~ the
walls is contained 10 the sulphurets; thai
it is OF smaller fneness than the vein
gold; that the suIphurers are pyrites and
that gold and snlphurets diminish rapidly
in quantity az the distance from the vein
increases. Snme'imes The wall rock
pyrite is almost barren. There appear to
be two sorts of wall rock pyrite, one the
result OF the action on terromagnesian
slIicares, Of the sul ulphide OF HYDROGEN or
OF the alkalies; this variety is sometimes
almost worthless. There are other i'm
pregnations OF pyrIte which seems 10 have
permea'ed from the vein issnres, in soIu
ton, as double sulohrdes of the alkalies
and iron. Solutions OF alkaline carbon
ates, partially charged with hydrogen sui
phide, will take up no'ahle qu4ntIies Of
many sulphurets, and also of gold Wall
rock appears to be much more permeable
by solutions Of some substances than by
those of Others Native gold, qu4rz and
all the sniphurets, excepting pyrites, are
Tor the most part retained IN the veins,
while carbonates seem to penetrate freely
into the wall rock. This indicates an os
matte separation of the metal bearing So
luton. That some und eco ~ posed rocks
granite and andsi:e contain free gold /,
clearly visible particles appears to be
qniie certain. There is also strong evr
dence for the strange hypothesis that
some sulPhrets in MASSIVE rocks are orig.
inal constituents. 1t is believed thai
some eruptive rocks associated with veins
are truly me'sllierons. Nevertheless,
the possibility presents itself that in such
