vote themselves to the pleasures OF
Tybee and other resorts. A limit of
three days will be allowed this year.
The excursionists will come from Geor-
gia and Alabama. 1t is expected that
there will be fully 1,500 of them. The
Seaboard will run three trains fer their
accommodation.
Mr.. Charles A. Dowell has been ap
pointed night baggage master at the
Union depot and is now on duty in

MAKES NEW ENEMIES.
William Waldorf Aston, the EXpatri-
ated Millionaire, Ofends Brit
ish SpOrtsmen.

William Waldorf Astor is in the
midst of another fight that will undo
whatever popularity he gained by his
recent gift of $15O,0OO for the improve
ment of rifle shooting. When the ex-
patriated American millionaire bought
Cleveden, the duke of Westminster's
magnificent mansion on the Thames,
he satisfied himself that all the fish
that happened to stray into his part
of the river were his exclusive prop
erty. So he put up notices to tres
passers all along the banks. The va
rious angling associations which have
for years enjoyed the fishing in the
upper reaches of the Thames were up
in arms at once aud after a series of
skirmishes the question is coming into
court.
Strengthened by Mr.. Astor's exam
pie, his neighbor, Sir Peter Palmer, a
retired lieutenant colonel, has brought
the matter to an issue by obtaining an
injunction against professional an
gler, who has used this part of the
river undisturbed for 80 years. Pisca-
torlal associations all over the coun-
try have joined to defend the angler
and the case will be appealed, if neces-
sary, until it reaches the house of
lords. The associations contend that
as they feed the river with spawn at
their expense they have just as much
right to the fish as Mr.. Aston and his
neighbor.
In the meantime anglers are having
fun with the notice boards to tres
passers. Mr.. Astor's keeper rose one
morning to find all of his signs re-
placed by the following:
