Foye & EcISstein's Spring Opening.

FOye ~ Ecksfe1ns spring OpenAhEs
In writing of the general advent of
spring, the coming of a new season,
the changing from winters sombre
coverings to those of gladstone spring
time. descriptions would be of little in
terest to woma nkind, did you not say
things of what's to be worn in the way
of hats for every purpose. 'Twould i'll
become the reporters to effort an at
tempt toward portraying the beautiful
display and artistic exposition pre-
Sented by this most excellent establish
ment. There was every style OF hats,
there was every conceit that the for
eign and American designer and maker
could offer for your explanations and
approvals. Hats with flowers and
feathers and pretty fixings, of all hues,
tints, and colors, making a most ex-
quisite offering for the acceptance and
choosing by fair women.
Mrs. Golden, than whom there is no
more popular nor more capable buyer,
seller, and maker of fine millinery,
showed us around and among her
achievements, and right nobly, too, she
had done her work. Some hats were
from Berlin and Vienna, others came
from Paris and London, some from our
own metropolis, and none were pref
tier nor received more plaudits from
the crowds of pleased lockers and pur-
chaserS than the exquisite products of
her own work rooms. Mrs. Golden has
no need of Introductory words to hat
wearers of our city and adjacent towns,
for alone she has stood and occupied
the front position in the millinery world
for number of years, her hat par.
Tors and her opening days ranking
among the interesting places and
events at the Introductory of each sea-
son.
Miss Ecie Reynolds, who is known to
every lady in Savannah, is Mrs. Gold
ems efficient assistant and certainly
the house of Foye & Eckstein should
congratulate itself upon securing the
services of this charming little woman.
There were displays of silks, satins,
robes, and manteax; there were mag
nitlcent suits, skirts, and waists from
every mart of the fashionable world;
there were fine laces and linens, and a
showing of spring shoes which are
worthy the looking of every woman
who likes style and smartness in foot
wear.
The fourth and fifth floors were given
to Mr.. Hankinson, and his magnificent
showing of carpets of the prettiest col
ors and patterns, fine furniture from
the best of factories, and a display
of mattings, rugs and draperies just
fresh from the Orient: indeed, every
floor of their big building was full of
springs rarest and best merchandise.
There were handsome women and OBJ
liging men to tell you about their
wares. and, as the reporter took his
leave of these bright scenes, he con-
cluded that Messrs. Foye & Eckstein
were on the right path of a successful
mercantile career .-ad.

FIELD DAY FOR THE STATE.
Every Defendant Pleaded or Was
Found Guilty in Superior Court.

Every Defendant Pleaded or Was
Found Guilty in Superior Court.
Yesterday was a field day for the
state in the trial of criminal cases in
the Superior Court. Six defendants
faced Judge Barrow, one of them on
three indictments, and in every case
there was either a plea or verdict
of guilty.
Paris Jones was sent to the peni-
tertiary for six years. He pleaded
guilty to three indictments, all
charging him with obtaining goods
under false pretenses. He had forged
the signature of Collins, Grayson &
Co. to an order for goods addressed to
NJ. Ferst's Sons & Co., and the sigma
ture of Brennan & Co. to two orders
on A. B. Hull & CO. The aggregate
value of the goods he had obtained
by means of these forged orders
amounted to $S1. Judge Barrow SEN
fenced him to serve two years in the
penitentiary on each charge.
The other defendants were charged
with burglary or larceny. They were
all given misdemeanor sentences,
ranging from three months to a year
on the chaingang of the county.

GOLF CLUBS TO ORGANIZE.
Meeting for This Purpose to BE
Held in Chattanooga March 10.

Held i'm Chattanooga March 10.
A meeting of representatives from all
the leading golf clubs of the South will
be held at Chattanooga. March 49, for
the purpose of organizing a Southern
Golf Association.
Several years ago an organization of
this kind was formed but at time
when the game was in it's infancy in
the South, consequently the member
ship was limited to a few enthusiastic
clubs. To-day there are at least fifty
first-class clubs south of Mason and
DiXon's line. and it is believed that an
organization formed now will prove a
big success.
The objects of the association will be-
like similar associations in the East
and West, for the promotion of inter-
est in the game and for the protection
of the mutual interests of its members.
Amateur, open and womens champion
ship tournaments will be held annually.
A sufficient number of the Southern
clubs have already expressed their APP
prevail of such an Organization to in
sure its success.

RICE LANDS OVERFLOW.
This Means a Delay in Planting the
Early Crop.

Many of the rice planters along the
Savannah river will be delayed sew
eral weeks this season in their plant
ing because of the foods. The high
water that created so much consterna-
ton at Augusta has made its appear
ance in the lower river, flooding the
rice lands and setting back the plant
ers in their work.
Some of the rice lands were not over
flown, and on these the work will go
right along. The ground is all ready
for planting, much of it having been
narrowed. That which was covered
by water will have to be narrowed
anew. when the waters subside, and
the planters will wait until the ground
has dried thoroughly.
Some COMPENSATION for the delay in
planting the early crop is found in the
opinion that the water helps the land.
1t brings sediment with it, and quite
considerable deposit of fertilizer is
made,

Another letter from Mr.. D. B. Les
clerk of Council. Mr.. Lester reiter-
ated his request for a franchise for
the construction and operation of a
street railway system. His last letter
read before Council was received as
information, and it may be that no
more encouraging a fate is in store
for the most recent one, which will be
presented at the next meeting of
Council. Mr.. Lester wants a fran
chise in return for the advantage the
city, he says, would derive from the
establishment of his system, but
Council wants him to pay for it.

PEACHES NOT DAMAGED.

Mai. RyaIs Says Prospects for Big
Crop Are Encouraging.
Maj. G. M. Ryals returned last night
from a trip to his peach orchards in
Worth county with encouraging reports
as to the chances for a big crop Of
peaches this season. Mai. Ryals said
the peaches had not been at all in
jured by the recent cold snap.
While it is yet rather early to make
prophesies with any certainty of their
being verified by results, Maj. Ryals
says he believes that the crop of Geor-
gia peaches will be as large and as
fine this year as it has ever been. This
favorable prospect may be marred, Of
course, by adverse weather conditions
between now and the time of the ma
turity of the fruit.

Albany too brief.

MAYOR WILL PRESIDE.
VIII Pass Judgment of Negro Cab
mans Guilt.


mans Guilt.
Mayor Myers will hear the case
against the negro cabman Priester in
Police Court this morning. This is the
case in which Attorney George w.
Owens objected to Recorder Myrick
presiding because he is counsel for the
Plant System, and an officer employed
by that corporation made the arrest
IT A.iIl De announced before the case
is taken up that because the Mayor
will preside, the precedent is not estab-
lished that the Recorder is disquali-
fed when an arrest is made by Plant
System patrolman. The Mayor will
not sit in all such cases, and it will
be so announced when the charge
against Mr.. Owens client is taken up.
In the event that the guilt of the de-
PENDANT is established it is probable
that the fine will be larger than is
customary. because of the trouble to
which the officers have been put. The
negro was arrested for blocking with
his cab the passage way to the Plant
System depot.

DESERTED IN A YEAR.
Richard w. Founder Given Verdict
of Divorce Against His Wife.

A first verdict of total divorce, in
favor of Richard w. Founder against
Bessie Founder, was granted by a
jury in the Superior Court yesterday
The plaintiff made sensational
charges against his wife.
He alleged in his petition and testi-
fed before the court that he was de-
serted by his wife less than a year
after their marriage, which took
place on Sept. l, 1900. In August OF
the following year his wife had left
him and taken up her abode in a dis
orderly house, associating with i'm
proper characters and leading an idle
vicious and dissoMte life.
On this showing the first verdict
was granted. A second verdict. to be
followed as a matter of course by a
decree of divorce, will probably be
granted at the next term of the court

utterances go, and he is likely to be
well advised as to most OF his official
acts. He will naturally have TO dis,

years hence, no matter how well he
may bear himself,
