Skeeiug is making a decided hit wit

Skeeing is making a decided hit with
the former snow-shOe enthusiasts in
Augusta, and there are quite number
of young people about town who are
becoming adopts in the art. 1t appears
that the sport is more difficult to ac-
complSh than the regulation snow
shoeing but the pleasure of the ex-
citement and semi-danger in the use of
the long Norwegian implements COM
pensates for the occasional discomfort
Of capsiZing in the snow. Skees are
far more speedy than snow-shoes. and
it is reported that a skee club will be

that rather freakish Bachelors
Club had been founded by half
dozen well-known Augusta gentlemen.
Yesterday the facts of the case leaked
out, but the Journal will suppress the
names Of the members Of the club, as
il is quite possible that they will soon
see the evil of their ways, and then the
club Will cease to exist. 1t appears
the young men formed the club under
most solemn auspices and bound each
one to the other with a most solemn
and blood-curdling pledge. The objects
of the band thus established are not
that not one of the six shall walk up
on the street for Il distance with any
young lady. not blood relation. under
penalty of a fine of a box of good
cigars. The member who is caught in
any public place of amusement with
a young lady shall he fined $40 III
money which shall be divided among
the other members, and the member
who commits the henious crime of call
ing upon young woman. shall be
fined SIS, to be divided as the other

during the prescribed time. which is

hanging and drowning have been sug-
gested. but according to the secretary
of this unique body, none of these are
sufficiently severe. The writer saw
several of the young lady friends of the
