Savannah, Ga, March 1S.-The races under the management of the Savannah Automobile club and under the auspices of the American Automobile association began today with the 1S0-nile race for runabouts with standard stock chassis, equipped with racing bodies and limited to a maximum piston displacement of 375 cubic inches. The trophy was the southern runabout cup. Herbert Lytle drove the car that won. The races were all that could have been wished in point of weather, the crowds in attendance, and the order maintained by the police or military. Savannah society attended in full strength
 Of the six cars entered for the first race but three started. They were cars driven by Lytle J. B. Lorimer and L. J. zengle. The first to get away. zengle crossed the tape at 10 o'clock, and the others at brief intervals thereafter. Zen gle made but one of ten 1S-mile laps, his engine dying on the second. But that lap was the fastest of the race, being made in IS minutes, 54 seconds.
 It was soon apparent that Lytle would win, Lorimer's car developing trouble al- most from the start. 1t made but one last lap, :2O:02, which was faster than any one Lytle made. The latter was con- sistent, however. and when he finished fin hours 36 minutes and fl sec onds. I4orimer had made but nine laps.

LETTERS TO THE -.DITOR.
Letter From Seabreeze.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 The season at Seabreeze has been at its best during the last two weeks Last week was given up to the International Automobile races, but this week is quiet CT. Many tourists from Palm Beach, Miami and other resorts further south, are stopping here to avoid the heat. The boats on the Halifax and Indian rivers are carrying large parties every day up the Tomoka river, down to the inlet and New Smyrna. or to the orange groves. We visited one of the largest orange groves in this section last week. They claim to have 165,0O0 trees. There never was such a waste. The orange and grape fruit trees were laden with fruit and the ground under the trees were cov- cred with it, but we were told not to touch it. In the packing rooms oranges could be bought for 35 cents a dozen, but the drops, as they called the fruit that falls, went at 15 cents dozen.
 Seabreeze is the coming town of Florida, It is on the Peninsula on the east the Halifax river on the west. The beach Is one of the finest In the world The bathing is excellent even in Feb ruary. The Halifax river affords fine sport for fishermen. The river Is over a half mile wide and fish, oysters, shrimp and crabs are abundant.
 The hotels here have not felt the panic Everything has been crowded. The town is adding miles of shell roads, and many I,a a,1c aAaI. l.. before the next season begins. The pen insula is 20 feet higher than the main land, and the breezes from the Atlantic and the Halifax temper the climate so that it is ten degrees warmer in winter and very much cooler in summer than is Daytona, which Is just across the river from Seabreeze Oranges, grape fruit, guavas, kumquats, bananas and other tropical plants thrive here with less dan ger from frost than the mainland. We are all so enthusiastic over the beau tiful town that quite a number of us invested in a lot apiece yesterday, so We can have home here in winter for our old age. The climate is never too cold in winter or too hot in summer as are points lower down. There have been many visitors here from Knoxville Nash ville and other southern cities and Bir- mingham has been well represented The southern people are all planning to get home before April 1, but it Is hard to leave the ocean just when the bathing is at its best. Many northern people remain here until quite late in the spring.

TRIBUTE PAID TO
 REVOLU1IONISTS

Berlin, March 1S.-The people of the eastside of Berlin paid silent tribute to- day to the memory of the revolutionists who were killed in the street fighting in this city in 1S4S. An imposing crowd of sympathizers gathered at the graves of the dead men in Friederichshain park which is now the center of the eastside district and heaped them high with flow CTS and wreaths The police had taken ample precautions to prevent any out break. but their services were not called for; there was no disorder. Many of the wreaths bore mottos. These were in- spected closely by a lieutenant of police. who cut off with enormous pair of shears any sentiments that he regarded as reasonable.
 Red ribbons predominated the wreaths and showed through the thick layer of snow which was falling heavily. Nearly every person in the procession wore something.
 Thirty-six mass meetings under the auspices of the socialists were held in Berlin and it's surburbs thsi afternoon and all passed off in the most orderly manner. The halls were filled to their utmost capacity.

Bynum Millinery Go.

The opening at the Bynum Millinery company was among the smartest of the day. The pretty shop on Third avenue was crowded with many shop pers and exclamations were heard on all sides of the beauty of the display, the chic look of the hats.
 In the shop windows the arrange ment was most artistic. All the au- thoritative styles were seen. The new shades, the fashionable greens, the blues, the new cerisse, the several ultra shades seen on many of the new hats gave great style to the millinery.
 For street wear or for the dressy occasion there were hats to suit for spring and summer wear. The broad brimmed sailor, the ultra styles of the season, the smaller hats, everything authoritative and carefully selected from importers, made the opening dis tinctive in style.
 The showing today will be just as interesting.

Loveman. Joseph e Loeb.

At the magnificent store of Love man, Joseph & Loeb the metropolitan character of the opening was of course very noticeable. They truly opened the gates of the spring fashion world and showed the masterpieces of the ar lists and ateiers of foreign art cen ters.
 The opening, was the most brilliant in many seasons. Every season finds departments enlarged and display ex- ceiling that seen in any southern city, in fact, admitted by all who are more or less familiar with the large shop arrangement as distinguished In style as any of the especial exhibitions ar- ranged by New York importers.
 The dress goods department, the mil linery department and the costume de- partment all represented the best of fashion authorities of the world, the hall mark of Paris, London, New York, the most artistic and beautiful from the foreign centers, the richest and most auth oritative of the American manufacturer or designer.
 The firm doing an immense business throughout the southern states has long been the recognized authority In the section. It has done as much to advertise Greater Birmingham as have the furnaces and industries, because 1t has attracted and is attracting hun dreds of shoppers to this district. Its semi annual openings are therefore of as much importance in commercial life as in the world of fashion.

The dress goods in- cluded all the novelties direct from fashion centers. summer fabrics which truly the beauty-loving women of Bir- mingham were not satisfied with only a glance-all the clements entering into typical spring opening.
 No firm has had more successful career than Burger, now occupying for its third season it's handsome new store, and rapidly growing in fame and popularity, ranking with the lead ing firms in the south.
 The millinery opening included French hats and American, but all noted for style and beauty. Spring toggery," the delight of every woman, made the millinery department the pop- ular mecca throughout the day.
 Fashions in hats was the one theme. and the display at Burgers gave the key note to conversation and the key to fashion.
