AN ELABORATE
GAME AND FISH
SUPERSEDED
AFFAIR AT PENSACOLA YACHT
AND MOTOR BOAT CLUB HOUSE
WAS ONE OF MOST ENJOYABLE
OF THE SEASON.

Another of those delightful affairs
for which the Pensacola Yacht and
Motor Boat club is becoming so famous
occurred last night, when the MEM
bers gathered at the club house at the
foot of Alcaniz street to enjoy game
and fish supper, celebrating the
Thanksgiving hunt and fish. which
selected from the club members, it
having been agreed that the losing
team was to treat the club to a game
and fish supper on this date.
An elaborate feast was spread, con-
sfsting of game and fish of almost
every conceivable kind, while the
dining room was most artistically
decorated. A noticeable feature of the
table decorations was the arrange
ment Of tiny boats and guns in the
centre of each table.
Commodore T. c. Watson acted as
POSTMASTER and announced the scores
made by the two opposing teams,
which were as follows: Capt. Jas. c.
Watson's team, 1850; Capt. c. Ray
Mitchelfs team, 1859. After announc-
ing the scores of the teams, Commo-
dore Watson called upon the captain
of the losing team to explain the large
IN very pleasing and humorous man
ner. ending by presenting the captain
OF the winning team with a package,
which when opened proved to be an
air gun. DR.. c. Ray Mitchell, cap
tain Of the winning team, responded
in an appropriate manner, saying that
the gun being an air rife, there could
be no doubt that the opposing team
had plenty of ammunition to go with
it.
Others who made short remarks
were: Clarke Witherill, R. 3. King,
Jas. Green. W. P. Bronson, J. G. Ward,

The Buyer.
Mo
NO /.

This is the first of three talks on
spending your money to the best ad-
vantage. Each talk is an ad and
every word in each article is the truth.
The idea is to present an old subject
in a new way. There are several rea
sons why people send out of their
home town for merchandise. The
first of these is, they think they can
get more for their money. Or they
may have liked piece of jewelry
worn by a friend from a large city.
The piece Of jewelry is pretty, not ex-
pensive, and one of those novelties
that every one wants. They go right
down to Binkeldorf's to make their
purchase. He, the jeweler, can tell at
a glance that the article cost fifty
cents or at the most seventy five
cents. No, he hasn't it, he is not going
to get any, does not think they would
SELL The customer stands first on one
foot, then on the other, looks in the
show case, the jeweler does not offer
to get the desired article he has for
gotten for the moment that the Gus
toner will want anything for Christ
mas. The customer goes home and
hauls out I. Ketchum and L. Cheatem
catalog, and 10, there is the selfsam
article for only thirty-nine cents, post
four cents extra. When it comes it
looks just like Mary's. and Mary paid
fifty cents for hers. 1t does look the
same ION top You buy jewellery be-
cause it is pretty. useful and durable.
The customer thinks she has a bar
gain. She saved cents minus the finish
and durability. She forgot that one OF
Uncle Sans iron men is worth exact
ly one hundred cents. either to the
home merchant or I. Ketchum and L.
Cheatem. Ketchum and Cheatum
cannot give you fifty cents for thirty
nine cents unless they take the differ
ence out of the goods. The Romans
used to fill the coins that were for dis
tribution among the barbarians with
lead. Finally the barbarians got wise
and filed the edges of every coin be-
fore they would accept it. Go thou
and do likewise.

The Academy.
The Congregation of the Sisters of
the Perpetual Alteration was founded
by Very Reverend Aloysius Faller, at
Bellemagny, Haute-Alsace, in 1851,
where it continues to this day. In
1877 Reverend Father Faller sent out
a number of the Religious to America,
there to continue the work which he,
their holy founder. had entrusted to
them. Since the year 1885 the branch
houses of the order in America have
been under the direction of Reverend
Mother NJ. Augustine as Superioress
General.
The primary object Of this Congre-
cation is the Alteration of the Most
Blessed Sacrament. to which its men,
bers hind themselves by VOW at their
profession.
During the hour of alteration. which
every Religious makes during the day
and again during the night, she is
obliged TO offer reparation to our
Rlesed lord for the insults committed
against Him in the Sacrament of His
love.
The secondary object of the insti-
tUe is the education of youth. The
Sisters have academies. boarding and

in the semi-centennial year, 1906, by
grateful alumni.
The physical plant of the college is

past year has been large and the WORK
has been of very high order of ex-

Taking a just pride in what has
been done in the past, the alumni and
all the friends of the institution at
this commencement time are able to
look into the future with brighter
hopes for a greater success and a lar

He Says. !. -.--.tz.

Attorney General Lyon had the al
legged dispensary "graft" cases against
Towil and others continued in the
i Richland court in Columbia last week.
II find myself so embarrassed" said
Attorney General Lyon, "by the atti-
tude and acts of certain other Off
cials, that I can not proceed to try
these cases at this term of court with
any hope of yindicaing the law or Of
having justice done -
''The source through which I have
received much evidence and informa-
tion heretofore, and through which
arranged for the attendance of neces-
sary witnesses has been arbitrarily
cut off, and it is necessary for me to
rearrange and readjust, if possible
my plans in these cases.
"On account of these conditions
consider it unwise to attempt the trial
of these cases at the present term OF
the court ...
1T is desired and hoped that the
State can be ready to dispose of them
at the next term Of court
"It is my expectation to do so, un-
less something shall arise, or condi-
tions shall then exist which shall sat-
isfy the judge then presiding that the
cases ought not to be tried, ard that
it will be for the best interest of the
State to further continue them.
1T is impossible now to make a.
more definite statement as to the trial
Of these cases at the next term Of
court. 1t is my wish and expectation
to dispose Of them, as l have already
stated"

pending in the Richland county court
are John Black. charged in the con-
spiracy indictment and in another in
dictment for giving pribe; John Bell
Towill, L. w. Boykin and W. O. Tatum,

Attorneys representing those in
dicted asked that an order be issued
to have the cases mol pressed at the
next term of court unless brought to
trial. This order was refused by the
court on the grounds that the de-
PENDANTS had not pressed for trial un-
til this term of court. although the
cases had been docketed in 1909 The

The address before the College Y.
NJ. C. A. in the opera house on Sunday
night was delivered by the Rev. Will
liam Hoppe, of Savannah, His address
was raplete WITH deep thought OF
practical effect and value, delivered
with a pure diction, and couched in
beautiful language. He chose his text
from Hebrews, 3:1-4: "Wherefore,
holy brethren, partakers of the heaV-
enly calling, consider the Apostle and
the High Priest Of our profession,
Christ Jesus; Who was faithful to
him that appointed him, as also
Moses was faithful in all his house.
For this man was counted worthy OF
more glory than Moses, inasmuch as
he who hath builded the house hath
more honor than the house. For every
house is builded by some man; but he
that built all things is God"
Christianity is characterized by two
tendencies, he said. In this epistle
the apostle recognizes this difference
of conception. He argues with the
Jewish Christians against adherence
to the old covenant when protesting
to live under the new. He compares
the two dispensations with their great
