THE LUNAR ECLIPSE
Viewed at Augusta Wednesday Night
Under Best Possible Conditions.

Augusta people enjoyed the oppor-
tunity of viewing the lunar eclipse
Wednesday evening under the most
favorable conditions possible. The
moon fulled that morning and the
night was clear, so that the eclipse
could not have been seen to better
advantage.
The earth's shadow first touched the
moon at the lower left hand side of
the disc at 9.42, or to be accurate. at
941 $40, and the middle of the eclipse
was reached at about 11.13, about nine
tenths of the moons disc being cover
ed. The moon finally, left the shadow
at 12.44 this morning.

horses formerly used to haul the hook
and ladder truck of the fire depart

en- to the City farm and had since that
time been useed on the rubbish wag-
on, was stricken with black water
Wednesday morning while the crew
was collecting rubbish on Water
street The animal was with difficulty
taken back to the farm and there dis
posed of. BY a singular coincidence
her mate, "John." suffered an attack
of the same disease Tuesday, though
not so severe, and 1t is believed that
he will recover and be of further use
at the farm. The horses were pur-
chased by the city about II years ago,
of Joseph Mclean of Mt. Vernon av-
enue, at that time being in their
prime, and were probably the finest
pair of fire horses then owned hV the
CITY, They were well matched and as
runners no other team could head
them. Their term of service was a
long and faithful one.

The members of Co. M, End Infantry,
have been delayed in beginning their
indoor rifle practice by the non-arriv-
al of the targets, but these essentials
have now been received and the work
will begin at once, the small caliber
rifles being used. There seems to be a
general interest in the work and there
will be plenty of practice in the arm
ory in the basement of City hall from
now until April 10. at which time
practice on the rifle range will begin.
Several rifle teams will be formed for
the indoor work, and the boys have al
ready received a challenge from Deputy
Marshal Choate's rifle team, which Is
composed of civilians and which in
cludes some of the best rifle shots in
the city. Deputy Choate is crack
shot himself and the infantry boys
will have to look to their laurels lest
the Choate team rings in winning
score on them.

began work Wednesday afternoon on
the big elm tree on the river bank
just south of the east end of the Ken

one of the worst infested trees in the

that part of the city and the entire
top was literally covered with the win
ter nests of the insect, there being
hardly a twig to which one was not
fastened. There are also many nests
on the small trees along the river
bank just north of City hall.
