AT THE GRAND.'
An E tiling for Ban fi. of the
Brunswiok Library.
A fair-oiz-d and appreciative audi
enoe enj ije J tbe [entertainment given
last night at the Grand for the bejiedf
of Brunswick Library.
/The program consisted of a reoital
of “E ioob Arden” and humorousjk-'
lections, by Mias May Agnes Jolley,
and a musical and vocal concert
by tbe Marina bar and and loading local
amateur vooalista.
Miss Kelly, tbe talented elooutiooist,
very effectively reolted “Enooh Ar
den,” bolding her bearers entranced
from beginning to end, swaying them
to teara with ber pathos, thrilling
them with her emotional powers, and'
arousing their mirth with her humor
out sketches of “Naming the Kittens,"
and “A Naughty Girl in a Hotel.”
M iss Kelly’s every gesture and move
ments were the embodiment of grace.
The warm plaudits wbioh greeted her
efforts were well earned.
The Marine bind’s selections, under
the able manage ment of Prof. Baum
gartner, were well received.
Mrs. A. J . Crovati’s sole, “O Prom
ise Me," was applauded, and ebe,ln
appreciation, gave as an encore, “My
Liu.”
'l'be quartette, "Home, Sweet Home,”
by Meedamea Raymond and (Jrovatt
and Messrs. Raymond sud Smith, was
very sweetly rendered.
The “Blue and Gray,” by Mrs. Ray
mond, with a tableau in the back
ground, representing the Confederate
and On on eoldier in their respective
uniform-, Impersonated by Messrs.
Tworaey, Butts and B iley, was re
ceived with enthusiasm. Mrs. Ray
mond gave as an encore, “In May."
Mr. A. W. Smith’s solo, “Deep Dowp,
Deep,” again aoored a hit.
Asa whole the entertainment was
excellent, the only incident to mar the
evening being the loud talking and
whittling indulged in by persons in
the lobby, wbioh at one time waa such
as to interrupt the elocutionist in the
midst of her reoitation.
iC. BROWN WILL

oonceded now that Mr. F. McC. Brown
will be the new postmaster. He has
eeoured the endorsement of the loeil
republican oommittee, the Eleventh
district anil the state oommittee and
bar no opposition at present from any
sourer., Chariiji* A. Clark, the well
fcnowu colored barber, waa an appli
cant for tbe postmastership and scour
ed one of the strongest endorsements
frbm the business men and politicians

up. Ills endorsement!.were from men
In every walk of life and nepfeaented
all tbit a man needed In that libe.
Members of both faclions of tbe dem

Clark’s paper, andjds withdrawal

GENTRY NARROWLY
ESCAPED DEOWNING
He Was Accidentally Thrown Qff
a Launch and Sank
Three Times.
RESCUED BY CAPTAIN DUDLEY
Mr. Gentry and Capt. E. P. Howell Both
Had Close Calls—The Story of
Their Thrilling Adventure.
The Atlanta Journal reaching Bruns
wick yesterday eays:
A party of Atlanta gentlemen have
just returned from a fishing trip to
Brunswick and southwest Georgia,
and relate an inc dent which was al
most a tragedy, in which two members
of the party almost los 1 their lives.
In the party were Captain E. F.
Howell, Messrs. Clsrk Howell, Sr.,
Albert Howell, Jr,, W. 1.. Cosgrove,
W. T. Gentry, Clarence Angier, John
C. Ruse, Judge G. 11. Tanner and Mr.
1.. J. Maxwell, ot'Savannali, Ga. The
party'left Brunswick about 1 o’clock
on Wednesday afternoon, May 23rd,
aboard the lanrvih Atlanta, owned by
Albert Howell, Jr., on a short fishing
trip up the Satilla river. On the trip
the machinery of the launch got out of
order, and a tug was employed to tow
the launch whioh was lashed alongside
the tug.
About 6 o’clock in the evening the
entire parly, with one or two excep
tions, were on top of the launch, eat
ing or waiting for supper. The width
of tbe launch would allow only f iur of
the party to eat at one time. Cap’.
Ifowell, Mr. Cosgrove. Mr. Maxwell
ami Mr.-Gentry had tPil?*""'! supper
and were sitting on the front end of
the launch, talking and smoking. Tie*
table bad been set the seoond time,
and Measrs. Ruse, Angier and Albort
Howell, Jr., were eating. Someobjeot
struck the boat, causing it to careen
badly and Mr. Ruse was thrown bick
ward over tbe side of tbs launch into
tbe tug boat, knooking blm senseless,
but otherwise causing no serious in

rushed to Mr. Ruse’s assistance, and
the boat on one side,
oaueing it to turn over to an extent
whiob left the top at an angle of 45
degrees, and all Of tbe party on top
slid off into the water. Mr. Gantry
and Mr. Howell, being on the front of
tbe launch,fell into the wat§y>tfetween
tbe tug boat aod thy and im
mediately disappeared from 'flew. My.
tJfta#ftf?i s 7who was on tbe front part
of tbe launch, succeeded in landing in
tbe tug. The lot ber gentlemen, b’ing
In tbe rear of ts> launch, landed in tbe
tug without injury.
Capt. Howell and Mr. Gentry came
up under the tug, and finding them
selves in this pr; dicament, dived be
low the propeller aid avoided serious
Injury. Capt. Howell soon came to the
surface,. and toing a good ewimmer,
bad no difficulty in remaining on the
surface. In the fait, Mr. Gentry’s head
struck the tug and he received a severe
lick in the side, rendering him ucoon
■oious. He regained consciousness in
the water, however, and came to the
surface about seventy five yards in the
boat. Although a poor swimmer, wii h
only one arm, and having on all bis
clothes, he suoesded in remaining on
top some tiralie Anally went down,
however, but arose to fink the second

a few seconds af.er sinking the third
time by Capt. Elward Dudley, of the
tug boat.
It was only by the merest clia oe
that the party tad a small boat along.
Shortly after leaving St. Mary’s
sound, the party passed an old negro
man in a bateau, and Mr. Howell in
structed the captain of the tug to give
the old man a tow. The tog was

have been no small boat along, and as
the tug was making eight miles an
hour, it could not have been stopped,

time to save Mr. G-ntry. Captain
Dudley untied the bateau and rowed

Capt. Howell was in good condition
