healthy enterprise, ga market" such as the
stock jobbers are always praying for. And so
cur little city has its seasons of prosperity and
encouragement, as well as its periods of de
preston and dependency. Let all take
heart Our darkest days have gone by and
the light CLEANS through the grey shadows Of
the coming dawn.
Some straight laced people, SO called, or so
thought to be, have no doubt had some e.
cellent excuses in their time. To be straight
of lace is to be on the self-defensive. For e.
ample there's the circus Iron clad fox are
always inveigbed against thai popular amuse-
nent. We have thought this severity MS
placed We have Thought this world governed
too much But We have discovered'a reason
for reprehending the horse opera When
Forepaugh's circus was here last summer it
was accompanied by a clown who sang O.
whistied or otherwise emitted song o. tune
called The Erannigan Guard. Since that time
no delicate ear has been free from the danger
Of a most grievous and persis eat annoyance
aJ any hour OF the nigat or day. This dis
tracing tune has the jingle Of a quicjstep and
SO it hes a charm for the Young and the
emotional. We wish Mr.. Forepaugh and his
circus in the deep, deep sea, upon hearing
that impertinent tune as it bursts upon our
unwilling tymPonum.

arm chair standing in the window of the
O1lnsby bar yesterday was made for Mr. |

The FESTIVAL last night was not as festive
as it might have been, though the ladies
were very bright and cheerful and obHging
The tables were very attractive, especially the
supper table. We suggested to one lady
friend who kept the ice cream and calves
foot jelly table, that bit Of dance would
warm up the assembled throng to quicker
appreciation of and appetite for, her comesti-
bles and CONNECTIONS. But she shook her
head against the proposed indulgence. There
seemed to be lively incoming at the door,
and we are in hopes to be able to state that
the fair has been a profitable one. Il
