summer Life of a Prima Donna.
81. Louis Globe. Democrat.

New Hartford is less known to the
busy world us railroad, Il telegraph or
an industrial centre than as the favorite
summer retreat Of that queen Of song,
Clara Louise Kellogg. The life Of this
bright star among the villagers at New
Hartford is unaffected and rather IN
clined to the rollicking. While there
she gets up picnics and excursions for
her friends among the people. She
abandons the divine harmonies of
Mozart and Verdi and Meyerbeer and
other favorite composers, with which
She has set the musical world on end,
for the most boisterous of negro planta-
ton songs. But with all the wild sim
plicity Of rompish, girlish life, her
neighbors say she mingles 4 streak Of
industry. One season, it is said, She
brought her seamstrcss with her, and
besides practising eight operas, re-
modelled, rcjuvenated or renewed her
extensive operate wardrobe. Whysuch
il musical prodigy ever selected New
Hartford rs a summer refuge IS II puzzle
even to the villagers themselves,
Her home ut Cold Spring.
New York, with all its at
fractions has failed to meet her wishes,
some say on account Of its convent
cnce to the lines Of travel and the con
scquent intrusion of visitors; others say
her maternal parent, who attends her
even here with II jealous care, rs a sort
Of self-constituted custodian of the eth
les Of tie daughters life, rebeled
against the cares and toll Of her daugh-
ter's bountiful hospitality there At
New Hartford She is u simple boarder,
though she owns Il small property in
the village. Not many miles away her
ancestors liveda and moved and had their
being, and were gathered unto their
fathers very much us in the oIdcn time
Of Town Hill, therefore She doubtless
feels M inheritance in the SOIL and IL
vested right to dance and sing and be
merry, To throw OF the restraints and
conventionalitics of professional life
and follow, to her hearts content, the
impulses Of her wild, erratic nature.
Mr.. Kellogg, who sometimes accompan-
les his daughter on her summerings is,
or was, according to the whims of civil
service, holding an oillce in the New
York custom house. As regards Miss
Kellogg presence now, we unite with
the villagers in deep sense Of regret
that she will pass the present summer

He will introduce a fine animal purchas-
ed by his brother in Marion county. he
il chestnut sOrrel, very handsome, lately
from the Kentucky turf, and If we are not
mistaken in his appearance, will create
something Of . sensation among the fell
lows during the season.
Hank Lowe recently brought on lot
Of horses, and has q little bay animal on
hand which he promises 20 show soon. He
thinks she will excite the jealousy OF
some Of those who think they have fine
trotters.
Horace BundEen's Ane animal having
died recently he has purchased new
one from Topeka We hEVe not had ''the

know that Horace never brought poor

Correct, except that the wholesale
liquor business can be carried on all
the same, license or no license, and the
license does not specify pints, half
pints, or any ether quantity, and can
only prohibit the liquor from being
drank on the premises. The question
was whether or not the council would
impose q 900 tax on the Wholesale
house, or let it run and pay no tax,
and it put on the tax. The statute Is
