GAINESVILLE, November -.
The beautiful days We have enjoyed
40 much have passed away. The merry,
happy birds, with their sweet music.
have lett us and sought their Southern
homes 10 ha>k in the sunshin" OF that
tropical cline. And a. we now listen
to the patter OF the rain upon the roof 1t
seems To- offer silent requiem to the
departed brightness. Yet there is a
music in its sound that charms us, and
as We listen 10 its patter in silence and
solitude We retrospect the past and hit,
as best We may, the curtain OF the dim
future and wonder shall We again see
the bright flowers and the glad awaken
inc Of all things into lie and beauty
after tn. icy mantle shall be lifted and
winter passed away! Who can tell?

''Wall" Evans, Il young man oi our
town, has found Il new invention 10
keep from being disturbed from his
dreamy sleep or delightful morning nap.
"Wes' Gibson went to Evans room at
the Iancc House. the other evening,
and ATTEMPTED 10 awaken that Slumber-
ing worthy, who would not be disturbed
and threatened to shoot the man who
would disturb his snooze.
Gibson persisted and Evans appeared
NJ the door, revolver in hand, and dis
charged one barrel. Gibson caug ght and
threw up his arm, else | should have Il
tragic occurrence to record. and there
would have been much mourning III the
house Of Lowe. II is not known whether
Evans was drunk or partly asleep which
