A FeIicitous Pavilion Episode.

EDITOR HERALD: That was gen.
erous in Florence. Whats To
yield up eligibly situated space on
the first floor Of Horticultural Hall
for space on the second floor; space
below stairs which Florentines had
partially decorated, for space above,
where decoration had to begin
anew. The spacer of the Pavilion
had assigned about every eligible
situation. Los Nietos valley began
10 roll in their great pumpkins,
tall corn, etc.; when, upon exam
nation of the diagram Of spaces,
1t was found that none had been
assign ned to Los Nietos. Hero was
a situation which for time SEEM
ed to be remediless. I called a
caucus Of Florentines, at the time
decorating the space assigned to
them. Do you think that the
Florentines said they would see
the Nietans under a milldam be-
fore they would let them have any
space? Nary milldam. Florence
has no milldams-not even q col
ored waterfall over the edge of n
goblet. Adolphus Russell proposed
to give Los Nietos one-half Of the
Florence space. The other Floren-
tines said, ut is WE'LL" But said
that this would leave too little
space to Florence and not half
enough for Los Nietos. What.
then, shall we do about it? Go up
into the gallery. What with our
200-pound pumpkins? Yes; spread
our decorations and products ON
the north wall, and spread our
vineyard over the open space be-
tween the galleries around the
fountain. Instead of crushing your
humble servant with 200 pound
pumpkins, for the rash proposition
of rolling up stairs and planting a
vineyard in the air, the Floren-
tines said, with one accord, ITO

Just here the Hon. J. w. Vena.
BILE, who is devoting his
time to working up q

Judge Venable said you shall not
quit your space and go to the gal

will exhibit q little here and lit

the repentance OF the sinner. He spoke
ieelinaly OF a dear grandmother who had
passed away unconverted. "AlthouRh
she was good and kind. aud dearly DO

the reward OF oil who die not owning
Christ. know that she is In hell. At
this juncture q young man sitting near

aisle toward The door. Mr.. Moody said:
There is a man who IL tired listening
about Christ. He Is going straight to
bell" The young fellow. annoyed at
being held up TO public notice. turned
and said In q quiet. clear voice. "Well,
Is there any message I can take to your
