GAINESVILLE, as we pen these
lines, looks deserted. Poverty Row,
where the disciples OF Blackstone
are usually to be seen diving down
into the depths of musty, worm
eaten records to bring forth prece-
dents to astonish the judge upon the
bench and force the capillary sub
stance of his wig to raise like the
pulls of the fretfuI porcupine, is as
quiet as a nursery. No sounds are
now heard like the p~attering of
heavy hailstones on Roth's and
Lehman's back sheds, and those
ROSTERS of their profession-who
cheer the inner man, with bivaives
on the half-shell, in the fry, or in
the stew, with accompanying etcete-
rdS, are cOgitating whether or not to
close their doors. For the nonce,
with them "Othello's occupation is
gone" The cause of this exodus
among the legal fraternity has been
a question for debate among the
quiet tend-to-your-own-business
class of population. Some surmise
that each one of these great legal
is in Nashville looking after
the funding of his thousands of Ten
nesSee bonds. Others suppose they
are lobbying for a new lunatic asy-
Ium; a house of correction, or leg
ging for superintendent of the peni-
Tertiary. The truth is, a pale-faced
representative of the American
came i'm our midst last Tuesday and
proper papers summoned
among them our editor, to
90 to Nashville and appear before
the house investigation committee
As witness pro and con in the Tyler
case. Our editor has our sympa-
-hies, with this injunction: to take
nothing stronger than Migrants

sanitary Notice.

We are requested by the secretary
Of the board Of health to state that
the sanitary inspectors will be
ordered On duty April /. 1t is nee
cessary to urge upon our citizens
the importance of a strict obser-
vance to sanitary regulations. Dip
iberia and scarlet fever are now
playing havoc among the children
of some of the Northern cities.
Filth has accumulated about prem
ises and in cellars during the winter
months which should be removed
before the warm April days set in.
In this connection we would call
the attention of our citizens to the
importance of vaccination. There
has not been any systematic vacci-
nation here since 1865. Hundreds
of children attending our public
schools have never been vaccinated.
The health officer, DIR. C. w. Beau
mont, has recently received a sup
ply of vaccine virus, directly from
the heifer, which is. pure. 1t will
be furnished physicians free of
charge, and all who are too poor to
employ physicians can be vaccinat-
ed free gratis by calling upon DR..

board of health.

Death Of Sam B. mcCauIey, OF
Meanwhile.

The many friends and acquain-
tances of this most excellent young
gentleman, in our city, were
shocked to hear of his sudden and
untimeiy death, which occurred at
Springfield, Tenn, on last Saturday
afternoon, at 8 o'clock, of pneumo-
mia. He was well known here,
having commenced his business ca
reer in our city, and was highly
thought of and respected by all
with whom he came in contact,
whether in business or in the social
circle. AT the time of his death, he
was a partner of the large and
fiourishing wholesale dry goods
house of Dibrell, Morgan, Thomas
d Co., Nashville, Tenn, and did
much by his untiring energy AMI
fine business capacity to build up
and extend the business of his
To his friends and relatives
here and at his home, we extend
our sympathy in this sad affection,
for great indeed must be their loss.

Our streets.

We IN pleased to see that the
street committee of our excellent
city fathers are beginning to pay
attention to our thoroughfares,
which, owing doubtless to the Sc
we're weather of the past winter,
which has prevented any satisfac-
tory work being done upon them,
are in sad need of repair. We no.
tice that they are having the east
end of Franklin street, and also
Fifth cross street, graded and newly
macadamized. 1t gives US pleasure
to mention the careful manner in
which the work is being done, and
know enough of the gentlemen
who compose this committee to bear
us out in the assertion that they
will leave nothing undone to give
us good streets the coming spring
and summer.

For all have something in their life,
That they, and they alone, may bear
a triling lie, a deadly sin,
A something bought they did not win.
MY folded leaf! how blue eyes CLEAN
And blot the dark brown eye | see.
And golden curlS at evening beam
Above the black locks at my knee!
All me T! that leaf is folded down,
And ave for me the lOcksa are brown.
And yet [ love them who sit by,
NY best and dearest, dearest now,
NAV not know for what / sigh,
What brings the shadow on my brow.
Ghosts at the best so let them be,
Nor come etwee my life and me.

To light the lamp and close the blind
Small perfume fingers in the flower
That sleeps hat folded page behind
To let it ever folded lie:

Our friend MI. j. r. Hawkes., of
South GAINESVILLE, stopped us upon
the street the other day and drew
forth what we at first thought was
a death warrant, in the shape of an
Arkansaw toothpick, or something
of the kind. We were agreeably
relieved when he disclaimed any
hostile intentions and showed us a
phenomenal hog tooth, nine inches
in length. The pOlcine, which was
at one time the war-like possessor
of this dangerous tusk, belonged to
Mr.. w. H. Grizzard, of Stewart
county, and weighed 500 pounds
when killed.

years ago he began to seek earnestly the

The Latest from Nasbviue.

The funding bill passed its first
reading in the senate on Thursday.
This was a mere form, the contest
being reserved for the second read
ing. We have confident anticipa-
tions of it's final passage. Those
who are best informed speak of
more than one accession to the num-
bers who will vote for it; they will
give a margin for accidents that will
render its passage a certainty.
We respect conscientious scruples
in all cases, and if some for whom
entertain the highest respect
may feel themselves obliged to vote
against the bill, we look upon the
fact with regret, but with no
thought of condemnation. Every
man is his own judge in the court
of conscience.

nELIEE FoR QUE RoAps.


We have said much and the press
all over the state have been writing
and urging upon the legislature the
great need of some effective legisla-
ton in regard to the public roads.
We are pleased to see that the legis-
lature has at last awakened to the
great importance of the subject, and
that several bills have been intro
dueed in the last few weeks looking
towards a thorough reform of the
present system. Among these bills
the one most likely to become a law
is that of Representative Wilkes,
which has passed its third reading
in the house. We have not the
space to give the full text of the bill.
1t is very long, and we think it
might be shortened with effect. The
principle feature provides
That it shall be the duty of the
county courts of each county in the
state to divide their respective
counties into road districts, ut the
first quarterly term after the passage
of this act, and to elect three COM
missiOners for each road district, to-
be residents of the districts for
which they are elected, the one first
elected for each district, and his
successors, to be the clerk and treas
urer OF his district, and to serve
three years, dating from January,
1881; the one next elected for each
district to serve two years, dating
from January, 1881; and the one
last elected in each district to serve
one year, dating from January,
1881, and until all their successors
i'm Office are elected and qualified ;
and they shall have control of all
highways and bridges in their re-
spective districts, etc., etc.
1t will thus be seen that it puts
the entire management of the roads
in the hands of commissioners APP
pointed by the respective county
courts with full power to act, and to
give close and careful attention to
the working of the roads.
Special legislation upon this i'm
portant branch of internal improve
ment of the state has long been
needed, and, if properly enforced, it
will prove one of the most beneficial
laws enacted by the legislature for
years.

voted against the 1903 bill to settle

we think Mr.. Bagwell will find that
he has erred in opposing it.
