THE ART EXCHANGE.
II. Purpose. more Fully DEFINED.

It appears that the workings Of

in the fancy line articles made in plain
sewing preserves, jellies and pickles,

and anything which good housekeeper
can make, and any one wishes 70

the article sells for, in order TO
defray expenses, and the balance paid
over 10 the owner. For the art loan,
which begins on the twentieth of April
and lasts ten days, they want everything
beautiful they can get-Old relics and Gu
riosities. The ladies all over the state

ting and praising the occasion.
Tickets of a peculiarly appropriate
and beautiful design had been
printed and distributed with care
tul discrimination, three to each
senator and congressman there was
an immense pressure brought to
bear for tickets which were of
course far below the demand, but
the powers were memorable. The
galleries would seat no more, and
no one wanted to see the grand
crush of Inauguration day repeated.
A few thrifty ones, however, sold
their tickets and staid home, pre-
ferring to put money in their purses,
and miss the historic occasion.
Two of your distinguished towns
men have been among the recent
arrivals in the city, Mr.. Francis B.
Forster, who staid but a few hours,
and Mr.. j. NJ. Swisher, who is still
here. Mr.. Stillwell Russell is also

Obituary.

WEEDEN N. HUME was born in Boone
county, kentucky, March 81, 1907. He
married Del1lah G.. Hughes, December
23d, 1884. In 1857, he removed from
Kentucky to Paris, Edgar county, Ill.
Thence, he came to Texas in 1875, hop
ing that the change of climate wonld re-
store his wife to health, but death had
marked her for his own, and she died in
1876, in the sixty-second year of her age.
Alter the loss of his wife, he lived only
for the interest and happiness of his two
surviving sons and their families. He
expired on the 9th of February, 1882, at
the good old age of IA years. Mr.. Hume
was an honest man, sincere friend, and
a most devoted father. His children loved
and honored him. Beautiful was the low
ing care they bestowed upon the venera-
BILE patriach.
They strove to anticipate his every want
and crafty his every wish. Their pre-
sence and tender minIstrations cheered
him in his great sufferings, and the strong
arms of his weeping sons supported him
when dying. He who said "honor thy
father and thy mother" will reward
them. His pilgrimage has ended; his
earthly race is finished; his last battle has
been fought earth has been commit
ted to earth, but the spirit has flown to
Him who gave it. Mr.. Hume was not
afraid to die fully conceived that his
end was near. He made his preparations,
gave his last instructions, and then laid
him down to rest in Jesus love. May the
Great Comforter impart cheerful submits
submission to the afflicted family, and
may 1t form a whole family in heaven.
