ance OF the members present, to receive the

]. w. Fulmer, chairman; ]. NJ. Fowlkez, and
w. w. Schoolfeld.
Mai. Fulmer made a verbal report 10
effect that the committee had been consider
ing the proposition 10 purchase the Stanton
Block, sou theast corner Madison AMI Front
streets, 24a by IS feet, which had been offered
to the Exchange for S37, 500 cash or $4,000
on time. The committee had conferred with
the Board OF Directors, and the conclusion
arrived at was that the building could not
be made suitable for an Exch ange on account
OF being too small. Msi. Fulmer euggested,
as the opinion OF the committee, That in
view of the possibility of the Merchants
Exchange cooperating with the Cotton Ex-
change in erecting a building, it would be
better 10 go off OF Front street in search of
a site.
Mr.. j. r Goodwin moved that the report
of the committee be accepted.
President Toof announced that before he
would put that motion he would give other
me mbers oil the Exchange an opportunity to
e1prsss their views.
Mr.. William N Brown wanted TO know
what amount was 10 the credit Of the Build
ing Fund.
Mij Fnlner answered that the amount is
nssrly S2l 900, and if the entire rumbsr of
seats were taken up the amounl would be
$4,000.
Mr.. Goodwin stated that the report OF the
committee met his individual views, as he
was in favor of erecting handsome build
ing, at the same lima he believed that il
should be built for the accom- modatio Of
both Exchanges. He concluded his remarks
with motion that this committee confer
and COOPERATE with a similar COMMITTEES
from the Merchants Exchange in the selec.
ton of suitable site for an EKchsnge build.

To kiss the gift that God had sent,
And with e heart of love and joy
she ole Ell Him this baby boy
To watch and keep from hsrn and sin
To teach him how His love to win.
Her voice was heard in heaven above,
Her prayer had reached His throne OF love-
And all the angels gathered near
To pray for him-the baby dear;
And while they knelt in silence round,
Just then was heard rustling sound
OF wings and from their midst took flight
An Angel, pure. and spotless white,

Until it reached the mothers side,
And knelt beside the babe-her pride.
So quietly it nestled near,
That cen the mother could not hear
The folding wings and plaintive prayer
OF that bright little angel there.

I've come from far above the skies,
Where dwells our God, SO good and wise;
And, in this home of true delight,

Who, even now, are praying-sweet,
Then, come with mel I'm watt waiting II sdt dear;
Comel leave this earth so cold and drear

Were coming soon, for gentle mother,
And, though we leave her weeping sad
We'll both soon come to make her glad"
And thus, the angel, with smile,
Was whispering to the mothers child,
Till from her arms her baby's soul
Had softly, to the angel stole
Then opening wide her quivering wings,
Sweet Lila with the angels sings:
And. pointing to the ieweled skies,
She grasps her brother and upward flies.
The gales of Heaven are thrown ajar
And sounds of music are heard afar:
While, mingling soft each angels voice,
In one grand song they all rejoice,

Hath chosen for angels, Lila and Wharton Recto
