for two or three days at their resi-
dence on Lauderdale street with
strong symptoms of pneumonia. This
morning. however, she was much
easier and in a condition that inspired
her friends with a hopeful feeling.
The market is being flooded with
the new tobacco of B. F, Graveley's
manufacture, whilst the rare two-year-
old goods are commanding high fig
ure and a premium owing to its ex>
ceeding rarity and particularly fine
stock. Sol Coleman is one OF the few
merchants that makes the old goods
specially. He does not handle the
new tobacco.
A movement is on foot looking to-
ward the organisation of new mu.
steal society for the rendition of vocal
and instrumental compositions. The
enterprise bids fair to assume large
proportions, being in the hands oil
