twas Very Beautiful.

They sat in lover-like simplicity at
the starboard end of the sofa, twitter-
ing sweet nothings that were carried
up to the throne of Love on platters of
priceless pearl by Cupids with rides
cent wings that cleaned in the golden
smile of Venus with drops of ambro-
sial dew.
THAT'S a beautiful morceau," she
murmured with boarding-school ecs-
tasy, as she quoted some gem of beauty.
"Ah, yes" he answered, more so
than anything l have seen for some
time"
Then a great horse blanket of infinite
silence fell upon them, broken only by
her small brother as he wriggled from
beneath the sofa and fled like a lost
soul through the parlor door.

can boast he has handed over the Government
in q state OF unclonded prosperity.
III Aeecs says there Is every likelihood that
Cleveland will justify the confidence reposed in
him. Widespr. al interest In his election seems
to promise the rescue of the Government from
the ascendency of professional politicians. This
mission the nation has given to Cleveland, and
1t seems probable he will fulfill it.
The Times says the inaugural address Is con-

on the main questions awaiting solution.
The Standard says Cleveland's address is
manly and sensible but extremely non commit
tai.
The Ddilg Ne,rs says editorially: President

II. s. MERRY, principal of the col

Wednesday at the home of his brother
in Jackson, Tennessee. His health be-
gan to fail month or two ago, and he
was carried away by rapid consump
ton. The news of his demise was re-
ceived with sorrow and regret by the
entire community. He was a most
excellent man, and filled his position
with the greatest satisfaction to all.
He was an ornament to his race, and
his color did not prevent his being
recognized by every one with whom
he came is contact as a true gentle
man. Competent in his calling, polite
and unassuming in his demeanor, he
did his duty well, and his memory will
always have high place in the esti-
nation OF the GAINESVILLE public.
