Silk Crepes in all the lovely

Reading tho Scriptures from, n Law Book.
The Rev. James Buckley, editor OF
The Christian Advocate, is the posses
sor of remarkable memory. To this
he owes much of his success as
preacher and debater. In the conven-
tons of ecclesiastical bodies Of the
Methodist church Mr.. Buckley is
known all over this country for his
readiness for quoting precedent and
law apropos to the subject under dis
cussion. Mr. Buckley relates an Incl
dent in his experience in which this
faculty came into play to good pur-
pose. He was called to officiate at
funeral, and when the mourners and
friends had all assembled large book
was handed to him from which to
read the appropriate scriptural lesson.
On opening the book MIR. Buckley
was surprised to see that it contained
the laws of the state of Connecticut.
Without hesitation or showing the
least embarrassment he began leaping
through the book until he had reached
that portion of the Connecticut laws
where the golden bowl, the pitcher
broken at the fountain, and similar
prophetic passages are recorded from
the Bible Bending his eyes upon the
book he began to read the chapter
from memory. So cleverly was this
done that not one person present sus-
pected the..dry verbiage of the Nutmeg
state law was being translated into tho
fervid, imprisoned eloquence Of Solo
mon.-New York Sun.

that it may some day rise to the dig,

mine who also is much of a traveller in

there was a man with his wife and
family and baggage awaiting the train.

him that there was something missing.

Capturing o Tune.

It is probable that there is not
man, woman or child in Georgia who
never heard the song "Good-by, My
Lover, Good-by." 1t is a jolly planta-
ton ballad, used by serenading parties
in the rural districts until it has be-
come the midnight reverie of the sleep
ing citizens in many places. Duringa
recent revival in the Methodist church
at Milledgeville its tune was intro
duced to that sublime hymn, There
is a Fountain Filled With Blood"
with refrain, By and BY Well See
the King" Night after night this new
Interpretation rang out from the hum
dreds of throats that attended the
services, causing smile to those
who saw its comical side, until
its novelty wore off, and it was
establisheda IS fixture in the song SER
vice of the church. 1t is one of the
most popular songs of the church now.
and tune that would have been re-
garded as dissertation of the Sabbath
few weeks ago is now whistled on
Sundays in good taste.-Macon Tele-

The Rice Lily.

A lovely flower called the rice lily
grows thickly in parts of southwestern
Georgia. It is extremely sensitive to
the light. The blossoms fold up at
night, but open in the morning. At
night, while the lovely white blossoms
are closely EMBODIED in their purple
covering and the flowers are asleep, ii a
lamp is placed near them they will
gradually open and turn towards it.
If strong light is placed on one side
Of the case containing them, the half
Of the bouquet that faces the lamp will

is in the shadow will remain tightly
closed. Once q Week.

A DREAM OF THE PAST

Last night by chance heard a chilli
His evening prayer repeat,
shake me gentle, meek aud mf,d.~
He lisped in accents sweet
And In the twilight listening there
Once more seemed to be
Kneeltng beside my mothers chair,
My head upon her knee
Ifeit her fingers gently rest
Upon my curly head,
And on my cheeks kiss was pressed
When my good night was said.
But all too soon the spell was broke.
The vision passed away.
A votce called and I awoke.
But brighter seemed the way.
Long years have passed since mother dIef
And all friendless roam.
Nor can bridge the chasm wide
Through which my life has flown.
The cheek she kissed has lost its bloom.
The curly head Is gray,
But that sweet dream dispels the gloom
And lights my weary way.

The Atheneum Filled with the Elite
 and Beauty of New Haven to See
 and Hear the Man of Miracles.
 Promptly at 2:30 yesterday Dr. Damon stepped upon the stage and after a few preliminary remarks in which he paid 8 very high compliment to the ladies present, he gave as his subject 'The Physical and Mental Decline of the Race" The doctor handled the subject with masterly skill and gave evidence that he is 8 deep think CT as well as student upon all progressive subjects.
 At the close of the lecture many ladies went upon the stage and warmly congrat- ulated the doctor upon his lecture and wonderful power he exhibited over disease. Directly after the lecture Miss Fannie Damon sang beautiful solo in charming manner, which was warmly received by the large audience present. After the solo the usual free clinic was held, when sever- al seemingly hopeless cases were quickly l relieved of their suffering. A Mrs. Mo Donald had the rheumatism taken out of her arms in less than three minutes, while Annie Barnes had her hearing restored, so she could hear whisper; in about two minutes.

Don't Believe It! It is Not True.

It comes to my knowledge that there is
 a persistent effort being made to deceive
 the public into the belief that have gone
 out of business, and that Cutters Art
 Store no longer exists. It is wholly un-
 true! On the contrary, I was never so
 much in business as at the present time;
 my store was never so full of elegant
 goods at low prices-many of them bought in Paris during my foreign trip in July
 and August, and brought into port before
 the advance in tariff. am also fully stocked with the latest and finest etchings and pictures of all kinds, and with the most desirable mouldings for framing all sorts of pictures. Fur termore, I am selling at fraction of their value what remains of the goods had on hand when overtaken by my late financial trouble, all of which are valuable and de- | sirable goods, including many fine proof etchings. I want to turn these all into cash and desire visitors to ask for bar gains in this line. My new goods are
 marked at very low prices, which must be
 strictly adhered to. Don't give any ere
 denee to reports that I have gone out of business. EvARTs CUTLER. o14 3teod

STILES FOR SENATOR.

The North Haven Gentleman Nomi-
 mated by the Republicans of the
 Seventh District.
 Isaac L. Stiles of North Haven was nom- mated for senator by the republicans of the Seventh senatorial district in conven- tion at the rooms of the Young Mems Re- publican club in this city yesterday morn ing Robert o. Eaton of North Haven pre- sented MT. Stiles name.
 Reuben s. Tucker of Ansonia was chosen chairman and Theodore B. Beach of Sey- mour was elected clerk. William H. Brown of Orange, Captain s. F. Craft of Hamden and G. B. Clark of Derby were appointed by the chair g committee on credentials.
 There were several names used for can didates for the senatorial nomination. Dwight w. Futile of East Haven, repre-. sentative in the last legislature, was put forward. Orange had candidate in William H. Bryant, retired Congrega- tional minister, now of West Haven. From Derby the candidacy of A. H. Sherwood, the ex-postmaster, was presented, and Sey- mour had a candidate in s. R. Dean.

wharf to load them from into the scows, and thus carried them to the wharf. He built 1 ,500 feet of this famous wharf. He was respected as man of energy and skill and was useful citizen. Becoming in- volved in his latter days he fell into bad repute, but even then was man receiving considerable respect for his previous worth.
 The history of Long wharf is certainly very remarkable. At the present day 1t would be considered great undertaking to construct such wharf, but at the time | of it's commencement and for many years | subsequently, with the limited means of it's projectors, it was one of the great enter | prises of the age. The subscriptions made | from time to time shows the scarcity oi
 money during it's progress. Many are the
 the names of men of great prominence and repute whose names have been connected with the wharf in one way or another.
 Another fact of interest in connection
 with this wharf, is that in the year 179s
 the stores on the wharf were burned by
 the British troops; and that in 1890 nearly all the stores on the wharf was consumed ! in the great conAagration which destroyed
 over a quarter of million of dollars wortf | of property.
