An Old Building Doomed.

Many interesting memories cluster
about the buildings known as the Hy-
gienic hotel, at 10 and Is Laight street.
New York city, now doomed to be torn
down to give place to an immense wooden
warehouse. The buildings were origi-
nally erected for residences for the fami-
lies Of George Schuyler and a son of
Alexander Hamilton and Col. Thorne,
in what was then the fashionable quar-
ter of the city about seventy years ago,
in the vicinity of st. Johns park. The
carriage houses of the high toned old
families stood until recently on the back
of the property. The queer old stone
trimmings Of the windows and doorways,
and its mahogany folding doors, its elab-
crate white marble jambs and the gen
erously large rooms, were reminders of
the time when land was much less val
liable than it is now, when flats were
unknown and the hum of business had
not reached as far up town as Canal
street. New York Sun.

Austrla,s Imperial Wedding.

The forthcoming imperial wedding has
restored a little life to the Austrian
court, which has been miserably dull
since Prince Rudolph's tragic death. Al
though the marriage of the Archduchess
Valerie with the Archduke Franz Saliva
tor on July 81 is to be solemnized pri-
vately at Ischl on account of the en-
press delicate health, the event will be
kept throughout the empire with con-
siderable festivity. Many towns are
founding charitable institutions in the
young princess honor, as she prefers
such useful remembrances to costly gifts
of jewelry. On the 10th the bride elect
renounced all her rights to the crown,
according to the rule for Austrian arch
duchesses about to be married. Part of
her trousseau and many wedding pres
ents have been exhibited at the Vienna
hofburg, and the dresses will be shown
during the next few weeks. All the
clothes are of Austrian manufacture,
and very simple, though exquisitely
made. The princess and her fiance have
now accompanied the empress on pill
grimage to the famous shrine of Maria
zell, to fulfil promise made to the en-
press dying sister, the princess of Thurn
and Taxis.-London Illustrated News.

his shoulder, passed, singing gay re-
frain which soon died away in the
distance.
Madelaine remained leaning against
the wall, with throbbing brain and va
cant stare. She did not feel the cool
evening breeze nor the drops that fell
from the trees upon her shoulders.
One sad thought absorbed her whole
soul: He viii come no more
Suddenly q violent chill shook her
whole frame and she re.entered the
villa, weak, broken-hearted and burn
ing with fever.
Ten days after this fatal evening,
Henry, shut up in his own room,
awaited the doctor The operation
had succeeded. He was no longer
blind, but it was necessary TO accustom
him to the light. For some days the
bandage had been removed from his
eyes. and this morning the doctor In.
tended to draw aside the thick window
curtains and allow him to see once
more the day, the sunlight, the glory
of the sky.
At length the doctor appeared with
M Nay. A powerful emotion possess
ed Henry. His father took him by the
hand and led him to the window which
he opened, saying, Lookl'
Henry uttered glad cry and en-
braced the whole horizon with long
gaze. Then his eyes sought the road
that led to the villa, as he thought, i
shall soon see Madelaine.'
At this moment he saw, at a turn in
the road, priest in surplice, carry
ing a silver cross. Then came the
children in the choir, followed by six
women who bore white coffin. Be-
hind walked young girls in snowy
robes, carrying lighted candles, and
last came long, sad procession. Hen.
ry felt a horrible weight upon his
heart.
Doctor he exclaimed, SIS this a
young girls funeral?'
'Yes. All! she seemed too beauti-
full to fall a victim to consumption.
Was it not strange.-she died playing
the Elegy of Ernst? Her name was
'Madelaine?' whispered Henry,
hoarsely.
Did you now her?' asked his father,
in surprise.
No. sobbed the young man, but
l loved her.

Profit in soda Water.

The druggists who sells soda water for
FIVE cents claim that there is no great
profit in it because ice is so dear, and peo-
pie are demanding everything but q
square meal. They make about three
cents glass on the plain soda with the
old fashioned syrups. The first soda
fountain ever put up only had four
Lemon. vanilla. sarsaparilla and
coffee-and they are the most popular
yet, especially vanilla. Seventy-fve per
cent. Of the people call for vanilla. Five
cent soda men who furnish ice cream in
the glass make mighty little profit, as 1t
does not take many glasses to use up 8
gallon. Then the cream bill is larger
than you would think. Still the sales
are SO great that we are glad as 1t is.
The ten cent fountains make at least
eight cents q glass. New York World.

Sickness-The Road Question ongratu-
lations-The Wheat Crop Damaged.
To the Tobacco Leaf. Chronicle.l

To the Tobacco Leaf Chronicle.I
The pleasant season was never be-
fore surpassed for sickness of almost
every character, and he who has
the care of them has but little time
for aught else, therefore my silence.
But must stop long enough to con-
graduate you and your many appre-
ciatlve readers also upon the very
wise consolidation. BY it we have
it now naultune IN parU0, and, taken al
together, a mutual benefit. So sue
cess to you, and we shall endeavor to
let you hear from this part of Old
Robertson oftener. We can't afford
not to be represented.
The almost unparalleled winter has
put us in doubt as to future results.
Anxious and many are the inquiries
now about the hitherto hattering
prospect for a wheat crop, whether it
is to be materially damaged by the
cold weather or not. And different
and varied are the answers. Some
think hopefully, others think that it
will be ruined entirely. Wheat is
the deadest looking thing out here
just now. And great deal of solic-
itude is also felt for the fruit crop,
some believing it totally lost, even to
the blackberry. Young clover is
also in doubt. There will not be
any volunteer clover left, we think,
beyond Il perad venture, as the
warm winter brought it up and
the cold snap cut it off. Business is
at "sea with out chart or compass"
up here, very little doing. Roads
are very bad now, caused by inces-
SAINT rains and travel. Our clever
road friend, II. j. Orman, has bought
an improved road ploW for our dis
trict. This means far better roads
each successive winter. Now we can
make our stock teams do more OF our
work and do it more effectually. So
much for young bloods at the helm
with the spirit of progress and to
improve upon the road plOw idea,
elevating the road centers. What's
the matter that we farmers, who all
have teams, can't haul gray and
actually metal our main roads after
we have them thrown up. A few
days hauling of each can do 1t and
have roads little less than pixies.
Measles, la grippe, whooping cough
and mumps hold high carnival over
the 18th district just now, and have
even stopped the schools, preaching,
and in fact, a good deal of business.
NOTA BENE.

Dat sowing will be later this year
than usual on account of the heavy
rains. Now is the time farming
should be going on, though but little
has been done in that direction.
Answer to the problem in the To-
BACCO LEAF-CHRONICLE of the 18th
inst. from Port Royal: A has seven
sheep and B has five.
Farmers thought the wheat was in
jured by the snow, but it is looking
green again and the prospect for the
crop is better. Rainy and cold
weather have been bad on the young
chickens this spring, as they had to
be Kept housed up, though there is a
prospect of large supply and chick
ems doubtless will be cheap.

Burning Plant Beds.

The farmers We're not half through
burning plant beds when the heavy
rains set in. or course no work of
that kind could be done during
the rainy season. Since the weather
has dried off the smoke from the
burning hills can be seen rising from
every direction. These beds will be
late, but if well fortified and can
vassed they will come in time. Far
mers are not aiming to plant large
crop. The planting intended will not
exceed that of last year under the
most favorable circumstances, and
should the wet spell be followed by a
long drought and swarms of tobacco
bugs, as usual after n warm winter.
the planting will be greatly reduced
this year. But farmers will lose
nothing by this, if they all get out
moderate crop and tend it well, an
other short crop will have a good eff
feet in advancing prices, while
large planting would still depress
the market and lower prices. So q
short crop will realize more money
in the end.

The wharf boat circles were made
somewhat lively this morning by
the arrival of the steamer B. S. Rhea
and K. G. Ragon from below. The
Ragon went down the river last
night and met the Rhea at Dover
for the purpose of relieving her of a
quantity of freight for Nashville.
The Rhea goes no further up the
river than this on her present trip,
and the R4gOn takes all the freight
for points between this stop and
Nashville, There was quite heavy
consignment Of goods shipped to
Ashland City and Pleasant View,
which shows that GAINESVILLE divides
that trade with Nashville. The
boats were both due to leave at
o'clock, the Rhea for Paducah and
the Ragon for Nashville. The Ra-
gOn was due to leave Nashville to-
day on her regular trip, but will not
be able to leave until tomorrow.
Quite a crowd of Robt. Henry's
friends were at the wharf boat
to shake hands with him. He is
now the clerk on the Ragon and
seems to be at home in his new posi-

Building Enterprise.

The outlook for extensive building
enterprises this summer is very fat
tering. One of our lumber dealers
remarked to the writer that he had
sold material for seven new houses
during the past week, and had the
prospect of selling eight more during
the coming week, and he was salts
fled that the other dealers and saw
mills had done as well or better. He
said it was now evident that at least
100 new houses would go up this
summer, and should the iron fur
mace company be organized for
building, that, with the effect pro-
duced by building the Dickson rail
road, would insure another hundred
buildings. Under the present out
look he estimated the new buildings
for the present year all the way from
100 to $50. The outlook Is indeed en-
couraging for GAINESVILLE. Business
men may find BUSINESS rather dull
just now, but that is nothing more
than could be expected with bad
weather, high waters and bottOmless
roads. They may, however, take
courage from the prospects and rely
on a good business season.

Horse Thieves.

The Springfield Herald notes the
fact that several mule and horse
thieves have been plying their
avocation around that city. A few
weeks ago Richard Chiiders, of
Springfield, lost a fine mule. The
thief brought the animal to Guthrie,
KY, and sold it to Henry Bigby, a
stock dealer of that place. Mr.. Big
by thinking it little under size for
the Southern trade, took it to Spring
field and sold it to parties working
on railroad fill near the town. 1t
was not long in coming to Childres'
ears that his mule was working on the
fill near the trestle just west of the
town. He traced the ownership
back to negro named Bob, who had
sold him to Mr.. Bigby. Bob was
arrested and is now in Jail. 1t is
surmised that through his confession
he may implicate a lot of white men,
who are supposed to do the engineer
ing and also attend to the finances.
Officers are now on track of the
thieves and it is thought that several
arrests will be made. The citizens
of Springfield have made up a large
purse to be used in Kidding the coun-
ty of horse thieves.

Beware.

Since the city limits have been ex-
tended people forget that it is against
the law to fire guns anywhere in the
new territory. Several parties were
arrested near the low red river bridge
yesterday for violating this
ordinance. The attention of the
sportsmen has not been called
to the fact through the
press, prior to this, and of course
no one thought it against the law to
shoot snipe in the city limits, espe-
cially the territory that has recently
been annexed to the city. Take a
note of this and act accordingly.
The police are bound to arrest you if
you violate city ordinance.

the Chronicle, that has heard the
clanking of arms in many a hard
fought battle, the veteran of many
an encounter, actually in his old age
has fallen in love with the bewitch-
ing and popular little favorite, the
LEAF, and taken unto himself her
to faithfully love and protect as his
wife; it makes us smile. Methinks
Bro. Ingram's influence has lnstilled
and inspired this Courtship, as he has
lately married himself. It's the
luckiest marriage of the season, and
| believe will be the happiest and
most successful. "The tide" has been
taken cat its flood" (since the waters
are so high now and will surely
