is coming TO Atlanta.
lie will be here in February, and his CON-
Ing will eliminate two matters that are
very interesting to the people Of Georgia
the completion Of the Grady monument and
the moving of the Hill monument.
Mr.. Doyle has been given the contract TO
make the bronze statue OF Mr.. Grady. lie
has been working on the clay statue for
some time, and mas ii nearly completed.
He comes 10 Atlanta 10 make the clay
bust of Mr.. Grady. He does this in order
that il may De criticised from day TO day by
the friends who knew and were familiar
with him. Thus he hopes 10 obtain the best
expression possible and 10 make the statue
as perfect as Il could he made.
The whole monument, with the statute OIL
bronze. which will be nine feet high Will be
about thirty feet tall, and will be one OF the
hanasOmest monuments IN the South.
The committee has not yet selected site
for il, but will do so before II Is completed.
When the head Of clay has been peri cted
Mr. Doyle will return with ii 10 New York.
and there complete the figure in clay. lie
will then make plaster cast OF IL, and from
that the bronze statue will be made.
He hopes 10 have IL finished and put In
place bv the last of next July, or the hrst
Of August.

mercial, with the proposed crusade OF the

against evil-dOers generally, but particu-
larry yiOlatOrs OF the Sabbath-day ordi-
nances, comes the case OF Citizen King, of
Obion county, in the United States District
Court, Judge +. ;. Hammond, sitting IN this
city. lie is charged with violating the Sab
bath by working in his fields on Sunday,
and during the hours usually devoted by
piOus people TO public worship. Mr.. King
is, however, as piOus as the most piOus.
He is, in his own mind, too, more Of a con-
sistent Christian than his prosecutors and
prosecutors, for he holds with the Jews
that the seventh day Is 1.-THE Sabbath Of the
LOrd.' that Christ instituted no change and
be is not willing to yield his conscience to
any but GOd-appointed ordinances. God
made the seventh day the Sabbath 'and hal
lowed it, as the decalogus declares, and
as there is no ecclesiastical law TO govern
in this country, and every man is left free to
follow the dictates and conclusions OF his
conscience in all matters or questions OF re-
ligiOn. Mr.. King insist. that he has as much
right To observe the seventh day as the gen.
eral run Of Christians have TO observe the
first day OF the week az the sabbath.
Besides, he does not contend in this
matter for himself alone. He is a men,

Two little girls of my acquaintance, writes
a correspondent Of the Youths Companion
were PLAYING Come TO see" Each had a
little PLAYHOUSE under the apple trees In
the rear Of little Nannie's home, and they
made pleasant, but somewhat ceremonlous
visits TO each other under the names OF Mrs.
President Harrison and Mrs. President
Cleveland. Their conversation, however,
was no. always in harmony with the char
acter and positions of the ladies whose
names they had assumed.
The dialogue ran somewhat like TINS
Mrs. Harrison said: II must get to work

gressmen are such awful eaters that MT.

we had to have them often. Dear me, I'm

"Well. there's one comfort, and that is
that Won amt likely ever TO have 10 live
here again." said Mrs. Harrison, eonsol-
iDgly.
SPerhaps Motive shall see about that"
said Mrs. Cleveland, stifhy, as she rose 70
ca. Rnt before she took her departure she
stated the original object Of her visit, which
set the two concealed listeners of into
shouts of laughter.

The laughter that followed this speech so
offended both ladies that they left the White

Dutch stiil call it gras-maand, meaning the
same thing.
April Is a Joyous but capriciOus month,
and in Olden times used to be represented by
a youth with a rattle in his hand. In more
modern times. however, ii is customary TO
iken the month to a maiden laughing and
weeping by turns. The custom OF sending
people on fools errands on the LIST OF April
is common IN every European country, and
is as old as the month itself. Oriental
scholars claim that it originated with the
HindOos, WAC have a huli-feast on that day.
50 the person that is made an april
Fool" can console himself with the thought
that the fashion is at least 1000 years old.
The custom of celebrating May day and
dancing around "A May-p0le Is almost as Old,
aud we find references 10 1t IN ihe Oldest
English books and even in some Latin ones
Among the Romans the month OF May was
sacred to Apollo, the god OF beauty, anc al
most every day was celebrated by them az
a festival of some kind or other.
The ancient festival of Flora, which the
Romans celebrated from April 18th TO May
ID. was probably the origin OF the May Day
dance. Ii was usual in Olden times to adorn
houses and gates and even churches WIN
flowers and green boughs.
