calvacade of smoke. IL differed somewhat
from the recent day of mist in that the haze
was thicker vet OF dryer and different
hue Ii was not exactly fog. Ihe con-
ditions can be accounted for from the heavl-
ness OF the atmosphere, causing all the
smoke fron the various sources TO mug the
earth. and simulate in film over consider
able territory. The singular phase caused
many remarks during the day.
VIM HINTON, Of GAINESVILLE, has been to
Dwight, HIS, aad taken DR.. Kelley treat.
ment for drunkenness, and IS himself

saws that for many years he has been an

weakness induced him TO so to Dwight and
she accompanied him to the sanitarlum,
where he remained for five or SIX weeks.

He left GAINESVILLE almost total wreck,
and to-day no happier man walks the
streets Of our town."
