The Liberty Bell.

ATLANTA, Oct. 9.-The ovation
which Atlanta gave the liberty bell on
it's arrival yesterday, unprecedented
in the history of the precious old
relic. was followed by another even
more imposing, if less spontaneous.
This morning when it was formally
received and installed mt the eXposi-
ton grounds, members of the Phila-
delphia delegation with the Atlanta
committee were escorted to the Fair
grounds by the militia. The bell was
drawn by six beautiful grey horses.
The crowd was so dense that it took
the efforts of the entire exposition
police to keep the roadway open.
Whenever the bell appeared there was
scream of delight from thousand of
children. The bell was formally re-
ceived by Mayor Ring, whose address
was responded to by Mayor Warwick
of Philadelphia. Gilmore's band
played the "Star Spangled Banner"
after which Governor Atkinson wei
coined the bell in behalf of the State
He was followed by President Collier
representing the Exposition Com
pany. Then Gilmorc's band gave
"DiXie" and the Atlanta artillery fired
Il salute of ID guns. School children
were then allowed to pass by the bell
and touch it which concluded the
days program.

And cinnamon roses and lilacs food the Dir

And close behind him see the curls Of Harry

A shrowd Re,olnder by Lincoln.

But among the various incidents of
the conference the world will probably
longest remember that recorded by
Alexander II. stephens. one of the
three commissioners, who, after writ
ing of the event, said that Mr.. Hunter
made long reply to the presidents re-
fusal to recognize another government
inside of that of which he alone was
president by receiving ambassadors to
treat for peace. "Mr. Hunter" says
Stephens. referred to the correspond
ence between King Charles /. and his
parliament as trustworthy precedent
of constitutional ruler treating with
rebels. Mr.. Lincoln's face then wore
that indescribable expression which
generally preceded his hardest hits,
and he remarked: upon questions of
history must refer you to Mr.. Seward,
for he is posted in such things, and 1
do not pretend to be bright My only
distinct recollection of the matter is
that Charles lost his head That set
tied Mr.. Hunter for awhile. NOAH

FAD FOR IRISH POINT LACE.
Every Woman Who Has Ingenuity Is Try
Ing to Make 1t.

Every Woman Who Has Ingenuity Is Try
Ing to Make 1t.
A woman who does not love lace is
the sort of freak that has never vet
been found, and her admiration of it
can not be called fad, for it is too
persistent and varies only in its de-
| gree of enthusiasm over the finer and
heavier weaves in proportion to it's
suitability for the purpose which she
has IN mind.
There is just now a revival of the
Irish point lace that bids fair to be-
come veritable craze before summer.
Everybody is trying to learn how to
make it, since the handmade product
sells fabulously high in the shops and
it's purchase is limited to the rich.
Marrow, Topped edged braid comes
by the piece for the purpose, ranging
| from twenty-five cents to one dollar
and fifty cents per dozen yards, and
linen thread and a needle, intricate
and beautiful work is done that rivals
the web-like lace of the old world
workers.
AS the latest luxury in lace demand
ed by fashion is an elaborate collar of
Van Dyke points, with smaller set
for the sleeves, the clever amateur
lace-malker is trying her utmost skill
upon these, and with such success that
one of them was recently offered a
large sum of money for such set by
leading merchant who saw it.
| These points are very handsome on
fancy silk waists, and are extremely
effective on small boys suits, la
Fauntleroy. A great deal of it is be-
ing made to trim sheer India muslins
for the coming summer, and the fine
kind makes handsome ends for soft
! null ties.
The exquisite center for the table is
made of linen quarter of yard
square, and around this a border of the
Irish point of the heavier braid, made
all in one piece, without any trim
mings at the corners. This, with
smaller squares set under the caraffes
and bonbon dishes, gives n lovely effect
when used on polished mahogany
table, the red wood shining under the
| lace.--N. Y. Herald.

+. Latham, of Niece, Florida. Previous
TO the destruction by fire of the old
Oak Lodge, year before last, It was
often visited by pair Of very sociable
and quite harmless wood-rats, who
nested in palmetto hut near by, and
made it their home until some cats
came into the family. The wood-rats
were big-eyed, handsome creatures
without the vicious look Of common
rat, with fne, yellowish-grny fur, white
feet and white under parts. Inasmuch
as they never destroyed anything savc

which they had to cut in order To get
them out of the eyelet-holes, they were
tolerated about the premises, and here
are some of the queer things they did.

here to see Miss Mornton and possibly
to change his life. But she was dead,
died soon after his capture, they say, of
a broken heart, as she had heard that
LATTE was killed by the privateers.
Then came the reckless career of the
pirate that interviewed between that
time and the war of 1919.
"He was pardoncd with his men by

service that Andrew jackson pro-

New Orleans he met the Miss Hanton

not old then and some say they mar
