and an hour before the doors were
opened the flower loving public be-
gan to congregate. Two hundred
potted plants were ON exhibition in.
Guiding the ornamental plants. The
effect was very fine and all day crowds
thronged the room full at admiration
for the splendid exhibit. Fully $50
people visited the show during the
day and when the selling began at
A o'clock the beauties went with a
rush. Over 40 of the finest varieties OF
the flower were ON exhibition. The
principal varieties were Watan,
Nivens, Challenge and Enfant de
Dux Mondes, the last named being
half yellow and half white attracting
the greatest attention. Eai Asst

No Thuse.

Friday night meeting was held at
Municipal Hall to consider the advisa-
hility of thuse to celebrate the re-
cent victory. A large part of the resi-
dents of the town were opposed to
having a further celebration but those
from the country advocated a blow
out, After general debate it was de-
cided to thuse and an effort begun to
raise the money. This proving to be a
much greater task than was expected
the effort was abandoned. We con-
graduate our Republican brethren on
their good sense. The campaign is
over and while we have no objection
to the enemy cavorting over having
captured the larger share of the earth
yet post election thuse is of no ac-
count to any one. 1t only serves To
fan the animosities which are inevita-
bly, engendered by hot campaign and
which would prove more pleasant by
dying out as soon as possible. The
idea of kicking a man when he is down
is a relic of barbarism and we are
glad to see it is disappearing. Here's
hoping that we may realize all the
benefits that are to come from Nc
Kinley's election and that the slight
jolts we may have received during the
campaign may soon be forgotten.

about 10 years of ageand had been In
i'll health several months. Three OF
her children, all living in this com

id and Calvin Morris and Mrs. w. G.
Eddy. Her remains were laid away
on little knoll where she strolled in
her youthful days and watched the
sunshine and shadow move across tbs
hills and wales. There where SO often
in the days Of other years she listened
to the sweet birds as they sang on the
leafy branches of the stately tree that
now sways to and fro DER her peace
full grave. From this little village We
can gaze upon her windowless man
sion and say with the poet:
"We'll deck her grave with flowers
The rarest ever seen
And with our tears as showers
Well keep them fresh and green"

The girls started amid the shouts OF
number of boys and girls and fol
lowed by an enthusiastic crowd of
Republican girls with horns and
colors. The demonstration would
doubtless have ended well but for
the upsetting of the wheelbarrow
and the interference of the precep-
tress of the school,
