The curtain had rolled down on the last
act al Macauley's theater, says the Louis

the foyer had thinned out until only a few

II took but second or two for Mr.. Sell

would see the lady to her residence. And
as he glanced into the face at his side,

A FIy,s Gratitude.

Once while a man was eating his break
fast on a summer morning he saw a fly
stuck fast in the butter. says London An
swers. His first idea was to let it die by
the point of his knife. but being in the
main kind-hearted man, better thoughts
came to him, and he decided to save its
life. So this kind, good man tenderly re-
moved the fly, gently scraped the butter
off it's little legs, carefully wiped its wings
wlth his table napkin and, softly strokine
its little back, set it at liberty
That night the fly woke him. There was
a burglar! He was just putting the last OF
the family silver into his basket prepare
tory to carrying it away: but when he saw
the owner he dropped his plumber and fled
through the open window The fly, which
had followed the man down stairs. buzzed
triumphantly over the basket and then
settled confdingly upon his hand
And, looking at it closely, the man. by A
certain shiny look that fingered vet about
its body, knew that ii was the same fly
that he had rescued from the butter, He
had spared its life, and In gratitude it had
saved his silver
Thus we see that kind actions rarely go
unrewarded.

Speaking Of the suggestion Of Repre-
sentative Turner for President,
the Boston Herald says: THAT
gallant union soldier, Gen. John
NJ Palmer Of Illinois. dominates Repre-
sentative Turner Of Georgia for the pres
idency. We referred to Representative
Turner not long since as one Of the ablest
men in public life, and he is now vouched
for as one OF the most estimable in point
Of character. 1t is magnanimous in Gen.
Palmer TO suggest a confederate veteran
for this place, but we fear the country
has hardly reached the point Of forget
ting the feeling left by the war to the
extent that the fighter for the union has
overcome it,
The kindly manner in which the sus-
gestion that Mr.. Turner be nominated by
the democratic party for President IL
received in different parts of the coun-
try shows the high esteem in which he is
held. Mr.. Turner has the qualities which
compel respect. He has intellectual ability
Of high order, and he is so thoroughly
honest that no one. not even politieai
entire sincerity in any matter. He is not
a politician in the sense of employing a
politicians methods for acquiring popu-
larty or office. He is elected to congress,
term after term. because he is recognized
as a statesman, man who loves his coun-
try and who is intellectually big enough
and broad enough to comprehend the in
terests of the whole people and to work
for the welfare of the whole country. He
does not attempt to strengthen himself
with his constituents by patting them on
the back or by fattering them by paying
them special attention.
The Herald may be right in saying the
time has not yet come when an ex-con-
federate could be nominated for President
with much of a prospect for his election.
but we are sure that Mr.. Turner would
fill the presidential Office with such pa
triotism, fidelity to the public interests
and ability that no one could reasonably
find fault with him.

The Proposed Gwinnett Street Inn
prOVement.

prOvement.
The ordinance recently introduced into
the city council, providing for paving
Gwinnett street from jefferson to Gene
terry street, is the subject of considerable
comment. Would it not be better to pave
Gwinnett street lane, for the use of the
scavenger carts going to the crematory, so
that citizens living on Gwinnett street
would not have to suffer the nuisance of
all the offal of the city being carried by
their front doors? 1t would be much
cheaper and far better to pave the lane,
and let the street alone, if the only pur-
pose of the improvement is to furnish
good roadway for the city dump carts.
/ 1t is to be hoped. however that if Gwln-
nett street is paved as proposed, that it is
the initial step towards improving it to the
city limits. In fact, careful study of the
situation seems to suggest that it would
be better to pave Gwinnett street to and
beyond the water works, and not pave the
Louisville road. With the street paved to
the city magazine, and the road extending
northward from that point also paved, the
danger incident to driving alongside of
the Central railroad tracks for that dis
lance would be avoided. and good and
safe avenue provided for people going
from the city into the western part of the
county.
In view Of such an Improvement in the
future, would it not be well for city council
to make a roadway for the scavenger carts
through Gwinnett street lane. and leave
the paving of Gwinnett street to some
other time, when it can be improved
throughout its entire length?

Home Song.

From the Boston Transcript.
o, home is the harbor of rest!
The world has its gust and its gale!
But if we are anchored at home
Who cares how the norther may wall?
O. home is the harbor of light
The world has its shadows to bide;
If home has its fire on the hearth,
Who cares for the darkness outside?
o. home is the harbor of love!
The world has it's buffets and blows;
If home has its smile and caress,
Who cares for the clustering foes?
Yet, homeless-desolate word
That shivers the heart to it's core!
There are havenless ships on the sea
Wind-whipped to a treacherous shore.
And neer to the happy within
Does home seem more heavenly warm
Than to wearying wanderers without,
Astray in the snow and the storm.
0, home is the harbor of rest!
o, home is the harbor of light!
o, home is the harbor of love! tGt
Alas, for the homeless tonight!

There are some of such unrelenting
purpose that when they once register a
vow to do certain thing no human agen-
cy can cause them to alter their reso-
lution,' said Mr.. George Rice of Arkan-
sas TO the Washington Post.
Here IS little story taken from life,
every incident OF which came under my
own observation. The facts are truly
stated and can be easily verified. About
ten years ago, in a little southern town,
a man of middle age, had a difficulty,
and the former fell dead, pierced through
the heart with bullet from a revolver.
The blame all rested with the deceased.
He came of a highly-respectable family,
but had fallen into convivial habits, and
when drinking was very ugly. Time and
again he had made threats against the
man who killed him. Friends of the lat
ter told him of the threats, and beg
ged him to avoid a meeting, which he
did whenever possible. At last it came
to question of killing or getting killed,
and he obeyed natures first law.
"A jury would have cleared him be-
yond all doubt if the case had ever come
TO trial, but it never did. Instead he for
feited his bond of $1,000, and the cash was
paid over by my hands. The man who
did the killing left for parts unknown,
stand trial? Simply because the father
of the deceased Solemnly declared in the
presence of all his townsmen that if
John - was acquitted of Staying his
son, he would become the boys avenger.
He would kill his sons slayer. The old
man was never known to break his word.
His courage was of that desperate kind
that feared nothing. Nobody doubted
that he would do just what he said, so
l advised John - to clear out, and as
there had been enough killing he went.
Ten years have gone by, and the old
father has never relented. He stands
ready to-day to make good his oath. Ar
gument and persuasion are useless, and
a good man is forced into Punishment
as long as the other lives. He it getting
very old now, and his health is feeble.
His stay on earth is short, but until he
goes the sentence of exile stands
