A BRILLIANT EVENT.

Last night at s o'clock forty
couples gathered at the hospltable
residence of Mayor Reardon on
Ocklawaha avenue, where Miss
Maud Reardon gave a ''heart par

enjoyment by the young folks.

o'clock a bounteous table Of re-
reshmentS was set, and the guests
were invi, ed cut, who responded
with alaCrity, and did full justice
TO the dainty viands. The party
dispers cd at l O clock and ali were
loud in their praise OF Miss Maud

MARTI DIES HARD.

1t seems to be the general i'm
preston that Tarti is utterIv aban-
doned, but such is not the case by
any means.
There are fifteen white families
in the town, seven of whom are
Cubans; fifteen colnred families
two stores in operation, one cigar
factory, COCO public school un-
the able management f Prof
Washburne. with an average ar
tendance Of eighteen pupils.
The street car line is still in op
Grafton regularly, and there are
still twenty IF the soldiers, viii h
their captain, remaining in The
city.
Famili:s, both white and cotor-
ed, are constantly moving into the
place from the surrounding couc-
try, TO avail themselves OF the very
cheap rents.
The city water is still flowing.
and the electric lights are still III,
but the current is turned off. Two
hose carts with abundance If
hose have been placed in the reel
house, with hydrant wrenches and
everything in readiness SO that the
inhabitants may protect them
selves from fires.
In all probability the town will
be as populous in six months
and with a sclf-sustaining people
too.

PLANTS STEAMSHIP.

Mr.. Plants new steamship will
be launched at Newport News
January 80
This is a fine large ship, but
what Mr.. Plant intended to do
with her has not been announced.
He has kept it a close secret and
there is an air of mystery abou.
his purpose in building vessel
that costs S65o,ooO.
Such boat is not needed in
the Tampa-Havana trade, where
the Mascstte and the Olivette an
swer every demand.
This new vessel has passenger
accommodations for nearly 600
people on an ocean trip.
Mr.. Plant is evidently going to
spring surprise somewhere in
the near future, and when it is con-
sidered that the new ship is to
make twenty miles an hour, it is
evident that be will make lively
competition for somebody.
The name will not be given out
until the day of her launching.
Her draught is too deep for
most of the South Atlantic ports.
1t is presumed that she will be run
between Boston and Halifax. .-Ex.

THE VAGS' MATINEE.

The mayors court presented a
lively appearance this morning.
About a dozen tramps were ar
raigned for vagrancy. Marshal
Williams gathered them in from
the highways and hedges yester-
day. The men plead manfully for
their liberty and were profuse in
their excuses, but it did no good,
as the mayor said they must work
for the city a while before moving
on, and conse equently he fined
them So apiece, with the excep-
ton Of one, who, it was proven,
had employment.
In default of the 81 the tramps
were locked up and given some
thing to eat, preparatory to com
mencing their days work on our
beautiful but unsympathetic
streets. The mayor gave them
ample warning that if any one of
them appeared before him again on
any charge he would pop It TO
them heavy.

THE TRUE PHILOSOPHER.

In winter time he's happy
When he's pelted by the SHOWS;
In summer time he's singing
AS he gathers us a rose,
And somehow earth is brighter
For the happy way he goes!
If dark the tempest's frowning
And no stars are in the night,
He thanks God for a shelter,
And sleeps, and dreams of light;
And somehow earth is brighter,
For he ever makes it bright.
And so, in JOY and sorrow,
He goes his earthly way
And trusts God for tomorrow,
And does His will to-day;
And somehow earth is brighter
For that lesson; "Love-obey"

OF ALL THINGS IN THE WORLD.

A tonic is what nervous people require.
To impart strength into the nervous
organism is to insure its tranquility,
provided causes of unhealthful excite
ment are avoided. A medicinal tonic
that-like Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters-commands the unqualified sane
ton of the healing profession, ana
which Institutes general reform IN a
bilious, dyspeptic and debilitated condl-
ton of the system, is surely entitled to
a careful trial by intelligent people,
capable of forming due estimate OF
a medicine, from emphatic and often
recorded professional evidence in its
behalf. Not only are the nerves and
stomach inyigorated by the Bitters,
but the system is also endowed with
unwonted power of resistance to intiu-
ences in air, water or daily avocation
subversive of health. Prominently
dangerous among the first named OF
these is malaria, against which Hos
letters Stomach Bitters affords com
petent safeguard. Rheumatism and
kidney troubles are also prevented and
overcome by it.
