your sentiments of good will.
I'VE are holding our triennial must
cal festival this year on September TO-
IL. 49, IA and Is, and we hope we may
have the pleasure of seeing some of the
citizens of your city who will doubt

attach to our festival on this account

which an American work of such i'm

the three choir festivals.

when it is ready?
Il have the honor to be

ANOTHER IDEA.
Hon. Joseph II. Walker Presents Scheme
to Illuminate City Hall Clock.

Hon. Joseph H. Walker has plan for
Illuminating the city hall clock, which
would do away with much of the ex-
pense which has figured in plans sub
mitted heretofore. Mr.. Walkers idea is
that 1t is not necessary to illuminate
the entire face Of the clock, but only
such portions as will serve 70 show the
time of night. To this end he would
arrange an incandesoent lamp on the
end of each hand, which as they re-
voIved would indicate the hour. with
out the necessity Of a lot Of apparatus.

Of the Algonquin Club, which
rendered a luncheon in his hoaor.
Governor Wolcott extended the
welcome of the commonwealth

Howard Academy

The primary department of
Howard Academy held forth last
night at the opera house. There
was charge for admission, vet
there were fully 500 persons
present. The receipts were about
$50, which went to aid the organ
fund.
The pupils did splendidly and
only words of praise are spoken
of them.
The piano playing by Miss r.
l.. Welters, a student of the Tai
lahassee Industrial school, was
marked for brilliancy and finish.
She resides in Key West and is
on her way home to enjoy her
vacation.
A.prize of 81 was offered to
the scholar selling the greatest
number of tickets. Clarence
Robinson captured the same,
having sold over S. worth.
This morning the pupils Of the
Academy gave an exhibition of
their school work, and the visit
orS, white and black, commented
most favorably on their work.
Miss Bugbee of the Emerson
Industrial and Mission School
was present. She was urged to
make q talk and yielded. 1t was
a good one and left splendid i'm
preston.
1t is very evident the school IS
doing a good work.
Miss Bugbee said she was glad
to feel aud know that the work
of the school was commencing
itself to both the whites and the
blacks; her highest ambition
was to train the children un-
der her to make good, useful and
intelligent citizens, so that what
ever they did they acted from a
knowledge and interest in their
work.
The manner in which Profess
sor Hartwcll maintains order,
enforces discipline and compels
neatness and cleanliness is wor-
thy Of high praise. The grounds,
buildings, in and out, and the
school work attest this order and
system.
The exercises of the grammar
class will take place at the opera
house tomorrow night. Two
prizes have been offered of 81
ia ch to the pupils who will sell
the most tickets to the enter
tainment; price 10 cents.
A hearty invitation is extended
to the white citizens of Ocala, as
room will be reserved for their
seating.
