There was a tragedy in real life in this
city Friday evening. A youth to for.
tune and to fame unknown, invited his
best girl to attend the entertainment
Friday night. That evening he re-
paired to the abode of the young lady,
was ushered into the parlor by the lady
OF the house, sat down and waited for
her appearance, but though he waited
until after nine o'clock she did not
come so he went home. The young
lady got ready and sat in her room
awaiting the arrival of her escort and
was so chagrined and annoyed by his
apparent neglect that she retired about
nine o'clock. The lady Of the house
having been in a hurry to go to the en-
tertainment failed to notify the young
| Miss OF his arrival aud thus happened
the sad catastrophe. The next morn
ing the girl gave the whole thing away
by asking ii there had been reported
| the sudden death oi a young man in the
city the night before and how her host
ess enjoyed the entertainment. Ex-
plantations are now in order, but we
presume they will be forthcoming, the
dark cloud will be removed from the
HORIZON of heir dream-thev will fall on
each others neck and weep glad tears
OF Joy, and live happy ever after.
The famous Georgia-up-to-date min
strels will appear at the Webster Opera
