The Town Council last night, in re-
Spouse to a petition from the Lawson
Bolts Chapter, U. D. C., passed an order
declaring that the play of g Uncle Toms
Cabin shall not hereafter be renderd in
this town. The ladies of Lawson Bolts
Chapter have in this matter ably and
promptly seconded the action of Albert
Sydney Johnson Chapter, of Louisville,
and the Mayor and City Council hesitated
not to give emphatic approval OF their
petition all of which will no doubt re-
ceive general and hearty approval.

MarH Had a Little Chill.

Mary had a little chill
Which gave her heaps Of pain,
And when she tried TO shake that chill
1t shook her back again.
It followed her to school one day,
Which was against the rule;
It made the children laugh to see
Poor Mary shake in school
And so the teacher sent her home
And babe her take some ile
To reconstruct her system and
To iQuidate the bile
What makes poor Mary have the cbills
And shake so awful bad?
Why don't she take a gross of pills
And wear a liver pad?

And molds his wares in figures rare and

The kind confectioner, in hope to please,
Tips off his candies with fresh coats of

The dark, unfathomed depths of mince-

Full many a soul the candy white as

Has hastened heav inward up the golden

But Mary laughed her ma to scorn
And flew it moro and more,
And in her innocence ne'er rocked
The fate that was in store.
One windy morning in July,
A gust came sweeping by
And bore that gaudy red balloon
I'd to the azure sky
The string Of that balloon was tied
To Mary's pinafOre,
And Mary climbed the stairway, too,
And no one saw her more.
