a Happy Birthday PARTY.

Wednesday afternoon Miss Joseph
inc Bullock, the thirteen year old
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. r. b. Bull
lock, entertained about twenty-five Of
her young friends at birthday party.
Little Miss Josephine makes a charm-
ing little hostess and her guests spent
the afternoon most happily. She was
assisted by her mother, Mrs. F.. l..
Carney and Miss George Smith.
One of the pleasant games played
during the afternoon was throwing a
bean bag through a gaily decorated
hoop. Suspended from the hoop was
silver bell. The children were re-
quired to stand about ten feet away
and throw the bag through the hoop
without touching the bell. In this
contest Miss Katherine Carlisle and
Master George LOOney won the prizes.
Later in the afternoon the guests
were taken into the dining room,
which was very prettily decorated
in pink and white. The cakes aud
ices were also in pink and white and
needless to say this feature of the
party was greatly enjoyed. Each
guest was presented with basket Of
bon bOns as a souvenir.
Miss Josephine was the recipint of
quite a number of lovely little BIRTH
day presents and in every particular
the party was a success and the
friends of the little hostess wish for
her many more happy birthdays.

a Temporary Disappointment.

The Gainesville Sun says:
THE swamp land claim to a portion
of property which has been in liti-
CATION in the United states land office
in this city for nearly year, and
which has required the services Of ex-
perts to arrive at a decision, has al
last been finally adjuiicatei. The
local land office has received from the
general laud Office at Washington, a
letter which bears the information
that the swamp claim has been can
celed. The land, which j. portion
Of Orange Lake, situated in Marion
and Alachua counties, was sought by
w. y. Camp to be transferred from
the possession of the United State- %
the state of Florida. in order that IL
might be purchased and drained FOR
grazing purposes.
Had this scheme worked successful
ly 1t would have proved "A Dig thing
for that section, a. it was understood
Mr.. Camp and other capitalists m
tended starting a cattle ranch"

The Florida newspaper folks are
the salt of the earth. 1t is simply
truth to say that a more generous and
chivalrOus lot cannot be found on the
globe. Nearly all through August
they gave Punta GOrda thousands of
dollars worth of advertising ana did
not charge a cent for it. The result
wss that Punta Gorda became pro-
disiou-ly famous and on August 25th
WAS The biggest place in ali Florida.
Wherefore We say, God bless the

Proceedings ut Lexington Yesterday
The Cumberlands at Nashville.

Lexington, Va, May 27.-The morn
ing session OF the Presbyterian assem-
bly, was devoted chiefly to the consider
alton Of the report of the committee on
foreign missions, made by DR.. Mar
guess, the chairman. DR.. ]. A. Wilk-
inson talked on China; DR.. O. o. Oyer.
on Corea; Rev. William NJ Morrison. on
the Congo. and Africa; and DR.. S. r.
Cannon. on Brazil.
The committee appointed to prepare
brief catechiSme Of the history Of the
church asked poStponenent Of their
final report until 1904.
Judge B. r Wexford, of Richmond,
was placed on the executive commit
tee on ministerial relief vice Dr. R. P.
Kerr, who has removed to Baltimore.
The missionary committees report
stated that the past year showed the
largest increase in native converts in
the history of the church and the larg-
est increase in the missionary force
since 1894. The assembly upon the re-
commentator of the committee called
for $3.50, 900 from the churches for mis-
sionary work during the coming year.
The executive committee was directed
to continue the forward movement
among the churches. Rev. J. O. Shell
by. of the Mexico mission, was grant
er leave to connect himself with the
PreSbytery of Mexico.
The report of the foreign mission
committee was adopted as a whole, but
the assembly gave some instructions
for the better conduct of foreign affairs
in general. Rev. DR.. S. H. Chester, Of
Nashville, was again elected chairman
Of the executive committee Of foreign
missions.
Nashville, Tenn, May 27.-The pro-
ceedings of the general assembly of the
Cumberland Presbyterian church, were
enlivened today by the presentation an
discussion # majority and minority re-
ports on the question of organic union.
The passage of that feature of the re-
port recommending organic untion was
practically unanimous and it's adoption
was greeted with great applause. The
only difference between the reports was
as to the manner in which the confer
ence delegates should be chosen. The
preamble to the report reads:
I'VE not with pleasure a manifest
tendency toward closer cooperation in
Christian work among all Protestant
denominations, and particularly a dis
position among ecclesiastical families,
which are allied IN doctrine and policy
to set aside their minor points of diff
ference and emphasize only things es-
Sential.''

Cleveland on Labor Day.

Knoxville. Tenn. May 27.-H. c. Col
lins. chairman OF the local labor day
celebration who wrote to ex-President
Grover Cleveland. for some suggestion
which might be made a feature of the
day has received the following reply:
princeton, n. j., May %.
Il have received your letter asking
me to make suggestion concerning a
desirable disply for your celebration
of labor day. L am very much inter-
ested in fair and peaceful relations be-
tween employed and employer. and de-
sire above all things that there should
be an end to the unfortunate quarrels
and misunderstanding which have so
often occurred between these elements
Of our social system.
L hesitate to make any suggestion
in the line which you present to me
but [ should be very glad to know that
your parade carried some banner indi-
cative of the laboring mans desire to
preserve peaceful relations with those
who employ labor. 1 wish it might en-
ter your minds, if consistent with your
situation, TO carry in your parade some
insignia which means peace: something
like a white flag of truce.
Yours very truly
