Fallen Leaves.


Adrift across the wind-swept street,
Like other waits we know.
These fatters of a summers pride
Into oblivion go.
The golden glory lately flashed
Against purple sky
Is scattered In the careless dust
For begars to deny.
So loses life its brightest charm.
In splendor shining high.
When the Dark Strangers chill Is felt
Before his mournful sigh.
Nor pride. nor pleasure shall proclaim
Their power TO enthrall
The hearts and hopes of men beyond
November's dreary call.
Here are the day dreams Of sweet May,
The rose-crowned Joy Of June.
The fortunes of July that bore
The seal of August's moon
Scattered and swept the way Of life
Along some cutters length.
Pathetic in their common loss
Poor rags Of regal strength.
Yet. pointing to another sky.
Beyond November's gray.
Bare arms OF opportunity
The wintry breezes sway.
The seasons come, the seasons go.
Ger ruins OF the past
Ambitious life unfuris its flags
And claims its own at last.
So spread your leaves in SUNNY spring
To keep its sweet delight.
Nor waste the joys OF summertime
BY day dewy night,
That when the harvest time shall come
Across your dying year,
Thro' somber skies your heart may fling
Its reckless golden cheer.

MASTER EDWARD WITT
WON PRIZE TURKEY.

Entertainment at Sacred Heart
Ball Last Night Well Attended.
There was a large number of little
ones in attendance at the turkey cut
ting" at the Sacred Heart hall yes
terday afternoon and the interest in
the proceedings was only equalled by
the fun which the children enjoyed.
An imitation turkey had been hung
for cutting and each child, after be-
ing securely blindfolded, was given a
knife and asked to attempt to cut off
the head of the turkey.
Some of the attempts came wide
of the mark, though the majority were
close to the neck of the bird The
neck was squarely and clearly sever
ed by only one of the contestants,
Master Edward Witt, and to him was
given the large live prize turkey
which had been promised to the sue
cessful carver"
At night the black-face and vaude-
vile entertainment was given and
again a large audience was in attend
ance. The programme was carried
out without a hitch and the apprecla-
ton of the good work of the perform
ers was shown in the generous APP
plauSe OF the auulGHCe. LdCL one VI
the MINISTRIES acquitted himself IN an
extremely creditable manner and the
entire programme showed by its eX-
cellence that much time had been
spent in perfecting the different num-
berS.
Song and sparkling wit made up the
principal part of the programme. The
songs comprised some of the latest
hits as we'll as some which had not
before been rendered in Savannah. A
generous interspersing of the old
time favorites made the programme
all the more interesting. The
end-men We're especially good and the
skits were fully up to the standard
of travelling vaudeville companies
which have shown here. The entire
day was a success in every sense of
the word.
Following the entertainment re-
freshments were served by the ladies
of Sacred Heart parish.
The proceeds of both entertainments
went to the building fund of the new
Sacred Heart Church. A tidy sum
was realized by the committee which
had the matter in charge and all are
pleased with the outcome of the two
entertainments.

RECALLED CUBAN DOLLAR
WITH A HISTORY.
Interesting Coin Received from
Cuba by MIR. H. b. Boyer.

Cuba by MIR. H. b. Boyer.
Mr.. H. B. Boyer, of the Savannah
Weather Bureau, has just received an
interesting coin, sent him by friends in
Cuba. The coin is one of the earliest
dollars issued by the young CUBAN
republic, and the facts connected with
its history make it all the more in
teresting. The issue has been recall
ed by the government, making the coin
worth considerably more than its in
trinSic value.
The Cuban dollar is smaller than our
dollar and considerably lighter. On
one side is the Cuban coat of arms
and around this are the words, Re
publica de Cuba. 900 Fino." On the
opposite side is a large Goddess of Lib
erty head, surrounded by the words,
"Patria Y Libertado. 1897. Souvenir. 8"
1t is in the word SOUVENIR" that the
interesting bit of history enters.
When the first issue of the Cuban
money was made, for the purpose of de-
fraying expenses of the new govern
ment, the word Dollar was coined
where souvenir" now stand. The is
sue was minted in the United States.
Owing to the similarity between them
the Cuban money was often taken for
United States coin. Complaints reach
ed the ears of the United States gov
eminent, and they at once ordered the
coin recalled.
This was done by the Cuban au-
thorities and the new dollar, similar
to the one now in the possession of
Mr.. Boyer, was minted. This coin was
also minted in the United States The
only change made from the first is
sue was that the word Souvenir" was
substituted for Dollar" This called
attention at once to the difference in
the coins and avoided all confusion.
Shortly after the new republic had been
fairly launched the Souvenir dollar
was recalled and the present coins put
into circulation. The recalling of the
first two issues makes specimens of
greater value than their intrinsic worth.
