Bob Taylor.


The crowded house, on night like
last Saturday, to hear Gov Robert l..
Tayhr's lecture, was striking proof
that this big hearted, brilliant man docs
not grow less popular with The peoble,
as the years go by. When he was
wished life term in the United States
Senate, in being introduced, the deafen
ing applause, showed that the hearts Of
the hearers echoed the wish. And his
lecture. 1t was one of the most won
derful things conceivable, Dazzled
with its luxurious imagery, bewildered
by its infinite variety, gladdened and
maddened by its wonderful finish and
beauty, the rapt souls and senses of the
audience reeled and swooned meath the
marvellous sweetness of this modern
miracle OF sentiment and expression
Bob Tayor's Lecture.
Mrs, Taylor was with him h.re,
and those who met her were charmed 10y
the Delightfully."- modest, womanly wo-
man, whose devotion to the Governor is
one of the most beautiful things con-
ceivable, Everyone fell in love with
Mrs. Taylor
mn
The Governors friends in this County
are legion, and are delighted with the
hope that at last the people will have
a chance in general primary to vote
for him for Senator. 1t looks like this
County would almost certainly give him
a big minority over amy maj in the
State.
The Tenth District met him en-
masse at the train at Ethrdge, with
flowers and assurances that every man,
woman and child of that splendid COM
munity was his friend and follower.
Governor Taylor in his own quaint
originality responded to their call, wish.
lug that they might live always, and
then the angels would get em.

speculation MS to the verdict those who
knew but little about the principles of
the mistic order prophesied that the

hang the jury while those familiar
with spriacipes said that the evidence
being against the defendant that the
three masons would convict him or
hang the jury until dooms-day and
they said guilty and all said 80 mote

scattering its sprays among the lace and
frills Of the young ladies, who were so
unfortunate as to possess them at that
particular time, and the young men
that had lost their heart, ON account Of
some winsome lassie who had donned her
sweetest smile for the occasion, and
among The aged who watched the young
people with silent content, rememberin
that "they were yonng once" Aa ex-
cellent program was rendered by the
children Of Fullers and several young
