GAINESVILLE NOTES.

on the surface has given the citizens
no cause to run at right angles with
the law. 1t now seems that every one
has accepted conditions as they ap-
pear. Most places formerly occupied
by saloons are closed, with rent signs
as their only endorsement; but few
have had a gradual metamorphosis
from bar-room to cafe, where only
soft drinks are served.
AS anticipated in our last weeks ar
ticle, the city council has passed laws
in conformity with the state in regard
10 liquor traffic; but with no such reg
ulations as lockwood, Carthage, Muir
freesboro and other rural communities
have put ON the statue books. Rumor
has it, however, that the merchants OF
HopkinsYille will charter train to
carry those of this community, with
bibulous desires, to the fair Kentucky
town tomorrow night Saturday. 1t |
remains to be seen whether the same |
materializes.
One Of the quietest days in the his
tory Of this place was witnessed last |
| Thursday, the fourth. With the eX-
ception Of an occasional explosion Of
small fire crackers and the passing OF
electric cars of ancient pattern, one
would have thought himself in Gold
smiths deserted village. The only re-
minder OF the nations natal day was
the enliyening strains OF martial mus
ic OF the syncopated style with apollo
gies for the rhythm and harmony.
Clad in beautiful suits of blue, while
the leader was in all his glory with
brilliant scarlet, band hailing from
AllensVille, KY, caused those remain
ing in town to think of the original
day when the liberty bell was rung
and the birth of the nation heralded to
the world.
