ABBOTT BOULEVARD NOW.
Washington Avenue, Palisade,
Changed in Honor of Mayor
John G. Abbott.

At the meeting of the Borough
Council, held in Fort Lee August II,
Washington avenue, Palisade, was
changed to Abbott boulevard, in honor
of Mayor John c. Abbott The direct
cause for the change was that there
is already Washington avenue IN
old Fore Lee, and this was liable to
cause irregularities in mail and other
deliveries as the borough grew.
Hence the change. There may be
some objections to this change, but
it was absolutely necessary, and the
action was entirely within the Jurls-
diction of the Council.

Retribution.

Out of the past there comes Shape,
Gaunt and somber and drear;
And pauses at the gate each day,
Bringing to fear
That after all there's a reckoning
A time when all debts are paid
For the bitter shame and the furnished fame
OF the pawns in the game we've played.
And, speaking him fair, as I meet him there,
He gravey returns my smile,
But I know be knows that Iii pay some day
The accounting after while.
So this stolid collector whom call Fate,
Diligent, tireless, stern,
Waits, unsleeping at the gate,
Smiling perhaps, but firm;
Seeking his right to a settlement
Of the prodigal waste we've made
Demands his due, insisting anew
That the debt Of folly be paid
And I shudder and fear as somber and
drear
He stands at the gate each day
And makes me to know, whether no.
Whatever excuse is made,
That after all there's a reckoning,
A time when all debts are paid
For the bitter shame and furnished fame
OF the pawns in the game we've played.

If cut flowers from the florists garden
in which a little mild soap has been dissolved
making suds, they will keep fresh much longer
than usual and will even freshen up won

If one wishes to keep roses in bud for some

around the bud and when ready for use, even
though several days after picking, the rose
will be found snug a bud as when first

"A Big Mass Meeting
"wednesday Afternoon
To be Held at City Hall at 8 O'clock

The citizens of Fitzgerald, Ben
HiIlcounty and surrounding section
are urged to attend a mass meeting
at the City Hall Wednesday after
noon at 5 o'clock to ascertain the
sen timent of the community on in
viting general encampment OF
the Blue and the Gray to Fitzger-
aid on March II, II and IL, the
date set for the Blue and Gray en-
campment for delegates to be held
in this city.
The Blue and the Gray encamp-
ment was fixed to be held in this
city on the above dates at the last
encampment which was held in
Orlando, Fla, but none other than
regularly elected delegates are in
vited to be present on this occasion.
OF these it is expected that there
will be only a few hundred at most.
The question to come up at the
meeting Wednesday afternoon, is
whether or not Fitzgerald shall ex-
tend this invitation to include all
the old soldiers, North and South
to meet here on the occasion named
and have a jubilee time. If this
should be done, there would probab-
ly be several thousand instead in
stead Of several hundred to visit
Fitzgerald on March II, II and Is.
In that case, it would be neces-
sary not only for Fitzgerald, but
for the county and the surround
ing section to take a part in caring
for this large number and to make
them happy while here. 1t would
be necessary to borrow several
hundred tents from the state and
spread them on the vacancies near

the Lee Grant hotel and innumeral
cots to be supplied in the tents and
vacant halls in the city in order to
accommodate these veterans of 60.
Of course, a large per cent OF
this number will be able to pay
their way at the encampment, but
hundreds who would wish to cCme,
will have to be taken care of free,
as it would be entirely out of place
to invite only the able ones to
come to visit us.
If it be decided at this meeting
that general encampmentshall be
held all the old soldiers and their
sons be invited, there will neces-
sariIy be a considerable expense
attached to the enterprise and this
feature will be discussed at the
meeting Wednesday and ways and
means will be devised to raise the
amount which may be thought
necessary.
If Fitzgerald can make this invi-
tation general and several thousand
members of the Blue and Gray be
brought to this city from all parts
of the Union, it will be the largest
gathering Fitzgerald has yet at
tempted and the splendid noioriety
we shall get from it will be well
worth the effort.
At the meeting Friday afternoon,
held in the League room over the
News Office, this meeting was de
cided upon and Messrs Marston,

their proposition is feasible and de-

be of inestimable benefit to the city

We have shown our faith in the
proposition by each making indi-
vidual subscription to the capital
stock of the Company and trust
that the citizens Of Fitzgerald will
cooperate with these gentlemen to
the end that they may be in oppo-
sition to complete their plans. "
1t is to be hoped that every citi-

project the same substantial sup

men of the committee.
