Which Singers Malic. Do I think there aie many such fraud¬ ulent excuses? Ye3, lots of them. What is more, many a minor performer bears the brunt of a hitch or failure to shield the leading performers. It is an old say¬ ing that a bad workman blames his tools. It is a good deal that way with singers and musical performers. I remember a case in point when the great Nilsson was tho real culprit. She sang here just lie- fore the great fire in a concert of which 1 was the director. A flutist had to play an obligato accompaniment to an aria which Nilsson was to sing. With char¬ acteristic egotism she refused to attend the rehearsal. At the performance she sang in an entirely different key to that which the flutist had practiced. There could lie but one result, and that a fail¬ ure. Nilsson threw down her book in a fret at the feet of the terrified flutist, who was pulled over the coals and roundly condemned by tho audience. Poor fellow, lie was not to blame; it was Nilsson's fault, A few days later she was to take part in the production of • “Tho Messiah.” 1 told Max Strakoscli, the impresario, that I should insist on Nilsson’s presence at the rehearsal or not lie responsible for a break in tho performance. In this case she came like a lady, and everything went off smoothly. It requires a good deal of tact to get along with such peo¬ ple. Some prima donnas are the em¬ bodiment of gentleness anil courtesy so long as you stroke them the right way. When you stroke them the wrong way the fire flies.—Chicago Times. Lincoln’s Merciful Nature. Mr. Lincoln was by nature singularly merciful. The ease with which he could be reached by persons who might profit by his clemency gave rise to many not¬ able scenes in the White House during the war. Upwards of twenty deserters were sentenced at one time to lie shot. The warrants for their execution were 6ent to Mr. Lincoln for his approval. He refused to sign them. The commanding general to whose corps the condemned men belonged was indignant. He hur¬ ried to Washington. Mr. Lincoln had listened to moving petitions for mercy from humane persons who, like himself, were shocked at the idea of the cold blooded execution of more than a. score of misguided men. His resolution was fixed, but his rule was to see every man had business with him. The irate commander was into Mr. Lincoln’s private office. soldierly bluntness he told the that mercy to the few was cruelty to many; that executive clemency in such a case would be a blow to military cipline, and that unless the men were made examples of the itself would be in danger. “General,” said Mr. Lincoln, “thero are too weeping widows in the United now. For God's sake, don’t ask me add to the number, for, I tell you plainly, I won't do itl” He believed that kind words were bet¬ ter for the poor fellows than cold lead, and the sequel showed that he was right. —Ward II.

Oar attention has been calls ed to the fact that the Atlanta Con slitution aud the Griffin Sun have in their weak way attempted to describe the magnificence of the occasion: bow futile these attempts were may be judged from the fact that the soci ty reporter and fashion editor of the News, who were dispatched to the scene of the disaster,were just able to file their separate reports last night. Perhaps they had just recovered from the effects of tlie “varied and deli eious refreshments”—and possibly the fashion editor had not fully recov ered. The society reporter describes the tout ensemble of the affair briefly but graphically as follows: Did they have a Leap Year Party? Well, yes, I should say they did. Americus and Chicago can’t “hold a candle” toil. From the diawing clear down to the housing of tho last carriage in its stable it was simply— “chic.” The names of the gentlemen were drawn from a hat and you held the one you drew until a bidder sufficient iy high offered to take him Irorn you, and then took in exchange her es cort and as much boot as you saw proper. Sometimes the fair purchaser saw hopeless bankruptcy staring her in the face and the coveted beau was left with a sigh to the tender mercies of an envied rival. As usual the ladies called for the gentlemen and the night being in tensely cold, hot bricks and small muffs found their way into the car riages to keep the delicate and thin ly clad boys from suffering. Long e‘er you reached tho festive scene, the friendly lights sent forth a cheering glimmer, bidding each guest welcome to the “Lewis Man sion,“ which for many years has been noted for ifs hospitality. Inside its spacious walls inspiration was not lacking. The deep green of the floral decorations, the mellow light from the glimmering chandeliers, the soft murmur of sweet music, the sparkling eyes of merry maidens, the pleased faces of handsome men. all had a tendency to disperse the doubts of the grandest skeptic and the coldest critic gradually began to thaw till he was surprised to find himseif keeping time to the strains of the “Lanciers.“ In tne pauses of the dance refresh meets varied and delicious were served by Mrs. W. C TDoks, Mrs. H. C. Horne. Mrs. E. J. Flemister and Mrs. JohD Moore—Mrs. John B. Mills making Lor graceful self geDer al agreeable. It was near three when the last fellow reached home and laid Lis tired head on bis downy pi] low, wh'-re sweet dreams seemed to mingle proposals, refusals and ac ceptances till in one confused but charming jumble. The fashion editor Landed in his lengthier manuscript with tho air of one who has done himself proud | and possibly it is ail right, though some of it sounds a little strange.

Upon our loyalty to our town de pends its growth and prosperity. Each city and hamlet has its advan tages. A loyalty to those advantages is its life. First we must in our trad ing ai d buying patronize the trades and busines in our city instead of go ing to neighboring or distant towns. We are obliged to do this, because if our feiijw citizen is doing his duty by us he is patronizing us in our busi ness or calling. If the clothing racr chant goes to another city for hjs stove?, the hardware man is justified in going to the other towns for dry goods.
