THE MONITOR,- - Jjt .■■ •-> * ■■■: .Tjgrfc- Fw ttituto Zvkbt Friday . cfom dollar a year. MomUj k McGowan. Eds. and Props. Mr. Cleveland is reported to l>e quits a sick man. He is at Woodley, his eountry home. Mr. Cleveland has intimated, thatenone but gold bugs need ap ply for positions under the pres ent administration. The silvsrites are-not in it with him. j J [* .;JTh. aesthetic Oscar Wilde, the leader of London society, has been found guilty of grossly indecent conduct, and sentenced to two years at hard labor in ■ the work* house. Bop. Walter Q Gresham, secre tary of state uh<yrthe~ present administration, died on last Tues dayof ncute pneumonie. Hon. W C Whitney of New York, is spoken of to All the vacancy. Last Sundays Athens Banner was out in an editorial against tha railroads running excursions out ef Athens. They call on the mer chants to atop it, by boycotting the road a that run them. This is lfke dating straws against the winds, excursions can’t be stop ped. We ar> pained to learn that our old frifend Jeff McClesky, formerly of Athens, and t son of Dr. Mc- CHiiiky, died in Atlanta last week from the effects of an overdose rf loudnum. Jeff was a jolly, goed fellow, and has on more than one qpcaaiou shown the writer favors lhat'he cannot forget v i It is thought that Mr. Cleveland is pulling the strings for a third term in the White House, and that hia mode of procedure will be op the “sound money" or single gold standard lin6. ** Tfe-is' also thought that should the demo cratic party declare for free silver that Cleveland will bolt the Jparty to become thd candidate of the gold men, thus making the fight outeide the party and will try te draw strength from all sources. Wjr. Cleveland is making himself pediculous. The Fort Lamar Com mencement. The Ft.' Lamar High School in oHarte of Pro?. R A MoMurry and ft’tfe, clossd last Friday even ing with an excellently rendered programme. Despite the enclemency of ,the weather there waa a large attend ance on hand for an entertainmeut given free of charge by the young people of the Fort. ; “Two much of a Good Thing” a drama,in three acta, waa in tended to be aide-splitting and it certainly succeeded. It gave the awkward oountrv oousin a few hints about how te do when he visits his country cous.na. This little drama consumed only HO minutes. Nevertheless it alone would hare been high compensa tion to ail preaent. Then came “On The Brink”, a drama, which would have made the hard heart of the drunkard aink within him, and to draw strong resolutions to rever inter fere with the wins cup while life lasts. ■ % After the exercise* had closed, in company with M. M. Gholiton, wa were invited to the hospitable home of Mr. Wyly J. Freeman, and of course accepted with pleas ure, where we were highly enter rsHietd. Sweet repose ia Mr. * ree man’s exoeUsnt country home fol lowed by Mrs. Freeman’s gted ta ble helped us to enjoy the follow ing day. Saturday was consumed by Prof. McMurry’s well trained students, m a prize dwlamation contest, sod Mrs. Me Murry’s music elasr interspersed the ex cellent musio which proved to all present that Mrs. McMurry bad imparted graceful musical talent to all her pupils. The prize was captnred bv sweet Jittle L'*is MeWhirter, who display ed wonderful elocutionary powers. Little Min McWhirter’s average wa 965. Those of honorable men tion were Messrs. Oecar Payne, t>6, Edgar Payne, 94f, and Mieses An nie Brown, 94*, Clare Wilder,oBs, and Blanche Wade, 91$. We heartily congratulate the. young peopie of Fort Lamar in their energy and consequent suc cess of an entertainment, and also Prof, McMurry on the manner in which he has conducted the school as shown by the advancement of his students on last Saturday. The entire assemblage dined at the academy and a more bounti ful dinner was never served than by the good people in and around Ft. Lamar. * On Saturday night we accepted an invitation to another of Madi son county’s most successful farmers, Mr. Waltoa J. Freeman. At hit borne we saw the'effects of energy,< such as stock raising, stsady work land good farming will accomplish. - •> David A. Mosclby M**sr Gso r g sad L J/Gr*ae, ef C*ri**ville, were visitingl J.
