from Hon. A. W. Cozart,
Hon. A. W. Cozart, who lectured at
the Chautauqua here, was interviewed
by the Columbus Enquirer-Sun upon
his return home. He said:
“Gainesville is the loveliest little city
that I ever-saw. Its climate, its beau
tiful scenery, its mineral springs, its
cultured .people make-it the place of
places for a Chautauqua, an educational
center, and a summer report;- Th§
Auditorium of the Seminary and
Conservatory of Music, where the
Chautauqua was held, surpasses de
scription. Suffice it to say that there is
nothing comparable to it in the state,
except “The Grand,” in Atlanta. You
will get a conception of the music de
partment of the Seminary when I tell
you that twenty-five new pianos have
just been purchased. It is worth tak
ing a trip to Gainesville to hear Prof.
Wallace play on that great.pipe organ,
which is situated on the stage of the
Auditorium.

been in Gainesville several mouths,

the climate would restore his
health. He has been gradually
sinking, however, and his death
created no surprise.
Mr. Glover was one of the
brightest and most promising of
the younger members of the Ma
con bar.- He was born in Rich

Glover homestead, September 24,

The Greatest Heiress.
The greatest heiress in the
world is the baby Grand Dutchess
Olga, daughter of the Czar and
Czarina of Russia. Already she is
one of the richest persons in the
world and what she will inherit is
beyond computation.
The Czar’s will is the only law
in Russia, and he has absolute
control of all the money that can
be extracted by taxation or other
wise from his vast empire. But
he has also what is called private
property. This consists of the
Crown domains, including more
than a million square miles of
cultivated lands and forests, be-
noted for strict integrity of
character, amiability of disposi
tion and urbanity of jnanners.
These lovable traits soon won for
him the. confidence, esteem and
good will of all with whom be had
sociaLand business relations.
Under the constant strain inci
dent to the arduous duties of the
position he held in Savannah, his
health, which was never robust,
gave way and about two years ago
he returned to his mountain home
with the hope that purer air, the
tender nursing of devoted parents
and kind friends, would soon re
build his shattered constitution
and restore to his pallid cheeks the
bloom of health. But alas l a
complication of lung and stomach
troubles had made such inroads
on his system that all that medi
cal skill, assiduous and careful
nursing and a genial and reinvig
orating climate could do, failed
to slay theTlnsiduous progress of
disease that had seized with unre
lenting and inexorable grasp upon
a system peculiarly susceptible

tude and resignation, the subject

Just how the insanity expert looks at
shyness is shown by the following state-
xnent, made by Br. G. W. Kunz of New
York whose wide experience makes his
opinion well worth considering:
“Shyness is as much a disease as scar
let fever. It is recognized as a symptom
of dementia or melancholia, just as an
extremely strong willed person, or one

assertive; is regarded by physicians as a

such as a sudden feeling of fatness
and weakness on looking down from

a woman persists in looking under the
