IN FLORIDA HOME.
/ We are all familiar with the fact
that our beloved friend and Junior
Warden, Mr. Joseph H. Hay, who en
tered into his rest some two years
ago, ligj in the .late years of his life
a home at Cocoanut Grove, Fla., where
lie spent part of each winter. Natur
ally Mr. Hay could not do without
his church, so he was among the first
of a little group of people to start a
Mission and erect a small but attrac
tive church at Cocoanut Grove. On
Christmas Hay Just passed a beautiful
quartered oak pulpit was put in place
and dedicated to his memory, the gift
of Mrs. Hay. It was a fitting memor
ial to a godly Christian man who was
never ashamed to spJak and to teach
the gospel of his Master, and whose
life tallied with Ills profession and
bis teaching.

items:
Valentine Party.
A very delightful evening was en
joyed by (he friends of Miss Chleo
Browne on Saturday, at her home on
Benhett Street, when she entertained
infrmally In honor of her cousin. Miss
Cora May Browne, front Pistol, Ga.
The guests assembled soon after
11 o'clock and after a sumptuous su|»
per games were enjoyed till a late
hour. The house was elaborately de
corated in .possum skins, and the
lamp, which gave out a delicious fra
grance, was gracefully shaded with
smoke-color. A new and very amus
ing game was played. It consisted
of the young men going out into the
yard and throwing bottles In through
pthe window. The object was If pos
sible to hit one,of the young ladies
who, of course, attempted to elude
them. Meanwhile they pretended to
be very angry and to call out for
help. When a window pane was
broken, the lucky young gentleman
scored one, the lamp was to count
three. This was accomplished by a
dextrous stroke from Mr. Fate Hall,
and the effect was most brilliant. He
also won the game by his success in
repeatedly singling out the guest of
honor. Judge Irvin, in awarding
prUte this morning, spoke of Mr.
Hall’s marksmanship in a few well-
Cliosen words, and awarded him the
first prize, sls or a scholarship for a
month at the City's School of Deport
ment. The guest of honor got the
Consolation, which wag very small,
hut most attractive.
This charming function leads us to
recall the similar and equally pleas
ant entertainment which was given
for Mr. Fate Hall on Christmas mgnt
at the hospitable residence of Mr.
Jonas Hogan. Like all really smart
parties it was kept out of the papers,
and only came out today. It seems
that on that occasion Mr. JonaH Ho
gan presented Mr. Hall with a lovely
pocket knife, whose sharpness he
demonstrated before the company.
Mr. Hall made a f#w appropriate re
marks when he received it, and car
ried it for some time In his shoulder.
The prize will he awarded to Mr. Ho
gan by Judge Eve.

BLIND TIGER LANDED
BY “MARKED’’ QUARTER
Man Had a “Friend Who Had
Plenty of Whiskey;” Price
35 Cents, So Dime Added.
A chrp under the 528th section
came before the recorder today. A
man on McKinne Street was arrested
for selling whiskey. It was a case
of Hip-Pocket Blind Titter. Lieut
Britt suspected the man. Meochan by
name, who Beemed to hantt about that
part of town, and sent an agent to
him with a marked quarter. The
agent stated in court that he had cot
spoken the first word to the fellow,
but that had asked lnm what
he wanted. He said: "Nothing par
ticular.”
Then the fellow said: “I've got a
friend who s got plenty of whiskey.”
"What's the price?” the agent ask
ed. s
"Thirty Xve.”
Whereupon the agent gave him
Lieut. Britt's marked quarter and a
dime, and the fellow pulled out halt
a pint of the article required. When
they went to Meechan's 'house, after
wards to arrest him, the marked quar
ter was not on him. He had turned
all his money over to his wife, They
got it out of her, however, and there,
sure enough, was the lieutenant’s
quarter--but the evidence was thrown
out In the hearing this morning, aH
the wife's testimony was not accept
able.
But the testimony of the agent,
who identified Meechan as the one
v.ho sold him the Vhiskey, was suf
ficient to convict him, and ho was put
under a S2OO or ninety-day sentence.
It Is probable the case will be ap
lieaM.
