Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 17. The
street erf the city are crowded as never
before since the days of "Pap" Thomas'
occupancy and decorated from cellar to
crest in the richest manner. Mammoth
pictures cover the fronts of the prominent
building the banners nominating the
guests of the day for a second term are
thick as blackberries. The president and
all the party at Belle meade were early
astir, and after leisurely breakfasting
they made their way to the picturesque
little railroad station upon the place and
were in waiting with Gen. Jackson, their
host, who wore the badges and regalia of
the grand marshal of the day, when the
special train backed up from Nashville.
The governor and his guard, mounted
and brilliantly uniformed, and the mar
shal and corps of assistant marshals were
In attendance. The guests were driven
to the fair grounds, where members of the
committees and others of the reception
were presented to the president. At
8 :45 the procession formed and marched
to the city. They began to the music of
a presidential salute of artillery. The
route lav through the fine grounds of the
Vanderhilt university, and the pupils of
the institution were drawn up in front of
the university building, and as the pres
ident's carriage came up they received
him with cheers. Chancellor Garland
addressed the president, expressing the
pleasure it gave all connected with the
institution to welcome them. The stu
dents waived their hats and cheered
Drain, and the march was resumed. The
pnncipal streets of the city were trav
ersed, the populace of all grades and
conditions being out upon the side
walks. When the Maxwell House was
reached Mrs. Cleveland and her escort
alighted and entered the hotel, where
she held a receDtion to the ladies of
Nashville. The president and proces
sion made their way to. the capitol,
where upon the stand erected for the
purpose the necessary formalities took
Dlace. Governor Taylor's speech was
brief bat eloauent in the expression of
the hospitality of this section. Upon
conclusion of his address the president
was reconducted to the rotunda of the
capitol where he received the public.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 18. The morning
was cloudy, showing a possibility of rain
Trims are bringing in thousands of
strangers, yet it is estimated that 0000 cr
7000 of those here last night failed
find beds. The presidential party did
not retire until 2 o'clock this morning, it
having been found imponsible to get theii
ham through the crowds to their
rr n a
rooms earlier.
At 1 p. m. the president and vice-presi
dent of the exposition called and escorted
the nresidnnt and Mrs. Cleveland and
Postmaster-General Vilas to the cap
itol where they were received by Govern
or Gordon and visiting governors. The
supreme court of the state, members of
the governor's staff, United States offi
rials and inunicinal authorities and mem
bers of the legislature were presented to
the city's guests. This ceremonial over,
the distinguished visitors, escorted by
Jovernor V. A. P. Gordon. Senators
Brown and Colquit and by the visiting
governors and many other peopie oi
distinction, proceeded to the exposition
grounds. A national salute was fired as
the procession entered the gates of the
inclosure and proceeded to the speaker's
stand, where H, W. Grady, vice-president
of the exposition, in a brief but elo
quent speech extended a welcome to the
president.
The president in reply gave a brief
sketch of Atlanta's early history, rapid
growth and tarrible destruction during
the war of the rebellion. "I have lately
seen," he said, "evidences of the activity
and perseverance of the people of the
United Slates in the creation of prosper
ous and bustling cities, and in overcom
ing difficulties that are inseparable from
new settlements and the growth of new
cities, but it seems to me that an element
of heroism is added by a people who
view without despair the destruction of
all they have wrought, and begin gn
to build their waste places and who, in
spite of the greatest discouragement,
evince a determination to reach their
destinv. In tweoty-twe years the sec
ond Atlanta lias been built, incompara
ble, larger, more prosperous and fairer
than the destroyed Atlanta. Her place
as first among the cities of a great state,
her constantly increasing business and
her large manufacturing interests are ev
idences ol the courage and enterprise ol
her people. They may well be prond of
the work of their hands. Nor shall the
glory of their achievement le left to
their sole gratification. All of their
countrymen may congratulate themselves
that tiiis has been the result of American
enterprise."

Palatka, Fla., Oct. 19.-Judge Wm.

IN MEM0K1AM.
On last Thursday, Oct. 13th, sorrowing
relatives and friends laid to rest in Twin
Oak cemetry, near Turner, the remains
of Mrs. Ida Staples. The sad intelli
gence of her death startled the commun
ity and fell with crushing weight upon
her already deeply amictea lamiiy.
Everywhere in the vicinity of her home
her loss is deeply deplored.
From childhood until her death she
was ardent, generous and truthful. Nat
urally unselfish, she was ever seeking the
good of others, rather than her own, and
always possessed of a sanguine, happy
temperament, she delighted in making
others happy. Her highest aim seemed
to be in doing good. During her sickness
she manifested the sweet, patient disposi
tion which always characterized ber. She
had a kind word and pleasant smile for
all who visited her, She told me a few
days prior to her death that she knew
her family were alarmed about ber, but
she hoped unnecessarily. She spoke
touchingly of ber dear young husband ; of
bis tender, watchful love and care ol her
selfsaid the Saviour's love alone would
sustain him if she were taken from him.
How sad it seems to see one so young,
so full of promise and unselfishness, cut
down in the bright spring time of life.
Within a few brief weeks blooming health
and life were exchanged for cold and icy
death. To her hereaved family me ten
der our heartfelt sympathy. We will not
attempt words of consolation ; but let us
join with them in a sincere sorrow lor the
loss we an bubisjii m uer time. e s.uu
that our Ida's real self has received the
baptism of immortality, and when we
beheld for the last time on earth that
aomanly brow, calm and lovely in death,
those beautiful words of the Peri were
brought forcibly to mind :
"Go wing thy flight from startottar.
From world to luminous w oris, as isr
As the universe spreads its (I Amine wall;
Tskc all the pleasures of all the spheres.
And multiply each through endless years.
One minute ia Heaven Is worth them all."

Jndfo Catlla Benders a Decision oa
a Mo-
Uoa to Strika Oat.
Postlaxd, Or., Oct. 18. Says this
evenings telegram: liii morning
Judge Catlin rendered a decision on a
motion argued before him a week ago
yesterday, to strike out the petition of
Airs. Esther Holladay protesting against
the appointment of Joseph Uouaday as
executor and Geo. W. Weidler as admin
istrator of the estate of her late husband,
Ben Holladay, and asking for the ap
pointment of General Ingalls ss adminis
trator of that estate. The court sustained
the motion on the grounds that the nom
ination of Joseph Holladay is a part of
the will executed by the late Ben Holla
day, and under the statute Judge Catlin
was not satisfied that Joseph Holladay is
disqualified. Jndge Catlin held that it
seemed inconsistent lor Joseph uouaoay
to act in the capacity of receiver and ex
ecutor of the same estate, but that was a
matter for the other courts to deal with.
The court presumed to say that if Holla
day elected to continue to act as execu
tor he should relinquish the position xt
receiver. No order was entered, and the
aoestion as to whether or not Holladay
iould furnish bonds as executor will be
argued at 10 o'clock to-morrow morn
ing."

Portlasd, Or., Oct. 19. Says this
evening's Telegram : "In the matter of
the will case of the late Ben Holladay,
this morning Judge Catlin held that un
der the existing condition of affairs he
could not compel Joseph Holladay to
furnish bonds at present. Under this
ruling Holladay is permitted to hold the
dual position of executor and receiver,
despite the statement on the part of the
court that the two positions are incom
patible.
Judge Catlin made another order that
an allowance of $500 per month, to date
from the time of the death of Ben Holla
day, July 8, 1887, be paid to Mrs. Esther
Holladay, to continue until otherwise
ordered by the court. It is further or
dered that the money be paid to her
monthly bv the person nominated as
trustee, or by George W. Weidler,' out of
the trust funds of the estate, provided
whatever amount is paid the widow by
the trustees or receiver shall be a credit
on the above amount."

A TRICK OF SPEECH.
Tricks of speech grown into manner
isms often betray people into blunders
absurd enough. One instance of this
comes from a town in Maine, where
dwelt a man who was qualified to reply
to every uestion with the word "handy"
twisted' into some sort of s conditional
clause. It was even asserted that be
proposed to the lady who became his
wife by declaring he would like to marry
her "if she could make it handy," but
this very likely is a fabrication of invid
ious gossips.
Calling recently at a house, of which
the late master was lying unturned in the
Earlor, the visitor was asked if he would
ke to ee the remains of his old friend.
"Well, yes," he snswered. "that is,
I'd like to see them if you've got 'em
'round handy. If you haven't, it's no
matter." Boston Conner.
' ALL THE SAME.
"You don't mean to say that you had
to pay just as much for your pew during
the summer months wtten the churth

"Certainly."
"How ridiculous!"
"Oh, 1 don't know ; I don't begrudge
the money. I enjoyed the pew quite ss
well ss though I was in it ; better, if any
thing."
