a day. He is a retired Californiaii

Now no man can possibly get the value of more than $2 per day out of hotel service, so that it seems a sinful waste of money to pour such amounts into the tills of hotel keepers.

The fact that the colored school children of Atlanta turned out to welcome Jeff.

TOE TR0TT1NO STALLION Mambrino Cyclone Jr. Which was brought frsm Ohio lust February a year ago by Smith & Jlurdock, took sick soon after bis arrival, und was not used for brooding purposes last season. The horse, howuvor, U is now in splendid condition, and is truly a Una animal. He is doacended from noted and choice stock on both sides, and his pedigree is tho best in the country. This bono will stand at the low ilgaie of $15 to insure a. living colt and will be let to a limited number of muros. This is exceedingly low for the quality of the horse, as any one investigating his pedigree will admit. He will be at Kogers' stable each Saturday and tbe remainder of the week will be on our farm on Suit Creels one mile west of tbe Cutright bridge. Smith & Muhikck.
