Remenyi has perhaps the finest col- lection of violins in the world, in- cluding instruments ranging in value from $1,000 to $10,000, Th The ‘Titan,’ which the violinist uses in his concerts, is valued at $4,000. Of America’s most popular airs, Ar. Remenyi’s favorites are ‘‘Su- wa River’? and “Dixie. Re, ently he learned that “Unele Dan’ Emmit, the arthor of ‘Dixie’? was still liying, but in obsearity and poverty.

The society will probably decide to have one meeting place, and no refreshments will be served, contrary to the cus- tom in vogue in many of the educa- tional organizations. Refreshments add to the enjoyment of such meet- ings, quite naturally, but little, per- haps, towards attaining the ends for which the meetings are held. This seems to be a good rule, and might, with advantage, be inaugurated for experiment, at least, in other socie- ties that are not designed for pleasure. oe A prominent gentleman from May- field reports that the petition pre sented a few days ago toJudge Moss, asking him to call a special session of the grand jury for the ben- efit of the ravisher, Jim Stone, was not as extensively signed as reported, because in the petition was emhodied a statement that the petition was embodied a statement that the signers pledged themselves to do all in their power to protect the prisoner from summary execu- tion in event he is brought back. | It is reported that Stone has signified his willingness to plead guilty, pro- vided he isnot taken back to May-| field, although still protesting his in-| nocence, in order to save his neck. o- The first skating of the year, and the first of apy consequence for sev- a a ' je raft (COLORED si , Waving ron passed on np to the th fleat and will be here for repairs, Capt, Pete Johnson's partially new boat, the Peter Hounts, which has) been here for the past for months being rebuilt, will make ‘er first tie trip this season leaving here thie at- ternoon for Tennessee river to bring | out a tow of ties, Capt Pete has a good boat now, and, in tact, the best | for towing on this end of the!
