'Before tbo metamorphosis the hall was nothing but the common place room that r tate fair boards all over tbo country call "tho art hall" and tbii one was Blled with the dust and smells of ancient fairs. A ad. as a state fair is the most hopelessly, vulgar in ctitutioa we have fertnaately outgrown, so the art hall would' have been given up, decoratively, by any ono but an in genious woman with inspiration.

Their sharply pointed tips THE OLD TOWN ON THE RIVER. Flora Bullock. "The melancholy days have come, Tbo saddest of tho year." . - The poet Bhould have been n Nobras kan,and tho sadness would not havo Bit so heavy on his soul. He would havo thought and felt moro of the beauty, tho rcstfulness, the ceasing from labor that nature knows, the dreamy blue-white bazs in the air, the red sun set glows, and tho fiist kindly sugges tion of froit in the morning. Even tho glories of an apple orchard would appeal to him, unless, as cb.cs.rfu! people have alwayB tuspectsd,he was at. the timo a diepeptii! or a victim of malaria. In this part of GoTb country tho season just beginning calendar wise is so beautiful, usually, that we nil fool as if we could turn poets for the nonce and road our titles clear to greater famo than falls to the share ot tho author of tho melancholy linos. Yet expression is cot easy, and still to ths end of timo words are inadequate. The old town on the river bisks peacefully amid its vonerablj treos in the softeued sunshine. Every morning old Sol must molt away the long wind ing fog-wisps that lie grayly in tho val leys, but the hills ara free at evening to catch his last red gleams. Tbo trees havo still tbeir sober midsummer dress but already they have drunk of a softly falling autumn rain, and have shivered a littloina broez? that whispers an old story to them. The B'g Muddy crawls along it is almost three-fourths sand bars cow and udds a white beauty to the scjno if you are far away from and above it. I stood on an eminenca today and looked down on the city of treeB, 1 wonder if tho iniugurator of Arbor djy did not havo his hand in tho nuk ing of this beautiful grove, then out at tho river, u-roas into Iowj, down info Missouri, and all around at tho yolhw corflielJsand Btraight-rowed orchunb of my own Nebraekt. Kearney point, where onco tho old fort stood, but wboro now tho tolton ot paaco, tho cross on a Catholic church, is lifted, lies to tho south of the city and just at its bapo.is tho approach to tho rod bridge spnnniDg tho sand-burs, and tho river, when thuroin any. Thoro is toll to piy if you walk acrojs this bridge into Iowa. "The only town in Nebraska that Iiiib a history."
