GKO. D. LVMMIS. Various theories are being put forward in the case of George Lumrnis, who yesterday killed himself.

His sister from Centerville, wil' arrive here tonight. The remains are at the Harris residence in the First ward. The funeral will in all probability be held in two days.

The other day Thoman J. Maoumrray went for Hamilton dude in tbe following manner: "So thai Is your chief ambition, la it, to be the best drewed young man in the city and nothing more? Now, young man, it's a great thing to hare nice clothes; but it's it far greater thing to possess the moral courage to wear clothes of a quality that will be in accordance with your income. It's a great thing to be able to glisten iu society circles, and bo trained to speak your words like a parrot, and to talk infinitesimals, and show how little you know about anything except the strut of a dude, tho cut of a coat or the flavor of a poisonous a great thing to he qualiliea to giggle like an idiot over nothing and to act the fool on general principles; but, young man, it's a higher accomplishment to be able to exercise a little common sense occasionally aud to converse intelligently upon those subjects of universal interest upon which the average workiugman, who makes no pretensions to culture, can speak sensibly and entertainingly. It's a great thing to be as well read as the workingmen of America are today on the leading topics of tho times. So just apply vourself to study for a season, aud maybe youM knew something useful after a while.

Let the faint, glimmering light of a single idea shoot athwart the arid waste of your barren brain and perhaps you will ultimately arrive at the conclusion that however desirable nice clothes are they are not everything. You are young and inexperienced now, but bravely plant both of your feet into the soil which has produced great maybe you'll develop so as to become an atom in the orld of matter and by and be entitled to a decent Christion burial after the sands of your mortal existence have run out and you have glided into the silences of the beyond where the dude, let us devoutly pray, is an unknown quantity." A bartender in one of our local resorts was asked recently what class of drinks were consumed by Hamilton people. He replied: "Of course I sell more beer than anything else. Beer seems to be the favorite beverage with Hamiltoniaus. The desire for mixed fancy drinks seems to be ended.

Most of my customers take theirwhiskey the cocktail still retains its hold on public favor. When a travelling man from the East strikes this bar, he puts his valise on the floor, tips his plug hat back on his head and asks me for either a julep, a cobbler, a fizz or a sangeree. When ginger ale was sprung first, the great drink WAS gin and gii-ger ale, and I often have call for 'whiskey with ginger ale on the I sell more ses of whiskey and beer than 1 do of wine."
