The GENEROUS BoY-One day a gentle
man saw two boys going through one of
the streets of New York. They were bare {
footed. Their clothes were ragged and
dirty, and tied together by pieces of string.
One of the boys was perfectly happy over
d tialf- witkeredss bunch of AeweFs which he
had Just picked up Ii Tie street. 'sf say
BLY, said he to his companion, wasn't
somebody real good to drop these iere Pc,
sizes jest where could find themf And
they're so pooty and NICE! Look sharp,
Billy mebby you'I fRd something bime-.
by" Presently the gentleman heard his
merry voice again, saying, 80 jolly, Billy
if here amt most half a peaclli and faint
much dirty neither. Cause you hain's'
found nothin' you may take the first bite"
Bill was just going to take very little
taste of it, when his companion said. HBite
bigger, Billy; Baebby we'n find another
fore long," What. q noble heart that poor
boy had in spite of his rags and dirt! There
was nobody for him to be kind to bnt his
companion in poverty-the poor ragged
boy at his side. But he was showing him
all the kindness in his power when he said,
"Bite bigger, Billy" There was nothing
greedy, nothing selfish about that boy.
"Bite bigger, Billy mebby we'u find an
other fore long.n Who can help admiring
the noble heart of that poor boyi would
rather have that poor boys kind and gener-
GUS spirit than have monarch's crown up
on my head without it. "Bite bigger,

ever tempted to be unkind or selfish to
your companions. '+-

Almost n Riot.

The stream of footmen, yesterday, in passing
along Union street. heard but little else discuss
ed except the great New York riot. Whatever
may have been the opinions of the various par
ties discussing it, as to its causes and results ALL
in passing the now famous Tea Hong of Son
ners s Spence, admitted that the crowd inside
clamoring for some of their choice and cheap
groceries looked very riotous. The trouble was
they couldn't all be waited on at once, and they
feared they couldn't get their share of the cheap
goods which have recently arrived from the
Eastern cities, where their unusual advantages
for purchasing enable them to offer here the
best and cheapest goods to be found in the
market. Remember the great Tea Hong, Union

ONLY Scveuty.ntne Years Ago.

We learn from history that on this day 10th
JULY, seventy-nine years ago, at the house OF
John Stone, in the town of Knoxville, the first
County Court Of Knox county was held. 1t is
recorded in these words: 1.-THE first court held,
was on the 10th of July. 1892 Present-James
White, Samuel Newell, David Craig and Jere-
miah Jack James White was appointed chair

About the same time, we also.fnd that roads
were ordered to be laid off from Knoxville re-

Yesterday morning, We are informed, while
lady who woe chignon, remarkable for its
size and artistic style, was pressing through the
crowd that thronged the Market House, she was
teo rudely jostled something was seen to detach
itself from meath her hat and fall, and simulta-
ne ously was heard the crash of broken crockery
ware and the swish of crinoline as female form
disappeared through the nearest door. The lady
had dropped her chignon. This was embarrass-
ing, very. In fact we can scarcely conceive
anything equal to it. Gong to church without
hymn book or leaving one pocket book at
home when missionary collection is being
taken up don't furnish the faintest parallel.
An adventurous bystander picked up the
mysterious hrsute female adornment when the
startling discovery was made that the article in
question-that crown of glory to woman--that
chignon-owed its symmetrical form to, what do
you suppose, gentle reader? why, saucer. con-
cealed within. The mysteries of the female toilet
are truly amazing, and we may well e1claim of
woman How fearfully and wonderfully she is
made! The man who sold her those hair-pins
should be prosecuted for damages, and we feel
confident that feminine jury would assess
them high enough Vive la chignon
