THERE WAS A FEARFUL SCENE recently at an
execution in Fentress county, Tenn. The weight
OF the doomed man snapped the rope, and he
seized him, put rope around his neck, threw it
over the gallows and drew him up. He hung
there a couple Of minutes, when, attempting to
more he was seized and hosted, the blood run
ming from his mouth and nose, and his shroud
nearly torn off, This time the rope proved sum
cient, and the man was strangled to death. II
IL they could have got hold of them, and 1t could
not have been wondered at IL they had.

To the Public.-As there are certain merchants
who ridicule the idea of advertising, and say
that ii is only intended to make newspaper men
rich, and who at the same time claim that they
never devote dollar to such purpose, and vet
resort TO mean expedients to reap the benefits of
those who do advertise, feel it due to myself
and to my patrons to state that have no branch
store In Washington, and none save that of my
hoop-skirt and corset factory, at 40S 9TH street,
lntelligencer building. Ladies i'm search of my
establishment will please remember the name
and the number, Charles Baum, 40S 9Th street.
