CnHnrfinp a EnE Girl

In one ofthe districts of this county there
is a girl, not ''fat and forty" but sweet six
teen, and the most complete specimen Of
weighty maidenhOod that was ever seen in
this part of the country, vet withsl, hand
some in face. and agile in step, remarkably
so far one of enormous proportions. She
had her admirers, too, and they we're nu-
merous. One of our nice young men was
smitlen considerably, and bis attentions did
not pass by unnoticed. He visited her f;e-
quently: on one occasion he proposed a
waikiki the dim twilight, he became senti-
mental, and many soft and tender words he
uttered as they walked alone that summer
evening beneath the outrageous foliage
that skirted the country road. He told his
love and when he was assured that his
words, OVERLOOKING with affection, had sunk
deep into an appreciative heart, be
embraced-not all-but a part of the gal.
A. this moment, when, as might be suppOs-
cd, there were two souls with but a single
thought, he heard voice but short dis
lance of, and apparently in close proXimi-
ty to bis adored. He walked aTouna that
form, and mirdbae dlctu, there was anoth-
er fellow counting her on the left side. The
young man who but few moment before
claimed the entire length and breadth Of
that huge piece of female loneliness, en-.
shrouded with sixty three yards of calico,
row upbraided her for her fckleness and
Inconsistency in thus concealiug the other
fellow, when she laughed and said: GAS if l
we're not big enough TO have two lovers at
once" The young man in question came
rapidly to tie conclusion thai he wasn't
success at c3urting fat girls, and is now
looking out for one that he can press to his
bosom ali il one day.

The Tipping Bill.

In explanation Of his vote on the resolu-
ton to inquire into the legality of the pas
sage of the tipping bill, Mr.. Tillman said !:
raised the question now raised by this
resolution several days before the tipping
bill came up. am now satisfied that if an
amendment or bill IN lieu, proposed by a
committee, can be adopted on the third
reading with only one reading, then there is
no reason why bill from the other House
may not be adopted in the same way, and
if the oUh ole bill as amended, is bill which
has passed the other House on three read
iDgs the Constitution will have been
complied with; but as the question of
amending in this way is doubtful one I'M
der the Cons titution, shall vote for the
resolution. A bill in lieu is an amendment
and if the amendment adopted by one
house is a bill which has been adopted by
the other, there is no necessity for sending
it to that House.
The question then is, Must an amend
ment in the nature of bill of lieu be pass
ed three times? l am not positive, but
concede parliamentary rules have never re-

Death of Iustice MiIstnsen.

Our entire community was greatly
shocked yesterday upon hearing of the
death of William Henry Wilkinson, Esq ,
ore of our best known citizens, who died
at his residence in South Nashville about
7 O'Clock. Squire Wilkinson was at his
Office on Monday morning last, but on
account of indispositi0n, had to return
home. He was Frustrated that day with a
severe attack of pneumonia. Thursday
night his condition improved, and hopes
were entertained of his speedy recovery.
Yesterday morning, however, at the hour
above indicated, he was raised up in his bed,
when he was taken very i'll and seemed TO
he in a fainting condition. He suddenly
dropped his head, and in few moments
expired. 1t is generally believed that apo
pIexy was the immediate cause of his
death.
The deceased was native OF Sumner
county, where he was born in 1872, and
was consequently 81 years of age. He re-
moved to this county many years ago, and
most of the time was in some position
which brought him directly with the people,
and perhaps was as well known as any
other citizen of the county. During his
resi- dence here he held the positions Of Dis
trict Const sble, Notary Public, City Mar
shal, Alderman and Councilman frequently
from his ward, City Recorder for several
wears, aud at the time of his death
an efficient Justice of the Peace of
the Nashville District and Notary Public.
During his municipal career, he also served
as President Of the Board of Aldermen. He
raised large family of children, all Of
whom are married, the youngest few
months ago. He was naturally kind
hearted and affectionate husband, an in
dulpent father and good citizen. He was
a chartered member of Smiley Lodge, l. o.
0. F., which was instituted in 1854, and will
be buried by the Order on Sunday next, the
hour of the funeral to be made known in
our next issue.
The Justices of the Peace of this CITY and
county meet at the Courthouse al II O'Clock
to-day to take action in regard to the death
OF this old member of the County Court.
The members of the City Council are re-
| Guested TO meet at half past seven O'Clock
this evening at the Council Chamber for the
purpose of making arrangements to attend
| in body the funeral of the late Justice,
who for many years held distinguished po-
sitions in the City government.

TEMPERANCE CELEBRATION.
Anniversary of Tenne see Council No.
70. United Friends OF TemDerauce.


80, United Friends OF Temperance.
Last night the anniversary of Tennessee
Council No. 80, United Friends of Tenn
perance, was celebrated in brilliant man
ner. Quite humber of Invited guests
and members Of other Councils we're pres
ent, and the occasion was one of muC b
pleasure. The anniversary address, by
DIR. G. w. Merrill was listened to with
much interest, for its character was both
entertaining and instructive. After music
by choir of beautiful ladies and handsome
gentlemed, remarks were made by Hons.
Mcfarland, Houk, Richards, Young, and
others.
The speech of Senator Richards was one
of much ability, and certainly presented ia
no ordins ry manner. He thought it great
shame that the church had not taken AZ
interest in promoting the cause of temper
ance. It we're wrong to think temperance
only the production Of man. 1t went with
religion and the gospel, and it would last
as long as the Bible ITSELF
In Wales the Good Templars were gain
ing ground faster than any other organize
ton, because it was fostered by church
inf uence.
The manner in which the speaker pro-
ceeded evinced thorough comprehension
Of the subject, for it is lamentable truth
that the church never Gctiuely seeks to ad-
vance temperance, one OF the brightest
| jswels of tue Christian character.
Mr.. Richards said that temperance was
| not intended to redeem only the worthless
young men from vice and dissipation. The
| best young men, the most talented can be
be2etilted by temperance organization.
There are, be said, some boys and gir.s SO
worthless that the d evil wouldD'G 60 out of
his way to secure. Temperance was made
to guard the good, to restrain the bad. He
concluded his remarks by indulging the
wish that instead of gamblers and drunk
ards to rule the people, sober, honest and
industrious men would control the c0untry's
| legisla ton.

The Death Bullet PieKces the Heart.
A few days ago, near Oakdaie, Roane
county, John Fritts and William Adams,
both young men, started from the formers
grocery to the above named place. Adams
being drunk, commenced talking about
some young man who had been visiting his
sweetheart, and said he had Knocked him
down three times. This led to angry
words, when Adams placed bis hand behind
him az if to draw pistol. While thus en-
gagged Fritts fired bis rife, the ball piercing
the heart of Adams, who, with a death
scream, sprang forward and fell lifel6ss to
the ground. Fritts has been arrested and
released on bond of $1,000 to appear at
the next term of the Roane Circuit Court.
Adams was recently from North Carolina,
