st. Johns Church has been and is still
q faithful nursing mother. The present
Rector, j. Howard-Smth, d. D., is con-
tributing largely from the funds of the
Church under his charge for the support
present strength of the Epiphany is
mainly due, under Cod to the fostering
care and long continued interest taken in
it by the Rev. DIR. Thos. w, Humes He,
AS well as all the members of the st. Johns
Parish, will ever be remembered with
love by the members and friends of the
Epiphany, for their many kindnesses in
contributions and otherwise, and trust
they may find as willing hearts to give
them assistance as they were in bestowing
that same assistance to their needing
neighbors. The members and friends of
the Epiphany, though much embarrassed
from the beginning, have struggled nobly.
l will be remembered that the Church
was commenced without a sufliciency of
money to complete it without going into
debt. This debt, of course, had to be Ii
quidated, and the interest on the same paid
from time to time. Their continued eff
forts in this direction met with success, and
they were not alone able to pay the inter-
est, but have considerably reduced the
standing debt, so that now there remains
only about two hundred dollars to pay,

SABBATH SCHOOL.
The Sabbath School connected with
this Church is an interesting feature, and,
without doubt, much goods thereby ac-
complished. 1t now numbers 50 scholars,
nine teachers, n superintendent, Libra
rian, and Secretary and Treasurer, We
are always glad to hear of a Sunday
School being in Il prosperous condition.
Much, yea, everything depends upon the
moral training of the young and rising
| generation for the future prosperity and
glory of our country, and we never knew
of single instance where a young man
was n faithful visitor OF the Sabbath
! School and then turned out to be a mean
| mana curse of society.
We never enter an institution of this
| kind without feeling in sympathy with
the good work, and mentally asking the
Divine blessing to rest upon the officers,
! teachers and scholars.
REGULAR MEETINGS.
Sunday School meets at . a. NJ, mora
! ing services, 1000 a, N; evening ser

good is being accomplished in this part
of Gods moral vineyard. May the good
work continue, and thousands be added to
the Church of God.

chewing To ncro in Church.

We had fondly hoped that no other town in
East Tennessee, outside of Knoxville, was dis
graced by men thoughtless enough to chew to-
bacco in church and spit the juice over the
floor creating puddles OF saliva, through which
a goose or even hog would dsdain to pass.
But it seems Jonesboro' is plagued with t5q
same nuisance. "A Lady in n late number of
the Herald and Tribune, speaking OF the neat
Methodist Church just completed, says;
snow l have suggestion to make, and hope
it will be complied with. 1t is this; VIII the
gentlemen who attend this Church please leave
their tobacco at home. 1t would be very shame
full indeed to see so neat n Church soiled and
stained by gentlemen who are in tho habit OF
using the 'quid | lnowthat chewing is a
habit that gentlemen say they cannot abstain
from, but do believe and hope they can do
without the filthy weed during the hour OF
service. g
On behalf of all the ladies who are so unfortu-
nate as to be thrown into contact with the re-
suits ofthis filthy practice We join IA Lady
in her appeal. We accord to you the privilege
of visiting your ncghbor and soiing his Brus-
sells carpets with your filth, but do abstain while
in the Ii Que of God.

Last week we announced the reception
of IA club of fifty subscribers for the WEEK
LY CHRoNICLE from lockwood. Hester
day we received an addition of fifty-two
names to the list making hundred and two
subscribers from that place within week.
We presume, rs IA matter Of course, that it
cost some effort to get up this large club
and for the effort we most sincerely thank
our kind friends there. 1t only shows
what may be accomplished by an effort. If
our friends everywhere would exert them
selves in our behalf just one week, our
ALREADY large list would become three times

CITY SCHOOLS,
visit Of the Federal Grand Jury ca the
BELL IIOuse.


Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Baird, the en-
teipIisinS principal Ui the city free schools,
always having at heart the welfare of the
schools conceived the idea that Il visit Of
the Grand Jury, and perhaps few words
encouragement from some of them might
act n Il stimulant to the pupils and bc pro-
ductive of good. He accordingly rendered
the foreman, Mr,Rhea, an invitation which
was accepted, and the jury made their ap-
pearance about three o'clock and We're
shown around in the different rooms
except three, the time being too limited to
visit them all. They expressed themselves
highly pleased with the workings of the
system, and the foreman, Mr.. Rhea, made
short address to the scholars of each
room they visited.
They were especially pleased with the
Girls High School, (Which is being 50
ably conducted by Miss Grace Kimball)
and remained in that room during the
closing exercises of the week, consisting
of compositions, declarations, music, and
calisthenics, after which Mr.. Rhea address,

speech He stated that as girls they little

pass by with scorn all those that make use

that there We're but few young men who
would dare to incur their dispeasurc. He
urged them on to renewed energy in their
studies, and hoped that they would all be
active members of society, working for the
advancement of the human race, instead
of being drones and good for nothing.
He stated that petition was about be-

requested to enact a law making the seller

We have converscd with uUmber Of
farmers in this county, who speak in rather
good wheat crop. They say that much of
it Is frozen out. This is especially the
case in thin land or in land where Il corn
crop was raised last year. In clover land,
where the wheat was drilled or the ground
properly prepared, it is not 80 bad, When
