month, will be handed out for collection.
And please remember that promises to

for Taxes" nor an eliminate acquaintance
with your collector" neither one or all OF
them, will furnish money to defray the
expenses of our County, carry on our
Schools, or relieve our State of her present
embarrassments. And further, you must
not expect me to ask you for your Taxes
because may see you frequently. This
notice is all the warning needed, and all
that will be given. You may say you can

Art I'm Knoxville.

Yesterday morning we visited the studio
of Lloyd Branson, the talented young ar
fist, whose almost precocious genius has
been hitherto noticed by the press of this
city and throughout East Tennessee, and
found him busy at work. The subject on
his easel was female head, whose beauti-
full features were being transferred to the
canvass by his skillful touches, and whose
brunette style will be an admirable foil to
a sunny haired beauty which adorns the
walls of the room. sEs9gfI ssafb fsTff
He has just completed another copy of
the Recording Angel" which is in every
respect equal to his first effort. Young
Branson's forte is portrait painting, but oc-
casionally he dashes off landscape which
would be. suitable for any parior. His
studio walls are covered with portraits,
among which we notice an exceedingly
good one of Mr.. J. A. Rayl. He has the
happy faculty of delineating in the most
natural attitude the portraits of children,
and in none of these has he succeeded bet
ter than in that of little son of Burrel p.
Flenniken, which should be seen to be ap-
preciated. A visit to his rooms will well
repay any one. E1Af qEE GELfH.

More About the Taylor Gun,

The New York Post, after witnessing
its working, says of the Tennessee Mitrail-
leuse: l-s<f ~ fE lad H - 81
To say that the gun is designed to be as
nearly automatic in its working as is pos
sible, conveys the principal idea which the
the inventor says he aims at. When the
magazine is adjusted, the gunner, should
he desire to open fusillading fire upon an
advancing foe, simply turns the crank and
jerks the lever upward and downward at
the close of every twenty-four shots; and
the touch of a screw and single jerk of
the lever will pour fourth broadside of
twenty-four shots sweeping space right
and left of twenty four feet at two hundred
yards distance. The gun was well tested
in its recent trial, and the rapidity with
which it was loaded, fired, cleaned, reload
ed and fired again appeared marvellous to
the lOOkers-On. A target at two hundred
yards distance was completely riddled at
low range, and the piece being elevated, the
balls were seen to strike the water nearly
a mile away from the portico of the hotel,
where the gun was planted. ~ s...5t
The inventor, who expresses himself
well satisfied with what he has produced,
intends to improve upon his idea, and a
gun of the new pattern is now being man.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: 1 have just seen
an earnest call in your paper on me to be-

ent of Knox county. ] am obliged to the
writer for his appreciation of my abilities
in this direction, though certainly over
rating them. think it very questionable
whether am the man for the position /; at
any rate should hesitate at the threshold
to signify my willingness to accept it. The
duties involved are exceedingly delicate
and important, and no man should strive
to assume them presumptuously. TO per-
form them acceptably and efficiently, re-
the work that is hard to find. Too many
are governed by the salary, or the fancied
ease of the position, and, therefore, unfit
for it. 1t must strike your mind, as well
as that of every citizen in Knox county,
that the cause of popular education is too
sacred to be tempered with by plodding,
phlegmatic and selfish aspirants to the Of

and beyond the reach of such inefficiency.
He who takes it, therefore, should be man
of clean hands, heart and soul engaged in
it, prosecuting it for the love Of it and
christening it as one of the greatest bene-
factions ever bestowed upon our race.
Now, don't fill this ideal. There are
some, perhaps, who do Out of that num-
Der the County Court should select the one

doing so they will perform most grateful
service to the children of Knox county.

frankly say that am not a candidate for

A CHECK TO THE POLITICAL SPECULA-
TIoN.-Governor Hartranft, of Pennsyl-
augured unfavorably of his administra-

the ring politicians who depended upon his
allegiance. The stand he has taken against
special legislation and the lobby interests
generally brings these precious fellows up
with round turn. One Tuesday he sent
consternation into the camp of the specu-
latOrs who have controlled law-making in
that State so long, by veto which disposes
of more private jobs probably than were
ever contemplated by any one act of a leg

marrow Escape From Being DrOWne0.
Yesterday afternoon, about four o'clock,
Mrs. Harvey Ryan's little girl, seven years
of age, while playing in q boat in the riv-
er, just below the piers Of the new bridge,
fell out and came very near being drowned.
1t seems that the child reached out to get
hold of block and lost her balance, fell
out on the upper side of the boat. The cur
rent Immediately drew he'll under the boat,
and when next seen she made her appear
ance on the lower side, she sank again,
and next rose near the second boat, when
the current again drew her under this boat
also. A young man by the name Of Dock
Jones, employed in Parks mill, was
luckily on q raft near by, and up
on seeing the child fall in immedi-
ately rushed to the rescue. and ar
rived on the spot just in time to dive un-
der the second boat and bring outthe child
in an almost lifeless condition. We will
not attempt to describe the mothers Joy
when her darling child was restored to her
bosom by that brave young man.. and
doubtless her relieved heart poured fourth
blessings upon his head. He certainly de-
serves credit for the cool and daring man
ner in which he risked his life to save the
life of another. When we last saw the lit
tie girl she appeared to have entirely re-
covered from her fright, and seems to have
sustained no serious harm, but it is to be
hoped that it will teach her lesson to be
more CAREFUL in the future. 49,. 49,.
