LAUDERDALE COUNTY'S ELE-
PHANT.
Ripley News.

hlIltN NGAcs
We are glad to see that an effort is being
made to compromise the suit which has
been commenced against the county of
Lauderdale in the United States Circuit
Court at Memphis, by the holders of the
bonds issued by the county to the Paducah
and Memphis Railroad Company. The
basis of the compromise, as we understand
it, is about as follows: Gen. Humes, the
attorney representing the Railroad Compa-
nv and also the holders of the bonds, pro-
poses that if the Magistrates composing our
County Court viii sign guarantee bind
ing themselves to elect a tax collector at
the July term of the Quarterly Court and
proceed at once to collect the taxes neces-
sary TO pay off the bonds and interest as
provided for in the original contract, all the
suits will at once be dismissed and work
will be resumed on the road. A paper
embolving in substance the above is now
being circulated among the Magistrates for
signatures.

Government bonds are unchanged. IL
following are the quotations at 2sl5:

Tennessee bonds are without change, be-
ing quoted in New York at 50 and at 6S.
There is no investment demand for these
bonds here, and dealers are not disposed to
buy except at under the New York rates.
We suppose they would pay about 81 and 62.
Comptroller's warrants are very dull,
with no demand by Taxpayers. They may
be quoted at 94c buying and 96c selling.
Our local securities are all very dull, and
would not sell readily at quotations.

A "REMINISCENCES OF YOUTH.
The True Tale of Terrapin's Cara
pace.
Knoxville Press and Herald.

Knoxville Press and Herald.
Ex-Mayor J. S. Van Glider has re-
ceived, by express, from his boyhood's
home in New Jersey, a box, containing
a terrapin-the common Box Turtle
on whose shell was cut the inscription
in rude, boyish hand, -. H. V. G.,
1884," the initials of Mr.. Van elders
name, which with the date, were cut by
him on the carapace of that terrapin,
forty years ago, when an eight year old
boy. The terrapin was one of the
family of turtles that invariably live in
the woods, and don't 90 near the
water" Young John, when out ''nut-
ting" one pleasant October day, had
come across the terrapin, and, Selling
it, had taken out his jack-knife and
carved his initials and the date, on the
shell. 1t was boyish freak, and was
wholly forgotten among the innumer-
able other doings of his boyish days.
Recently boy of the next generation
of Van Gilders, also out ''nutting," in
the year of grace 1874, found that
self-same turtle, and, calmly taking his
jack knife from his pocket, was pro-
ceeding to cut his initials on its back,
when he discovered that somebody had
been there before him, and carrying
the terrapin home, the cabalistic letters
were identified as the work of young
John, who had left his New Jersey
home long years ago, and was now
sedate gentleman af honors and aflu-
ence in Knoxville, Tenn. The terrapin
was carefully boxed, and expressed to
Mr.. Van Glider, and now roams at
large in the spacious garden of his boy
ish acquaintance of forty years ago,
thousand miles from his Jersey woods.

ment here but just shade in the hopes OF
holders. The market was as idle as yester-
day or Saturday. Business will be sus-
pended altogether tomorrow on account OF
the merchants steamboat excursion and
