lie expresses qualification at the pro-

Chance llor Temple was present when
thirty.three of the young men read
short essays on the subject of road
making. He has given this subject
much attention, ard has had some
practical experience i'm this line, and
he expresses himself rs feeling no lit.

Thus 1t will be seen that the students

The custom of making and receiv-

ally observed by the ladies and gentle
men Of Knoxville than ever before.
The houses of very many of our citi-
Zens were thrown open and callers
were most Hospitality received by the
ladies In many instances quite a
number of young ladies cOngregated
and received together.
Quite good representation Of the
gentlemen Of the city were out. some
of the ladies received as high as seven
ty-five calls. Should we mention all
the complimentary things we heard Of
the ladies they would not enjoy their
Sabbath much, so we must forbear,
The gentlemen acquitted themselves
so far az we heard with credit.

/" The Snnitarlan."

The Sdnitdridn for January 1915 l.
on our table, and a glance only at the
table of contents is sufficient to war
rant an assurance to all interested upon
the subject OF Public Health that
this monthly still maintains Its stand
ing as a sanitary journal.
The first paper, by A. n. Bell, NJ.
D., upon the "Perils of the School
Room" gives US some important facts
which should enlist attention from
school officers and building commit
tees.
An address by Gen. Egbert l.. Viele,
Of New York, upon the f" Relation OF
topography to health, !" will well repay
perusal. Those papers were read be
fore the American Public Health AS
ISOLATION, at Philadelphia in Novem-
Der last. We can not further com.
ment upon the merits of The ,Sanitari.
an at this time, but heartily commend
Its perusal to physicians and all con-
nected with Boards of Health in our
American cities.

New odd ReIIo~s, Hail,

We learn that committee has been
appointed from the several Lodges of
Odd Fellows in this city, TO consider
the subject of building a new and ele~
CANT Lodge room. A number of sites
have been mentioned in connection
with the enterprise, but the commit
tee has made no report yet. The Or
der is very strong in Knoxville, and
amply able to build large and COM
modious hall, and to furnish it in the
best style. We are glad to see this
movement, and trust that it may meet
with proper encouragement and album
dant success.

hRryViIIe Itesns-An Attempt al sui
eide.

Christmas has passed in Maryville
as quietly as could he expected. There
was only few instances of such IA
milisrity that jaws were boxed and
eyes buDged up. Battles with roman
candles have been of almost nightly
occurrence much to the amusement
of participants and enjoyment of look
ers-oD.
Circuit Court has ben In session
since Monday, adjourning last Thurs
day. A large amount of business was
transacted and three persons convicted
and sentenced TO the penitentiary. A
remarkable trio, they are! Thomas
Carter, just boy, with bright, intel
ligent face, was sent one year each on
two indictments for larceny. 1t was
painful To see youth thus place a
blight on his life, which will always
remain with him, and that, too, before
he knows anything of its realities.
Robert Russell, very old negro man,
just ready To step into the grave, and
Martha Turner, white woman in the
midst of life, were each sentenced one
year in the penitentiary for living to-
gether as man and wife. The sen.
tence so wrought upon her feelings
that she determined to take her own
life, and was discovered by the Tailor
this morning endeavOring to swallow
some pounded glass. The Tailor was
to call in the assistance of
another prisoner and take the glass
from her by force. W.

A Temperance Exhibition.

Holston Hall Sons of Temperance
gave an exhibition on New Years eve,
which proved quite all enjoyable af-
fair. The original idea was to give
the exhibition on Christmas eve, but
when the audience gathered portion
of the floor gave way, and the enter
tainment had to be postponed. This
hall is situated about two miles from
the city, near Mr.. Dickinson's Park,
and has been encouraged much by Mr..
Dickinson's lively interest in their
welfare. The attendance Friday night
was the largest ever met in that hall
and all seemed to be entertained and
pleased. The exercises consisted of
dialogues and speeches, the following
persons taking part: David Thomas,
leader; J. w. l.. Gifiin, J. A. Petigo,

National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1875-08-16

IT SEEMS that the Rev. B. Peyton Brown,
of our sister city of Georgetown, allowed
his Christian meekness to be overcome last
week by feeling OF anger aroused by the
irreverent correspondence ofone ofour morn.
ing contemporaries from the Gaithersburg
camp-meeting. He, therefore, declared news
papers in general to be nuisances, or some
thing to the same effect, and without making
any distinction denounced the entire corps
Of newspaper correspondents now at the
camp. Mr.. Brown is entitled to respect
for his opinions only on account of ''his
CLOTH" but the fact that they have no
weight with his hearers is proved by the
popularity of TIE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN
IN the camp, and the eagerness with which
the faithful letters of our able correspondent
are sought by them.
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1875-08-16

THE READER of I'D. P s" letters from
Europe is involuntarily impressed with the
idea that their author is ashamed of the
country of his nativity and that the coun.
try should be ashamed of him. The sneers
at American customs with which they
abound, and the prsise-not always COM
plimentary, but nevertheless eulogistio-of
the English aristocracy with which they
IRE filled, prove conclusively that the
writer is constantly engaged in seeking
comparisons to the disadvantage of his
countrymen. 1t has remained for him to
discover that the House of Commons is an
orderly body in comparison with our
House of Representatives, Democratic
though the next one is. But D. P. was
always cynical, and it seems that his GYM
icism has carried him beyond the bounds
of his cooler judgment 1t must be re-
membered, too, that he demonstrated de.
cided preference for customs not generally
praeticed in this country on a. previous
visit 10 Europe. ..- r..-- IT.

THE New York World and other North
ern Democratic journals insist that the Re-
publican party is responsible for the "color
line in Southern politics. The Southern
Democratic journals, however, do not con-
ceal their responsibility for it and make use
of the acknowledged prejudice of portion
of the white citizens of that section as an
effectual argument to secure the defeat of
the Republican party. When they succeed
with these appeals they dc not hesitate to
boast of their achievement For example,
we copy the following editorial paragraph
from the Raleigh Sentinel:
"The Reidsville Ne1ns says that in Arson
county not a single nIite man Voted the Republi-
can ticket. Arson is now entitled to be called
the banner county of North Carolina Let the
pure, Anglo-Saxon hands of Bennett, her noble
stsndard-besrer, uphold the flag of white
supremacy at the head Of our Democratic
column"
