BETHANY.

The CITIZEN is never hailed with
greater delight than it is by the
people of Bethany, and none feel
more highly honored than they
when our beloved hamlet receives
favor from its gracious columns
Considering the hard times every
thing is moving on smoothly
enough Our High School is -four
ishing, and Prof. Clark is in buoy
ant spirits. Mrs. E. J. Beatty has
re-opened her clearinghouse, and
surely no one more deserves success
than she, for a more refined and
hospitable lady could not be patron
lied. Our merchant, the popular
and widely known Jim Patterson,
is growing fatter ana wittier every
day, and if he keeps on, he will be-
come the greatest "yarnist" and
loudest Laughter in the State. He
has announced himself candidate
for Congress. and we don't doubt
but that Ihe is competent, for we
heard him ask Surrey Sheriff. (col. }
the other day if he would advise
him to vote for an appropriation
for a lighthouse on the Rocky
Mountains to light the eagles to
roost.
Neill Hollon is hammering away.
He looks serenely happy in his new
shop, and we see him smile to him
self occasionally as he is doubtless
thinking of the event which will
shortly strike his name from the
bachelors list. Since the Jeter tri-
al, Sam Hollon and Dick .Vickers
stay indoors so closely that we
hardly know whether they jailed
Letter, or Jeter jailed them. They
90 about so little that they have
forgotten which one of their daddy's
boys they are. John McClary, who
bows and smiles so profusely behind
Patterson's counter, is practicing
for a professional singer. He i'll
succeed if there is anything in a
voice, as all can testify who were at
the prayey-meeting Wednesday
night. Whether John Stevenson
will ever smile again remains for
the future to reveal. Our young
Mississippian, E. H. Stevenson, has
been wearing chin whiskers two
years, and they are nearly half an
inch long. J. R. Jones was down a
few days ago. From the appear
ance of has chin, Elan will have
company in his misery. Mr.. Clark
is the most cunning person of our
acquaintance; he makes it conven-
lent to leave his new overshoes
everywhere he goes, so that he can
60 back after them.
In fact, times with us are lively
and interesting, with one exception,
and that is the recent resignation of
Mrs. Martin as music teacher, and
her departure from this place for
her home at Shelbyville. By her
sweet disposition and fascinating
manners she has won the admira
ton of all, and the friendship and
esteem of many. Bethany never
had better music teacher and never
will, for her superior can not be
found: and even yet, although she
is gone, the very air seems inspired
which she so often RECALLED with her
nightingale tones. Farewell, Beth
any says, a long farewell! May the
brightest smiles of heaven guide
you on your journey; may flowers
of the sweetest and most delicate
odor carpet your pathway; may the
sun never shine but that his beams
be fraught with happiness for you,
and at night when we gaze out upon
heavens spangled robe, we will Sc
lect a star-a bright and blazing
star-which, like thy virtues. will
never grow dim. KENO.

Alfred Reddiclx, Becoming En-
amOred of AnOther's Wife,
Kills Himself Because
She Refuses to see
Him.


Alfred Reddicl1. n youth of six
teen years Of age, committed sui
eide in Nashville last week by
shooting. For the past five years
the deceased has been a frequent
visitor ut the house of David Rees.
During TIE last two years of this
time the conduct of Reddick and
Rees' wife had been such as to give
rise to unpleasant gossip. Rees fl
nally forbade Reddick's coming to
his house at all.
The other day Reddick went to
Rees house, when Mrs. Rees en-
deavored to get him to leave, and
said she never wanted to speak to
him again. Reddick replied that
he would come when he pleased,
aad il she went back on him he
would kill himself or somebody else
With this he retired into a rear
room of the house and sent a ser
want for Mrs. Rees. She declined
Go enter the apartment, when he
took a pictol belonging to Rees, put
st % his breast and fired with fatal
effect The ball tore of the apex Of
his heart, and killed him instantly,
A coronor's jury returned a YER
dict that the deceased came to his
death from a pistol wound inflicted
by his own hand, and that Mrs.
Rees caused the deed. The woman
in the case is the mother of children
nearly as old as Reddick was ut the
time of his death.
