For THE SCHOOL FUND.-"Lize" Sic
wart has chosen to defy the law and au-
thorities who are seeking to prevent her
from plying her disreputable and unwo-
manly trade of making drunkards, and
she is likely to find out before she is
through that the way of the transgress-
or is hard, and that it is not carpeted
for femenine feet. An action was com
menced against her this week in behalf
of the school fund, for selling liquor to
drunkards, minors, and others, with
damages claimed at $4,000, and as secu-
rity for the judgment, if one is found,
her property on Main street, in which is
located her doggery, has been attached.
The result of the case will be looked for
with some interest, for of all the deal
ers of the ardent in town for many a
day, this woman has proved the most de-
family INSCRIPTIONS and reckless. The
question really is whether she is to do
according to her own sweet will, or
whether the law applies to her as to
other men.

Well, Mr.. Editor, it has been a
long time since you had line from
my pen as a correspondent from our
crescent village. / have been more
than willing to share the honors e?
of the position with my friend Leo.
l will not attempt to bore you with
the common agricultural interests
of this community. l take it for
granted that in this respect we will
compare favorably with any portion
of Giles.
Mr.. w. t. Hobbs, our popular
railroad foreman, and hitherto a
quiet citizen, is having his heart
and hands full just now. He has
had fearful forbodings of trouble
for some time, and now iminent
distraction spreads its dark pail
about him. His enemies are le-
gions, and they continue to multi
ply. He has taken a thousand lives
and still runs at large-I mean of
tobacco worms. He has watched
the growth of his eleven thousand
tobacco plants with increasing in
terest and frightening countenance;
but, alas, in due time the worms
came and he began to kill. He
continues TO kill, but still they
come. They threaten to sap the
very foundation upon which his
prospects rest. He hasn't forgot
ten the history OF Fayette Brown
ing's tobacco crop in the same To-
cality, who cut it prematurely and
hid it to keep the worms from de
vouring the whole of it.
The barbecue on the 10th inst. in
the grove on the creek near by was
a very enjoyable affair to the most
Of the crowd present. The meats
were prepared under the super
vision of Messrs. j. NJ. Dickson,
ike" Barber and "Muke" Butler.
These gentlemen deserve credit for
the mastery manner in which they
did their work. There were many
persons present from other neigh
bOrhoods, among whom were the
Misses Lizzie and Ada Walker and
Dorah Smith of Pleasant Hill; the
Misses Tapp of Louisville, and
Misses Sue May and Anna Mason
of Pulaski. Maj. Roy was on hand
and seemed to vie with DR.. L. B.
Harwell in giving attention to the
young ladies. We staid until a
couple of wagon loads of rotten saw
dust had been spread in the shade
and Will Rhodes string band had
got in position, and until there was
a rush of beaux and bellies to the
scene of action, and then we rushed
in the direction of the village
They kicked up the dust till late in
the evening, and l imagine bar of
soap and Richland creek would then
have been in order They con-
cluded the affair with a set that
night.
Prof s. d. Clack has been right
sick, but am glad to state that he
is up again and able to take charge
of his school. Mrs. G. L. Hefner,
of Leighton, Ala, is up on visit,

sufficient funds to complete all but
the ceiling by the middle of Octo-

success to the zeal of those having

The game for the championship
of the world occurred at Cedar
Grove last Saturday afternoon.
Several persons went out from town
accompanying the Pulaski Bulleyes,
and some thirty of the friends of
the Coopertown Peewees were on
hand. The Bulleyes after a holly
contested bout, came off victors by
a score of Z to 4. The Peewees
play well, but the Bulleyes, being
gilt edged, are impregnable, "Cous-
in Bob handles a delightful taw,
but he can't give it that scientific
twist which characterizes the rifle
shots of the Bulleyes. Col. Sam.
Harwen opened some huge and de-
licious water-melons after the game
was over, for which the Bulleyes
return especial thanks. His son
Ed. is the best player in that team
The Bulleyes are not disposed to
boast, but they wish it understood
that if they are expected to beat
any other team anywhere else in
the county, carriages must be sent
for them, watermelons guaranteed,
and the opposing team must con
sent to double its players if they
can't interest the Bulleyes with an
equal number.

Sans Souci has been the victim
of that doggery established on the
hill-has been "dog bitten since
her last communication, but now |
think "Richard is himself again"
1t seems that the fates are strong

dence from this place. Such efforts
invariably end in controversies.
Perhaps | should desist, knowing
my inability to cope with two such
formidable opponents as cold Salt
ana his ally. l am duly grateful

l can appreciate compliment and
take it seriously when, as in the
present instance, it is not an ex-
travagant one. l agree with him
that it is not exactly gallant for two
men to attack zone unsophisticated
miss of SIXTEEN" but chivalry is out
of its sphere in a doggery; so pass
over that; but really, two to one
isn't fair play. We would advise
Old Salt to stand aside and wait
until he is attacked before he takes
up arms-let his "friend" fight his
own battles. He makes no attempt
to refute the charges made, but an

done in life? For instance, the

in our burg at present. The Misses

slightest foundation for a hope in
that direction, for we suffer here
from a male famine, as it were. 1t

Mr.. Sturdevant, the blind super
intendent, and half dozen pupils
from the Nashville Blind School
gave free entertainment at Antoi-
nette Hall last Thursday night to a
large audience. 1t was designed
to show the manner and methods
of teaching the blind and to demon
strate the great proficiency that can
be attained by these unfortunate
people in any branch of learning.
They read as well as seeing people,
cypher mentally or on a slate, and
they are all wonderfully proficient
in music. 1t was a very entertain
ing exhibition. Mr.. 5. is travelling
for the purpose OF hunting up blind
children and taking them to Nash
vile where they are educated with
out charge. 1t is one Of the most
benevolent works ever engaged in,
and it is doubly to the credit of this
blind man and to the State to thus
entertain the people and attract
attention to the blind. He said
he found two in this county. The
school is a state institution and is
supported entirely by the State.
