CRUSHED UNDER FHE WHEELS.
Death of a Degraded White woman
Near TRIbOtIa Station.
Tho Body mangIed Almost Beyond Re-
cOgniGiOn.

Tho Body nanRIed Almost Beyond Re
cOgniIIOn.
Last Saturday night, as the eastern
bound rat train was passing through
the notorious "swag," this side Of
Talbott's Station, a point where :hey
have been frequently bothered by oo-
structions on the track, the engineer
discovered what he supposed to be an-
other of these distractions, but was on
TO IL before he could check, and went
on without accident. When be stopped
to oil around at Morristown, however,
he discovered particles of women's
clothing on the engine, which con-
veyed the impression that some hu-
man being had been run over. The
freight train men were notified, aud
stopping at the fatal spot an investl-
CATION revealed the fact that the I'M
fortunate creature was a woman named
Alexander, degraded white woman,
who, it is said, had been parted from
her husband, and was living with
some disreputable negroes in that
vicinity, leading a life of repulsiVe
shame and degradation.
The body was found to be mangled in
a most horrible manner, and railroad
men inform us they have never be-
fore seen body so mangled, and that
it could not all have been done by the
run over. The head had been dragged
off into the woods by the hogs, two
mysterious holes were found in the
forehead, also, all the limbs were sew
cred, and one arm was not found at
all. A jury of inquest was summoned
over the remains and all the evidence
attainable adduced, but no verdict
had been rendered at our latest infor-
nation. 1t was produced In proof
that the last seen OF the woman she
left the cabin, where she had been in a
crowd carousIng and drinking, and,
with a bottle of whisky, started
towards the railroad about O'Clock
Saturday night. There is evidently
something dark and mysterious about
the affair If II was cleared up.

Household Economy.

The hOusekeeper or cook who studies
economy in the kitchen, can do so in
one direction by always using Doo-
ley's Yeast Powder. 1t will be found
a truly economical and valuable assis-
tant in baking biscuits, rolls, bread,
cake, of all kinds, waffies, mullins,
and most all articles prepared from
flour; and why? Because, in using
the Dooley Powder, you save in eggs,
in shortening, in patience, in every
thing and when the baking is done,
1t is turned out light, palatable and
wholesome, so that every morsel is
eaten up and no waste.

Notes and Reflections on Saturdays
GreaI Game

Notes and Reflections on Saturday
Great Game.
1t was quite humiliating, as matter
OF course, for Chattanooga to acknowl-
edge the defeat of their favorites, the
muscular Roanes, who have never
known defeat before, by our babies"
the little Reds, but it was forced on
them. The Times of Sunday, in its
special, vainly attempts to explain it
away with the silly assertion that one
or two of our boys, per chance, have
lived in Mississippi or Memphis. Too
thin, boys, that won't near
go down, the Reds are en-
phatically Knoxville Institution
and, if you choose to put
it that way, it aCaS Knoxville pitted
against Chattanooga, and the victory
was on that score. In the language of
Sundays Commercial, at is a great
victory for the little Knoxville boys,
and a notifying defeat to the hitherto
invincible ROsnes."
The Times special, made up mostly
in that office, made gross and mex
cusable blunder in saying that Multi
gan pitched until the sixth inning,
attributed to this. The fact is, Multi
gan didn't pitch a ball, but Dalton
pitched the first four innings and
Carly the rest OF the time.
The Chattanooga boys were shamed

beds, throughout, and after it vas

1t is known thatcOnsiderable money
changed hands on the result. 1t is
said that hackers of the Roanes came
from Chattanooga with it least S., OO0
They were quite blustery on
their arrival, daring anybody
To take them up, two TO one. They
soon found Knoxville men ready to
back the Reds, however, to any ex-
teut. Cleveland gave the Roanes all
their backing. Our boys bad consid-

Nashville was with them solid in

FUTURE GAMES.
1t is not entirely settled as to when |
and where the deciding game will be

The Temnerance Work.

The First NJ. E. Church was attended
by very large congregation Sunday
night, it being the occasion of a Union
Gospel Temperance meeting, and the
last, properly speaking, of the series
of meetings inaugurated by the Muir
ply movement leaders. Mr.. Leaven-
worth, after stay Of five weeks in
our city, has gone to Morristown, and
Mr.. Wenzell has gone to Athens.
They conducted themselves through
out as noble Christian gentlemen, did
good work and made many warm
friends. AS a result of their lsbors,
5000 signers to the blue ribbon Muir
ply pledge were obtained during these
five weeks.
The meeting was ,uducted by Rev.
VIM. Mckinley, assisted by Rev. Dr..
J. f. B. Mays, and interesting speeches
were made, besides by Messrs. s. Il.
Logan and J. a. RAyI. Several signers
were procured as a result. The burden
of the points made by the speakers
was that the good people in whose
hands the work is left, do not let the
interest lag if possible and use every
exertion to- sustain those who have
reformed in their efforts to keep the
pledge, and this is excellent advice.
Another meeting under the auspices
of the National Christian Temperance
Union, will be held tonight at the
chapel of the Second Presby terian
Church, which will be an experience
and prayer meeting, in which some
Of the recent converts TO the Murphy
movement will participate. Let there
