AFRAID SHE'D BE KISSED,

We take this from the editorial col
umns of the Knoxville Chronicle. And
vet it isn't to be taken for granted that
the fellow did it, simply because it ap-
pears so to the Chronicle.
A man was once walking along one
road, and woman along another. The
roads finally united, and man and wo
man, reaching the junction at the same
time, walked on from there together.
The man was carrying a large iron ket-
tie ON his back in one hand he held by
the legs live chicken, in the other
cane, and he was leading goat. Just
as they were coming to deep, DARK
ravine the woman said to the man :: 1
am afraid to go through that ravine with
you it is lonely place, and you might
overpower me and kiss me by force.
eff YOU were. afraid of that, said the
man, 'fyou shouldn't have walked with
me at all how can j possibly Overpow-
er you and kiss you by force, when i
have this great kettle on my back, a
cane IN one hand and a live chicken in
the other. and am leading this goat l
might as well be tied hand and foot p
tTYes," replied the woman shut if
You should stick your cane into the
ground and tie the goat to it, and turn
the kettle bottom side up, and put the
chicken into it, then you might wicked,
" kiss me, in spite of my resistance. y
'SSuceess to thy ingenuity, o womanr'
said the rejoicing man to himself Il
should never have thought of such ex-
pedient."
And when they came to the raVine he
stuck his came in the ground and tied
tire goat to it, gave the chicken to the wo
man, saying, ''Hold it while l cut some
grass for the goat" then, lowering the
| kettle from his shoulders, imprisoned
the chicken under it, and .wickedly kiss
ed the woman, as she was afraid he
would. - >. -

From the Bristol Netcs we learn that
! Rev. A. d. Fadloek, of Grayson, Ken
lucky, met with narrow escape a few
days since. With his wife daughter of
DR.. W. N. vance, and child he had
been on visit to his friends in Bristol,
and, after spending his allotted time,
started to return by the overland route
On reaclsing Clinch river, in Scott coun-
ty, Va, he was told by some one plow-
ing in field near by that it was safe to
cross, but the recent rains had caused a
sudden risein the stream, and the tide
was too much for his light vehicle The
waters washed the horse from his foot
ing and overturned the buggy. Mr..
Tadlock, as the buggy went over, threw
off both of his coats and prepared for
the struggle before him. He caught his
wife under his left arm and struggled
for the shore which was some distance
off, Through rapids and over rocks,
seldom touching the bottom, he fought
his way. His wife and child were often
under the waves. Just before reaching
the shore, his wife who had displayed
presence of mind and o5eyed his every
wish, told him she could hold the child
no longer, and Mr. T. had to take hold
of 1t with his right hand Thus cum
bered, he reached the shore and pushed
his precious burdens up TO stranger
y who had been attracted to the scene.
The child was lfeless, but was soon re-
tored Mr.. T. returned to Bristol In
the round lie lost his pocket-book con.
tanning all his money and two or three
rings belonging to his wife

death he was q member in good

the widow $50, but refused to pay

now has. of owning al the property
n the world. Another corollary is,
tina. the bonded debt of the world
can never be liquidated in coin. For
these bonds are to fall due upon an
average IN thirty years: Ddriag.that
time the interest that is to accrue
upon them snot less than sixty biz
lions, or seven and half times as
much as all the money IN the world i
Another is, that the only way that
even interest can be kept down is
by paying it to them in property.
The money does not exist to pay it,.
When these facts are put together,
it becomes patent to every thinker,
that gold basis means wealth and
ease for the bondholder only, and
unconditional serfdom for the mas
ses. Reason as you will, no other
result can be reached. s' a
I y Applying the facts to this conn-
try-its public debt is little if any
less than one-eighth of the whole, or
five billions. Its accumulated wealth
is not Dearly ne-eighth of the whole.
Can we, as a country, in the next
thirty years pay seven and one-half
billions of dollars on interest and
still retain our prosperity The
thought is preposterous. The ten
deney of the effort to do so is visible
in every town--on every farm. Stag
nation. hard-times, scarcity of mon
Ee. lille men and women, starving
tramps. This It is that creates the
unrest and the opposition to the
gold basis. That the intelligence of
the American people will throw off
the terrible incubus in some way
that will prevent the serfdom of their
llposterity is only a question of time.
