The panicky condition Of the New York
stock market caused numerous dealers, who
were away rustcating and enjoying seaside
pleasure. to hasten to Wall and Broad streets,
In some cases they found it necessary to put
up larger margins, owing to the marked de-
cline in the leading stocks. In four Of the
fancies alone the aggregate shrinkage from
the highest quotation Of the present year
sums up one-tifth, or 20 per cent, of the en-
tire valuation.

The New York Express says the Swiss
watchmakers have been stirred up by the
Philadelphia Exhibition Of matchmaking
skill. This is the way the Express puts it:
American watchmakers so frightened the
Swiss watcbmaker5 at our Centennial EXIT
bition in Philadelphia that The latter re-
doubled their efforts to excel the former.
Consequently Switzerland alone has received
grand diploma OF honor, besides nine gold
medals, for it's watches Mt the international
Exposition at Paris. Waltham must now
watch Geneva more closely than ever If she
be bound to keep time with her Swiss rival.

outing scrap Near cranes-sl.e.


Last Tuesday night al the house Of James
Jernigan, near GAINESVILLE, there was
dancing party. QHite crowd was present.
Among the number were b. Il Jernigan
and Frank Howell, between whom there had
been in time past an uppleasantness. How
ell, grass-widower, wanted to dance with
some OF the ladies present, but they rather
objected to being his partner on account Of
his ,ass-widowhood. He thereupon be-
came incenssd. and being in liquor, COM
menced to annoy Jernigan, telling him that
he had whipped him some years ago when
pupil at his school, and that now he in
tended to whip him in return. Soon there
after the party adjourned, and Howell then
renewed the difficulty. Jernigan and hi
clinched, but parties separated them, and in
the struggle that ensued Jernigan was struck
on the head by Howell, who held an I'M
opened knife in his hand. Jernigan being
attacked made at Howell with his small
poeket-llnife, and graphing him struck him
in the thigh and lower body several times
with the knife. Howell, discovering that
ne was stabbed, called out for help, and
soon they were parted. Jernigan made off
at the instance OF friends, and Howell pur-
sued him with pistol, determined to kill
him if found. Not overtal5Ing Jernigan,
Howell started for his home in McNairy,
but his wounds would not allow him to go
far, and he stopped in Hardeman near the
McNairy line, where Constable Lockman
arrested him next day on a warrant. Jer-
nigan is at home.
Those present are OF opinion that the
cutting done by Jernigan was justifable.
Such frolics, where liquor and bad blooo
mix, and protesting Christians and sinners
mingle, always do infinite harm.
