Nashville american, 25th: The inaugu-
raj raid by the police upon the gambling
houses, In accordance with the instructions
from the police and workhouse committee,
was made upon the den on the first floor in
the rear of the Sherman house, North College
street, about half-past ten o'clock last night,
by Officers Baker, Fletcher, Bergin, Skalley,
Covert and Massey. Upon the arrival of the
posse at the spot, two were stationed at the
rear entrance and one at the window, and
Both doors were found unlocked, but no
gamblers were in the room. The only i'm
plements captured, table, the cases and
card board, were taken to the stationhouse.
The military drill at the foreground,
Friday last, attracted nine-tenths of the au-
Gience, and the military companies gave their
valuable services free of charge. Judge of
the astonlshment OF the mem bers of the
Chickasaw Guards when they had to pay their.
own railroad fare out and back to the
grounds. The Bluff City Grays hired omni-
buses to take them to and from the grounds.
The two or three gentlemen who gave the
barbecue in the name of the Grangers' ASSOC
citation, should by all means refund the mill
tary companies their expenses. Somebody
made thousand or more dollars out of the
affair.

In the application of Diana Taylor for a |
divorce from Alexander Taylor, continued I'M |
til yesterday for proof, the complainant failed |
to produce any competent or legitimate proof. |
Presiding Chancellor Edgington thereupon |
dismissed the whole proceedings. The next |
application will probably be to The circuit |
court. The principal and only witness intro |
duced yesterday, was the mother-in-law of |
the defendant, who testified to endless mat
tiers of omission and commission, threats, |
menaces, etc., the beauty of all of which, |
however, was, though she knew all about it, |
she was perfectly blind. Yet Justice was not. |
The prosecuting attorney was evidently O. |
novice in the business and was somewhat in |
clined to look upon the courts refusal as I'M
precedented in the annals of divorce pro- |
ceedings In our courts.
