inquest, suspicion rested strongly upon
one 10 Roy, a half breed. He was ar

sheriff Of the county, Joseph Pelland
who took him to his house at Swan Riv-

wards, and a posse of four armed men
was sent down to take him, or to see that
he did not escape until further evidence
could be ELECTED. The guard found him
at the sheritf's house, but very carelessly
let him walk out Of the house and escape.
His residence or Whereabouts was not
known to the authorities until 1874, when
1T was ascertained that he was at Salt
Lake. Borman's brother and some others
made . request that Gov. Davis should
make out q requisition for his appre-.

that could be produced against him be.

the Governor declined to act In the mat

would have to be borne BY the State. So,
it would appear that Gov. Davis attached

Billie Anderson Canvassins
Union County.

Our clever friend, Billie Anderson,
the democratic candidate for sheriff,
will have to read and study up little
on the boundary lines of his county.
We have it from good authority-the
man himself that was approached
that Billie was out day or Two since
canvassiDg the part Of the county Dor
dering on Union, and before he knew
it he stepped little over the bound
airy, and approached the house
Of a citizen of Union county,
whose home, however. is but
a short distance over the line. Billie
went through with his accustomed
electioneeriDg palsver with the old
woman and children and sent off to
the field where the old man was at
work to have him come to the house.
But when he had arrived and was ap-
preached 1t was discovered that he was
a citizen of Union county, so that all
of Billies valuable time and breath
had been wasted.

NIAGARA FALLS, July 81, $780,
Mr.. EDITOR: A good summer excur
sion is worthy of some note in a paper
widely circulated and read by every
one as the CHRONICLE is, so that others
desiring a summer vacation and little
relaxation from the strain Of regular
business, may avail themselves of the
first opportunity Of travelling over the
same way.
We made up company Of some four
or five hundred for an excursion to the
Lakes and Falls, took along with us q
band of music composed of some fifteen
musiciaDs, also eightisleeping cars that
were not to be changed until the entire
| company returned back to Lexington,
KY, the same point from which we
started. The sleepers, when we crossed
| the Lakes, were shipped across in
| transports and so accompanied US on
| the Canada side.
We are now done with the Lakes
and are at the Falls. 1t is quite cold
and fires and overcoats are in vogue.
will not attempt description OF
| the Falls lest it turns out with me as 1t
did with the good woman who wished
| to praise her husband after his death
| by suitable epitaph.
| The story runs thus: A famous
musician died and his wife wrote on
his monument the following inscrip-
ton: GONE TO that country where
alone his music is excelled."
1t was great compliment to the
musician that heaven could alone ex-
eel his music.
A famous pyrotechnic died and his
wife, initiating the above put on his
monument "Gone to that country
where alone his fireworks can be ex-
celled."
Imitation is not always successful.
shall not, therefore, initiate others in
al attempt at describing the falls
They are very grand and peculiar.
Tonight the excuasionists have 8
grand ball, at which I and my wife
Will scarcely be on-lOokers.
Tomorrow we go to Toronto, then
back at night to see the falls by cleo
trio lights.
The next day by steamer Alaska we
go to Put.in-bay. Thence to the
islands Of Lake Erie. After that We
put off in bee>line from the city o.
Toledo to Lexington, via Cincinnati
Thence, after little time to rest In
Harredsburg, we will off for the good
city OF Knoxville.

Mr.. EDITOR: My attention has

expose himself by the use of such
language. A Tark Is a citizen Of

to be "a vagrant; a stroller; beggar,

exceedingly intelligent, learned, indie
pendent and well-to-dO young men,

secutions from that place to Beirat.
from whence he came to America. Al
one time q husband from America

child without parents, protectors OF

the child came to America, grew to b.

The Knoxville Fire Insurance
Company.

The stockholders of the Knoxville
Fire Insurance Company Leld meet
ing on the 2lst inst, and heard the re-
ports Of the officers, which reports
showed that the company has been
more than reasonably successful. The
same board OF directors were re- elected,
and they in return elected the same of
ficers, with the exception of G. Powell,
secretary and treasurer, he declining
the position on account of other BUSH
ness, and Mr.. W. FL. Simmons was
elected to that Office. There is no
doubt but what the Knoxville Fire
Insurance Company is to make grand
success. and we see no reason why it
should not do go. The stockholders
and officers are all we'll known busi>
ness men, and they can not afford to
do little, mean act for the sake Of
saving any policy they may hold, If
they were even inclined so to do, but
they are all gentlemen of known inn
tegrity, and abundantly able TO meet
every obligation they may enter into.
Knoxville should take pride In every
institution of the kind che has. and
give the proper encouragement.
