THE STORIES OF THE INDIGNITIEs TO THE UTE
CAPTIvES CONFIRMED.
CHICAGO, January 10.-General Adams,
who arrived yesterday, confirms the stories
of the nameless indignities which the white
women suffered at the hands OF their cruel
captors. He says the women very unwi-
linely made full statement 10 the commits
sion OF the crcums tances, with the under
standing that il should not be published.
Mrs. Meeker, however, subsequently pub
Ished the story herself. General Adams
said that had he known OF this part OF The
barbarjtv of the savages before the commits
sion began its work he would have advised
letting General Merritt and his force pun
i.b the Red Skins without further delay.
The women were, however, so ayerse to
having the facts known that they at first
denied even to the commission that they
had been foully dealt with.

The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1880-09-16

Some sixty persons, men, women
and children, left this place Thurs
day night last for Texas, where
they intend TO locate. Most, if not
all of them, were from Marshall
county and we Judged from their
appearance and outfit tha5 they
were persons Of very moderate
means. They may better their for
tunes in Texas, but we seriously
doubt it. Poor men, with scarcely
any means, as ruiz. have hard
time out there as it takes capital to
give one safe fputt old ON The soil
of the state now, and as we have
often said before, the same amount
of money required for that purpose,
if invested In land in Middle Ten
nessee would yield as much, if not
a larger profit, than the average
farmer can hope TO realize in the
Lone Star State, especially if it is
supported by the constant exertion
and very hard labor which are in
to moderately success
full farming operations even in a
new country. But q good many of
our people never know when they
are doing as well as their capacity
and means will allow, and it takes
2 trip or SO to Arkansas, Texas, or
some other wild country to sharpen
their understanding. and make
them appreciate the solid comforts
ard numerous advantages left be-
hid.

ga. bought farm for ,$4, 500, to
be paid for in four annual install
ments, the notes to bear interest at
6 per cent, and all to be equal at
maturity, How much did he pay
annually?'
The problem is from Robinson's
Arithmetic, but is not properly
stated. 1t reads as as follows: "a
man bought farm for. $4,000, and
agreed to pay interest and principal
in four equal installments. How
much was the annual payment, in
terest being 6 per cent"
The two are radically different.
AS stated by Mr.. L. the notes must
be such, that each plus its own in
terest, shall equal any other note
plus its interest, SO they may ''be
equal at maturity.
In Robinson's problem the first
note must pay, not its own interest,
but the interest of the $4, 800, and
also pay a part of that principal;
the End note must pay the in
terest on what remains of the 81.
500 and another part of the dimin-
ished principal, and so on.
My solution was of Mr.. LIS prob
lem, and Is rigidly correct. l was
not solving Robinson's example;
had not seen it. r.
We cannot give the work In the
solution for the want of proper
signs in type.

rather antique in design. After

gardens are attached to a great

the buildings are of modern ar

The Fair.

heretofore, the first day OF the
fair has been considered as lacking
in attractions, hence the opening
was invariably marked by slim at
tendance. We invite the attention
of the people to the catalogue to
show that there will be no grounds
for any such apprehension this year.
1t has been arranged so as to make
the exhibition on the first day fully
as interesting as the subsequent
ones. One of the directors informs
Us that the display of sheep will be
unusually fine, and surpass by far
any previous exhibition. This,
with other attractive features OF
the programme, should induce
every body, who possibly can, to at
tend at the opening. I be main OBJ
ject of the directors this year has
been to make every day interesting,
and from present indications they
are pretty sure to succeed. We re-
peat that the fair this year prom
Uses to be the most attractive and
successful exhibition held in the
county since the war, especially in
the display of fine stock from
abroad. The merchants of the
town are making arrangements for
a handsome display of their wares
and we hope our country friends
are equally as active. Let politics
slide for awhile, at least, and let US
all lend our support to an enter
prise which will be of far more real
value to the county and the people
than all the speeches Illuminated

paign.
