In noticing DIR. Lupton's very
valuable work on "The Elementary
Principles of Scientific Agrlcul-
ture," recently issued from the
press of d. Appleton d. Co., Phila-
delphIa, the Nashville Banner pays
the following compliment to DR.. T.
B. Harwell, o. this county. who
first conceived the idea Of teach
ing practical methods of agricul-
turs in our public shoots. 1t says:
Through the untiring efforts of
Hon. T. B. Harwell, of Giles county,
we are indebted for this work OF Dr.
Lupton's. He agitated the ques-
ton in the State Grange, and so
well did he impress the subject on
grangers they first made him Mas
ter of the State Grange and then
sent him to the legislature, chiefly
to perfect this plan. The duty de-
volved on the Commissioners OF
Schools and Agriculture, but their
duties consuming all their time they
delegated it to DR.. Lupton, who has
faithfully executed it. By act of
the legislature it is to be taught in
all public schools in the state. This
is wise provision on the part of the
legislature, and the country should
thank DR.. Harwell for conceiving
and DR.. Lupton for executing the
work.

A Good Piano.

Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper
says: A good piano at a fair price is
one of the wants of the times. An in
strument that is durable, that is sub
stantially made, and has all those quail
tiles of tone which make a first-class
pionO, can be had from the Mendelssonn
Piano Co., New York, from $3.50 to $500.
For over thirty-eight years their facto-
ry has been producing pianos, and
adopting every new invention which
has proved itself to be valuable. They
can be compared by an expert with the
instruments of the highest name and
fancy price, and the result is surpris-
ingly satisfactory. The piano is war
ranted for five years, and no purchaser
has ever made Il complaint. From per-
sonal knowledge and critical eXamina-
ton we can recommend any one to
send for catalogue to the above men,
toned manufacturers.

A Raid on a Kentucky Bank

LOUISVILLE, May 3.-The Court
er-JournaPs Paris special says that
some weeks since the clearing
house at Louisville notified Ken
kucky banks that four expert Chi
cago Observation-Disclosures Mitchell,
William Reed, James Pierson and
Al Bieter-were Ill the State and to
keep a lookout for them. There
has evidently been a failure to do
this. This morning, upon opening
the Citizens Bank, it was discov-
cred that the vault had been en-
tered through the cellar oil the
house in which the bank is situated.
The house had been unoccupIed
for several weeks, and the burglars
had all day Sunday to work in.
The vault Is a poor one and the
failure of the burglars to enter the
main one can only be attributed to
their being scared of, as they left a
magnificent kit of tools behind. A
box with S499 and a package of
$I9,5O0 in bonds were taken. Ten
thousand dollars of bonds are of
the Cincinnati Southern and be-
long to Mrs. G. S. Bent, of this
city, and $4,000 are Carlisle, KY,
bonds, the property of Mrs. John
of Covington, Ky. Pay
meat on the latter can be stopped,
but bank official says the South
ern bonds can only be recovered |
by compromise with the burglars.
1t is supposed the parties men
toned above are the guilty ones.

PURE WATER.

Besides keeping frst-class stock of Gro
ceries and Queensware we handle tie cele-
brated WATER ELEVATOR and Purifier,
an appliance for drawing and purifying water
from cistern or well.
Water, to he kept pure and healthy, re-
quires constant agitation or contact with
the air. This is absolutely essential. Should
you doubt the statement, compare the stag
nant pool with the swiftly running brook.
The ordinary air pump does not agitate or
bound to become more or less stagnant and
Injurious tc health. In the heated term the
water will have an offensive smell and dis
agreeable taste.
We propose to explain briefly the principle
of the Elevator and then let those who have
tried it speak.
The water is elevated in cups attached to
an endless chain, the lower end of the
chain revolving near the bottom of the wa
ter. These cups go down full of air which
they empty at the bottom and fill with wa
ter. To draw a bucket of water you have to
take to the bottom of the sistorn about three
hundred cubic inches of air. Ten buckets
drawn per day will carry through the water
about three thousand cubic inches every day,
agitating the water like q churn.
We have sold Elevators to the following
to whom we refer you Messrs. E. Edmund
son, John Phillips, a. J. AbernatEy, James
Anthony, Jones Hopkins, John W Black,
W. T. Mann, d. s. Martin, William Rivers,

Parker's Store.

The storm of wind and rain that
prevailed in the county recently
did a great deal of damage in this
section. Fences were swept away,
farming utensils and a great many
other things were carried off by the
| flood. The bottoms in some places
are so badly washed that it will be
impossible to produce a good crop
on the land this year. 1t is hard to
estimate the damage done to some
farms by being so badly washed
Every farm on this and Dry creek
lost from 100 to 1000 rails. They
were swept clean from the head to
the mouth. A negro living on the
banks of Dry creek had his corn
swept away 1t is said that a negro
woman was drowned near the Stacy
farm, though l cannot vouch tor the
truth of the report; at any rate, she
is said to be missing. Crops were
seriously injured. Cotton looks
bad and corn not much better; the
prospects are anything but fatter
ing. Wheat is taking the rust,
which makes the outlook still more
gloomy, but we hope our present
apprehensions may prove to be pre-
mature.
We have to record the death of
Mr.. and Mrs. William Cameron,
which occurred on the 22d and oath !
of April last. They removed to
Texas about two years ago but re
turned last winter and were stopping
at the residence of their son, Mr..
George Cameron, on Dry creek.
They had arrived at ripe old age,
and were citizens of Giles county
for long time. Both were Jealous

A Thrilling Scene.

A remarkable scene occurred at
a reading given Thursday night, in
Louisville, by Mary Scott Siddons.
The first part Of the programme
had just been concluded, the last
feature Of which was the rendition
of The Maniac" Mrs. Siddons
appeared in costume, and the audi
ence was much moved by her dra-
matte display. Suddenly a young
woman pushing past the door keep
err, ran down the main aisle, leaped
upon the stage and rushing to. Mrs.
Siddons attacked her savagely. The
woman had n dog in her arms
and a colored man followed her.
Persons interfered and prevent
ed any injury to Mrs. Siddons,
who explained that the young wo
man is demented person who had
escaped from her custodian. Great
excitement was produced in the au
dience by the occurrence.

"NOthing but Compound Oxy-

compound Oxygen has certainly
done wonders in my case" writes a
gentleman from Eufaula, Indian Terri
tory. "Before l commenced taking the
Oxygen had taken in the way of med

mended for consumption to no effect.
1 had been sick in bed for about thirty
eight months in all, and in less than
three months from the time l began
taking the Oxygen l was up and get
ting about. Had been given up by the
doctors to die time and again; but l
still live, and believe that nothing else
but Compound Oxygen saved me-" A
letter received five months later from
brother of this gentleman, says: "Your
Compound Oxygen has in the case of
my brother performed such a miracu-

Boon to Suffering Females.


BRADFIELD q Co., Atlanta, Ga.-Dear
Sirs Il take pleasure in stating that l
have used for the last twenty years the
medicine you are putting up, known as
DR.. Bradtield's Female Regulator, and
consider it the best combination ever
gotten together for the diseases for
which it is recommended. L have been
familiar with the preparation both as
practitioner of medicine and in domes-
tic practice, and can honestly say that L
consider it a boon to suffering females,
and can but hope that every lady in our
land, who may be suffering in any way
peculiar to their sex, may be able to
procure a bottle, and their sufferings
may not only be relieved, but they may
be restored to health and strength.

WORK FOR THE HANGMAN.
Wade, the Pulaski Murderer, Found
Guilty Of Murder in the
First Degree.


The trial OF Joseph Wade, in In
dianapolis, closed Thursday last. A
correspondent of the Courier-Jo
nal gives the result as follows:
The jury, after being out five
hours, notified the court that they
had agreed upon a verdict. Judge
Heller called the court to order, and
the jury came fling into the room.
Joseph Wade, the defendant, was
apparently nervous, and eyed the
jury earnestly as they came in. The
court said:
what say you, gentlemen, have
you agreed upon a verdict?"
ave have" said the foreman,
Mr.. Rhoads, and the verdict was
handed to the clerk of the court.
News that a verdict had been
found flew like wild fire, and by
this time large crowd was present
in the court room. The silence
was painful and oppressive, and the
deputy clerk, Mr.. Huntington, read {:
"We, the jury, find the defendant
guilty as charged in the indictment.
and that he do suffer the penalty of
death"
ALI eyes were turned upon the
condemned man as the awful words
were read. He sat quietly in his
chair, turned very pale and drummed
upon the table with the fingers OF
his right hand. For a few seconds
not a whisper was heard in the
coIrt room, but the silence was
broken by the hum of voices and
the shuffiing of many feet as the
crowd left the room. Several gen.
tlemen expressed their sympathy
to Wade, which he received with a
faint smile. AS he was leaving the
court room he said to the sheriff:
"Well, l don't see how the jury
could give such a verdict as that"
He walked in silence to the Jail,
when he remarked: "Well, Pm
citizen of the country, and I'll have
to put up with it, l guess" The
general opinion sustains the YER
dict, though few hoped that the
sentence would be Imprisonment for
life
The trial OF Mrs. Brown will take
place week after next. Her pros
poets of swinging from the same
scaffold as Wade are good. If
Wade really did commit the murder
he can confess and save the neck of
Mrs. Brown.
