the following story of Mark Twain: l
think it was Marks second year of lee
turing in the East. He told me one day
that he was going to get married, and he
wanted me to go with him to buy what
you would have called . "trousseau" if
he had been woman. He bought enough
for a century or two; he comes from
long-liyed race, and he had an eye to
the future. He was not worth more
than $4,000 or $25,000 at that time,
I guess He has made since over $780,

LONDON, Nov. 28.-The Observer
understands that the first battalion
of guards has been ordered to Ire
land. The Observer in it's leading
article says: "What the Irish NAL
contents desire is the repeal of the
union. IF most of the extreme pro-
posals of land leaguers were to be
carried into effect, the popular agita-
ton against English rule would lose
nothing of its intensity. It is we'll
nigh idle to hope that the Irish dis
afectants can be removed by rene
dial legislation. Our interest and
duty equally bind us to remove any
real grievance, but we have also to
bring home to the Irish mind the
conviction that the nationalist de-
mands are inadmissible. Things in
Ireland are drifting towards a crisis
whose only possible outcome is
another fenian rising"

Nothing to Lose.

What inducement can counterfeiter

liable? He has no reputation and
nothing to lose, and If he can make
up anything cheap that he can get

will resort to substituting, counter
feiting or initiating SO as to steal from
the reputation OF another will not do
to be trusted, certainly in making
medicine for the sick. Such is the
action of several adventures who imi-
tate, substitute or claim some medis

FOrd's Comedy Company,

A brilliant season Of fun and anause-
ment, Is in store for Knoxville
play. goers Thursday andFriday nightF,
it being the engagement of John It.
Ford's comedy company. OF their
appearance in Nashville last Friday
night the American says:
Miss Carrie Walker, last evening,
made what might be called her debut,
since her dramatic services have hith-
erto been confied to minor roles. 1t is
a matter of regret that the weather
was bad, support net pan tlcularly good,
and the audience in number far less
than it should have been. 1t was Miss
Walkers fir appearance as Pauline.
The disadvantages attendant were
many.
Miss Walker in voice, appearance
and action, greatly resembles Mary
Andersop, and many Of the crudities
that the latter lady has outgrown may
be distinguished In the former. Stage
experience is the only correction of the
faults of amateurism, even in the case
of the greatest genius. This experience
Miss Walker lacks. It will bring
graceful bearing before the footlights,
aud control of facial and vocal powers.
Miss Walker possesses dram a'ic
ability Of high order, which,
with the cultivation that comes
only with time, will place her in a
leading position among theatrical
stars. The face, figure and voice, for
success, are hers, and no doubt her
mental capabilities and application to
study are equally as meritorioRS, Her
friends, last night, were greatly pleased
with the Improvement she has made
eince she left Nashville to win fortune
and fame from an arduous profession.
Kind applause followed her as she
delineated the varying emotions of
the proved but loving maiden, and
those who saw faults were most ready
| to bear testimony to the lady's talents
and promise for future preferment.
