SEEKERS AFTER HEALTH.

Unfortunates who are seeking to renew
their health, are many. So often have they
been deceived by the advertisements of
worthless compounds, that many are dis
couraged, and refuse to believe anything
they read in the papers. Therefore, the
best advertisement of really good medi-
cine is the reputation it has gained in places
where it is being sold. No other remedy
ever discovered has grown SO rapidly in
public favor as that true medicinal tonic
called Browns Iron Bitters. In localities
where its extraordinary merits have become
fully known and realized by those who have
been in ill-health, the sale is unprecedented.
One druggist in our city reports the sale of
23S bottles in one week. 1t is, indeed, a
wonderful, health giving, life-saving pre-
paration. 1t is soothing and refreshing in
its effect, and strengthens every part of the
body, and creates healthy appetite and di-
gestion, even when the system is almost de-
stroyed by the many hurtful cathartics SO
commonly used. Reader, beware. duty
demands that you try Browns Iron Bitters,
if your health is poor from any cause

From a gentleman who came up from
Atlanta, yesterday evening, We learn the
following particulars of death on the rail,
a few miles below Dalton. The construc-
ton train on the s., r. 4 D. and the morn
ing express on the w. & A. roads were run
ming abreast as they neared Dalton in the
morning. A short distance ahead, just
around sharp curve, a colored man was
walking on the w. & A. track. 1t is pre-
sumed that he heard the approaching trains
and supposed it was the w. & A. express
alone, and stepped on the S., h. d D. track
to let it pass. AS he did so the engine
came up unawares to himself and the
engineer, until only half car-length away.
He was seen to throw up his hands, when
the engine struck him, killing him instantly

beside the road in the hands of the cor

HOLIDAY TRADE
Santa Claus at Taylor g. Co.'S,

SANTA Claus at taylor & Co.'S,
We desire to call attention to the attrac-
tive card in another column of Messrs. Tay-
lor d Co., of the New York China House.
MIR. Taylor has been in our midst only about
two years, yet by fair dealing and proper
appreciation of the wants of our people he
has built up good trade and made many
friends. He keeps the most complete stock
of house-furnishing goods that can probably
be found in the city. Besides this, his stock
of fine goods ornamental china ware, vases,
fancy china and tea sets, and goods of that
class, is hard to surpass. In fact, he has a
complete stock in his line.
This year he has decided to add the toy
trade to his business, and as he never does
anything half way, he has purchased an
immense stock of toys of every description.
In other words, he met with old Santa Claus
in New York and persuaded him to make head
quarters for Knoxville on the second floor
of his building. The public are invited to
visit his establishment and take look, and
if they can't find what they want, there is
no harm done. Give him call.

Y. NJ. c. A. Social Reception.

The first social reception of the season
was given last night at the coy and invit-
ing rooms of the Knoxville Young Mems
Christian Association, oversHope & Bros.
jewelry store, and it proved to be one of
the most enjoyable social events Knox
vile society circles have with essed
for many days. The attendance
was very large, and truly repres entative of
all sects, denominations, phases of society
in the city, all drawn together in happy,
mutual intercourse and enjoyment. We
understand that about tn usand invita-
tons were issued, and there were perhaps
from five to six hundred people present dur
ing the evening, the rooms at times being
literally damned.
A few hours were passed off in pleasant
social intercourse, music, and other methods
of amusement, and refreshments were
served in abundance and excellent style, by
| the good ladies who volunteered to conduc
that department. The reception was votst
a complete success by all, and frequent re
currence will be looked forward to witt
eagerness The young gentlemen of tn
committee, and the receiving ladies, deserv
the heartfelt thanks of all, and are due mucl
credit for the success of the occasion.
| The association rooms are growing to b
one of the most popular places in the city
especially among the young folks, and sue
events as these will work great good, an
reach large class of young folks and brin
them under beneficial influences, who eoul
not be reached otherwise.

Professor Curr's Second Lecture.

Prof. Allan Curr, the eminent Scotch
orator, was greeted at the opera house
again last night by an audience lacking
nothing in appreciation and interest, though
sidering not only the requirements of the
Lecturer and his wife, but also the merits Of
the Young Mems Relief Society, under
whose auspices the lecture was given.
Prof. CUR was introduced by Mr.. H. 0.
JONES' President of the society. His sub
ject was "Storming the Bastile," and the
lecture consisted of graphic and thrilling
detail of scenes and events in the great
French revolution, which was highly inter
esting and entertaining.
Mrs. Curr again favored the audience
with some excellent readings and recita.
tions, both Scotch and English, concluding
with the "Church Bells" recited in q
splendid manner, eliciting warm applause.
Professor Curr will give two entertaind
ments at the opera-house, Thursday an
Friday nights of this week, for the benefit
of the organ fund of the First Baptist Church.
His subject for Thursday night will be
