it was ennobled in her eyes by the object Tor

A special from Chattanooga of Sep
tember 18th, says: Six months ago two
Huntsville, Ala, society bellies, while
going to concert with their beaux,
thought it would be fine lark to run
OIL and get married, and soon they were
speeding on the train to this city, and
were married here by an Episcopal min.
lister. Their escapade created the live
liest fiutter known in Huntsville society
in years. About two months ago one of
the brides, named Davis, was taken i'll
and her husband removed her to Rhea
Springs. She gained her health. but
her mind seemed unsettled Two weeks
ago they had quarrel and she refused
to have anything more to do with him.
Tonight she started out for a walk
Her husband followed. Soon the report
of pistol was heard and he was found
SHIT through the bowels and fatally
wounded by his wife. She is the
daughter of Col Merriweather. one of
the the most prominent men in the vicinity
Of Huntsville.

THE CLOTHING TRADE.

JOE T, Mc'TEER & Co., GETTING IN THEIR
FALE AND WINTER STOCK,
One of the busiest places in Knox.
vile is the mammoth Clothing House
OF j. T. McTcer & Co. Those who ave
not been within this establishment in
the last few weeks have no idea of the
extent of the clothing trade of Knox
vile. All hands are now busy unpack-
ing, arranging aud repacking goods.
Joe McTeer has just returned from his
second trip to the East this season and
his stock of clothing is now the most
extensive ever seen in East Tennessee.
Their new store, one of the largest and
handsomest in the city, is packed full
OF late styles OF Fall and Winter goods.
We pass the store every day, and have
seen these immense stocks of gnods
when they first arrived, and then we
have watched the great stacks of cloth |
ing melt away and wondered where it |
all went to. A glance at the shipping |
bills show its destination to be over all |
parts of East Tennessee and in all the |
adjoining States. The wholesale trade
OF this house is simply immense and is
assuming larger proportions every day,
Probably no business in Knoxville has
increased so rapidly within the last five
years as has j. T. McTeer & Cos.
1t would be out of the question to at
tempt an enumeration of even the diff
ferent styles and qualities of goods to
be found at McTeer's. 1t is simply an
Eastern wholesale clothing house set
down in Knoxville, duplicating the
styles, qualities and prices of Northern
and country merchants
VIII always consult their own interests
by giving this eouse trial
One of the leading speciaties of this
hrm is boys clothing. They have a |
well selected stock of the latest STYLES !
and best material, and can supply both t
he Wholesale and retail trade. I
Unlaundried shirts are becomInp moro t
popular all the time, because they are O
che per than laundried shirts of the s
anne material, and because the buyer C
'an always see the quality of the goods L
lie is buying. McTeer has an immense d
tock of these, and they are offered at a
xtremely low prices This firm has u
lso an extensive trade in white and 81
olored shirts of all kinds. U
The assortment of neckwear is stylish. u
yell selected, and one of the largest II
locks we ever saw. IL
McTeer has some of the nobbiest fall "
nd winter suits we ever saw. .
1t must not be supposed that this firm !"
5nores the retail trade because their +
holcsale trade has assumed such large n
roportiohs.- Buying their goods at the =,
cry lowest figures enables them to offer n,
'ecial bargains to customers. n,
McTeer buys in large quantities, and ii
lus is able to sell goods to the smaller m
erchants as cheap and in many cases tb
loaper than they can be bought in Gu
nall lots si
This firm guarantees to duplicate for di
erchants, when called upoo. any be
lstern bills. th
