Judge Lurton nm the Criminal


i The Hatcher case, which occu-
| pied the Criminal court during the
close OF last week and the COM
mencement of the present, was sig
nalized among other events by the
return of Judge Lurton to criminal
practice. Since his election as
Chancellor of the district some ten
years ago, the Judge has but rarely
Appeared i'm criminal cases and
some of his friends seem to have
thought that he had lost his apti-
tude for practice in that depart
ment. His speech of last Monday
night completely undeceived any
who might have formed such an
opinion; he did indeed commence
his speech with an apology for any
loss of familiarity with the routine
of criminal cases, butthe speech it
self soon demonstrated that the
apology was superluous. The pc
culiarly analytical character of his
intellect was never better demon
strated than it was by the luminous
method with which he dissected
the testimony and expounded the
law in the case, rendering transpar-
ent and simple a tangled mass of
evidence which must otherwise
have left the jury in hopeless
maze of confusion.
Though he has for some time
preferred the more abstruse depart
ments of law, Judge Lurton at
tanned his first distinctions in the |
Criminal court; we are not author
lied to TO say whether no desires to
give more time now 10 that line of
pleading, but can fairly predict |
that, if he should, his efforts will be
of inestimable value to parties
therein concerned. For ourselves /
it is a high intellectual qualification
to listen to him even though hav-
ing no personal interest in the case
he may be dealing with; it is a
pleasure. somewhat akin to that !
with which we contemplate a snb-
tie mathematical analysis or the
discussion of a nice point i'm meta
physical science. w.

THE plan indicated by Prof. Tate
for further improvement of Idaho
Springs, must meet the approval of
all interested in that place as sum-
mer resort. Families at moderate
cost can secure the benefit of the
waters and cool air. And should
they not wish to resort there, they
can alwas rent their lots, as the
waters will go, with the lots. We
learn that the waters will, hereaf-
ter be confined to the use of the
place, as the most popular will not
bear transportation only under the
most favorable circumstances, and
those receiving it in town from the
wagon, judge of the waters when
it has undergone chemical changes.
We learn that more than half of
the lots have been engaged as they
are offered low privately.

Shooting I'm Robertson County

Mr.. A. B. Hopkins, prominent
citizen of Springfield, Tenn, shot
and killed his son-in-law, DIR. j.
w. Nuckolls, at that place last
Tuesday morning. The shooting
was done with a dOuble-barrelled
shotgun. There had been trouble
between Hopkins and Nuckolls for
some months past, growing out of
family affairs. 1t is stated that
NuckOlls had previously attempted
to shoot Hopkins and had made re-
peated threats against his life. 1t
is believed that Hopkins acted
purely in self defense. The affair
created a good deal of excitement
at Springfield. s. #.t.i-

The New Drug Firms.

~ Il { s-
Our readers have been already in
formed that Mr.. j. F. Warfield has
sold out his drug store to Messrs.
Lock ert & Reynolds, young gentle
men we'll known I'm the city from
theirchiIdhood. Whether as school
boys or employees in the leading
drug-stores of the city, our young
friends have made their mark by
devoting their minds seduously to
the business in hand, and they have
thus acquired reputation as young
men of high intelligence and thor
Ough business habits. In addition
to his experience in Owen & Moore's
establishment, Mr.. Reynolds has
for two years held very response
BILE situation as travelling agent for
the wholesale drugstore of Arthur,
Peter & Co., ofLOuisville, KY, and
we doubt whether two men could
be found in Tennessee better quail
fed for conducting every branch of
the drug business. They have Sc
cured the oldest stand for their bus
mess in GAINESVILLE, and if they do
not succeed, it will be because the
GAINESVILLE people are utterly in
sensible to the interest they have
in cherishing and patronizing the
best of their rising young men.
This we find it impossible to be-
lieve, and accordingly we predict
brilliant career to the new firm of
Lockert & Reynolds. The store is
now open and it's intelligent and
gentlemanly proprietors in regular
attendance.

From and after this date we will not an
nounce candidates for county offices, or do
work for them without paymentin advance
This step we deem advisable because it is
much easier to pay these bills before tnan
after an election, especially if those for
whom work is done should be defeated.
Correspondents will not be allowed to give
candidates favorable mention in their let
ters without paying the regular price, ten
cents a line each insertion, for all such mat
ter contained in their letters.
These rules will be strictly adhered TO
There are now ON our books considerable
sums contracted by candidates, that are un-
collectable a complication we desire to
avoid in future.

Messrs. Philip Phillips and Sons
"Evening of Song" under the aus
pices of the Y. NJ. G. A, at Elders
Opera House, last Saturday night
was largely attended. These gen.
tlemen possess very fine voices, but
the selection of songs chosen for
their performance here, we are con-
strained to think, were not of the
best. 1t is but stating the truth to
say that the audience was not
pleased with the entertainment.
Those who were disappointed, how
ever, ought not to blame the Y. NJ.
c. A, for Messrs. Phillips and Son
came to them with the highest
recommendations of the press and
public of other cities.

MEssRs. ELLIS & Co:-It affords
me great pleasure to make the fol-
lowing statement: For fourteen
gears [ have been constantly suffer-
ing from chronic h9maturia-the
hemorrage being at times very
great, and at no time entirely ar
rested. The accompanying conges-
ton of the kidneys frequently was
acutely painful. / have had treat
ment by the best physicians, but
their skill gave me no relief. The
widespread celebrity of the Bailey
Springs. in the cure of affections of
the urinary organs, determined me
to try them. / have been here two
weeks and am entirely relieved.
Indeed, in less than one week, all
appearance or sensation of disease
had disappeared, as if by magic. /

this voluntary statement, believing
that too much cannot be said in re-
gard to the wonderful effects of the
waters here. Very truly,
