Remarkable Healthfulness.

Lynnville, Giles county, Tenn,
has the best record for healthful-
ness of any place under the sun that
we know of Not single death
has occurred in two years within a
radius of one mile from the station.
The health department takes 1,000
as basis from which to make esti-
mates, and Lynnville has 500 in
habitants In two years her 500
counted twice is ZOO and the NOR
tally is zero-a thing unheard-of in
the annals of healthfulness. Pur-
suing the same ratio one can easily
see that Lynnvillite will live 1000
years before the opportunity arises
for him to shuttle off this mortal coil,
and at the end of that time he
stands an equal chance with an out
slider to live his usual time. With
out esting, this is wonderful show
ing and will attract attention
She is already rapidly growing, and
we may be pardoned for suggesting
that in our opinion her growth is
largely attributable to the assiduous
reportorial labors of her correspun-
dent to the CITIZEN, who has never
permitted any of her interests tC
languish and has been untiring in
holding up her advantages and vir
tues to the public. He has done
Lynnville good and that people
ought to be grateful to him and as
sist him in his efforts,

Christmas Dots.

Among the many pleasures with
which Old Kris has RECALLED us this
season, none were more enjoyable
than the rich entertainment gi en-
by Mrs. D. G.. Carter in honor OF
her son to his friends. In the days
of Lang Syne" we have spent
many happy moments under her
oof-tree, and we found by expert
ence, at this party, that her heart
had not grown cold, nor her hand
lost its cunning in tue construction
of dainties. She is the same gent
al, whole-souled, generous hostess,
who has endeared herself for so
many years to the young folks Of
Pulaski. The young ladies assem-
hled were like "a rose bed garden
of girls,' promising to sustain Pu-
laskis reputation for beautiful
women. The beaux were enter
tanning, gallant and numerous.
When supper was announced, if as
Bulwer says, the dell always tempts
an empty stomach, we feel assured
our handsome escort has nothing to
fear as he then and there fortified
himself for at least q month to
come. We would not object to a
repetition # this charming evening
at an early date but our hostess in
formed her son in our presence:
This is your last party, Charley,
until you are q bride" e. v.

The Goat and the Fire.

1t is asserted now with some de-
gree of certainty that he goat set
the bank building on fire. The
boys girdled him with fire crackers
and adorned him with Roman can
dies apd other miscreant inventions,
and turned him loose to shame the
comet and Brighten the stars. He
went across the square like sluice
of Bob IngersoH rhetoric or a por-
cupine lnit-ailleuse streaming with
blazing balls that limned the night
with parabolas and parallels and
rectiliniar asyrntotes of lurid
streaks, and in his mad fight he
passed just in front of the baak and
exactly at this point he let off
his most terrific volleys all in a
heap, which looked so much like
charging a battery that several old
soldiers in the crowd hid behind a
goods box and yelled for the corpo-
raj of the guard to bring on the re-
lief. Now was the time, if ever, to
set fire to the bank, and a broken
pane in an upper window near an
old pile of paper would have been
fine spot to shoot one of the mis-
siles in, and spectator ON Coon
Corner asserts positively that he
saw ball of fire leap from its past
board scabbard and make its way
directly to the spot, and this doubt
less would have caused the fire if
the building had not been already
burned just thirty eight hours ten
and quarter minutes before that.
1t was a narrow escape. BY the
way, it is advised from reliable
source to Goat to the ant, thou
slnggard, and learn wisdom" Ant
there is derived from the Latin
antagonista, and means to al tago-
nize, to butt. Hence, the frequent
expression "Goat to- Corrupted in
to "go toy means that you must
antagonize the devil. Hence again, /
a goat with fire works attached
turned loose to play on the com
mons is likely to play the devil.
And further hence, accidents al
ways follow in the wake of boys
who are taught to goat while
they're young" which being inter
preted means they will 'goat to the
devil" All of which is respectful |
ly submitted.

Earthquake in Pulaski.

An earthquake was felt in Pu-
laski last Sunday morning about G
O'Clock, rafting the doors and win
dows and waking many people
One gentleman said it ratified his
bed springs and numerous others
heard and felt it distinctly. Ordi-
narily an earthquake is caused by a
cat jumping down from the cup
board or the hired girl dropping the
scuttle, but this was too generally
felt to be mistaken. Pulaski does
not enjoy such sensation often
enough to be cheated out of it by
finding a local cause. Several per-
sons who didn't hear Of it until after
supper are now among the first who
felt the shock and told it at the
breakfast table. 1t was suggested
that it was Old Father Time shak-
ing off the old year, or the reverbera-
tons from the democratic tidal
wave-or the falling of wall of the
burnt bank building.

Drained by a Rife Ball

Last Thursday afternoon an aw-
full accident occurred about seven
miles south of Pulaski, by which
MIR. Henry Rotenberry received a
wound in the head from which if
he RECEIVERS it will be wonder
He and Mr.. Thos. Tomerlin, both
young men, were hunting and had
shot and crippled squirrel, which
crawled into a hollow log. In order
to scare il out Tomerlin punched his
gun in at one end of the log
Rodenberry was looking in at the
other and by some means the gun
was fired. The ball passed down
the hollow through some rotten
wood in a crook in the log and
struck Rotenberry in the top of the
head just above the edge of the
hair on the forehead and ranged
back, coming out near the crown ot
the head and penetrating the upper
brain. Eie fell senseless to the
ground tumbling some distance
down a hillside. He was carried
home still living. DR.. S. S. Stump
ter was summoned and found the
skull all shattered and the brai1
obtruding. He took out several
pieces of bone, leaving an opening
of about two inches in length, and
removed a portion of the brain
He seemed to be doing well and
there was slight hope of his re

z, T. Tal;aferro.

1t is with many regrets that we
announce the early and permanent
departure of Mr. Z. I. Taliaferrc
from Tennessee. He will leave Pu-
laski in a few days for Ft. Smith,
Ark, where he has formed a law
partnership with a distinguished
firm, the style of the new firm being
Taliaferro, Tabor d. Tabor, with
offices both at Fl. Smith and Van
Buren,. Pulaski and Tennessee
suffer a severe loss in his departure.
Young in years, yet few men in
Tennessee are better and more favor
ably known. His great legal abili-
ty and strong bearing will at once
place him at the front in the west
and we shall be disappointed if we
do not hear very shortly of his sue
cess. If he chooses to enter politics
his name viii be national some day
We part with him with sincere re
luctance and this item will be read
with universal regret throughout

DUBosE g. EzELL.

The books of the cotton weigher
at the depot, Mr.. Harrison, show
1,650 bales received during De-
cember ult. Total receipts for the
season up to January LIST is 4427.
AS we predicted, this falls far short
of last years receipts. The low
price of cotton may have caused
some of the planters to hold for a
rise, and shipments for January may
be larger than last year, but we do
not believe that this will altogether
account for the falling Off Nor is
it because of shorter crop. We
have before intimated what the rea
son is, More of the cotton raised
in Giles has been carried to Hunts
vile and other points on the rail
road and sold or shipped than usu
ally. Pulaski ought to look more
to the interest Of her trade than to
suffer such to be the case. She
ought to handle nearly every bale
of cotton that is raised in the coun
ty, and can do it by proper man
apement.

Mr.. Jas. D. Andrews.

The recent misfortune of this
gentleman in having his newspaper
Office and books totally destroyed
by fire touched a popular pulse OF
sympathy. His headquarters being
transferred to this Office temporarily
we were witness to the acts OF
substantial sympathy. We would
dislike to believe thsst any man in
Giles would take advantage of the
destruction of his books to escape
paying him, and we found that to
avoid even the appearance of this
they came promptly and paid will
ingly. We learn that there are
some who have not yet paid and
that their accounts are in the hands
of Flournoy Rivers, ESQ r, for settle
ment. If you know you owe him,
call on Mr.. Rivers. Thissympathy
for Mr.. Andrews-did not stop here.
Before the walls fell ~ on the ashes
of his office he had an offer of a
situation. Since then he has can
vassed the matter thoroughly and

energy and ability and the Banner

Its weekly edition IS splendidly
edited and if you want Nashville

We felt called upon to,effer him the
use of our office and columns to use
as he saw proper in the winding up
or rebuilding of his business and we
did it for no other reason than be-
cause we had known him closely for
years and felt for him and knew he
deserved all the aid we could give
him. We are glad to know now
that he is well fixed and we hope
his career may be successful and

ladies especially are invited. The

Simpson Chapel.

Quarterly meeting was held al
this place on the 25th of December
Several events have transpired
since our last writing, some o.
which are very painful for us tc
note. The death of Mrs. S. j
Simmons was sad shock to al
who knew her. The bereaved hus
band and daughter have the sympa
thy of the entire community.
Grace, a sweet little girl of Mr.
and Mrs. j. NJ. Fortress, has been
lying at the point of death for sever
al days with diphtheria. We have
heard of several cases in the neigh
borhood. There has been quite a
stir here lately among movers, some
of whom we regretto lose. Our
accommodating blacksmith II. F.
Brooks will move to Lynnviile to
work with Mr.. Brooks Alexander.
We commend him to the people OF
that place as clever gentleman.
Miss Lizzie Westmoreland is
visiting at Bethel.
Milt Williams of Cedar Grove
spent a few days during Christmas
here.
-Thos. Grubbs is visiting at his
mothers. We learn that he will
go from here to Fort Worth, Ark.
Misses Eliza and Mary Belle
Sellers have been visiting in Lynn
vile.
The young. people enjoyed
themselves very much at a social
given at Mrs. Jane Moore's last
Tuesday night, Goth, and one at
Mrs. Grubbs' the ,2Sth.
One of our young widowers has
BACKED his whiskers, perfumed his
hair, shined his CATERS and dares
any sixteen years old girl to catch
him in game of snap.
Another one of our fair sex is
to step the straw next week. We
wish them Gods speed, as we are
getting anxious about who will be
left for us.
Misses Mary Lou Simmons and
Jennie Peden haze been visiting
near Campbellsville and attended
Miss Bette Cooks wedding. Miss
Dezzie Walker returned home with
them and stayed long enough to
captivate all the boys that met her.
Josh English and Prof. Crossno
made their appearance in this
neighborhood one night last week.
Their wit and humor is as bound
less as their good qualities and
they gave each other some power
full blows. We think that Josh has
the advantage of Xno in size but
the professor makes it up with
his big heart.
Our farmers raised their corn
and meat last year. They ought
to farm at less expense this
year. A farmer should never
fail to raise his home supplies.
Wheat is very backward and not
done coming up. There will not
be as much cotton planted this
year as usual. Give us more hog
and hominy, more fine stock, more
grass, more fruit and vegetables,
more go-a-head farmers, and last
but not least, more subscribers to
the dear old CITIZEN, and the rest
can go to new countries. A happy
new year to every reader of the
CITIZEN.
Mr.. Bryant Peden has moved
to this neighborhood. We welcome
all such men to our midst.

Martin College Spring Term

The announcement of the open
ing Of the Spring Term at Martin
College is in another column. We
are glad to know that this institu-
Jion was never before so largely
patronized as now. Its progress up
has been of that regular graduation
that tells Of solid growth-no flashes
nor fluctuations, but a steady IN
crease Il the time. Every depart
ment is ably served. In making up
his faculty last summer Prof. Jones
had choice from near a hundred APP
plicants, and the efficient and
thorough work d ne is evidence of
the wisdom of his selections. No
college offers better facilities or has
better teachers or better manage
ment, and when a daughter is placed
under its roof the parents may rest
tlsfied that she will not only be
taught well, but she will be so
hedged about with attention. that
her moral and ply zeal comfort is
safely assured. This is a prime
consideration-to know that your
daughter will be cared for and
watched and protected as if she
were at homeland this is made a
special object at Martin College.

Watch Meeting.

The old Methodist custom of
holding a watch meeting to see the
old year pass out and the new year
come in was observed at the church
in Pulaski Sunday night. There
was no preaching at the regular
hour and services began at IL
o'clock. DR.. Wright preached an
impressive and appropriate sermOn
to a small congregation of about
fifty people, all of whom wer,
kneeling in prayer when the old
year expired and arose with better
resolutions for the new. Many OF
them had never attended a watch
meeting before, but all were doubt
less touched with the solemnity OF
the hour.
