Another Barn Burned.

We r very sorry to learn that
Mrs. Elsea Jones, widow of the late
Thos. E. Jones, living some d miles
northeast Of this place, met with
the great misfortune on Friday night
March I'd, Of having her barn de-
stroyed by fire, together with six
head of horses-two of them work
horses-the other four colts, about
grown; also all of her hay, oats,
straw and "shucks;" a two horse
wagon; il one horse hack; a new hay
rake, all of her harness, a windmill, a
new f%eed-cutter. One cow was in
jured some, but the balance all broke
out and were saved.
AS to how the fire originated is a
mystery; it must have been the work
Of an incendiary; why anyone should
thus seek to iniure an inoffensive
widow is more than we can explain.
And her husband was a quiet, peacea-
BILE industrious man, who attended
strictly to his own business. We
hope, though, that the truth will
come out, and that the guilty ones
if there be any such, will be made to
suffer.

Bristol Tobacco Market.

We call attention to the report
of the Bristol Tobacco Market pub
lished in another column. This
market has a high reputation as a
market for bright tobacco. We feel
sure that our planters would find 1t
to their interest to patrOnize this
market-the more especially as it is
near enough for them to attend the
sales in person-which is a great
advantage III selling any kind of
produce A day spent in the ware
house would pay them well for the
information they would get in res
gard to the best mode of handling
tobacco.

our Public Roads.

Every paper we pick up nova,
DAYS has something to say In regard
to our publi.. roads-their miserable
condition, the failure of our overseers
to do their duty, etc. etc. Well, our
roads are miserably muddy we know
/ They were.muddy and almost impass
able last wear at this time, two years
ago, and on back as far as tn" Oldest
inhabitants can remember, our roads
were perhaps just as muddy and as
miserable as they are. now-and they
will be lust in the same condition at
this time next year-provided it rains
and SHOWS and people travels over
them. and we guess all these
things will happen next year Just as
they have this year and IN the years
gone by. Well, then. our roads are
bad-have been bad and will continue
to be bad for all time to come unless
we do like our merchants say they
are selling their gooas-at rock bot
tom prices"
We want rock bottom roads: but
how are we to get them? Flom the
State? No, the State his no money
Polk stole it all. Our County
Court cannot make mecadimized
roads all over the county. Our peo-
pie cannot and could not stand such
a tax as 1t would require. 1t must
be borne in mind that neither the
State mol the County has any money
except what is drawn from the peo-
pie.
Good roads cost something: and
the cost of making them, and keeps
ing them in repair should be borne
by those deriving the most ben eft
from them. Good roads are a benefit
to every person in the community.
bnt more especially to those running
wagons, hacks, buggies etc, and those
having produce to haul to market.
We trust our overseers will do the
best they can with the means they
have in their hands to improve our
roads; and that some of our
public spirited citizens will set the
ball in motion and keep it rolling
until we get some good mecadamized
roads leading out in different di-
rections from Jonesboro-a few such
roads as these would benefit u
town and county more than Ealf
a dozen railroads.

Chronicle: A member of the Leg
i~slature, from Hamilton County,
drew a pistol on a fellow passenger
who abused the legislator for acct
dentally knocking his hat off on the
Nashville train, Monday. The pas
senger, named Hill, the Times states,
told the legislator that he did not
want to fight any one, nevertheless
he was not afraid of him or his pistol.
Other passengers interferred, and
when conductor Rucker entered the
car he found Hill quietly eating an
orange and the legislator sitting near
him. Explanations were made, and
no further trouble occurred.
1t is worthy of noteIthat the legis-
lator recently voted in favor of the
passage of Senator Agee's bill to
prevent the carrying of concealed
weapons and the sale OF pistols and
cartridges in the State.

ARE YOUR LOVED ONES PROVIDED FOR

There is a soleminity in the idea of
death, whether viewed from the
standpoint of the Deist, Atheist, In
fdel, Pagan. Jew or Gentle; and
whether regarded as the threshold of
eternal bliss or the end of existence.
There is something peculiarly sad
in the fact of depriving a helpless
family of its natural protector, ard
leaving them pennyless upon the cold
charities of the world.
The KNIGHTS OF Honor not only
assist the living, but also comfort the
diving. The pangs of death may be
alleviated by the fact of Having
some projection for u loved ones
