Mr.. w. F. Coulter, GAINESVILLE, Tenn:-
The furnace 1 bought of you last fall for
curing tobacco has given perfect satisfac-
more the coming year. My barn is so by 60
feet, and / had no trouble in giving my to-
bacco just as much heat as it needed, after
fear of fire. The fires 1 LEFT burning all
night, and next morning there was no
to start. 1t is not only good for
curing tobacco, but one of the best for dry
ing in damp weather and also for stripping
by. Respectfully,
w. b. DUNLOP.

Office Of W. f. Coulter, Jan. LIST. 1884,
GAINESVILLE. Tenns-DEAR SIR: take pleas
ure in stating that used your Patent To-
bacco Curing Furnaces all through the past
season. am well satisfied with the result
and am convinced that your Furnaces are
superior to anything ever invented for cur
ing tobacco without danger of burning.
LIST. They are easily adjusted and worked.
End. They save vast amount of anxiety
while firing.
3D.. One Is Sufficient for q to "a foot barn,
or two to four for 80 by 40 or 40 by 50 feet.
4tb. If assisted with open fires until the
leaf is half cured, then shut Off open fires, 1t
VIII take fewer furnaces.
9Th. They are very valuable for keeping
tobacco dry during long wet spell, and for
stripping by in cold weather.
9TH. They furnish perfect safety from
blaze and sparks, need never let fires go
out at night, and yet need not stay in barn
at night, and be perfectly easy about burn
ing. for / believe with proper care it Is i'm
possible to burn barn with them. L think
they will last lifetime If kept from rust,
and would recommend them to all plan
tiers. If they all will adopt them, many
thousands of dollars will be saved that are
lost yearly, curing the old way with open
fires. Wishing you much success, am
Yours very truly

A White Man Passes Himself on ss
an indian.

The csmpoodies southwest Of town
were the scene Of unusual excitement
yesterday. Il was accidentally discov-
cred that one Of the head sachems, who
had lived on the Walker reservation for
years, was white man. How the dis
covery was made is not stated. The To-
dians was so worked up over the discov-
cry that the renegade. fearing for his
life, came to town. Upon being inter
viewed by reporter, he said he was o
native OF Massachusetts, and AZ years of
age. He became entangled in scrape
when he was IS years old. and unning
away from home followed the sea for
two years. Arriving at San Fran
cisco he joined in the rush to
the mines After o pretty rough exper-
fence going from camp to camp, he
finally, after the collapse Of the Meadow
Lake boon, joined the Piutes at the
Pyramid reservation. He remained
there until he had fully mastered the
language and habits Of his dusky friends
and then painting himself and assuming
the garb Of the red men. came 10 Walker
lake, where. in consideration OF his able
advice in the councils OF the tribe, he
was elected chief and allowed three
wives, He says that although he some.
times longed for news from the Bay
State, he was perfectly content to re-
main where he was, as he found the
roaming, independent life Of the Piutes
just the thing for a man tired Of the
busy scenes Of civilization. Now that
he has the paint washed OF and has
donned decent salt Of clothes he is q
very intelligent-looking man and It is q
wonder that he could have kept himself
from his race so many years. He will
probably return 10 the huIno Of his youth
