Death Claims His Own.

Mrs. Elvira Dyer, the aged moth
er of Mr.. Jno. w. Dyer, recorder Of
Pulaski, died at his residence on
Third street last Monday event ng
at Z o'clock, of paralysis, aged 76
years, 3 months and s days.
Afflicted with disease and bowed
down with the weight of many years
she has suffered greatly and for a
long time. Death, though the eli
max of earthly pain, is the panacea
of all suffering and sorrow, and the
good old woman, after a long life OF
usefulness, now rests from all troub-
les, perplexities and griefs in that
land where the faithful and blessed
receive their reward. Rev. d. l..
Wilson conducted her funeral ser
vices and she was buried at Pts
gah.

A Nutting Party.

A party of about twenty young
people, chaperOned by Mrs. Phil
lips, Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Robin
son, spent last Saturday in the
woods near Trinity. They didn'
bring back many nuts. They
couldn't find any chestnuts be
cause the burs hadn't opened, and
hickory nuts were too common fol
them, considering that they hadn't
time to spare to pick them. A
splendid dinner was served on q
grassy mound shaded by the au-
tumn leaves. The pleasures of the
day were only surpassed by the en-
iOyments of the evening, which af-
ter a sumptuous supper at his hos
pitable home, was spent at Mr..
John Phillips. His charming
daughter, Miss Rosa, inaugurated
The movement, and To her the entire
party are grateful in memory Of an
occasion so fruitful of recreation
and ripe pleasure, if not of ripe

Grasshoppers Migrating.

Last Monday afternoon sbout
o'clock a cloud of grasshoppers
passed over Pulaski flying in a
south-easterly direction. Though
the heavens were not darkened,a las an
uncrupulous pen might picture, yet
there was such an immense swarm
of them as to attract the attention
OF all those who were on the street
at the time and to elicit much com
ment and speculation. One man
says there were fifteen million of
them. He counted only that num-
Der, but thinks possibly there were
a few small ones which in their swift
flight escaped his notice. 1t was
suggested that they were on their
way to Florida to spend the winter.
Whatever their destiny, or the size
of their army, the farmers of Giles
will be glad to hear of their migra.
tion, and some may be cruel and
wicked enough to hope that they
may land in a hotter cline than that
suggested by our speculative friend
and that they may spend next sum-
mer there. This hungry army, or
one of its allies, has done considera-
BILE damage to vegetation in this
county recently. From some sec
tions reports of serious damage to
crops are received. 1t now seems
that they have resigned their de-
structive Office to jack frost.

A BOLD MIDNIGHT ROBBERY.
A Bank Cashiers Desperate and De-
termined Fight.
A Fearful Struggle.
calnly Facing Death but Refusing
to Yield.
A Heroic Mans Last Words.

The south has produced many
heroes, but it never produced +,
Drawer one thsn the bank cashier
who, last night, smiled as the colo
muZzle of a revolver was pressed &c
his temple and calmly said to the
brigands surrounding him: "You
may kill me but you can never in,
duce me to open that safe.''
The clock had over an hour be-
fore tolled the hour of midnight
and with the exception of a few
roysterers returning to their homes
the streets were deserted. Over at
the bank burned a solitary gas jet,
and the watchman who passed a
half hour before saw the cashier
bending over his books trying to
unravel a mysterious shortage that
had been noticed the day before.
Hist! what is that? There are
footsteps, but the cashier hears
them not. With stealthy steps
three men crouch behind a pillow,
less than a dozen feet away from
the busy cashier The cashier
moves and as he does so three pis-
toll barrels CLEAN in the dim light.
Throw up your hands," is the
command that suddenly makes him
aware of the mems presence. Up
go his hands.
what do you want?' he SIAM
mers.
Money" was the significant re-
ply. And then winking at his pals,
the leader of the band continues:
"Me and my pals are going to
wedding tomorrow and want cash
to buy ourselves dress suits with.
Now open that safe or give us the
combination"
mo, I'll do NEITHER" was the de-
fiant answer of the cashier, as he
gazed carelessly at two pistols COW
ering him and a third pressed
against his temple. "I'il not open
the safe, nor I'll not give you the
combination. If you want new
clothing, take my advice and go to
F. Arrowsmith d Co.'S. You'll get
there the finest suits in the country
at one half their real value. And
while you are about it, I'D advise
you to look at their fine lot of
handsome overcoats and stylish
pants. A few dollars expended
there will dress all three in magnifi-
cent style"
At this moment two mice, which
were counting on the burglar alarm,
to touch off the Instru-
ment, and the burglars dashed out
Of the building.
"Aha" murmured the cashier, |

Review of the Week.

The progress of the season has
not more than kept pace with the
progress of the trade revival. The
reports from all sections are unani-
nous as to the main issue, varying
only in respect to the degree of i'm
provement. Nowhere is there any
approximation to a rush or boom in
business, but the variations are
comprehended within gradations of
cheerfulness in tone arising from
the present action and the prospec-
tive conditions of the country's va
riops local :centers. 1t appears
to be everywhere q steady, gradual
progress of convalescence and re-
cuperatIon on a good sound basis, a
process of recovery from peculiarly
serious ills, is advancing with cour-
age and vigor. The comparison of
failures is favorable to a hopeful
feeling. 1t shows q decrease Of 81

1884 and even the suhas--
crease of IfarS -santial de
