bloom and innocence Of girl-hood, she
gave her heart to the Savior, and join
ed the ranks of those who follow Him,
and as she endeavored by her gentle
bearing and faithful performance of
duty in everyday life, to humbly serve
Hlm-therefore, while we bow be-
meath this Christening from Him who
hath $50 loved us"-we sorrow not
without hope, but, rather as seeing by
faith within the veil, where her life
barque is anchored, for ever safe from
all storms Of sorrow or sin. And
Resolved, That from our hearts,
which feel also deeply this sad be-
reavement, we, the officers, teachers
and pupils Of the Sunday School Of

stricken parents, sisters and brothers
Of our deceased friend, our warmest
sympathy, and sincere prayers, that
He who was a "man of sorrows, and
acquainted with griefs,D may comfort
them, as He alone can--and may God
grant that we all, and especially the
young people of this Sunday School
may receive and cherish in our hearts
the lesson Of her gentle life, and heed
the warning of her early death.
Resolved, That copy Of these res
olutions be furnished for publication
to the Enterprise and COMET, two pa
pers published in Johnson City, Tenn.
and that a copy be also furnished tx
the parents of the deceased, and tina
they be spread upon the REGARD of on,

The Caroline Islands difficulty was
rapidly becoming dramatic. The
tragedy opened with couple Of men
of-war whose broadsides were glaring
at each other, and with German and
Spanish marines whose mouths were
full Of untranslatable oaths. The
ebullient citizens of Madrid were
wroth at Bismarck's brusque way Of
saying cts mine" the moment he
saw land on the Pacific horizon. An
indignant procession, broken windows
in the German representatives offices
satirical, furious rnd incendiary edi.
torials were the first crop Of public
opinion produced by the news of seiz
ure.
The tragedy has ended, however
before the plot was fairly developed

Mr.. P. A. J, Crockett, of Carter coun-
ty, died at his home on Buffalo last
Thursday, after a short illness. 1t is
melancholy pleasure to speak of his
vi.tues after he is gone. Mr.. Crockett
was an honest man, and in these de-
generate days that is saying a good
deal. What more need be said of him
than that he was an honest man and
good citizen. He was buried with
the honors of a Mason last Friday. A
special train took the Johnson City
Lodge out to attend the funeral.

From the Taylorsville Tomahawk.

From the TaylorsVille TOmahawk.
johnson county is diversified with
hill and dale. The soil is in most
parts rich and productive. The differ
ent cereals are grown to perfection.
The various grasses thrive and do well.
AS a fruit and vegetable growing
country she takes a front position.
The climate is mild and delightful.
Her mountain scenery is beautiful
and unsurpassed The cool gentle
breezes with which one meets on every
hand, are healthy invigorating and
life giving, Pure spring water in
copious supplies to be found almost
everywhere. Her natural resources
are better iron ore beds, and more of
them than can be found any where in
the same amount of territory. Her
timber supplies are almost inexhaust-
ible. Add to this a number of water
courses sufficiently strong to run all
kinds of machinery and you have a
brief sketch of Johnson county.
With all the foregoing advantages
taken into consideration, the capitalist,
desiring to invest his money in manu-
featuring, can not find better field
than is presented in our county.
The great lack is railroad communities
ton and development. Let the rail-
readers stretch parallels of steel
through johnson county. Let the
shrill whistle Of the "iron-horse' be
heard echoing through our hills and
valleys. Let capitalists come into our
midst utilize and develop the natural
elments of wealth which everywhere
abound. And then it is that our noun
tain and hills which have hitherto re-
NAMED in an undisturbed primitive
state will blossom as the rose, and
yield a liberal remuneration to both
employer and employee.
