Mr.. r. C.. Hansell left Sunday for
Chattanooga but will probably To-
cate in Ft. Smith, Ark. He left
Pulaski with many regrets and left
behind the warmest friends
Wherever he may locate ami what
ever he does, he will make friends
and will do faithfully and well any
thing he undertakes. With sever al
years close business relations, we
never found an intentional omis-
sion of duty and always a strong
energy and will to do and an ability
equal 10 all occasions. The whole
community is partial towards him
and wish him unlimited success.

Mr. Taliafarrn,s snaanh

Hon. E. T. Taliaferro's speech
yesterday in the Jones case was a
great and brilliant effort of an able
man. The court room was crowded
to suffocation. The interest with
which it was awaited and listened
to and the high opinions expressed
of il since its delivery must be pc
culiarly gratifying to him. His
first appearance for several years
before his old clients, constituents
and friends was an ovation and an
expression Of regard and trust that
should urge him to even nobler eff
fort and purposes in his profession

The Universal Cooking Crock is
blessing if it will do half it claims.
Good eating constitutes the best
part of living and we ought to en-

well. This simple vessel is said to
get the very best possible results in
cooking everything. See the little
adv. in this paper and send for cir
cular. 1t is highly recommended
and fills a long felt want. An
agent in Giles could possibly make
it pay.

Mulctiug the BarkeeperS.

The first prosecutions ever known
here under the law regarding the sale Of
liquor to incbriatcs, lave been recently
begun, and ended by compromise.
some time ago the wife Of nh unfortu-
nate citizen who %hnbitually drinks to
excess, served written notices ON sever
81 barkeepers demanding that they
should sell her husband no more liquor.
They either forgot or ignored this warm
ing, and continued to supply drinks.
The result of it was that each of them
received n polite note from IL law firm
inviting him to settle forthwith or take
the chances Of prosecution. The liquor
men considered the subject, and ut last
decided to accept the situation and seek
n compromise. They were left off with
$50 apiece, which most Of them paid.
AS there arc five cases, the wife of the
unfortunate citizen will receive $3.50.
Some Of tho barkccpcrs say there WAS
u conspiracy between man and wife to
get money from them, and are disposed
to pay up good-naturedly like philos-
piers. acknowledging the cleverncss and
success of the trick, and considering it
as so much valuable experience to be
paid for. They will probably be very
careful to obey notices from the wives
and relatives Of drinking mon in the
future.-GreenrjZLe Eeus.
