1t was quite an affair, aud the only

was about Fifty feet long and three
feet high. They had built it where
a log had fallen across the bayou,
which helped them considerably.
We estlmated that they had done
about twenty dollars worth OF work
on it, and had the effect Of making
a little lake Of their own. Last year
they cut down trees IS inches thica

Now that bowel disorders, such

a single instance. Every steamer

ON WHEELS.
News Dots Along the Line from Tul-
lahOma to Sparta.

Specially Reported for the STANDARD:
We are glad to report that all who
were on the sick list last week are inn
proving.
We are glad to note that business is
picking up again. Travel has in
creased greatly during the last few
days.
Drummers are plentiful now on
every train, and the baggage master
frequently boils over with wrath be-
cause some of them insist on carrying
an entire store with them.
We are glad to see Mr.. Tibbs, our
old and efficient postal clerk, back at
his post.
Wheat is coming out great deal
better than was expected. Some
fields along the line are looking green.
Warren county can claim the incest
field on the road.
Peach trees are in bloom again, but
we fear the heavy frost of Thursday
morning last will prove fatal to the
crop.
G. p. Conner, when last seen at Tul-
lahoma en- route to New York with a
car load Of chickens, was an object of
sympathy. He looked like he had
lost his last friend. &e wish him a
pleasant and profitable trip.
The infant son of Mr.. and Mrs Jno.
Ruston, of Sparta, died last Tuesday
and was carried to McMinnville for
burial Wednesday morning.
Mr.. Jenkins, of Tullahoma, lost his
house and everything it contained by
fire on the night of the 7th. No one
was at home at the time, and it is
thought the house was first plundered
and then set on fire. The guilty par
ty should be caught and punished to
the full extent of the law.
Prospectors from the North are on
almost every train now. They all
say they want to find a warmer eli
mate. Among the number to arrive
last week was j. w. Phonis and his
brother, from Ogden, Ill. They stop
ped at Manchester, and Monday j.
w. Phonis was brought on board the
morning train crazy. He went de-
ranged a few days after he came
down, and his brother was taking
him back home, where he has a wife
and one child.

NASHVILLE MARKET REPORT.

Corrected from the Nashville Union every
Thursday evening.
The general trade was fair to-day.
A frmer feeling prevails in breadstufs.
Flour was firm and active at an
advance in all grades. The advance
is based upon the upward movement
in spot wheat in the Western market
and the increased demand.
Wheat continues firm with an up>
ward tendency. Millers' stocks are
light, and the amount held by dealers
is not large.
Corn was steady and in good demand
at previous prices.
Bran was very firm and a shade
higher.
Groceries were in fair demand. The
quotations on sugars and coffees were
fractionally reduced, but the general
tone of the market was steady. Salt
was very firm, an advance IN freight
equivalent to cents per barrel having
recently occurred.
Country produce was quiet and I'm.
changed. Eggs were dull. Butter was
steady and demand good. Poultry was
unchanged. Feathers were dull at
quotations. Seed potatoes both sweet
and Irish, continue in good demand.
The former are very firm.

The wild phantoms and shrieking cries of
worthless humbug can make money by i'm.
dosing upon the credulity and ignorance of
an honest public, and the supply of this
species of work seems more than adequate
to the demand.
The enupciation of facts-facts that have
stood crucial tests-facts proven by brain
force and tangible evidence, should satisfy
all laudable enterprises; but the execrable
habit OF teaching false ideas and doctrines
for self ACKNOWLEDGEMENT is truly reprehensi
BILE, and should be scorned by all classes.
When VIC tell the public that B. B. B., the
great Blood Poison Remedy, contains Iodide
of Potash as one of its ingredients, and when
we, as old members of the medical piofes
sion, say that Iodide of Potash is not poi.
son, we think it very presumptive for men
outside of the profession to asser that it is a
poison. The facts do not warrant such a
conclusion, and il those who make the as
sertion that Potash is poison do not know
better, they are a, set of unenriable ignO,
ramuses.
As solid foundation of heavy masonry
has been built for B. B. B., upon which it is
now proudly perched-the broken arches
and fallen columns of brazen humbugs will
soon be in search of fresh ''cock and bull''
stories aud more printers'ink, but merit can
not be downed. Although B. B. B. is only
year old, yet its effect--its magical and
peerless power over all blood, skin and
kidney diseases, has been indelibly enstamp-
ed upon the tablets of the money of thou.

From Dibroll.

To the Standard;
have been still so long that don't
know whether l could get up little
scrap of anything that would be worth
anything to anyone or not. Every
body seems to be well acquainted with
the hard times, as the saying goes.
We have had a few fine, warm, sunny
days, enough to gladden. the hearts of
all, to know in reality that spring had
come after so long a dark, cold and
dreary winter, but we must remember
that the Lord tempers the wind to
the shorne lamb"
Our most efficient and wholesouled,
clever teacher, Prof. Evans, is having
fine school this spring, one of the
best schools, he says, that he has
ever taught We always expect some
thing to be learned when he takes
charge of a school, as he advances pu.
pills in a manner that they are not to
have first principals taught to them
the second or third time. So we can
see the great Importance of starting
right.
We are expecting soon to have our
neighborhood furnished with new
commodious church house, which has
been much needed for a long time.
Hope that those that feel interested in
the moral training of the youth in this
section, will lend helping hand and
give such aid as they may feel it their
duty.
We need more good school and
church houses, and then have them
better attended. There is nothing SO
elevating as education and christianity
where these things are neglected, the
people sink down, down to ruin.
Farmers are beginning to realize the
Importance of making more corn and
hay. They have not been so scarce
in number of years as they now are,
save one. There are good many
corn buyers, and it is selling readily
at 75c per bushel, thus showing every.
one the Importance of saving more hay
in the summer. Most any kind OF
grass cut at the proper time, will make
fair hay. We surely could live more
independently if we would use more
industry and economy.
Our neighbor, Mr.. Thomas Sullivan,
has purchased clover huller that he
can operate in connection with his
threshing machine, which is no doubt
a good thing, and would save a great
deal of money that goes abroad, pro-
vided our farmers would save their

McMinnville, Apr. 10, 1885.
In the Western markets wheat is re-
ported higher, on account of which
there is frmness in the Nashville mar
ket for wheat and its products. No
change, however. in prices here. Corn
is still in demand with slight improve
ment in prices. The indications seem
to point to higher prices in the near
future Of both corn and wheat.
Dried fruit still dull everywhere,
with but little prospect of any inns
provement. 1t was never known so
low before in this country.
Eggs are unchanged. Prices in
some localities have fuctuated slightly,
but on account of heavy receipts from
importation from other countries, and
the increased products of this country,
all the Eastern markets are over sup
piled. Eggs are now very cheap food,
and being healthy, should be used freely
as diet in place of meat,
Poultry is in less demand.
Provisions are reported lower in the
West. Stock peas are in demand and
very scarce in this market. 1t would
pay farmers iu this country to grow
peas, at least enough to supply their
wants.
