Capt. ]. w, Irwin, Of Sparta, has

Capt. ]. w, Irwin, of Sparta, has
been appointed by Mr.. sHillsman as
deputy internal revenue collector, to
succeed Mr.. Robert Park, at this
place. Capt. Irwin was here confer
ring with Mr.. Park this week, and
will take formal charge between this
and the first of August. The Office
will be moved to Sparta upon Mr..
Twins accession, for time at least.
We hope, however, this will be only
a temporary arrangement. Warren
is the most central county of the di-
vision, and transacts more business
through the Office than all the balance
of the division together.
There was a general change of
schedule over the Nashville and Chat
tanOoga railroad last Sunday, and
some slight changes were made on
our road. The time for arrival and
departure of trains at all points be-
tween Tullahoma and Sparta will he
found in our directory column. The
character of the trains on this road
are somewhat changed. Both morn
ing trains are mixed trains now, and
both evening trains are passenger
trains. The morning train from
Sparta does not connect with the
north bound train at Tullahoma, as
formerly, but connects with a south.
bound train. The evening train con-
meets at TullahOma with a north
bound train as before. In going tC
Nashville from any point on this
road now, it is not necessary to take
the morning train, as you would have
to lay over at TullahOma until Ala
p. IN. The schedule is not a very sat
isfactory one for passengers whotrave
over this road, but it will probably
continue only during the summer
months.

To the Standard:
We have had heavy rains in the
cove for several days past. We had a
heavy rain on the 9th instant, accom-
panied by wind, and on the 18th two
clouds seemed to meet, and the rain
fell in torrents. Lightning struck l.
G. Clark's stable on the 18th, running
down the two end rafters, throwing
the boards some distance, and other
wise injuring the building. No
horses were injured, as they were out
in the lot around the stable and es-
capped.
Corn is broken off and injured 9th
erwise. We fear wheat is damaged
in the shock; oats are damaged some
in the shock, and some are not cut.
The rains extended into Van Buren,
county, and were heavy as far as we
have heard. Rivers, creeks, and
branches are high.
We attended meeting at old Rocky
River last Sunday. Notwithstanding
the very unfavorable weather, a good
audience was present, it being COM
munion season with the Baptists
at that place. Rev. j. l.. Byars de-
livered the first discourse, and was
followed by Elder Isaac Denton, af-
ter which the church communed and
washed feet. We can compliment
the audience for their good behavior,
for we think it was as good as we
ever saw for so large an assembly, so
uncomfortably situated. 1t certainly
speaks volumes for those that were
present.

Killed by a Rat Bite.

Shelbyville Gazette.
On the 1st inst. there occurred one
of the most strange, sad and terrible
deaths in the 10Th district we have
ever heard of. While the wife of Mr..
r. A. Adams, who liyes just across
the Marshall County line, was engaged
in killing rats, she was bitten in the
little finger on her right hand. At
first the bite was so insignificant that
she took no notice Of it. After she had
been bitten some ten or twelve days,
her finger began to pain her. At first
she refused to have physician called,
but the pain increased so fast that she
finally consented, when Drs. Allison
and Davidson were called in. They
did all they could to relieve her, but
invain. Her suffering increased for
eleven days and nights, when death
came to her relief. She was perfectly
same to the last, and only prayed for
fortitude to bear her pains. which
prayer was answered TO the utmost ex-
tent.

The first speaker introduced was
Mr.. James Martin, who advocated in
terms as strong as could be made, the
principles elucidated in the platform
Of the county ticket.
Mr.. Martin was followed by Aleck
Hardy. His speech was devoted to an
explanation of his position. The most
important part of Alexis speech was
that " Beck's pockets were well filled,
and he had had all Of his pockets

Aleck. HE has been there six years,
and he has filed six pockets. II you

Edward Morgan made a random sort
of speech which was filled with logic
and argument. When he got through
the laughter was immense as nobody
knew what he was driving at.

made a sensible talk-after which
several other speakers expressed theiI

looking back, he saw his wife and child
enveIOped in flames. Mrs. Stanton
persisted there and her child was so
badly burned that 1t died the next day.
The FIRE parted at the house and left it
untouched. A few thousand bushels
of wheat and a barn or two burned at
