To the Chronicle:
Yesterday was a red letter day fol-
the Methodist church at Adams Station
An interesting revival conducted by
Bro. Beale aided by Bro. Rice has beer
in progress for week. That grand
old patriarch DIR. J. B. McFerrin
preached yesterday morning and
evening. There were eleven joined
the church in the morning, but the
meeting reached high tide at night
when there were eighteen professions
The meeting continues.
The Baptists have thoroughly paint
ed the exterior of their church here
and are to paint and paper the interior
The church will present a new and
neat appearance.
A new store in new house is soon
to be opened.
The new iron bridge across Red
River north of the town will add trade
to the place. 1t makes fine country
easily reached.
The prospects for school are fine.
Mr.. ]. w. Hale one of the teachers, is
a son of Wyatt Hale of your county
Few young men have ever made such
record for rapid progress while a
student as young Hale.
The health of the community is
fine.
Dust and dry weather have ceased
to furnish items of news.

The Noon and the Weather

To the Chronicle;
If there is any connection between
what is commonly called "a change OF
the moon" and rainfall do you think
that Mr.. Sexton can explain why it is
that the rainfall covers such a very
small portion of the area that is cover
ed by the change of the moon ?"
For instance the moon changed in
GAINESVILLE on Monday the 10th inst,
and we had a predicted rain. The
moon also changed at the same time
at Hampton's Station, but they got no
rain there. 1t changed the same time
at Hopkinsville, but they got no rain
there. If the change of the moon
caused rain here, why did it not
cause rain over the whole area covered
by the change OF the moon? There
hasn't been a week this summer but
what we have had rain in some parts
of the GAINESVILLE District, and at the
same time no rain in the other parts,
and yet any day that the moon
changes in one part of the clarks-
vile district, it changes the same day
in every part. viii Mr.. Sexton ex-
plain why a change of the moon, that
brings rain to GAINESVILLE, neglects to
bring it to Hampton Stationi
Very truly yours.

Piles are frequently preceded by a
sense Of weight in the back, loins and
lower part OF the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some affect
ion of the kidneys or neighboring or
gans. At times, symptoms al indiges-
ton are present, fatulenoy, uneasiness
of the stomach, etc. A moisture, like
perspiration, producing very disa-
greeable itching, after getting warm,
Is a common attendant. Blind, Bleed

the application OF DIR. Bosanko's Pile

was written by our old-time friend
Capt Ben +. Egan:
In 1856 the Lexington was com.
pletely destroyed, by the explosion OF
her boilers; l mean the old steamboat,
and have no reference whatever to this
grand, gloomy and peculiar old town,
with Ashland on the one side, the
monument OF Henry Clay on the other,
and a closed park in the middle. The
engine bell is the only relic Of that
once famous boat, and it is now utilized
by Kentucky farm house. Many a
time and oft it has walked me from
peaceful slumber, and called me to
good square meals. But I'll never
hear that bell ring again. / am quietly
looking Death in the face, willing to
sing out, In answer to his summons,
aye, aye, sir; I'm ready" Well, it's
all right, l reckon, for I've long since
eat my share of the chicken pie.

Bathing Club Organized.

A number of young people in the
LIST district of this county have organ
lied what they term THE Tenderfoot
Bathing Club" The object is to enjoy
the very agreeable sport of bathing in
Red river. We copy elsewhere an ar
ticle from the Nashville American
which will show the manner in which
the club is conducted.
1t has long been mystery to us
why, if it is no violation of the rules
of propriety for ladies to battle in the
sea, it should not be all right for them
to plunge into the limpid streams Of
the interior. We are glad that such a
movement has been inaugurated in
Montgomery county.
The Club was organized with the
following election of officers: Charly
McCuddy President, ]. P. Killebrew.
Secretary, Rev. Mr.. Grabeau, Chaplain
Miss Rubie Ross, Instructress in Div
ing; Charly P. McCuddy and Mrs
VIM. S. Jones, Committee on Uni
forms; Miss Dixie Morrison, General
Missionary; Miss Lula Killebrew.
Chief of Commissary; DIR. John w.
Ross, of U. S. N, Medical Adviser.
