COUNTY NEWS.
CARRIERS MILL.

JUNE 2S.-Our farmers, with few ex.
ceptions, are done harvesting wheat and
have their corn in pretty good condition.
Our wheat. as a general thing, is not as
good as was anticipated a short time be.
fore harvest. but upon the whole we do
not think we have any reasonable ground
for complaint. Oats were never more
promising, and if nothing befalls them
we will have an abundant crop.
There have been several cases of
cholera morbus within the past few days.
Otherwise the health of our community
was never better.
Miss Florence Wilson left us last Tues.
day for Arizona Territory TO visit her
uncle. She has the best wishes Of a
llrge circle of friends for a safe and
pleasant journey.
&The families Of w. +. Simpson and ].
NJ. CARRIER leave today for a two months
s%ojourn at Clark's Springs. MI. Simpson
accompanied them. We wish them a
pleasant time, and hope they Gill return
much improved in body and in spirits.
Noah Eutsler has organized a singing
class at Loyd's Hill, a new school house
near here.
X. NJ. Young has disposed of his
brandy at a very low figure. The new
ruling of the internal revenue department
requiring the payment of the taxes within
four months makes it rather hard on
brandy distillers. From conversations
with distillers on this side of the county
we infer very little, if any, brandy will
be made this fall. This will be gratifying
news TO temperance people. We have a
good many of this class In our section,
but more who are goipg so far as to
forget their allegiance and devotion to
the Republican party as to swap off Mcc.
Wagner for Mr.. Mettetal. Mr.. Wagner
has always been a temperance man, and
is running on q temperance platform, and
is the nominee Of a regular Republican
convention, and no genuine, simon pure
Republican will bolt him. q.
The nomination of Hon. A. A. Taylor
for governor was hailed with delight by
every Republican and some Democrats
here. We all believe "Alf," if not
elected, will cause his opponent much
hard work and uneasiness Of mind.
In regard TO the Pictorial candidate VIC
prefer E. A. Shipley, but will be satisfied
with either Of the three spoken Of and
give him a rousing vote.
Mr.. Samuel Peoples of Hamblen coun.
ty was married to Miss Whey Keplinger
of this place a few days ago. l under

Emcline Carr was born July 10Th, 1919;
died, June IA, 1886, aged 66 years, 10
months and 30 days, She was the daugh.
ter of Jacob and Nancy Hartsell. Her
father was a distinguished colonel in the
"Blackhawk' war. She was married to
James NJ. Carr Dec. 10, 1886. She had
been a member Of the Baptist church for
more than 40 years. As a member of the
church she ever "lct her light so shine
that others seeing her good works might
be constrained TO glorify our God. As a
christian she was an example worthy of
imitation. In society she was an orna.
ment. AS q neighbor and friend, those
who know her will be a record of her
christian duty. AS a devoted mother she
was unexcelled. That dread destroyer of
humanity, consumption, after n struggle
OF nearly 20 years, conquered its victim.
During her many years of terrible suffer.
ing her life was distinguished for humble
heroic christian devotion and fortitudc.
She left the glorious assurance of that re.
ward worth striving for, which King
Jesus has promised all his faithful sol.
diers, and which her life of more than 40
years will amply attest. Many relations
and friends survive her in whose memory
she will be loved and cherished long af.
ter her grave has grown green. To the
weeping children, (all of whom survive
herr 10 the heart broken grand children
and to the surrounding friends: Let us
not lament for one who has exchanged q
life of pain for an eternity Of bliss, but
endeavor TO live so that when the final
summons comes to Ego hence" that we
will meet the one we love in n place
where nothing win ever again disturb our
eternal fclicities. w. NJ. V.

DISTRICT.

JUNE 3O.-We had nearly thirty wet
days during this month; and Che signs
are favorable for more rain. Our farmers
are on o standstill on account of the con-
tinucd rains. They can neither pillow nor
nov, and their wheat Is in danger of
%sprouting in The shock as It is too wet
for them to haul 1t in. The crop is good,
though a little short Of our expectation.
W. r. Deakins and Mr.. w. r. Reeves
have two of the best fields Of wheat be.
tween the river and Jonesboro. The
oats crop is the best so far Tor years.
They are free from rust, and If nothing
happens, oats will be plenty. Our mea.
dows are generally good, perhaps better
than usual. Corn looks tolerably well,
though but few of our farmers have been
over their corn as often as twice.
Messrs. D. F. Allison aud G. NJ. Dea-
kins, two young men of this district,
have bought the right for this county for
q patent gate.
A belfry has recently been put ON the
Boon's Creek church, and q new bell
placed therein. This certainly speaks
well for the members of both the church
and Sunday school at this place.
Mr.. M. X. Hankel, miller at Mr.. w. b..
Bowman's mill, ground his first turn of
new wheat on the 21st of this month.
Aunt Susan Brumitt, wife of David
Brumitt, and sister Of Elijah Barlow,
who has for some time been living on
the farm of J. A. Werley, near Blizzard,
died Tuesday at 1 o'clock, p. IN,
The Sabbath schools OF Marvin's and
Boon's Creek churches, aided by the
friends of the prohibition movement, are
to have q grand picnic about the 20 Of
July, There will be several addresses
by prominent persons, in~terspcrsed with
both vocal and instrumental music. Let
everybody attend.
Mrs. II. Il. Depew is some better.
Our school directors want teachers the
coming term that can teach vocal music.
They have music charts for that purpose.

quiet village and its surroundings.
Many Of our farmers are putting the
last blowing to their corn, while Others,
more advanced with their work are haul.

Mr.. J. G. Moore has just finished haul.
ing up his wheat. He says that he has a
fine crop.
Corn is looking exceedingly fine, con.

The apple crop is almost destroyed, by
a small yellow bug.

The Railroad Sale,

At a special term of the Supreme Court,
held at Knoxville, a few days since,
Judge d. NJ. Key presiding, the sale of
the E. T., V. & G. r. r. was confirmed.
VIM. Rule, Special Master, reported
that the purchasers had complied with
the terms of the order of sale, and had
paid in the cash as required and also the
first mortgage bonds. Itappears that out
of $14, GOO, 900 of these bonds outstanding,
all but $40, 900 have been filed with the
Central Trust Company by the holders.
Of this $40, 900 in bonds still outstanding,
some are doubtless lost while others are
held by persons who know nothing Of
the reorganization.
The court ordered that the special mas
ter make a deed conveying the road and
all its property, of whatsoever nature, to
the purchasers. Those purchasers were
acting as q committee for the bondhold-
ers. The purchasers, as will be remem.
bered, were Fredric p. Olcott, G. NJ. Nc.
Ghee, Fredric d. Tappan, George War.
rem Smith, and Edmund w. Corliss. 1t
ir believed that Colvin s. Brice, 9. NJ.
McGhee, and Samuel Thomas, control a
majority of the bonds. Under the de.
cree those who take the road are required
to assume and pay off all claims against
the railroad company. The court also
decreed that special master VIM. Rule,
be paid $6,561, for services, that the Cen.
trail Trust company, Of New York, be
paid $4,000, that Butler. Stillman and
Hubbard, Of New York, and Hon. II. B.
Tompkins, Of Atlanta, Georgia, be paid
$4,000 for their services as Solicitors,
and also $1,000 for their expenses. The
day of the sale the special master was
paid 100000 cash, since that time he
has been paid the remainder of the bid,
$1O,250,OOO, in first mortgage bonds.
Nothing now remains but for the own.
crs to take charge. Engine 121 went up
the road Tuesday and took the special
train with the new board of directors
down yesterday.
