A World of Happiness.

A freshly married couple from
the rural districts came to town
last Friday to do their trading.
Notwithstanding the scorching rays
of the sun, which at the middle of
the day were coming from every
direction, the couple stood on the
streets in very familiar attitude.
The personal property, household
goods, live stock, bonds, stocks, etc.,
were locked up in a little hand.
satchel which he carried. While
buying two teacups and saucers,
two plates and a few knives and
forks, the newly made husband oc.
casionlly gave the bride loving
glance, with the words, "Now, dear,
get anything you want to; I've got
the money! After such an exhibi.
ton it became necessary to supply
the demands of the inner man-and
woman-and so the remaining thir.
teen cents were spent accordingly
The couple sat on rock in front Of
the store, smiling at each other al
every bite. But let us leave them
there, quietly determining where
to spend the night.

A LITTLE SENSATION.
A Room u,l of Smoke and no fire

The room on Main Street, form.
erly occupied by g. Plane, has
been re.fitted. New shelving and
new counters have been made, to
which has been given considerable
labor. The counters having been
completed, the painters were at
work, last Friday, oising them.
Several ingredients were used in
the mixture, the principal one being
linseed oil. The workmen, in rub
bling the counters, used a large
handful of rags, and these became
saturated with the oil, the con.
slant friction naturally produced
heat. At night the rags were
thrown in a pile on the counter and
the house closed. $3.50
Early Saturday morning smoke
was seen issuing from the cracks
around the door and windows, and
the room 80 full that no object
could be seen. An entrance was
speedily forced and a search wai
made before the cause of the smoke
was discovered. The rags were

had burned in the counter under

combustion. The room had beer

over East Tennessee, and will leave

Some folks say that there was a
band present from Knoxville. We
didn't see nor hear any.
There was but one drunk man
seen on the streets during the whole
day, and he was Knoxville Demo-
craft.
1t has been settled by the State
Committees that the two brothers
shall make a joint canvass of the
State, Maryville won't get a joint
discussion.
III just wish Tom Williams would
come over and speak against Aft"
remarked a young Democrat Mon
day. Guess he changed his mind
about two o'clock yesterday.
Knoxville raised $500 to bring
a band down, and Maryville fur
nished the remaining $500. We
were thereupon expecting some mu-
sic, but were greatly disappointed.
We really would have been pleas
ed to see Bob with his fiddle trying
to entertain the crowd with song
and dance. Or, perchance, the pat
ent-salve man would have hired him
to draw q crowd.
A leading Democrat of the coun.
ty said to the reporters 81 dom,
like to acknowledge it, but believe
every word Aft said. 1t was to thu
point, and cut to the right and left
especially the Blair Bill discussion.
The salve man was on the street
yelling in pitiful tones. He didn'
sell much salve; and when, after tn
speech, he again began to cry alout
the musicians struck up, made
louder and more pitiful noise ant
drowned him out.
We present our readers to.da,
with a handsome picture of Al
Taylor. Cut it out and have j
framed, and when, in a short time
you are asked to purchase a pictur
of Governor Taylor, you can tel
the peddler that you have one.
1t was great disappointment t
some of the Democrats becaus
Bob didn't come. Bob was afrai
to come to Blount, because h
thought there wern't enough Dem
ocrats in the whole county to max
a respectable applause after one {
} his jokes.
!, A Knoxville Democrat, who list
6 ened to the speech, said it was tn
6 finest thing he had ever heart
, "Bob," said he, els in an awkwar

The Democrats who heard IL
t speech were completely "stumped
: over the remarks on the expend
ture of money for Tennessee educ'
tional purposes. One of their nun
Der said that if Blount county woul

cost only fifty cents and you nothing

The laboring men Of Tennessee
ought to vote the Republican ticket
this fall, because the Republican
party is opposed to the Penitentiary
convict lease system opposed to
bringing convict labor into compe-
tition with honest labor; while the
Democratic party is the author of
this abominable measure and, as yet,
has taken no definite and decided
steps towards its suppression.
The people ought to vote the Re-
publican ticket because the Republi-
can party has taken the lead in the
Submission question, as it does in
every other question. The Democ.
racy, as is its custom, has simply
fallen into line and is bringing W
