Obituary,

Died at her home one mile south Of
Johnson City at 10o'clock am. May 81,
1886, Mrs. Julia c. Hardin. wife OF j.
G. Hardin, and daughter OF Geo. D.
and Lucinda Williams. The deceased
was born in Carter Co., April 10, 1912
and at her death was Al years, one
month and 8 days old. She was uni
ted in marriage to ]. G. Hardin Dec. 4.
1861 the result of this marriage was six
children two daughters and four sons,
two of which persuaded her to the spir-
it land. She leaves husband two
daughters, two sons and large circle
of relatives and friends that dearly
loved her. II unceasing care on the
part of her family and friends, and
constant medical skill could have per-
petuated existance, we should still
enjoy her company but human help
and sympathy failed to protra ct her
stay on earth. "The Lord gave and
the Lord hath taken her." And we
bow in humble submission to his man
dates knowing that his ways are just,
though to us inscrutable.
Sister Hardin lived a CONSTANT,
faithful and devoted member OF the
Christian Church for IL years, and
died in full hope Of a blissful immor-
tality.
The unusually large crowd present
at the funeral attested the high esteem
in which she was held. The sad coun-
tenance and tears of the entire audi
ence at the close of the funeral service
witnessed the love they had for the de-
ceased, and the high respect they en-
tertained for the bereaved family.

Truth Stranger Than Fiction

truth is stranger than fiction.
Within the past three days the lail-
roads of the south have performed a
feat which few years age would have
required weeks, and would have de.
ranged commerce beyond measure.
The guage has been changed ON thou
sands OF miles of track and the trucks
under hundred thousand cars. To
do this required the services of an ar
my OF men, who worked all day and
the stiffness OF the night was broken
by the sound Of q hundred hammers,
driving the spikes which hold in place
the steal rails over which pass the
commerce OF the sunny south.
And, behold, while the people slept
this great chance has taken place,
which is to work changes they have
not yet dreamed OF. Now the cars
loaded at our depots may be hauled,
without change, to every state in the
union, and the products OF other Sec
tons will reach us with facility be-
fore unknown, and we are brought in
to relations with other sections of the
republic closer than ever before exper-
fenced.
And all this in the twinkling of an
eye almost, for now it is an accom-
plished fact. The old order of things
was rung out with Monday and Tues
day rang in the new. Commerce goes
on without arrangement and with
greatly increased facilities. The re-
suit will soon be seen in the largely
increased shipments Of our heavier
products, especially marble. The
change will help the railroads and
will help the country traversed by
them, Especially is this true Of East
Tennessee. There is no end to the
enterprise Of American railroad men,
and never has it been more strikingly
displayed than within the past three
days. The achievement is one to
boast over. 1t is a good subject for a
Fourth of July Grafton, and as the
American eagle scars to his Hottest
heights, he may scream his loudest
notes over the wonderful transforms
ton wrought in these few hours

1t seems to us that ALI Taylor
would get tired at some time Of empty
honors. For eight years he has done
active work for his party, but has
never received anything substantial
in return. But we suppose AlPs
friends think he has gotten used to a
moonshine diet and that it ought TO
be continued as long as he is willing
to submit to it. Upon that principle
it is now the programme to give him
the nomination for Governor in an
absolutely hopeless contest. If he
has the stomache for this fight, al
right.
