A SPECIAL from Red Rock Mimi, says of the
concluding service there of Messrs. Small and
Jones:
'Tns audience in the afternoon was consider
ably larger than in the morning Sam Jones
preached from Acts X g While there was the
usual amount of bluff quaintness about his re
marks, he was much less slangy and fiery. His
bad break on the tobacco question Saturday
evidently inspired him to be more cautious. his
TRADE produced a sensation and much dissatis-
faction--in fact, came near breaking up the camp
meeting"
This is part of what he said on the tobacco
question:
"'rhe good old sisters used to tell me if I'd

naughty man, published the following poem las,
year:
strove to make desert of thy mouth.
To gather all its treasures in an hour
But laughing Love forbade the cruel drouth
And kisses fathered kisses, a flower
Half. hirsty when the summer shower is DONE
Signs family in expanding SO thy lips
Grew signing up to mine. And as the sun s5,
With ardent ray the jeweled pectar sips,
So drank of their beauty. till my soul
Quickened with glad desire as buds in May,
Burst into bloom. And We together stole
The conscience from the hours till all the day
Was one loag kiss; and the dark, jealous night
Prophetic of another days delight.

lust grazing his right cheek. lie then
entered his house and returned the lire,
hitting Benson in the forehead. Benson
claims TINT Dickson was lying in whit for
him aud fred as soon rs he made his
appearance. His wound isnot dangerous.
Both men were arrested by Officer OHrey

showed That Benson was the nggressor
and that he followed up nm assault by
firing AZ Dickson, who hurried into his
house, secured shot gun and returned
the fire. Benson was held in Shuu bal

additional bail for carrying concealed

On Thursday Henry Lewis, colored
enploye of J.. Mccoy, near town, met
with Il rather serious accident. He was
coming into town with wagon load of
peaches for shipment, and when near the
ynnlyke farm the tail of colt got
caught in the lines, The driver bent
down to free it and the wheel of the
wagon went into the causeway trench,
causing an upset. An iron in the front
part Of the wagon caught Lewis in the
lower part Of the stomach and made a
fearful cash all the way round to his
spinal column. His head also received
injuries from the fall. He was taken TO
his homo and the medical services of DIR.
W. N. Hamilton of this town were imme-
diately called into requisition. For a
time il could not be said whether he
would live or not, as besides the injuries
received he had strong hemorrhages. But
the weather being cool, under the able
treatment of DIR. Hamilton he is pro-
crossing fnyorahly.

there were frequent blockades They Mi
scrambled to secure the best stand
Oiork smeltz has remedied this by rennir,
ing each trucker to comply with the law

they are spread along the northerly side
Of Fourth street from King 10

space Of 10 feet along the cnrb
extending eight feet out into lilo
street and three feet Of tho sidewalk
Although some Of them objected AZ tirst
that they would be forced away from tho
buyers, experience proved that their sales
have not diminished, as the BUYERS have
followed the extension of the market on
the clty's wharf, where Charles Newell
mas been stationed AZ assistant, the salno
order prevailed. When a loadoa bont
arrives, some of the empty ones must
leave the wharf to make room. The wharf
Is also divided into spaces, 10 feet wide.
The truckers AFRO pleased at the change,
rs they are all served alike.
