Trouble Over Twice-wined Property.

In Judge Walkers court yesterday. piece of
property on South East street was the matter
of controversy. Mrs. Magdalena Holzer. an
aged widow, owned it for fifty years After
selling part of the lot, in 1878, she divided the
other half equally, and gave the north part to
her son, living in Boone county. She retained
the homestead and the next year made will
bequeathins this half to her daughter. Shortly
following this the daughter married Charles
Maier and in time the son invited the mother to
spend part of the year with him. She remain ed
in Boone county nearly year, and durin tho
prolonged visit made another will giving the
homestead to the son. Mrs Holzer died at the
age of eighty, and the son sold the property to
Charles Wagner, who brought suit against
Catharine Maier and her husband for ejectment
The defendants claim an equitable title in the
property. as they cared for the old lady, and
they assert that it was her intention to give the
house and lot to them, as shown by the first
will.

REVIVAL OF BUSINESS.
A Large Increase in the Volume of Trade. Good
Crops and Employment for Everybody.

"The business outlook is quite encouraging, is
it notP asked Journal reporter yesterday aft
ernoon of South Meridian street wholesale
man.
Very encouraging indeed" said he. ''Six
months ago we felt like better day never would
come for Indianapolis, but I feel now like it is
coming. do not think we ever did a better
September business than this year. For six
weeks we have had all we could do, and have
had to increase our force in the paekin g-rooms
The crops have been good this year, the farmers
have prospered. and when they prosper we get
the benefit of it. There is general re-
vival of business in ali branches. The condition
of trade in Indianapolis is 100 per cent. better
than it was three months ago. Look at the
new buildings going up. There has not been
time in ten years when there have been as many
building permits issued here in the fall This
indicates that people are becoming more conf
dent The tearing away o. the old buildings on
the site Of the new Union Depot will give en-
ployment to hundreds of men, and the new
rolling MILL to begin operations will require
between FIVE hundred and thousand hands
There is certainly no reason for complaint
among the laboring men, for every factory and
mill in the city is running full, and some Of
them extra time, in order to keep up with their
orders.

THE EARTHQUAKE.

In last weeks TIMES we gave
the first information of the de-
struction of life by earthquake in
Charleston, s. c., by dispatch from
that city, but we did not have any
other particulars. Since then we
learn that what we gave was hard
ly a drop in comparison to the
deaths recorded and the damage
and destruction of property. In
formation comes to us that eight
tenths of the buildings Of the city
are either destroyed or damaged.
Many houses that are left standing
are uninhabitable, especially brick
buildings. For two or three days
the people largely lived in the
streets and public squares outside
of buildings, so fearful were they Of
more shocks. More than a dozen
shocks have been experienced,
some of which were light and did
no damage; but the people were
unwilling to take shelter in their
houses, fearing heavier shocks and
falling of the buildings. The
deaths will probably be between
one and two hundred, while the
damage to the property is esti-
mated all the way from five to ten
millions of dollars.
The most intense excitement pre-.
vailed throughout the city. The
colored people were holding prayer
meetings in many streets, asking
God to have mercy on them. Bust
ness was almost entirely suspend
ed. In many of the streets the
passage was closed up by the fallen
houses. A writer, speaking of how
it looked outside of Charleston,
says:
All along the line from Ravenals
Station, twenty-five miles distance,
evidences of terrible disaster are
plainly visible. The earth is crack
ed in numerous places and the fis-
sures, while not wide, are of un-
known and apparently unfathama-
BILE depth. A bluish-gray sandy
mud, of the consistency of paste,
and evidently forced up from the
earth far below the surface are to
be seen on all sides, while the color
of the stagnant water in the pools
indicates that it oozed up from
veins that would never have seen
the surface except by some ire
mendous convulsion of nature. The
railroad is under water in some
places between here and Charles.
ton, twenty-five miles north of here
and the earth has caved in in sew

MORE RAILROADS.

In an informal interview with
some of the Richmond and Dan
vile and l.. & n. Railroad officials,
and through outside information,
the TIMES reporter became salts
fed that the slate, as made out by
these companies, is to buy the Nor
ristown and Unaka branch of the
E. T., V. & G. Railroad, and then
connect there with a line OF
road to be built by the L. & n, or at
some point near Jellico or Cumber.

plished, you will hear no more about
the Knoxville connection, from
Unaka via Sevierville and X. & A.
r. r. If, however, this should fail,
then a line may be built in this di-
rection, tapping the X. & A. road
either at Tipton's or Maryville, but
most likely at Tipton's; but in
either event the X. & A. road may
be built into North Carolina as
originally intended. 1t will be
noticed that in all the articles pub
lished in the Tribune and Journal,
there is want of positiveness in
all statements as to the probabili-
ties of building either of the lines
indicated. The Cincinnati South.
ern, with Emory Gap, is out of the
question, because Knoxville failed
and in all the projects spoken Of
they are on condition that help to
the amount of 100000 be furnished
by Knoxville. This settles the
question that all these routes
spoken of will fail, because the aid
asked will net be given. The bust.
ness of Knoxville would like more

ed in the E. T., V. & G. r. r., and
therefore, no help will come from
the city, unless it be individual aid
and that will not attract much. A
line of road through Morristown,
via Cumberland Gap, would large
ly destroy the wholesale trade OF
Knoxville, from Western North
Carolina, and in the event Of build
ing a line down the Little Tennes.
see, via Emory Gap, which is only
question of time, the wholesale
trade of Knoxville will feel the
power of competition as she has
never felt it. The TIMES has ad.
mired the zeal of the Tribune, in Its
labored articles in favor of the in.
terests of Knoxville for more rail.

efforts of daring done by Don
Quixote, in his zeal and love fol
chivalry; and there is no doubt but
the effect will he as great and as

There is an effort now being made

Democrats and Republicans must

nine Senators they will be able to

The State Central Committees
have agreed upon a joint canvass
between the two brothers, ALI and
Bob. This will be a spectacle
never witnessed before in this coun-
try in politics. We knew a case
between two brothers by the name
of Dooley, who lived in the State
of Ohio, who always fell in love
with the same girl; and when one.
would start the other would follow
And it was generally known, or
suspected, by the latter when the
former was going, so a holly con-
tested race determined which one
would go in to spend the evening
with the girl. We have seen them
going down the road past our home
on horseback, with their horses at
their topmost speed. Sometimes
there would not be a hundred yards
between them. The one who ar
rived first went in, and the other
turned and dejectedly went home
to pout because his brother had
beat him. In this Gubernatorial
race we suppose the fur will fly, be-
cause the people will expect it.
They may be able to control them.

VENTILATION,

Many persons build their dwell
ing houses without observing the
true laws of ventilation. Indeed,
there are those who build a house
having but single room. In this
room the family lives, sleeps, cooks,
eats, &C., with one small window;
when the time arrives to retire for
the night, the doors and window
are closed, while family of eight
or ten persons sleep in the same
room for weeks and months,
breathing the impure atmosphere
for eight hours each night, until
sickness results, and even then the
odors and impurities of the sick
room are added.
TO enjoy pure, sweet rooms, great
care should be exercised in having
perfect ventilation, as this is one of
the essentials of good health. Win
dows made for easy and perfect
ventilation are cheapest parts of
the house, as doctors bills are not
so long, neither as frequent.
1t is better to sleep under a mum.
Der of blankets with a pure atmos-
phere than in hot room with one
sheet, for what you lose in buying
blankets you make up in saving to
the medicine chest and doctors
bills.

Rev. Geo. Haddock, of Sioux City

The Democratic newspapers
think that ALT is very foolish for
agreeing to joint discussion with
his brother; thatBob is so full ofvul-
gar anecdotes that the people who
assemble to hear them will laugh,
and boot ALT so he will not be able
to accomplish anything for himself
or his party. 1t may be true that
where man cannot present argu.
ment in favor CT his party, low, vul.
gar anecdotes will be the winning
card, especially with ignorant men,
but to men of sense solid argument
is what they want, and that is what
ALT is able to give them. AS a

entertain an audience better than
