Sneed's Academy.

AS it has been some weeks since
our community has heen represent
ed in the columns of the CITIZEN we
will try to give few of the current
events of the vicinity.
Since our last writing death
has visited our vicinity. About
three weeks ago Rev. Isaac Maxey
an aged veteran in the christian
warfare was called from his terres-
trial labors to a celestial home
above the skies. He had been sick
for several months.
Another good man follows in
quick succession. LAST Monday at
ter a lingering illness of several
months battling with the coughs
and fevers of an incurable consump-
ton, Mr.. John Braly was called
from earthly scenes to a home be-
yond the stars. He was a man who
had many friends and admirers
who were grieved to lose him.
Hiram Sutton has been very
sick for the last few days but is i'm
proving.
Mrs. Sarah Clayton of Moon,
Wayne county, and Miss Belle
Clayton OF Venus, Lawrence cOun-
ty, were visiting relatives in this
vicinity last week..
Esq. James Clayton and family
of Lawrence county were visiting at
w. P. Whites last week.
Mrs. Jane Moffitt of Pulaski is
visiting at w. H. Pratt's. She will
probably remain a month.
Jack and Miss Mollie Tarpley
returned q few days ago from a
visit to relatives on Shoal creek.
The protracted meeting at
Choate's creek closed last Sunday.
1t was an excellent meeting. The
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Faulkner, was as
sisted in the services by Rev. j. NJ.
johnson.
The prOtracted meeting at
Champs branch is going on under
the supervision of Rev. j. NJ. john
son. The meeting will probably
continue all this week.
"A great many of the people OF
this vicinity went to hear the can
didates speak at Lawrenceburg last
Saturday. JUMBO.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
Mr.. T. K. Marks of Oornersville Robbed
on the Highway Near Pulaski.

Last Thursday night about 8
o'clock Mr.. T. K. Marks of Corners
vile was riding along the pike
about four miles east of Pulaski
when he was halted by q couple of
highwaymen. He says that when
first ordered to hold up his hands
he did not instantly comprehend
their meaning and inquired what
was wanted. One of the robbers re
peated the order with an oath and
emphasized it by presenting a re-
vOlver. Mr.. Marks promptly threw
up his hands. One of the men re-
marked he was mot the man they
were looking for" but the other
suggested that he should be search
ed and he was ordered to dismount.
He saw no possibility of escape and
had no thought of attempting it,
but instinctively began to climb
down Oh the side furthest from
the pistol. The robber quickly OBJ
served it and told him to dismount
on the other side. He held the
horse with one hand and kept his
pistol close to Mr.. Marks head,
while his partner approached from
the rear and rifled his pockets.
They got SO. When they had fin
ished their search they told him
to get on his horse and leave in
a hurry. He says he would not
be able to idestify either of
them, though he noted differences
between them. One was a man of
average size. His face was black
ened though his hands were white.
He seemed nervous and afraid. He
seemed to be trembling when he
put his hand into Mr.. Marks peck
cts. The other was a larger man.
Mr.. Marks thought he would weigh
about 200 pounds. He wore a red
handkerchief over his face. 1t was
he who handled the pistol and did
the talking He seemed perfectly
cool and Mr.. Marks thinks his
manner indicated that the business
of highway robbery was not new to
him.
The night was rather dark and |
the woods and fields near the place |
of the robbery made it easy for the
robbers to escape, had any effort !
been made to capture them. Mr..
Marks says he would not be able to
identity either Of the men, SO it Is
hardly possible that they will ever
be caught. This IS the second |
highway robbery in Giles within a
year and the citizens are becoming
a little alarmed. 1t would not be
very surprising at any time to find
some of these scoundrels hanging to

Columbia District
To tie pastors and members Of til
Methodist EDjscoDoL Church South

To tie pastors and members of tile
Methodist Episcopal Church South:
Judge fuckers plan for raising
our missionary debt has been dis
cussed freely. It's wisdom is doubt
ed by some. DIR. John, our newly
elected secretary says in a card to
me: off our pastors will all raise
their assessments in full this year
we will be able TO meet all our OBJ
legations. This plan is equitable
and beyond criticism. 1t has been
justly apportioned TO US, and there
is not charge in this district but
that can pay its assessment. A ma
jority of our pastors have already
raised the full amount. Brethren,
will you make special effort to
make up the deficiencies on your
respective charges2 it will not eff
feet your other collections if you
make special effort. Let Columbia
district 60 up with every dollar
assessed. 1 hope that those who
have let the larger portion of the
year pass without securing these
collections will double double their
energies from this until October 6.
To the membership: What will
you do TO show your appreciation
of the fruitful season now upon US.
If you are a grateful people let not
deficiency appear on the report OF
your pastor or recording steward at
the animal conference In October.
Let every man, woman and child
in the district help, and let the re
cord of church conferences show
who did and how much as also who
did nothing. L. j. DUNCAN.

Special Rates fer the Remainder of the

Year.
We want to put the CITIZEN in
the hands of every man in Giles
county that can read. AS a means
to this end we now make a special
offer. For the remainder of this
year we will send the CITIZEN to
any Office in the county at the ex-
tremely low rate of TEN CENTS
A MONTH. Every man in the
county can afford to pay this
amount for such paper as the CIR
IzEH. This offer is only extended
to those who pay up all amounts
due on old subscriptions and cash in
advance for the remainder of the
year. You can easily avail your
self of this offer. The wheat crop
will put good deal of money in
the county and you can spare the
small amount you owe US, and
FIFTY CENTS for the remaining
five months of this year.
This is to be a season of political
excitement and every man in the
county should have at least one pa
pei, and we are determined that the
CITIZEN shall meet all demand.

Sam Jones Corrected,

Special to the Courier-Journal.
ATLANTA, Aug. 2-Some of the
recent extravagant statements Of
Rev. Sam. Jones in relation to
Georgia, cause embarrassment here.
His picture of four bushels of corn
and two of wheat to the acre s
warmly resented by Hon. ]. I. Hen
derson, commissioner of agrlcul-
ture. The commissioner has writ
ten to Mr.. Jones, notifying him in
friendly way that such statements
repeated will call for a formal cor
rection. The fact is that the aver
age production of corn to the acre,
including sections afflicted by
a drouth and allowing for all the de
vastations of adverse elements, is
nine bushels to the acre. That of
wheat is seven, while in large sec
tons of the state the yield is equal
to that ,of the most luxuriant re
gions of the west. The county oil
