HORRIBLE MURDER.
Doctor J. q. Brake. Of Dickson
County, Slain Last Night.
Particulars as Full as They Could be
Obtained up to the Time Of Going
To Press.

A messenger arrived in the city
this morning for the purpose Of pur-
chasing casket for the remains of
Or. ]. G. Brake, OF Woods Valley,
Dickson county, who was assassina-
ted last night between the hours of
6 and Z.
1t appears that the victim, accom-
panied by Mr.. Riley SIayton with
whom he boarded, started down to
the stable to attend to some business
connected with the horses and that
SIayton carrieda lantern. Just as
DIR. Brake attempted to open the
stable door, somebody behind a tree
fired upon and wounded kim. AS
he reeled, he called to Slayton "for
God'i sake help me, / am shot" AS
these words were uttered, two more
shots came, and all three pierced
his body and he fell dead
at the door Of the stable, but his
assassins not being satisfied with the
bloody work already accomplished,
rushed upon him with a gun and
crushed his skull, almost mashing
his head into pulp, and then they
fed. There were three men i'll the
crowd of assassins, and 1T last ac-
counts none Of them had been ar
rested. They are all known; but the
messenger who came for tho casket
refused to tell their names because
he feared personal violence at
their hands. Deceased was Il single
man, but owned a fine farm and had
recently erected fine residence upon
it, and the opinion prevailed that he
intended to be married. soon and
occupy it as his home. 1t is in
timated that young woman was at
the bottom of the trouble, but this
was not definitely stated.
DR.. Brake was Mason in high
standing, being member OF Cum
berland Furnace Lodge, and that
order will attend to his funeral to-
morrow. He was about "a
years old and a native OF
Davidson county.
There is great excitement III the
neighborhood of the occurrence and
the people are in excellent trim to
lynch the perpetrators if caught at
anytime soon.
Since writing the above, officers
from dickson county arrived in the
city, and they allege that George
Tally, of District 1G, this county,
assisted by other relations were the
perpetrators of the crime and
that DIR. Brake was killed
because he had seduced a
Miss Talley who was closely related
to the men who caused his death.
These particulars arc not stated as abb
solute facts, but as rumors alleged by
messengers from the scene Of the
occurrence.

EaAas oLE1RUx.
The Hide and Pelt Business in the AS
cendancy.

Some weeks since the CHRONICLE
contained a paragraph regarding the
value of various roots and herbs that
exist in profusion in this section of
country, and since that time these
heretofore disregarded sources ofmak-
ing living have been resorted to by
many people and they are being sold
in GAINESVILLE at prices that knock
the eye out of tobacco and its present
prices. All kinds of old iron, rags,
feathers, pelts and hides are very
valuable at present, trade in these ar
ticles is brisk and improving, Such
articles should be well cared for until
they are brought to market and the
cleaner the seller can have rags, the
more money they will bring.
There is house of the "rag and
iron" kind near the CHRONICLE
Office, that is decidedly a curiosity
shop, and people that have almost
any kind Of worthless article can sell
it for something at this junk shop.
Hides, pelts, and furs are bringing
good money at this season of the
year, and the neater they are handled
and brought to market the more
valuable they are considered.

Stable Burned.

Hopkinsville New Era of yester-
day says: "The fire alarm that
reused the people of this city from
their sIumbers at one o'clock this
morning was occasioned by the dis
covery that DR.. Hopson's stable was
on fire. The building was frame,
and was burned to the ground ere the
fire company reached the scene with
the engine. The loss is several hun
dred dollars; no insurance. The
doctor thinks some tramp had been
sleeping in the hay filling the stable
loft, and had dropped lighted
match there.
