As your humble correspondent has been
kindo derelict with regard to writing the
news from this section, it is with degree
of embarrassment that L again assume the
responsibility. However US we have no spe-
cial decorum will try to give some of the To-
cal news and other items as they have oc-
cured within the last few days.
There are and have been good many
cases of typho- malaria on the creek, which
seems to be rather hard to control, and it
has been prevailing in nearly every family.
but there has been but one fatal case up to
this writing-that of Tommy Harris, 9-year-
old son of W. S. Harris W. G. Cook has
been quite sick, but is now convalescent. J.
j. Cook is very sick. Bud Allen and Mrs
j. Hall are also sick. So much sickness is
quite unusual in the mountains, but we hope
the recent rains will have good effect and
stop it
AS to crops think corn will average 40
bushels per acre. Sorghum in abundance.
Cotton was seriously cut off by drought in
July and part of August. Since the rains
set in the prospect for fall crop was never
better, but in the past week the worms have
commenced eating it up and have already
cleaned up some fields. Vegetables are
plentiful and the prospect for turnips is
fine.
Politically as general thing the farmers
of this section are studying their interests
more intelligently than ever before. 1 am
sorry that there was SO much demagoguery
used in the nominating conventions, 1t will
ruin any party, Our opinion is that the
ticket for representatives will DO badly
scratched by many good democrats. But
we had as we'll undertake to turn an unruly
OK from water whom he is athirst, as to con-
vince native Texan that Le is in error, es-
pecially If his own financial interest is In
any way concerned. An old darkey said
the other day: DDS country doan' suit no.
body but natives and Mexicans nohow. Dey
send of and bring 'em in to pick de cotton
and gedder de crops to keep down de wages.
II dey done dat in Kentuck and Alabam'

to vote for 'em, but dey can't fool dis darby.

The letter was from st. Louis.
I arrived here this Friday O. m. had .
pleasant trip. I saw such lots of hay and
vast fields of corn. It has been long time
since saw SO much corn and think I new
or saw 10 much hay at tho same time alto

A nouthrrn Cyclone

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March 2l.-Dis-
patches tonight state that the hurri-
cane which did such great damage at
Calhoun, Ga, last night, passed over
East Tennessee at and near Lenoirs.
Much damage was done and several
lives lost. The residence of j. II.
Williams, three miles east of Lenoirs,
was completely swept away and his
wife carried off III the wreck and killed.
The body of Mrs. Williams was found
to-day in the Tennessee river, where ii
had been blown. The next residence
struck by the storm was that of Geo,
w. Hardin. The building was totally
demolished but the family escaped.
The home of James Liningfalter was
reduced to kindlingwood. In it were
John II. Smith, who was killed. and a
little daughter of Liningfalter, had a
leg broken.
The dwellings of William King and
John Gideon were blown down. Seven
members of the King family were bad
ly injured, and Two of the Gideons
were so severely hurt that they cannot
recover. The house of Lafayette
Platter was a total wreck, and Jack
garden fence, but escaped injury.
At Loudon, Tenn, the house of
George Moses was completely des-
troyed and every member of his family
badly hurt. Andrew Worley's house
was also carried away, and the mem
bers of his family barely escaped with
their lives. They are all seriously in
jured. The bacon from Worley' s
smokehouse was blown two miles

ON a Rabbit Hunt.

NEW YORK, March 21.-Eugene
SPOTS, of this city, left for Australia
this afternoon via Chicago and San
Fracisco. lie took with him thirty-six
rabbits, inoculated with an unerringly
fatal and contagious rabbit disease.
He goes on a commission from the
Premier of New South Wales, in hope
OF being able to exterminate the rab-
bits there which have become such a pest
that the government has offered a re-
ward of 25O, 900 for their determination.
The millions of them which are
now devastating the fields have all come
from four ancestors taken to that
country from England in 1947. Mr..
SPOTS will stop in Chicago to meet
some friends from st. Louis, of which
he is a native. He is booked to sail
from San Francisco on the 18th.

women suffragt.rs Convention.

NEW YORK, March 22.-The annual
convention of the New York State
Women's Suffrage Association was
commenced here to-day. Mrs. Lille
Devereaux Blake, of this city. presi-
dent. Resolutions were adopted en-
phasiZing the need of women's in
fluence in politics, and asking the legis-

frage bill.
The afternoon session was attended
by 456 women and eight men. Mrs.
Lille Devereaux Blake presided and
opened the session by reviewing the
women's forty-year war in this country
for the right of ballot. The general
tenor of her remarks was that the de-
sired goal was more or less nearer than
it had been for many, many years.
The exercises of the afternoon con-
cluded with a singing reply by Lille
Devereaux Blake to Rev. DR.. Dix's
recent arraignment of society women,
Mrs. Blake declared that just as noble
hearts beat beneath silks and s9tins as
calico, and she said that DR.. DiX's re.
marks were All insult to the women OF

SCORING the Conrederaey,

BOSTON, March 24.-Mr. Allen
Knowlton has received the following
note from President Ingalls, of the
United States senate:
Accept my thanks for your very
obliging note of tbs Sth inst. l am
glad to know that my sentiments are
approved by the citizens of my native
country. The democratic party is en-
deavoring to reconstruct the history OF
this country, and if they keep on going
for the next ten years as they have
done for the last, it will be impossible
to tell which side prevailed in the late
contest. The Corcoran art gallery here
is full of pictures of rebel generals in
uniform, with not single union COM
mander to keep them company. The
official records of the war of the rebel
lion now being published are horribly
mutilated in order to give color to
events, and they now propose to de-
stroy the manuscript after the volumes
are printed, in order that their misrep-
reservations may escape detection. The
people of the north may wake up from
their Indifference and theiI confidence
too late. The southern confederacy is
an active. organized political power, as
much as it was in 1861.
Very truly yours,
(Signedl JOHN j. INGALLS,.

republicans of this state in convention
to-day by resolution present the name
of William B. Allison to the consider
alton of the national convention for
nomination to the Office of president of

of state pride, but because his quarter
of a century in both branches of con-
gress has been conspicuous for loyal

pies that underlie the government; for
profound knowledge Of the material
resources and needs of the nation; for
great wisdom and skill in finance and
for broad and prudent craftsmanship.
The resolution when read was received

Death a welcome Release.

Must it not be to those who endure
lifelong bodily suffering? From child
hood to old age many persons are tor
mented with rheumatism and neural
gia. Ordinary medication and topical
remedies are of slight, and always Of
temporary efficacy. To escape the ex-
IRENE tortures of these agonizing COM
plants, they should be annihilated at
the outset with HosJetter's Stomach
Bitters, which expels from the system
the acrid impurities that beget them.
The evidence as to its efficacy as a
blood depurent in this particular is
very ample, and strongly concurrent
and convincing. In violent forms Of
these diseases the nerves are terribly
racked. A wineglassful or two of the
the Bitters before the hour of retiring
usually brings a respite from pain, and
enables the sufferer to secure much
needed repose. For kidney troubles,
malarial complaints, Indigestion, liver
complaint and constipation, the Bit
tiers are likewise beneficial.
