DR.. j. B. shearer.

The South Carolina Presbyterian
says: The Presbytery had the pleas
ure of listening to an address of great
power by Rev. DR.. Shearer, the Pres
ident of Davidson College, on the
subject of Christian education in gen
eral and Biblical instruction in par
ticular. The visit of DR.. Shearer was
enjoyed by all, and the friends of
Davidson are delighted with the
prospect now before their beloved
college. The impression was not only
most happy, but most profound, as
was manifested by the close attention
of the large congregation, the cordial
reception of the speaker, the alternate
tears and smiles of the listeners, and
the universal commentator after
wards heard.

en- WINGS OF Lowe.
Two Souls with but Single Thought
Wing Their way to Crowns Of Bliss.

Just as the clock struck ii last
night, a very pretty marriage oc-
Cured in the Arlington Hotel par
Tors wherein the futures of Mr..
Thompson Ne. Hardin, prosperous
young farmer, and Miss Lucy Bib,
both of Logan county, KY, were
sealed by Rev. w. R. PEBBLES OF the
Methodist church.
The bride is a beautiful little
blonde, the daughter of DIR. r. r.
Bib, of Russellville, who is well
known all over this section of coun-
try. The happy couple were accom-
panied by Miss Lena Rizer, Miss
Nellie Long and Mr.. Bob Mason and
they arrived on the night train from
Louisville. After placing the
ladies in comfortable quarters at the
Arlington, the gentlemen proceeded
to hunt up County Clerk Moseley,
whom they found at home after sew
eral difficulties in reaching there.
Rev. Mr.. PEBBLES had just come
down town from his regular prayer
meeting and was easily found, but
under all the perplexing circum-
stances of getting the proper legal
documents; the ceremony did not
take place until the hour named.
1t was said by parties outside the
wedding party, that the parents Of
the bride objected to the match,
hence the old, old story, "They
were compelled to elope." Quite a
number of persons were present when
the knot was tied. The entire party
returned to Russellville by the early
train this morning.

Chancellor Seay yesterday dismissed
the bill OF the State V. Montgomery
County, and the State appealed to
the Supreme Court. This is the case
in which Comptroller Pickard insists
that the county has been collecting
illegal fees from the State for the
board of prisoners at the Jail, and
upon which opinion he now refuses
to pay to the county any jail fees.
The court decides that the fees col
ectedwere legaland properly charge
able to the State. The cases involv-
ing the question Of right to custody
of the Jail and the constitutionality
of the act placing it in the hands of
the Jail Commissioners, have been
heard, but no decision yet rendered.

Last Nights Play.

One of the most pleasing public
performances that has been witnessed
in Clarksville for long time was
that OF the Newton Beers combina-
ton in Lost in London, at Elders
Opera House. The house was pack
ed and the audience was beautiful
to look upon. Every participant in
the play was commented upon fav-
orably, while the scenic effect was
an agreeable surprise to the Oldest
theatre-goer psesent. Such a compa-
ny as this justly deserves the public
patronage at every stand made dur
ing each season.

LOG CABIN LOGIC.
Drawn and Brain A!

Drawn and Brain
The powerful engine, with its
wonderful propelling power, coupled
to the long train full freighted with
the richest fabrics of the intellectual
looms of the centuries-What obsta-
cles can stay the progress of this
mighty force when once under full
steam along life's highway?
The american will Drawn and brain
does not see the necessity for titles
of nobility, does not care for eleva-
ton by descent, he can reach out and
pluck the stars.
But with Drawn or brain impaired
a man is badly handicapped in the
mad race for success which is the
marked characteristic of the persent
age.
The physical system is most in
tricate piece of machinery. 1t ought
to be kept well regulated, so that it
will work tremendously in all its
parts, then it is capable of an inn
mense amount of work.
1t is said that watch, if expected
to keep perfect time, must be wound
daily. 1t will not keep good time
unless it 'ssruns regular" More men
break down because they don't run
regular than any other reason.
1t is claimed by physicians that
few men are killed by hard work. 1t
is to the irregularities of modern So
cial life that the high death rate is
due. Men burn their candle at both
ends, then wonder why it burns out
so quickly.
The main thing in keeping the hui
man machine in good working order
is to keep the regulator all right.
"The blood is the lite" and sound
health is assured so long as the blood
flows through the veins a limpid
stream of purity.
Regulate the regulator with War
ner's Log Cabin saraparilla, the old
fashioned blood purifier, prepared af-
ter the best formula in use by our an
cestOrs in good old Log Cabin days
and with the vigor of Drawn and
brain which must ensue, in your
life's lexicon you will find no such
word as fail.

Look Out, Down Oar!

Old Susan Stoner, the colored fe.
male slugger Sullivan, of GAINESVILLE,
was tried before acting recorder S.
A. Caldwell to-day for disturbing the
peace by raising a ruction with Kitty
Williams or Wooten, down in black
hog row. The evidence showed that
Susan lived up stairs, ond her habit
was to watch her neighbors below
and throwslOp from the window upon
them. One of these capers brought
on a wool pulling which caused
officer Holleman to yank Susan in.
She was fined Sc which she promptly
refused to pay. Susan will quit her
foolin', and work on the rock pile a
term.

Something About Produce.

There are many people in this part
Of the state unaware of the fact that
many roots and herbs native to the
soil, and existing in profusion, are
very valuable and in great demand.
The article Of ginseng is worth 1925
per pound in this market and the
buyers will take any amount offered
them. Yellow root, spignet, sarsa-
parilla ana several other kinds Of
roots that heretofore have been con-
sidered worthless as merchandise can
now be sold readily at fabulous prices.
All these roots should be dug, gath
cred and properly dried in the fall,
instead of spring as many people
think, and are then always the most
valuable. Pelts and furs Of all kinds
that are taken and properly handled
in the fall and winter are always
preferable and bring the highest
prices. Hunters and trappers should
observe great care in taking skins
from animals; always cutting the
hide with good sharp knife and
keeping the edges smooth, then in
drying them it is best to stretch them
well on board, with the fur inside
This information is printed for the
benefit of the very poorest classes
who can make living by gathering
and selling the articles mentioned.
