THIEVES AT WORK.
The Ringgold Vicinity Suffers From
What Seems an Organized Band.

The people in the vicinity of Ring
gold are suffer- ~ from the work of
what seems to be a well organized
band of petty thieves. They went
to the residence Of Jno. Jones on the
Hopkinsville pike one night last
week and stole the hind wheels from
that gentleman's buggy, together
with lot Of harness.
Frank Snaden came to town the
latter part Of the week and purchased
five collar pads. He carried them
home and that night some one stole
every one of them, his buggy cash
ions aud also some harness.
About the same time the Office of
DR.. f. r. Dabney was visited and a
lot OF bed clothing and a case of dis
secting instruments were taken.
Report says that nearly al the
chickens and turkeys in the neigh
borhood have mysteriously disap-
peared and the supposition is that
the same parties who did the above
stealing got the fowls.

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.
Rev. H. B. Reams breaches His First
Sermon to the Methodists.

Rev. II. b. Reams, the newly ap
pointed presiding elder for the
GAINESVILLE District, preached at the
Methodist church yesterday to a
comparatively large congregation.
DR.. West, in few appropriate re-
marks introduced him to the congre
CATION.
Rev. Reams read the ninth chapter
of Paul's Second Epistle to the Cor
inthians, and confined his remarks
principally to the eighth verse, "And
God is able to make all grace abound
toward you, etc."
The sermon, as the text indicates,
was based on the wonderful grace of
God. That grace is all.sufficient if a
man will but accept it. He cannot
be saved except by the blood of
Christ. TO be saved God imposes a
duty on all his children. They must
abound in good works and strive to
gIorify God. If we do good work
God will reward US accordingly.
Somewhere on the journey of life we
may lend helping hand to an un
fortunate brother. Great good may
sometimes be done by this simple
little action. The minister had more
confidence in a mothers love than
almost anything earthly. The love
of his mother in boyhood and later
in young manhood had inspired
him to reach out after better things.
The love and grace Of God, more
eternal and all.sufficieDt, is here to
inspire us to renewed efforts for bet
ter things. And it will save us.
Rev. Mr.. Reams makes no preten.
sions at oratory, but his delivery is
graceful and easy. His language is
chaste and his thoughts are sound.
His sermon yesterday was full OF re
Iigion and made good impression
on the congregation.
Rev. i. w. Dodson, who was APP
pointed to the South GAINESVILLE
work by the recent Methodist confer
ence, preached in the church yester-
day morning and evening. His text
at the morning service was: "Gud
so loved the world" etc. He made a
good impression on his hearers, and
the members over there seem well
pleased with their new preacher.
The church was organized at the
morning service with forty-five
members enrolled. The first quar-
terly meeting of this work will be
held next Sunday and church off
GERS will be elected.
Large audiences greeted the preach
er at the Christian church yesterday,
and last evening the house was mad
equate to hold the congregation and
many were turned away. Three
persons were added TO the church at
session and three at night.
So far there have been twenty nine
confessions as a result of the meeting.
1t was the intention Of the pastor to
close the meeting last night, but the
interest was so great that he an
nounced preaching for this evening,
and the meeting will continue as
long as the interest ju5tifes. Re
the song service begins at
p M, and after the sermon by Elder
Growden, baptism will be admins
tered. All are invited.
Rev. Nathan Gill filled the pulpit |
at the Cumberland Presbyterian
church last evening, preaching an
excellent sermon.

A tall man with bushy black whiskers
entered the Cadillac House yesterday after
noon, and while he was registering placed
long, narrow valise on the counter. A
spring in the valse seemed to have given
way and little door at the side suddenly
flew open, disclosing to the eyes of the by
ISLANDERS thousands of bees working in and
out of honeycomb. There was a small
stampede among those standing about the
counter at first, but all fears were allayed
when the tall stranger explained that they
wouldn't get out and wouldn't do any
harm il they did. He then delivered
short lecture upon the bee and its habits
that proved very interesting and drew
quite a crowd for a few minutes. He said
that his name was j. f. Michael, and that
he was from German, O., where he has
large bee farm He is here visiting the
exposition, and brought his boxful of fine
Italians that he might compare notes with
some of the exhibitors.
When some one asked him if he could
show the queen to him, Mr. Michael Owed
into a capacious pocket and produced
handful Of little boxes, each of which con-
tanned half a dozen common bees and
queen.
Great guns, man." exclaimed travel
ing man, ARE you a walking beehiyeS"
"Oh, no, he responded, "by no means.
These are just a few Of my pets that
carry around to show people. You see,
each one of these little boxes has a queen
in it. They are somewhat particular as to
their society, and | have put these other
fellows in to keep them company"
Don't they ever get loose and run
amuCk over your perSOn2N
Sometimes, but few stings more or
less don't make much difference But you
must excuse me, gentlemen, have to give
them their dinner" and he snapped the
satchel shut and left for his room.-Detroit
