Found in a Pond.

The body of a colored boy named
Sam Carvel, about twenty years old,
was found in a pond on ]. B. Talley's
farm, six miles south of Trenton,
yesterday. Carvel went fishing on
Saturday before last, and was re-
ported to have gone in the direction
of West Fork. He did not return,
and on Monday search was instituted
for him. This proved fruitless, how
ever. Saturday night a colored wo-
man on the place dreamed that she
saw his body in a shallow pond on
the place, and yesterday the pond
was dragged and the body recovered.
The boy was subject to epileptic
fits and it is believed that he had a
lit while fishing and fell in the pond,
as the water was quite shallow and
he could easily have gotten out of it
if in possession of his faculties.

To the Tobacco Leaf-Chronicle.
The recent Legislature made some
changes in the Tennessee school laws
by providing for primary and see
ondary schools.
In primary schools can be taught
the following only: Olthography,
reading, writing, arithmetic, gram
mar, geography, history Of Tennessee
and history of the United States.
The secondary schools include all
branches of the primary school, also
geology of Tennessee, elements OF
agriculture, algebra, plain geometry,
natural philosophy, bookkeeping,
physiology and hygiene, civil gov
eminent and rhetoric or higher En-
glish.
There will be issued, two grades
each, primary and secondary certiii-
Gates. The primary certificates IL
eense the holder to teach in primary
schools only, while teachers holding
a secondary certificate: either first or
second grade, can teach in primary
or secondary schools.
Secondary schools will be estab-
lished as fast as practical and | mere
ly mention this in order that all may
know Of the change in the course
and be prepared to take either (sec-
ondary or primary examination in
full. So those who expect to take
the secondary examination can see
what branches are included in that
course, and those who want to take
the primary" examination will
please note that geology Of Tennes.
see and elementary agriculture has
been placed in secondary course and
history of Tennessee takes their
places in primary schools.

THE CHAIN GANG ESCAPE.
Petwey, the Detective, snatches Muir
PHYS Pistol and Releases the Gang.


About 4 O'clock Saturday evening
six workhouse prisoners were re-
leased by the shrewdness Of one OF
the number and the stupidity of the
guard. Deputy Sheriff Suffer has
regular charge of the chain gang, but
he was needed to wait on the court,
in charge of Avant, who is on trial,
and Joe Murphy was put in charge
of the chain gang. The prisoners
were employed in the city quarry in
South GAINESVILLE, some blasting and
Others beating stone for street repairs.
Three men were trying to turn a
large stone, which they pretended
they were not quite able to do. Joe
Murphy, the guard, laid hold of the
stone to help them, and that instant
VIM. Petway snatched Murphy's
pistol from his hip pocket and made
him hold up his hands until the
gang all broke loose their shackles
and divesiting themselves of ball
and chain, made their escape. Ben
Ramey refused to go he said his
term would soon be out and he would
rather complete the sentence and be
a free man than to try to dodge and
evade the law, but the other five
took leg bail, leaving Ramey to
guard Murphy to town and see that
he didn't get hurt on the way. The
prisoners We're all negroes. William

A COUNTY EXHIBIT.
Something to Employ the Commercial
Club.

Our people remember the magni-
tlcent seed show gotten up here few
years ago by the Montgomery Coun-
ty Farmers Association how it at
tracted attention and surprised
everybody. Now the thing to do is
to begin to get ready for the Worlds
Fair. First secure a proper building
or room and begin at once the Collec.
ton of products, such things AS will
keep. Invite the farmers to send in
samples Of tobacco, corn, wheat, rye,
oats, barley, buckwheat aud all of the
grasses, also let us have samples OF
iron ore, stone, clay and all varieties
OF timber, dressed and in the rough
samples of mechanical skill, cuTiosi-
ties, etc, put every mans name on
his contribution, and people will be
surprised to see what an exhibition
we can make. This will be on hand
to show every stranger who visits the
city. 1t will give our own people
something to look at and talk about
and advertise, 1t will have ten.
deney to awaken energy and ambi
ton, kindle spirit of enterprise,
and lead to the development of re-
sources which our people have not
dreamed of. Then when the Worlds
Fair opens we will have nothing to do
but to pack our exhibits and ship to
Chicago. 1t will pay to employ the
whole time of capable secretary or
agent, as other clubs are doing, to get
up this exhibition, attend TO the ad-
vertisiug and work up enterprise. III
our people calculate to profit any by
the organization Of a commercial
club. then they must spend some
money. This kind of work needs
some one who can keep the member
ship stirred up, arouse enthusiasmand
inspire hope and confidence There
are many things to be done that are
worth doing well, and a good begin
ming is the main thing.
