She wa q maid with rosy checks.
Her eyes AZ bright a. stars.
And she sat alone In one Of the seats
OF one OF the railway cars.
There came a drummer passing through.
With gripsack In his hand,
Whose check shows large. as II always
does,
In the face OF a "travelIng man."
OF course he spled the vacant seat 8.
And asked. In his sweetest tone,
Is this seat ~engagedy" "No, sir" she said,
"Tm travelling all alone"
with your permission. thens' said he,
mt his eyes his wish implied;
Then she made room and he sat down,
Close by the fair maids side.
The maid nj first was very shy,
But that soon wore away
Then his tongue fiew aud her tongue, too,
Nor they had so much TO say.
But all good things must end nj last.
MY station" said che. good night"
One minute more aud she had gone
Forever from his sight.
The drummer ought the smoking car.
To smoke and grieye alone;
And when he looked To see the time,
lie found his watch was gone.

Chattanooga is lovely city of Is, 600
people, nicely laid out with all the facil-
tiles for business traffic, that her larger
sisters of the South have. This city is
growing rapidly and real estate is not
too high. There is no boom on here
but a steady healthy growth. There are
people here from every state in the
union and cannot be called wholly a
southern city. 1t has that activity
which distinguishes it from Nashville
and Louisville It's cosmopolitan in
every respect. The manufacturing in
terests are varied and large Here we
saw the first and only saw mill on our
trip. 1t was very small and old fash
Toned, something like our mills of 20
years ago. Circular and gang saws with
the old gearing The logs are RATED
and tioated down the Tennessee river.

SERGT. BOSS CASE.
Rumored that he Failed to Arrest
-, Driver Smiths AssaiIants.

1t was rumored yesterday that Sergt.
Joseph r. Boss q the Fourth Station had
been suspended ny order of the Chief.
The cause of the suspension is attributed
to the fact that Boss failed to arrest the
assailant of the hack driver. William
Smith, the victim of the assault Monday
night.
As nearly as could be ascertained Smith
was approached by John Mclaughlin,
bartender for Booth g. Hutchinson, after
the close of the performance at the Gaiety
Opera House Monday night. MeLaugh-
lin was accompanied by woman and or
dered the driver to carry them to the
house 222 Washington street. This he
readily did, but on their arrival there
Mclaughlin refused to pay the 50 de-
manded by the driver of the carriage. Hot
words passed and, it is asserted, McLaugh-
lin attacked the driver inflicting several
severe cnts on his head.
Sergt Boss was sent to investigate the
affair but, it said, failed to arrest the
assailant. For this reason Chief Child is
said to have ordered his suspension pend
ing an investigation.
