A SENSATION AT GAINESVILLE.
Men Connected With the Defunct
Bank Charged With Larceny.

CLARKSVILLE, Jan. ia real sem
sation was caused to-day when it was
made public that the grand jury had
found Lrue-bills against three of the
men connected with the defunct
Franklin Bank. Indictments, were
returned against p. G. Hambaugh,
President; r H. Poindexter, Cashier,
and George 8. Irwin, one of the Dr.
receors. There were two counts in
embezzlement. In the Criminal
Court this afternoon they were placed
under q bond of 81 600 each and the
cases set for trial at the April term of
court.
P. G. Hamburger is a wealthy to-
bacco dealer, q very old man, and
about a year ago he had the misfort-
une of losing his eyesight, this Attic
ton Overtaking him soon after the
failure OF the bank. r. H. Poindex-
ter is possibly not over 26 years of
age, and up to the time of the suspen-
sion of the bank was one of the
youngest cashiers in Tennessee.
George s. Irwin left here just after
the crash, it is stated, on account of
threats aud prejudices OF tobacco
planters and others who lost money
in the firm of Kendrick, Pettus & Co.,
of which he was q member, blameing
him for the failure. He only came
back here yesterday to answer the
serious charges against him, having
for some time been connected with
the firm of Allen, Lane q Co., cotton
factors, of st. Louis. The failure of
the Franklin Bank, which was q
private institution, occurred last
December year ago, in which nearly
81 900 900 was involved, also causing

chants National Bank to suspend.
But this bank has broken the national
bank record, having resumed BUSH
ness for some time.
It is said that the main features
connected with the Franklin failure
have not come to light as yet and both
the developments and the result of
the trial of the officials will be

A RED-HOT RIDE.
Boy and Shovel and Long Hill Have
q Time of 1t.

| Time OF Ii.
| American: A good many funny
cOasting incidents have occurred this
season, but the following thrilling
and ludicrous one beats them all.
| One day last week while the ice
was hard and slick all over the city, a
small boy, not to be beat out of the
pleasure of sliding by the want of a
sled, procured an ordinary steel coal
shovel and proceeded to the top of a
hill on Lindsey avenue in South
Nashville. On reaching the top of the
ascent the plucky young fellow cOolly
sat down in the scoop of the shovel
with his legs astraddIe of the handle
in front and asked some one to give
him a shove. This was done amid a
shout OF laughter from the bystanders.
The novel cOasting machine, with
it's valiant occupant, started out at
the rate of about fifteen miles an
hour, when the reckless young rider
felt his seat growing unpIeasantly
warm beneath him.
The pace rapidly increased to fifty
miles an hour, and the heat grew hot
ter. The boy looked about him but
couldn't see anything. Then he shut
his eyes, for want of anything better
to do with them, and held his breath.
The rate of speed was now a mile
minute, and his seat grew red hot.
The boy squirmed, but squirming
didn't do any good. He feft like the
boy on the burning deck, aud won
dered il a thaw hadn't set in.
Then he wished he hadn't come,
and wondered how far off the bottom
of the hill was. He tried to yell and
couldn't. Smoke began to rise about
him. He smelled it and felt the fire
that made it. He thought of the He
brew children in the fiery furnace and
wondered where the angel was.
About the time that fire had reached
his skin the machine began to slow
up. Then he overlook his breath,
which had left him, and yelled, fire!
firel"
When he reached the bottom Of the
hill crowd had gathered to witness
his arrival. The fire was quickly put
out, but it didn't stop burning him.
He was carried home, where he now
lies in a reversed position, while his
mother patches his pants. The SHOW
el was dropped in the river to cool of.
This young American learned two
things from his hasty ride. One was
that q steam engine on rails can't
beat q coal shovel on ice; and the
other was that considerable friction

Little Talk About Talking.

"All men talk, says Reuter-, "yet
who thinks of talking? They do it
as they breathe"
"Show me-" says old Heyl, show a
man treats a subject in his talk and /
will show you the man."
There are men and women who
seize subject as the otter seizes q
fish. He expertly nips his own little
favorite morsel from it aud lets the
fish sink, whether it is a beautiful
dolphin or q poisonous devel-fish that
he has destroyed.
The human otter finds in every
theme, however mean or lofty, only
the meterial for his poor little pun or
quip. Having secured that paltry
tidbit he let's the subject fall like q
mass of dead matter.
Other talkeIs treat a subject as q
bird does twig, merely as q resting
place on " hich they can perch and
fiutter and display themselves.
Still others-and of this class, there
are, strange to say, not only men and
women but boys and girls-touch a
topic as the snail does a leaf, only to
deposit on it the foul slime of their
own thoughts. Whether it be book
that is talked of, an heroic life or a
noble deed, they leave on it with
their hearers the memory of an in
decent jest or cynical doubt.
But there is large company Of
sweet and true souls, who find In the
meanest man, the poorest book or the
most trivial fact, something that is
pure snd lovely and of good report.
To talk with them is like entering
a granary full of golden grain gath
cred from all places and all times.
Many explorers in the Catacombs
of Egypt handled the masses of
mummies and found in them only
dead, unsightly bodies. But one
wiser than the rest found a live seed
in the cerecloths where it had been
buried for ages, and planting it,
brought into the world the root and
leaves and blossom of a rare flower.
To which of these classes do we
belong?
Every time we open our lips to
speak we prove to our hearers that
we are IN one or the other
