A Children's Party.

Last Friday evening about thirty six
lads and lassies that any town might
well be proud of assembled at the resi-
dence of Mrs. M. A. Dosser. The party
was given by Miss Susie and Master
Herbert Moses. The house was beauti.
fully decorated, and in addition to the
bright lights shining from doors and
windows, Japanese lanterns threw their
rainbow hues on everything around.
Soon after eve O'Clock the tiny little
misses with their tiny little beaux be-
gan to arrive. No pen could portray
the beautiful costumes, nor the happy,
b%lushing faces of the little ladies who
were out perhaps for the first time with
a beau. But the GROWING event was
the call to supper. Beautiful flowers,
luscious fruits and handsome cakes
served to feast the eye, while ice ream
and cake served to satisfy the inner
longing. While refreshments were en-
joyed in the dining room, another treat
was being prepared in the parlor. AS
they filed in from supper they formed a
circle around a Jack Horner Christmas
pie. When the circle was complete
each n was invited to take q string,
instead of the thumb, 10 pull out a
plum. The plum proved to be a neat
little souvenir for each one. Attached
to M string was a numbered card,
which entitled the owner to the best
gift of all, a beautiful autograph al
bum. Miss Jessie Smith was the fortu-
nate one to draw the album, which she
Immediately utilized as a pig album,
and 80 carried off the autograph of
each attendant at the party. But the
feasting was not at an end yet, for
above the merry shouts of ''See what l
have drawn" came the in vitation to
come to the dining room again, where
watermelon, fruits and the daintiest
French candies were served. A little
more fun and romping and the good
nights were said. AS each one SO
heartily thanked Mrs. Moses for the
pleasant evening, she felt more than
repaid for her labor of love.

The JOnesbOrO Graded School.

The Jonesboro Graded School will
properly begin on Monday, September
5, but in order to get organized well,
we think it best to take Thursday and
Friday, September ! and 2, for this pur-
pose. We hope all who intend to at
tend school will be there ON these days.
We hope no one will think that it will
do just as well to wait until Monday,
for if you do you will come there and
find your classes all organized and at
work. Many a student has made a
failure by getting a poor start. There
is no use of speaking of the advantages
of this school to those of you who live
in the town, for you already know its
past history, which stands as a witness
in its behalf. But there may be some
young men or ladies in the country who
are contemplating where they will go
to school this year. If there be such,
we cordially invite you to examine our
course of study and the advantages we
offer here. 1t would afford me great
pleasure to furnish any one with any
information with regard to the school.
The school here has always been sue.
c%essful, and we intend to try to make
1t as successful this year as any year
in the past. For any information ad-
dress, S. w. SHERRILL,
Principal, Jonesboro. Tenn,

The catalogue is a work of art and per

represents. Centenary has won a high
position among the really good schools
of the land, and owes its present sue

if were A. M. Stuart, Republican, and
G. w. Willett, Democrat. Stuart's ma
jority was 245 votes. In August, 1880,
A. M. Stuart and N. V. Cannon were
the candidates, and Stuart was again
elected by Ell votes.
In August, 1882, the race for Sheriff
was between s. H. Pouder, Republican,
and j. M. Morrow, Democrat. Pou-
der's majority, we believe, was over
100 votes. In 1884 James M. Grisham,
Republican, and Ed Harr, Democrat,
were the candidates, and as the Repub-
cans were torn into factions over Tay.
Tor and Pettibone for Congress, and as
local priden caused johnson City to
give Harr an undue allowance of votes,
he had a majority of 14S in the county.
But as Harr died just after the election,
and as the County County Court was
then Democratic, G. W. Willett was
Ohopcn W III out INC btrIn. LII looo Tile
candidates were T. P. Britton, Republi.
can, and G. w. Willett, Democrat.
Hillett defeated Britton III votes.
In 1888 Hawkins and Willett ran,
and Hawkins pulled through by nine
votes only. In 1890 Hawkins and Will
lett were again the candidates, and
Hawkins was elected by ten votes. In
1892, as we all remember, Hawkins de-
feated John Sanders by PA votes.
From the above it will be seen that
Washington County has gone Demo
cratic for Sheriff only twice in twenty
five years.

"REMINISCENCES.

The following brief review of some
of our county elections relating to the
election of Sheriffs since the war, will
doubtless prove interesting to our read.
ers:
In 1865, with the collapse of the re.
bellion, the Union members of our
County Court elected q full CORDS Of
county officials to serve until April /,
1866, and Shelby T. Shipley was elected
Sheriff. In March, 1866, a general cleo.
ton was held throughout the county
for oil county officers, at which election
only loyal white men could vote, and
Shelby T. Shipley was reelected Sher.

1868, the candidates for Sheriff were
Samuel E. Griffith and NJ. P. Boring
Griffith was elected and Boring contest.
ed the election, carrying the case to the
Supreme Court, where Boring finally
won it, but too late to benefit him, as
the term had expired.
In March, 1870, the candidates were
s. E. Griffith and s. T. Shipley, and
Griffith was elected. In 1870, under the
new constitution, the date of holding
county elections was changed from
first Saturday in March to first Thurs.
day in August and it may be proper
to mention here that colored men voted
for the first time in Tennessee at the
State election in August, 1857, and the
late rebels" voted for the first time
after the wal at the State election in
August, 1853.
In 1872 Griffith was again the Repub-
lican candidate for Sheriff, and defeat.
ing Major Abe Fine 727 votes.
In 1874 there seemed to be a general
breaking up of the foundations of the
great deep, and everybody in every
party wanted to run for office, and the
candidates for Sheriff were Robert M.
Young and A. M. Stuart, Republican,
and Enos Kinchelo, Democrat. Young
was elected over Kinchelo by twenty
five votes only. Mr.. Young did not
serve out his full term, and the County
Court filled the vacancy by ~electing C.
A. Mathes, Republican, over Enos
Kinchelo by one or two votes.
At the November election in 1874 the
Republicans were torn up and divided
over Butler and Gillenwaters for Con-
gress, and the result was the defeat of
Butler also, the election of Ed Harris,
Democrat, to the Legislature from this
county, and Harris voted for the bill
establishing Unicoi County, with the
hope that by cutting of the strong Re-
publican precincts Of Greasy Cove and
Flag Pond from this county it would
be thereafter safely Democratic. So
when the canvass of 1875 opened the
Democrats claimed the earth, and again
nominated Mr.. Kinchelo as their can
didate Tor Sheriff, and the Republicans
nominated Sandy Stuart. Stuart's ma.
joTisy was Only ffty nine votes, and
Morrow, Democrat, defeated Hickey,
Republican. for Trustee, 1903 votes.
