Mosquitoes and Be Happy.
Summer is coming and so is the fly.
The festive mosquito is also a sum-

any household.
Thousands of good housekeepers have
their walls, pictures, curtains and tenn

ferons little. insects who obtrude them
selves into their best rooms in spite OF
all their efforts to prevent.
The time has come when all such nui-
sances are to be at an end. The remedy
is at hand and at so small cost that the

There are forty seven patients, or were

were going to be benefited. Each man
told us that he would be a better man
that he felt already that he was forever
through with strong drink-that the
heeley institute was the greatest and
sweetest boon man had ever found. Those
who had just arrived of course had no
opinion, but those about to graduate were
really enthusiastic and the looks of them
plainly showed that they were dead in

FALLING WALLS.
Sequel of the Fire of sunday, July 10
Slight Additional Damage.

Sequel of the Fire of sunday, July 10
Slight Additional Damage.
About 8 O'Clock Friday morning tie
front walls OF the buildings on the
east side of the Square, burned on
Sunday night, July 10, fell outward
into the Square, carrying with it also
the front wall of the building owned
by w. z. Morgan, and occupied by
r. H. Peyton's saloon.
Brick bats flew far out into the
Square, and broke every glass in the
front of the building occupied by
Green & Barker. The door of the
latter building WAS torn from its
hinges, and bricks and brick dust
were scattered over the floor.
Fortunately the walls fell at time
when no one was in the vicinity.
The walls of the burned buildings
have been buIged out ever since the
fire, and it has been evident that they
must soon fall. AS matter of pre-
caution, they should have been
pushed down immediately after the
fire.
The entire damage to the Morgan
building is estimated at about $500,
which is covered by insurance. The
settlement was made several days
since, and was based on the rebuild
ing of half the front and side walls.
The side wall is yet standing but is
i'll bad condition, and will have to
be rebuilt.
No damage was done 10 PeytOn's
stock, but his saloon is tenn orarily
closed.
Work will he Immediately COM
menced on repairing the Morgan
building. \ new roof had already
been put Oh.
The assurances has been settled on
the loss caused by the recent fire,
with the exception of that on one of
buildings. That will be appraised.
The wall of the <Suilding occupied
by Chaffin Bros. was damaged by the
recent fire to the extent of about $500.

ChanceTy Court bill WAS filed grow
ing out OF the possession and dispo-
sition OF five different insurance

The Injunction and attachment
were granted by Judge +. d. Patter-

aud refuses to surrender them to
George Childress, Of the Second
National Bank, to whom they were
transferred, several days since, as Sc
curity for certain debts.
As stated at the Second National

policies q few days ago, for the pur-
pose, he said, of looking over them
and showing them to certain parties.
Mr.. Childress did not object TO the
policies being taken away from the
bank, Mr. Redo promising to return
them. Since obtaining them. Mr..
Redd has positively refused to sur
render possession of the policies.
The above is substantially the state
ment made to HERALD reporter this
morning by Mr.. Childress. The re-
porter has so far been unable to see
Mr.. Redd and obtain statement
from him.
1t will be noticed that f. B. Delk

Wild and Woody Time Among the Ne
groes Yesterday.
Sunday morning a negro eXcur-
sion train left Columbia for Nash
vile, with large crowd Of negro
men and women on board, and u few
white men among them.
From subsequent events there must
have been q gOOdly supply OF red
eye" among the crowd, OF else it was
obtained on Sunday in Nashville.
On arriving in Nashville the eXcur-
siOnists scattered 70 the four corners
CT the city, the greater number nat
orally gravitating TO Black Bottom
and Hell's Two Acres and Half.
On the return last night some Of
the eXcursiOnists We're pretty well
loaded with mean whisky, and as u
natural result there were several
fights. Some shooting was INDUCED
in, but the aim was bad, the targets
indistinct and nobody was hurt.

The SiiO.

EnsiIage is preserved green food,
and the building in which ii is pre-
served is called the silO.
There is nothing that has as COM
pletely revOlutiOuiZed the cost Of
dairying for hundred years as the
silO; and it has been discovered that
it is equally as good if fed 10 cattle
OF all kinds, especially if fed with
some other kind OF food. An acre of
corn cut in ensilage VIII make from
seven to twenty tons, and the entire
cost Of raising the corn and housing
it will not exceed 75c per ton. y
good COW may eat a ton per month,
and it has time and again been
demonstrated that three tons of
ensilage for dairy purposes will
eq laI one ton of the best timothy
hay. 1t is one of the greatest dairy
feeds in the world and good for all
kinds OF stock.
We learn from Mr.. John NJ. Gray
that he 1inds it very fine and cheap
for assisting in fattening beeves in
winter.
We will put up over 100 tons this
year, and will take pleasure in ex-
planning the process in full should
any OF our readers desire to become
further posted concerning it. 1t is
net an experiment.

SENATOR HARRIS FISTIC EXPE.
RIENCE.

"The Congressional Record doesn't
tell how old Senator Harris, of Ten
nessee is" said a prominent Southern
statesman, in a downtown hotel,
"but l happen to know he isn't far
from seventy-five. But he is well
preserved, and doubt not if anything
like a scrapping match were to come
up, the merry old Senator's muscle
would still stand a pretty severe
test.n
The conversation arose about a
recent episode that happened at the
north end of the Capitol, in which
the Senator from Tennessee was one
of the leading actors.
ITS pretty good thing the code
duello doesn't flourish in these days"
said another politician. "a fair tistic
encounter is more manly and salts
factory every way, and Senator Har-
ris has had experience in that sort OF
business. Away back in the tifties
he and Robert Hutton, who was
afterward in Congress, were rival
candidates for the gOvernOrship of
Tennessee. At a joint debate hot
words led to blows, and Harris dealt
a blow to his opponent that Knocked

THOSE INSURANCE POLICIES
Mr.. j. 5. Redd, Jr.. Hands in Card
for Publication.
A Very Badly NIixed-UP Afrair-Five U1
the Policies Again in the Posses
sion of Mr.. ChildresS.

Mr.. J. S. Redd, Jr., OF the firm Of
Delk & Redd, yesterday handed
the following to a representative Of
the Herald for publication, in regard
to the publication in Saturdays
HERALD:
Noticing your article of the 23rd
inst, in regard to the affairs OF Delk
& Redd having been taken into court,
and, while / think il was uninten-
tionaI, Injustice has been done me in
this publication. The day after the
fire l opened our safe aud took all OF
our books and papers to my room.
Thinking that our insurance policies
should be kept in a safe place took
them to the Second National Bank
and left them for safe keeping until
we should have use for them.
"When the adjusters came, L got
the policies from the bang to adjust
the loss, and have since had them
in my possession, as L looked upon
them as our property. My counsel
advised me to keep in my possession
the books, papers, insurance policies,
etc, of Delk & Redd just as / did be-
fore the fire when they were all in
my keeping.
1.-THE policies had never been form
ally transferred to the bank, but
simply written instrument gwen to
Mr.. Geo. Childress and others to Sc
cure payment of certain debts then
due, but which left a large surplus
still under the control of Delk *
Redd.
Certainly the bank had no better
claim to the possession of the poll
cies than any other creditor; and l
held possession of policies, books
and papers, as before said, by the adj
vice of my counsel, until the proper
authority had them turned over for
settlement.
~ do not see how Mr.. Childress
could have understood me as prom
Using to return the policies to him,
rs l only left them with him as a
matter of convenience; just as L
would have left my pocket-bOok or
any other article of value. L have
not the slightest recollection that he
even limited at such a thing; and had
he done so, there was no reason why
| should have left the policies with
HIM, for no one could reasonably
deny the right of Delk & Redd to
hold their own policies as they would
any other property"
The HERALD has endeavored in
this matter to give the news impair
{ TALLY and without comment. As to
| the facts IN the affair, they were
| known to the HERALD several days
before publication of the same, and
were kept out OF the columns until
they became matter of record il the
chancery court, at which time they
| also became public property.

George Childress says he has, and had
