"Three pounds Of peanuts, please"
The speaker was well-known society
lady. and the order on its face did not ap-
pear to be pregnant with interest After
the peanuts had been given the woman and
she had left the store, the proprietor turned
and said:
Have you noticed that peanuts are be-
ceming quite the thing with society peo
pie. Why, we sell hundreds Of pounds of
them, and they can be found in many
house all the time. Some people have been
under the impression that liking for pea
nuts denoted a plebian taste. It's not so.
Peanuts are all the style, and If you will
notice particularly you will see many a
society woman who feels no scruples in
eating peanuts on the street. Yes, sir,
peanuts are fashionable"

had the pleasure of meeting native of
London, Eng, the other day, who rallied
and scolded away at his own country and
all the countries or the old world, because,
as he expressed it, of their beastly con-
ceit and stubbOrnness." His anger related
entirely to the railway coaches of his own
land and those which he has occupied much
of the time in this country during the past
three months. The vestibuled trains, the
hotels on wheels, the barber shops, type
writers and so on had completely captured
him, and his enthusiasm made me feel
quite proud OF my country. After doing
this. however, he had TO observe: "Of
course they have more accidents and
greater loss of life on the railroads over
here than we have at home.n

mood, and at the time was speaking of the
good old days, when gentlemen was gen.

PATTERSON TALKS.
He Does Not Think Buchanan Win Run
as an Independent Candidate.

A Washington special to the Chat
tanooga News gives lengthy inter-
view with Congressman Patterson
On the political situation in Tennes-
see. The following dialogue is taken
from that interview:
"But don't you think the consensus
of opinion is that he will run ?" ask
ed the correspondent.
"Yes, the press and most of those
with whom / talk seem to think he
will. But if he does he is a traitor, an
assassin. He will be traitor to the
manhood and the true interests OF the
white people of Tennessee. But, as l
said before, 1 don't believe he will
prove himself such traitor, such an
assassin. Gov. Buchanan has always
been devoted Democrat until he got
mixed up with these vile Alliance
heresies, and 1 don't believe for the
sake of a petty ambition to be nomi-
mated he will stab to death the party
he has always professed to love-"

NO CHANCE FOR A FUSS.

England Has Not Overstepped the Line
inMaking a Pacific Coaling Station.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-Very little in
terest is displayed in official circles in
Washington in regard to the report that
Great Britain has arranged to establish
coaling station in the harbor of Pago
Pago Samoa, for the simple reason that
such course of action is in strict accord
with the terms of a treaty concluded
between Great Britain and Samoa In
1879, and does not interfere with or inn
pair the rights or interests of the United
States In any respect.
Section s of the British treaty pro-
vides that Great Britain may establish
coaling station anywhere on the shores
of Samoan harbor, except at Apia,
which is neutral harbor; at Saluafata,
which was previously ceded to Germany
and that part of the harbor of Pago
Pago which may be selected by the gov
ernment of the United States under Its
treaty of 1878.
The United States has already select
ed the site for its station and acquired
full legal title to the property, and ar
rangements are now being made for the
construction of wharf and necessary
buildings.
So far as known Great Britain has not
attempted to interfere with our rights in
the least in this matter, and in prepar-
ing to establish coaling station in the
same harbor is merely doing what she
has perfectly clear right to do undel

LOUISVILLE, Aug. 9.-Millionaire
Mackey is angry. He doesn't like
the So rate now on by the Pennsyl-
vania and Louisville, New Albany
and Chicago. 1t is hurting his busi-
ness, and yesterday he took steps to
stop it. The fact that a SO rate pre-
walls from Louisville enables rate
to be made from Nashville 50 cheap
er than the schedule. This rate has
been made by the Louisville and
Pennsylvania and the Louisville and
Nashville and Monon. The effect OF
this is that the Chicago and Eastern
Illinois has been losing travel be.
tween Nashville and Chicago.
Mr.. Mackey has determined on a
plan of revenge, which affects this
territory. Besides meeting the rate
at Nashville, he yesterday authorized
the Air Line to announce rate of
"a so from Louisville to Chicago, via.
Princeton, a distance of 372 miles.
This is fifty miles longer than the
Monon and sixty-eight miles longer
than the Pennsylvania. The Mackey
lines cannot compete with the other
lines in point of time, but he proposes
to make the rate to get even, in the
hope that the Pennsylvania will re-
store the So rate from Louisville to
Chicago, which, of course, would be
followed by the Monon.
ADVANCE OF TARIFF ON NAILS.
The Louisville and Nashville has
issued circular stating that oR and
after August IS an advance OF
twenty-four cents hundred pounds
will be made on nails and wire ship
ped to Texas points. This is but q
restoration of the tariff in Texas,
rates having been demoralized there
for some time.
Another circular announces re-
duction of five cents on baggage and
ties from Louisville, Cincinnati and
other Northern points to Shreveport
La.

KING IS NERVOUS.
He Fears That the Law Will
Take It's Course Friday.
His Friends, However, Are Making
Desperate Effort to Save Kis Neck
And They May Be Successful.

The friends Of III. Clay King, the
condemned murderer, have only two
more days in which to work for
Communication or respite. The gov
ernor so far has taken no steps In the
matter and the friends Of King SEEM
ingly are ut sea. They are making a
desperate effort, however, and there
are many who do not believe that
the condemned will hang Friday.
Several influential men from Mem
phis called ON the governor yester.
day, armed with petitions and inter.
ceded with the chief executive. The
governor, however, gave them no
answer. ii. III. Poston, an uncle OF
the late ID. Fl. Poston, was seen at
the capitol yesterday. Mr.. Poston
stated that he was there to see the
governor and protest against the pro-
priety of the night watchman Of the
capitol circulating petitions for the
communication of Kings sentence.
The governor said he knew nothing
about this petition other than that 1t
was handed the watchman by gen.
tleman who lived in the same ward.
AS the day draws nigh for the exc
cution, says Memphis special to the
Banner, the condemned man becomes
more nervous and abject, while his
counsel and family are redoubiing
their efforts to secure a communication
of his sentence. Judge Greer left for
Nashville last NIGHT armed with Pc
titions and personal letters to Gov.
Buchanan to make final effort In
his clients behalf. Col. @. B. Mitch.
ell, of Pontotoc. Miss. another OF his
| counseliors, arrived this morning and
visited Col. King In his cell. He
tried to buoy him up with the assur-
ance that his sentence would be COM
muted, and with success, as Col.
King seems to be In better spirits
than for some days past. In the
meantime the condemned man Is
seeking surcease Of sorrow In the
flowing bowl and his rations OF
whisky have been increased from
pint to quart day. He Is still un-
repentant, avows still his hatred OF
poston and says he will denounce
him from the scaffold. No prepare
tions will be made for the hanging
until Wednesday morning.
