TOBACCO TALK.
The Market Firm With Very
Little Change.
The Falling OF in Receipts Probably
Makes the Market Little Sitter
General News.

Business was lively down at the
Tobacco Exchange this morning, and
the market was, if anything, little
better than it was last week. There
are many farmers in attendance to-
day and are livening up things by
their presence. Prices remain nearly
the same as they were last week, but
the falling off in receipts has had the
tendency to make it sitter. The re-
ceipts last week were only about 800
hogsheads, which goes to show that
the crop is nearly all in.
Jas. Il. Holland, Of the Rudolph
neighborhood, was at the Exchange,
for the first time in several days, this
morning.
Jesse Evans, o. WoOdford, was
mixing with the crowd around the
Exchange this morning.
Cashier Dick Howel was watching
the boys from his accustomed seat IN
the rear of Secretary M. H. Clark.
John Bell Felts, who was christen'
ed for the only John Bell of Tennes
see. is here from Pleasant View, and
is selling some of his tobacco. Dick
Williams of the same place is keep
ing him company and is telling hin
when to let her go.
+. M. True, the big dealer from
Blackjack, Robertson county, is OF
hand to-day. He is saying nothing
but he has tobacco to sell.
Dudley and Will McMurry, o
Springfield, are here and that tow

, tobacco men than they are.
, Ross Bourne stayed in town las
night and Is at the exchange still
talking about the wheat crop. Ill
says John Dusty lied about that SUI

THE REGISTRATION BOOKS.
Charged That They Were Closed Too
Early at the Market House.

The registration for last Friday
and Saturday did not run up as
heavy as it should have done. The
people have tendency always, how
ever, to wait until the last days and
Their crowd the. registrars with work.
There were only sixty-eight registra-
ton certificates issued at Nichols
store and ia at the court-h use. The
market-house list could not be OBJ
tanned this morning, but it will APP
proXimate 100. BY the way, there is
some kicking at the action OF the
market-house registrars in closing
their books too early Saturday even
ing. 1t is reported that there were
several men who work at the various
shops who could not register because
the books were closed before they
were released from work. The
books at the court house were kept
open until $3.50, and many laboring
men registered after six O'Clock
The law is construed so as to make
it incumbent on the registrars t.
keep the books open until they are
reasonably sure that no one will
want to register. They were closeo
at the market house about 4 O'Clock
so the LEAF-CHRONICLE is reliably
informed. They should be KEEP
open until six o'clock at the earliest
