sick but three or four days.
We see from a New York paper
that the lambs shipped from South
west Virginia are considered the
best that reach the northern mar.
kets, and yet not enough attention
is paid to breeding aud care.
Messrs. Felix O'Keefe, James
Peirce, 10. Peery aud Lewis Brit.
tain, discounted Messrs. John w.
SPOTS and J. S. Chatwell on their
fishing expedition, having hooked
upwards of $50 fine mountain trout.
A lady whose hair came out with
every combing, was induced to give
Ayers Hair Vigor a faithful trial.
She did so, and not only was the
loss of hair checked, but new and
vigorous growth soon succeeded
that which had gone.
Don't be discouraged about that
eczema till you have given Ayers
Sarsaparilla a persistent trial. Six
bottles of this medicine cured the
complaint for George s. Thomas, of
Ada, Ohio, when all other remedies
failed to afford any relief,
Rev. VIM M. Gillespie, who died
recently at the home of his father,
Mr.. David Gillespie, was one of the
most worthy and talented ef Tnze-
well young men. He recently grad.
uated at Emory and Henry College

The Virginia Bar Association had
a most successful aud delightful
meeting this year, sufficiently so to
make it an established fact for the
future. MeSsrs. Henry and Graham,

and enjoyed the occasion to the
fullest extent
Baltimore stock men have been
asking what had become of the one
time shipment of summer fat cat
tie from Tazewcll Our market for
such cattle is nearer home, the
Flat Top coal region demanding all
we raise to supply its thirty or
forty thousand people.
We understand that compara-
lively iow of the export cattle of
this blue grass region of Southwest
Virginia have been sold as yet this
season. Sales are usually made
during the months of May and June
Tor fall delivery. Uncertainty as to
the market is perhaps the cause.
We congratulate our friend. w.
Bullitt Fitz-Hugh, upon his election
to the presidency Of tho Va. Press
Association and regret that we
could not be with him at the time.
He is full of energy and will do
good service for the organization
in which he takes much interest.
Mr.. H. NJ. Smythe and Miss Josie
did not continue with the Press AS
sociation through the trip to Bos
ton but returned Monday. They
participated in the excellent enter
talnment, however, along the Vir-
ginia coast, and, of course, had a
royal good time.
Entire train loads Of fine beef
cattle have been passing over the
Clinch Valley Division from the
Wost. They arc very heavy and
very fat and constitute tue first
through shipments made from the
West over this line. They are pre-
sumably for the export trade.
Rev. J. S. Lyons, of the First
Presbyterian church, of San Anton
10, Texas and his family, are at Mr..
Izard's visiting Tazewell relatives.
We understand that Mr.. Lyons has
received call to the First Presby-
terian church of Louisville. He
stands high in the Southern Pres
bytery.
Mr.. j. Tate Grcever goes about
as usual before the unfortunate
shooting, and with the exception of
the loss of an eye apparently fully
restored. Notwithstanding con
fiicting statements regarding the
shooting, he has his own and very
clear ideas about the matter. His
friends are glad to see him in town
