CAREERS MILL.

Tho recent dry spell has somewhat
delayed ~ farmers preparations for
their fall crops, although many of them
are well advanced with their blowing
and other fall work. Mrs. Chessie
Blair has taken charge of and removed
our postoffice to Blair's store where she
is giving first rate satisfaction. The
removal, however, is very inconven,
lent to a large majority of the mail re-
ceiving portion of our citizens, some of
whom are patronizing adjacent offices
that are nearer to them. The grin and
smiles upon Dave CAREERS face is
simply angelic {; cause, his wife has
presented him with another ten pound
Democrat, but it will never be able
to vote. Dave says his boys are all Re-
publicans and the girls like their
mother, are Democrats. Mrs. Henry
and Mrs. Fannie Hoss spent last week
with relatives at and near Clarkson.
They report a very enjoyable time.
Quite q number Of our citizens took in
the association at Erwin, and q large
number are attending the annual meet
ing of the Complexities or Christians
at the same place, and among the num-
Der is our genial frierd William Leon
ard. If there are any chickens left
they would better hide out for Bill is
certainly after them and will manage
to dispose of quite a number of them
during the progress of the meeting. As
predicted by me, Rev. j. H. Moore was
elected pastor of the Cherokee Baptist
Church a few days ago. Our people
are hustling to get apples and peaches
for butter, jelly, etc. There is plenty
of fruit along the mountains up Chero.

are loud professors of religion too, are
demanding prices that can't be paid
these good old Democratic times, and
many of u people are going to other
places where people are willing to live
and let live. j. NJ. CARRIER and family
returned from Unaka Springs a few
days ago where they had been spending
u few days with Mr.. Deaderick. II. M.
Deaderick and wife are spending a few
day at Rogersville with friends and
relatives. Rev. j. H. Moore is prepar-
ing to send two of his daughters to the
Messy Cree kCollege the ensuing term.
M. Fl. Leach returned home from Alta
mont, Kentucky, one day last week
Watermelons are plentiful and cheap.
Ferd Henly and James Reed are each
having a house sawed out at Hoss' Mill
and will build in the near future. Rev.
Lewis assisted by Jessie Clark and
others, are holding a series of meetings
at Buffers School House near here.
G. w. Beckett had the misfortune to
lose his betterhalf by death a few
days ago. Mr.. Beckett has the sincere
sympathy of a host of friends in his
sad bereavement. John Miller, after
spending a few days with home folks,

A SOMEWHAT peculiar case is now agi'
tating military circles. Captain A. H.
N. Taylor of the Nineteenth Infantry U.
s. army, has been court.martialed at De-
troit, Mich. for having married woman
below the social grade of the wives of
his fellow officers No charges against
the character Of the officers wife was
made, the main charge made being that
she was domestic, and therefore the
feelings Of the females of the other Of
ficers of the fort had been outraged by
the fact that they had been brought into
contact with one of their own sex who
10 plane beneath them in the existing
social status of the military. The case
is unique in the records of the United
States army, and the verdict Of the
court.martial will be watched with in
terest, as establishing precedent bearing
upon tho right of an officer to marry I
domestic. The chances are ten to on,
that the parents Of those who are insti
tuting these proceedings against Captain
Taylor were gutter.snipes or social out
casts.

Jake Cclburn Shot And Mortally
Wounded at Meadow Valley

Last night about nine o'clock Dr..

attend Jake Colburn at his ranch in
Meadow Valley Wash, whom, the meas

noon by one Clarence Leavitt.
The doctor went down and returned at
four o'clock this afternoon having left
Colburn at his ranch at nine o'clock this
morning in dying condition. Realizing
that he could not live. Colbu IN made
statement Of the occurrence which entire.
ly exonerates Lsavitt from all blame iu
the shooting. 1t appears that Leavitt.
who is half breed Indian boy. just
turned twenty lone, owed Colburn q
gambling debt Of 30, due since the recent
races at Panaca. Owing to the horse
case tried at Panaca last Monday. refer.
red to elsewhere in this issue. and to

feslings toward LeAvitt. and yesterday
afternoon about four o'clock ~ Leavitt.
together with Rufe Pippin and viii Col.
burn, an adopted son. passed C'olburn's
house, going down the Wash. Colburn
ran out and holding Lsavitt's horse by
the bride. demanded that he at once pay
that $40. Lsayitt said he could not.
when Colburn demanded that he como
into the house and give hi,
promisory note for the amount,
Leavitt refused point blank to do this,
when Colburu. whipping colts rsvol
yer from his hip pocket said. you little
black s-of -, I'll make you sigr
it." At sight of the gun. Leasitt slit
quickly from his horse to the ground. a
which Colburn fred at him twi &c, bott
shots missing the intended mark. Leavit
ran around his horse, and with n singl
action Smith & Wesson 50 calibre pistol
fired at Colburu, the shot taking effec
! in the stomach. He then fred q sscont

Colburn's right arm. During this tim
Colburn was snapping his pistol, tn

. Colburn said he only intended to frighte
the boy when he drew his gun. and ha
no idea that he. in turn was armed. an
shot at him when he slid so quickly fror
