The Randall Cole Industrial School.

! NASHVILLE, Sept. 16.-Col. E. w.
Cole builded wiser than he knew when,
In honor Of his dead son, he laid the
ground work for what Is now known as
the Randall Cole Industrial School,
located near Nashville. From the small
beginning made by Col. Cole this beau
tiful and practical institute has bios
somed into one Of the graudest works
of philanthropy in the world. There
are now more than 800 inmates, and
provision has been wisely made by the
General Assembly for accommodations
sufficient to comfortably take care Of
many more. So far this year $1,000
profit has been earned on the products
of the farm, and in addition enough has
been raised to feed all the inmates.
There are only about seventy-four acres
in the place, but every acre is utilized.
The greater part of it is used in truck
farming, and as many as three crops are
raised on some of it. There are work.
shops Of various kinds, the latest being
departments for printing and making
furniture. OF the 800 or more inmates
about fifty are girls and twenty-one
colored children. The inmates are self
supporting to large degree, and while
many incorrigibles are placed there, all
seem to be happy and contented.

KNOXVILLE, Sept 13.-In November,
1891, James Boyer, wealthy citizen
of Cook County, disappeared, and his
son, Wash Boyer, exhibited deed to
the homestead, saying that his father
had sold tho farm to him and gone to
Texas. In May, 1892, the body of the
elder Boyer was found in cave. Wash
Boyer was arrested, tried and convicted
Of the murder OF his father and sem
fenced to twenty years in the peniten-
tiary Rufus Holt, witness to the forged
deed, was sentenced to eight years.
Today a confession from Holt was
made public. He says he and Wash
met the elder Boyer IN the woods; that
Wash beat his father to dea:h with a
club, and that the two carried the body
to cave. Holt received an old mule
for his part in the affair. Young Boyer
is still in Jail awaiting action on an
appeal, and it is thought that this
new evidence will hang him.

The Holston Annual Conference
meets in Maryvillsron Wednesday
morning at II o'clock Bishop
Merrel, of Chicago will preside.
The Session promises to be one of
much interest. There are about
one hundred members in The Con-

brethren from abroad will also be
present.
An interesting League service was
held on Sabbath evening last, con-

WARRANTS have been issued for the

THE First National Bank OF Nashville
resumed business last week and re-

murder in the first degree, with miti-
eating circumstances. This leaves the
Judge the discretion Of fixing the PEN
atty at Imprisonment for life or hang
ing. The evidence in the case was al
most wholly circumstantial, but very
strong chain was forged.
DARING and successful Jail delivery
was made at Covington last week by
John Watson. As Jailer Fowler went
in to lock in the prisoners for the night,
Watson threw blanket over him, and
pinioned him completely, and with the
assistance of another prisoner, took the
keys to the outer door, and the pistol of
the officer, and made their escape. Wat

and executed the recent break by which
twelve prisoners made their escape. He

THE drouth which continued over the
/ Middle and Western Divisions of the
State during the major portion of July
and August has been broken by fine
rains, which have been generally bene-
fetal to the farming interests, notwith-
standing the fact that large percent
age Of the late crops had been seriously
damaged by the dry weather. These
rains have served to revive late pas
lures, replenish the almost exhausted
water supply, to soften up the ground
sufficiently to allow blowing for fall
seeding to be resumed and to clear out
the atmosphere, which had been become
laden with dust particles

Rewards and Perdons.

NASHVILLE, Sept. 15-Gov. Turney
issued proclamation today relative to
rewards and pardons.
AS to the former he says that the as
scmbly only appropriated $1,000 per
year; that he must confne rewards as
nearly as possible to cases where in
jured persons or their friends are unable
to bear the expense Of spprehending the
offenders; that applications must show
by affidavit or otherwise that = prima
faoie case OF punishment exists and rsa-
sons given why local officers cannot AZ
rest; that the appropriation Is so small
that rewards must necessarily be small.
AS to pardons he says:
'"Pctitions to pardon are almost with
out number aud are usually simple ap-
peals to sympathy. They should show
merit. do not understand that the
pardoning power conferred upon the
governor authorizes him 10 act from
mere sympathy. Who're the courts have
declared the law pardon must be some
thing else than reversal. Applica-
lions for pardons are always carefully
considered, and II granted they are SO
Endorsed and filed away and failure to
hear from them by the parties or their
friends is evidence that it has been re-
fused. Many write to know what has
become Of the application. To answer
the many inquiries requires much time.
II after reasonable time, a pardon has
not been granted, it may certainly be
assumed 1t has been refused"
