We publish this week an article
taken from the Jackson Dispatch
concerning Evans Arithmetical
study, and regret that the article
was not published earlier, as agents
for that study have recently been
in this county, and succeeded in
disposing of several. The fact
that such agents were in the county
was published by us but not know
ing anything of the merits, demer-
its and price of the study, we of
course, refrained from commenting. /
We believe that a good rule for
school directors to adopt, would be,
in the future to apply the free
school money in building and repair
ing school houses and in payment of
salaries to the best teachers that
can be procured and not otherwise.
On the third Sunday in April
at the regular bi-monthly appoint
ment for preaching at Shandy, Rev.
J. M. Clark secured petition con-
sisting of nine names for the organ
ization of Presbyterian church at
that place. The petition was sent
immediatelyto the Presbytery of the
Western District, which met on the
same week at Trenton, Tenn, and a
commission was appointed by said
Presbytery to visit Shandy and or
game church there if the way
shonld be clear. The commission
will visit Shandy and the church
will be organized there on the sec
ond Sunday of the present month.
A cordial request is made that the
public attend the services. A Sun
day school has been organized at the
above named place with Mr.. J. I.
Roberts superintendent. The school
is held every Sunday at $3.50 pm.
! More than forty pupils have been
enrolled. The work at Shandy is
now in a prosperous and encouraging
condition.
If there is a clover huller in
this county, we are not aware of
the fact, yet clover seed is annual
lily purchased by farmers who
/; raise sufficient quantity to furnish
their neighborhood, but because Of
not having huller they go to waste.
: 1t some time occurs that there are
I obnoxious seeds mixed ID with the
:, clover seeds and cause considerable
trouble to those who purchase such.
Upon this subject the Troy News
Banner says: "The farmers of Tip
ton are complaining about the many
noxius weeds and grasses inroduc-
ed on their farms by the sowing of
foreign clover seed the weed seed
beiuo intermixed with the clover
seed. They should do like Obion
county does-have plenty of clover
hullers and they would not have to
send money north for clover and
strange grass and weed seed. +" This
is good advice, and would no doubt
be profitable if acted upon by Har-
deman county farmers, as well as
those of Upton county.

}. ID. Sasser's grist mill at Mid

of this week. We did not hear the
particulars concerning the burning,

The announcement of Hon.
Thos. J. Flippin as candidate for
reelection to the Office of circuit
Judge of the 18th judicial circuit,
appears in this issue of the Bulletin.
Judge Flippin is too well known in
this county to need any introduction
from us. The indications are that
he will be re-nominated by acclama-
ton, which would indeed be an in
dorsement of his official career in
the highest degree. His ability and
capability to fill the position he now
holds, is not questioned.

IN hour before tho fatal fall. But in
the meantime a heavy storm had passed
over. that a%ection, accompanied With

the trostle must have been struck by

weight Of the engine carried it down.
This theory seems plausible from the
fact as coon as the engine reached it, it
went down, leaving the front car OF the
freight train hanging owe the edge OF
the precipicc.

For see our CHI stmas trees and toys"
Dear old Snnta brought them to them
Just To give the children joys.
Now the Christmas DIV Is passing
And the children cry Oh. dear"
