'The Death Of the First Born" poem
which appears on page OF this issue is
well worth reading. Under various mons
de plume the writer of it has from time
TO time written for the Dispatch many
sweet poems. most of them in a deeply-re-
ligious vein. Here he well-nigh discloses
his identity. as the public will now be-
gin 10 canvass prominent names to see

1--WE are glad" says the Richmond Dis
patch. Ito notice that Mr.. Murat Hal
stead still writes for the Cincinnati Com
mercial- Gazette" Our Richmond contem-
porary must be very glad then. For Mr..
Murat Halstead writes more at a time
than any other man In America. We
doubt, indeed, that he writes at all. He
probably uses a large. well-olled phono-
graph and commits his views to 1t with
the generous freedom that Is inspired by
the knowledge that he Is paid space-rates
for his productions. Mr.. Halstead should
write an encyclopaedia. 1t would not
take him iong.-Charleston News.
Mr.. Halstead is a practical. common
sense man, and knows how much to write
as well as how to write. He is destitute
Of the narrow-mindednes which charac-
terizes so many Republican editors. He
does not suppose that Cincinnati Is the
largest city in the United States, nor that
a mans talents or information or ac-
quirements Of any sort depend upon the
population of the place In which he lives
In a word, Mr.. Halstead Is not such a
writer as many New York editors (Mr
Dana Is not one) who really suppose that
the sun rises and sets in the Empire City

be. rather than the man the sharp
tongued Madeline represents him 10 be,
VIC doubt not that the procession and the
band and the banquet will await bis re-
turn TO his Lexington home.
Then old friends will gather about him
and wiring his hands joyfully; then VIII
he be welcomed as one plucked out OF
great danger and restored to the bosom
Of community which well-nigh adores
him. Knowing how true-hearted the Ken
tuckians are-knowing how strong With
them are ties Of blood-we doubt not that
all this will come to pass should the
suit result In establishing as fact that
Colonel Breckenridge has not played
tricks on his family. not deceived his
friends, and not shamed his church.
But on the other hand. should the In
vestigatIon now in progress reveal Colonel
Breckenridge in character different
from that In which the loving Kentucky
public have always pictured him: should
II show that his virtue was but a sham,
his religion but cloak, then his old
friends will fail to recognize him after
so great a metamorphosis. And, who
could blame them? Who could identify
the breckenridge OF the past with such
Breckenridge as that?

SMOKY MOUNTAIN LUMBER co.
To ReOrganize and Straighten Out
Matters Right Away.

The vice-president OF the Smoky
Mountain Lumber Company, Mr.. Geo.
d. Miles, returned from Chicago yes.
terdsy, where he had been in the in.
terests OF the company, and left on the
z a. m. train for Erwin.
In talk With him he informed a
representative of The COMET that bis
return meant that active steps would
be taken Immediately in the way Of a
reorganization OF the company with
the election probably of new officers
throughout, and thereafter of renewing
operations; that is, we inferred, the
company would surmount al the diff.
ficulties which just now stand In the
way, and carry on the business under
the supervision of men backed by
abundant capital"
Mr., Miles regretted the entangle-
ment of the company, but seemed
cheerful and confident OF satisfactory
adjustment Of the affairs Of the same
and Of harmonious proceedings in its
reorganization.

A Cigarettes Work.

Tuesday evening at or just about
dusk the old Boring barn, property Of
Carnegie Land Co., was burned to the
ground, and also lot of millet, hay,
straw and corn, which the barn con-
tanned.
Late in the afternoon, awhile before
the alarm Of fire was given, boy went
into the barn to get horse. The boy
was smoking a cigarette at the time.
Later, as stated above, the barn was
burned.
There is no other way to account
for the fire except that it was caused
in some way by the cigarette which
the boy was smoking when he went
into the barn after the horse. The boy,
of course, had to have the cigarette.
He couldn't have caught the horse
without II, especially in the barn, and
the barn couldn't have burned if the
boy hadn't gone into it smoking the
cigarette. "That's no lie."

Prof. Hicks Resigns,

Prof. Hicks has resigned as princi-
pal OF the Johnson City Institute, and
he is now connected with it in no Ca
pacity whatever.
Miss May Fuqua will continue it as
= private school, however, which the
public will be glad to hear, as she is
not only a young lady Of rare intel.
lectual attainments, but is also a thor
oughly competent instructress from
an educational standpoint, and To-
vorite with her scholars and the pub
lie generally. She is especially adapt
ed to Encouragement and training oil
the younger scholars, and they delight
10 learn and improve under her wise
and systematic means OF bringing
ab1ut diligence and close application
on their part. So.
Miss Fuqua takes great pains and
pride in her school work, for which
she cannot he teo highly commended

AFTER THE OPOSSUM.
A BeVy Of Beauty Hunt the Willy Grin
ner in His Haunts.

A few nights ago the gayest party
that ever organized for any purpose
started out in quest Of that animal, the
sight of which makes negro's mouth
suitable place for a yacht race.
They were accompanied oy jeff SCOTS
hounds, and soon succeeded in cap
turing four as fne specimens OF the
sweet potato seasoners as ever were
found in this section. The party was
composed OF the following young la
dies and gentlemen: Misses Annie
Gentry, Matte Henderson, Florence
Wilson, Florence Harris, and Messrs.
Geo. Wof'ord, Charlie Cargille,
Potter and Paul Wohord.
It is our honest opinion that these
gray haired persimmon fiends had all
they could do to eutgrin at least four
OF their captors even for a short time,
and must have finally given it up in
despair.

WITH KNIVES.
Samuel Lyle Killed aRd His Death the
Result OF an ARRAY.

- N"-N
KENovA, w. VA, October 2S AT
0eTedo, one mile above here, late last
night, in the saloon of Ben Wilson,
Samuel Lyle, an engineer on the
Norfolk & Western Railroad, and
LemueI Crowell, fireman, who were
passing the saloon, heard a noise and
stepped inside to see the cause OF it.
Just as Lyle entered, Chas. Frey and
his brother, Golden Frey, two tough
characters who had just returned from
the Mckinley meeting at Huntington,
drunk, attacked him with knives and
bottles. Lyle was horribly butchered
being cut and stabbed in fourteen
places, and was carried away in a dy-
ing condition. Lemuel Crowell was
also badly cut, but will recover Gin
cinaati Post.
The above report is exaggerated
greatly. While Mr., Lyle was attacked
at the place aud in the manner de-
scribed, news has been received here
that he will be out again in a few
days, his wounds not being half SO
serious as reported. We are glad to
make this correction because he is a
fine young man, and, besides, his fam
lily of brothers and sisters, and his
friends, viii have burden of sorrow
lifted from their hearts which they
carried as result of the above highly
colored report OF the ARRAY.
