Those desiring to come to
Maryville Via >the Knoxville
Southern road can get eff at Louis
vile and take Porter Kidds Hack
line running from there to this
place every night and morning.
We believe that The time is sure
ly coming when the government
will have practical control of the
railroads. A few more strikes in
which public business is stopped
will certainly bring it about
Jake Chapman, one of the young
men who engaged in robbing the
Houk and Mckinley postoffices
and sentenced to over year in the
work house, escaped from Loon
Moore another convict who was
guarding, while blasting rock on
the road Saturday. He was in hid
ing some where in the neighbor-
hood where he formerly lived, for
after the officers had hunted all
night for him, without success, they
went to some of his friends and
told them of the trained blood
hounds that the county eX-
pected next day and Informed
them Row much harder it
would go with him if they had to
recapture him that way and the
, next Sunday Jake walked in and
, gave himself up. When those
blood hounds do get here there will
be less of this running off Of prison
ers as the officers have to follow
very close or the dogs will injure
the men.
J "Did you ever notice" remarks
an old newspaper man, show some
fellows like to get JOKE on some
one? They will get up at one
: O'Clock in the morning and walk
seven miles before breakfast to get
something in the paper on neigh
Dor. But just let some one tur--
, tables on your practicle newspaper
joker, and he at once becomes
highly insuted and gets en- his
dignity and demands a retractiou.
Then again there is another set OF
fellows Who are aching all over to
have the newspaper say nice
thing about them. They will sit
mp all night Matching schemes
= whereby they can get a free puff
But on the other hand let one of
this class be caught in some disre-
putable proceeding, or found in
questionable company, then the
newspaper is sought at once and q
demand made that nothing be said
about their disreputable conduct
Newspaper men come in contact
with some mighty queer customers
and get an insight into human ma
ture than no other calling can"
