ROBBED NEAR GREENEvfLLE.
Smith SaylOr Held Up and Relieved
of 81. 500,

A bold highway robbery occurred
within one mile of Greeneville, Tenn,
last week. Smith Saylor, farmer,
was held up and robbed of $500 by
masked highwaymen.
The robbers covered Saylor with
pistols, and, after securing bis money,
took to the woods.
Saylor had gone to Greeneville dur
ing the early morning TO close the
sale of his farm, and the money taken
was the first payment in the deal.
It is evident that the robbers re
sided in the community and were
thoroughly conversant with the deal.
Sayfor returned to town and related
the story of the robbery, when posse
went in pursuit of the highwaymen.

and bound to court. Other parties are

the coin was made at Hemlock or in
that neighborhood.

PERMANENT TRUSTEE.
W. p. BrOwnlOw Takes Charge Of the
Preas Stock.

Some OF the creditors of ]. II. Preas
& Co., through local counsel, Carr &
Reeves and Burrow Bros, filed bill
last Saturday seeking to remove
Trustee H. E. Dean. Among other
things, he was charged with failure to
give bond and to take the oath pre-
scribed by law and to file a copy Of
the inventory. An injunction was
prayed for enjoining Mr.. Dean from
further prosecuting the trust. The
injunction was granted and Temp
rary receiver appointed, as prayed.
w. z. Brownlow was made tempo
rary receiver. He gave bond and
took charge of the stock Saturday
afternoon. The case came on to be
heard before His Honor, Chancellor
Smith, at this place Tuesday. One of
the charges In the bill was that there
had been gross Encouragement on
the part OF the trustee, and a needless
waste of stock. The inventory filed by
Receiver Brownlow, including cash
and cash items turned over to him by
Trustee Dean, did not correspond
with the former inventory taken two
weeks ago by Trustee Dean. There
was a discrepancy of 1896. Because
of the inability OF the defendant to ex-
plain this discrepancy, Chancellor
Smith removed Trustee Dean and
made MIR. Brownlow permanent trus-
tee.
Kirkpatrick, Williams Il Bowman
represented the defendant. Mr.. Will
liams, who, by the way, is one of the
best lawyers in the city, did the plead.
ing. His speech in this case reminded
one very much OF the story Of Uncle
Ephraim and his fish. Unlike the
old darkey, however, Mr.. Williams
was loath to admit that if it was his
fish it was badly "swunk."

Uncle Toms Cabin never grows old.
There runs through it a vein of pathos
peculiarly touching and sweet. 1t
speaks the universal language of the
heart. 1t reflects like prism the in
nermost phases ofhuman emotion. 1t
is more than q play-it is moral clas-
sic. 1t argues for two OF the greatest
themes that can engage the mind
Human liberty and the immortality
of the soul. 1t is so pure that its
touch alone is Christening. Like the
kiss Of child, it conquers alone by the
very innocence OF its breath. In the
character of Eva it is unique. Who
does not cherish in memory some sweet
angelic child who seemed TO touch
this earth only as a transient visitor
who passed away with the dew O
childhood's morning-too good, tot

THEY GET TEN YEARS.
NOten Fair and Mac. Crawford Go Tn
for Murder.

Four days we're consumed in hear
ing the case of Noten Fair (white) and
Mac. Crawford colored) at Jonesboro
last week ON the charge of numbering
Sally Grant, an aged woman. In Jan.
uary, 1898, when there vas such q
deep snow on the ground and the
weather was extremely cold, the
stark body OF Sally Grant was found
in a drift of snow in Washington
county. not far from the Garter county
line. 1t was in evidence that the
unfortunate woman was intoxicated
previous to her death and had start
ell to party with Fair, riding horse
back on behind him. She never
reached the party, and the evidence
in the case pointed to foul play on
the part of Fair and Crawford. The
case came up sometime ago, but re-
suited in Ia mistrial. This time the
jury gave each ten years in the penn
tentiary. A motion for a new tria
was oYerruled.
