Caught In the Act.

About o'clock sunday night S, P.
Mcdonald was going down Market
street and noticed the door OF Mrs.
Chas. Moore's millinery store was
open. He went up to shut it and dis.
covered that some one was in the
darkness within. 1t was a colored man
named John Robinson, a preacher,
who claimed that he had just seen
boy leave the store, and that he had
just gone in himself to see what the
boy was up to. OF course his story
was not believed and Mr.. Mcdonald
turned him over to Chief of Police
Remine, who held him until he gave
bond OF $3.50 for his appearance be-
fore Justice Martin at one o'clock
Monday.
About SIS worth OF goods were
missing from the store, and, as moth
ing was found concealed on the per-
son of Robinson, it would look as if
he were innocent, but it is possible
that, Notwithstanding it was early in
the night, he had made trip or two
into the store before he was caught,
leaving each time with what booty he
could easily hide from view and suspi-
cion. The matter was compromised
Monday by Robinson paying for all
the missing goods. Robinson had
worked at the tannery for nine years,
is a preacher and has always been
considered an honest man, but cir
cumstances were dead against him
this time. 40

Rev. w. s. Neighbors preached a
very interesting sermon last Sunday
Modern Spiritualism." He will con-

All boys from twelve to sixteen years

at Hotel Dickinson. None except
worthy boys need apply.
Mrs. Will Cameron and children, of
Elizabethton, passed through here
Monday on their way to Los Angeles,
CAL, where they will meet Mr.. Came
ron who has been there for several
months, and where they will make
their future home. W. 7. Johnson,
OF Elizabethton, accompanied them
and will also make his home there for
some time.
The slightest improvement in BUSH
ness is always perceptible in bank de-
posts. The statement OF The First
National Bank in another column
shows an increase in deposits of over
$1,000 since their previous statement,
month or two ago. This is encour-
aging and begins to look like the worst
is over, and that we are again to enter
on an era of prosperity.
Today is the commencement day at
Washington College, one OF the Oldest
institutions south of the Ohio. A
good time is expected. Several Of our
people attended. J. T. Browning, Of
the Staff, and N. B. Remine, OF the
Bristol Courier, went down Wednes-
day morning. Mr.. Remine made the
annual address Wednesday night to
the alumni, to which he and Browning
belong.
Chief Raider Chas. NJ. Taylor got
back Saturday from an extensive
moonshine hunt which carried him
over into Kentucky near the Man.

full, however, and, as a consequence
of the hardships and privations Incl
dent upon it, Charlie has not been so
we'll. These hard rides and exposures
are telling on him, but he is enc OF
the most hustling and neivy revenue
officers that ever carried commission
in this part Of the country.

This Looks Bad For John.

Later development makes it look
still darker for John Robinson, who
was caught Sunday night in Mrs.
Chas. Moore's millinery store on Mar
ket street.
About three months ago Miss Mary
Bachman, who was conducting q mil
linery business in the room now occu-
pied by Mrs. Moore, had a half dozen
chairs and fine carpet spirited away.
Her brother-in-law, w. M. Boyd, adj
vised her to say nothing about it, and
he would try to find the stolen prop
eriy for her. So when Robinson was
caught Sunday night, Boyd had a
pretty good idea where the chairs and
carpet belonging to Miss Bachman
had gone, and had the house Of Rob
inson searched.
In company with Chief ReminC
Boyd went to the house and was sur

A Good Joke.

An incident happened during the
funeral obsequies Of Rev. Z. B. Rob-
inson few days ago, which scored
another victory for the small girl.
A little three year old girl, whose
father is in the habit Of wearing plas-
ters on his back, attended the funeral
service with him. The Masonic fra,
ternity took charge of the obsequies,
and we're out in full regalia. Noticing
the little aprons which they wore, the
youthful innocen} asked, "Oh, papa,
why do those men wear their plasters
ON their stomachs?"

The UuNka limb l any Sold Out
to u Chicago lvslcrn.

The Uoaka Timber Company, which
owned several thousand acres of val
liable timber lands in Yancoy and
Mitchell counties, N. O., has cold out
lock, stock and barrel TO a wealthy
Chicago company, The deal was con-
summated several days ago, but moth
ing has been said about it until it was
learned definitely just what the new
company would do.
Col. Miles, of Chicago, is a leading
member Of the new firm, and in a let
ter to General Wilder, he states that
the company will begin operations at
once. The depot and residence have
already been constructed at Unaka
Springs under the supervision of Gen.
Wilder, who is acting for the company
in these preliminary steps. These
improvements were mentioned in last
weeks COMET as forerunners Of cot
ton factory, but, on further lnyestiga.
ton, it was learned that they were
forerunners of one OF the largest saw
mills this country has ever seen. The
mill will have a capacity OF $4,000 feet
per day, and it is estimated that the
company's property has enough tim
Der on it to make 1875 100000 feet and
that it will take five years to cut it.
The shipping will be made over the
8 C's, and will be business for that
road far beyond what its warmest
dreamers ever dreamed.
Col. Miles and one other leading
member Of the company will make
their home in Johnson City and make
it the base OF operations, thus virtually
giving to us the entire business Of the
concern.
Next to internal industries these en-
terprises on our tributaries are ben.
efcial to us This country is looking
up once more and we predict that
revival Of industry is at hand There
is too much valuable coal, iron and
timber in this country for it to remain
neglected for any grea. length of time,
even through an era Of financial de-
preston.

Cut His Foot.

DR.. G. H. Berry was aroused last
Monday night and impaired the start.
ling intelligence that five cows were
playing havoc with the green grass
and trees in his front yard. The doc.
tor sailed forth and when the dark
clouds of wrath and COW hair had been
carried away on balmy zephyrs OF the
night, and quiet once more restored to
the household, the doctor found that
he had split his heel open with a deep
incision about two inches long. 1t is
quite sore and the doctor goes about
on it with more or less difficulty, like
a boy with stone brnise on his heel.

A Good Business. :

People who think the narrow gauge
railroad is not making any money and
is simply running for the accommo-

the officials, will be surprised to learn
the fact that the self same road did
$3.50 worth Of freight business Satur-
day. This happens oftener than it is

poor generals where the battle is a
question OF their own health and

good generalship is to know the value
of Ramon's Tonic Liver Pills, the great
cure for biliousness and disordered

box, and a sample dose will be given
