services were conducted by DR.. Cald-

A number of excellent were
delivered during the meeting, especially
the n on Sunday directed TO the young
men. The singing IA also very in
teresting; MI. Conner is not only an
accomplished vocalist, but a devoted
Christian, and the willingness to work
for the Master which he manifested
while with us has won for him a num-
Der of friends among those with which
he labored. Mr.. Truan and wife, of
Knoxville, are spending a few days
this week with their daughter, Mrs. j.
D. Campbell. Chas. Broderick, after
spending a few weeks travelling in
Middle Tennessee, returned home last
week. Bob Carson has been confined
to his room for several days, but is
is improving and we hope he will soon
be out again. We are informed that
j.. Shellds Blair IS an aspirant for the
office of magistrate in this district; if
there is a nan in the Seventeenth Dis.

it is Mr.. Blair, and if he succeeds in

1t is thought by our weather prophets
that the backbone of winter has again
been broken. Rev. Bass, of huntsville,
N. G., held religious services at Bethesda
on Saturday and Sunday last. Mr.. Bass
Is a fine talker and attracts good con
gregations. Rey. j. H. Moore preached
in the Cherokee Baptist Church on
Sunday morning and in Bacon school
house in the afternoon. ID. A. Cross
white, of Harrington, Kansas, who has
been spending afew days with relatives
and friends here, leave today Monday
for home. He will stop off at Lenoir
City for a couple OF days to see his
brother in law, w. +. Simpson. Mrs.
w. +. Simpson and children, of Lenoir,
have been spending a few days here and
returned home today. The decoration
at Union was well attended by our peo-
Pile. An immense crowd was on hand,
flowers in abundance and plenty 10 eat
for everyone. In the afternoon the
audience was well entertained by an
able address by Mr.. Cheves, a large
lumber manufacturer from Unicoi
County. The day was pleasantly spent
and all returning home feeling that the
day had not been spent uselessly. Some
NANCY ours having been making dep
relation upon the sheep in various
parts of our section. d. d. hardwood
has been suffering from sciatic rheuma-
tism and neuralgia, but at this writing
is somewhat better. j. A. Crosswhite
and wife, of Kansas City, Mo-, will re-
main here some thirty days yet; Mr..
Crosswhite is not in good health and he
thinks our pure air and water will be
beneficial to him. Henry Hoss and sis
ter are preparing to build a new water
wheel and making other needed repairs
to their say mill. r. N. Miller will
soon begin to build an addition to his
residence. Some of our boys went up
to Erwin on last Saturday to attend u
ball game. Some of them seem to have
ball playing on the brain. If they
would only use the same exertion with
a pillow, shovel or hoe or some other i'm
plement, the time would be much more
profitably spent. Some of them have
scarcely done an honest days work this
spring, and are running around with
the Cleveland badges upon their panta-
looms and attending every ball game
within reach. We should have a vag-
rancy law for such characters.
