THE CAMPAIGN IN TENNESSEE.
Large Crowds Listen to the psning
Speech by Senator Harris.

Trenton, Tenn, Sept. Is. - Senator
Isham G. Harris opened the campaign in
Tennessee here to-day, in a speech 20 one
Of the largest crowds that ever Assem- bled
in the state. The whole town put on hOl-
iday attire. and excursion trains brought
great crowds from points IN West Ten
nessee. Senator Harris was in his hap
piest mood, and was frequently inter
rupted by cheers.
Harris said that while the new tariff
bill vas not entirely satisfactory 10 him
self, Of TO a large ma Ority OF democratic
senators. he could assert with absolute
confidence that IL is the best tarirf bill for
the consumer and taxpayer that has
been passed by or offered in congress
in the last forty years. He did
not hesitate TO denounce as IN ust. I'M
founded, and absolutely false, the state
ment that the Senate was controlled by
the sugar trust. He did not believe that
single democratic senator was so con-
trOlled
Speaking of the currency question, Sen
atOr Harris said: 81 should be glad to
have an international agreement, but
am satisfied that no such agreement
is possible, nor probable at this time. 1t
IS, therefore, inevitable that we must by
our own legislation, provide for the coin
age of both metals and the maintenance
OF parity.
LET US formulate and establish our
own home policy and maintain il. We
are able to do il, and it is our duty to es-
tablish and maintain a bimetalic stan
dard In our country. When we owe other
countries we will find a means of paying,
If not in cotton, wheat or other products,
we may possibly make terms with shy
locks for gold enough 10 pay"

Latest Cure for Inebriety.

Orange taken at stated times is the lat
est remedy for inebriety. Those who
profess to know advise the eating of one
orange before breakfast, another at II a.
m, p. m and g p. m, with another the
last thing before retiring 1t is SAID if
this orange diet is persisted in it will cure
all but the worst cases. A safe and agree
able regimen, it is certainly one well
worth trying. If this healthful, nutri-
tious fruit possesses yet other medicinal
virtues aside from being a sovereign rem
edy for biliousness, and is, indeed a
remedy for the liquor habit, the good
news should be spread far and wide.
None are too poor to test the cure, which,
in any event, can do no harm.

BEAT THE STRANGER.
After the hunters had held short con-
sultatiOn, they decided to have revenge,
and so they swooped down upon the IN
fortunate stranger and, beating him al
most to death, took his newly-won rife
away from him, and told him to get out
CT that section of the country or he would
be killed altogether.
The stranger replied Gentlemen, you
have treated me outrageOusly to-day, and

two Of them were shot down, as they
were entering their homes, both shot in

element, and hunt was made for the
stranger, but he was not found. The next
evening, as another of the hunters sat
cleaning his rife he heard a sharp click,
and looking around was shot in the left
eye. A week or longer after that
another, while shooting a squirrel
in the woods, heard the same
sharp click behind him, and, look

THE AVENGERS CHASE.
There were Eve of them left at the
end of two years, and the stranger con-
tiuued his chase after them, killing one in
the mountains of New Mexico, another in
South America and another in San Fran
cisco. The other two went to Africa, and
there, after hiding around for four or five
years, one day, as they sat in front of
their cottage, the same horrible click
of the rifle was heard, and iGvolun-
tarily both looked around. One was
shot in the left eve and the other
fed. He crossed the waters and sought
his old home He had grown repen ant

his native home, was one night assisting
in the yearly camp meeting revival, and

and received the fatal bullet. The
stranger was never caught, and to this
