a bill is now pending in Congress
which if passed will make the
Shiloh battlefield a National Park.
While we see no necessity for in
vesting the governments funds for
such a purpose, still if a useless ex
penditure is to be made, we would
prefer for this section of country to
be recipients of the money. In the
event of a passage of the bill, the
holders of the property would no
doubt receive much more for it than
they otherwise would.

u. s. Mail RO6ber Captured.

Since the 18th of last April,
money has been missed which
was sent over route No. b.
1872, leading from Bolivar
to Bethel Springs. The whole
amount of money missed from
last April until the 18th of
this month was about $33.
Postoffice Inspector Little in
his attempt to ferret out the
guilty party sent out several
decOy letters, but no evil
dence was procured from that
source. On Wednesday of
this week, a decoy package
was mailed at Rose Greek,
and on the same day a regis
tered package for Nashville
was also mailed from that
postOffce, and both were sent
through to BOLIVAR. Terrell
Anderson, a colored boy en-
ployed by III. E. Williams,
was the mail rider on that
day. G. M. Savage, the post
master at this place, was au-
thorized to open the decOy
letter on its arrival at this
Office, which he dio and found
that the money placed in
same had not been removed.
He then opened the register
ed letter sent from Rose
Greek and found everything
intact except the So bill.
This was indeed very
strong circumstancial proof
against the mail rider. Mr.,
Little, who arrived soon af-
ter the registered letter hsd
been opened, went, in COM
pany with Marshal Warren,
to II. E. Williams residence
and there arrested Terrell An
derson, and placed him in Jail
but no clue was found on his
person. 1t was noticed, how
ever, that one of his inside
vest pockets was turned out.
Soon after the arrest, a peck
ct book was found IN Mr..
Williams backyard contain
ing a five dollar bill bearing
the exact description of the
one registered. The cause
that led to suspicioning the
mail rider was evidence that
the mail sack had been tam
pered with. On examination,
it was seen that one of the
brads which was on the sta
pie that held the lock had
been removed, and that pOr-
ton of the sack between the
staple confirming the lock was
slit. Anderson was taken to
jackson by Inspector Little
and lodged in Jail to await
his trial in that city before
Federal Court.

DEATH OF w. w. FARLEY.

On Monday evening, Dec. 10th,
1894, w. w. Farley died at his res
idence in Bolivar, Tennessee, of
consumption of the bowels.
William w. Farley, the son of
Franklin B., and Mary P. Farley,
was born in Caswell County,
North Carolina, January 18TH,
1926. His parents moved to Ten
nessee in the year 1888, and settled
in Fayette Co. In the year 1s47,
w. w. Farley moved to Whiteville,
Hardeman County, where for sever
al years he taught school, during
the day, and at night kept books for
mercantile firms of that town. He
soon gave up teaching, and accep-
ted a position in the dry goods
store of Thomas b. Norment. After
cIerking for several years, he went
into the mercantile business for him
self, the style of the firm being Far
ley IL Burford, and later Farley 81
Johnson. Disposing of his interest
ia lhc G fS,E goods business, he retired
to his farm near Whiteville,
aud was engaged in agricultural
pursuits until 1876, when he was
elected Sheriff ofHardeman County,
which position he filed for six
years; his term of Office expiring by
constitutional limitation. After the
expiration of his term as Sheriff,
he became a candidate for County
Court Clerk, to which office he
was elected, and he filled the same
up to the time of his death.
In 1851, Mr.. Farley married
Mary J. Redd, daughter of Maj.
P. B. Redd, of Haywood County,
and sister of our townsman, Mr.. w.
j. Redd. His wife and one son,
William f. Farley, a prominent
citizen and prosperous farmer of
District No. 4, survive him.
The death of Mr.. Farley leaves a
vacancy that will be hard to fill.
He will be sadly missed, not only in
this immediate neighborhood, but
over the entire county. To him
many charitable deeds and kind acts
are to be attributed. 1t seemed to
be his chief delight to accommodate
others. His heart and purse were
ever open to his fellow man, and no
application for assistance to him was
ever refused. Many disputes and diff
ficulties have been avoided through
his influence. In his old home at
Whiteville, he acted as q general
arbitrator. Everybody had conf
dence in his judgment and ability.
As proof of their gratitude, during
his many canvasses for county offices
the vote of his old home district al
ways came up solid for him. He was
we'll versed in law, and his advice
was eagerly sought, ard freely Civ
en-. For such service he would
never accept remuneration. Highly
courteous, polite and ac-
cOmmOdating, he was a valuable
citizen. He was a man of remark
able memory, and up TO the time of
his death his mind was perfectly
clear. During the latter part of his
illness, he gave minute and accurate
in regard to the bust
ness of his office, and one of his last
acts was TO transmit to his deputy
from memory the correct combina-
tion of the safe, which consisted Of
twenty or more revolutions.
His body was laid to rest at the
home of his son, w. Z. Farley, in
4th Dist. The funeral services were
conducted by Rev. w. NJ. Nor
ment.

On the No Fence LQW.

EDITORS BULLETIN:-Since l
wrote you those few lines last week
on the no fence law, l find that
quite a number agree with me on
that subject.
Please let me explain in part why
| favor that law;
With cotton at FIVE cents pound,
the renters cannot afford to pay
enough rent to enable the land hol-
ders to keep up their fences, houses,
wells and pay taxes on the land.
The renter as well as the landlord
who lives on a farm with good fem
ees is hard to find. We have tried
the three wire fence but it will not
turn hogs. One of the greatest
troubles that farmers have, is with
one anothers' stock breaking into
their fields. So l say keep our
stock up and have less number and
better ones. am in favor of the
no fence law. J. J. HAzLEGRovE.

Wholesale Vaccination.

A few weeks ago the sultan of Turkey
mad his wives vaccinated. As no female
doctor had yet found her way to the Bos-
porus there was nothing for it but to
admit medical man to the apartments

Through this hole 167 of the most beau
tiful arms in the world were thrust forth
In succession. There were arms of
snowy white and ebony black--in short,
arms to suit all tastes-but the doctor
an Italian named Muracci, saw nothing
beyond these arms.

Heart Failure No Longer Accented.


The registration and sanitary commit
tee of the board of health has addressed
the following notice to the physicians of
the city;
LAS the board of health is doing all in
its power to prevent the spread of con-
tagious diseases, you are requested not
to place on any certificate heart failure
as the cause of death, but the disease of
which the patient was suffering prior to
the heart failure This term has never
been placed on the list of diseases adopt
ed by this board, it being looked upon as
a result of some other illness from which
the patient was suffering Furthermore
it furnishes an opportunity to conceal
contagious diseases, and thus permits the
ignoring of the rules of this board by the
family and undertaken either innocently
or designedly.
Hereafter burial permit will not be
issued on the certificate of death of
heart failure when unaccompanied with
the disease from which the heart failure
occurred. ."-Philadelphi Times.

Patchwork For Royalty,

An amusing episode occurred the other
day in connection with the royal we'd
ding. The Duke of York went with the
Princess May to open new town hall
which has just been erected at Rich
mond. Just before the royal party drove
up very old woman laden with an
enormous parcel pushed her way to the
front and refused to pay any attention
to the protests of either crowd or police.
When threatened with superior force, |"
however, she admitted that her object
was to present her wedding gift to the
royal couple. On inquiry this proved
to be gigantic patchwork quilt of
worsted stockings for the Duke of York
The old lady had made them and was
determined to present them herself II
was, however, represented to her that
this was an unsuitable occasion, and she
retired with the intention of taking
them to White lodge.-London Letter
