Still They Come,

EDITOR TINES; John c. Houk
sent me the so called Republican
Leader in which | found the affidavit
of A. ]. Robinson in which he repre-
sented me as being strong Gibson
worker and that brought John Nc
Peters Georgia rebel to the polls on
March the 10th 1894 and voted him
for Gibson. | wish to state first that
! was not Gibson worker and never
asked any one to vote for Gibson on
March 10. | went to the voting
place in the 8 dist. in which l reside
in the morning and voted and return
ed home for dinner. | went to
Maryville in the afternoon on bust
ness. Just IN front of the court
house met the said John McPeters
who was talking with Charlie Broadly.
| soon learned that he was mad. l
asked him what was his trouble and
he told me that A. ]. Robinson the
toe head had challenged his vote and
they wanted him to swear that he
was republican and said that he
had always lived in Blount county
and had always voted the republican
ticket and did think it was necessary
for him to have to swear that he was
a republican. ! told him not to be
beat out of his vote that l know that
he voted the republican ticket from
top to bottom in the last National
election and would swear it if neces-
sary. He then called for a ticket
and said he wanted to vote for Glib
son. He voted without one word
being SAID to him about the man OF
his choice. l know John McPeters
from a boy Notwithstanding his
parents being rebels he has always
been republican. Still A. J.. Rob
inson swears he is a rebel and on
such evidence as this and John
Presley and one or two others Of the
same kind. John Houk declares us
fraud. Every sensible man knows
that John Houk like drownding
man is grabbing at straw and fol
his own personal gain would be
willing to see the republicans Of this
congressional district sinks beneath
his tyrannical hand. Now republicans
let us stand together and show John
Houk and his little committee and
his democrats hackers that we will
not be troden down by them.

Second PRESBYTERIAN.
c. III. TRUSTY Pastor.

The Mission Band, connected with
the 2rd Presby, Church met last
Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clobk, was
largely attended and the meeting, in
every way, was interesting and pro
htable. Mrs. Hail, lady missionary
who has been laboring in India for
fourteen yaers, favored us with an
excellent address on that subject,
which was strikingly interesting and
highly appreciated by all who heard
her. We trust the Lord will bless
her, in her self-sacrifcing labor for
Christ.
Sunday evening we were favored
with good sermon by Mr.. Wallace,
a student IN Maryville College. We
hope more of our strong educated
young men will consecrate themselves
to the work of the gospel minstery
and help us take the world for Christ.
After the sermon, Mr.. ChaS. Schaef-
fers, was elected by the congregation
and ordained by the minister. to the
office of deacon, in the end Presby.
Church. We are proud of the
choice of the congregation, because
Mr.. Schaeffers is worthy young men
exemplary in work and action,

The series of meetings conducted
during the last three weeks by Rev.
Thomas Sexton, ''the blacksmith
preacher" closed last Friday night
with the interest of the people seem
ingly unabated. The great success
of Mr.. Sexton here, has been simply
wonderful. A revival Of religion was
started here last November, under
the preaching of Rev. Nathan Bach
man, the Presbyterian evangelist,
and has continued almost without in
terruption up to the present time,
having been carried on by other
revivalist, and by the pastors Of the
different churches. After four
months had passed with preaching
every afternoon and every night, and
the church well filled at every
service; after it seemed that almos,
every unconverted man and woman
in the town who could be reached
by the preachers had been converted,
after the Christians had almost worn
themselves out attending church da,
and night, and laboring to bring
sinners to the cress, Mr.. Sextor
came and began to preach. AT onct
all the tagging interest of the people
was renewed. They flocked to hea
the uneducated blacksmith, and tn,

night. Sixty conversions have beer

A Star Drama, will be played in
the Columbian Hall Thursday Even
ing, in behalf of the colored and
Presbyterion Church. The name of
the play is, "The Danger Signal. +"
1t is a play of the highest order; Of
merit, one of Mr.. 7. S. Dennison' S
best. 1t consists of eleven characters.
There are no weak characters in it.
There are leading man, middle aged
(very strong) an Irish and Dsrkey
Comedians. Irish maid-of-all-work
old lady, with great wisdom excellent
understanding and foresight to divine
future events. Young heroine,
young lady with more money than
brain, a quack doctor full of thories,
"a United States engineer and SEN
timental young SILLY old) bachelor,
Place, lonely island in the Great
Lakes" The .palt hinges on the
central idea of Enheld's Wrong, by
Chas Norman, his burning desire for
revenge which takes absolute posses
sion of him with the subordinate idea
of concealing Stella's identity. This
play is without doubt, one Of the very
best plays on modern Stages.
It's humor is rich and abundant;
its pathos touching and it is highly
interesting in every stage of its
development.
The "Danger Signal" is cerainly
equal to the Louva (The Panper)
and "Under the Laurels''. We
know the people of Maryville never
miss that which is good and worthy OF
their presence. We cordially invite
the friend and well wishers, to show
their appreciation by filling the house.
You will have to come early, if you
wonld get comfortable seats.

THE MILITARY BALL
rendered THE VISITING MILITIA IN
THE CAPITOL LAST NIGHT.
Fully Two thousand Visitors Were in
Attendance, and the Ball Was
Glowing Success, the Pleasures
Of Which Were Prolonged
Until 2 a. m.

Seldom in the history of the society
"fulctions" of the capital city has
such scene of brilliancy and ami
mated pleasure presented itself to
public gaze as was prevalent last ev-
ening upon the occasion of the grand
military ball at the state capital. 1t
was 10 o'clock last night before any
one began to arrive at the scene Of
action, but between that hour and
II o'clock the crowd fairly poured in
and by the time the band started
up the opening march the hall and
corridors of the Hall of Representa-
tives was fairly packed with pleasure
seekers.
Governor Hogg, rugged out in
grand full dress suit and looking as
handsome as god, led the grand
march accompanied by Mrs. Ed M.
House. General Mabry and Mrs. DR..
Tyner came next, then General and
Mrs. o. S. Roberts, General Smythe
and Mrs. Mabry, and SC on down the
list. With the ball we'll started the
merry dancers never tired of going
the giddy whirl and it was 2 O'Clock
this morning when the closing strains
of "Home, Sweet Homen brought the
ball with all it's enjoyment to a close.
There were fully 1000 dancers on the
lower floor, embracing among the lot
distinguished guests from almost
every city in the state. The mill
tary, in whose honor the ball
was given, were out in force enjoying
the pleasures of the occasion and it is
safe to say they had their fill of pleas.
ure. Not only the military but the
private citizens of Austin and those
from other cities are endebted to Mr..
Jno. Peeler as chairman OF the COM
mittee of the ball for his untiring
energy in furthering the success OF
the affair. He has worked ind efati-
gably in looking to the success of
the ball and that he was pre.emi-
nently successful therein was fully
demonstrated last night in the COM
plete success of the evening. Outside
of the committees already published,
DIR. Chas. s. Morse was acting as as.
sistant manager and performed the
duties of that effice to the entire salts
faction of all.
When the dancers became tired of
the blare of music they retired to dark
hooks in the halls or wandered out on
the balconies where many little loving
tete-a-tetes were INDUCED. Some OF
the couples became so oblivious of
their surrounding as to crowd through
the big windows and occupy seats out
on the wide coping. 1t matte ed little
to them where they were inasmuch
as they were enjoying themselves and
as the ball management were equally
pleased everything went merry as

AFTER all, is the sleeping travelling
public to make anything out oil the
strike? Are any other sleeping car
companies going to bounce in against
Pullman's monopoly, give the public
wider berths and order the porter hot
to lower the upper berth if ne has no
customer for it? There are a NUMBER
of little things that Pullman might
do for the public in consideration VI
their standing ty him in the late
strike. For instance, very materially
reduce the cost of berth.
