TRADE.

Sir, I wish to say that in my opinion
that there is no mar in the bounds of
the fret judicial Circuit better qualified
and more deserving, to fill the response
BILE position of Judge than Andrew j.
Brown. No Judge since the late war,
has given such thorough and general
satisfaction to the people of johnson
County. j Judge Brown needs the office
another term, from the fact, that on
the 18th, day of last August he was so
unfortunate as to lose a large portion
of his honest earnings by fire. He is
an able lawyer, but the loss of hislarge
library and his advanced age will not
permit him to return again to the prac-
tice of law. Consequently, l am thor
oughly satisfied that he should be re-
elected and if left to a Primary l think
that Judge Brown will receive eight
tenths of the votes of Johnson County.
Veterans remember, that when A. j.
Browns services were needed in the
late Rebellion, he was by your side.
Now he needs yours. Stand by him
and support him. A. A. DoTsoN.

NOTES FROM THE HILL.

After a vacation of nearly two weeks
the Jonesboro Graded School is again
in a flourishing condition. Both teach
ers and scholars entered upon their
work with renewed vigor and energy.
No more rest for the weary until next
May. There are five months of work
yet, which must be put in faithfully if
we expect to cross the dead line. The
literary entertainment given by the
two societies on December 20 1898, was
pronounced O success in every way.
The tenth grade has begun Virgil,
which we think is going to be quite in
teresting. The members of the gradu-
ating class are now preparing to write
their essays and orations for commence
ment. These have to be finished by
the first of May. La Grippe is prevel
ent on the hill at present. tits thought
that Albert Sabin Ia senior is making
moonshine whisky, as he goes to the
mountains very regularly. The Bainon-
Man Society reorganized and elected
new officers last Friday, and is now
ready to begin earnest work again.
About all the former students have re.
turned. We are very sorry to lose Miss
Mary Emma Cate, who soon leaves for
a new home in Texas. One of the boys
has returned minus his moustache:
otherwise the school is pretty much as
usual. Our enrolment is now 285, let
us make it 300. The Ninth Grade be-
gun Physical Geography last week.

EBENEZER.

We thought the readers of the Herald
and Tribune would like to hear from
us, so we, the Fourth Grade, write a
few lines. Our school is getting along
real nicely, our teacher, A. ]. Slagle
gave US a week holidays. He took a
pleasant trip to Knoxville, where he
and his family spent the holidays real
pleasantly with friends and relatives.
He visited the deaf and dumb asylum;
says he enjoyed the school very much,
but was sorry there we so many bright
eyed and minded boys and girls who
could not talk or hear. Says the teach
ers were real sociable, particularly a
lady by the name of Mrs. Boyd. He
returned December 81, with his sister
in law. Miss Lydia Roddie, who will
spend some time with his family in
Jonesboro, then will return to her home
in Knoxville. He was on hand at Eb-
enezer New Years morning to take
charge of his school. l tell you be is
very strict OF us, he don't allow any
swearing, fighting, lying, note writing,
no counting. Some of us have broken
his rules, but he punished us for it.
We like Mr.. Slagle, because he is strict
and tries very hard to teach us; we are
all getting along real nicely, will have
a real nice time at the close of school.
We had q real fine time New Years
night at Jul entertainment, and every.
thing went off nicely. We have been
having Sunday School here for owe
five years without missing a Sunday
with w. S. Hickey for superintendent
and hope the good work will last al
ways. FOURTH GRADE.
