A RACE TO STOP A SALE.

Knoxville, Tenn, Jan. 1.-THE other
day G.. A. Drutzler obtained a judgment
in the circuit court of Morgan county
against the Frankfort Land Company for
1865 and the hotel and furniture on the
premises were to be sold at noon Wednes-
day to satisfy said judgment. The COM
pany obtained an order from
Judge Key, of the United States
court enjoining the sale, which
order came into the hands of Marshal
Condor late Tuesday for service. The
hotel is situated about seventy miles
from Knoxville, and good portion of the
distance was to be made on horseback
over two or three ranges Of mountains,
and some hustliug was certainly necessary
to stop the sacrifice of valuable property
at this sale, where other creditors were
equally interested. The marshal placed
the order in the hands of Deputy
Marshal Sensey with instructions to
"git thar" The officer arrived
on the grounds a few minutes before
the sale occurred and had il stopped.
The Frankfort Land Company has some
90 900 acres of land in that section of
Morgan county on which it intends TO

a number Of Swedes are located there.

TO ESTABLISH A NURSERY.
The Kings Daughters Work in Behalf
of Poor Little Ones.

of Poor Little Ones.
There is a movement on foot to estab-
lish Kings Daughters nursery in Sa-
yannah. The object of such an institu-
tionis to give home to little children
that are too young to enter an orphan
asylum. It is to be strictly non-sectarian.
and will be the means of caring for
great many poor children, who are now
dependent on others for their livelihood
and guidance. In many cases these little
ones are left in charge of totally disinter-
ested parties, and necessarily their com
fort and life are of a secondary COnsidera-
ton.
The nursery will have special depart
ment to take care of the children during
the day while the parents are at work.
Anominal fee will be charged to those
who can afford it and the poorer ones
will be taken care of free.
There are seventeen circles of the
Kings Daughters in Savannah who are
directed in their work by Miss M. Reid,
secretary for Chatham county. The num-
Der of Kings Daughters in this city is
over $50, who are earnestly working to
relieve the sick and poor.
The proposed nursery has been def
nitely decided upon and will no doubt re-
Ceive hearty and cordial support from
all, without regard to creed. The bene-
fits derived from a nursery of this kind
are manifold, the good done cannot be
conceived and such noble and earnest
workers as the Kings Daughters will be
readily assisted by many who know what
beneficial results arise from such lauda-
Bile undertaking. 81.

TWO SPEECHES ON HAWAII.
Davis Goes for-the President and Tur-
pie Lays Out Stevens.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE Senate was
entertained to-day with two able speeches
on the subject of Hawaii. The first was by
Mr.. Davis, rep, of Minnesota, in continu-
alton of that which he had commenced yes
terday; and the second was by Mr.. Turpie,
DEM, of Indiana.
Mr.. Davis argued that the appoint
ment of MIR. Blount as commissioner to
Hawaii without the advice and consent of
the Senate, was presidential invasion of
the privileges of the Senate, for which he
found parallel only once in the history
of imperial Rome. The hauling down of
the American flag in Honolulu came in
for much denunciation on the part of Mr..
Davis, in which he was sustained by
other republican senator's; and he wound
up his speech by the declaration that, in
the sublime Judgment of the American
people, the Presidents Hawaiian and
fiscal policy would be condemned.
TURPIE DENoUNcEs STEVENS.
Mr.. Turpie took the broad ground that
the provisional government of Hawaii
was a de-facto government which could
not rightfully be interfered with, but
that no treaty or project of annexation
with it could be hOnorably entered into
by the American government. Minister
Stevens was held up to execration as an
unworthy minister, and man for his coarse
expressions as to the queen who had been
his hostess for many months, and ne was
characterized in Mr. Turpies forcible
language as spy, an migrate, and an out
law.
Messrs. Davis and Turpie each occu-
pied the floor for two hours. The other
business of the day was unimportant.
After a short executive session, the
Senate at 8 p. IN. adjourned till to-

DANGER JUST AHEAD.
Prominent Professor Speaks About the

Time of the Year,

A Prominent Professor Speaks About the
Threatening Things Abroad at This
Time of the Year.
1T is surprising how many people are sut-
fering to day from so-ealled coughs, colds and
influenza"
The remark was made by a very prominent
professor, connected with one Of the leading
New York hospitals. Continuing, he said:
1T is not these things that are troubling
people, but it is an advanced form Of our old
enemy, the grip. People feel out of sorts,
sneeze, have pains in the muscles and bones,
have no Appetite lose all interest in the world
and wonder what is the matter. 1t is the grip;
nothing else.
Now, all such symptoms need to have
prompt treatment. The attack must be met
and repealed at once, or il is certain to run
into something serious. / know of but one
way to certainly avoid these troubles which
are now SO common, and that is, to imme-
diately counterfeit them by using a good,
pure, strong stimulant. Nothing of the ordi-
nary kind, but something pure and scientific.
For this purpose nothing has ever equaled
Duffys Pure Malt Whiskey, which is ac
t1tc people to be the only pure, medicinal
malt whiskey upon the market"
The words of the professor are true and
they carry a wonderful meaning to many
men and women who are suffering with the
first symptoms Of grip, or else grip in its ad-
vanced stages. For ali such people we offer
a word of advice; which is to take the best
means to overcome these troubles and do not
permit any dealer to swerve you from your
purpose to have that which has proven itself
by years of use, to be the best and pureSt
stimulant in the world.
