Desiring the readers of THE COMET
to know some OF the events that have
taken place in the quiet vicinity Of
Free Hill, now take pleasure in not
ing few Of the most important.
The farmers of this neighborhood are
doing very little toward their corn

siderable amount of rain We antic-

tizing at Buffalo Ridge last Sunday,
but were disappointed by the preacher,
Rev. W. G. Cox, not coming. We
learn he ia conducting a revival at
Fall Branch The Sabbath School
at Buffalo Ridge is progressing nicely.
... Miss Allie Boyd, of Slaughter, who
has been visiting her sister, Mrs. H "
Easley, OF this place, returned home
last week. Miss Allie is a charming
young lady, and we are sure her de-
parture caused some of the Free Hill
boys hearts to ache; and more espec-
tally the heart of one young man who
went down and spent the pleasant
Sabbath evenings listening to the me-
lodious notes Of the organ, accompa-
MED by that charming voice which
made him feel like he was in the midst
Of the Orchestra of Heaven. Be Of
good cheer, j, she will come
again. Dr. j. E. Shipley, who has
been attending lectures at Nashville
for the past four months, returned
home Sunday morning. The doctor
ls whole-souled fellow, and by his
return made glad the hearts of his
many friends, We presume the doc.
D:'s heart was also gladdened by hear
the chime of his Belle that had been
silent since his absence. Rev Frank

THE ELECTION is OVER.
Two Democratic ana Two Republican
Aldermen the Result Of YeSter-
DAVIS Brittle.

AhtbNs
The election yesterday was quiet
affair all over the city In the First
ward "Uncle" John Cameron, Demo.
crat, was elected without opposition
Only sixty votes We're cast In the
Second ward the real fight occurred,
M. Jackson and |. N. BecknerI repre-.
senting theDemocratic andRepublican
parties resp ctively,ran neck and neck
all day. 223 votes were cast, Is OF
which were marked and thlown out by
the judges. OF the illegal votes IA
were for Beckner and for Jackson.
OF the legal votes cast Jackson received
40 and Beckner 49, The votes thrown
out were declared illegal because they
were marked in violation of law. They
bore the name OF II. G. Hart for mag
istrate, and thereby hangs tale. 1t
seems that II. G. Hart, who declined
to make the race for magistrate last
August in specially prepared circular
issued on election day, conceived the
idea, or got it some way, that this was
the year to elect successor to magis
trate Osborne and, realizing that it
would be useless to make the race for
the nomination, decided to ring in a
cold deal, 1t was a trick worthy OF
the man and his friends, all of whom
it is intimated by knowing ones, voted
for him. There is no doubt of the
illegally OF the proceeding and Mayor
Hart is being roundly denounced for
adopting such methods to secure Office
Mr.. Hart and his brigade of fifteen
friends claim to know what they ART
doing and to be acting upon the advice
of the best legal talent in the Stat,
which has led some to believe that tn,
| may VI uiu uUL llhNG w lcdN0 HIS DullO'
ing to consult the talent referred to
As matters now stand, however, it il
likely contest will be made by I'll,
mayor as we'll as by Alderman Becl
ner, who was beaten by the illega
votes, and all the facts and law points
will be brought out in due course Of
time.
In the Third ward Collect, Rep.
defeated Hyder by 4S to q and in The
Fourth ward where P. II. Wofford was
"going it alone" he was elected by As
votes. AS a result of the election the
board will have five Republican anG
and three Democratic Alderman, .
gain of one Democrat.

ALDERMAN JACKSON.

Office,

= At an early hour this morning
the board met to canvas the result
of yesterdays election, in accord
ance with the law, and in the alb
sence of Mayor Hat John w
Cameron was elected mayor pro
tenn. The aldermen present were:
J. M. Martin, P. II. Woford, ]. F
Bowman, D. H, Jones and w. C.
Snapp. AS a result of the investi-
cation a certificate of election was
issued to M. Jackson, he having re-
ceived majority of the legal votes
cast. The certificate was signed by
the mayor, pro tenn, and Aldermen
Martin, Woh,ord, Bowman, and
Snapp, and duly attested by Re
corder Dean. who affixed his seal OF
office Later on Mr.. jackson took
the oath of Office before Squire
Martin and is now full-hedged
city father and will prove a credit
to the city. Mr.. Jackson deserve
special mention for the admirable
race he made. He entered the con
test handicapped by Republican
majority of Al, and won by twelve
votes. 1t was at once one of TIL
cleanest and fercest political bat
ties ever waged in this city, ant
was won by Jackson on merit alone
and he is now receiving the con
gratulations of his friends in boil
parties with that characteristic goo'
humor that renders him justly pop

SAM JONES IN DISFAVOR.
His Sensational Preaching Draws
Crowds But No Money at st. Louis.

CINCINNATI, March 24.-Says a ST.
Louis dispatch TO today's Tribune :
Sam Jones, the evangelist, who has
been conducting three weeks revi
val in this city, Is not meeting with
satisfactory financial support, and an
nounces that the meetings will close
tomorrow night
Notwithstanding the fact that an
audience of 5000 people attended
each meeting, and were sonorous in a
chorus OF "amens," there was a curren
cy boycott in operation against the
collectors, and as consequence the
hackers OF Rev. Mr.. Jones have been
forced to make up deficiency each
night.
In addition to this, the authenticity
Of number of Sam Jones' stories has
been succer stully disputed by local
newspaper, thereby shaking the belief
of his listeners.
Iu one Of these stories he gave the
narrowing details OF a wealthy Cincin-
NATHAN going to a Longworth street
resort and Unexpectedly fading his
sister an inmate. Calling in the Other
women, he dramatically made known
his identity, shot his sister and then
committed suicide. This tragedy he
claimed occurred quite recently.
When this was proven untrue he bit
