Two bills which have been favorably re-

PRIVATE AND SPECIAL LEGISLATION.
Governor Cleaves sale today that the last

Fatal Passenger wreck.

A fatal passenger wreck on the L.
& N. occurred Wednesday morning
about ii o'clock at Henry, Tenn, a
small station about midway between
Paris and Mckenzie, in which several
persons are reported killed and a
number of others injured. One re-
port has it that it was No.1O3, which
left GAINESVILLE Wednesday morning
at 1882, which had collided with a
freight train at a point near Henry
Station, and that four persons were
known to have been killed, and the
coaches thrown from the track. The
names of the killed and wounded
could not be learned.

Heavy sales and Big Prices.

Our tobacco market this week was
all that could be asked, big prices
prevailing where fine goods were Of
fered and offerings being heavier
than at any time this season. Sales
were about 800 hogsheads, with offer
ings but slightly in excess. Several
hogsheads of wrappery leaf ranged
in the teens and one of this class sold
at $3.50. Lugs were also in demand
and were reported shade stronger,
where well ordered. Receipts are
very heavy and are increasing at a
rapid rate. Large shipments of the
weed continue to come in from the
surrounding counties and from many
points 30 or rs miles away. The
loose market is moving along smooth
ly, but there is no special activity be-
ing displayed in this branch of the
tobacco business.

Manager Galbreath succeeded in
getting the celebrated Nashville Ath-

and the first game came off at the
park yesterday afternoon. This club
played Hopkinsville last year and put
up an excellent game and this season
the nine has been much strengthen

witness the fun this afternoon will be
well pleased. The game will be
called at 2:30 in order that the Nash

is over. The Nashville Maroons,
booked to play here this week, will
not be on hand, but will make a date

a Murderer Escapes.

VIM. Mallory, COL, who murdered
his step-father, Luke Allen, last Fri
day near GAINESVILLE, was captured
by Sheriff Collier near st. Bethlehem,
Monday afternoon, but soon after
made break for liberty, jumped a
wire fence and escaped among the
bluffs on Spring creek. He was first
seen shooting rabbits along the rail
roads track, being armed with the
same pistol with which he committed
the murder. Mallory is running
through the c,.untry barefooted, ter
rorizing every negro he meets by
drawing his pistol on them. Officers
are securing the country for Mallory
and it is not likely that it will be
many days before he will be landed
in jail. 1t is believed now that he is
in hiding in the southern part of this

MRs. CLEVELAND has had a goo

Mrs. CLEVELAND has had a good
laugh over some stories which she
recently saw in print about her right
arm being frightfully swollen at the
finish Of white house reception.
According to the story. she was near
ly dead with fatigue and pain when
the last caller in the line had passed,
and needed 8 restorative to avoid a
hit of fainting. As a matter of fact.
Mrs. Cleveland says these receptions
do not tire her very much, and she
ascribes the strength of her good
right armand a very pretty arm it
is-in part to the development of the
muscles produced by her indulgence
in tennis while she was a girl. and in
part also by her knack Of shaking
hands in such way that she does
all the gripping and shaking. and
avoids too much squeezing and
wrenching. There is an art in hand
shaking. as everyone knows who has
had much of it to do. and Mrs.
Cleveland is such q master of it that
she laughs at the idea of her arm be-
ing swollen and painful after an en-
counter with 5000 or 1000 guests al

not made nicotine directly as yet, but it
has very nearly reached it, and the Ia.

fairly be expected at any time. Conine,
the poisonous principle of hemlock, has
been made alphabetically, and it is so

The debt OF gratitude which this
country owes to Henry Watterson is
almost incalculable. No man north
or south has done as much as the ed
itor and statesman of Louisville TO
bind the sections in friendship and
charity. The fact that northern
money has poured into southern
trade, while southern men settling in
the big cities of the north have been
received with open arms and adj
yanced to positions of great honor,
must be credited largely to the con-
tinued, the generous. the eloquent
messages which Mr.. Watterson has
carried to and fro across Mason and
Dixon's line.
He added another to his distin-
guished services of patriotism Tues
day night by his Grafton on Lincoln.
OF all the panegyrics pronounced

most eloquent, sympathetic and just.

things that have been said about Liza
