A GRAND ENTERPR Use.

The Presbyterian Women's Executive
Board of New York City have spent
several thousand dollars, (just how
much we are not informed,) in estab-
fishing an industrial school for boys in
connection with Washington College.
The outlay has been made in the pur-
chase of lands, farming machinery and
the erection of a c%ommodious and sub.
stantial frame building on the college
campus. This building was erected
under the supervision of that master
workman, ]. H. Willis, and is first
class in all respects. 1t is heated by
steam, four stories high and contains
sixty furnished rooms. The building
and its equipment cost s 1900.
This department Of Washington Col.
lege furnishes the means to every needy
and m%eritorious boy to obtain a first
class education. 1t is not a place to
pamper vagabonds nor to reform the
vicious, but the object is to extend a
helping hand to those who have worth,
energy and aspirations, but are with
ont the means to meet college expen-
ses.
Every good citizen should feel a per-
sonal interest and pride in the growth
of this enterprise. 1t appeals directly
to the favoring consideration of every
patriot, as it must add constantly and
greatly to the intellectual and material
development and progress of u entire
section.
The generous, Christian people who
provided these educational facilities
have no immediate interest in Wash
ington College, and in what they have
given and may give in the future they
have been and will be actuated by the
sole purpose and desire to do a great
good for this section. And in return
for their generosity, an obligation rests
upon our people not to disappoint their
hopes and expectations by a failure to
duly appreciate their munifcence.

WE see occasionally in some Of the
Democratic papers statements to the ef-
feet that business is improving and
that the country is in a more prosperous
condition than 1t has been for some
time, but have failed to see the real
reason for the condition given. Per-
haps the following from the Morning
Advertiser, of New York, will afford
some light on the subject:
When Republican newspapers prophe-
sled revived national prosperity as the
result Of Republican victory last Novem-
Der they told the truth. The crushing
defeat Of the Democratic wreckers in
every Northern State has unbarred the
factory doors and relighted the furnace
fires. The certainty that we shall have
no more imbecile and ruinous Demo-
cratic tariff legislation, the knowledge
that the Fifty Fourth House is over
whelmingly protectionist and Republic
can, the dominant belief that the cleo
tons next year will firmly intrench Re-
publicanism and Americanism in control
Of every branch of the Federal Govern
ment, has inspired a renewal of indus
trial activity whose evidences are seen
in increased production and rising wages
on every hand. The great iron and steel
industries have promptly responded to
the signal announcing that the track
was clear and it vas safe to go ahead.
Agricultural staples have risen in price.
The demands Of the home market, in
spite Of the increased importations of
foreign goods under the new tariff, are
rapidly expanding, owing to the increas-
ing employment Of labor and the grow
ing ability of the people to purchase the
comforts Of life.
American energy, enterprise and cour-
age are asserting themselves with old
time vigor now that the of Demo-
cratic destruction has been removed.
Republican principles and policies are
being vindicated with unexampled com
pleteness by the progress of events.

DEARE.

Thomas Deare died at his home in
Jonesboro, Tenn, May II, 1895. The
funeral services were held in the Bap.
fist church and were attended by a
large congregation of people.
Mr.. Deare had been in failing health
for some months, but was confined to
his bed only about three weeks. He
bore his sufferings with marked pa
tience, and from the first seemed i'm
pressed that he could never get we'll.
He seemed perfectly resigned. His
friends say that never a murmur escap-
ed his lips during all his sufferings.
He was a member of the Baptist
Church and repeatedly expressed q hope
of the life beyond, during his last ILL
ness. Those who knew Mr.. Deare we'll
say that he was upright in his business
transactions. Mr.. Deare leaves a wife
who has the respect and sympathy of
all who knew her. s. T.

BELLS SCHOOL HOUSE.

Quite a number of people assembled
at the waters edge where baptism was
administered Sunday; after repairing
to the house Of worship a very appro-
pirate sermon subject: 1.-THE Spirit and
the Bride say come," was delivered by
A. j. Vines, of this place. If the atten-
tive audience were not made better it
surely could not be for lack of many
important lessons. He impressed us
very deeply of our duty as followers of
the blessed Master, the great duty to
help III brethren and sisters and es.
pecially those who are young in the
service of God. We too often wait until
deaths icy hand has taken them away
to feel our duty toward them, and all
we a then do is pay the last tribute
Of respect, look in the casket at a mar
BILE like form and shed a farewell tear
and place q bunch of roses on a mound
of clay. The following quotation is a
strong reminder of our daily duty:
Yesterday is yours no longer; tomor-
row may never be yours, but today is
yours. The living present is yours,
and in the living present stretch from
and to the things in the future" Rob.

will sell the oliver Chill plows, as
sisted by his much respected cousin,
John; the boys have our best wishes.
Miss Birdie Morris is visiting her
mother, of this place. Mrs. Branscom,
an old lady who Is very near ninety
four years old, was at church at this
place Sunday. In this neighborhood
we have several very old mothers who
are only waiting for the summons of
their master; they are standing on the
brink of the grave, soon, oh, how soon
they will step over. Grandmother
Vines is ninety one; Grandmother Cas-.
sadly is about eighty FIVE, Grandmother
Jones about eighty. May God sustain
them in their declining years and real
up others for Christ. FRANCIS.

ANOTHER BLACK DISGRACE.

If Turneyism is the pure, honest,
sanity article that a superlative few
claim for it, the Tennessee Senate did
a very indecent and reprehensible thing
in refusing to confirm the nomination
of Frank Smith for State Superintend-
ant of Public Instruction. Smith is
decidedly now as heretofore the biggest
part and parcel of the lobster-nosed ad.
ministration under which we now live.
He is as perfect a speciman of the Tur-
ney machine politician as the turkey
buzzard is of the foul birds who live on
carrion. Scurility and profanity give
inimitable lest and grace to his classic
form of speech; his brutal ruffianism
is a decided improvement on the old
fashioned styles Of the sand bag artist;
and his are multifarious to
prove that he is more capacitated for q
bum Of the dive than for an honorable
position, OIL association with honorable
men. He has, also, demonstrated his
wonderful capacity to work "Old Pete"
in the interest of the coal oil inspectors
and p%enitentiary gang, and all other
schemes in which there is rich fat with
much elegant leisure. In his murder
GUS attack upon Judge Butler, for
which he is indicted in the criminal
court of Davidson County, he proved
himself a slugger and desperate of no
low order. He was just the man to re-
fleet the genuine character of the usurp-
er and the usurpation under which Ten
nessee languishes today. The type of
all that is mean, low, disgusting, venal
and vicious in partisan politics, a viola
tor of the law, a ~cowardly bully, a
coarse, brass armored brute as shame
less as the red sign of sin. Frank
Smith should, according to the eternal
fitness Of things, have been put on the
throne, clad in the garish robes of the
harlot alongside with the "lobster-nos.
ed usurper," SO ttat Frank could smell
Of Peter and Peter could smell Of Frank
as they, a brace of couspirators against
the rights of the people-rotted away
together in the fetid foulness of their
common crimes.

Newspaper Comments on the Governor
shin Steal.

The Tennessee Legislature dropped the
game OF gu%bernatorial larceny long
enough to indorse the free coinage OF
silver.
Tho Tennessee Democrats seem to be
holding their own, together with a gov
ernorship which belongs to II. Clay
Evans.
We fear Hon. II. Clay Evans will never
be able to get the Tennessee Democrats
in touch with the political conscience
fund.
The Tennessee Democrats are at least
ashamed to call it by its right name.
They refer to it as "a g~ubernatorial in
vestigation."
If Hon. Pete Turney cares to be cited
to a horrible example there is ex-Gov.
John NJ. Thayer, of Nebraska, for in
stance.
In Il opinion ii. Clay Evans is but
wasting his manifestoes on q crowd that
has gone so far that it is afraid to stop
n reason.
We think we understand "Governor"
Turney on one special point. He doesn't
take any stock in the "office-seekingthe-
man" foolishness.
II the martyrdom system of naming
the next Republican candidate for the
Vice presidency obtains, Hon. III. Clay
Evans will undoubtedly have the call.
The Tennessee constitution is being
made to do service as the political India
rubber man.
The Tennessee Democrats may be a few
shy on details, but they are undoubtedly
determined to see that Turney remains
counted in.
The Chattanooga Times has discovered
that everything has been arranged for
counting out II. Clay Evans. We have
suspected as much from the very start.
The Tennessee Democrats are meeting
and passing resolutions, but they show
no disposition to return the stolen guber-
Material goods.
The Tennessee Democrats have con-
summated their theft Of the Governor
ship, and thereby made it very likely
that the State will give its electoral vote
to the mex Republican candidate for
President.
The Tennessee Legislature has been
engaged for months in keeping in office
q few men who were not elected, and
this petty business continues to monop-
Ollie its entire time. If State Legisla-
lures could meet only once in four years
q new elements of common sense and
responsibility would be added to Ameri-
can politics.

OBITUARY.
VINCENT.

Jerome Vincent was born and died
near Fall Branch, Tenn. His earthly
life began January 95, 1854, and ended
March Z, 1896. He was well born; the
home in which he first saw the light Of
this world was in the true sense of the
term a Christian home; his religious
instruction from his sainted father and
the mother who survives him, began in
early infancy and continued until his
moral character was moulded into the
beauty, symmetry and strength Of a
noble manhood. When a little boy he
gave his heart and consecrated his life
to Jesus, and identified himself with
the NJ. E. ChuIc h at Fall Branch, Tenn,
with which class he remained connected
until his membership was transferred
to the church triumphant which is
without fault before the throne of
God"
My acquaintanceship dates from his
youth or early manhood, and having
been frequently a guest both in his
fathers home and in his own, and also
as presiding elder for four years asso
ciated with him In church relations l
have had opportunity to observe him
in the various relations of life. His
flial affection for, and the assiduous
attention he gave his aged parents was
to me very touching and marked him
in my estimation as a model son; his
uniform courtesy and kindness as a
husband and father made his home a
delight to all. In the church he never
sought prominence as an official, he
seemed rather to shrink from public
duties, but whatever was required of
him was performed cheerfully and
well. He delighted in the services of
the sanctuary, appreciated highly the
Christian ministry, and from principle,
gave literally to the support of the
gospel and the institutions of the
church.
The immediate cause of his death
was erysipelas; his illness was of two
weeks duration; he was rational most
Of the time, and realized the critical
nature of his disease very early, and
closely examined the foundation on
which his hopes rested. He admitted
that in his religious experience, doubts
and fears bad alternated with the
bright and joyous realization of accept
ance with Christ. When called to con
front death, however, no cloud inter-
vened between him and the face of his
Savior-he knew in whom he trusted
and realized that
"Jesus can make a dying bed
Feel soft as downy pillows are"
At n time he said: II can almost
see the angels and arch angels. ""What
q meeting there will be-"
His deep solicitude for his family
weighed heavily on his mind and heart
for a time, but grace triumphed-it
proved sufficient, "and to his weeping
wife he said, "Cordia, take the little
ones around your knee and pray with
them, raise them right and all meet me
in heaven" He leaves four children
the three Oldest, boys-ranging in
age from thirteen to nine, and a baby
girl less than two years old. May his
Christian example, counsel, and influ-
ence abide in the hearts of his loved
ones; and his children be led to emulate
his noble life on earth and finally all
be gathered with him in our Fathers
house above. ]. S. PETTY.
