disposed this week
Mr. A. j.. Hassell, OF Big Sandy,
was here last week
Mr. g. W. Robins, Of Gillie. was
| up Sunday con business
We understand that Mr.. s. II.
Wheatley fondly anticipates seeing
a "friend" Sunday.
This section experienced a hail
storm Monday, but 40 serious re-
suits are reported.
Constable w. r. Greer, of Enloe,
was here Wednesday Of last week
on official business.
Mr. A. G. Berry, who has been
confined to his room with mumps
is able 10 be- out again
Mr. A. II. Wynn visited at Enloe
Sunday. Better watch your COR
ners at home, young man.
Miss Lizzie Ellis, who has been
visiting at WHY, has returned 70
| her home at West Danville.
/ Children's day will be observed
at Crooked Greek next Sunday.
The surrounding Sunday schools
are especially invited TO attend.
MIR. u. G. Mobiles, of the Sulphur
Creek, was up Sunday. Lester has
good tenor voice, but we observ-
ed that he did not hold it all the
|, evening.
Messrs. j. u. Mobiles and p. H
Fitzsimmons, of Faxon, attended
singing at Crooked Greek Sunday.
Close observation has convinced us
that the former is almost pursuaded
to cast his lot with ms.
E Farming in this section, and es-
peeially on Tennessee River, has
+ been retarded somewhat ON account
! of the continued dry weather A
few farmers, however, have finish.
q ed planting their crops.
r Mr. nj. l.. Lindsey, of West Dan
vile, better known here as Little
Marion" seemed to have been MAX
I ing good use of his time Sunday
/ evening. Our sympathies are with
you, Clint, but we can't reach you.
p The music school, under the in-
i struction of Prof. II. j. Berry, is
= we'll attended. There is nothing
y that speaks more for a church and
: community than good music, and
the work should be encouraged.
u It was observed last Wednesday
~ ~ morning that Mr.. Frank Berry was
~ wearing rather an unusual smile on
~ his face "and his countenance was
II II changed" When asked to explain,
- =. he could only exclaim; My son
- My son!"
- Cut-WOrms are very numerous Ia
oS this section, and the damage done
y by them to growing crops has been
r enormous. Mr.. A. H. Hassell re-
u ports having captured Ia about one
n ~ hill of corn. AT this rate a field
u. containing 10acres would be inhab-
10 ! tied by 353, $50 Of these destructive
,o ~ pests.
y Hugh Arnold, who wassentenced
. one year to the penitentiary last
August, and who made his escape
nd from the guards sometime ago, was
'ee, captured by Robert Redick, Horace
ST. Lowry and others Thursday even.
ar inc of last week near Point Mason
~ 1t seems that Arnold, for whose
sc capture a reward was offered, had
y, been located Thursday. A short
~ time after nightfall the posse went
Is to effect his capture, and while con.
q sulting as TO how to proceed so az
n to secure their man, he passed neal
g, them. When halted Arnold faileC
es to heed the command, but took tc
re his heels. Seeing that he was go
III ing to escape, the posse opened fire
IN from a distance Of about 20 yards
est one shot taking effect in the left
knee, one in the left side and one
ar in the left side of his head, which
ne brought him to a halt. Arnold wal
nd carried to Big Sandy and turned
A. over to Special Deputy Sheriff A
lrt N. Lindsey, who lodged him in jai
I'M at Camden. Our citizens are no
asst at all disposed to uphold such char
1m acters, but on the other hand the.
he have some respect for suffering hu
1tf manity.
