tertained some friends in her usual
generous manner during the holidays,
while Mr.. and Mrs. Wexler gave a
grand dinner to select number of invit-
ed guests. Mrs. Wexler presided over
the table with her usual grace and dig
nifty, and all were delighted. Mrs. Je-
rome Vincent gave a supper and social
to a number of young people recently.
Mrs. Vincent knows exactly how to en-
terrain young people, and no gathering

CROORSHANKS.

Winter seems to be doing what the
lrishman wanted the hen to do when
he set her upon six dozen eggs. Recent
failures-Ed Diehl busted in the rabbit
business, JAS. Watkins set out his mus
tache, and several of our pedagogues
failed to be County Superintendent. 1t
appears almost useless for teachers to
prepare themselves for the school work:
for, when there is q piece of pie with
sugar on it, the scribes and wise men
of the court hand it out to some doctor,
lawyer, preacher, dry goods clerk, or
something else. Sam Blair, of near
Embreeville, is visiting the people of
the community; he once taught school
at Fair View. The Fair View school,
Notwithstanding the rough weather,
has q good attendance. The toughest
days found about fifty present. Some
ride and bring their children horse
back. Where there's a will, there's a
way. Miss May CARRIER is unable to be
in school on account of rheumatism.
P. Quinn, of Cherokee, visited his son,
Robert and family recently. Messrs.
White and Martin passed through this
place, a few day since, with a lot of
mules. Very frequently, we see some
one pass from Jonesboro, who has been
where he had no business. Some of
them have no mind either; so it is inn
possible for them to mind their business.
j. d. Watkins, of Harmony, spent a
short time with his brothers and sisters
at this place recently. Marion Miller
is the champion cob pipe smoker in
these parts. Gen. Mathes, the great
rabbit hunter, wants to furnish cord
wood for his neighborhood during the
cold weather. A p%rotracted meeting
began at New Hope Sunday. A meet
ing is progress at Pleasant Valley. Rev.
j. P. Doggett breaches at Leesburg the
First and the Fourth Sunday in each

JOHN j. INGALLS,.

Tho friends Of good Government
throughout the country have their eyes
upon the Legislature of Kansas who
have a responsible duty to perform so
far as the selection of a successor to
Senator Martin is concerned. The Re-
publican heart of the Nation would re.
joice at the return of John j. Ingalls, to
the seat he has so co%nspicuously filled
for eighteen years. The years of mis-
representation of that glorious State
since its representation by ingalls, and
Plumb has fully realized to her people
the misfortune that attended and fol.
lowed the retirement of Mr.. Ingalls,,
both to the material interests of Kan
sas and the country as we'll. Such be-
ing the cause, the proposition of his re-
turn to the Senate now naturally
awakens anxiety and nce in the
breasts Of all friends of good Govern
ment.
While in the Senate, in point of
ability or influence, he had no super
ior, and few, If any equals. His po-
litical sagacity, keen, quick perception
were acknowledged by all. Through a
long and distinguished varied public
career he was a prominent factor in
the national affairs of American poll
tics, made 80 by his incisive views and
pronounced convictions, impressed up
on his Senatorial associates, always
shining in the Senate as a brilliant
luminary in the Senatorial sky, grow
ing continually brighter as he advanced
to his meridian.
Tennessee, in common with the
country at large, mourns the absence
of the ex-senator from the Senate now,
while the proposition is before Con-
gress to appropriate two hundred thou
sand dollars to enable the Government
to make an exhibit at the Centennial
Exposition next year, when her Legis-
lature is today criminally considering
another proposition-nothing less than
action multiplying a lawful election of a
Governor of the State, declared elected
by thousands of intelligent, honorable,
law abiding Democratic citizens in.
GLIDING many influential Democratic
newspapers. Would to God Ingalls,

ford q delicious treat to witness the
exercise Of his logical faculty, singu-
larly acute, in seizing the thieving
proposition to steal the Office Of Cover.
mol from H. Clay Evans, and remorse-
ly carrying it to its logical conclusion
and demonstrating the absurdity and
crime involved in the proposition by
the Legislature.

In California the Republicans con-
troll the Legislature and have on their
hands q contest for Governor, similar
to ours, with the Democratic candidate
elected or the face of the returns. The
Legislature met in joint session, count.
ed the votes and declared Mr.. Budd,
Democrat, elected. The contest will
now be made by Mr.. Estee, Republi-
can. Why the Democrats in this State
with a majority in each House, should
refuse to obey the constitution and de-
clare Mr.. Evans elected, is beyond
comprehension. Having faith in the
people we believe this great wrong
will be rebuked and its preparation
condemned by thousands of the best
men in their own party.

Chattanooga, Jan. 12.-The Grand
Jury of Marion County has indicted
Sheriff j. r. Jones for allowing two
women to come into the cells of General
and John Kennedy before they were
executed for murder. 1t is charged
that the visit was for immoral pur-
poses.
Chattanooga, January 12.-Dr. Gu.
Church, brother of ex.Representative
Church, of Catoosa County, Ca, died
today from injuries received yesterday
by being thrown from a horse.
w. B. C%heatham, a prominent farmer
who lives six miles from the city on
the Harding turnpike, shot and killed
A. G. King, his dairyman, at 8 O'Clock
Tuesday afternoon.
GAINESVILLE, January 10.-At Sharon
Grove, Todd County, KY, Prince Lyon
shot at Emmett Shamwell during q diff
ficulty. The bullet from Lyons pistol
struck a pen knife in Sham wells
pocket, and this saved the life of the
latter. Lyon is out on bond.
GAINESVILLE, Jan. 10.-Rey. John N.
Weddell, the noted Southern educator
and Presbyterian divine, died in Biz
mingham, Ala, yesterday. He was
the first Chancellor of the Southwestern
Presbyterian University here, and held
the position until about five years ago.
He was 83 years old.
Wartrace, Jan. 9.-The remains of
Arthur Grubbs, son of j. +. Grubbs, of
this place, arrived here today from
Chicago. Deceased was a conductor
on the Illinois & Michigan railroad and
met his death in coupling cars in the
yard at Chicago. A coupling pin flew
out and struck him on the thigh, sever
ing the femoral artery. He was not
found until he had nearly bled to death.
GAINESVILLE, Jan. 10.-Wm. Durham,
charged with poisoning Sam Price, q
negro farm hand by giving him strych-
nine in a drink of whisky, has been de.
clared not guilty by the Criminal Court
jury.
Memphis, Jan. 12.-On the day he
was acquitted for completely in the
Kerrville lynching Detective w. s.
Richardson boosted that he would be.
gin detecting at once. Next day he
pointed out two alleged escaped con-
victs to Sheriff McCarver. McCarver
arrested them and took them to Mississ-
ippi. Neither man was q convict, and
today John Cannon, one of the pair,
sued McCarver for 500 The other
man will sue for the same amountnext
week.
Columbia, January 9.-The killing of
Lewis Gotham in this city night before
last is still shrouded in mystery. The
officers are working diligently for
further evidence, but are keeping their
own counsel. All of the parties arrested
in connection with the crime have been
released except Ed Ferguson, the cyl
dence against whom was considered
sufficiently strong by the Coroner's
Jury to justify them in sending him to
Jail. The remains of Gotham were
taken to his home in Williamson
County yesterday, where they will be
inferred today. The Coroner's Jury is
still in session and will probably not
render their verdict before tomorrow.

WHEN thu Herald and Tribune a year
ago said the administration of Cover
mol Buchanan had been made respec.
table in comparison with the admins
tration Of Governor Turney, some peo-
pie questioned the correctness of the

has not only made our declaration

have suffered crucifxion before going

late the holding Of primary elections,
If a law Of this kind is passed, under
which the people and not a few self
constituted bosses can dictate the
choice of candidates for their respec.
tive parties, we shall certainly give the

effective and permit the people to con.
troll the result, the candidate receiving
the highest number Of votes must be
declared the nominee, without n
subsequent deals and combination
among a multiplicity of candidates
who enter a contest for the express

The weather at the present is very
severe, but fear worse is yet to come.
How delightful to look out over old
mother earth as she is wrapped in her
mantle of white, and to gaze upon the
beautiful trees as they were covered a
few days ago. Mr.. B. and Miss Amanda
Strychler are very low with typhoid
fever. Jacob johnson is some better
at the present, but his father is sinking
fast, quite a number of friends have
been by his side several days thinking
that every breath would be the last.
David Kitzmiller has been on the sick
list for some time, but his many friends
are glad to know he is improving. Mr..
Kitzmiller is ninety six years old and
bids fair to see 100 years. Mr.. Cannon,
representing Shields Brothers, spent
Tuesday night with our merchant, F.
w. DeVault. Rev. j. Moore preached
at Fordtown last Sunday and at Buffalo
Ridge at night. Mr.. Moore is an able
preacher and the people are glad that
he has agreed to serve as pastor at the
former place, and also glad that he will
occasionally preach at Ruffalo Ridge.
Spears Webster, travelling salesman for
Mitchell, Powers & Co., of Bristol, was
in our city last week talking hardware.
Arch s. Hall and Will MAIDEN, started
to johnson City Saturday, but after
going some four or five miles concluded
the snow storm was too severe and re-
turned to their homes. Fuller Burris,
the dandy mail boy, says sitting by a

it is 80 cold that he can't ever see his

The school at Cedar Creek Academy
was suspended last week on account of
the bad weather. Married-John Fox
and Mrs. Jones on last Friday. The
bride was q widow lady of about forty
five or fifty years, and the groom was a
young man Of about twenty five years.
The little bald headed bachelor says
there is no use of getting discouraged
for maybe his time will come in ''The
Sweet Bye and Bye" F. w. DeVault
recently shaved off his beard, which
changed the looks of him very much,
and it is said he went to the store and
bought a bill of goods of his daughter
before she recognized him as being her
father, P. 81. Boring, of this place, has
gone to Knoxville to attend Federal

has been the guest OF his brother, Alex.
Tapp. of this place. On Thursday even
ing, January 10, N. L. Beard, of Dallas,
Texas, and Miss Gibson, of Washington
County, were happily united. Mr..
Beard came to Tennessee about one
week ago as was thought to visit his
home folks, but guess it was to get him
a wife. He says he would not give one
Tennessee girl for six Texas girls. The
bride and groom spent Friday night
and Saturday at P. H. Boring's, en-
route to his brother in laws, John
Woods, where a reception was given
Saturday evening. The happy couple
