EIGHTH DISTRICT.

We are having lots of rain now,
much delaying the farmers in their
work. The late frost injured corn to a
great extent; so much that some have
plowed up their fields again and re-
planted. Now if it continues wet much
longer, keeping farmers out of their
corn, the crop will be short this season.
The Eighth District can now boast of
having three stores within her borders;
but no ~calaboose nor saloons. James
Leonard, who is a merchant of johnson
City, has moved a branch of his store
out on Cherokee in a house belonging
to d. B. Huffine. Mr.. Hufine built the
house a few years ago intending to sell
goods himself, but had never done 30.
This is on the main road leading from
Embreeville to johnson City, and about
five miles from town, with Chas. Bur-
ris as clerk, We can speak a good trade
for the store. Rev. A. j. Vines bap-
tized three persons near Bells school
house Sun day morning. Don't forget
Decoration Day at Union. We are
pleased to welcome Misses Lutte and
Mollie Persinger back with us again.
They have been in school at Athens
the past year; we are glad they have
returned as they always brighten the
circle around which they make one of
the number. John Vines and Robert
Hufine spent Saturday night with the
family of Mr.. Burleson-calico the at.

her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. W. L. Vines,
a few days last week. Will Henson

Walter, who is getting very old and
feeble, is spending a few weeks with
her daughter, Mrs. ]. w. Dulaney.
Robert Huffine, who has been in the
Jonesboro Graded School for the past
eight months, has again pitched his
camp with home folks. He tells us he
won a medal but he did not bring it
home him-guess a Martin flew away
with it. John and David Vines are
spending vacation at home. John

of water, 80 he went to Jonesboro Sun

A Pleasant Trip.

Mr.. and Mrs. John s. Mathes made a
little trip down the road last week to
Knoxville and Chattanooga, and visit
ed the historic battlefield of Missionary
Ridge and the National Cemetery. Then
in company with Mr.. and Mrs David
Wright, of Dunkirk, New York, they
took in the Chickamauga Park and bat
tleheld. The afternoon was perfect
and in a handsome rig behind a spir-
tied team with a careful driver the
drive over the national pike from the
city to the battlefield was a most de.
lightful one. Passing the old timey
house, at Rossville, once the home of
John Ross, the celebrated Indian Chief,
you soon come to Battery Hill where
Thomas planted his cannon to defend
the Rossville gap, then, scattered all
along the road to the park, you see
tablets, reciting the important events
that occurred there in September 1920,
1858. Soon you come to the celebrated
Snodgrass Hill, a winding road brings
you to an old timey farm house on the
top where Snodgrass vas living at the
time of the battle, and where General
Thomas had his headquarters, Sunday
afternoon, September 90, 1858, under a
tree just across the road from the farm
house is where his tent was pitched,
and a little to the east on the brow of
the hill in an old field are three monu
ments, marking the sites, and telling OF
the heroic deeds of the brave Ohioians
that did 81 much brave fighting there
on that hot Sunday afternoon. Ale
shire's battery was there and lost a
number of men and nineteen horses.
All along the ridge, through the woods
to the west monuments are very thick
and plenty. IL was there the brave
General H. v. Boynton with troops
performed such deeds of valor. Down
the creek to the southeast is the widow
Glenn's where General Rosecrans had
his headquarters, and from where he
left the field and rode back to Chatta-
nooga, leaving General Thomas to do
the fighting and save the army from
utter route. Another pleasant feature
of the trip was an invitation of A. L.
Ross, of the Rosemore hotel to ride over
the city behind his fine team. Mr..
Ross is alive mar and believes in Chat
tanooga aud takes great pleasure in
showing his guests the important points
around the city; from which alone it
is possible to learn what q beautiful
city Chattanooga really is.

While / was out in the yard this
morning, sitting on top of a hen coop,
the thought struck me that our cores
pendent from this place seems rather
negligent of late. THE reason of it, l
suppose, is, Handy Andy is busy stick

goes a letter. A large number of our

wanted them delivered at Washington

Williamson is visiting his sister, Mrs.

LAST WILL Of JUDGE HOLT
The Instrument Faded and Partially
Burned,
But II Bears All the Ear-Marks Of Authen.
ITCHY ond the Chirography Has
Been Identified

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The wills of
the late justice Holt, who was Judge ad-
vocate general of the United States army
during the war, was filed today. The in
strument was witnessed twenty years ago
by Generals Grant and Sherman and Mrs.
Sherman. The estate, valued at between
5000, 900 and 5000, ,0O0, is left to Lizzie
Hayne a niece and John Throckm orton,
gran,lohid. Mr.. Holt was kentuckIan,
but for twenty-five years lived in this
city. He died here several months ago
leaving considerable property but no will
so far as the most diligent search could
discover. Arrangements were made ac-
cordingly for Its division among his near

portance of guarding the new candidate
from recapture by the heathen relatives,
who, the missionary is assured, would do
so TO prevent the perversion of the child s
faith.
As the missionary cannot talk to the
child he trusts his interpreter who can,
and the child-well, the less the original
is followed there the better. The inter-
prefer practically gets the girl. She is his
slave for the time being. and he plays
the missionary TO keep safely out of sight
until he ran sell her and get the money
for her. Then the missionary IS fooled
again. and tho process is repeated as
frequently as possible. 1t is a great in
dustry for the unscrupulous interpreters,
who live better, have more pleasure and
make more money with less work under
the protection of the mission than most
of the good people of their town.
The burning of the missions freed some
of the girl captives. who told the stories
of their kidnaping, confiement and the
indignities to which they were subjected.
The stories spread and aroused the feroc-
ity of all good peolle This started the
great riot and the mob attacked the mis-
sionaries and Interpreters indiscrimi-
nately.
The best people did not accuse the mis-.
slonaries of any intentional wrong and
would not have harmed them. intending
only to send them away. so they could
no longer be induced BY the wicked in
terpreters to help them in kidnapping de-
fenseless young girls. All agreed 1t was
right to kill the hangers-on guilty of the
kidnapping, because il is the law and the
custom that anyone may do so in China.
The governor of Fokien sent 1000 soldiers
up the Min river to quell the rioters and
restore order, but the bandits joined with
the rabble and whipped the soldiers. The
soldiers lost half their number and had to
retreat.
AT the time the paper was printed it
was said the whole section was in con-
troll of the mob and there was great fear
that elsewhere, when the people hear
OF the state of affairs ut kucheng there
Will be great trouble for the missionaries.
The foregoing is u free translation, not
literal. but much abbreviated and pre-
sents the Chinese view of the situation.

She Was Bad, Anyway

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 26.-Assistant
County Attorney Peterson admitted that
the evidence against Mrs. Perkins IN the
Hawkins murder case was thus ian err
tirely ciroumstantlal and that she would
not have been arrested yesterday II 1t
had not been for positive knowledge OF
her previous criminal career in Mime
apols. The police had before the first ac-
cidental tires investigated two shady
transactions. In the first well-known
citizen spent night with Mrs. Perkins,
only to find in the morning that ms
pockets had been rifed of valuables. The
police after investigation. forced MIS-:
Perkins to restore them. In the second
case a well-known man about town had
become involved with the two women.
Several checks with his signature forged
turned up at the bank. He was not in a
position to dispute the signature and
they were paid.
The state believes that Mrs. Hawkins
was slowly being poisoned and that the
fire was thought of to conceal evidence OF
