A reporter heard a business man
relate yesterday how it was discover
ed that DAVIS, the phenomenal Blount
county pitcher, had such "throwing'
power. A party Of old base ball
players were hunting squirrels in the
woods of Blount, near Davis home.
Notwithstanding they had improved
patterns of shot guns they had met
with poor results. They met young
man who proved to be Davis, lugg-
ing home big bunch Of squirrels.
''Where's your gun?' inquired one of
town sports. Il haven't any, just
knocked them over with stones" re-
piled. Davis. 1t occurred that a fel-
low who could throw like that might
have good stuff in him for a base ball
pitcher. The results are familiar to
the public. Knoxville Journal.
Last week the TINES announced
that ID. l.. Bryan had been appointed
back tax attorney for this county.
He did receive word that he had Sc
cured the appointment, and for him
to make his bond this he did and SEN
it off the same day and in day or so
telegram came saying it was a mis-
take that 1t should have been sent to
Bryan in Granger county. Now
Hon. Chas. T. Gates, Sr. has received
commission appointing him, bu
Mr.. Bryan thinks the talk about the
Granger county business is just an
excuse for "ousting" him and he says
, he means to fight for his rights and
says that we can announce that he
will be back tax attorney tor Blount
County. Mr.. Gates says it was SIM
ply mistake, as the telegram said, as
that is what Harris wrote him. Eth
er Of these gentlemen would make an
efficient officer and the TINES has no
finger in the fight except to give the
news as we heard it from both sides.

NAVAL RESERVE PROGRESS.
The Question OF a Cruise This Year
Not Yet Settled.

Captain William H. Jaques, of the New
Jersey Naval Reserve. has returned from
Europe, and it will very soon be made
known to the members whether they are
to go on a cruise this year or not. Upon
that question the latest general orders
shed no light. although they announce
that the several divisions of the Naval
Reserve will report at Sea Grit Camp
for rifle practice OF September 8, 10, II,
II and 10. If all the divisions are to be
there on all of those days there will be
no cruise. This matter will probably be
made plain in Hoboken on Monday night.
The Board of Officers of the Battalion
of the East will hold a meeting next
Monday night on board the Portsmouth.
at which arrangements will be made for
the naval ceremony attending the formal
putting of the ship into commission.
The officers will have their uniforms by
Monday night, but the bids for the sea-
yet unopened. All will be made before
the trip to Sea Girt.
Boat drills continue to be held on the
Passaic River o. Tuesday, Wednesday,

covery. Ten years ago. an old woman,
who purported to be a fortune teller.
told Fasick that a buried treasure await

cure it was a good spade and a brave
heart.
The matter was almost forgotten by
Fasick until a few weeks ago. when be
dreamed of a little white house and barn
along the creek. and on a line with the
building and the creek he saw a clump
of bushes surrounding a small mound.
which was covered by a stone slab four
feet wide and six feet long. On the slab

the next night and again on the third.
The dream was almost forgotten. he
ven cunning along the creek yesterday,

little white house and barn. and in the
distance was the clump o. bushes. Has
tening to it he was amazed to see the
1t was the same size as the slab of his
dream and all the details were perfect.
The stone was too deeply embedded in
the earth for Fasick to move single
handed.
He believes that there is a mystery
beneath the slab and with the help of
others he will investigate it.. Fasick is

Church.

not the slightest doubt but an award
would have been made either to the
East Jersey Water Company or to the

interfered. 1t is equally certain that the
award would nave had the concurrence
of a majority of the Finance Commits

who had been in favor of concurring in
a contract, and strengthened the two
strong members, who, however Their
position may be broadened by qualifying
u~rterances, are still practically opposed
to any contract at this time.
We congratulate the Journal on the
consummate success of its undertaking.
It is seldom that a newspaper so com
at which it aims. The catastrophe which
is upon us is a remarkable triumph of
wanton, perverse, malignant error. con-
centrated with baleful energy on a ma
licious purpose. and backed up with
power used without conscience or scru-

We wish the journal" joy of the pop

strictly in accord with all its history of
