CREAM OF NEWS.
If 1T IS NEW AND TRUE THIS COLUMN
HAS IT.
Up to Date News From Trigg, Todd and
Other Counties. as Well as Many Choit 9
Items from Christian
TO The Members OF the Press

The following is proposed as pro-
gram for the next meeting of the X.
p. A., and the executive committee
will shortly be called together to cen
slider the matter and announce
its conclusion:
Monday Sept. 23-Meet in Hop
kinsville. Business meeting for adj
dress of welcome aud enrolment of
members at 2 pm. Citizens recep-
ton at Hotel Latham to II p. m.
Tuesday Sept. 24-Visit points of
interest in and about the city, with a
business session some time during
the day. Banquet and ball at night.
Wednesday Sept. 25-Leave by
special train for Atlanta Exposition.
Arrive at Chattanooga for dinner,
visit Lookout Mountain in the after
noon. Arrive at Atlanta at night or
following morning.
Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
Sept. 26, n and %, will be devoted
to sightseeing. Return home Sunday.
Enough is already known to make
1T certain that all necessary arrange
ments can be made. The railroads
have offered to extend the usual
courtesies and Secretary Gaines has
information that the Association will
be invited in a body by the manage
ment of the Exposition About Oct.
LIST was suggested as suitable time.
The reason for selecting the last week
in September is that several large
fairs will be held the first week in
October and all cities will be holding
their annual registration of voters
and would not be convenient for ma
ny of the members who dabble in
politics to be away at that time. The
date comes in after the Louisville G..
A. r. encampment and seems
to be about the best that
could be selected, all things consid-
cred.

WINDING UP OF THE TERM OF CIR
CUT COURT.
Several Cases win be Appealed, Among
Them theMajor- BarkerCase that Took up
A good Part of this Week.

Only few of the 46 divorce cases
were passed upon this term. One
was dismissed and four or FIVE di-
vorces granted. The rest viii come
up at subsequent terms For the in
formation of those not familiar with
the names recently published, it is
proper to add that nearly all of the
dissatisfied couples are colored.
The contested election case of
Major VS.. Barker was decided We'd
nesday in flvor Esq. Barker, the pres
ent incumbent. Mr.. Major will ap-
peal the case to the higher court.
The contested election case of
Robinson VS. Hanbery, for the city
judgeship, was continued until the
June term.
The court on Monday appointed
Messrs. Geo. Bradley, D. r. Perry

Fiscal Court in session.

The fiscal court has been in session
since Tuesday, but no important bus
mess has been transacted, except the
action on the workhouse matter. The
city pays one fifth of the expense of
the workhouse and passed an ordi-
nance demanding a vote in the cleo
ton of a keeper. The county refused
this request and produced the records
showing that the right of the city to
help elect had been destroyed by
erasing five words Of the contract.
This erasure is explained by members
of both the county court and the city
council at the time the contract was.
made who say that the council refused
to accept that provision and that it was
Q as ed by Deputy Clerk, H.W. Breath
ut in the pr sence of representatives
of both bodies before the contract was
signed and after the record had been
copied into the city record book. The
county now refuses to let the city
have any voice in the election of a,
keeper, and it may result in the dis
solution of the partnership.
The court had up the petition of
various colored people to be put ON
the pauper list at $50 year, yester-
day, and most of their petitions were
granted. The bridge question was,
then taken up later in the day.
There is said be some doubt as to-
whether the present court will elect
county officials this time, as the old
court held an election only last Octo,

A Heroine Dead,

bearer of important dispatches from
the Confederate minister to France to
Richmond, Va, in October, 1861. She

MERCER BICYCLE PARK.
A Park to be Opened on the Nj, acer Prop
ertY ON seventh Street

Mr.. S. G. Mercer has decided to
convert the former Glass property on
West Seventh street, in the rear of
the Tabernacle and extending south
to the river, into a pleasure park,
which is destined to become a popu-
lar resort, since it is in the heart of
the city and not more than two
squares from Main street. The lot
contains ten acres and one of the
Improvements now under Roadway
will be the erection of grand stand
overlooking bicycle track one-third
of a mile around.
In the grand stand will be proyid-
ed ladies reception and cloak reems,
and comfortable arrangements for
seating large crowds. The seats will
be well shaded and protected from
the sun, strong and well arranged.
An artificial lake will be dug in the
west end of the park and shade trees
will be planted wherever they are
needed.
The entrance to the park will be
on Seventh street, near the Taberna-
Gle, only few steps from the busiest
thoroughfare of the city. The park
will be within fifty yards of the street
and will be surrounded by row of
fine residences on the north, by the
river on the east and south and by
well improved property on the west.
Altogether the surrounding will be of
the most desirable character.
The park will be opened at the APP
preaching meeting of the Grand Ar
my of the Republic in this city, with
grand bicycle contest, which will be
a novel spectacle to the crowd and
will be hailed with delight by our
hundreds of wheelmen.
We have not learned what the park
will be called, but the most appropri-
ate name would be that of its public
spirited protector.

Narrowing Tale From "Horseville, :"

Somebody imposed the following
April Fool tale on the Greensboro
Inquirer: Responsible parties liv-
ing near "Pinchecoe," Hancock coun-
ty, tell of a terrible state of affairs ex-
listing among the poor class of peo-
pie between Victoria and Roseville.
They saw that starvation is staring
the inhabitants in the face
and that many families are actually
suffering. They have eaten up all
they raised last summer and have
borrowed from each other until every
cornbin is emptied and every meat
house cleaned out. 1t is said to be
worse among the negro families who
reside in that part of the county. II
is related as fact and vouched fol-
by the citizens around that one Sam
Pool, of color, who used to lived here,
became so hard up for food that he
slaughtered his pony and the family
is now eating horse meat.
