Mrs. HempIe Flatly Contradicts Stories
of Police Officers.
The trial OF Lena Hemple, indicted for
maintaining common nuisance at 1874
Fountain street, which was begun late
last evening, was continued this morn
ing. sevcrni potfce officers testified to
purchasing liquor at the house kept by
the defendant, to seeing disreputa Bile
people going in and out OF ii. and for
several distur Dances taking place in the
rooms of Mrs. Hempie, that seriously
interfered with the consideration of
plans for the capture of lawbreakers
at the nearby Central police station. The
Hemplc boarding house has been doing
business three years.
Mrs. hemple claimed she kept q re-
specta BILE boarding house, and that the
frequent visits to ber house by parties
that the police did not like, must have
been for the purchase of soap that one of
her roomer ~made her living by selling.
AS to Cinnamon being seen coming out
of her house, she said the only one that
ever visited her home was the one that
came for her laundry. Mrs. Hemple was
tried the other day on charge of selling
lager teer to two policemen, but she
claimed 1t was home e-brewec she sold the
policemen, and the jury disagreed.
Today she denied ever selling s1y liquor
OF sn intoxicating nature. Mrs. Hemple
got very mucn excited while giving her
testimony.

Three and four months ago column
after column of the Boston Commercial
Bulletin were devoted to the enumera-
tion OF industries discontin ued and mills
shut down while of in some corner
would be an isolated paragraph to the
effect that some reckless business man
had decided to take chances and stock
up. Now it is ~eversed. AS the Boston
Herald says it would save space now to
merely enumerate the manufacturing
plants which have not resumed operations
on full hours and with extra help.
Before election the paying teIiers of the
savings banks were the hardest worked
officials of those institutions. The money
all went one wsy, and throughput the
country there was a mania on the part of
those who had worked and saved TO
withdraw their deposits from the banks
and hoarS them at home.
Now It is the other way. The paving
teller can have a vacation ana the clerks
who receive the deposits and credit them
on the thousands of private rank books
neso extra help. The Withdrawals are
all csck and a good many more dollars
with them.

properly observed by the Sunday
School with the presentation of a
special program which was we'll di-

and citizens of Sequachee generally.
The church was prettily decorated

beautiful calla and other plants.
Back of the platform was the inscrip-
ton "Cbrist is rison" and during the
service on additional motto, "Jesus,
the Way to Heaven" was displayed.
The children, under the direction of
Mss Matilda sang prettily some
Easter songs. The little class of Mr.

April was the last day for depos-
iting the old securities of the Mem
phis q Charleston Railroad Company
toreceive the new issues as proposed
under the reorganization plan Of the
company.
The company has been in default
on its bonds for some time, and it is
now proposed to put the securities on
an interest paying basis and connect
the system with the Southern Rail
road. In doing 50 it is proposed to
issue $1,500,0OO 5 per cent. bonds for
the purpose of building a road from
Stevenson, Ala, to Chattanooga.
The Memphis q Charleston Railroad
Company operates $50 miles Of rail
road, consisting Of its main line from
Memphis to Stevenson, Ma, 272
miles, twenty miles of branches, and
thirty-eight miles of trackage over
the Nashville, Chattanooga q St.
Louis Railway from Stevenson to
Chattanooga, where its most import
ant connection is made with the syS-
tenn OF the Southern Railroad Com
pany, the principal stockholder Of the

For the use Of the line from Stew
e1son to Chattanooga the Memphis &
Charleston has for thirty years beeu
paying the Nashville, Chattanooga &

run through South Pittsburg will b'
Degun at once. The Reorganization

The Right Course.

We are frequently asked what
course the Gazette will pursue in pol
itics, to which we answer that we are
tt ying to publish paper neutral in
politics. This does not interfere with
our personal preference. Every one
acquainted with the proprietor of
the Gazette knows where he stands
in politics. We guarantee every one
freedom in this respect, and we re-
serve right in he same for ourseI-
YES. Our object in publishing the
Gazette is to be instrumental is build
ing up DucktOwn and Polk County,
and also encourage enterprise and
progress. We shall be satisfied if
we can accomplish anything tending
to the advancement of our common
country and the happiness of the
community,-Ducktown Gazette.
If more OF the country weeklies
would adopt a local course it would
be an excellent thing for all parties
concerned. The idea of a little
country weekly debating on Nation
al politics is absurd The Gazette
has adopted the right course-the
building up Of the town.
