the opinion long entertained by Mr..
Hawthorne's admirers that his great
popularity is due to the merit of his
works and not to family or literary
friendships.

AS Auditor l.. p. Epton, and his clerk, Ed.
Brockman, were returning to town from their
assessing appointment, Saturday afternoon.
their horse became frightened at the smoke OF
a passing engine, or at something else near
the railroad crossing the Howard Gan
road two miles above town. Mr.. Brockman
jumped from the buggy without receiving auy
serious Injury. His face and nose were scratch =
ed considerably. Mr.. Epton in his efforts To
check the horse was thrown violently over TN q
dashboard and his head struck the vehicle or
ground rendering him unconscious for about
an hour. Several doctors soon were on hand
and after he recovered he was brought to his
home. Where he fell and lay for some time he
bled considerably. The greatest injury seem
ed to be In the head. About ten years a 90 Mr.
Epton lost his arm in a thrasher. One year
ago, the first OF January. his brother. in law,
Thomas, was killed by his horse running awav,
