FROM JACKSON COUNTY.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
noticed a letter from our County
President, Bro. A. J. Long, Sr ,
from near Webster, jackson County,
N. OF in which he said, "Our County
Secretary promised to write you in
regard to our meeting held in October,
but I have concluded that he has neg
lected to do so, as 1 have not noticed
it in your paper, etc" l wrote you
the particulars Of our October meet
ing, etc, and it was published. as I saw
it and read it myself, as did all your
subscribers. But my dear brother
failed to get the letter in the Sample
Capies" sent him. If he will become
a regular subscriber (Which he ought
to do) and see all the papers, he will
not be again mistaken, and will know
more about the general workings of
the Alliance hereafter
Our Alliance in this county is begin
ming to gain ground and I hope the
time is not far in the future when we
will have a County Alliance in Jack
son County that we will all be proud to
give an account of to the public, gen
orally. Our farmers are now in better
circumstances financial, etc than
they were several years ago, as they
have all learned by experience that it
is better to make their own bacon than
to buy it from Illinois; and also better
to make their -four than to depend IN
Tennessee for it, and much better to
make their own corn than buy from
Indiana. And, in fact, are 10 com
ing nearer to living on their own hog
and hominy" than for many years.
OF course it hurts the railroads, but it
makes the farmer.
Our next County meeting will be held
at Loves Chapel on the second Thurs
day in January next. Let all Subs
come up we'll represented, etc with a
good financial report.
With best wishes always for The
PROGRESSIVE FARMER, I am,
Yours very truly,

At n State University several stu
dents have, we learn, been recently ex
PEELED for hez,ng, and THE PROGRESS
sIvE FARMER thinks this is buG just.
In some instances, however, the school
authorities do not find it necessary to
take a hand in Furnishing those engaged
in he z:ng. One such instance is re-
ported in a New York paper, the World,
we believe.
1t wasat Dartmouth and a half dozen
or so Of sophomores assembled in the
room Of one of the most innocent and
harmless appearing men Of the fresh
man class. He was very tall, pale and
soft looking" He had been @ at
tending the meetings of the Young
Mems Cnristian Association, and it was
decided to smoke him out.
AS the sophomores entered the room
they turned the key on the inside, but
neglected to take it from the lock.
They nailed boards over the windows.
and put everything in snug shape. The
freshman backed toward the door, not
knowing what to think of the actions
of his company. He cleaned against the
panels with his hands behind his back.
Soon he was made to stand on q box in
the centre OF the room.
The air became denser and hotter.
Clouds of smoke rolled upward. The
man next you could not be SEEM The
smoke could almost be cut into bars
and cakes. The sophomores pulled in
silence.
Presently from one corner came a
noise as Of a man in distress. A try
was made at the door. IL was locked.
Now from different parts of the room
came strange sounds. A rush was
made for the door. The kew had dis
appeared. The windows were boarded.
There was no exit for the sophomores.
who were in severe distress. Almost
the only composed individual was the
freshman
He had descended from his position,
and was seated in his chair puff 1g an
old corncob pipe. A hunt was made
for the key by those who we're still
we'll enough, and it was finally found
where the freshman had thrown it
when he had his back against the door.

One of the worst kings that reigned
over judah was Manasseh, who reared
up altars for Baalim, and made graves

and served them. And he built affairs
for all the host of heaven in the two
courts OF the house of the Lord. And
he caused his children to pass through
the fire IN the valley Of the son of Hin
nom; also, he observed times, and used
entertainments, and dealt with a famil
lar spirit, and with Wizards; he
wrought much evil in the sight of the
Lord, to move him to anger. And he
set a carved image, the idol which he
had made, in the house of God. In

Of the grove"
wilkinson, on opening (n 1920 one
OF the tombs Of Q )ornet MurrRu, at
Thebes, wherein was written the name
of the elder brother of Amunoph Ill,
found the following picture:
The king is seated on his throne,
within a richly ornamented canopy,
attended by a fan bearer, whoa also holds
his sceptre; a procession advances in
four lines, the lowest is of Egyptians
of the sacerdotal and military classes,
some ladies of consequence, and young
people bringing bCquets and boughs Of
trees. Taey have just entered the
gates Of the royal court and are pre-
coded by a scribe and others of the
priestly order, who do obesiance be-
fore the deputy of his majesty, ss he
stands to receive them. In the second
line black Chiefs of Oush or Ethiopia
bring presents Of gold rings, copper
skins, fans or umbrellas of Gather work,
and an OK bearing on its horns an arti
fetal garden, and a lake of fish. This
eff ring will appear Iess singular when
we think of our flower pots and vases
Of gold and silver fish, which last is not
more incomprehensible to the modern
Egyptian than the above mentionedlake
may seem to US. The garden, indeed,
may have been of artificial flowers,
which were known to the Egyptians.

A GREAT FAKE EXPLODED.

A great fake was exploded at Ander-
SOD, Ind the other day when John
Shipley was convicted of robbery and
sentenced TO one years imprisonment.
When Shipley was arrested he appear
ed to be deaf aud dumb, and did not
utter a sound during the fight he had
with the officers who arrested him be-
fore they subdued him. When his
case came to trial he appealed TO tne
local EpWorth League to help him, a
deaf and dumb man who was falsely
accused. The league did so. At the
trial Shipley gave his testimony in
writing. Never was there so deaf a
man before the Circuit Court before;
never one &c dumb. Up to the time
the jury brought in their verdict, re-
commencing the prisoner to the mer-
cy Of the court because Of his Gm CT
ton, Shipley betrayed himself,
playing his part perfectly the whole
time, nearly a month. When sen
te8ce was pronounced and had
been handed to him in writing, he read
it smiled, and IN the care of the officers
lett the court room When he reached
the outside air, he opened his mouth
and in a half dozen languages, swore
at everyone in sight. as a relief, as it
were, to his pent.up feelings for thirty
DAYS.

The reason kissing is pleasant, says
an osculatory expert Of scientific ten
dencies, is because the teeth, jaw
bones and lips are full Of nerves, and
when the lips Of persons meet an
electric current is generated and you
don't have 10 have dynamo machine
nor a battery in the house, nor call
box, nor button to touch to ring up
central Office, and there is no patent on
it, and the poorest person in the world
can enjoy the electric current better
than the millionaire, and it never gets
out Of order. II Edison had invented
kissing 1t would cost 500 year, like
the telephone, and then extra kissing
would be charged up extra, and if you
didn't pay for 1t they would take out
your kisssphone and disconnect you

because wheat has advanced in price,
it is all foolishness. as far as the cotton

TRAGEDY IN THE KLONDYKE.
From the Dawson City Times.1

From the Dawson City Times.l
There was hot time in the old towI
last night, as the frequenters of TIE
Dirty Dog Saloon will testify.
In the course OF a quiet little poker
game there was a clash between Bo
nanza Bill, formerly Of Circle City, and
a half-breed Indian known in the dig
gings as Chilkoot Charley.
The stakes we're large. Over twC
million dollars in nuggets glittered or
the table when all players dropped ou1
excepting Bill and Charley.
Charley finally weakened and called
his antagonist.
Bonanza Bill proudly displayed q
pair OF fours.

to rake 10 the shining pot, i've gol
sevens.''
''Stop!" roared Bonanza. and with a
quick movement he seized the cards
from Chilkoot Charley's hand.
Charley had pair OF deuces only.
PiQued at the idea OF being played
for good thing by a half.breed Indian
Bonanza Bill lost his temper and
seizing a cast iron cuspidor, he brough'
it down upon Charley head with grea'
emphasis. Skull and spit box were
both wrecked by the force OF the COLI
sion.
The Indian was buried in snow
bank at the foot of Easy street at 2.3t
a. m.
The affair is deeply regretted by oul
best citizens. Seldom has a similar
tragedy cast such II gloom over oul
community. A cuspidor OF the kinC
that vas ruined last night is rare
article of bric-a-brac in this section
and cannot be replaced except by lav-
ish outlay of money.

Dirty Dog establishment, is prostratet
