Capt. Joe Hale Dead. |


Capt. Joseph L. Hale died last Sun
day afternoon at his home in this city,
His death came as surprise to the
citizens generally, as it was not known
that he was in bad health except to a
few intimate friends. For some months
this old landmark has been sufferer
from q combination Of heart disease
and dropsy and has been quite feeble,
and his death was not unlocked for by
his neighbors. He was about 70 years
of age and had lived in johnson City
all his life and was one of the best
known men in the county, and was
liked by everyone who knew him. He
has gone to that happy hunting ground
where the yelp of his favorite hounds
will not disturb his peaceful sleep. The
funeral occurred Monday and was
largely attended. May he rest in
peace.

MASQUERADE Ball.

The Carnival closed Tuesday night
in a blaze of glory, A fancy dress mas
querade ball was given at the Opera
House. All the seats were occupied by
the good people of the city and society
young folks furnished the amusement.
The costumes were modern and ele-
CANT but we have been unable to get a
description of the costumes. The mu-
sic was furnished by the Greeneville
band orchestra and was perfect, and the
dancers tipped the light fantastic in a
graceful dreamy manner.

Concert and Cake Walk.

Last Thursday evening johnson City
people were given q rare treat at the
opera house. The orchestra of the
Greeneville Military Band gave con-
cert, and it was one of the most de-
lightful musical entertainments the
city has enjoyed for long time. The
grand climax was niger cake walk
by the society gentlemen Of the city.
There were six couples, six of the
young men being attired as females.
The gentlemen were; Robt. Martin,
Horace Miller, Lit Wood, Sam Carr,
Tom kirkpatrick, Cy H, Lyle; the
girls were Harry Gump, Sam Millard,
Oscar Miller, John Wood, Frank Mil
Ter, Chas. Cargille. The committee
was composed of II. P. Wyman, DIR.
Sproles and NJ. H. Bachman, and after
mature deliberation they selected Robt.
Martin and Miss Harry Gump. The
cake was a very large one of the cara
mel variety and was as good as it
looked. 1t was baked for the occasion
by Miss Annie Miller. The walkers
and their friends enjoyed the cake
with an ice cream accompaniment at
Horace Miller's drug store.
