Since that time work has been almost
continuous and Of substantial character.
Recently however. it has been :ufnore
that Mr.. Lanes representatives were dis
appointed in the property, ana that not

the prcperty would be abandoned. This

specIal DO the Evening Journal.

Smyrna, July PA young man
known as Tom, living with William
Holland on the Goldsborough farm,
near town, attracted considerable at
tention here yesterday by his screams
and yells. He is subject to the cramps.
and while in Smyrna on an errand he
had a severe attack. He went to Cliff
ton d RaymOnd's drug store where it
required the services OF three men to
hold him. Many persons thought Dr.
Clifton was performing an operation
Tom was finally quieted with ether. and
late in the day was able to go home
DR.. Clifton, of late, has been called
to attend him. Tom is
known by his friends as the Ostrich
man." He is an excellent workman, but
has little idea of what to eat having
been known to consume a dozen new
potatoes, as many cucumbers, and to
drink over a quart of water at a meal.
Last Friday when Dr. Clifton visited
the Holland farm. he found Tom drawn
up into a knot, and, to all appearances.
dead. That day IL took two hours to
bring him around.

bombs, colored FIRE. and set pieces. The

of the display was the arrangement by
which fireworks were set off on all
parts Of the lake. The explosives We're
supported on blocks and floats.

selections His renditions were ap-
preciated.

ated the new Springograph Some CT the
