To Serve an Oyster Cocktail.

Charles Ranhofer, the celebrated
chef of Delmonico's, declared until the
last days of his life that there was
nothing, absolutely nothing, new in
the culinary art; that no new dishes
had been invented in fifty years; that
the so-called new dishes were only old
ones revived. Although the oyster
cocktail was introduced in the chop
houses of New York about two years
before Mr. Ranhofer's death he never
included it in his list of dishes, and
as his book was published before oys-
ters were served in this way, he does
not mention the cocktail. Really, it is
only the fact of serving the oysters in
a glass which gives the name to GER

MONEY to Loan!

CERTAINTY OF CoNTRAcT.-The
loan plan here offered by The Fi>
deity is that Of paying off loan
by easy monthly payments. The
contract is definite and certain. BY
its terms it cannot run BEYOND the
time fixed, but stock participates in
earning and may mature sooner. IT
is NOT loan upon the building
loan plan as usually presented BY
associations. 1t differs from such
plan, in that
No fines are charged the borrower.
The maximum number of payments re.
quired to pay off is stipulated IN the note.
The sum required to pay off and cancel
loan, or any part of it, is stipulated in the
note for each period.
Certainty and a monthly payment plan
is an advantage to the borrower. Q) The
debt can be paid off before maturity with
out penalty. (2) The borrower by easy pay
ments gets out of debt. Straight loans for
term of years are too often renewed.
Three terms or payment are offered. 1t
takes small monthly payment longer to
cancel a debt than it does larger one.

TERRIFIC EXPLOSION.
Two Men Killed in an Accident at
Hohenwald.

Sundays American contained the
following:
The saw mill of the Davidson
Benedict Company, of this city, located
at Hohenwald. was wrecked yesterday
morning by terrific explosion of the
boiler. Walter Hollister the manager
was instantly killed; Arthur Paxton,
the foreman. fatally wounded; Ed
johnson seriously scalded, and Tom
Mason painfully injured.
The explosion Occurred at about II
O'Clock while work was temporarily
suspended for belt to be repaired.
Hollister;and Paxton were engaged,
when the explosion occurred, in work
ing on belt and were within a few
feet of the boiler. The former was
killed outright. The latter was blown
against planning machine and had
his skull very badly crushed. He was
brought to Nashville last night on the
train arriving at s go o'clock and car
rled to the infrmary of Drs. Eve. but
died few minutes after reaching here
without having ever regained con-
seriousness
Ed johnson was close behind the
boiler and was scalded very seriously
all over his body. He is in a very pre-
carious condition, but may live. Tom
Mason, another employee, was painfully
cut about the face and scalded and
burned slightly. but none of his wounds
are serious.
The explosion was heard for miles
around and pieces of the boiler and
brick and timber were hurled four and
five hundred feet. The entire saw
mill was badly wrecked, but can be
put back in working order by repairs
and the installing of new boiler.
The present proprietors of the mill
have owned the property only about
three weeks having bought it from
one OF the dead men and his brother
The boiler had probably not been
inspected for some time and might
have been in bad condition and unable
to Withstand the pressure, or it may
have been low water -
Both of the dead men had many
friends in Maury county, and Walter
Hollister. the manager, was a brother
ln-law of W. B. Turner, ESQ.,, of this
city.

The pews of Gen. jackson and Maj

had dec )rations of box, magnolia
boughs and jackson vine
Rev. Is. Fl. Franklin, pastor of the
church, and DR.. d. g. Kelley were
seated in the pulpit, and the latter
preached from the text Matthew 10 30
III. His sermon WAS an appropriate
and eloquent effort, founded on know
ledge of the faith and perseverance of
those who go down to the seas in
ships. - Taking the ground that the
division of worlds history into the
natural and supernatural has been the
work of dwarfted brains, which were
not able to take in the grandeur of
the unity of all things DR.. Kelley
commended against this dullness of
vision which has grown up in spite
of the fact that Jesus of Nazareth
took text for his discourses far more
frequently from the world around
him than from the sacred books of
his day. He drew beautiful illus
tratlon from the sparrow of Gods
care, aud applied it with vivid force
to the lack of faith apparent in the
world to-day. Towards the finish he
dwelt appropriately on the unevenness
of the life of a good man thu gave
it its beauty and value and strength
and blessedness. ,
Concluding, Dr. Kelley said:

which often seem to bear backward

Arrival at Nashville.
Special to the Herald

Special to the Herald
Nashville, Tenn, Feb. I. Admiral
Schley' s arrival in Nashville yesterday
was the occasion of an enthusiastic
and popular demonstration, the like of
which has rarely been witnessed here.
By s 80 o'clock the time scheduled
for the arrival of the Admiral's train
fully 5000 people had assembbled in
and about the big terminal station,
and when the train pulled in their
enthusiasm was manifested by cheer
ing loud and long.
AS the train bearing the Admiral
passed over the Cumberland River
bridge and started in the circle around
Capitol Hill, the firing of the Admiral s
salute of seventeen guns was begun by
the firing squad stationed at point
of vantage ON the Capitol grounds.
The first charge belched forth re. echoed
through the valley and was the general
signal for. perhaps, the greatest
demonstration ever heard in Nashville.
Instantly half hundred whistles COM
menced blowing welcome, while per-
haps hundred bells were ringing at
the same time.
As he alighted from the train he was
introduced to the reception committee,
composed of l.. C, Garrabrant and r.
j. Mckay. representing the Retail
Merchants Association, and w. M.
Cassetty, John A. Jackson and Roger
Eastman, of the Knights Templar,
these gentlemen forming his personal
escort from the train shed. Mrs.
Schley appeared on the arm of Hon.
Joseph E. Washington.
While the party was passing through
the station to the carriages, the crush
was something terrific. Nothing of
the character has ever been witnessed
in Nashville, the demonstration here
by far counterbalancing the ovation
rendered Admiral Dewey upon the &C.
casion of his visit to Nashville All
along the line of march. from the
station to the Duncan Hotel cheering
crowds lined the streets and greeted
and Mrs Schley, while hun
1reds of men followed the carriages
through the mud and slush.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stahlman dined with
lmiral and Mrs. Schley in the private
lining room in connection with Ad
Schley's suite. The Admiral
md Mrs. Schley retired early, that !
hey might secure a good nights rest, !
