in the Eastern manufacturing regions
having expanded the business Of these

STOVES GO UP.
RtlJENT ADVANCE OF 10 PER
tENT PROBABLY TO BE FOL-
LOWED BY ANOTHER.

An advance of 10 per cent on the
price Of stoves TO affect this territory
has just been announced. Formal
action in the matter was taken at the
recent meeting Of the association in
Chattanooga
According to dispatches sent out
from Chattanooga another early ad-
vance is not improbable.
The reasons given for this advance is
the increase Of pig iron from sia to
sl6. 90 per ton, the advance in the
price of coke and to an extent to the
labor troubles in Alabama.
The National Association announced
this advance in stoves some time ago.
but the Southern and Western organ

until last week.

county that has produced rs, 600, 900
pounds Of tobacco in q year Mr..
Wheeler says he has counted 1900
wagons loaded with tobacco right in
the chief city of this tobacco county.
Notwithstanding his familiarity
with the growth of this weed, a story
Of his first law case comprises a joke
appertaining thereto. Coming up to
Paducah as young lawyer not yet 81,
Mr.. Wheeler was engaged as attorney
in a quarrel that arose in q tobacco
patch. The present congressman
waxed eloquent in behalf of his client
and the jurymen were all attention.
"why, gentlemen" declared he, 81
know all about the growing Of to-
bacco. I was raised in the midst OF
tobacco on my fathers plantation. j
almost grew on a tobacco vine"
"Then it was," said Mr.. Wheeler al
the capitol the other day, THAT I saw
smile come over the faces Of the
jurymen. I had slipped. I ought to
have said plant. To this day they
bring that up against me as good
joke in Kentucky. - Washington

Thursdays services at Highland
park camp were enjoyable. Rev. T,
II. Smith preached at 10 am. to an
appreciative audience. Rev. G. A,
Smith, of Cleveland, talked to the
children ut 1 80 pm. Rev. j. Il. Tur|
ner gave his first address ON the sub
iect of Bible study at 2:30 pm. 1t
requires only a few moments to, con-
vince the hearer that the professor
not only knows his Bible, but has the
faculty of impartlng his knowledge
to others. At 1880 last night Bishop
W. NJ. Stamford preached from Matt.
1924. The Bishop, though tired and
worn by reason of excessive labors at
various campmeetings at which he has
been in attendance. has lost none Of
his keen conception of Biblical truths
and his presentations were powerful.
A change in the program was made
with reference to the Bible lessons
by Prof. Turner which are to be held
regularly at 8 o'clock am. instead OF
$50 pm. "a
