A Tennessee Physicians Experience

A Tennessee Physicians Experience.
The man of medicine can tell many
interesting tales when he has mind

when he tells of the benefits to be had

Especial to News and Observer

twelve or fifteen months ago two Ger
mans. Messrs. Carl KitheI and Carl
Meiser. purchased the old plantation be
longing to Mrs. Mary Martin, mother Of

six miles north of Ellenboro. They
bought the land for the purpose of run
ming monazite business. The machinery
which they placed on the land cost $40
600, and it was shipped direct from Ger
many to that point, and there is q patent
on every piece of it. After these Ger
mans had been operating their business
for nearly a year they had some little
difficulty between themselves and one Of
them, Mr.. Kither, went down to Moorog-
boro and sold third interest of the
land to DR.. S. B. Register for 81 600. Dr.
Register now claims that one-third in
terest of the machinery and land belongs
to him.
The matter was brought before Judge
Justice about ten days ago and a re-
ceiver, Mr. S. M. Beam, of Ellenboro,
was appointed. He was instructed TO
see that nothing was removed from the
place. and that none of the sand on the
place should be worked, but that Messrs.
Kithel and Meiser should be allowed to
operate the machinery until suit was
decided at the March term of Rutherford
county court.
The Germans made friends the next
day after their dispute.
