Mrs. Grundy. (Tracy City, Tenn.) 1903-1930, 1904-10-20
Husband and Wife are Dead.

Within thirty-two hours and a
half after the death of his wife,
Mrs. Birdie Gleaves Patterson,
E. d. Patterson died at l 80
o'clock Monday afternoon at
Knoxville. Both of the deaths
were unexpected. Mrs. Patter-
son had been i'll for several
months, and Mr.. Patterson not
quite a week. When he died
Mr.. Patterson was not aware
that his wife had passed away.
Mr.. Patterson left Nashville
about a week ago for Knoxville.
He had been in that city but q
day when he was taken i'll. Mr..
Patterson was one of the best
known travelling men and pur-
chasing-agents in the city. He
been in business in Nashville
for about twenty-five years, hav-
ing started as a clerk in Cowan
& Co. He later organized the
firm of Patterson, Gibson Il Co.,
and became connected with
Phillips & Buttorf Co. ten years
ago. He was a man of fine chara-
cter and had host of friends.

Cause Of Lockjaw.

Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused
by bacillus or germ which ex-
lists plentifully in street dirt. 1t
is NATIVE so long as exposed to
the air, but when carried beneath
the skin, as in the wounds caused
by percussion caps or by rusty
nails, and when the air is exclud-
ed the germ is reused to activity
and produces the most virulent
poison known. These germs may
be destroyed and all danger of
lockiaw avoided by applyin G
Chamberlain's Pain Balm freely
as soon as the injury is received.
Pain Balm is an antiseptic and
causes cuts, bruises and like in
lures to heal without maturation
and in one-third the time re-
quired by the usual treatment.

Jail Delivery at Colombia.

Ten prisoners broke out of the
Maury County jail Monday night
about s O'Clock and made good
their escape. With an iron bar
they removed stone in the par
tition which enclosed them, and
then priced an iron bar from an
outside widow aud let them
selves down to the ground with q
rope improvised from Jail blank
cts.
All those who escaped we're
negroes confined in the upper
part of the Jail. There were
fourteen prisoners, but four re-
fused to leave. The twelve
white prisoners downstairs did
not get out.

will speak in Chicago on the day
after election. His text will be
s'the reorganization of the De-
mocracy." Of course, this all
rests on the supposition that the
Parker-Davis ticket will be de-
feated.
The radical element in the
Democratic party has opened
headquarters in Chicago at the
Hotel Majestic, where an organ
ganization known as the Anti
Parker League is sending out
literature and organizing the
Bryan Hearst people to oppose
the regular Democratic nomi-
nees. j. p. Locke is secretary
of the organization.
William Randolph Hearst is
not giving the Parker-Davis
ticket any material support.
His Chicago newspapers are lay
ing great stress on the Populist
campaign, giving more space to
Watson's speeches and letter of
acceptance than to those of
Alton b. Parker.
1t is a matter of common re-
port in Chicago that Congress
man Hearst will cooperate with
Bryan to swing the Democracy
of the West away from Parker,
and then to aid in undressing the
New York men now in control.

ments will have their effect on

Martin College Destroyed by Fire.

Martin College at Pulaski was
discovered on fire at ii O'Clock
Monday morning, and was total
ly destroyed except the walls.
Lack of water and a stiff wind
handicapped the tiremen. All
the boarding pupils, numbering
about sixty, representing nearly
every Southern State, escaped
without any casualties and saved
most of their belongings. The
citizens of Pulaski win see that
they are we'll cared for. Two
special policemen guard the con-
fused mass of pianos, clothing,
books, ETC., which strew the
campus.
The loss will aggregate close to
$40, 900, with about $50, 200 in
surance. The origin of the fire
is uncertain, but it is supposed
to have been caused by defec-
tive t1ue in the kitchen.
The college is under $50, 900
mortgage, the bonds being held
by non-residents, but it will
probably be rebuilt. Equal to
the emergency, President
Hayes will open school in day

After 1t!
By II. ellison Gardner.


A significant but quiet feature
of the present national campaign
is the movement which is already
on feot to recapture the Demo-
cratic party from the control of
David B. Hill, William F. Shee-
han and the rest of the New
York crowd.
Little had been said about it,
the movement being overshaow-
ed by the interest in the presi-
Dental contest. But more will
be heard of the movement from
this time on, and when the ele-
ction is over itsis likely that a
unique campaign will begin at
once, whose prize will be the
control of the party of the oppo-
sitien.

John Harvey, negro desperate,

action was conducted along social
lines by two young women introduced
by common friend:
I'm sure I'll cheat your friend"
said the amateur auctioneer. How
do [ know how much my old stuff
ought to bring? Probably she'll
hate it and feel she must take it for
the sake of politeness.''
How can I tell but I'm cheating
her?" appealed the amateur bidder.
"Or how can I let her know that I
couldn't sleep o. nights with such
furniture in the room?''
After the meeting, the business
women again reported to their COM

amateur auctioneer. ''She bought so
much and paid such a lot. 1 feel
that 1 ought to return some of the
money"
'Your friend and 1 had such diff
ficulty," said the amateur bidder,
"even IL mentioning figures. At the
first mention of anything numerical
on my part she seemed SO relieved. I
wish you'd make sure that she didn't
sell any OF the pieces by mistake; for
then, Of course, I'd send them round"
