To Prison For Life.

Frank Neighbors was sentenc-
ed by Judge McReynolds, of the
Criminal Court last Saturday
at Chattanooga to the peniten-
tiary for life for the murder of
George Taylor. Last May
Neighbors walked into the house
of his brother-in-law in the
southern section of the city, and
killed both Taylor and his wife,
who was Neighbors' sister, and
also dangerously wounded Mrs.
John Whaley, another sister.
His own explanation of the
crime was that his sisters had
not conducted themselves in the
proper manner, and that he at
tempted to wipe out the whole
family. Neighbors was tried
only on the charge of killing his
brother-in-law and the State be.
ing satisfied with the conviction,
will not prosecute the other case
! Neighbors' plea was insanity.

Col. Franz M. Gardenhire, one
of the Oldest and best known
citizens of the State, died at Chat

was in the Confederate army,
serving as a Lieutenant in the
First Tennessee Cavalry. He
was man of considerable wealth,
being one of the largest property
owners in that city.

A Sick Negro.

All the graft made on health
certificates has not been made by
the medical fraternity. On last
Saturday John Weatherford, col
ored, of Dresden, was in Martin,
and wanted health certificate.
Pink Busly, colored shoe
maker, told him he would get
him one if he would pay SO cents.
The negro did so. When Busly
went to the Office of DR.. V. A.
Biggs, Health Officer, and stated
he wanted a certificate for John
Weatherford. DR., Biggs refused
to give it unless Weatherford
came for it himself. Busly re-
turned, telling the negro every
thing was o, X, and all he had
to do was to sign his name. The
negro then went to the office OF
DR.. Biggs, and asked for his
health certificate. After sign.
ing and receiving the paper the
Doctor jocularly remar d
swat there you haven't paid
for that certificates. We sold
them for 81 yesterday, but we
are letting them go at SO cents

by saying: Didn't you git the
money ! paid that fekyY.'

Real Identity Kept a Secret.

A woman who has been known
as Frances Blind since her in
fancy, thirty-three years ago,
has been found after months of
search by the British Consul in
New York as the keeper of q
clearinghouse in Newark and
informed that her real identity
has been hidden from her all her
life.
She is the only daughter of a
wealthy lumber merchant OF
London, named Boutwell,, and
the woman herself discovers she
is really May Boutwell, of Lon.
don. She was brought to this
country an infant by the gov
erness in the Boutwell, family,
Mrs. Catherine Blind. Mrs,
Blind, with her husband, settled
in Newark, and was regularly
supplied with money with which
to reare the child. Mrs. Blind
was bound by promises not to re-
veal to the child the fact that she
was not her real mother and
Blind her father until the time
should come when the Londoner'
themselves should decide to &C
knowledge her.
A few days ago came the infor
nation through the British Con
sui that u sum of money and some
real estate had been left in Lon
don probably by the girls moth
er to Catherine Blind and he
children. From the facts sht
was able to present, the British
Consul assured her that her CLAIM
of the estate seemed genuine.

Iron Furnace Exceeds its Estimated
Capacity.

No. B furnace of the Tennessee
Coal, Iron 4 Railroad Co., at
South Pittsburg tried itself last
month. 1t is certainly a record
breaker for Southern furnaces.
Last Sunday it poured out 23O
tons of the molten metal, known
as pig iron, and that of the very
highest grades. This is only a
small furnace. When it was
built it was put up as l50-ton
furnace, but it has ran consider
ably over its allotted capacity
For the month of September the
general average has been 202
tons for every twenty-four hours.
This exceees many furnaces with
much larger capacity, and the
grade of iron taken one day with
another is far ahead of anything
in the South.

And the bills she had to pay.
She said that Tommy had hurt his knee,
And Bessie had had fall,
And might stop tomorrow and see
If the doctor could not call.

Attempts to Assassinate.

An attempt to assassinate
President Palma by drowning
has been made, according to n
cable dispatch to the N. Y. Her
aid dated October /. Details of
the plot came out only Sunday,
however, and then by accident.
The correspondent for the Her.
aid made inquiries as to why the
President was not using his
special car to and from Havana
as has been his custom, and was
informed that recently wedges
had been found driven into a
bridge over which he passed, the
wedges being so arranged that
had his car struck them at any
thing like it's usual speed it
would have been thrown into the
water under him. Fortunately,
however, the car was running
slowly and passed over the OBJ,
structions in safety.
The dangerwas net reeegpized
until 'afterward. Since thai
time President Palma has beer
driving the seven miles to hi'
home, always accompanied b,
secret service police. President
Palma will not leave his summer
home for several DAYS.
