A Splendid Promotion.

I Mr.. ]. w. Temple, manager TO
the Cumberland Telephone & Tele
graph Co. of the local exchanges
and county toll lines, was notified
last week that he had been pro
melted to be the company's specia
agent in this section of the State
Thirteen years ago on the 18th Of
September Mr.. Temple took charge
OF the Union City exchange with Il
subscribers. BY the force of per.
sistency and capable management
he has to-day a list of nearly six
hundred subscribers. with Is opera
tors, exchanges at Troy and Rives
and toll lines extending through
the county in every direction. The
company has just recently read
iusted the city wires, replaced the
old poles with large and substantial
new ones. They now own their Of
fee building, which is furnished
throughout with antique oak fix
lures and new apparatus supply
ing a metallic circuit. These new
arrangements are not quite COM
plete, but in a few weeks they will
be ready to take the place of the old
exchange appliances and then I'm
ion City will be as well equipped
with telephone service as any city
in the State.
All these things are substantially
due to Mr.. Temples efforts in I'm
ion City.
The gentleman who is thus pro-
NOTED was reared at Henderson.

soldier with gallant record. He
was married at Henderson and To-
Gated in Union City about eighteen

Middletown, July 21.-Banaby Jes- sup, a gypsey fortune teller, decided to leave town to-day, so he picked up in his arms live pony. his only prop erty, boarded @ trolley car and rode to the dock to catch the boat for New York. The pony was stout, lively little fellow, which the gypsy made use of in his fortune telling, and if Jes- sup had not been a very strong man he could not have managed the ami mai in the motherly manner he did.
 The conductor of the car demurred when he saw the gypsy board the car with the creature in his arms, saying they did not carry live stock, but the gypsy argued that the pony had as much right there as the bundles the ladies had on their laps. The conduct or allowed the little pony to finish his ride, although he charged a f1ve-cent fare for him, as the gypsy admitted he was over five years old.
