Ask any of the old patrons OF The
Britain Marble Works, II East 6th
Street. Columbia, Tenn, If they were
pleased with the monument or tomb
stone we erected for them, and we are
satisfied the reply will sbe Yes, for
the very good reason that work never
leaves this establishment until it is
as near perfection as the best ma
terials and expert workmen can pro-
duce. The aim is to give all purchas-
ers all that is coming to them, and
then some. In carrying out the
policy of fair. spare dealing, that has
always been observed here, we have
made close business and personal
friends who patronize us with the full
assurance that should anything be
amiss we are a home concern, on the
ground, ready and willing to give
and take, and make all deals salts
factory to buyers of headstones, tomb
stones and monuments.

a MPersuaded" Prisoner.

The resourseful man is the one
who succeeds. There is a deputy
marshal in Alabama who does not let
any such trif1es as extradition laws
stop him. A writer in the Washing
to Post tells a story of one of his
achievements. When the term Of
court was about to begin one time a
man who was out on bail was reported
to be enjoying himself over the
Georgia.
Deputy Jim went after him. The
next day he telegraphed the Judge:
81 have persuaded him to come"
A few days later he rode into town
on mule, leading his prisoner tied
up snugly with a clothes line. The
prisoner looked as if he had seen hard
service.
"Why, JIM" exclaimed the Judge
"you did not make him walk all the
way from Georgia, did you?"
mo, SIR" replied Jim.
81 thought not" said the Judge.
mo" responded Jim. Part of the
way I drug him, and when we come tc
the Tallapoosa River he swum. -

PHOSPHATE FIELDS.

Any person in search of amusement
and wishing to enjoy an odd trip,
should visit the phosphate mines, make
the acquaintance of the engineer and
ride out to the Harlan mines and back
on the little engine used on the mar
row gauge road. Although very di-
minutive, these locomotives are ex-
tremely powerful and can haul several
cars of rocks at a good rate of speed.
Such a ride is very interesting and
an afternoon spent in the mines is
not wasted for one learns many use
full facts about the leading industry OF
this section. The steam shovel in
operation is also a peculiar sight and
always attracts much attention from
visitors.

An Actors Eccentricities.

Macready was dreadful man to act
with; you had the pleasant sensation
of knowing that you were doing moth
ing that he wanted you to do, though
following strictly his instructions, says
Mrs. John Drew in Scribner's. He
would press you down with his hand
on your head and tell you in an under
tone to stand up. Mr. Macready was a
terribly nervous actor; any little
thing which happened unexpectedly ir-
ritated him beyond endurance. One
night at the Park Macbeth was the
play. Mrs. Sloman, an old-fashioned
actress, dressed Lady Macbeth in the
manner which prevailed in her early
life-in black velvet, point lace and
