 Yesterday the official notices were sent fro mthe office of Mayor Teague to this" effect, and In response to 1t all of the local officials are actively en- gagged in the preparation of their rec ports and the compiling of the years progress. stated in facts and figures.

Tax Assessor Eubanks now has his county tax books in finished form, and says everything will be in readiness for the collection of taxes by Saturday next. The hooks are in the hands of the Probate Judge and that official now has his abstract made.
 Ordinarily, while considerable cleri- cal work would be entalled> by the late receipt of the assessment by the State Tax Commission of the intangible assets of corporations. this has been avoided by a plan of Mir. Eubanks.
 Instead of placing the assessments upon intangible assets on the books proper. they are treated as ''escapes,' 9 or late assessments which have been overlooked. In this way the totals of the regular assessments are not dis. turbed,

HOMECOMING WEEK.

The New England States, about
twelve or fifteen years ago instituted a
&C Istom which has since spread over the
entire country. Kentucky was the
first Southern State to adopt the East

will fall in line. Texas, Oklahoma,
Missouri, Kansas and in fact, all of
the Western States will be plastered
with invitations to the Sons of Tenn

Nashville probably will be the scene of
reunion between many friends who
have not met for years, as the Home
Coming Week will be held the same
week as the State Fair. Arrangements
will be made by the railroads for all
HomeComers to take sidetrips into
other parts of the state after reaching
Nashville. Fifteen thousand circulars
are already being sent to the remotest
parts of the country, as it is realized
that those who must come long dis
tances also must prepare early for the
"trip.

FARMERS FIGHT.

John Davis and Lee Cloyd,
two farmers of Monroe county,
had a fight one day last week.
They had gone to a mill at Me-
shack to have some corn ground.
Davis corn having been ground
he put his sack of meal on his
horse and started for home,
when Cloyd ran up behind him
and cut his sack of meal with his
pocket knife. Davis was anger
ed at this, and after a few words
the two engaged in a fight, using
their knives as weapons. Davis
struck Cloyd on the neck, cutting
a deep cash from the back of his
ear to the front of his throat.
He almost bled to death before a
physician could reach him, and
is in precarious condition.
Both are men of families and
about thirty-three years old.
