DepIOrable Accident to South

SOUTH PITTSBURG, Tenn. March
Mai, the IL year old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. E.. N Adcock, accident
ally shot herself at the residence of
Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Gillespie, where
she had been sent on an errand by her
mother. 1t appears that when little
Alice entered the Gillespie home Mrs.
Gillespie was busily engaged in dust
ing and arranging the bric-a- -brac on
her mantel. The weapon with which
the deed was done was 30 caliber re-
volver which was on the mantle be-
hind picture, which Mrs Gillespie
moved and placed on center table. at
the same time cautioning the little
girl not to touch it. 1t seems that she
did not hear the admonition of Mrs.
Gillespie, but took the pistol, resting
the handle on the table, and proceeded
to peer down it's barrel, when in some
manner the weapon was discharged,
the bullet entering the girls mouth
and finding Judgement in or near the
brain. Mrs. Gillespie was horror
stricken and hastily called for help,
which soon came, and did all that ten
der and loving hands could do, but to
no avail, as the little girl was beyond
human aid, dying in twenty minutes.
The grief of the parents over the affair
was pitiable in the extreme. The fun
eral will occur tomorrow from the

Talked to EN-.

n. B. Moore, of Whitwell, was one
of the speakers at the Bryan banquet
in Chattanooga Thursday night. The
theme of his discourse was 1.-The Dawn
of Reform in Modern Politics and
Chattanooga papers report that he
spoke most entertainingly. Nearly two
hundred staunch admirers of William
Jennings Bryan were present, which
celebrated his 4Sth birthday.
Mr.. Moore traced briefly the history
of politics in this country from the
earliest days of the government, com
pairing the policies of Hamilton and
Jefferson, and, according to the latter,
the place of the great American states
man of his time
Conditions of progress and happi-
ness" said Mr.. Moore, prevailed
down to the days of the civil war. -
He described in a few pointed words,
the unsettled affairs and corruption
which followed the great conhict-in-
cidentally paying tribute to Abra-
ham Lincoln. Out of such conditions,
he asserted, had grown the possibili-
ties of the success of "unseltish inter-
ests the tariff aiding in the deplora-
BILE outcome. The dark clouds of sec
tionalism, he said, have passed away.
But the evil of system which fosters
mighty mOnOpOlies remain. From
these evils the speaker turned to an
expression of confidence in the success
of the party whose representatives he
addressed and in the selection of that
party's great leader. The present
epoch in politics, with its hope of
democratic success, Mr.. Moore said,
typifies the sentiment to which he was
called to respond History, he said,
will record jefferson, Lincoln and
Bryan as the greatest of American
| statesmen.
