1t is rumored that we are to have a
real menagerie in connection with the
moving picture show shortly. John C.
Bailey has one white rat, one Guinea
pig, one billy goat and a dog, and J..
Harvey Gillenwater has a ground hog
and crow. We understand they pur-
pose combining and calling the show
Barnum & Bailey.
The Tazewell Republican recently
asked: "Who is Hascue Yates, any
way?" Well, at the present time Has
cue is busy hoeing potatoes for G. W..
Keister. He says that he is twenty
eight years old and that he worked for
Henry C. Stuart for fifteen years. He
further says that he left Stuart's en-
ploy eleven years ago. Now, then, will
the reader kindly tell US how old Has,
cue was when he went to work for Mr..
Stuart? He certainly must have been
whopper at two years of age.
