Burkes Garden

Burke's Garden, Feb. 2.-I.o, the
poor travelling man! How his life is
endangered and his patience is tried !
One evening this week two young
men were exploring the wilds of
Wolf Creek enroute from lower Clear
Fork to Burke's Garden. When they
reached terribly rugged and swollen
ford one horse, having crossed the
stream before, plunged into the wa
ter, floundered, at most, lost his foot
ing, but finally brought his rider safe
and sound, tho dripping, to the oppo-
site bank. THE other horse, that fiery
steed that is "blind in one eye and
can't see good out of the other,' be-
longing to Mr.. Moss of the livery,
did not like the looks of the water
nor did his rider care to risk his neck
so he called to his friend to go ahead
and tell the folks in the Garden that
he would be along later as he was GO
ing to try another route. BY this
time it was "dark as pitch" and both
men were quite a distance from their
destination and each had another
dangerous ford to make. However,
after toiling "o'er moor and fen,
Ger crag and torrent till the night
was well nigh gone," both reached
the friendly shelter of Burke's Gar
den. Man number one came in with
only wet clothes to complain of. Man
number two rolled in a few hours la
ter in fine spirits tho his overcoat
was torn and his face scratched by
the caressing brambles. They were
o. X. next morning, having found
rest and food and fire, and after pleas
ant calls on the merchants, took their
flight over Bear Town into Thompson
Valley.
Quite flock of travelling men have
braved wind, mud, and other difficult
ties into the Garden this week. Tho
"his paths beset, his way is, lost,
the nihgt has chilled his limbs with
frost" the travelling man usually
comes out all right at last.
Mr. Will Hoge died at his home ir
Bland on Tuesday night and will be
buried today.

daughter, Bessie Lee, became the

The bride received many nice pres
ents.
The young couple will leave Satur-

make their future home. May God $
richest blessing go with them, and
be with them in the building up of
another new home. We regret very
much to give up Bessie, as she was
one of the most worthy young girls
of our neighborhood. b. N.

which the spread of consumption will

which the spread of consumption will
be stopped.
The Red Cros Society, which is
composed of representative young
women of the city, has been making
plans for the employment of nurse
for some months, but has only been
able, during the last few days, to as
sure the success of the plan. Con-
gresham Carlin has volunteered to
pay large part of the expenses of
the nurse for the first year and has
thus enabled the Society to proceed.
1t is expected by those familiar
with health conditions here that n
visiting nurse, working in connection
with a tuberculosis dispensary, will
be great factor in reducing the
spread Of consumption as well as in
caring for those who have the dis
ease. The success of the tuberculosis
dispensaries in Richmond and else
where, and the splendid work accom-
plished by visiting nurses in other
cities has convinced the Red Cross
Society that the new plan will be
real municipal asset and will result
in great good.

Dublin Leads In Stock Shipment
(southwest Times.l


1t may not be generally recognized
that Dublin is Pulaski county's lead
ing depot if not a leading depot in
the entire southwest for the shipment
of live stock and cattle.
Mr.. John Buford of that hustling
little town was in Pulaski last week
and gave the Times the following
figures as to the shipments made
from Dublin last season:
209 carloads of cattle; 81 carloads
of sheep; 8 carloads of hogs; 6 car
loads of horses.
TIC better understand what these
figures mean it can be said that these
shipments represent about l2,5OO
sheep; 1000 or more cattle; perhaps
$500 hogs and 25 10 so fine heavy
draft horses and the total shipments
represent money value of not less
than half million dollars if the
Times has not figured wrong.
