You may think It strange that SO
many people are cured Of stomach

Henry Mckee.
Respected Citizen of the
Old Sth District is the
Victim of aFatal Acct
dent.

Last Saturday morning at nea
5 o'clock, Henry H. Mckee, 0
the old 9th district, some four
teen to sixteen miles North wes
of Lexington, started to his worl
for the day, making boards
when he saw a rabbit in the vi
cinity Of some fruit trees and OF
THAT account went back to thu
house for his gun. Coming bach
with the gun. he had to cross {
three rail fence and crawling
through one of the openings
pulled the gun after him, will
the muzzle pointing toward him
Unfortunately, the hammer was
jerked against one Of the rails
with sufficient force to discharge
the load, which entered Mr.. Nc.
KEGS body on the left side, an
inch or more under the heart.
He was carried to the house, was
able to tell how the accident hap
pened and died at about 10 80.
DR.. w. f. Hantsman was called.
but Mr.. Mckee died some thirty
minutes before the long drive
was ended.
Henry Mckee was a big bod;
led, big hearted man, proud of
and devoted to hts family and
loyal always to his friends. For
many years he had been a pa
trbn and friend of the Progress
and its force and a visit from
him was always hailed wsths gen
uinepleasure. We shall miss his
cordial visits, his beaming face
aud his hearty handshake and
our heart goes out in the deepest
sympathy to the bereft wife and
four children who leaned upon
with trust and love. Very well
we remember the time when
friend Henry took to wife the
sister of his closest personal
friend, John Hemphill, and the
day soon thereafter when Henry
made it point to bring his
bride to see US as his good friend.
The sting Of his death is made
the harder by its tragic manner.

There will be regret that Pres
ident Thomas, Of the Nashville,
Chattanooga a. st. Louis, did not
live long enough to be able to
grant the 2 l2 cent rate Of fare
to the people of Tennessee. We
always believed that Mr.. Thorn
as would like to do so, but was re
strained by interests that owned
the railroad. His successor,
President Peyton is a man Of
great force, and We trust he will
be in the management of his
great line. While the Nashville,
Chattanooga ~ St. Louis was
charging 3 cents between Chat.
tanooga and Nashville, rate Of
2 cents was charged, through the
direction Of the Georgia railroad
commission, between Dalton and
Atlanta. This discrimination
against Chattanooga will rot ex.
ist tesuch an extent as before.
In Tennessee there will be nc
discrimination at all
We trust the time will come
when the Nashville, Chattanoo
ga s. ST. Louis will give the same
Arate toward Chattanooga and
FGeorgia points that it does to
ward Atlanta. Several year,
ago Chattanooga secured shop
lping trains Ga the Nashville

The Potato Bug
History of Origin ard
Eastward March of the
Tnber Destroyer.

The potato bug had its origin
in the mountain regions of Col-
orado. There it prey ed upon Q
species Of wild potato peculiar
to the RDc lie a1d known as the
sand bur- This plant, which
found its home in fertile tracts
among the hills, spread east
ward through mans agency in
one way and another. Doubt
less the cattle traffic was one
means by which the sand bur
was conveyed across the plains
into Missouri, where it flourish
ed. Incidentally, to the spread
o. the plant toward the east the
potato bug which it nourished
made its way in the direction of
the Atlantic Ocean.
In 1861, at about the time
when the rebellion broke out,
the armies of potato bugs, which
had already acquired taste for
the cultivated tuber, invaded
Ohio. During 1864 aud 1866
they crossed the Mississippi riv-
er. Such a stream was no bar to
their progress, and it is certain
that their hordes passed over
into Illinois at five points with
in a distance of 200 miles. In
1867 the beetles had made their
way into Indiana, and by 1869
they had appeared in Ohio. Dur
ing March, 1871, they swarmed.
in the streets as st. Louis, and
the following summer saw the
Detroit River literally alive with
them. At the same time they
wereNcrossing Lake Erie by my.
riads on ships, chips, slaves,
boards or any other floating OBJ
jects which were at hand. BY
1873 the advance guards of the
vast army had appeared on the
Atlantic Scahoard in West Vlr-
GINA and inthe District Of Co.
lumbias The ocean beaches
were thickly covered with them
aud only the Atlantic itself was
able to check their march. At
some places in Connecticut the
insects were washed ashore in
such numbers as to poison the
air. Vessels were boarded by
them in such swarms that the
hatches had to be closed. Rail.
way trains were stopped by them,
the rails having to be swept oil
and the tracks sanded before the
engines gould proceed. The
creatures accomplished their
wouderGslauarch across the con
tinent at the rate of from fifty
to eighty eight miles q year
