Dresden enterprise and Sharon tribune. (Dresden, Tenn.) 1907-1997, 1915-09-03

Everybody in town is wonder
ing what Ralph Lewis will do
with his faithful old lantern, now
that Dresden has electrically
lighted streets.
Prof. Syl Fisher has sold his
residence in Sharon, moving this
week to Puryear, where he is
principal Of the Puryear High
school. Mr.. Fisher also purchased
last week the Herman Shannon
farm, west Of Sharon. Puryear is
fortunate in procuring the services
OF this practical educator, splendid
citizen and valuable church and
Sunday school worker.
Fires in heating stoves in Augut
is a most unusual thing, yet many
fires we're built in heaters on last
Friday. Clerk Jeter had a roaring
fire in his office in the courthouse,
and the sitting room around the
stove was soon occupied. This
has been the most unreasonable
August ever experienced in this
section. Fact is, that every month
in this year, summer and all, has
had its cool spell calling for fires
for heating purposes.
Mr.. W. T. Pentecost, a sub.
stantial farmer and popular citi-
zen Of the Twenty.second district,
and Mrs. S. A. Tansil, an
esteemed lady Of the western part
OF the county, were joined in holy
wedlock in the office of Clerk
Jeter on Friday afternoon BY
Brother Mayo in the prettiest
wedding ceremony we ever heard.
A number Of citizens gathered to
witness the nuptials Of the aged
couple, who were shoWered with
congratulations at the conclusion
of the benediction which the
preacher invoked upon them.
1t seems from what we can
gather that the Enterprise was in
error several weeks ago in stating
that the gentleman, Mr.. Givins'
who was injured by the explosion
of a stick Of dynamite, was not
engaged in dynamiting for fish, as
was stated ID the article appearing
in this paper. Reliable and homo
able gentlemen say that these
parties had spent the day fishing;
that when they we're ready to start
home it was found that a couple
Of sticks Of dynamite had been
left in Green Trevathan's car,
having been carried out to use on
fthe road; that Givins and another
party each got a stick and re-
marked they would explode them
ITO give Mr.. Trevathan, who was
some distance away, a fright
4 Mr.. Morgan, the gentleman re-
( ferred to in our first article as hav-
ing been painfully shocked when
! the dynamite exploded at his feet,
was in, Dresden last Monday and
/, informs us that he was out SOUR
relhunting; that he was near the
] place where the gentlemen were
fishing and when he heard the
explosion Of the first stick Of dyna-
mite be ran to the scene, being but
a short distance away, we pre-
sunoe and lust as he got up to the
place the second stick exploded, he
getting a terrible jar. He says he
does not knew what tAe parties
were doing with the dynaBlte'

The commissioner of internal reve

The commissioner of internal reve-
nue. has recently published a ruling
to the effect that all checks which ere
ate or increase an overdraft at the
bank on which they are drawn are an
acknowledgement of debt only, and
must be stamped accordingly, that is
at the rate of two cents for 500 or
fraction thereof: A violation of this
ruling renders the person drawing
the check liable to fine Of 5000 for
each and every offense and the bank
paying the check doubtless becomes a
party to the fraud and is subject to a
fine of the same amount.
