Readers OF these articles know that the

the latter be given control in Syria. From
Emr Feisa himself down TO the humblest

openly that they would resist the French.
Now they are fulfilling their threats. The
world knows of battles at BaalbeclS and

HORSE STEALING AFTER
THE CIVIL WAR.

Our neighbor. s"Uncie Billie
Wright, says that over u ! ina2lp
county where be was reared and lived
after the Civil war, there was much
of horse stealing in that part of Mid
die Tennessee and in Kentucky and so
bold did the thieves become that they
went in gangs and in Mr.. Wright's
neighborhood forced one farmer to
swap them a fine mare for a poor,
sore-backed horse and drove two or
three head of horses out of another
mans lot. The people bore it for a
while but finally organized posses
and when they came across a gang
of thieves simply shot them down
and thus brok up the stealing. There
was no getting away from decree
of this kind-but in these days, when
thievery of ever sort is rampant, the
thieves, with money can dicker along
under the law and so scott free in too
many cases. The deliberate thief is
generally "incurable." Even when
caught, convicted and sent to the pen
he comes out still thief.

ON-TIMBERLAKE.

Gill A. Gideon and Miss Louise
Undertake, popular young people
of Lexington, were married in Muir
freesboro, last Saturday and from
that place made a trip into the
South, a friend here receiving a card
from the groom, in Atlanta, on the
29th ult.
The marriage seems to have been
somewhat of Gretna Green affair.
The bride is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. J. d. Timberlake and is one
of the most estimable and best loved
girls the town of Lexington ever pro-
duced. She is blest with good looks,
good disposition and domestic incli-
nations-which three characteristics
alone would make her worth more
than her weight in gold.
The groom is a son of Engineer and
Mrs. T. B. Gideon, now living in Pa
ducah, but for many years residents
of Lexington and we never had better
people. Gill is known to all here and
universally liked. He is an efficient
employe of the N. C. & st. L. Ry.,
and is well capable of meeting the
great responsibilities he has assumed
and we believe he will justify the con-
fidenee of the people.
May Gill Gideon and bride live long
and be happy every day of their mar
ried life.
