looking wheelbarrow in town, and
in trice they had it before the
post office, where by this time
quite a crowd had assembled. The
butcher tried hard to beg off, but
willink hands dumped him in the
wheelbarrow and one of the maid
ems seized the handles. Off they
went at a rapid gait without re-
gard for the riders bodily comfort.
Hundreds of persons gathered to
see the show, but it was the butch
er, and not the girls, who felt out
of place. Before they had gone a
square he had offered to buy them
everything fro ma quart of ice
cream to a silk dress apiece if they
would let up. Never had such an
interesting procession paraded- Do

the wheelbarrow right up to the

dumped their irate and half dead

vember 1886, Elmer z. Taylor, who
had grown up a skillful mechanic,
was admitted to the firm. In jan
uary 1888, Gilbert B. Taylor was
admitted to the firm as means of
strengthening it financially, after
the embarrassment of the few
months previously, and the reor-
ganized firm of George w. & S.
Taylor Co., was thought to be get
ting along all right. Three years
ago the firm went more largely
into the manufacture of wheel cul-
tivators and the Little Diamond
cultivator, the expensive machin-
cry to do which causing their first
embarrassment To this was also
added a large expense in enlarging
and adapting the building to the
new work. 1t is claimed, however,
for the cultivator that it showed
a gross profit this year of over
$1,000. We can but repeat again,
we hope for the benefit of Smyrna
as well as the Messrs Taylor, that
some arrangement can be made for
these works to resume operations.

LETTER FROM KENTON

Penrose campmeeting broke yes
terday morning as it began amid
a shower of rain. 1t rained almost
continuously the ten days the camp
was in session. The tenters say
that on the whole they had a very
pleasant time. There were ten
tents occupied by Kentonians and
with this number from home there
could not be much loneliness.
The funeral of Henry Pratt.
who. lived near Blackstone Church
will take place tomorrow after
noon Wednesday, at 2 o'clock.
The services will be conducted by
Rev. w. w. Sharp at the church
near Mr.. Pratt's late home. Mr..
Pratt lived to a ripe old age and
was the pater familias of a fam
lily of children who are uniformly
noted for industry and thrift. The
Pratts are among the successful
and energetic farmers of Blacks
toms neighborhood.
A ne wfashion has been intro
duced into Kenton. Door plates
with the name inscribed thereon
are to be abolished, and a picture
of the occupant of the house repre-
sented at his favorite pastime is to
be pasted on the door as a substi-
tute for the plate. Anyone look
ing for the house of a friend can
easily discover it from the likeness
Of the picture. ]. B. Messick is
the first of our townspeople to
adopt the innovation. Mr.. Messick
is to be complimented for the
bright idea. In any community
where there is ignorance, door
plates are as unintelligible as

quired for picture reading.
