THE score of the two companies at
Chattanooga stood as two and nine
tenths for the Bluff City Grays, and
three for the Chickasaws. The Chicka-
saws we're one-tenth of one ahead, This
is pretty close. In fact, so nearly even
that both sides were willing to call it
square. They came home in the best
of humor, and hereafter there will be
no feeling or rivalry between the com
panies. There is ample room here for
both, as well as the Light Guards.
The Memphis boys cannot afford to
cherish any bitter feelings or prejudice
toward each other. After this they
will not. They came back thoroughly
united, and henceforth will stand to-

The human face is not only 'tthe index of
the SOUL" Every bodily sensation leaves its
indellible impress upon the features. Every
human face, if studied attentively, reveals
the physical and mental history Of its pos
SCISSOR. On the crowded street of the city,
what volumes of these histories are open to
all who would search them! The miser
with his features drawn as tightly as the
mouths Of his money bags; the debauchee
with his sensual, semi-animal face; the young
man with the future fair and broad before
him, every line of his countenance revealing
energy and ambition; the maiden's face
bright with innocent love and hope,-each
of these face-histories Is as legible as the
printed page before you. But there are
other faces in which We may read sad histo-
ries-faces of work weary women to whom
living has become an irksome burden. The
fatal alphabet of disease is written upon
every line of their countenances. Why will
these women suffer from those painful dis.
eases and weaknesses peculiar to the sex,
losing besides the charm and beauty Of =
bright, beautiful face, when DR.. Pierce's
Fayorite Prescription is sure and effectual
remedy? Ladies who have used it pro.

and the exceedingly low prices brings suit of

explained the substitute he had prepared,

Senator Window approved the Beck

other bill showed nothing.


Senator Salisbury denounced this cap

the bill would be jackass if he could not

"There is too much sickly, silly
sentimentality among young people,
said Rev. Mr.. Goss at the Peoples
Church recently, speaking on "Mis-
takes in Courtship;n " too much small
talk between lovers. The subject of
courtship is of Importance to every
body. There are seventy-three refer
ences to it in the Scriptures. God has
put on the pages of His own book re-
peated threats and commands as to
the right performance of the duty of
marriage. When we look at the news
papers and see the divorces we know
there is something wrong socially.


Now, courtship is the first step to
marriage, but lovers do not regard it
in its true light. AS lovers, they talk
too much. They are not like the In
dians, who think that this gabble is an
evidence of weakness in the head.
Frankness, outspoken advise, generous
sympathy must take the place of this
small talk. 1t is disgusting fact that
the palaver of lovers is worse than the
purring of cats. denounce the sense.
less twaddle, which is now called court
ing. A man ought to straighten him
self up when conversing with the lady
he hopes to make his wife, and with
whom he intends sharing his joys and
sorrows. Women know thing or two
on this point, and even giddy girls can
admire sincere, honest, manly fellow
who seeks their love. Lovers should
not go round the question, but come to
it in a straightforward manner. Don't
insinuate things TO each other, but
speak boldly of all that ought to be
known. If you are afraid to speak out
squarely, go home and read your Bible
and learn your duty. A man should
know as much about a woman and
woman as much about a man before
marriage as after, then there would be
an end of divorces and fewer dead
houses. o, the tricks and traps of So

Last Thursday evening middle
aged man, having the appearance of a
tramp, was found wandering about the
streets in the vicinity of Bellevue hos
pital, New York. He presented hag-
gard appearance, and seemed to suffer
great pain. He was taken by police
officer to the hospital, where he gave
his name as John Goodman, stating
that he had no residence or occupation.
No connected account of his condition
could be gathered from him, but it was
supposed from his symptoms that he
had taken poison. He expired shortly
after midnight in terrible agony, hav-
ing previously been treated by three of
the resident physicians. What occurred
afterward is best told in the language
of Edward McAllister, the night order

died." said he, Il took a card with his
name on to the office, and returned
with shroud, and commenced wash
ing him. He sat right up in bed all of

face. He then put up his hands and
struck me Il stunning blow under the
left ear. | was paralyzed with amaze

physicians returned and applied gal

life extinct, to the great relief of the
excited orderly. The sum of forty dol
lars in greenbacks was found sewed up
in the inner vest worn by the deceased.
An autopsy will be held to determine
the cause of his death. Post mortem
