—Editors Banner-Watcman: Dear Sirs.
We notice in your issue of to-day under
the head Restless Labor, that some va

Last Saturday morning about 3 o’clock
one of our prominent young physicians,
while wrapped in the arms of Morpheus,
dreamed that a huge snake was after
him. Quick as a flash, while still asleep,
he leaped over the foot of the bed to es
cape from the imaginary reptile, and his
head came in contact with the edge of a
trunk,othereby cutting a frightful gash
over his left eye. The gosh is about two
and a half inches long and one-fourth of
on inch deep, and tho wound is a very
ugly one indeed. The doctor is getting
along very well now, however, and will
soon recover from the effects of his som
nambulistic escapade.

Meeting Judge W. B. Thomas yester

“I feel no doubt about my ability to ex
tend the road,’ ’ he replied. “I have re
ceived letters from the Mayor and other
prominent citizens ol Knoxville, and they
give me every encouragement, and ex
press an earnest desire to secure the
road. I am promised $300,000 from
Knoxville in aid of tho enterprise. I
shall visit that city before I leave for
New York. I am now only waiting for
my passes snd to attend to certain press
ing duties, when I will start”
“When do you expect to take charge
of the North-Eastern?”
“1 am expecting every day something
deflniteon the subject. Iaminnohurry
to have the road turned over to me, for I
will have to run it very economically, to
even make expenses.”
“Will you make any changes ’on the
road?”
“I think not. Of course the engineers
and train hands are employes of the
Richmond & Danville and will leave, but
it is my intention to retain all the old
depot hands. I will give as many em
ployment as I can. For the first few
months I will rent a locomotive and cars
from tho Air-Line road, but will have
some built as soon as I can arrange to do
so.”
“Have you any doubt of your ability to
extend tho road to Knoxville?”
“I have not. I will bnild it, and make
no other calculation. The prospects tre
as bright as I can ask.”
