Local and Personal,
Read Sotider’s new “ad.”
Miss Mary Case returned from a visit
to Wildwood Tuesday.
Since school closed, personals, locals,
etc., are rather scarce.
This week’s rain suspended iron ore
tnining at Diamond Hill.
Tan bark has dried up, and no
tnore will be peeled this season.
It is with regret we learu that, Col. E.
P. Buck, of Cole City, is very ill.
Mrs. Byrd, mother of our Sheriff,
returned toCloVerdalo Wednesday.
Miss Ida Ketcberside is visiting her
grand-mother, Mrs. Allison, this week.
Wilkinson & Craig arc preparing to
move their saw mill on Sand mountain
next week.
Two or three of Mr. J. A. Cureton’s
children have the measles, are the only
cases now in town.
Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Doyle, of Cole
City, are visiting relatives in Trenton
and vicinity this week.
The junior “Ed.” spent several days
in Chattanooga this week: hence, the
deficiency in oitr locals.
The words “pickled beets” “boiled
eggs” will recall very pleasant memories
to a certain young man.
Dr. E. B. Ketclicrslde Will begin
building his residence as soon as his bill
of lumber is filled aud arrives.
A bill will be introduced at the nex*
session of the legislature submitting
Prohibition to the voters of this county.
See notice.
Rain in abundance, and if it continues
the clover crop will be hard to save,
and. also make it troublesome to har
vest the wheat crop.
One of the most enjoy aid 3 social par
ties to which the young folks were ev
er treated, was at the residence 01 Mrs.
N. M. Brock’s last Friday night.
What has become of the Sunday
school pic-nie ? We suppose it was
“Mowed” to touch at first. A general
one will be at Morrison to-morrow.
Mr. G eo. Sitton brought into town
Wednesday and placed on exhibition a
tarapin winch had several natural E's
on its back as clear and di tinct as print.
Only t! ree glasses wore broken in the
town last week by pitching and catch
ing balls on the square. Alright, so alt
damages are made good, we suppose.
We notice a number of good clover
fields in the county, while others will
hardly be worth mowing. Mrs. Morgan
at Morganville has the linest poiee we
have seen.
It was not our pleasure to attend the
Sunday School Convention at Clover
dale last Saturday, but all who did re
port it a most enjoyable and entertain
ing occasion.
Applications have already been made
for the school at this place. We have
a first class and well furnished school
building, and the trustees will pursue
a course that none but able and ex
perienced teachers will be admitted.
The reaper and mower works to be
moved to Chattanooga shortly will not
only be quite an advantage to that
city, hut of great benefit to the sur
rounding country. Farming implements
manufactured and bought in an im
mediate section gives the farmers a de
cided advantage, as any broken piece
of the machinery can be easily and quick
ly replaced.
We have a number of subscribers
who are, we are satisfied, wholly indiff
erent as to whether their subscriptoin
is paid or not. To such, it rests entirely
upon your honor. We have not been
disposed to dun our subscribers through
the paper, but the past six weeks has
cost us more than usual, and we need
the money.
We hope our readers will pardon the
thousand and one errors that appeared
in last week’s issue. We employed a
young typo monstrosity last week,
while we attended the Normal exercise.
The young man had read of a prize be
ing offered for an enigma or puzzle,
and thought he might succeed by send
ing a copy of the Times with some of
his composition in it as a successful
contestant.
Prayer meeting Railed to convene last
Sunday night, and the boys report that
they organized down on the depot
platform. Of course, it was a mock one
and sacrilegious in its character. It is
a question, Which did the greater sin,
the boys in conducting the mock pray
ermeeting at the place they did, or the
professed Chrirtains in not being at
their place and conducting the regular
prayer meeting? We must lay the sin
more heavily at the door of the latter.
If all the citizens of Dado county
could make a trip over the public road
around the point of Lookout Mountain,
it certainly ought, if it did not, give
them some inspiration for improving
our public roads. It would not in' easy
to estimate the additional value it
woidd give the farming lands of this
county and the county in general if
only we had a good and first class pub
lic road running through our county.
A move ought to be inaugurated look
ing to that end. We have always
questioned the practicability of working
convicts on the public roads, but the
more we sec the necessity of good pub
lic roads, the more we are disposed to
favor such a course with our convicts
Mbs Florence Pace is at homo.
Dr. Ketcherside has corn that is tas

Joe Morris left for Chattanooga yes

Dr. Lumpkin arrived back from La-
Fayett yesterday where he had been

Henderson, Walls, & Co., are the

The young men's debating society

of Marshal] Kay, who was bitten by

The Butler Herald gives an amusing
account of the manner in which a man
living on a farm near Reynolds caught
a scorpion. It says thst he was fishing,
fell asleep with his mouth open, flies
entered the! cavity, and a scorpion in
pursuit of them, that the man being
awakened by the motion of the reptile
closed lit- mouth id . e ugh*
the trap, when toe s- orpion bit him,
causing mouth > swell badly.
The most seared person we ever saw
yet, was a negro woman who came near
being caught and ran over 0;. the
Wilkinson tresle l ist Monday evening.
When about half way across, she threw
her luggage, consisting of a filled tow
sack, general trinklets, and hat, across
the railing and lit out for the further
end. The train stopped just as it got
to her luggage and the fireman got off
and picked it up, and waiting until she
got safely off the bridge the train
started again. Her luggage wp,s thrown
off where she was standing in great
distress and giving vent to cries. It
certainly took her hours to recover and
realize that the train never ran over aud
killed her.

Tho ChTc’ress Affair.
Our readers have all, no doubt,
learned something about tho rather
sensational incident which occurred
in Walker county some days ago in
which Miss Childress is the prominent
character. The associated press agent
sent it to the world as an occurrence
at this place, and the Sporting World
has so given it a monstrous illustra
tion. If Trenton and its inhabitants
appeared anything like as represented
in that publication, we would heat the
record on rough characters aud gener
al appearance.
The sum ot the whole matter is,
that a young fellow in Walker county
made some slanderous remarks about
a young lady who was teaching school
on Lookout mountain, in this county
and she simply put herself in posses
sion ol a gun, called on the young
fellow and made him (in vulgar par
lance) “eat it.”
Tho affair, as sent to the perss, cre
ated no little interest, and a number
of letters from various parts of the
Country are now in the Trenton post
office directed to Miss Childres, sup
posed to be inquiries relative to the
matter.
Snescribc for the Times and help build
up home interests,
Military Company.
There will be a meeting of young men
at the court house in Trenton Saturday
June 11th, for the purpose of organiz
ing a military company. Let every
young man who feels an interest in the
matter attend.

COMMUNICATED,
Monday morning, May 23rd. I'd,
Martin Rennow, ltsq , Jett the Dade
Mines, or upper Cole City, about 8
o'clock for CasCe Rock, where ha was
employed as a foreman of the mines
working free labor- His children are
livihg here, consequently he was Com
ing home every Saturday evening and
returning Monday morning. Ire called
at my house when I was at breakfast
and waited till I was ready to go with
him to my office at the Dade Mines.
After a short consultation appertaing
to the work, he left with the words,
“Come over when you can.” Tuesday
the 24th he got up early as usual,
washed and dressed himself, ready for
the duties of the day, when Mr. John
Day, with whom he was boaiding,
called him to breakfast, whereupon Mr
Rennow remarked that lie did’nt feel
like eating anything, and “my arm,”
says he, “l fear I shall lose the use
of it.” lie, however, sat at the table
a fid immediately fell over without a
word spoke. Mr. Lay caught him,
and when help was had, they carried
him to bed in the next room. Ob
serving death in his countenance, J.
M. Reaves was sent to our place to
bear the sad intelligence. Geo. W.
Ronhow and A. J. Rennow, his sons,
and Mr. 11. L. Wade, his son-in
law, ami myself,took horses and with
much speed, we reached the place by
8.30 a. m. To our sorrow, there we
found my old friend Rennow as nat
ural as ever, but, alas! death had full
possession of his body. The day was
far advancing, and very warm, so I
had a bier made, that we might car
ry him down the mountain, from
thence by rail to upper Cole City.
IT, body was taken to the house of
Ja .son, his son. Ho was buried
Wednesday, May the 25tb,near Mor
gan viile, Dade county,
I was intimately acquainted with
Mr. Rennow; I always found him to
be a good citizen, true to the wel
fare of the people; therefore, let us
remember nothing only his good deeds
foi lie had a kind heart and a bosom
full of sympathy for tb unfortunate
and the distiessed. L us foi
bles rest with him in the , \.ve, and
his sins with his Savior. V\ e shall
miss him very much as a friend and
neighbor. It can be said ot him,
that he had a large number of friends

Since the long drought has been

The fair, lost fields of happiness
