Cookay, Widow 8 00 Dr. H. M. Acres has recently placed in his office a new dental chair, which is at once a thing of beauty, and a very complete piece of mechanism. It is called the tnproved Wilkerson chair, and is the combination of one or two pat ents that make it as near perfect as Dossible.

The chair is- made of walnut and crimson plush, with metalic appurtenances. It Is ex ceedingly neat and strikingly contrast with the bulky and cumbersome chairs of the old style. But what is really wonderful about this piece of furniture is its mechanical arrangement. We can't go into minute description of all its workings, but will state that It can be lowered, hoisted, turned and shifted Into any positionjdesired, by a simple process, and without any Inconvenience to the person occu pying it. It can be adapted to the size of any one, from a small child to a large man.

The head rest is something marvelous in itself. If you like to see a pretty piece of furniture or a complete piece of mechanical work, drop in to see Dr. Acree. We Inadvertently omitted, men' tion, last week, of the death of Ilenrle A. Riggins, wife of Mr.

G. Risrsrins. of. New Providence, which occurred in that place Wed nesday, the 12lh of spinal meningetis. She was a daughter of Mrs.

R. Hatcher, of St, Beth- leheraV and waarin the-25th "year of her age. She was a cultivated lady a eood wild and mother, and was highly esteemed by all who knew her well.

The book will furnish a sketch of every Tennessee regiment that served In the Confederate with a Hat of commissioned oncers and the soldiers who were killed and mortally wounded.

The articles for the book have been prepared by soldiers from the rank of private to that of Major Dr, Litidsley 'very aptly says that Tennessee played no second part in the great civil war, and her sons were conspicuous among those Southern soldiers who fought for four years without pay, and of-Jen without breads as soldiers never fought before.

The editor of the Chronicle and L. Yancey, of the Clarksville bar, are unable to decide which them has been elected an honorary member of the Stewart Literary Society of the 8.

P. University. The Record, the Society announces that H. L. Yancey was dignified With that honor, and that a kind of splicing of the editor's name with that of his lawyer namesake.

It was probably intended for kind of condenser, as it were. The editor is profoundly thankful for bis share of the honor, not only because the Stewart Society is a distinguished' body, but because he was elected' in such good company. The other persons similarly honored the same time' were the leading members qt the Clarksville bar, Hon. L. Q.

L. Moody, the stationed Methodist preacher thisjclty, Mr. Bryee Stewart and all the Clarksville girls. Chicken thieves have been op-' crating on Greenwood Avenue lately. A large number of fine fowls were stolen from Mr.1 Neblett, of the Chronicle, at his residence in that locality a few nights ago.

We also learn that they stole one night last week about a dozen from Mr. P. H. Kee see on Madison street. Keep your guns loaded, gentlemen, and give them a warm reception next time they visit you.

The Franklin (Tenn.) Review and Journal says that Rev. Jno.

Jas. H. AChey, of the Port Royal neigh-, borhood, for the office of Sheriff appears in to-day's paper. He was Sheriff a few years ago and made a good and efficient officer. As a man he stands above reproach and Is very generally popular.

We don't hesitate to say that he is worthy of the support of the people. Jackson, suffered from a disastrous fire on the night of the 16th, which destroyed a whole block of buildings. The fire originated in A. D. iDuggera grocery store.

Th captains, clerks, pilots, mates, and all the test are polite gentlemen. You are treated as if you were at home. There was an excursion party of young gentlemen and ladies on the boat they were full of frolic and We left Nashville about six the evening, and as soon as supper was over, the tables were set aside and a fine band of music came out and commenced playiagr, and the party commenced dancing, and they continued till two o'clock next morning, I know nothing about the science dancing, nor could I--understand distinctly everything the prompter said, so what I could not understand from the lips of the prompter, had to draw my conclusions from the. conduct and attitude of the dancers. I.

could understand the command, "swing your partners," and around they went then I under-stood the prompter "arm your partners;" and arming'. was done. Then a command was given, but 1 could not understand It, and I had judge from the attitude they oc cupied on the floor I- suppose It was to "act the Muscovy for they at once their heads half way to the noor, powing joveacn other on the xight and left. The Muscovy will bow to -everything they 'meet; nothing, more polite than they. I had to judge of an other command by the actions of the party.

I suppose it was to charge your partner backwards," for the lady came dancing up to her f. partner wun ner unrjL to uitu, uui would swing round to the front very gracefully. Then some of the party indulged waltzing. This I don't like my judgment and advice Is, hands off, and for the gentlemen and ladies to keep on their own Side of the house. Mothers would do well teach their daughters otherwise, and brothers' who have sisters can't jus tify it.

The lady that rests her chin on the broom stick, aad hogs with both arms, beats waltzing to death. The wife of the preacher ou the Antioch circuit, who has been sick Nashville for some weeks, has recovered sufficiently to get home, and is still improving. But little has been done in the way of farming on the Southside; few plant beds, burnt but look out when the winter is over. Prof. Robert Batson has a fine school at Poplar Grove.

He is a young man of sterling worth, and well adapted to school teaching. I learn that Prof. Henry Wyatt will commence school in the Bend next Monday. He Is an old tlwcheE, and too well known to ned any recommendations. It Is enough to say that he is a good teacher, a ever gentleman, and one of oar best citizens.

May he lone live to bless society. Thomas Prewitt, -from Indian Creek, moved down last Wednes day to the Bend. He had five wagons, and it looked like Jacob with hia family coming down to Egypt to live in the rich lands of Goshen. B. M.

HARRIS, March 32, hsas-tds HberMr. ber, accompaiiied the remains to the grave and performed their usual rites. Hollemaa, of the Clarks-viile police force, called our attention to an errof "which 6ccnrredIo the ChuokicleJ last week. The errtr was In the statement that there are 48,000 Mexican- veterans in the South who will receive pensions if the bill now before the Congress for that purpose becomes a law. We clipped the paragraph which it occurred from one of our daily exchanges stopping to consider the accuracy of the statement.

A little thought on the subject would have led us to see that it is aa There were only seventy-nine rank and file, of the United States troops in Mexico including vol un regulars and marines. Of the volunteers, 44,223 came fom the Southern States, Including Maryland, District ot Columbia and Missouri. Taking info consideration that quite a nnmber of these soldiers were killed in the war, and that a great many of them have died since, the inaccuracy of the statement made last week can be readily seen. Officer Hoiieman is one of the old Tennessee volunteers who did such noble service in the war, and we hope he will soon be drawing the pension that he and his com rades ought to have been drawing for years past. DmtH of Mr.

M. H. CmM Mrs. Matilda H. Coleman died at her home in New Providence Sun day night at 10 o'clock, after a week's lllneso of menlngetls, aged 42 years.

The deceased was a native of England, and removed to this Country with her father, Mr. Howard, at the early age of ten years, in isoa sue was married to Mr. w. H. Parish; of this county, who died about two years later, leaving one son, Mr.

W. H. Parish, now a resident of Dallas, Texas. She was married to Mr. B.

F. Coleman June 15th, 1885', who with seven children, mourn their irreparable loss. Mrs. Coleman was a consistent member of the Christian church, a woman of indomitable will and energy, and in every, respect a model wife and mother. The remains were interred in the City Cemetery Monday evening at 4.30 o'clock, Rev.

R. J. Craig officiating. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved family and friends. Three of the prisoners of Jhe work house gang escaped from the guards Thursday moraine.

Their names were Shelby Henderson, Alex. Thompson and Wlliam, Mer- riwether, Jail negroes. Mr. Sam. Wilcox and Mr.

S. E. Ramey were the guards in charge. The gang was being carried through an alley between commerce and Madison streets, near the residence of Mr. A.

L. Whittaker, when the three pris oners mentioned made a break for their liberty. The guards fired several shots at them but didn't succeed in stopping them. Mr. Ramey Is of the opinion that one of the fleeing culprits was wounded.

It made times lively for a little while in the locality where the skirmish occurred. A stray shot struck thg back door of Mrs. Kelty's residence on Franklin street. Later. Shelby Henderson was recaptured at St.

Bethlehem Thurs day afternoon by constable Stafford. He was shot in the arm and side, but was not seriously hurt. He had gone to the house of his mother who lives near St. Bethlehem. He crossed Red river on the railroad trestle.

We publish a very nice poem on the fourth page of this issue which some of our readers may possibly have read before. It is reproduced for the benefit of our brother editors of the rural press in order to assure them that "We eaa make our Uvea sublime." At least, that is what the poem aava. but we are ufraid that the most of us will never find where the sublimity comes in.
