A happy Now Year to vou all -- Ilick man merchants arc jubi- - lant over their unprecedented, good holiday trade. Mrs Press Berry, of Ilirkinan ! county, caught her clotiiiug on fire from u grate, and was burned to death. We are requested to an- nounce that Elder William Belt will preach at Poplar Grove, next Sunday, at the usual hour. The OouEinu neglects to print the names of Hickman ladies who will recivo New Year calls to-da- y, because the list is not full, and we don't desire to show par- tiality. Two colored men, Winstons by name, got to projecting with a pistol, Christmas day, at Iieid's mill, and one accidentally shot the other in the jaw. Wouud is not fatal. Mr. Ben. J. ITertwcclc and Miss E. M. Piggott, both of Hick- man, were married on tho 27th. Congratulations of numerous friends are extended, and many wishes for a long, useful, prosper- ous and happy life. The Kentncky Legislature as- sembled Wednesday. The Demo- crats of each Houae met in cau- cus, but adjourned without efl'cct-m- g an organization. Tho pro- gramme was to organize Wednes- day morning, but the CouKicn has no later news. Among the coming candidatOB we hear the name of Willis F. Boffe, of tho Cayce precinct, pretty authoritatively mentioned as a candidate for County Asses- sor. He is a clever man, compe- tent for the place, an old citizen, and would make a good assessor if elected. The announcement of the death of Hon. James E. Bailey of Ularksville, which occurred at his residence Tuesday morning at 7 :45 o'clock, will awaken a mourn- ful feeling in the breast of every Tennesscan who esteems personal worth, and sets a value on eminent talents conscientiously devoted to the welfare of the State. We can all remember when a "2:4.0 horse" was a marvel of speed, but this has become antiquated. The New York World in a recent issue publishes a list of about 700 horses which liavo made a trot- ting record of Jt) and better du- ring the past season, giving tho sires and previous record. This would show a great improvement in American horses. Ed Hoehn, supeiintedcnt of Hertweck, Baltzer 6c Cn's paint shop, is an artist of very rare merit, and as a sign painter can- - not be excelled in tho United j sStatCS, and we mean exactly what jwe sny. Ho made the Courier a Christmas present of new sign, which is on exhibition in front of ipost-ofiic- e, and wo challenge in- spection of tho work as a proof of tho merit we claim for him. :IIilory Jones, colored, charg- ed vith stealing twenty-fiv- e dol- lars, on his wedding night, in Ful- ton, was arrested by otlicer Bris-endin- e, only a few moments bt-for- e) the consummation of the marriage ceremony, and brought to Hickman, Wednesday, and in- carcerated in the county jail. His fiuncr, flcttie r irson, true to her plighted love, accompanied him to tho jail, but were kindly permitted to go by the court-hous- e, where his Honor, Judge Murrell, nnited them in tho holy bonds of wed lock. The question of civil rights, as it affects theatres, was decided by the supremo court of Iowa tho other day. Tho point before the court was upon tho refusal to ad- mit a colored man to a theatre. Upon this point the lower court and the supremo court both held that the plaintiff had no legal right to enter the theatre, the manager having refused to accept the ad- mission price-Loui- s Pasteur, the French dis coverer of the ancient India prac- tice of inoculation as a remedy for rabies, is a native of Dole, in the department of Jura, France, and is in his GOth year. He is not & physician but a chemist of local distinction, and ono whoso name is likely to go down to posterity with. Haivey, Jenner and other eminent discoverers of matters of interest to life and health. If this congress wants to enact ny legislation regardiug war mat ters, it certainly ought to be pretty competent tor tue purpose. Ot the 400 members of house and sen- ate, 160 ufit into the late war." There are in tho house and senate ninety ex-Uni- on soldiers and sev enty warriors. It is rumored that Queen Vic- toria is to abdicate. When tho children of to-da- y aro beginning to pick gray hairs out of their .heads the same rumor will come 'irayly skipping along by cable. The good old lady is not built ou the abdicating plan. Chicago News. Bbadstbeet's for the week re- ports the dulluess in wholesale trade common to the season. About the only notable exception is St. Louis, where dry goods movements have been full and fir. Therr are only 150 applicants lfor the office of Be venue A cent Kentucky. The entertainment riven Mon- day night, by the pupils of Cen- tral Academy, under the direction of Miss Adello Allen, was one round of praise and applause well deserved, from the beginning to the ending of the programme! Every child and person engaged deserves the highest compliment, and each act and piece was as near perfect as it could well be. We are proud of the school, proud of the teachers, and proud of each pupil. The operetta of Genevieve at City Hall, Tuesday night, as the closing exercises of Miss Daisy Castleman's music sclTool, under the direction of that accomplished young uuiy, was a mgniy crcdita hie and eniovablo noi-formo- iLittlo Miss Lalla Kuucrr has a swp,ct' phtintive oice, well suited to the personation of Genevieve. and sang her part exceedingly well, while Miss Jessie Leo Gar- rett as Isadore, shows good culti- vation, winning applause and ad- miration throughout. Tho other characters in the operetta as rep- resented by Misses Carrie May Garrett, Lizzie Goalder, Ethel Parker, Maggie Warren and Cora Underwood, were well rendered and descrvo high complimeut. The orchestral music, under the leadership of Mr. J. II. Millet, as well ns on Monday night, was the best wo ever heard in Hickman. Tho instrumental performance of Miss Bertie Bullard, and vocali- zation by Mr. George Bullard were fine, and added much to the pleas ure ot tue evening.

Great excitement lias been caused in the vicinity of Paris Tex., by tiie remarkable recovery of Mr J. E. Corley, who wan so helpless he could not turn in bd, or raise his head; everybody said he was dying of Consumption. A trial bottle of Dr. King's Xew Discovery was sent him. Finding relief, lie bought a large bottle and i box of Dr. KiiiR'i Xew Life Pills; by the time he had taken two hoses of Pills and two bottles of the Dicoveryi &c was well and had gained in flerh thirty-si- x pounds.

The House Democratic caucus last evening was called to order by Hon. J. Stoddard Johnson, who explained that in the absence of other authority ho had taken the liberty of suggesting the time and place of the caucus. T. J. MeElrath, of Carroll, was elected Chairman, and E. Polk Johnson, Green R. Kellar and Willis Riugo, Secretaries. A res- olution by I). A. Neale was adopt- ed providing that candidates for House oflices bo nominated in the order in which they are elected by law, and that in voting for can- didates the party receiving tho smallest number of votes on tho third ballot shall be dropped, this to continue till a nomination is reached.

This unpleasantness grew out of tho publication of the names of the entire committee, with the amount of money sub- scribed by each to the fund, 1 pub- lication which disclosed the fact that several hundred of the com- mittee who have so constantly ap- pealed to tho public for subscrip- tions have not expended one dol- lar themselves.

Don't write it 1SS5.

City election Monday.A happy Now Year to vou

all--Ilick man merchants arc jubi- -

lant over their unprecedented,good holiday trade.

Mrs Press Berry, of Ilirkinan !

county, caught her clotiiiug on firefrom u grate, and was burned todeath.

We are requested to an-nounce that Elder William Beltwill preach at Poplar Grove, nextSunday, at the usual hour.

The OouEinu neglects toprint the names of Hickman ladieswho will recivo New Year callsto-da- y, because the list is not full,and we don't desire to show par-tiality.

Two colored men, Winstonsby name, got to projecting with apistol, Christmas day, at Iieid'smill, and one accidentally shot theother in the jaw. Wouud is notfatal.

Mr. Ben. J. ITertwcclc andMiss E. M. Piggott, both of Hick-man, were married on tho 27th.Congratulations of numerousfriends are extended, and manywishes for a long, useful, prosper-ous and happy life.

The Kentncky Legislature as-sembled Wednesday. The Demo-crats of each Houae met in cau-cus, but adjourned without efl'cct-m- g

an organization. Tho pro-gramme was to organize Wednes-day morning, but the CouKicnhas no later news.

Among the coming candidatOBwe hear the name of Willis F.Boffe, of tho Cayce precinct,pretty authoritatively mentionedas a candidate for County Asses-sor. He is a clever man, compe-tent for the place, an old citizen,and would make a good assessorif elected.

The announcement of thedeath of Hon. James E. Bailey ofUlarksville, which occurred at hisresidence Tuesday morning at7 :45 o'clock, will awaken a mourn-ful feeling in the breast of everyTennesscan who esteems personalworth, and sets a value on eminenttalents conscientiously devotedto the welfare of the State.

We can all remember when a"2:4.0 horse" was a marvel of speed,but this has become antiquated.The New York World in a recentissue publishes a list of about 700horses which liavo made a trot-ting record of Jt) and better du-ring the past season, giving thosires and previous record. Thiswould show a great improvementin American horses.

Ed Hoehn, supeiintedcnt ofHertweck, Baltzer 6c Cn's paintshop, is an artist of very raremerit, and as a sign painter can- -

not be excelled in tho United j

sStatCS, and we mean exactly whatjwe sny. Ho made the Couriera Christmas present of new sign,which is on exhibition in front of

ipost-ofiic- e, and wo challenge in-

spection of tho work as a proofof tho merit we claim for him.

:IIilory Jones, colored, charg-ed vith stealing twenty-fiv- e dol-

lars, on his wedding night, in Ful-ton, was arrested by otlicer Bris-endin- e,

only a few moments bt-for- e)

the consummation of themarriage ceremony, and broughtto Hickman, Wednesday, and in-

carcerated in the county jail. Hisfiuncr, flcttie r irson, true to herplighted love, accompanied him totho jail, but were kindly permittedto go by the court-hous-e, wherehis Honor, Judge Murrell, nnitedthem in tho holy bonds of wedlock.

The question of civil rights, asit affects theatres, was decided bythe supremo court of Iowa thoother day. Tho point before thecourt was upon tho refusal to ad-

mit a colored man to a theatre.Upon this point the lower courtand the supremo court both heldthat the plaintiff had no legal rightto enter the theatre, the managerhaving refused to accept the ad-

mission price-Loui- s

Pasteur, the French discoverer of the ancient India prac-tice of inoculation as a remedyfor rabies, is a native of Dole, inthe department of Jura, France,and is in his GOth year. He is not& physician but a chemist of localdistinction, and ono whoso nameis likely to go down to posteritywith. Haivey, Jenner and othereminent discoverers of matters ofinterest to life and health.

If this congress wants to enactny legislation regardiug war mat

ters, it certainly ought to be prettycompetent tor tue purpose. Otthe 400 members of house and sen-ate, 160 ufit into the late war."There are in tho house and senateninety ex-Uni- on soldiers and seventy warriors.

It is rumored that Queen Vic-toria is to abdicate. When thochildren of to-da- y aro beginningto pick gray hairs out of their

.heads the same rumor will come'irayly skipping along by cable.The good old lady is not built outhe abdicating plan. ChicagoNews.

The entertainment riven Mon-day night, by the pupils of Cen-tral Academy, under the directionof Miss Adello Allen, was oneround of praise and applausewell deserved, from the beginningto the ending of the programme!Every child and person engageddeserves the highest compliment,and each act and piece was as nearperfect as it could well be. Weare proud of the school, proud ofthe teachers, and proud of eachpupil.

The operetta of Genevieve atCity Hall, Tuesday night, as theclosing exercises of Miss DaisyCastleman's music sclTool, underthe direction of that accomplishedyoung uuiy, was a mgniy crcditahie and eniovablo noi-formo-

iLittlo Miss Lalla Kuucrr has aswp,ct' phtintive oice, well suitedto the personation of Genevieve.and sang her part exceedinglywell, while Miss Jessie Leo Gar-rett as Isadore, shows good culti-vation, winning applause and ad-miration throughout. Tho othercharacters in the operetta as rep-resented by Misses Carrie MayGarrett, Lizzie Goalder, EthelParker, Maggie Warren and CoraUnderwood, were well renderedand descrvo high complimeut.The orchestral music, under theleadership of Mr. J. II. Millet, aswell ns on Monday night, was thebest wo ever heard in Hickman.Tho instrumental performance ofMiss Bertie Bullard, and vocali-zation by Mr. George Bullard werefine, and added much to the pleasure ot tue evening.

Great excitement lias been caused in thevicinity of Paris Tex., by tiie remarkablerecovery of Mr J. E.

London, Dec. 29. Reportshave been received here from areliable sourcePboth in St. Peters-burg and Vienna, to the effect thatat both these capitals the feelingis growinjr that war between Rus-sia and Austria, over the Balkandispute, is almost unavoidable.Active war preparations by bothcountries have been going on eversince the outbreak of hostilitiesbetween Servia and Bulgatia, andtho Russian and Austrain armiesaro being actively and secretlyarming in anticipation of war,Much color is given to these reports by heavv orders for storesand ammunitions of war placed byagents of the Russian and Austrian governments in this city.

The ISrunt 3aia;iEnersi.There is a bad fooling among

tho members of tho memorialcommittee appointed to raise themillion-dolla- r Grant monumentfund. This unpleasantness grewout of tho publication of thenames of the entire committee,with the amount of money sub-scribed by each to the fund, 1 pub-lication which disclosed the factthat several hundred of the com-mittee who have so constantly ap-pealed to tho public for subscrip-tions have not expended one dol-lar themselves.

Grant, McClellan, Hendricks,Alfonso, Yanderbilt all have diedduring the last five months. Deathis no respecter of greatness andour ranks aro being rapidly thinn-ed.

The Indianapolis Journal thinksKentucky deserves to bo calledtho "mother of Speakers," ffbeauseit has been honored with the ofliceeleven times.

The Rothchilds estates of Em',land are estimated at one billiondollars, or five times as great asum as Yanderbilt leaves. A thou-sand million dollars!
