Mr. F. Simington has at last suc-
ceeded in buying up all the stock of
?tbe Seaton Grocer company. He
pow claims to have an incorporated
Eg'
*• institution, paid up capital of $113.
He calculates to run the entire busi-
ness with the assistance of his son
•Henry.
j Mr. D, W. Tomlinson having sold
big interest in the Seaton Grocer
, * company will soon remoye to Cy-
done, where he expects to establish,
in connection with a biscuit factory,
» goose and dtick ranch, will also do
a little farming on the side for exer-
‘cise and pleasure. We compliment
Mr. Tomlinson for his energy and
f
teel sure of his success.
We are glad to state that Miss
Bessie Vickers is recovering from a
siege of slow fever. Miss Bessie is
one of Seaton’s most popular and
accomplished young ladies. Her
absence has been keenly felt by her
many friends in society circles for
the past few weeks.
Mrs. C. Douglas, accompanied by
Miss Cook, drove to Belton last
Friday on business.
Mr. Tom Barnes, from Pendleton-
ville, made a flying visit to Seaton
last week. He seemed to look with
eager anxiety one of Seaton’s Belles.
Mr. Barnes lived here formerly and
has a host of friends in this vacmity.

Mr. Henry Cook has been making
some improvements about his place
recently. The boys think they
enow what this indicates, but they
don’t. Mr. Cook is an up to date
farmer and likes to see tenants sup-
plied with the necessities and luxur
ies of life as well as himself.
Someone asks me every day about
Seaton’s prosperity. Will say it is
still booming. We learned recently
that this was the cause of Mr.
Hugene Campbell’s discontinuing
business at Campbellsvill. We have
often known men to quit business
on this account and give some less
fortunate fellow a show.
As a proof of this prosperity we
refer you to Mr. Carl Murrell, who
is buying a suit of clothes on the in-
stallment plan, that is, he gets one
jlece at a time. He has already
taken out a pair of suspenders and
calculates to get a hat next week if
it don’t rain.
Seaton chicken fighters are be- j
coming quite numerous. Jt is said
we will have a ten days chicken
fight on the 17th and 18th of De-
cember. The cock Dit will be con-
structed on the corner of Main and
Broadway. All preachers, church,
members and everybody invited.
Brother Harris preached at Sea-
ton school house last Sunday cycl-
ing. We are glad that the confer
once saw fit to return him to this,
circuit. He is a very earnest, con-
scientious man, also a good and
interesting talker. His regular ap-
pointment is every fourth Sunday
evening at 3 o’clock. Chicken
fighters and everybody invited.

those who do not and cannot attend
services at our churches. This
work is greatly needed and these
gentlemen cordially extend an invi-
tation to everyone to come and help
them in the great work of bringing
lost souls to the feet of Jesus. Thev
desire the hearty co-operation of
every church in the city in this
gret^t work. The services are as-
signed for Tuesday night, Thursday
night and Saturday night through
each week, and there will be two
services on Sunday, viz, 11 a. m.
and 7:30 p, m. As soon as it can be
arranged they will organize a Sun-
day school, which service will be
held at 3 p. m.

Temple City Mission.
Last Tuesday night the first serv-
ice was held at the Temple City
Mission halL, No. 35, (up stairs) ou
Main street. This mission has re-
cently been established for the pro-
motion of good morals and the re-
ligious betterment of our city. The
work was opened by W. W. Adams
and Rev. W. M. Adams, and will be
run entirely on a missionary and
rescue line for the purpose of
reaching and bringing to Christ
Mr. O. E. Shipp is the recipient
of a notice tacked up on one of his
rent places warning renters to
avoid money rents on the penalty of
having the houses and barns
burned, water poised and the land
sown in Johnson grass. The place
had already been rented for money
rent and Mr. Shipp feels sure that
the object of the party was to in-
timidate the renter and cause him
to abandon the place. Be this as it
may it shows the spirit that is ani-
mating some of our people to be an-
tagouystic to freedom. Here were
two men that had come to an agree-
ment entirely satisfactory to both,
there was nothing compulsory in
the act on elthei side, and yet there
is a third party who proposes* by
threats of injury to person and
property to depriye these men of
exercising the privileges accorded
by our constitution and laws. Can
anyone give to such a man a milder
name than anarchist? Is there to
day a spirit abroad more subversive
of the liberties of the people? Could
any greater danger menace our
freedom? So long as men can be
found who will agree to do certain
things of their own volition that
long should they be permitted to
exercise the privilege, providing
always the act is legitimate.
