Chattanooga, Tenn., Juno 12.-A fatal collision occurred on tho Nashvillo, Chat tanooga and St. Louis railroad this after noon between Hooker and Summit, two small stations about twolvo miles from this city. Four mon wero killed and about fifteen others, moro or less, seri ously Injured. Possibly two or three of tho wounded will die from tho offects of thoir injuries. Tho story of tho wreck, as told by pas Bongors on tho mail train, is a thrilling ono, as thoy wero ablo tn soo tho ap proaching disaster. On account of tho position of tho track, thoro being a don ?lo reverso curve at tho place of tho wreck, tho passengers wore ablo to soo from the side of the cars the approach ing accommodation train. Thoy thought it morely a passing of regular trains and did not need tho warning until tho crash carno, and it was too lato to holp them selves. Tho accommodation train, being the lighter ono, was entirely telescoped, tho ponderous machinery of tho fast train plowing its way through tho cars and splintering them into kindling wood. Both engines had their position reversed and wero thrown 40 yards from tho tracks. None of tho passengers wero soriously injured. Of what does a bad tasto in your mouth remind you?

Farming has been pushed rapidly for tb? past two weeks in this community. Corn is looking well. Cotton looks bet ter than in the early sining. Small grain crops aro very light.

They spent tho night with their mother, who is in her 00th year. Mrs. (i. K. Pike has been sick for two WAoks. She is some bettor. Mr. K. T. Whltmiro is still on tho sick list. Mr. J. S.

Now Peep F.yo, of Jocassce: All of tho people inijocasseo know that Mr. Drown had bis cattle all belled, but he is ahead of his neighbors, for he has his farm belled and the most of his business, yes, and the cattish in Whitewater river, for all we know, and they are ringing until they are heard all over the State. Fred Allen, 23-months-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Wily Allen, of this place, died at their home S.unlay afternoon at 5 o'clock. Well, Mr. Cook, I guess you think Mack Perry bas gone to Georgia or some where else. 1 have been to Georgia, and, by chance, I went, up tho Callas moun tain-that good road you read about. I see that it lias cost Oconeo some money to dig thc new road up this mountain, and, tho best that I can seo, thoro is as much travel on tho old road as tho new. I can't seo any improvement on the grad*?. I was told by reliable parties in Georgia that they had rather travel tho old road if it was worked out. This don't look like improving Oeonee to mo, or tho way to get out of debt, either. One of the County Hoard came up here to let out a job on the road. One man offered to do the work for $8. Ile told him if he couldn't get it done cheaper than that he would do it himself. In a si. ut time another man secured the same job of work, from the same man. for twico tho amount. Don't you think he was electioneering? Como with us to tho Tanyard bridge. There they let the contract to build tho road to tho new bridge and level the foundation. This was let to the lowest responsible bidder. Messrs. Hogers secured tho contract for $tH). I am relia bly informed that the job cost Mr. Hogers a few cents over $12. This was a fine job for the man that got it, but what for Oconeo ? Wo will not say anything about some more important matters, for these poor fellows already have their backs skinned. Wo have been living in hopo for a change in this road law and so on, anil I guess it is at the door, from the article 1 read in last week's Coi 3r. Wo will have no moro uso for th convicts. These machines will do tho work in some cool, sandy Hat, just like tho ono Oconeo had some years ago. It went just like lots of Oconco's other iuonoy. I foar these things will go the same way-nobody knows where. The Courier will please Whisper tho small sum paid for this out fit. Mack Perry. [Hoad machines, engines and tho road plows and extra points cost $2,27'), and the county is given the privilege of pay ing for them by December 81, 1904.
