Dr. Caldwell, jof Blacksburg, lias charge of the ca*c and thinks there is some jchance for the hoy's recovery, j Young Westmoreland wop arrosted on Saturday and ip held in Rlaoksburg to await results of tlio knife cut ho inflicted upon J his school mate. The trouble arose from some of Alex. Westmoreland's misbehaviour in the I srhool room for which the tenchj or cave him a whipping.

Mr. and Mrs. Murtin'e retideno* is no more known as the home of ' (he bachelors of Hickory Grove. I If is now closed to bachelors und II the traveling men. 'Ihe change I j look place the last days of De I ceinher, when the bachelors bid | good bye to the Martin House stepstone and sought shelter elsewhere. Mr. and Mrs. Martin bntii regretted being compelled ? to turn the bachelors out but owing to the ill health of Mrs. Martin and not being able to j secure the regular service of a competent conk they felt forced under the circumstances to make the change. Fortunately, however, Mr. S. W. Mitchell had heen working almost day and night to I open iiio large and commodious house near the depot for the accommodation of the resident , boarders and transient travel as well. So the bachelos are now domiciled in the Mitchell House and there is room for more yet but, wo think, they ull are think , ing seriously of opening a board ing house of their own in the . near future capacitated to accommodate two persons provided f llAV Plfi (Tt ft \fiwU Q t fivm j pathize and consent to co operate j with them. We believe that the bachelors would almost be willing ! for No. 2 to wear the breeches awhile at least and be the one of I the two. So look out you buchelor (gentlemen and try to get homes of your own and quit this way of i being buffeted about by every j change in the atmosphere of the ' j domestic and culinary department (of hoarding houses. Nevertheless ' | the north end of Peachtree street can now boast of having quite a respectable and fine looking sot ( a. fru n in that vicinity of Hickory tirovo where owls, bats, hawks and stray dogs will no longer be {u pest in tliat quarter of towu, at j least until bachelors get homes of ! their own, and he bo be boss, too. We reckon we had just us well j say it that v-av to manage it. Now | young inuy u you wish to become ilio MisH No. 2 intended to vetir iho brcechea (only for a 1 i11! while) and ho (he one of the two now ia your time, apeak or for evor nftei hold your peace, for ' bachelors don't believe in any I faolitdiiioRA in this matter.
