of opinion that county will too The mountain counties of East Tennessee will probably go wet The colored vote in West Tennessee will be against the amendment I think the general result there will be favorable to the amendment All the Middle Tennessee countiee will be for the amendment except Davidson and ppssibly One or two others" The Louisville Times of yesterday says: The local members of the executive committee of the National Protective Association met yesterday afternoon and issued a call for the second annual convention of the association The convention will be held in Cincinnati on September I3th and five thousand circular invitations will be sent put today over the country to liquor men asking their attendance The special object of the meeting will be the consideration of the fight against prohibition in Tennessee Arrangements have been made to have the state stumped by precinctsand the advantages gained by the recent fights in Texas and Michigan will be pushed to the farthest extent The liquor men are confident of winning the light but admit that the contest will be a close one One of their methods has been to employ agents to examine into the workings of prohibitory laws in such states as have adopted thorn and gather statistics as to drunkenness smuggling and other crimes caused by liquor as compared to states where there are no sumptuary laws It is likely that several speakers will go down from Kentucky ta Tennessee Among them will be Messrs John Atherton Thomas Sherley and Gilicure of this City CHATTANOOGA August ---Iriatural gas has been struck at the Logan well and the Commercial of today states that the supply will be large enough to run every manufacturing establighment in the city and supply light for 1000000 people The well was plugged seven times before the flow could be stopped When the owners of the well discovered that gas had been found the strictest secrecy was enjoined and one of the sure and certain indications of the discovery of gas is seen in the fact that a number of citizens have secured options on every foot of land that could be had in Hill City or in the vicinity of the gas well Chattanooga is completely upset by the publication this morning in the Commercial of the news tha't gas had been found at Logan's well which is located on the Suck three miles below the city on the river Boring has been going on there for three months and a depth of 935 feet was reached Friday It was discovered that day and work was abandoned After boring the well was plugged and a seventeen-ton hammer drove in the plug before it stayed The matter leaked out last night through a man who suspected something was up by numerous options being given by neighbors and he investigated The Commercial paid him 25 for the exclusive information and so got in a big scoop To-day options have been given and sold by hundreds the property mainly being in Hill City A great boom is expected Many still discredit the report but Linn a member of the Company has admitted the truth of the facts published and has been taking options all morning Other members now deny the report It is known however that these six gentlemen composing the company namely: 411' Linn Samuel Blair CD Isbaster Hughes Giles MLelewellyn and Mr Logan have secured leases to the entire strip of Bind lying between the Tennessee river and Walden's ridge for a distance of five miles Chattanooga has been praying loudly for natural gas and her foremost citizens now say that her future is no longer she must at once step to a foremost position among southern cities The Commercial issued at noon an extra of four pages containing full particulars of the gas find which have set the town wild The edition of 1500 copies was quickly exhausted CHCAGO August 10--Time5 Adrian Mich special ERys: No rains have fallen here since the early part of June and the drouth is becoming disastrous Not only have crops been affected seriously but farmers are now apprehensive of fires Last evening a man driving by Charles Calbertaon's near Tecumseh threw a lighted cigar by the roadside The grass ignited and all of Culbertson's farm buildings and stacks with a quantity of fence were burned Lakes in the western part of the county which never fluctuated but a few inches are lowered two feet by continued evaporation is ILLINOIS CHICAGO August Elgin Ill' special says: A newspaper man who has just completed a tour of this Kane county reports that he found every evidence of a-coining milk tam-Me the reault of the great drought The seriotoness of a milk famine can be imagined from the fact that one milk traid-which reaches Chicago at 10 a carries from this county daily upward of twenty car-loads of 250 cans each eight gallons to the can Already pasturage is dead above the ground and unleaS there is rain within two weeks the roots will be dried and reseeding will be neceseary Around Elgin nothing green is left except leaves on trees and they are falling Mr Pemblettm of the St Charles creamery the largest in the county said that he has dropped from his ordinary daily receipta of 35000 to 65- 000 pounds of milk Said Mr Lake a leading dairyman of Waco: "The supply of milk under the existing circumstances is rapidly lessening and will so continue until rain comets If Chicago dealers come to the rescue by advancing prices over oontract rates dairymen will be able to purchase feed from other statea and thus increase again the milk supply I am preparing to ship feed for my cattle from Iowa We can have shelled corn deivered from there at 3ac oats 30c bran $13 middlings $14 Milk suppliers who have the cash will adopt this plan Those who have not will feed from local purchases as long as possible and then sell their cattle as many of the poorer ones have already done You are not probably aware that this means absolute want Hundreds of farmers in this county have no income except from milk sales They raise no grain save such as is used incaring for the cows They sell no butter but turn everything into milk A short continuation of this drought then means to them want or hunger MOST PERFECT MADE Prepared with strict

were entertained for a few drops in places elsewhere To-day's telegrams contain the information that not a particle of the longed-for rain has descended in all the immense stretch of territory Added
