"a., an nerond rlnss mall matter.
To the Public.
I think It proper and cxpt'dlont for
mo to say a fow words about the affairs
of the Star Glass Company.
Our company was organized Duo. Itlh,
1H!I!, and received its charter, Dec. 2 1st,
1S9!.
The finances were established upon
what was believed at Ilia time to be n
solid foundation and work was bogim at
onco upon tho erection of tho plant.
At n lator dato it developed that a laree
portion of this monuy was not available
and It devolved upon mo to rts-arrauo
tho finances of the company.
I made an effort to do this and finally
succeeded in doing so with New York
parties, but the conditions they Imposed
wuro not entirely to my liking. I then
returned to Hc'ynoldsvillt! and I have
It r eat pleasure in announcing to thu
pKiplo that thu following named gi'n
eleman have entered tho company as
stockholders, thus becoming Identified
directly with the management of rim
affairs of tho corporation, to wit:
W. H. Alexander, J. W. r'oust, Thos.
C. McKntoer, Smith M. McCrelght.
H. Alex. Slokc, C H. Hall. Jacob
Uoiblo, II. C. Doible, .1. J. Sutler,
A. T. McCluro. F. I). Smith, (1. M.
McDonald, Chas. A. Herpel, Henry
Herpol.
On February 3rd a mortgage was
placed upon tho property of the com
pany for 70,(HK. to be issued in the
form of 10-year 6 per cent bonds, tho
intention being to issue these bonds to
such an amount as would complete tho
plant. This mortgage has been re
duced to $40,000 and the full amount
will bo sold. These bonds will form u
gilt-edged Beeurity bearing (I per cent
interest, net, the company paying all
taxes. Tho interest is payable on the
first of January and July in each year.
Bonds will bo issued in any desired
amount.
A contract 1ms buen closed with tho
New York Olnss Company of Now York
under which thoy purchase tho entire
output of glass of our factory until tho
close of the season of VMrZ, paying the
ruling market prico therefor In cash.
This is a very advantageous contract
and puts our company upon a solid foun
dation and assures the successful man
agement of the business.
I have now explained In full the cir
cumstances and conditions of our com
pany and I trust the contldence will be
appreciated. We havo a good business
established. It only remains for those
of our citizens who have monoy for
which they are seeking an investment
to take our bonds,-which all must ad
mit have a good value under tho new
arrangement. We offer them freely
and 1 shall call upon you in person dur
the next fow weeks seeking the invest
ment of your money.
Thanking tho people for the confi
dence reposed in me In tho past and
assuring you that it will homy endeavor
to conduct the business allaii s of tho
companies with which I am connected
in such a manner as to merit Its oontin
.iianco, lam, Respectfully,

Great, Grand Sprin;
Opening.

the finest stock of
CLOTHING,
Hats and Furnishing Goods
that has ever been displayed, all bought before
the big advance in prices, which we are
giving our patrons the benefit of.
Coroner's Inquests.
Hon. John AV. Hood, presidont judge
of the several courts of Jotiorson county,
Hied an opinion last week in the matter
of holding an inquest when a dead body
is found or an accidental doath occurs,
and as it is of interest to the public in
general, wo publish part of Judge Reed's
opinion, as follows:
"Tho finding of a dead body, or an ac
cidental death, is always the subject of
comment and of more or loss excitemont
in the oommunity, but it is useless to
hold un inquest merely as an official
declaration of the fuct that a death has
occurred, and where there is no reason
14 believe and no expectation of fixing
responsibility for such death on anyone,
an Inquest should not be hold. This
court Is not disposed to discourago the
holding of an inquest in any cuso where
there is a reasonable ground to suspect
that the deceased has Ixson feloniously
destroyed, or that thu death has been
chargeable to the criminal neligenco of
another, nut it is desirable that no in
quest shall bo held as a mere matter of
form, and we therefore take this occa
sion to call attention to the Act of As
sembly and to emphasize tho fuct
thut a preliminary investigation should
be made In the first instance, and whero
the surrounding facta do not show vio
lence or disclose any reason for suppos
ing that death was caused feloniously
or by criminal negligence, no jury
should be summoned or inquest held.
In that case the promtr certificate can
be mado by the officer investigating,
and thereupon his fee and mileage will
be puld. When tho preliminary In
vestigation, however, reveals a reason
able ground for suspecting that death
resulted from Borne criminal act or omis
sion, then an inquest should follow, and
the investigation should be made as
thorough and complete as possible."
