Hon. I.. 1). Rinehart, o Union, Ore
gon, who ?hipied about 175 horse here
from Oregon over three month? ago, has
nearly closed out hi? Oregon stock and
; expects to leave for his home in a few
, day. Hie stay here has been prolonged
, on account of being no market for
i horses ami encii hard times for money.
i Mr. Rinehart will take threw fine young
. tacks back to Oregon, also five of the
! best bred young stallions in Tennessee
One is the famous saddle stallion, Bob
Hal, Jr., of Marshall county, lie is a
model horse, five vears old, with flno
form and style, and is closely relnted to
Brown Hal, Hal Pointer, Buy Tom and
many of the greatest speed horsos of the
present day. He also has Uugg C, two
years old, raised in Marshall county by
McAdains brothers. He is one of tho
finest bred colts in Tennesee, leing a
cross between Tom Hal, Bay Tom and
Battler Brooks. He carried oil' tho blue
ribbon at the Marshal countv lair for
three successive years, which is surely a
great recconuneiidatiou for any colt, He
also has Bill Harrison, a fine black, four
years old, raised by Harrison Bros, and
sold to Jim Knight at three years old for
$000. He is a model combination horse,
siied by King Fisherman, with a record
of 2: 34; his dam was Buelah, by Sun
shine, a mare that has carried many a
blue ribbon in the saddle ring in this
county. He also has Koko Wilkes, a
lino young, seal brown, three year old
stallion, raised by E. A. Collins, of Milan
Tennesee, and sold to Z. T. Long, of
Kentucky, for $350 at a ycarling,and sold
by him to J. M. Wilburn of this county.
He was sired by .Milan Wilkes, he by
George Wilkes, the great producer of so
much speed; his first dam by Stonewall
Denmark, second dam Ebria Lexington.
It is concede here that Mr. Kinelnirt
has as good a selection of good blooded
stock as has ever left tho state. And
while Tennessee loses a fine selection of
young blooded stock, Oregon may justly
feel proud of such valuable addition of
blooded stock.
Mr. Rinehart expects to return next
summer to close up his unsettled busi
ness here. He has made many warm
friends here who will be glad to welcome
him back. Murf'reysboro Free Press.

GHASTLY DISCOVERY.
TB skeleton Ramalns of Tart ilmmtA
Sflajs FMnd Knr Mtttve.
While Frank Snyder, a 11-yenr-old
boy, was driving cm across an unoccti
piixl field almut ftir miles U-low Milton
few days ago, he saw the skull of a
human skeleton which had recently
been uncovered by the winds blowing
the dirt away from it. He reported the
discovery to some Milton inople, who
immediately went in search of the rel
icts, and while hunting for the one the
boy had found, they discovered two
more that had been unearthed in the
same way. The peculiar feature of this
ghastly tind is that they were nearly
lutlfumtle apart. No signs of murder
or foul play are visible upon any parts
of the skeletons, so far as has yet lieen
ascertained. One of the skulls ami some
other parts of the frame were brought to
.Milton, and examined by a skilled phy
sician, who pronounces it that of a white
female of mature age. The bodies were
evidently only buried a foot or t wo be
neath the surface. Who these unfor
tunates were is shrouded in unfathom
able mystery, and how long they have
lain tho recording angel alone can tell.
