there was a branch of the Havana Lottery

about eight dollars. He was Familiarity ac-
costed as captain" on the street by a man
whose personal appearance he remembered
with difficulty, ana who, by showing a
lucky ticket calling for prize in the aha
vana Lottery" induced him to go to the
''otiice." After obtaining copy of the

accompanied the confidence man, and was
led into well known sporting house. The
first thing he saw after entering was huge
placard displaying the inscription, "Ha-
vana Lottery" He had the pleasure of
seeing his new friends ticket cashed by
the clerk, and then fell to investing in
tickets until he was out about eight dollars,
which had passed from his pocket into the
Golfers of the lottery men. At the eight
dollar point, he suddenly took in the situa-
ton, briefly denounced the ''whOle capoO-

Lebanon Herald, May %.
A public meeting of the citizens of Leb-
anon and vicinity convened at the Court
house, at o'clock p. NJ, last Saturday, to
take the initlatOry steps towards the con-
struction of Geographic line from Leb-
anon to Nashville.
Judge II. l.. Caruthers was called to the
chair, and II. Y. Riddle was appointed
Secretary.
Judge Caruthers explained the object of
the meeting, and Prof. Toney made state
ment of the probable cost of the enterprise,
from which it appears that the entire cost
would be about $1,000, of which the Ten
nessee and Paaifc Railroad Company
would assume, in the way of stock, $50,
leaving $3.50 to be raised by the citizens of
Lebanon and of the county along the line.
Stock has been taken to the amount of
1928, and Prof. Toney, A. B. Martin, Z. L.
Golladay and II. Y. Riddle were appointed
a committee to solicit and procure the
stock required, during the coming week,
and to make the necessary arrangements
with the railroad company.
Every stakeholder was earnestly request
ed to take an active part in securing the
requisite stock.
The meeting adjourned to Saturday next,
at O'Clock p. NJ, when permanent or
ganization Of the Telegraph Company will
be effected.

The West Tennessee Iasane Asylum
Complication.

A report was received by the Governor
Yesterday. from the Board of Directors ap-
pointed to select a site for the West Ten
nessee Insane Asylum, in which they take
the position that the rejection of the Hum
boldt site exhausts the powers vested IN the
Board and recommend that the matter be
referred back to the Legislature for action.
II is not. however, probable that the Gov
ernor will accept this view, as, under the
act, the appropriation would lapse before
the meeting of the Legislature.

The Rev. William II. Whitsett, one of
the Professors in the Southern Baptist
Theological Seminary, located at Greene
vile, 5. c., has placed upon our table a
catalogue of the fifteenth session of that in
stitutiOn. Its Faculty is said to be one of
the ablest in the United States. There
were sixty-six students in attendance last
session. No charge is made for tuition;
and, as the endowment fund was swept
away by the war, pecuHiary aid is needed for
its sustenance, Prot. Whitsett was born
and brought up, near Nashville, and has a
large and respectable connection. He is
man of ability and integrity, and very
highly esteemed in this community. Dur
ing vacation he will canvass portion Of
the States Of Tennessee and Georgia, on
behalf of this excellent 'sSchool of the
Prophets" We wish him much success in
his laudable undertaking.
