W. c. r. u. Convention

w. c. r. u. Convention
The eighth annual convention of
the w. G. T. u, Of Tennessee, was
held at TullahOma, October 20, 80
and 81. The sessions were held in
the M. F.. Church, which was beau.
tifully decorated for the occasion.
The convention was most cordially
received and Hospitality entertained
by the good people CT Tullahoma.
Thirty-seven delegates were in at
tendance, representing paid up
membership of five hundred in the
state.
The meetings of the convention
were enthusiastic, and a most ex.
cellent spirit prevailed throughout.
The reports of Superintendent Of
Departments showed much good
work done the past year. The re-
port on Communion Wine by Mrs.
T. P. Holman, Of Fayetteville, and
that on Sunday School Work by
Mrs. A. A. Gibson, of Athens, were
especially interesting. Mrs. Hol-
man is tireless in her efforts to in
duce churches to use unfermented
wine for communion purposes, and
urges w. G. T. U. ladies everywhere
to take up the subject. 1t is not
possible, she says, to get State and
National Prohibition till the Lords
people wash their hands of this
iniquity. There are $4,000 gallons
of intoxicating drink used every
year in the United States for com.
munion purposes.
Mrs. Gibson urged the need Of
special temperance instruction In
the Sunday School because of the
need of fighting intemperance
always, everywhere; and because
in the Sunday School we have an
opportunity to reach many children
who cannot be reached In any
other way " s..s.~...a..s.s.--.-,
The Presidents annual address,
delivered on the evening of the
3Oth, was listened to by large and
appreciative audience.
Mrs. T. P. Holman read very
interesting and instructive paper
on "The Tobacco Habit" giving
facts which show conclusively to.
tacco in every form to be injurious
and which ought to be sufficient tc
induce every lover of the weed tc
desist from it's use. She said: "At
Harvard no boy using tobacco has
graduated al head of his class fol
fifty years. All that is good in g
man who uses tobacco would be
many degrees better if he would
leave off the tobacco" y
The convention reaffirmed it,
loyalty to the National w. G. T. U.
declared against license high OF
low, promised its influence to tina,
party whose platform should con
tain the best embodiment of oul
principles, and urged on its mem
bers diligent study of the subject
of equal political representation fol
men and women, and of all othel
subjects concerning the advance
ment of woman.
A Franchise department wa
added to those previously taken vi
by the State Union. The State Off
GERS were all reelected. A vigor
Gus effort will be made to keel
State organizers in the field; thu
outlook Is very encouraging.
The last evening of the conven
ton, our honored President, Lid
Meriwether, addressed a crowded
house. Her address, "The Silen

Judge Mediation Determined to Lose Ma

As the deepest interest is manifested in
the matter of the probable converting oil

viewed Judge Mediation on the subject
yesterday. The judge said that it was inn
possible for him to tell the exact date, but
ga We it as his opinion that an effort would
probably be made to start the judicial re-
duction works some time next week, posi-
bly, next Monday. The fret thing, he said,
absolutely necessary was to settle the dis

payers upon whom falls the expense Of
maintaining a large number OF criminals Of
all kinds.
Although a rather delicate thing to do,
the reporter asked his honor which of the
two claimants for the office of sheriff he in.
tended to recognize. To this he replied
that he did not know, but would be gov.
erned solely by the evidence and law and
would express an opinion only when called
upon to do 80 in a legal capacity. Until
then, he said, he would not discuss the
matter at all.
One thing, however. he did say, and this
lie published for the benefit of the parties
int rested. The judge is determined not to
waste any time, and when court adjourns
to meet at 10 O'Clock that hour will be
meant, and not 1890 or IL o'clock. The
same rule will also be applicable to recess
taken at the Don hour. Attorneys who
have been in the habit Of delaying the
court by their dilatoriness should make a
mark of this and remember it, unless they
wish to see portions Of their large, fat fees
disappear down the hungry throat Of the
county treasury.

on the evening OF the 26th and the follow.
ing officers elected: William Thompson,
president; Charles L. Dahler, vice-president;
Thomas Golf, secretary; T. Fl. Clewell,

many other Incorporated mining com
panies in Montana, made the mistake oil
making the stock unassessable and the re-
suit ia that no funds are forthcoming to
prosecute work on the mine. The property

be ONE OF the best in the Cataract district,
and only requires q small amount OF
money to put it on q paying basis.
In order to secure the money and
put the mine on q business basis for all
future time, the stockholders have decided
to disincorporate the present company
and then rei%ncorporate under the laws OF
the state and make the stock assessable
for working purposes. 1t is O. tedious pro-
cess to 20 through, but seems to be the
only one that can be successfully adopted
to reach the desired end. The attempt to
develop a mine with o assesss BILE stock
has proved disastrous to q good many cor.
porations. 1t can only be successful where
the original capital in the treasury is amply
sufficient to prosecute all work required,

When fully Organized, with money in the
treasury to 60 ahead, there is no doubt but
what the Boulder Chief will take its llace
among the dividend paying mines Of Mon

The Feeefa-he stole water. This may be
a pretty serious charge to make against a
resident OF Butte, but nevertheless it is a
fact and should be published broadcast to
refute the SANDER upon 1.-THE Greatest Min.
ing Camp on earth" that water is an IN.
known quantity in the domestic economy
OF the community. The exact amount he
stole is not known, but it is in evidence
that he was guilty OF larceny OF water. The
arrest was made at the instance OF j. R.
Wharton, secretary Of the Silver Bow
Water company, and the culprit was
yanked before Justice Irvine. The defend.
ant had formed q habit Of using the com.
pany's water without first having obtained
consent, and as others have been guilty Of
the same ~offense, it was decided to make
an example OF him. Although the case was
q clear one, the complaint was withdrawn
upon payment Of costs by the defendant
and his taking out q proper permit from
