On Thursday and Friday nights many
witnessed the production OF the much an
ticipated "F'irstes of Penxance" at the Ia
coma theaser. and it certainly was great
success, displaying tbs fact that even
more histsionic talent than vas expected
exists ia this city. The Woman's Ex-
change should feel proud TO think that
sach sn entertainment was given for its
benefit. but IN these times organizations
need something decidedly more substsn-
tiaI than pride 20 sustain them. but the
exchange undoubtedly will receive q sub
stantisl sum 10 aid IL through the coming
months when Strengthened circumstances
are almost universally the order of the
times. Miss Alien. who took the princi-
pal part among the daughters Of the
Major General. was most successful in her
part. and was especially appIauded in the
duets with Mr.. +. u. CrandaIi. as Fred
esirk. Mr.. crandaIl made his FIRST appear
ance In opera Thursday night. and he
and Mr.. Joy. ~ the Pirate King. have
been most favorabiy criticised. Mr.. r. u.
Wright as Sergeant Of Police made great
hit in his part. Mr. &. c. catrisxie as
Major General was greeted with applause.
Tho rest of the Major Generals daughters
were: Miss Bailey, Miss Phillips. Miss
E.neI Hoibrook. Mrs. f. II. Crandall as
Ruth won enthusiastic applause, and was
considered one of the best Among the
Others who took part were: Mr.. and Mrs.
Melbourne Bailey, Mr.. w. A. stcrnberg,
Mr.. r. 8. Bull. Miss Rector. Mis-. Hol-
brook, Mr.. Steven Hoibrook. Miss Wor-

Release of w. c. Jones.

NASHVILLE, April 2s.-Gov. Turney
practically gave w. c. Jones, the Co
lumbia turfman. his liberty today, by
sending the following to Hon. j. M
Anderson, Judge of the Davidson County
Criminal Court
Petitioner Jones was arrested upon a
warrant issued by me as Governor, based
upon requisition from the Governor o1
New York. Jones came before you on
petition of habeas corpus. The mat
ter continued until my action could be
had on the application to revoke the
warrant.
1 have carefully examined the facts
of the matter as presented by both sides,
and l am now of the opinion that the
prosecution has been instituted not for
the purpose of vindicating the law, but
for the purpose of collecting of private
debt, and, / will add, debt which is
not Justly due and one that could not be
collected by law.
The evidence satisfies me that the pur-
pose is to get Jones, who is q fugitive
from New York, out of the State and
into New York, in the hope of collect
ing or compromising fraudulent claim
l therefore revoke the warrant and dis
charge Jones from arrest made by virtue
of it. This will, / suppose, of course
end the habeas corpus proceedings be-
fore you.
/ address this to you because Jones
has given bond to appear in your court
when my decision has been made known
Respectfully, P. TURNEY,
Governor of Tennessee.

TENNESSEE STATE NEWS.
Want Their Money.

NASHVILLE, April 26.-A bill of . sem
sational character was filed in the Chan
Gerry Court today by attorneys for James
Fielding and six or eight other depos-
itors against j. III. Yarbrough, presi-
dent, J. n. Brooks, cashier, and the
stockholders in the Bank Of Commerce,
seeking to hold the latter gentlemen
personally responsible for the deposits
Of complainants. The bill sets forth
the fact that the bank advertised its
capital stock as 500, 900, opened up
safety boxes for small deposits, and 9TH
erwise deceived the people, when its
officers all the time knew it was insol-
vent. Complainants ask the Chancellor
to issue decree for the full amount OF
their deposits, and if the assets OF the
bank are not found sufficient to meet
their claims, that the officers and stock
holders be made to pay the difference.
The amount involved in this bill is
about 81, 500, butt is understood large
number of depositors will join hands
with Fielding and his fellow sufferers in
an effort to squeeze the men whom they
allege deceived them. The bill rakes
the officers and stockholders fore and

THE West Tennessee Horticultural
| Society has determined to make an ex
| hibit of Tennessee fruits and vegeta-
bles at the Worlds Fair.
MARTIN SHEA, the Oldest contractor in
the State, who aided in the construction
of nearly every railroad in Tennessee,
died at Knoxville recently.
| ANNOUNCEMENT is made that Senator
Proctor, of Vermont, with two local
capitalists, will break ground soon at
Knoxville for the largest marble mill
in the world.
EFFORTS are being made by the citi-
| izens of Milan to connect that place
with Memphis by telephone, and two
routes are in contemplation-one by
Jackson and one by Brownsville.
THE fifth annual meeting of the
American Baptist Educational Society
will be held at Nashville May II. Ad-
dresses will be delivered by some of the
most eminent men in the church.
THE State Funding Board last week
cancelled the 81, 100000 per cent. bonds
recently returned from New York.
These are the bonds that were reported
| hypothecated in New York some time
during the winter. There will be an
issue of bonds to build the new peni-
tentiary, and the board will contract for
their printing shortly.
THE farmers in and around Trenton
are very blue over the damage to crops,
vegetables and fruits by the recent
| frosts. Much of the corn and cotton
will have to be replanted, and, like all
other sections, cotton seed is scarce
article. Wheat is more or less damaged,
much of it being jointed and some head
ing. Nearly all classes of vegetables
are killed or greatly damaged.
ALEXANDER CARTWRIGHT, negro ex-
convict released from Coal Creek prison,
has been sent to the Davidson County
farm in default of So fine for trespass-

Nashville Railroad. Upon the expira-

Memphis. The negro sold the ticket.
spent the money and was endeavoring
to beat his way to Memphis when ar
rested by the roads officers.
THE evils of hasty legislation are de-
veloping rapidly since the adjournment
of the General Assembly. The other
day it was discovered that the appro-
priation for the Bureau of Agriculture
was unintentIonally cut half in two and
the work of that important branch of
State government badly crippled there
by. Now it is found that the bill amend
ing the charter of Cleveland was en-
crossed and a lot of amendments
adopted by both houses left out alto
| gether.
| EVER since Sam Jones announced his
| intention to hold series of meetings
at Jackson on June II, the people Of
| Jackson have been in quandary, as
the date named would conflict with the
| commencement exercises of the various
schools in the city. A few days ago
Rev. J. w. Lawrence, pastor of the
First Methodist Episcopal Church, wrote
a letter to Mr.. Jones asking him If he
could not change the date of his meet
| ing SO as not to conflict with the school
exercises. He has received a reply,
and Mr.. Jones says he will commence
his services on June Il, instead OF the
date previously named.

the 39-inch stcel-tired wheels and trucks

have been gilded. The windows, which
are 32xi2 inches. are of French plate-elass
and practically constitute the sides OF the

On each side Of the catatalque there are
