There Is standing ut Cumberland

nessee centennial. The mill was built
by John Locke. who came from North
Carolina about 1905. The stones which
formed the foundation Of the structure
were hauled from the old north state
at cost Of $50. Locke operated 1t
successfully for many years. and after
he had accumulated a small fortune he

erected cnrdlng factory and an up.

WOMEN IN 6ULL RINGS.

Three Females Who Butcher Bulls to
Ainusc the spaniards.
American women would find It diffl.
cult to imagine one of their sex in the
arena where bulls are butchered to
make Spanish holiday. but such there
are. Three pets of the bullring In
Spain are wOmen-One a Spanlard. the
other two Germans. Donna Pledros,
the Spanlnrd, Is a matadOr, the others
are toreadors. 1t Is the duty Of Donna
Pledros to finish the fierce brute after
1t has been tormented and wounded by
the others She Is q hpndscme WOMAN
Of %, and has bccn In the bull.ring
since she was II. When first she made
known her intention of entering the
arena there was howl of protest. but
she persisted, and when she made her
first appearance she was showcred
with flowers. Since then she has been
in the ring once every month, and on
several occasions has been more or less
injured. Great danger Is incurred by
matadOrs when giving the quietus to
| n bull. because the savage brute gener.
ally makes last desperate rally. In
this way Donna Picdros has been face
to face with death more than once.
Her two competitors are the Prctel
sisters. Lola and Angelica. Pretty
blondes. scarcely out of their teens,
they are brilliant and daring riders.
Their exploits in the bull-rings have
been the themes of Spanish poets. they
are the pets of the populace. and for
their achievements In the arena they
receive great financial reward. They
were originally circus riders. Their
manager, being struck with their
equestrian ability, determined to make
bull-fghters Of them. He took them
to Seville. where there Is school de.
voted to the fine art of killing bull.

than those who had been mixed with
Moorish blood. The veins upon their
white hands were blue, while the blood
OF the masses, contaminated by the
Moorish infusion, showed black upon
their hands and faces. So the white
Spaniards of the old race came to de-
clare that their blood was "blue,"
while that of the common people was
black. The phrase passed to France,
where 1t had no such Significance. and
was. In fact, quite arbitrary, and thence

Thanksgiving School Services-Notes
and Personal Mention

At the Chestnut street school yes
terday afternoon an interesting pro-
gram was given and a beautiful new
flag was raised. The entrance hall was
|tastefully decorated with palms, large
platform had been erected which was
draped with flags and above it were
hung the pictures of Washington and
Lincoln. The following prograsn was
given: Greeting, Anna Petrie; Harvest
Is Come" Belle Foyle song by school;
proclamation, by eight little boys and
girls song, Anna Bacon; recitation,
Edna Jones; song by school; recitation,
Mabel Corson; song; recitation, Arthur
Clough; recitation, three little girls;
kindergarten song; recitation, Stephen
Palmer; recitation, Jennie GRADER. The
presentation of the flag was made by
Helen Eames and was responded to
by Mr.. Innes.
AT the Hellman street school there
were appropriate Thanksgiving eXer-
cises. The little ones in Miss La Vans
department, First grade, were served
with ice cream and cake by their teach
er. The Sixth grade, in charge of-Miss
Batty, had exercises, which were highly
enjoyed by those present. In Prof.
Bonebrake's department a program was
rendered, at the conclusion of which the
pupils, in appreciation of the professors
efforts in their behalf, presented him
with handsome gold pen. After the
schools were dismissed the tea chers held
a pleasant reception in one of the rooms
in honor of Prof. and Mrs. Bonebrake,
who left last evening for their new home
in Portland, Ore.

probably not have the effect Of chang
Ing 1t. In that event, it would not cause
any more delay than would otherwise
occur. If he has not made up his mind
the resolution might possibly act as a
needed spur"
Col. Otis referred to the report of chief
engineer, u. S. A., Gen. John M. Wilson,
and read the following from that report
asserting that 1t pointed out the incon-
sistency of Gen. Alger's positions: "The
total estimate submitted for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1899, for continuous
work authorized by congress and by the
secretary Of war is S1S,O93, ,0O7.56. None
of this amount has yet been expended,
but as permitted by law a portion Of it
has possibly been earned by contractors
in advance of its appropriation"
The resolution was then put to vote
and was unanimously adopted. The
manner and time of transmitting the
resolution to the president by wire was
discussed generally. On motion Of Mr..
Newberry the matter is to be called to
the attention of the chamber of COM
merce, Merchants and Manufacturers
association, board of trade, county board
of supervisors, city council and Sound
Money league. The approval by these
bodies in the sentiments contained in
the resolution is certain to be secured
and such approval will also be sent by
wire to President Mckinley. 1t was de-
cided to wait until 10 o'clock this morn
ing before sending the message to the
president.
Mr.. Workman thought mass meet
ing should be called and suggested that
it be held Saturday.
The suggestion called forth expers-
sions of opinion from a number of men,
bers of the league and it was finally de-
cided to leave the matter Of a mass
meeting to the discretion of the presl-
dent and secretary. The meeting then
adjourned.
