ing the early hour, there was large

his overcoat closely about him 10
keep out the chilly morning air.
A vast majority of those present
were men, but there were not a few
women and children in the throng,
and tLey cheered quite as Justify as
did the men when Mr.. Bryan came in
to view. He did not speak to exceed
five minutes at either Springfield or
Aurora, but at Monett he left the car
and addressed the crowd from the
elevated porch of a nearby hotel. His
talks were all along general lines, re-
ferring principally to the trusts and
to imperialism, and suggesting ques-
tions to be put to republican oppo-
nents.

CUTTING AFFRAY.
Abner Witherspoon Seriously Cuts
Will Black.

Abner Witherspoon and Will Black,
two young white men, engaged in diff
ticulty in front of Harmon & Martins
store on South Main street Friday night
about 7 O'Clock, as a result of which
Black was seriously cut by Wither-
spoon. A deep cash was inflicted in his
side, from which it was feared serious
effects would result.
Witherspoon was placed under arrest
by officers Dodson and Gresham, and
gave bond and was released.
The case was set for trial in the City
Court Monday morning, but the prosecu.
tion was not ready, and it will go before
the Grand Jury, which is now in session.
Black is still suffering considerably
from the wound inflicted by Wither-
spoon, but it is thought now that he
will recover.

CoIumbians Give Literally Of Their
Means to Texas Sufferers.
$500 FORWARDED LAST FRIDAY
Telegram Sent to Mayor Brashear of
Houston, Notifying Him That
It Had Been Sent.

Columbia, as has frequently been
demonstrated, makes little response to
mass meeting call. We have never I'M
derstood exactly why this is, but it is.
Whether it is because the people are too
busy, or too society, or too chubby or too
literary; but they never go to mass
meetings in any great pushes or enthu-
siasm, that's certain. So the small at
tandance at the meeting at the Opera
House Thursday evening of last week,
to make contributions TO the Texas
sufferers, was neither surprising nor
discouraging. On the contrary, at
the close of the meeting when they
discovered what they had done
they took new courage and said
among themselves, if TWO bakers dozen
can give Sl60, what won't Columbia and
Maury county do?
The meeting was called to order by
Mayor Cameron, who called upon Rev.
Mayor was elected to preside. Mr..
Cameron said that his program had
been to put Rev. Mr.. Lee in the chair,
but since snap judgment had been
taken upon him, he would ask Mr.. Lee
for few suggestive remarks.
Mr.. Lee responded with an interesting
talk of some five minutes in length, and
then in an informal way others followed
with suggestions how best to proceed
1t was finally decided to appoint com
mittee of six, with full power to decide
all minor details,-canvass the town

subscriptions and dispose of the fund
