" LII APPEAL
Council Has It's Fighting Clothes On
and Will Carry the Hill Case
to the Supreme Court,
Also Decides to Oppose Further Con.
tinuance Of Light Rate Suit
The Proceedings.

The members OF the city council are
in a fighting mood. At an adjourned
meeting held Thursday evening matters
pertaining to the litigation in which the
city is now involved were discussed at
length, and after Councilman Mcguire
quoted Andrew Jackson the city dads
voted that the Hill case should be car
ried to the supreme court, even tho Mr..
Hill obtained but partial victory in his
suit to collect a large amount for ser
vices as hydraulic engineer. While
the city may obtain little more than
revenge on Mr.. Hill BY delay in the pay
ment of the judgment obtained by him,
the cost of the appeal and hearing in the
supreme court will be but about $50.
$50
Az further evidence that the council
proposes to stand by it's guns, it was
voted to oppose any further continua
ance of the suit brought by the Mar
shalltoWn Light Power & Railway
Company to prevent the enforcement Of
the Harris electric rate ordinance. The
hearing in the federal court was once
continued until Oct. 3. and the city at
tornay was Instructed to prepare for the
trial on that date.
Chicken coops are barred from city
property. One Of Mr. Kreutzer's con-
stituents desired permission TO conduct
a hennery on the vacant portion of the
lot in the rear of the Alert hose house.
The council after due elaboration, re-
fusd to grant the desired permission.
Action was taken to make the neces-
| sary repairs ard purchase supplies in
the way of stoves and fuel for the5vari-
Gus city buildings the coming winter.
The council will visit the emergency
Ahespital in a body next Sunday to oh
| tain information as TO what is needed
There to keep the occupants comfortable
during the cold weather.

AN INDEPENDENT LINE.

A large petition has been voluntarily
circulated in Hickman this week by
the citizens Of that town addressed 10
the West Kentucky Telephone Com
pany. The petition asks this great In.
dependent company 10 establish and
operate line in Hickman and give its
former splendid connection with Fulton
and the outside world. The 'pesition
also bess that a public station be es-
tablished In the county court house,
The petitioners ask for immediate &C
ton by the company. Having been
formerly served by the West Kentucky
Telephone Company the citizens Of
Hickman know a good thing and want
the service again. Fulton Leader
The Courier has not seen the petition
referred TO- but there is no point with

Hickman exchange passed into the

.BRENFORO CHURCH AGITATED
MEETING OF QUARTERLY CONFERENCE
FOR CHESWOLD AND BETHEL.
James F. Davis Makes Strong Plea in Be-
half of the BrenfOrd PeOple-The
Result of the Meeting.

CHEswOLD, June 12th.-The first
quarterly conference of this year for
Cheswold and Bethel charge, was held
Monday morning at Cheswold by DIR.
VIZ. COrkran. Itproved to be a very ln-
teresting and perhaps servicable bust
ness session as a result of the move
ment at Brenford. Those people are
aroused and seemingly in earnest in
their needs for a morning preaching
service in connection with their newly
Organized Sunday School work. James
f. Davis, who was their spokesman,
speaks of the great possibilities in the
Brenford movement, by gathering in
many who have not been attending
any religious services because of in
convenient distances. In their infancy
Brenford claims the fostering care of
old "MOther Bethel" and the Bethel
people seem willing to extend them the
nurturing hand. Cheswold, also more
mature child of the "Old Mother, in
order to nurture the infant at Brenford,
is willing to surrender one-fourth of
the morning pastoral service for local
service.
As the situation now presents itself,
the arrival of Rev. G. X. Illick, of La
haska, Pa, who two years ago bought
farm near Cheswold, is most timely.
Rev. Illick has proved to be a very ac-
ceptable supply since his advent.
This growth of church interests, in
crease of family and enlarged territory,
means more work and also more re-
spOnsibility. Pastor Gardner recog.
niZes this fact and accepts it enthusi-
astically. The business minds present,
however, see in it the inevitable rule,
"More work, more pay" and propo-
sition was made by one of the churches
which will doubtless be accepted by
the other to raise the present salary
propOrtiOnately.
The conference proceedings was
most harmonious throughout, and al
indications point to the fact that the
| young child viii be we'll cIotneC
and fed.
James P. Jones was elected trus
tee of Bethel to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Jacob P. Dickson.

WILMINGTONS GREAT CARNIVAL.
Will be Inaugurated by the Elks MOrday
With and Elaborate PrOgram-A
Gala Week Promised.

The Wilmington Lodge of Elks and
the people of Wilmington in general
are greatly interested in the carnival
and street fair to be held in that city
next week beginning June IS. 1t will
be under the management of the Elk's
lodge. All the arrangements have
been completed and the carnival will
be one of the largest and most novel
fairs seen in Wilmington. Four
squares ON the Boulevard have been
fenced in by permission of the city au-
thorities, and there will be large in
dustrial street, where, in handsomely
decorated booths, the products of the
Wilmington manufacturing establish
ments will be shown. Adjoining the
Boulevard, will be erected a monster
midway. The fair will be opened on
Monday afternoon, after large street
parade. There will be many large
floats, representing the business inter
ests of the city. Governor Ebe w.
Tunnel will conduct the opening ex-
ercises; Mayor John G. Fahey will
make an address; Miss Maybelle
Moore, who will be concealed in a
large mass of flowers, will jump out
and, plucking rose, connect wires
which will throw open the gates and
cause eleven strokes to be struck on
the City Hall bell. This will be a
signal for the ringing of all the bells
in the city.
Every day there will be parade.
The local fire companies, the police
and the militia will parade. Friday
evening the societies in the city will
parade masked. On Saturday evening
there will be masked carnival to enc
with battle of confetti. The prettiest
parade will be the children's fora
parade, i'll which about ten Thousand
school children will be in line.
The week will be gala one and ar
rangements are being made to enter
tain thousands of visitors.
