NASHVILLE STREET RAILWAY IN COURT Suit Filed to Force Payment by
 Trust Company SENSATIONAL CHARGES It Is Alleged That Only Eleven Shares of the Railroad company's Stock
 Were Paid for by the
 Trust Company.
SENSATIONAL CHARGES

Nashville, Tenn, July 15.-A motion was made in the United States Circuit Court today by E. E. Richardson, one of the underlying bondholders of the Nash vile Railroad, which recently went into the hands of receiver asking that he be allowed to intervene in the case of the Baltimore Trust and Guarantee Com pany vs. Nashville Railroad The litiga- tion involves over $9, 00O, 900 and the aver ments in the petition are sensational. The petition seeks ito compel the Baltimore Trust Company, under the mortgage for S6,500,0O0 Issue of bonds to pay into the treasury of the Nashville Railway a sum aggregating $1,792000. which is alleged to have been paid by the syndicate for the constituent lines of the Nashville Rail- road before It's consolidation.
 It Is charged that the Baltimore Trust Company advanced the money to pay for the stock and that 1t recouped itself out of the proceeds of the bond sale The syndicate Is alleged to have sold $4S75, ,U00 of bonds at par with accrued interest through the trust company and that the proceeds were divided among the mem bers of the syndicate and not a dollar paid into the Nashville Railroad treas ury. The petition asks that $6. 49S, GOO un- paid subscriptions made by the syndicate to the capital stock be paid into court and alleges of the total capital stock of $6500,000 only eleven shares were paid for and the balance now divided accord ing to the respective interests represented in the syndicate. The petition alleges that the Nashville Railroad Is now in solvent and that the foreclosure proceed ings were instituted to enable the syndi- cate to avoid it's liabilities as original subscribers to the capital stock. It Is also alleged that part of the scheme Is to depress the value of the underlying bonds so as to enable the trust company to buy them. The petition prays for judgment against the Baltimore Trust and Guarantee Company for the amount of the original stock subscriptions and the proceeds of the bond sales aggregat- ing owe, So, 9,000, 900.

among those most admired was a sun burst pendant, the center showing large and exquisite single stone. The diamond stars and the large crescents for the hair show very little gold, the designs showing the jewels set closely. Among the newest designs are the breaches of turquoise matrix. these being exquisite and show ing a rose gold setting, either plain or studded with small pearls. This rose gold, showing as 1t does the very dull finish, continues in vogue. These turquoise pins have pendants of Beirut pearls and are quite the latest fad among the importers.
 Calhoun is showing among his silver a superb old Martele pitcher, this being hammered by hand and in it's design in silver decoration.
 The repousse work was seen on a great deal of the silverware, tea service being among the handsomest sets, while the chests of silver showed the dainty de- signs so greatly in vogue for a year. The colonial patterns are still popular and in the tea and breakfast services there can be no prettier design.
 In the chatelaine watches there were numberiess artistic patterns and that so much attention is still being devoted to these little watches indicates that wo- man continues to favor this stlle of wear Ing her favorite little timepiece. Time drags less heavily when the moments are marked by a little chatelaine watch ornamented with jewels.
 The interior of Calhoun's establish ment is very handsome. It has been newly finished in rich mahogany, and the frescoes are in dark green. The cut glass shows resplendent against mirrored interior. and the shops one admires along Broadway are not more artistic.
 The Calhoun Jewelry Company is com posed of George R. Calhoun and James L. Gaines. Jr.. of Nashville.

Colombian Soldiers Dissatisfied and
 Treaten to Break Barracks.

Kingston. Jamaica, July 15.-A letter received here from a prominent mer- chant in Carthegena, Colombia. reports a serious outbreak among the Colombian troops in the outskirts of that city last week.

Monday they at- tempted to break out from their barracks and attacked their guards A bitter fight followed in which seven of the guards were killed and several wounded on both sides. This letter further says a large number of mutineers have escaped and it is expected they will join the rebels and that the indications are that the revolu- tion will continue longer and with renew ed energy on the part of liberals.

Loneliness md Health.

A medical journal has of late been
discoursing on the Indigestion of-lone-
illness. By this title is meant to be in
dicated the disorders of digestion which
are believed to follow the practice of
taking ones meals in solitary, state.
The topic is by no means an uninter-
esting one. Thousands of men and wo-
men living alone are compelled to take
their meals for the most part without
company. Week in and week out they
feed themselves without a soul to talk
to, and the medical journal devotes it's
energies to showing that the practice
is not one that is likely to be conducive
to digestion, to proper bodily nourish-
ment or to health. The solitary man
soon tires of merely eating, and, If he is
not Of literary turn of mind, his tend
ency is to hurry through his meals to
escape from his loneliness into the So
ciety of his fellow men. Herein, it is
held, lies a danger to health

Pound FoOIishness.

One of the commonest forms of pound
foolishness is countenanced by many
high authorities. This is the purchase
of certain household provisions in large
quantities. Few writer's on domestic
topics fail to lay stress upon the econ
omy of buying groceries in bulk. That
sugar and -four, potatoes and apples
should be bought by the half or whole
barrel, cereals by the case, butter by
the tub and other things in like proper
ton is one of the early precepts in the
young Housekeeper's Complete Guide
to Domestic Economy"
The ignorant young things buy the
provisions first and the experience aft
erward. The -four grows musty, the
cereals develop weevils, the potatoes
and apples rot long before they can be
eaten, and the cook exercises lavish
ness in the use of the butter and sugar
she would never show were they bought
In such limited amounts that the house
keeper could hold close watch over
them. Even after these events the
young mistress feels as If she were alb
solutely reckless and no manager at all

Ideas of News.

Justice John M. Harlan Of the United
State supreme court, when practic-
ing lawyer in Louisville, once tried his
hand at newspaper work, taking the
place of personal friend, then editor
of the Louisville Commercial. The JUS
tice got along all right writing editori-
ais, but had ideas as to news that were
at variance with those of the city edi.
tor.
One of the reporters had written a
clever account of a man who had fallen
from the fourth story of a building and
escaped without serious injury. 1t
made a story of about column in
length. With a proof of the article in
his hand the temporary editor came to
the city editor and said:
"Mr. Smith, please have this story
cut down. 1 can't see anything in it
that makes it worth that space"
"But it's the star story of the day,
Mr.. Harlan" gasped the astonished
news man. 81 think it's a remarkable
story and well worth all the space Civ
en- to It,"
81 DON'T" said Justice Harlan. "If a
man had jumped up four stories, it
would certainly have been remarkable,
but even a fool could fall down four
stories, or half a dozen, for that mat
ter."-New York Times.
