RURAL FREE
DELIVERY.
Steps To Be Taken to Secure One,
Radiating from Columbia.
Would Be of Great Advantage to the
Farmers-Good Roads Pre-
Requisite.

Steps will soon be taken for the es-
Enlistment of rural free mail delivery,
radiating from Columbia. Mr.. Ii. F..
Fariss, Jr., has written to the First
Assistant Postmaster General, asking
him what course to take in order to Sc
cure the delivery, and in reply has re-
ceived the necessary instructions.
The first step to be taken is for those
who desire the service to present a
petition, through our Representative in
Congress or one of our Senators, to the
First Assistant Postmaster General.
This petition should be signed only by
heads of families, and should mention
the number in each family over 10 years
of age.
The purpose of the rural free delivery
system is to give postal facilities to re-
mote communities, the resident of which
wou d otherwise have to travel several
miles to receive their letters and news
papers. No route can be established
under ordinary circumstances that is
less than 20 to 25 miles in length, or
which gives service to less than 100 fami-
lies. The route should be so arranged
that the carrier would not be required to
travel over the same ground twice on
the same day.
Good roads are an essential pre-
requisite to any investigation - and
these Maury county has. A number of
counties in Tennessee now have the
rural delivery system, and there is nc
reason why Maury should not. 1t would
be of untold advantage to our farmers

WALKER VERSUS RHEA.
Majority Report on the Ninth Vir-

Washington, Jan. 31.-When the
house met Mr.. Taylor (Ohio) chair
man of the committee on elections

contested election case of Walker VS..
Rhea from the Ninth Virginia dis

while gross frauds and irregularities
occurred in the election they fell
very far short of changing the re-
suit" The committee therefore rec
commended that Mr.. Rhea, the sitting
member, who is a democrat, should
retain his seat. Messrs. Linney On.
c. and Samuel Davenport pa dis
sented from the conclusion of the
majority and were given leave TO file
their views. The report will be called
up in the near future.

the Young Married Woman's Clut and
host OF other friends Friday after
neon from three to five o'clock, compli.
mentary to Mrs. William Moses, of
Louisville The decorations were,
perhaps, the most elaborate of any seen
this season; southern smilax hung in
rich profusion around the walls of the
double rooms, and the arch between
was made into thing of beauty by the
lavish use of this graceful vine. From
the mantes rose, in pyramid form,
tall bank of green, illumined with
candies placed at regular intervals, and
arou.d the walls, near the ceiling, was IA
deep and very effective fringe Of ferns
Only candles were used for illumination,
but these were in such profusion as to
flood the apartments with their soft
light. In the hall, the stairway foimed
another opportunity for the Artistic and
lavish use of smilax, and bower was
formed of it in the rear; in this stood
Misses Mary Brown and Eva James, both
looking lovely in airy white evening
costumes, gracefully serving the deli
'cious drink
The hostess and honoree presented a
strikingly handsome appearance, both
being the fairest type of blonde, and
wearing full dress toilettes; Mrs. Brad
shaw's gown being of black liberty silk,
while Mrs. Moses was attired in white
silk and lace.
The view of the dining room from the
reception room embraced the bon bon
table, whose principal decoration threat
ened, in its magnifcence, to eclipse the
more modest ones This consisted of
tall bowl, filed with dozens of exquisite
Mareschal Neil roses. while smaller
bouquets of the same flower, and wreaths
of smiax completed the decorations.
A delightful luncheon was served in
the dining-room. TIE ladies who as
sisted Mrs. Bradshaw were Mrs. j. M.
