The train was going slowly, but was

RUNAWAY MARRIAGES.
Methodist Ministers Take Position
Against Them.

1t is probable that the Methodist min
listers of Nashville may in the future re-
fuse to perform marriage ceremonies,
where those desiring to marry have run
away. The ministers held the weekly
meeting Monday morning, and the .po-
sition was taken by those present, that
ministers should not perform the mar
riage ceremony where there is parental
OBJ lection, or other causes for a run
away.
There were numerous discussions, in
which the opinion was expressed that
has ty marriages almost without excep
ton eliminated in unhappiness, and in
a large lumber of cases a resort to the
divorce court. DR.. A. M. Trawick led
the discussion. saying that it was true
that few of these haphazard mar
riages turned out happily. but they
we're so few, he said, that when compared
with the many failures, the argument
in their favor failed.
Dr. w. F. Tillett was the last speak
err, and was of the opinion that all
Methodist ministers shout d refuse to
marry runaway couples He did not
think they should marry a girl unde
age. He thought the minister should
not pei form the ceremony where there
was parental objection. DR.. Tillett said
that divorces are on the increase, and
it should be the duty of ministers to
struggle against the prevalency.

CONTRACT LET FOR NEW DEPOT.
Nashville Firm Will Put UP L. & N.
Station at Columbia

Supt. T. E. Brooks of the Louisville
& Nashville has announced that the
contract for building the new depot at
Columbia had been let to A. II. Haw-
thorne q Co. of Nashville. The work
of construction will begin at once.
= The contract calls for a stone struc-
ture of two stories slate roof ana tile
floors. The second floor will be made
up of six offices, in which the COM
pany's business at Columbia will be
transacted. The building will be a
modern and up to- date structure, with
all the conveniences OF the twentieth
century railway station.
The contract was let in Louisville,
ana in securing it the Nashville firm
was bidding against active competition
from both points. Nashville Banner.
Mr.. Hawthorne came out from Nash
VILE Wednesday to look the depot
grounds over and make all preliml-
nary arrangements for beginning work
at once. He stated to Herald repre-
sentative that ground would be broken
for the new structure the first OF next
week, and that work would proceed
as rapidly as stone was received from
Bowling Green.
Two shifts of men would be worked.
though no large number of men will
be at work at any one time. Inc
contract calls for time limit OF five
months in the erection of the building.
Mr.. Hawthorne stated, but in work of
this character the time limit was gen
really exceeded. 1t was probable, he
said, that an ornamental tile roof in
stead of slate would be used, and the
building would be the handsomest
depot on the L. & N, south of the
Nashville station.
S. E. Calender & Go. were notified
to have two small buildings removed
from the depot site. The firms
main building will not be in the
way until street work begins.

invariably more civilized than those
who inhabit countries in which little

Trains Necessary To Move This
Years Corn Crop.

Trains Necessary To Move This
Years Corn Crop.
A corn crop of fully two and one half
billion bushels, which is three hundred
million bushels more than the biggest
crop in the history of the country. is
predicted for this year by traffic men
and grain statisticians, says the Rail
way Age. Two and half billion
bushels of corn means 140, 600, 600
pounds, which means 70, 0O0, 900 TONS
which, at the liberal average of thirty
tons to the car, means 2, 1888, 333 car
loads; which at fifty cars to the train,
means 46, 666 trains; which means
loud calls for cars and engines, long
hours and increased pay for train
crews, large earnings for the railways
much money for farmers merchants
and all realted industries, and con-
tinuance of general prosperity.
How much Of the possible two and
a third million carloads will actually
be carried by rail and how much OF
it will be consumed on the farms, can
not be so easily figured; but the bulk
of this prodigious yield will reach the
railways in the form of corn or of
stock, and the roads in the corn grow
ing regions will have all tn at they can
do for many months, and every rail
way and business in the country will
benefit from the prosperity of the pro-
duCers of this great staple.
