that will mean not only the CON
struction of ship at that point
but the investment OF $4,000,
carried by the bill, for the estab-
lishment of the necessary plant.
The Democrats are inclined to fav-
or the provision because they be-

now constructs our naval vessels.

are bitterly opposed to it, oena-

An Awful Calamity.

The wiping out of the town OF
St. Pierre, on the island of Martl-
nique, in the French West Indies,
IS one of the greatest calamities
that has befallen any community
since the earthquake at Lisbon. 1t
is appalling to reflect that $4,000
or 10000 lives were snuffed out IN
an instant, and that a vast amount
of property was consumed and de-
stroyed.
The land of volcanoes is one of
peril. The fate of Pompeii has
been the fate of many cities and
communities that have been over
whelmed by volcanic eruptions.
People live unconscious of danger
until all of a sudden the disaster
comes. No one need be surprised
at any time to hear of similar dis
turbances in Mexico and South
America, and, in fact, wherever the
home of volcanoes is found. These
countries are good places to keer
away from. -Commercial Appeal.

JUDGE MAIDEN.

Sundays Nashville American
contained the following biograph-
ical sketch of Hon. r. E. Maiden,
of Dresden, the Democratic noml-
nee for Judge of the Circuit Court
for this district:
r. E. Maiden, of Dresden, is native
of Virginia, bat moved to Tennessee
at an early age, and was reared chief
ly in Humphreys county. He began
life for himself as farm hand at So a
month, attending country school part
of the time. He acquired an educa-
ton wholly through his own eXer-
tions. Thirteen years ago he moved
to Weakley county and taught school
three winters, studying law in the
meantime! He was admitted to the
bar in 1892 and began the practice OF
law "with handful of books and no
money" as he expressed it. Two
wears later, in 1894, he was elected to
y
the Lower House of the Legislature
by a large majority, and served the
term with great satisfaction to his
constituents. He declined a second
term and devoted his time wholly to
the practice of law, becoming one OF
the most successful lawyers in his Sec
tion. In 1900 he was elected a dele
gate to the Kansas City convention
from the Ninth Congressional Dis
trict.
Mr.. Maiden was recently nominated
by acclamation for Judge of the Four
tenth Judicial Circuit, every lawyer
in the circuit of seven counties heart
lily indorsing him for the position-a
compliment of which he may well feel
proud. His nomination, of course, is
equivalent to an election.
Mr.. Maiden has met with the sue
cess which worth merits. Thirteen
years ago he entered Weakley county
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1902-05-16

without money and without acqualnt-
ances. Ten years after his admission
to the bar he was nominated by accla-
nation for Circuit Judge to succeed
Judge W. H, Swiggart, and will as
sumo his judicial duties at the age or
81. These facts attest his worth and
popularity. He is truly a self-made
man, honest, studious, courageous,
modest, temperate and moral-ln
every sense a man. He is a married
man, lives in Dresden, where he has a
handsome home and lucrative prac-
tice, and where he is popular with his
fellow citizens, who are proud OF his
success.

Whitecaps in Gibson.

A special dispatch from Dyer to

CATER being dormant for several
weeks the whitecapping spirit has
broken out afresh III the Eighth
district of Gibson county. II. O.
Kerr, superintendent of the Dyer
heading factory, has a force of hf-
teen negroes cutting timber from
the land of G. w. Robinson in the
Eighth, and yesterday he found a
written notice near the negro quar-
tiers, addressed to him, and warning
him to get the negroes out of the
district at once. Mr. Kerr says the
negroes are hard workers and have
given no cause for the warning.

The appointment of Henry Clay
Evans to the Consul Generalship
at London is a matter of keen re-
greet to the Republicans, although
they say that they will not oppose
his confirmation. Senator Burton
said yesterday that he did not be-
lieve Mr.. Evans deserved this re-
cognition and that, irrespective of
the facts, he believed it to be a
mistake for the universal condem-
nation of the soldiers. On the
other hand, he said, he appreciated
that there were many people who
believed that Mr.. Evans had been
sacrificed to popular clamor and
that his entire removal from pub
lie service would be misconstrued
by many good men. Considering
the fact that the President has Civ
en- Mr.. Evans former place to a
Kansas soldier, Senator Burton
will present no opposition to Ev-
ans confirmation. The Senator
apparently fails to realize that
practically any man who fills the
position of Pension Commissioner
and administers the Office with alb
solute rectitude will incur more or
less enmity and particularly from
the pension attorneys.

one of its members. Hon. Amos

short space of five days. Never
before in the history Of the House
has death visited three members
within so short a space of time.
All three were Democrats. AS a
mark of respect the House ad-
iourned without the transaction of
business on Saturday, Monday and
Tuesday, and only yesterday did
the Omnibus territorial bill come
up for action. All of the terrific
rial delegates have assured me OF
their faith in the success of this
measure in so far as the lower
house is concerned and all have
more or less hope that it will pass
the Senate. They have been indie
fatigable in their efforts to pro-
mote the success Of the measure

made speeches alleged to be in
