afternoon in the Circuit Court room

mary.
This canvasssing committee-com-
posed of w. j. fowler. w. Z. Ballafsnt.
Il. w. Oliver, w. z. Whitthorne. Jno NJ.
Grove and j. J. Parrish-reported that
they had canvassed the returns. and
submitted tabulated report showi ng
the nominees. With the report was
also submitted an appeal from Prof.
Jesse TomlinsOn. through his attorneys.
Messrs. Hatcher and Dining. asking
that the poll lists, ballots and registra-
ton books of the 9th district be ex-
amined and that the vote be -ecounted.
Committeeman c. V. Hull moved
that the report of the committee be
adopted as correct. and that the returns
as submitted be adopted without re-
counting or investigation.
Mr.. Hatcher made few remarks ex-
planning the case. He said that Mr..
Tomlinson had been informed that
some persons had voted twice in the
9th district, once at the stockyards and
then again at the court house, and that
some haa voted who had not registered.
He did not care to have any contest or
scramble for the office, but merely
wanted the vote recounted and the fair
thing done.
Mr.. Tomlinson also made a few
remarks, stating that he had no desire
to have a contest. but that when men
came to him and complained that
fraud had been practiced-not only
once or twice, but by the wholesale y
and that men had voted twice in the
election. he felt it his duty to ask
that this box be recounted and
purged If, on the recount, Mr..
Gordon had one legal vote plurality
he would cheerfully acquiesce and sup
port him iii the August election.
j. G. VOORHEES,, attorney for Mr.. !
Gordon, stated that there was no
specific charge that any man or any
number of men had voted twice, and
that the CHARGES were 80 fimsy that
he couldn't see how the committee
could consider them seriously or act |
upon them.
Mr.. Dining also made plea for an
investigation.
A vote was then called on Mr. Hull's
motion, and it carried by vote Of 20

TENNESSEE CENTRAL.
Renewed Report That Southern Has
Absorbed It.
Special to the Herald.

Nashville, Apl 4-The report is re-
newed on the streets here today that the
Southern railroad has acquired the
Tennessee Central.
A dispatch from Knoxville gives the
same news, and asserts that the charter
for new railroad from Jellico to Knox
vile means that the l.. & N. will
build into the latter city and thus
offset the entrance of the Southern to
Nashville.
President Baxter of the Tennessee
Central. positively denies that his road
has been absorbed by the Southern.
If the report is true, the million
dollar subscription to the Tennessee
Central by the city of Nashville will
b. forfeited.

WHAT IS a MODERN NEWSPAPER ?
The Public THINKS 81 T. the Community's
All-Mounh mnnhY Mnn.

A guessing contest to answer the
question, "What Is a modern news
paper| might not seem to be a diff
cult one at first blush, but Investigation
would change that conclusion.
The newspaper shows the effect of
expansion more than any other branch
Of trade or business, and with the
cheering feature that the public is al
ways the beneficiary.
From the Adrian NIichJ Telegram
comes the following attempt to de-
scribe what a newspaper now Is:
"The public is iusistent in its de-
mands 1t expects the newspaper to
be a pack horse, a dray team, ditch
digger, a gas inspector, a water tester,
a special policeman, a detective bu-
reau, q dog chaser. a sidewalk hEer,
COW finder, a thief catcher. bust
ness maker, a city pusher a house
seller, paving Inspector, a sewer direc-
tor a pOcketbook finder. a lost article
hunter council regulator, fraud dis
coyerer, panic preventer, obituary
preacher, chief taffy pourer at we'd
dings and social functions, sporting
mascot, fish liar, big egg prevaicator,
snake story expander, judge on earliest
gardens, business boomer, husband
finder, sweetheart securer, school
inspector and general all-rOund
handy man for the community.
In fact, If there is a single
thing of importance to human life and
human happiness that doesn't go
through the newspaper it has never yet
been discovered. 1t touches every fea-
ture of human endeavor from the cradle
to the grave. 1t smiles with those who
smile and weeps with those who
mourn. 1t is everywhere all the time
the most busy, the most useful of all
the public agencies. 1t makes mis-
takes. All human agencies do. Some
times it is dishonest. But it stands
out so in the glare of the arc light of
publicity that it can but half succeed
if dishonest-and then only for brief
time"

A Game of Chance.

Mackeral fishing has always been a
game of chance, more so than any other
branch of the fisheries Immense for
tunes have been made in good years
and large sums lost in unsuccessful
seasons, for it takes considerable
money to fit out a feet of seiners.
Some of the high line vessels have
divided among the crews as much as
$1,000 a man for six months work.
Mackerel fishing is now done in
three ways: with a big purse seine,
which is the method of the larger YES
sells; with a drag or gill net, and in
pounds and traps which are built out
from the shore Of brush or Irvine.
The old way of catching mackerel
was by hook and line. Large Quanti-
ties Of wash bait, herring and clans
chopped fine, were used, and sometimes
as many as four or five barrels of this
bait were thrown over from a single
vessel in day. 1t was used to attract
the fish, and the old timers think if a
return to the old methods were made
the mackerel would come to these
shores in as large numbers as they
did years ago.
In those days there were more YES
sells employed than at present At one
time, just before a heavy northeaster,
600 fishermen were counted passing
in by Portland Head at the entrance
of Portland harbor to escape the storm.
The vessels fshed in fleets, and it
often happened that several hundred
sail Of fishermen would be seen in a
very small area Collisions were fire.
quent and whenever two vessels came
together there was sure to be a fight
between the crews.-New York Sun.

The manufacture OF postal cards is
an interesting process. From the paper
mill millions of sheets, 30x5O inches in
size, are brought to the pressroom and
printed upon presses having a capacity
of 1900 impressions per hour. The
sheets, each containing ninety cards,
makes the capacity of the presses 100,
600 an hour. or 100000 a day. The
new forms will, however, contain 10
plates, and the presses, which are to
be put up in Maine, will have a greater
hourly capacity; hence the daily output
can be increased The Sitter. which
cuts the cards into strips of ten cards
each, is operated by one man. After
the large cards are slitted into strips of
ten cards each they are taken to the
cutting machines which are operated
by women Here they are fed through
the cutting machines. three strips at a
time for eight times, and then one
strip, making in all twenty-five cards
which are dropped in bundles and
banded by two girls, who occupy seats
near the machines. Twenty of these
packages Of twenty-five cards are
placed in a'pasteboard box; these boxes
next so to three young men, whose
duty it is to put them il wooden boxes,
the cards are stored away in the large
freproof vault to await shipment tc

Shadowing a eller

81 have had all sorts of experiences,
said a Pinkerton detective whom / met
at luncheon in a Broadway restaurant
Friday noon, but last night l had an
entirely new one. Two days ago the
president OF a Wall street banking
house sent for me and said that he fear
ed there was something wrong with his
assistant teller, who appeared to be Ia
ing under some excitement, and who
showed signs Of late hours and dissipa-
ton. was asked to shadow him, and
to look out for evidences of irregulari'
ties.
ut was then noon, and started at
once by following my man to cheap
restaurant in Ann street. / supposed
that he was going for his luncheon, but
he went into a telephone booth and
closed the door. II was impossible for
me to hear with whom he was talking,
so went to the proprietor Of the place
and made some inquiries. and learned
that my man telephoned every day at
that time, and seldom bought more
than a sandwich.
THAT day he paid the telephone toll,
but bought nothing. As followed him
into the street made up my mind that
he was in communication with a stock
broker, and that financial trouble in
Wall street was the cause Of his strange
actions. That was nothing new in my
experience.
