Not Guilty.

The FIVE men arrested and brought
here last week in charge of Sheriff
Chiles and deputies, accused of the
crime for which they were tried at
! the courthouse and acquitted, were
discharged Wednesday evening as
not guilty. 1t is useless to repeat
the story which came from the
young girl, Vera Clark, and her
alleged wrongs at Pierce station a
few weeks ago. Everybody is ia
miliar with it. II is sufficient to
say, without uncover1ng the nau-
seating details, that her testimony
upon the witness stand disproves
all charges of violence and force
alleged to have been made upon her
person by these men. In fact she
fatty and absolutely contradicted
her own story given to the officers
at Pierce who protected her and
brought her here and by her own
word admits that she was persuaded
and consented to all the indecencies
which occurred; not only this, but
that she had been guilty of sim
liar act before.
The case was tried before Es-
quires Gregory and Sacra, with
Ownby & Kellar as attorneys for
the prosecution and Swlggart &
Spradl1n for the defense, assisted
by Mr.. Reeves, of Fulton. There
was no effort made to condone the
infraction against the public morals
and decency of the neighborbood,
but to acqult these men and exon
crate the county of a horrible CRIME.
The young woman is not altogether
a vicious character, but shows evil
dences of bad breeding and training
and lack of proper sense of right
and wrong. She has already suf-
fered much from her indiscrepancies
and indiscreet actions and the man
tie of charity should be thrown
around her.
This does not relieve the neigh
borhood of a bad odor, but absolves
it from a crime which is hardly
to be contemplated in a civilized

DR.. Eichelberger at Jackson.
DR.. G. W. Eichelberger did not
go to Franklin from this city, as
was stated in The Commercial last
week. Brother Hendrick had an
engagement to conduct series of
meetings at Jackson and was un-
able to go on account of the serious
illness OF his little son, and DR..
Eichelberger was persuaded at the
last moment to 60 to Jackson and
assist in the revival until another
man could be secured. He remain
ed there three days and the Jack
son Wing had this to say about his
last day'sservices:
The service yesterday morning
was one of great help to the church
workers and Christians, the one in
the afternoon a browning event
with the children, and at the night
service the house was packed.
Of all the services none were
more beautifully impressive than
that yesterday afternoon for the
young people. 1t was known
among the little people of the city
that service would be held, and
at half past three the main audi
forum and the Sunday-school
room were filled, hundreds of chill
dren having responded to the invita-
tation. The service was made in
teresting and was very enjoyable.

number went forward for prayer

nation by Giving Osborne House to the
Nation for a Convsiescent Home for
Army and Navy Oficers.

London, Aug. IL. = Saturday in

ing of the nobility, beauty and learn
ing of the United Kingdom and col
onies, of Indian rajahs, colonial pre-
miers, princes of the royal houses Of
Europe, distinguished diplomats and
representatives from every nation in
the world, the crown was placed
upon the brow and the amounting oil
poured upon the breast of King Ed
ward VII, the first of the house of
Saxe-Coburg to reign over Britain.
1t was a memorable occasion, an
event craven deep into the history
of the world and never to be effaced.
1t was consummated in the presence
of a gathering the like of which has
never assembled within four walls.
The festivities in London were
continued yesterday. There were
considerable crowds almost all day in
the vicinity of Buckingham palace
and along the route of Saturdays
procession, viewing the decorations
and watching the flow of notable per-
sonages to and from the various
Thanksgiving services. In the evening
the Canadian arch, which as an ex-
eeptional novelty for Sunday was
brilliantly illuminated, was a great
center of attraction and served to
bring an immense concourse of peo-
pie into the neighborhood.
King Edward and Queen Alexandra
and the royal guests at Buckingham
palace attended divine service in the
Chapel Royal of st. James palace
yesterday morning. At the close of
the service the national anthem was
sung. Their majesties were loudly
cheered by the crowds on the streets
as they drove back to Buckingham
palace.
King Edward has signalized his
coronation in memorable manner
by the munifcent gift to the nation
of Osborne house, one of the favorite
residences of the late Queen Vic
toria. The gift is made in message
TO his people, addressed to Prime
Minister Balfour.

A NEW SUPREME JUDGE.
oliver Wendell Holmes, Som OF the Poet
Appointed by the President to Suc-
coed Justice Gray.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug. 12.-Presi-
lent Roosevelt late yesterday after
noon announced that he had appoint
ed Hon. Oliver Wendell Holmes, chief
justice of the supreme court of
Massachusetts, to be an associate
justice of the supreme court of the
United States, vice Mr.. Justice Gray,
resigned. The resignation of Justice
Gray was due to i'll health. Several
months ago he suffered stroke of
apoplexy, which some time later was
followed by another. He has not
appeared on the bench since he was
stricken the first time. His adj
vanced age-74 years-.told against
his recovery with serious force.
Judge Holmes, whom the presi-
dent has selected as Mr.. Justice
Gray's successor, is one of the most
distinguished lawyers and jurists of
Massachusetts. His career on the
bench, particularly as chief justice
of the Massachusetts, supreme court,
has attracted wide attention. Like
Justice Gray he is a native of Mas
sachusetts. He is a son and name
sake of DR.. Holmes, the poet and
eSsayist.
