Street Destroyed By Fire.

There was another fire in Columbia
Saturday night. This time it was at
the residence of Henry Stephens, on
9th street and the house was entirely
destroyed 1t is not known how the
fire originated, but it was burning
rapidly when Mr.. Stephens awoke and
he had barely time to escape with his
children. Mrs. Stephens not being at
home. The fire was discovered at 12:15
and in short while not only the
house, but the stable. smoke house and
chicken house were all in ruins.
There was $500 insurance on the house
and 800 on the household goods, but
it is said this will not cover the loss.
Very few of the household effects were
saved.
The tiremen also had run Sunday
morning. A cabin belonging to Ed
Green opposite the Cottage Hotel and
occupied by negroes, took fire. but the
firemen were soon at the scene and ex-
tinguished the blaze with the cheml-
calls before much damage was done.

Tullahoma. Tenn. Oct. eat
came out here yesterday that Allan
Parker, Cashier OF the First National
Bank. of this city, was missing and
was short In his accounts to the
amount OF $35. 600. 1t was thought
that ne might have suicided, but to-
day he appear ed and surrendered him
self to the officers. He had been in
hiding near town. but finally decided
to surrender and accept the conse-
quences of his acts. He says that his
trouble was brought upon him by spec
ulatlon in the Chicago bucket shops.
Besides being cashier of the First Ma
tional Bank he was deputy collector
of Internal Revenue and handled about
$50. 600 of Government funds month.
It is not yet ascertained il there is any
deficit in his official accounts
Allan Parker came to Tullahoma
many years ago from England-in
fact. he was only mere child when
he arrived here. where be has spent
nearly all his life. Though in very
humble circumstances, he had by close
application to business brought himself
up to the top round In this communi-
ty. He was looked upon as ore of
Tullahoma's most prosperous citi-
zens, always in the front when it
came to advancing the welfare OF this
entire section. always ready to assist
in any local enterprise which pIomi-
sed to benefit the town. in fact. any
scheme that had Allan Parker's in
dorsement was looked upon as a sure
thing, and went night along. Forty
eight hours ago the name of Allan
Parker to any enterprise was a guar
antee that it would be honestly and
faithfully administered today the
work of lifetime has gone down in
ruin.

Ouarles left Fisk, leaving wife and
three children behind, and ran away
with his Lasater 81 daughter. and be
wanted to Know il he was still in jail,
and If his daughter was here with him,
and If 90, to hold him until he could
hear from, him again.
There is young woman Ill the city
who has been staying here since 2usries

at the Jail, and claims to be his WIFE
Ouarlee admits that she is the daughter
of Mr.. Lasster and that she came here
from Alabama with him. He also al
mits that he has wife and three chill
dren in Alabama and that be has never
heen divorced from her. 1t is not known
whether he has been married TO the

sordinr to his own confession he is
fbieamist, and from the feeling displayed
n the matter by Miss Lasater's father
he will probably have to answer an IN

that he was sent to Pratt's minis tor

SOUTHERN
FARMER
Gives Recent Maury County
Fair a Big Write Up.

The October number of the Southern
Farm, published at birmingham.
writes up the recent big Maury O. unity
Fair:
There was held at Columbia. In
Maury county, Tennessee, during the
last week OF September one OF the
greatest old-fasboined county fairs
that the south has seen in many day.
II was model for every county in
Alabama, and if one like 1t was held
IN every ngIessoinal district in this
state annually it would do more to
revolutionize farming in Alabama
and renew the interest in this state In
good stock and good horses than any
other influence available.
"A representative OF the Southern
Farmer was there. and enjoyed every
minute of the four days entertain
ment. There was no evidence OF osten-
lation. The grounds and building are
not elaborate nor costly; there were
no hardwood cases to hold the splendid
samples of the products of the Maury
county fields and gardens no fancy
cages to confine the perfect specimens
OF hogs, stock and poultry. There were
no padded stalls nor ribbon necklaces
for the uueenIy bred jersey cows. nor
fancy trappings for the magnificent
specimens of horse flesh, the product
of this best of southern counties. Inc

II for itself alone. that it has not the
slightest bearing on the plot. that it is
aggressively over-accented, may all be
charged justly against it Miss
George Lawrence's fashion of playing
the part rather conduces TO its effect of
aggression. Mr.. Fitch has given Miss
Shindle more good lines than any 9TH

scious Miss Lawrence is Of her respop-
sibility in delivering them So fearful
is she that A word may be lost that

Mr.. Fitch's points are going to be
missed if Miss Lawrence knows it,
Emphatically, however. the character
is played in an admirably right key.

who wants to marry the other man.

eye that have won him his millions on

CHAPPELLE JUDSON'S SINCERE ART WORK

Now, if marshes be not to your liking,
there's the "Afterglow," where the
flaming sun, sinking into the great cav
ernous west, throws it's lurid light into
the pale clouds and Furnishes the
white-caps with liquid fire. And white
the foam is, that has frolicked far up
on the sandy shore.
The Gray Day" tells another story
OF a storm lowering over the sorrowing
expresses of Monterey. Low and dark
ling are the clouds, chill and damp is
the air, forlorn and shivering are the
bent Expresses whose weird arms
stretch out beseechingly to the storm
king.
If the "Afterglow' symbolizes
warmth and gIadness and the fulIness
of ripe maturity, then is The Gray
