washington, d. c., Dec. S.-Seyeral
score of civil service reform advocates
among them several who have given
the best part of their lives to the fight
against the iniquitous theory that "to
the victor belongs the spoils" have
rounded up in the national capital for
the Gath annual meeting of the Ma
tional Civil Service Reform League.
The meeting opened this afternoon
and will continue through tomorrow.
President Roosevelt, who was one of
the pioneer members of the league,
will receive the visitors at the White
House and in all probability will take
occasion to say a few words to them
regarding his views on civil service
reform.
During the meeting a number of in
teresting papers will be read. among

Elihu Wisdom, the white man who
shot and instantly killed Rev. A. j.
Brooks on the old military road between
Mt. Pleasant and Enterprise on Christ
| mas Eve 10 1901, was placed on trial in
the Circuit Court Wednesday on the
charge of murder in the first degree.
Wisdom made his escape i'm
mediately after the killing and was cap
tured only few months since.
The killing was the result Of an old
fued between the parties. They lived
on adjoining farms 10 the old 18th dir
trict and few months before the kill

Brooks, who was both farmer and
preacher, had fine hog killed. Cir
cumstances seemed to fix the killing
upon the VISIONS and proceedings were
instituted before Justice of the Peace
against Elihu Wisdom and his brother,
but friends INTERVIEWED and the case was
not prosecuted. Wisdom, however, is
said to have warned Rev. Brooks if he
ever spoke to him he would kill him.
The parties met when Wisdom was
returning home with some friends.
Brooks is said to have addIe ssed
the whole party IN passing. saying
Good evening gentlemen, where

his pistol and fired three shots into
Brooks body, accompanying the shots
with the exclamation. ''D-n you.

The Chicago Tribune says that
legislation forbidding the playing of
foot ball in Illinois, Indiana, Mich
igan and Wisconsin is being urged
by James Francis Rowley, 6515 Kim
bark avenue, whose son, Jane s
Francis Rowley, Jr.. died from in
juries received in game on Nov. 5.
For one, we should like to see that law
extended to Ttnnsssee; and for more
reasons than one. This alleged "sport''
is not only dangerous to limb and life.
but it is being carried to an absurd ex
treme by nearly all the preparatory
schools and colleges Of the country.
The faculties, with few exceptions, use
their foot ball teams to advertise their
schools, and from the opening in August
or September, until the closing of the
season on Thanksgiving Day, about all
you can read or hear about the school
work, is what the coach" says. From
q money standpoint that is fine adver
tising scheme. and from fun stand
point, it delights the boys, but from an
educational standpoint. it has no merit,
and from . financial standpoint it is an
outrageous injustice to the parents who
foot the bill, and who send their boys to
school to learn to wrestle with mathemat-
ios and the languages, and not with each

Unlawful killings are becoming dis
tressingly frequent in the good county
of Maury. 1t begins to look as though
the public good demands a few legal
b sngings. 1t has been long time since
the severest penalty of the law was en-
fore d against murder in this county,
and it has not been for the lark of op-
portunity. either. The legal death of

After Thanksgiving comes Christmas.
This year the Herald purposes to issue
the largest Christmas edition evel
gotten out in Columbia. And, as il
our custom. the Herald Company will
give one-half of the gross receipts to
the Herald employees. as a Christmas
remembrance.
We hope the friends of the men who
make the paper. those who desire to

nothing for material used or any Other
attendant expense. hut pays all the
expenses and gives one-half of every
dollar to ''the boys.
This Christmas edition of our Daily

Christmas Day, and will be sent to
all our subscribers, both Daily and
Weekly. and to several hundred beside.

advertisements looking for sugges-
tions. Not daring to ask any ques-
tions of any body, hut hoping TO read
of something. they kow not what, that
will fill very special order.
When prospective buyers know what
they want they generally know where
to look for it. But at Christmas times
they neither know what they want,
nor do they know where to look for il,
and in their helplessly they turn to
the advertising columns of their local
paper.
The trade last year ten days before
Christmas was immense. Conditions
are better this year than then. And
II favorable trade conditions may ts
relied upon, the trade this year will be
enormous. Our best merchants are
expecting it and are preparing for it.
