FINE ebert BED.
One Worth Thousands of Dol
lars FOund by County
Work Hands.

During the work Friday on the
road being built from the Theta pike to
the Santa Fe pike in the Twentieth
Road District, the county work hands
dug into great ebert bank right in the
middle of the road which is said to be
the finest ebert ever discovered in
Maury County.
Judge w. o. Gordon brought sam
pie of the ebert into town Saturday, and
everyone who has seen it say it's the fin
est ebert they have ever seen. Esq. r
II. Guest, who has had much experience
as street overseer in this city. says he
has never seen anything like 1t. Esq.
James A Sanders of Neapolis, who was
also in the city Saturday, and who has
had much experience as a road builder,
says it's the finest ebert he has ever seen.
The bed is very large one and is
anywhere from 30 to so feet deep. Judge
Gordon says there is enough of it to
build pike from Columbia to Nash
vile. He thinks the bed will be worth
several thousand dollars to Maury coun-
ty.
Samples of the ebert were left at the
Herald Office by Judge Gordon. and
anyone desiring to see it can come and
do 80.

Audience.

The Fisk Glee Clubs entertainment
at st. Paul A. NJ. E. Church Friday
night was pronounced the best musical
entertainment ever given in this city
by colored people. The church was
packed, and large crowd stood ont.
side during the entire program. Quite
a number of white persons were pres
ent, and so delighted were they with
the magnificent singing of the Fisk
singers that an effort was started this
morning to have the Glee Club come
back to Columbia some time next week
and give an entertainment at the
opera house. Some of the best white
people of the city were present and
they declared that no singing has ever
been heard in Columbia like that of the
Fisk Jubilees.

CLOSE CALL FOR
SID DOOLEY.
Night Policeman has Desperate
Encounter with Bad Negro.
FIRED AT WITH SHOTGUN.
Bursting of Cap Saves officers Life
Latter Beats CALVIN Moss Head
Up in Early Sunday Morn
ing Difficulty.

Policeman Sid Dooley had desperat,
fight at an early hour Sunday morning
with negro named Calvin Moss, at the
latter's cabin near Walkers coal yard
90 South Garden street. The negro
shot at the officer twice with shotgun
and the latter fired his pistol three times
but none of the shots took effect. A
fist fight followed, in which the negro
got the worst of it, Dooley working Oh
his head with telling effect with the
butt-end of his pistol.
About 2:30 o'clock Sunday morning
the telephone at the police station rang
for officers to go to negro cabin near
Walkers coal yard and quell disturb
ance. Policeman Kinnard and Ed
Lamar went to the place but found that
the negro had gone, after having raised
row with his wife and son and threat
ening to kill the latter with a shot gun.
The officers made search but could find
nothing of the negro, and returned to
town. About four o. clock another call
for the police rang over the telephone
from the same place, and Policemen
Kinnard and Lamar again went out.
As they started through the alley from
South Main to Garden near the coal
yard. three pistol shots were heard close
BY The officers broke into a run and
the next minute arrived at the negro
cabin and found Policeman Dooley in a
hand-to hand tussle with the negro
Moss The negro struggled desperately,
but was finally overpowered and taken
to the city jail and locked up.
When Dooley tried to arrest him he
resisted and threw his gun in action and
pulled the trigger. Fortunately, how
ever. the gun cap bursted, and the gun
failed to fire. 1t was this only which
perhaps saved the officer g life.
The negro succeeded in firing the gun
on second attempt, but missed his
mark Officer Dooley then fired his
pistol three times at his antagonist, but

.CHILDREN'S DAY
SERVICES.
Or. and Mrs. n. NJ. HamiIl Conduct
Interesting Services at FIRST
Methodist Church.

DIR. ii. NJ. Hamlil, who has charge OF
the Sunday school work OF the Tenn
essee conference, spoke at the FIRST
Methodist church Sunday at Il a. m.
In an impressive talk he depiored the
fact that in most churches the Sunday
school membership is very mucn less
than the number of church members.
| The absence of the adult members of
the church, he said, is especially notic-
| able. He urged that special effort be
made to correct this state of aft airs.
| He also appealed to the parents Of the
church TO interest themselves in the
spiritual condition OF their children.
There is tendency at the present time
to ignore this most important matter
which is much to be regretted.
The Sunday school, since its object is
to assist the parents in this work,
should receive their hearty support.
DIR. Hamill then cited Susanna Wesley
as an example to modern mothers 10 the
careful training Of her children
Another point TO which he called the
attention of the parents is the necessity
of having their children attend the
preaching services, AS well as the Sun
day school
III this was said with such earnest
ness and force that it could not fail to
find a response in the hearts of The
Christian parents present.
At three p. m. DIR HamiIl again spoke.
He first illustrated the modern methods
liz Sunday school by giving the Passion
as be would give it were he teaching IL
Sunday school class.
He reduced it to simple outline,
easily understood and remembered.
Mrs. Hamill then spoke on Primary
Work IN the Sunday school The two
things most important in this work are
to have trained. spiritual teacher and
to give her secluded, sunny place ia
which 10 do her work. Spirituality
is the most important characteristic.
and should be the first consideration.
She spoke of the impossibiity of hold.
ing the children's interest without
variety in their exercises and absolute
freedom from interruption.
In this department of the Sunday
school she considers the Cradle Roll
rs most important factor 1t serves
rs hold upon both children and
DR.. Hamill then spoke of methods
# ingatherlng scholars, such as the
Cradle Roll, the Home Department,
nd house to house visitation.
The services were then closed, oW ing
o the threatening weather.

Next Monday.

pany of Confederate Veterans:
Dark s Mill, Tenn, May 30.
The Maury County Company of
| Confederate Veterans Will meet in the
Circuit Court room Monday, June g.
at O'Clock, p. M A full attendance
is desired, as business of Importance
in preparing for the grand reunion at
Nashville, June 14-15-16, will come
before the Company. This will be the
last meeting before that occasion and
should attend it, Railroad fare from
Columbia for round trip is only 81. 10
and with rations and lodging free even
the very poorest old Veteran can at
tend. This is the last grand reunion
that is likely to be held in Nashville
for many years, and Tennessee pride
should help us to do our best to make
this one great success.
The arrangements are being made
for the Veteran Uniformed Companies
from Maury, Giles and Lawrence
Counties to lodge together at the
Howard School building and march as
one body in the grand parade on the
10th. It is hoped that all old Veterans
will attend, as even with full at
tendance of the survivors there will
be but thin ranks. 1t is sad to think
how few remain Of that gallant Army
that fought and retreated from Nash
vile with Gen. Hood forty years ago
But as their number decreases their
love for each other increases, and we
look forward with pleasure to again
meeting our old comrades. BY order of

"I herewith write out in full the be.
ginning and end Of that terrible disease,
eczema, which caused my babe untold
suffering and myself many sleepless
nights.
"My babe was born seemingly fair,
healthy child, but when she was three
weeks old swelling appeared on the
back of her head, and In course of time
broke. 1t did not heal but grew worse,
and the sore spread from the size of a
dime to that of dollar. / used all
kinds of remedies that / could think Of,
but nothing seemed to help; In fact, It
grew worse. Her hair fell out where
the sore was, and feared it would never
grow again. 1t continued until my aged
father came on visit, and when he
saw the baby he told me to get Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment right away.
ITO please him did 80, and to my
surprise by their use the sore began to
heal over, the hair grew over 1t, and
to-'lay she has q nice head of hair, her
skin is as fair as lily, and she has no

Nervous Depression.

Summer months are peculiarly the
months of nervous diseases, especially
nervous prostration and other depressed
states of the nervous system. People
who are not at all inclined to be nervous
or suffer from weak nerves find this
time especially trying. Sultry heat
and electrical disturbances of the at
mosphere are probably the cause OF
this.
lnvalids need to be particularly care
full to fortify the nervous system by
the use of Peruna.
