MERIWETHER
lie WIS
Mrs. Goodlett Commissioned
To Confer With Governor
OF Oregon About RemoV-
al Of His Body There.

Gov. Cox has commissioned the ven
! cradle Mrs, NJ. c. Goodlett to go to
| Portland to confer with the Governor
of Oregon relative to proposition to
remove MerlwetheI Lewis remains
from this State to Oregon, where they
would be inferred in prominent site,
and the Oregonians would erect over
the grave an appropriately handsome
monument.
Mrs. Goodlett S family is the nearest
of kin to that of Meriwether Lewis,
ana she is authorized to speak Tor the
survivors on the subject of their dis
tinguished kinsman body beng taken
from Tennessee soil to a distant State
Some days ago Gov. Cox received d
com muniUatIon from the Governor of
Oregon on this subject, and, having
sought an interview with Mrs Good
lett, as one OF the near relatives, he
appointed her commissioner to take
charge of the matter and treat directly
with the Governor of Oregon. Mrs.
Goodlett will, accordingly, leave the
city III time to reach Portland on Sept.

ginia, which was the State of Meri-

friend and patron, ana under whom he
served as Secretary. In furtherance OF
this plan Mrs Goodle5t will write TO
the Governor of Virginia on the sub

what steps the state or citizens of
Virginia would probably be willing to
take In the matter. She will also
write to President Roosevelt to see II
he can suggest a more appropriate spot
for the bones OF the distinguished deao
to rest.
MIS-. Goodlett s interest IN the mat
ter is very active, as 1t is on all public
questions, and apart from that she
feels the soliGitude of kinswoman.
From Portland she will probably go on
to San francisco to take paIt in the
annual general convention of the
Daughters of the Confederacy. Mash

BURGLARS IN TOWN

For several days it has been alleged
there are set of thieves at work, who
are frequently seen on the streets after
midnight leaning up against telephone
posts or fences, apparently waiting
around for all to get quiet that they may
get in their work. The house of Mrs.
Ida Moore, on North Main Street, was
robbed Monday night of fine ham and
other eatables. The bloodhounds from
Lawrenceburg were called for, and some
tracing was done, making it too warm
for a negro, who, although very regular
ly employed and quite busily engaged at
one of the mines, took to other chimes
without leave. and is now at large. The
actions and trailing by the dogs have
placed suspicion very strongly on the
escaped.

DOES IT PAY?

There was a round billion dollars
spent in the United States for adverts-
ing last year. That was more than The
corn crop, wheat crop, cotton crop or
hay crop was worth, and even more than
the coal bills for the entire Union for a
whole year This is evidence enough to
the most skeptical that advertising GER
tainly does pay, and that handsomely,

THE LIFE OF TRADE

Advertising is the very life of trade.
Occasionally a merchant remarks that
he hasn't anything to advertise. It's a
great mistake. So long as the doors of
any business house are open, just so
long should every merchant have reg
ulsr talk through the paper. Just as
soon as the merchant himself becomes
lax about pushing his business, so sUon
may he expect the public to become in
different.

Colonel Thomas Narrow Escape.

Col. S. s. Thomas is recovering
from the effects Of a severe fall re-
ceived one day last week, While
coming down the steps of one of
his large corn houses, the Colonel
missed his footing and fell to the
floor, wrenching his hip and bruis-
ing his back. Mr.. Thomas is a
very robust man, and his weight
made his fall more severe than il
would have been to a lighter man,
but such a fall is dangerous to any
person, as a heavy blow on the
spine has caused many cripples,
We are glad to know that Mr..
Thomas is recovering from the
fall, and hope there will be no III
after-effects.

that he should be placed under
