Charley Nelson narrowly escaped serious
injury on Sunday evening. Between six and
seven O'Clock Walter Westund had rum
away within the village limits. The driver
was thrown out in the south part of the
village, but the horse continued with the
buggy to the county road running east and
west, and then headed south again. When
it reached the corner near the mill Mr..
Nelson attempted to stop it, and in his
endeavors the horse and buggy ran over him.
He was knocked down and badly BRUISED
but fortunately without more serious results.
The marriage of Chester Roy Strong and
Miss Helen Christine Rudeen occurred at St.

Considerable shock threshing has been

reports brought in show yield of from 3
to 6 bushels of wheat to the acre. 1t is
reported that Robert Borgstrom living
north of town had one field that went 20
bushels to the acre, but that was the best he
had. Not much OF the wheat will grade

below that.

INSTRUMENTATION
CAUSES DISCUSSION
HISTORY OF THE DIFFICULTY.
SOME THINK PRIMARY SHOULD
BE POSTPONED UNTIL LEGAL
QUESTION is SETTLED.

Ensley, September 23.-(Special ills the
Tuxedo annexation legal? This is the
question which is occupying the minds of
the citizens Of Ensley Until the matter
Is settled the political status will continue
to be rather shalxy. There are a number of
prominent men who live In this section
who cannot enter the coming primary on
account of the uncertainty of their legal
residence. The matter will not be decid-
ed until December. The primary will oc-
cur October 49, What is to be done?
1t will be remembered that after the
new constitution was adopted by the state
Tuxedo was annexed to Ensley under one
of its provisions, but when the city at
tempted to collect taxes many of the cit
liens refused to pay. The land was put
on sale to pay for taxes and part of it
sold. f. B. Mcwilliams secured an in
junction against the city and this brought
the matter into the courts. 1t was claimed
that the new territory was Illegally and
irregularly annexed to the city and that
the proper notice was not given before
the act was passed by the legislature. and
that the act is unconstitutional in that
1t seeks to annex and extend the city
charter contrary to the provisions of the
constitution. The case finally reached the
supreme court and will be settled in De-
cember.
Meanwhile the politicians are uncertain
what stand to take. Some claim that the
executive committee should postpone the
Urinary until next January Others sug-
gest that those who live In the Fifth ward
can hold out of the primary, but enter ON
a separate ticket in the February cleo
ton. II is a live issue, and is causing con-
siderable discussion.

REVIVAL SERVICES
THROUGH THIS WEEK
Rev. E. E. Hendrick Holding Daily
Services at Cumberland Pres
byteran Church.

The revival which is being conducted by
A. l.. Carter will continue through this
week at the Cumberland Presbyterian
church, with services at 1890 a. m. and
s p. m.
At the services yesterday morning there
were six additions to the church. Twelve
were converted at the mems meeting in
the afternoon at the Jefferson theatre. and
five at the church last night
One of the most effective sermons
which the Rev. Mr.. Hendrick has deliv-
cred was that upon the text: "Remem-
Der Lots Wife, He first spoke of what
Lot lost by pitching his tent toward
Sodom. Lot lost his property, his FAM
lily, his good aims, his honor, and his
home" said the preacher The remainder
of the sermon was devoted to Lots wife.
1--WE should remember her privileges, she
had good home. Remember her warn
ing; she was faithfully warned. Remem-
Der her sim she presumed to disobey God
Remember her fate she was struck dead
in a moment"
This was an earnest appeal for people
to follow the Lord in all His word and
plans. The central idea was that a man
who does not follow God has a hard road
to travel.
During the services the Rev. Mr. Carter
sang MY Mothers Prayer" by request
Special music was rendered by male
quartette. Large crowds attended all the
services.

OF THE NEWS
FOR THE COMING WEEK

Although the situation in Cuba has not
rotary Taft, and has If anything become
more serious, the Secretary has not given
up hope that peaceable settlement may
be found without disturbing Cuban indie
pendence. The Secretary however, has
not SO far announced his plans, and the
action he will take probably depends on
the attitude of the moderate and liberal
leaders within the next few days.
There is an impression In Havana that
the American plan for peace will include
the retention of President Palma in Of
flee. but will provide for the election of
a new congress or in lieu of that, for
the reconstruction of the cabinet. This
impression is without official confirmation.
Pending a settlement the American
warships in Havana harbor are able to
land men in addition to those now on
shore up to the number of 1000 If neces-
sary to protest American lives and prop

as she exclaimed:

The two other women left the store
