THE CANDY KID

The Bon-Bon Girls, with the new
musical melodrama "The Candy Kid
are big hit in this delightfully."- diff
ferent production which will be seen
for the first time at the Grand Opera
House Friday, Sept 10.
Ray Raymond, who captivated the
audiences last season when he was
seen in the THE Cow Boy Girl" is
the bright particular star and as 'The
Kid" has a role that gives him wide
scope to display his fine singing voice
and ability as comedian. The COM
pany is large one and also includes
the Bon Bon Girls chorus, a charm
ing bevy of young ladies who can
sing, donce as well as look pretty in
many changes of costumes. The play
is strikingly original melodrama and
the cast equal to it in every particu-
lar. Different from plays where spe-
cialties and songs are introduced, the
musical numbers are all original and
were written especially for this pro-
duction. Take your hat off to the U.
s. Marines" one of the bright song
hits is being whistled and sung every
where; there is also seven other musi-
cal dashes that go with vim and great
Iy enliven the performance.

A SUCCESSFUL
POULTRY FANCIER

One Of the prettiest sights about
town IL the view at the Westover
Poultry Yards, of which DIR. A. G.
Dinwiddie is the justly proud proprie-
tor. Dr. Dinwiddie has the happy
faculty of doing whatever he under
takes well; OF putting his best
thought and energy into his work.
The thousands who have heard his
sermons can bear testimony to this,
and the excellent arrangement Of his
poultry yards with their hundreds of
fine fowls bear further evidence.
DR.. Dinwiddie has, confined mis- at
tention to three breeds this season,
the White Wyandottes, the Barred
Rocks and the Rhode Island Reds, but
the whites are his favorites, and 1t is
doubtful if there is a fancier in this
or the adjoining counties who can
approach him in this line. There must
be nearly 200 White Wyandotte pull
lets and cockerels on the yard and
they appear to be almost without ex-
ception perfect. though as all fanciers
know, no fowl will prove perfect on
close examination. However this may
be, DR.. Dihwiddie is sure to get a
number of ribbons at the Fair next !
week, where he will have two pens
of whites on exhibition, and in the
fall shows he will as surely be a
contender. DIR. Dinwiddie
will also show a pen OF Rhode Island
Reds at the fair that should gain
some ribbons. He has an excellent
and five choice pullets of this
breed that will do to enter in most
any show. The Doctors crop of
Barred Plymouth Rocks also contains
! number of good individuals, though
lie will not enter any of this breed at
he fair. DIR. Dinwiddie will devote
lis entire attention next season to
he White Wyandottes.
Mr.. Baxter Williams, who lives
ext to DR.. Dinwiddie also has some
ice fowls chiefly >Leghorns, Barred
Jocks and Reds. Y,

CONTRACTOR
UNDER ARSE 7
FRANKLIN MAN HELD ON CHARGE
GROWING OUT or GRAD
ING CONTRACT.

John r. Smith, the well-known con.
tractor and railroad builder, was car
ried through Nashville back to Frank.
lin under arrest last night on a charge
of attempting to obtain personal prop
erty by false pretenses- Mr.. Smith
was arrested in Nashville yesterday
morning by City Detectives Marley
and Woosley, but the city attorney
decided that the warrant was legally
defective, or that the charge made
was not a crime, and Mr.. Smith was
released.
Later Mr.. Smith left the city over
the Nashville Chattanooga and st.
Louis Railway. but in the meantime,
1t appears, another warrant was Sc
cured and Mr.. Smith was arrested at
Murfreesboro and brought back to
Nashville. Sheriff E. w. Church, Of
Williamson county, came up from
Franklin and left on late train last
night for that place with Mr. Smith in
custody.
When Mr.. Smith was brought back
here last night he retained as counsel
M. T. Bryan and w. H. Washington,
and those two gentlemen were at the
police station sfor two hours or more
last night in consultation with their |
client. Mr.. Smiths name was not
on the police blotter, as be
was merely held there at the request
of the out-of-town officers.
The warrant grew out Of the con-
nection of Mr.. Smith with the Nash
vile Interurban Railway, the line that
1t is proposed to build from Nashville
to Franklin, Columbia and Mt. Pleas
ant. Only one contract has so far
been awarded for the building Of the
line, and that was for a section of five
miles just outside of Franklin, and it
was given to Mr.. Smith.-Nashville

CO. PARTIALLY DESTROYED.

The plant of the Alabama Copper
Co. of Montgomery, Ala. of which Mr.
A. B. Rains is proprietor. was partially
destroyed by Are Friday. The fire
started in the roof, presumably from
a spark from the smoke stack. The
plant was valued at $4,000. and It is
thought the $4,000 insurance carried
will about cover the loss. Mr.. Rains
is having the debris removed and will

AMMUNITION NOT GUARDED CLOSELY

Washit gton, March I2.-Tnat
ammunition used in infancy rifles
is not guarded as closely as has
been claimed 10y discharged negro
soldiers and thatit is possible for
soldiers to obtain extra ammuni-
ton was brought out in the
Brownsville inquiry to-day before
the Senate Committee en- Military
Affairs.
This testimony was given by
Captain d. w. Kilburn. of the
twentieth Infantry, which pre-
ceded the negro soldiers Of the
Twenty-fifth Infantry at Fort
Brown.
The same witness declared that
citizens Of Brownsville made
threats that they would run the
negro troops out of town if they
were brought there to supplant
white troops and on this point he
was COrroborated by Lieutenant
Edward Thompson, who was
Quarmaster OF the same regiment
at Fort Brown.
On cross-eXaminatiOn by Sena-
tor Warner the witness SAID that
It was not difficult for a soldier
TO obtain a few extra cartridges
nor was it unusual for soldiers to
lose one or two from their allow
anCe. He said that the inspec-
ting officers could not always be
exact III counting the ammuni-
ton. When soldiers lose ammu-
milton the cartridges are charged
against them, but the witnesr
said that they were only tried for
Negligence when they became
chronic losers.
Lieutenant Edwin Thompson,
also of the .Twenty-siXth Regi-
ment, testified that he heard re-
marks derogatOry to the negro
soldiers at the time the order
was promulgated sending them to
rownsviile.--Norfolk Landmark.
