Trustees Named by Coy. Patterson.

1t is certain that another state insti-
tuition will be located at or near Nash
vile. The appointment Of the trustees
of the reformatory for juvenile crimi-
nails by Gov. Patterson yesterday in
which four of the five trustees were APP
pointed from Nashville, makes it rea-
sonably sure that the reformatory will
be located close to the capital city. In
fact it is known that Gov. Patterson
believes that the location should be
near the capital of the state.
1t is conceded that Gov. Patterson
made good selections, all of the trus-
tees being we'll known and have taken
an interest in saving the juvenile Grim
inals. The following were appointed
trustees: James Palmer, John Fl. De-
Witt, Judge William N. Hart and
Melville Williams, all of Nashville,
and Judge D. d. Bell, of Gallatin.
1t is expected that the trustees will
meet for organization at once and pro-
ceed to the location and establishment
of the institution provided for by act
of the last legislature. The act Great
ing the institution provides only $I0,-
600 for it's establishment for two years
and there are those who believe that
this amount is wholly inadequate. 1t
is feared that because of the insuficien-
cy of the amount that the trustees will
experience difficulty in establishing
the kind OF an institution desired.
Under the law the entire manage
ment of the institution is vested in the
board of trustees composed of five
members and the governor, in addition
the latter being an ex-officio member.
The trustees will have complete su-
pervision of the institution, it being
their dutyto appoint all officers neces-
sary to its proper conduct. The mem
bers are to serve without compensa-
tion but they will fix the salaries OF
the employees of the reformatory.
The appointment of the trustees is
the elimination of long struggle up
on the part of the phiIanthropic organ.
ization of the state which have labored
80 long and earnestly for the establish.
ment of an institution that would in.
sure the separation of the juvenile
criminals from the older and more
hardened ones. Such an institution
has been recommended in the messag
es of almost every governorfor the pas
twenty years. Too much credit can
not be given the Miss Handley, o

Cant. Forests APPOINTMENT.

A couple of days ago Gov. Patterson
appointed Capt. VIM M. Forrest to a
position in the commissary depart
ment at Brushy Mountain.

calculated to give satisfaction to Ten
nesseans, especially the ex confederate
soldiers, as this one, which gives to
the state the services of so distinguish
ed soldier as the only surviving son
of the illustrous confederate leader,
Gen. N. B. Forrest. Capt Forrest,
throughout the war, acted in the Ca
pacity of courier for his distinguished
father. an Office requiring not only
great physical courage, but also quick
decision, ready action and the sound
est kind of discretion. These qualities
Capt. Forrest continues to possess and
that he will fill his present position

But an appointment of this sort does

of the governor that he passes over the
claims of the robust politicians of the
day and picks out this confederate vet
eran as his appointee. 1t proves that
Gov. Patterson remembers that his fa-

accordingly, cherishes deep affection

The Price of Legs.

Is a woman's leg worth more Than a
mans? Doubtless it is to the woman;
but this is not to be considered an an
swer to the question. In a suit for
damages against the New York Central
q Hudson iRiver Railroad, train Of
cars which struck an automobile, caus-
lug Miss Noakes and the chauffeur each
to lose leg, the!?ury returned YER
dict awarding the latter $4,000 dam
ages and Miss Noakes $35, 900 damages.
Why the Distinctions Was Miss
Noakes' leg worth three and half
times more to her than the chauffeurs
leg was to him9 Did the Jury consider
beauty as we'll as utility? Perhaps the
jury reasoned that one. legged woman
is to be regarded as more of marked
down article than a one-legged man.
One.legged men are common. A one:
legged woman is much rarer and a
more pitiful sight. The chauffeur has
to earn his living, Miss Noakes does
not. That is to say, she does not have
to earn her living. We add this SO
that the reader may not think we meant
to isay that she does not have to earn
the chauffer' g livingr Sometimes when
we are not looking the English slips up
and throws us down. We notice that
it does that with whole lot of writer's.
But let us return from these discursive
observations to the discriminating YER
dict Of perhaps all too susceptible iu-
ry which makes a distinction and diff.
ference of $25, 900 between woman's
limb and mans leg. We fail to COM
prehend the reasoning or philosophy OF
the jury. Plutarch relates that tray
eller In Sparta, standing long upon one
leg, said to Lacedaemonion, II do
not believe you can do as much. u
"True," said he, "but every goose
can" Miss Noakes will be forced to
initiate .the goose in this respect, but
so will the chauffeur. But he is not in
society. That makes difference. The
goose lis not stranger in society.
Come to think of it, the jury's verdict
is not so iniquitable. The chauffeur
can still chauff, but Miss Noakes car
no longer dance. When q man loses 9
leg lit is misfortune; when woman
loses leg it is tragedy. A one-legget
woman suggests wounded dove. /
the lawyer let him keep any of it the
chauffeur is probably satisfied with th,
amount named in the verdict. He car
regaId it as legacy. Nashville Amer

COMING SLOWLY BUT SURELY.
General Wave of Financial Depression
Approaching.

Washington, d. c., July 13. That
a general wave OF financial depression
is sweeping over the country slowly
but surely, is fact that many men of
affairs admit, in spite of brave protes-
tations of others that there are no hard
times in sight. Recently this cores
pondent was talking with Senator Ell
kins, since the retirement OF Senator
Clark, probably the richest man in the
United States Senete, and he said that
never before had he found it so hard to
command money for building railroad
lines and making other Developments.
He said that it was difficult thing
now to get Wall Street to accept any
kind of railroad securities in return for
the ready cash, and that he had met
many diffiulties in financing the line of
road he has just comp eted between
Morgantown and Kingwood in West
Virginia.
This statement is the more signifi
cant when one takes into consideration
the character of railroad builder Sena-
tor Elkins is. He is in no wise the
kind of railroad builder who with
little or no Investment of his own,
mortgages each mile of line as he builds
it in order to get money to build the
next mile, and in this way builds q
road on the bonds he issues and then
sells what stock he can, pocketing the
proceeds therefrom, allowing innocent
purchasers thus to hold the stoc k of a
road mortgaged at its full value.
Rather he is the sort of railroad
builder who goes into an undeveloped
piece of territory, buys up all the avail
able land, puts part of what capital be
himself has in it, borrows the rest
completes his road on these funds, anG
when big trunk line comes along anG
wants to get control of this territory
he is readyto sell at figure which nett
him handsome profit The enhance
ment in the value of the lands bough
before the construction of the road al
so brings him in a snug sum. In thi
way Senator Elkins has made most O
his fortune. And while making mill
ions for himself he has made more mil
lions for the people along the lines b.
has built, which aggregate nearly 1 90
miles in West Virginia. This sort @
railroad building has always command
ed ready money, and the fact that nov
the money markets are practically clos
ed shows how tight the Wall Stree
folks are holding ON to their read
cash.
