Immense Crowds Attended

Sunday Night.
THE HORSE RACE
One of the Best Sermons
Ever Heard at the
Tabernacle.

Just what have been the results
of the Holcomb meetings cannot yet
be determined. DR.. Lyon, the pas
tor of the Methodist church, an.
nounced Sunday afternoon that
there would be large accessions to
his own and many of the other
churches of the city. He said that
the pastors would be handed a list
of converts who would unite with
their churches. The Christian
church will have an addition of near
ly 20 members, and the Baptist and
Presbyterian churches were also
mentioned in the same connection.
Mr.. Holcomb preached his great
sermon, They're Off," to 1900 or
more people Sunday afternoon. Ex-
preston from those who heard it
justify the assertion that it was one
of the finest sermons ever delivered
in the tabernacle. Some assert that
it was as fine as Sam Jones' sermon
on "The Black Horse"
Sunday night the evangelist
preached to a capacity house on
Heaven. The crowd has been es.
timated at from 4,500 to 5000, some
saying that it was the largest ever
seen in the tabernacle. Mr.. Holcomt
was at his best in both sermons

COUNCIL MOVES
ON CUMBERLAND
Takes Steps to Require the
Company to Buy a
Franchise.
ORDINANCE REVISION.
Street Sign Boards No Long
er to Be Allowed In
the City.

The city council met in regular
session Friday night with all mem
bers present except Councilman
Armstrong.
The report of the committee on
revision of ordinances was received
and was made special order for a
meeting to be held next Friday night.
The finance committee reported
that the accounts of Treasurer A.
w. Wood for 1906 were correct and
he was given his quietus for last
year.
An emergency fund of 500 was
placed at the disposal of the Mayor.
An ordinance was passed forbid
ding loose board advertisements on
the streets or sidewalks of the city.
The Mayor notified the council
that he had revoked the license of
Wellington Berry, COL, who oper-
ates a pool room on Seventh street,
to take effect Feb. %.
Chairman Twyman, of the street
committee, was directed to proceed
at once to enforce the new ordinance
requiring the trimmingof trees that
obstruct street lighting.
The account of the City Light Co.
for January was allowed. subject to
correction by the finance committee.
| Deeds to the new street from 18th
| to 21st, to be known as Harrison
street, were accepted from the Hop
| per heirs and the Forbes Mfg. Co.
The council instructed the city
attorney to prepare an ordinance de-
claring the Cumberland Telephone
and Telegraph Company a nuisance
in HopkinsviIle and imposing a fine
upon it every day it continues to
run without franchise. The Cum
berland's franchise expired in 1902,
and it has since continued to operate
without having purchased a fran
chise. This is the home office of the
company. and in 1904 it agreed to an
assessment of 5000 on its intangi-
| BILE property which it has since re-
fused to give in. 1t last week
brought suit to recover 5000 paid on
the 1904 assessment with interest,
holding that the assessment has since
been held to have been unlawful.
The ordinance to be reported will be
similar to one recently passed in
Elkton under which a compromise
was effected, the Cumberland agree
ing to buy franchise in the regular
way.
