ONE ON INNEs.
Enjoys an Occasional Joke on
Himself.

One of the characteristics that
makes Mr.. lines so admired and en-
ioyed by all who meet him, is his
keen sense Of humor. He is full Of
originality and while always ready
to have a joke on some member of
his big company, he no less enjoys
an occasional one on himself. He
tells Of once giving a summer con-
cert in New Jersey. He appeared
on the stage, bowed his acknowledge
ment to the applause Of the audience
and, taking up his baton. gave the
first program number, which hap
pened to be the Preludes by List.
This selection never fails to create a
great burst Of enthusiasm, so he was
not surprised at its completion to
hear the expected applause. After
bowling several times he responded
with an encore. This number too
seemed to meet with the same con-
tinued applause and after few mo-
ments he responded with secord
encore. Innes and his musicians
like all public performers are inspir-
ed to their best efforts by respon-
sive audience but after playing a
third, fourth, fifth and even sixth
encore, Innes began to wonder if the
concert would not develop into an
all night affair. The musicians be-
ing by this time breathless and
thinking to quiet his audience Innes
walked off the stage, but still it con-
tinued; not from one section of the
house, but from every nook and cor
ner. On reaching the wings he re-
marked to a stage hand: That au-
dience is the limit. Never before
have l heard such persistent ap-
plause." What do you rnane?"
asked the man, who happened to be
Irishman. Why" said lines, "the
hand clapping." 'Thot? thot amt
hand clappin', /" replied the Irishman,
"thot's the audience killing mos
quitos."
lines at once went back to resume
his concert, but for the next encore
he played the Mosquito Parade, at
which the Irishman gave him a

of many Nashville people that the
Tennessee Central road may fall into

monopoly. Maj. E. B. Stahlman, in
an interview in the Banner, predicts
instead of failing to exercise the OPP

Southern railway will foreclose the
road and bid it in cheaper, thus
wiping out Nashville stock, and that
they will continue to operate the
road.

The military service in sever
months has cost the State $45, 900,
but Gov. Wilson's equalization
board raised the tax assessments to
bring in 100000 new taxes. This
increase falls mostly upon farm
lands, which he claims have been en-
HANGED in value by more lucrative
prices for farm products. 1t will
thus be seen that the farmers them
selves are paying for the soldiers.

PETTY Thief IS
GIVEN KNOCKOUT
RAPED OVER HEAD FOR STEAL
ING AT MONDAY NIGHTS
FIRE.

During the fire Monday night, Raw
Perciyal, while helping in placing wet
blankets on the Richards building, at
the intersection of Florence avenue
and Main street, noticed a Slav with
his pockets full of groceries which he
had pilfered from the. pile of provi-
sions taken from the store of T.
O'Connell & Sons. The Slav, not con-
tent with the provisions, was pre-
pairing to take an armful of blankets
that Percival and several others were
using in their efforts to save the
building, when Percival raped him
over the head with a piece of wool
the size of picket and felled him to
the ground. The stolen articles were
taken from him and replaced to
where they were taken from, and the
Slav, after short sleep of about fif-
teen minutes, made his way home a
sadder but wiser man. 1t was the
intention of the party to hand the
thief over to the police, but other
matters claimed their attention and
they had to let him go.

the fire apparatus. He was informed
that one of the fire horses had es-
capped and the wagon had not yet
arrived. In company with a dozen
others he rushed to the engine house
to lend a helping hand in hauling the
chemical to the scene of the fire. On
arriving there he discovered Chief
Mckenzie standing at the side of the
wagon with his boots in his hand.
informing the men who had gathered
there that he was giving orders. One
of the firemen was standing on the
platform of the wagon in his pajamas
and the chief ordered him to get into
his clothes. The other fireman was
standing at the swinging doors, which
were closed. The horses were then
hitched and ready to start. The chief
| then mounted the wagon and dashed
to the fire. In response to an in
quily from Assistant District Attor-

was intoxicated, Mr.. Daveler declined
to express an opinion.
Walter Agnew said that at the fire,
while he was assisting to subdue the
flames, Mckenzie had approached
him and called him vile names.
DR.. Hammond said that he gone to
the Miners hospital to dress the cuts
on McKenzie's hand, which had been
received by coming in contact with
the glass windows of the American
saloon, and at that time the chief
was sober.
Ambrose Murphy said that while
he was tieing rope on building
that he, with several others, was go
ing to pull down, Mckenzie appeared
and called him several unmention-
able names and told him to change
the rope from the top of the building
to the floor, where it was impossible
to tie it; even had it been tied there
the rope was not strong enough to
pull the entire building. He als1
said that he was one of the first to
answer the alarm, and was in tha
rear of the Fasset-Mason building be-
fore the flames broke out, and he be
lieved that had the department re
sponded as soon as the alarm waf
sounded the fire could have been
confined to that one building.
i B FIRED Bishop, asked as to the Sc.
briefly of Chief Mckenzie, stated that
he believed Mckenzie to be sober.

testified that they heard nothing as
to misconduct on the part of the fira
chief.

zie struck Paul Mcclure he imm..
diately got between the two men ana

called him a vile name and asked
him why he was Quitting in Cor
