NEGRO FOUND IN
DYING CONDITION
GEO. TROTTER SHOT THROUGH
BODY AS RESULT OF ROW
OVER CRAP GAME.

George Trotter, a well-known negro
who has been driving the town sprink
Ter for the past four or five years, was
found sweltering in blood at an early
hour Sunday morning near Young's
gallery on Ninth street, with a bullet
hole entirely through his body. Sew.
eral negroes are under suspicion, and
while two arrests have already been
made, these arrests are simply incl
dental to the shooting and the right
party is not yet in the tolls.
The trouble started over crap
game at the home of Mary Jones, col
ored, in tin cup alley. Trotter and
two other negroes left the house quar-
reling just before o'clock in the
morning. As the bell began ringing
shots were heard At 5 o'clock a
butcher boy passing along the street
found Trotter and notified the officers.
The negro is in a critical condition
and has not been able to furnish
much information on the affair He
will probably live The Jones woman
and one other negro are in jail and
the officers are on the outlook for
others engaged in the game

ROSENTHAL HOME. ALSO

P. Erwin on Sixth street All the
members of the two homes were
watching the parade and the robbers
were able to ply their trade unmo-
Tested.
The Rosenthal home was securely
locked and no one understands how
the robbers gained entrance, as the
house was still locked when the fam
lily returned. They secured a string
of gold beads, two pearl pendants,
four rings, a diamond bracelet, two
watches and $500 in money. The
was taken from gold beaded
purse worth $500 but for some rea-
son they did not take the purse.
At the home of Mrs Erwin the
robbers secured a fine watch belong

Who would have imagined some
years agone that the defeat of Jc
Fuzzle would cause weeping and wall
ing and crashing Of teeth in every
barroom and around every brewery
and distillery in Tennessee! Who
would have thought that the cause Of
Temperance would triumph by his
fall, and that every drunkard's
wretched wife and starved and ragged
children would have cause to thank
God that the people had denied him
the power to perpetuate their wretch
edness, Even if he had been yictori-
Gus, it would have been a victory that
would have covered his gray hairs
with shame.
TO have made his last fight against
Cod and Home and Native Land!"
10 have closed his restless career in
an EFFORT to gain little Office at the
cost of the ruined lives Of men, the
broken hearts of women, and the
starved souls of little children! TO
have been willing, yea eager, for a
little brief authority" to vote a meas
ureless curse upon his people!
1t is shame enough that he tried
to do it--that he, who was once
a leader in the cause of right
should have become a
petty subaltern under the black flag !
of the Whisky Power in the army of
corruption! Yes, it is shame enough
that he tried-let him thank merci-
full constituency that saved him from
a deeper shame! Let him bless the |,
ballots that rescued him from the
odium Of having struck the cause OF
God and Home and Native Land" in
the crisis of its battle.
That cause will go on to victory.
The last vestige of law that gives
sanction to the liquor traffic will be
swept from the statute books OF Ten

him that 1t triumphed without his
hid but let him cherish the consola-
ion that he did not, because he could
Tot, turn its victory into defeat.

ANNUAL CONTEST
WITH B. & H.
GAME ON ACADEMY FIELD NEXT
SATURDAY is ARoUslNG
MUCH INTEREST.

Local foot ball enthusiasts are look
ing forward with much interest to the
game on the Academy field Saturday
between Branham & Hughes and the
Columbia Military Academy. The
game between these two schools is al
ways the most important and inter
esting Of the series. The strong
rivalry between the schools, the fact
that both schools are in the same
county within twelve miles Of each
other and the boys are acquainted to
/ some extent encourages the interest.
I The attendance at this game is al
ways large and whether the game is
played at Columbia or at Spring Hill
many always attend from the visiting
school and community.
C. NJ. A. has never defeated Bran
ham G. Hughes in any of these con-
tests though they have come perious-
~ near to it and it was the opinion
last year that they should have won
at Spring Hill had they played in their
usual form Neither school has quite
as good a team as last year. C. M. A.
has been putting up game fights, but !
has so far not been able to win |
victory. B. & H. has not been play
ing up to old time form, and in fact
to the outside observer the B. G. A.
team, which was here last Friday,
appears to be some better than Bran
ham & Hughes. B. & H. is lighter
this year than usual, but whether it
is as light as c. M. A. is questionable
OF course both teams are going af
ter the game and will put up their
best article of ball. The G. M. A.
team is in better shape than at any
Tine this season. Hoyle, who has
been out Of condition for several
weeks, will be in the game at right
ackle and will add materially to the
strength Of the team. Clark, who
played crack ball for the last few
minutes of the B. G. A. game, will be :
tent in at quarter, and is sure to keep
he team moving up to their best
itch. Prof. Sheriff. of Massey, has
een chosen as referee, but the UNI
ire has not yet been selected.

Perhaps most of the scolding done
in the world is between husbands and
wives or between parents and chill
dren Parents must instruct their
children they must sometimes reprove
them. They must often counsel them.
But they are in great danger Of "pro-
voking them to wrath'-in the wise
Biblical phrase. Children have the
keenest possible sense of justice;
they are also very easily hurt; and
when their minds are bruised the re
suit is enlargement, and that is as
sad a thing as can ever be. An i'm
perious, scolding father or mother
frightens the children away, drives
them into all manner of evasions and
subterfuges, and brands their minds
forever with the memory Of cruel and
blistering words Claudius Clear
