Tennessee State Fair Poultry
Show Sept. 21-2o to Be
a Big Event.
Breeders Coming From Ev-
cry Section of the United
States.

The poultry exhibition at the Ten
nessee State Fair this fall will be one
of national Importance. The poultry
breeders Of Tennessee realize that a
great central show, such as at Hag-
ertown, Maryland where winning is
of great importance to the breeder,
is needed at some central point in the
south, and inasmuch as Nashville is
situated right in the very center of
the great Southern poultry field, and
the Tennessee State Fair, where the
attendance runs close to a quarter of
million people annually, presents
such magnificent opportunities for
such a show, they have decided to
get behind this exhibition and make
it the equal of any show in the
United States.
The management of the Tennessee
State Fair has received letters re-
Gently from breeders in nearly every
state east of the Mississippi River
and number of Western breeders,
/ saying they are coming to the show
this fall with their birds. 1t is safe
therefore, to say that the hopes of
the Tennessee breeders will be real
lied, and that Tennessee will have the
distinction of having not only one OF
the largest, but one of the best quail
ity shows in the Union.
There are twenty or more associa
tions in Tennessee, all of which are
actively at work in the interest Of
the State Fair show, and the contest
between these associations will be
made a prominent feature. The pre-
MUM list this year is a liberal one
and many attractive specials will be
added.
Nashville is one of the best mar
kets for pure bred poultry in tn
: country and the Tennessee State Fai
presents an opportunity to the breed
er to advertise and sell his stock tina
l is possessed by but few shows in tn
United States. Not only this, but
winning at the State Fair Show is
valuable asset to any breeder. Pre-
MUM lists, entry blanks, or any in
! formation concerning the Tennessee
! State Fair Show may be had of tn
superintendent of the Poultry De
partment, Mr.. John A. Murkin.

Letters Show That Physicians Slayer Was Man of No Ordinary

Philadelphia, July S.--Realizing that the man suspected )f poisoning Dr. William Fl. Wilson of this city, by sending him a bottle of poisoned ale on Friday of last week is now well out of the jurisdiction, the authorities today decided to abandon their policy of secretiyeness and made public the letters in the case in the belief. that it might aid them in their search.
 The letters which have been refer red to in a general way several times show that the murderer of Dr. Wil- son was a man of no ordinary intelli- gence The following is tho decoy let ter sent to the Wilson house.

CLERGYMAN FOR
 DEATH PENALTY Rev. George Buck, of St. Johns Episcopal Church, North
 Guilford, Strongly
 Favors It. CAUSE OF THE OPPOSITION False Conception of Our Love to Our \ Fellow w-Men'--Death Penalty
 Alone Will Protect Public.
CAUSE OF THE OPPOSITION

Rev. George Buck, of St, Johns Episcopal church of North Guilford, strongly favors capital punishment for murder In letter to the Journal Courier under the caption The Death Penalty" he says, in answer to an edi- torial in this paper following the hanging of Washelesky and headed Thou Shalt Not Kill"
 For some years there has been a false conception of our love to our fellow-men; consequently the death penalty has been opposed by many
 Thou shalt not kill' has its divine penalty (Gen. g, @. Noah was the representative of mankind, and the reason given for this penalty was For, in the image of God, made He man" Consequently this must hold good for all time. God made this law, and His love for man cannot be questioned
 Revenge has no hand in It's execu- ton.
 By our civil courts the person who Is accused of murder is taken out of the hands of his accusers, and not un- til the accused Is pronounced guilty is he made amenable to the law. The death penalty alone will protect the public against the murderer
 Nothing will stay the hand of the homicide but the fear of certain deatl himself The reason why the public is not protected in this country Is the fact that this penalty is not carried out in more than one case in ten an( when imprisonment for life is substi. tuted 1t is often followed in a few years by pardon.
 If the friends of the murderer have sufficient wealth the just punishment of the crime will be thwarted, on thu plea of temporary insanity, or some other plea.
 There ls another reason for thi penalty Christ. the Word (who gav' this commandment and it's penalty) was made man Himself He was tn, Jncarnate God in our flesh, and H, has now the same humanity pleading for us before the Feather. Shall w spurn His command. and set up ou Judgment against His. and stigmatiz obedience to Him as legal murder? {? The so-called Christianity of to-da. that would do this is not worthy o the name.

Bacon.
 Murphy's counsel endeavored to show that Murphy, who fired two shots at the balloon, supposed 1t to be a toy, but the state attorney insisted that this claim was untenable, that Murphy's act was wanton one, committed from pure recklessness and was to be com pared with the mischievous turning of switches in front of trains.
