TELLS OF SPEARS PROMISE
Edward l.. Clarkson, private secre-
tary to Representative Hobson, testi-
fed that Lawrence Y. Spear. vice
president of the Electric boat COM
pany. told him that his company had
influence with Speaker Cannon and
could use II to help Captain Hobson
TO get on the naval affairs committee,
but before doing so would have TO
know how he stood on the proposition
/ in which he was intere sted-the ques-
ton of submarine boats.
| Representative Butler OF Pennsyl-
vanfa appeared before the committee
and said he had never al any time
spoken to Secretary Metcalf relative
TO the construction of any kind of a
! boat. Evidence was presented showing
that the only Endorsement that Cap
| tain Hobson had for a place on the
| naval affairs committee was from the
| Alabama deIegtion in congress. Repre-
sentative John Sharp Williams, tee
minority leader, had recommended his
| appointment to Speaker Cannon and
| that recommendation had been &C
| cepted.
CAPPS QUOTES FIGURES
Admiral Capps quoted unofficial fig
ures TO show that the English sub
marine boats had cost that country
more than this class Of boats had cost
this government. Regarding the num-
Der of submarine boats this govern
ment could use, Admiral Capps said
the addition of 10 would be by nc
means in excess of requirements for the
defense of the country.
I Secretary Metcalf was questioned
concerning the section of his annual re-
port Of 1907 concerning submarine
boats, including the report Of the
2 board which conducted the trials OF
submarines and which recommended
the adoption Of the Octopus type Of
, boat He said that in the same annua
, report recommendation was m ade fol
! four additional submarine boats of this
same type as those recommended as tn.
result of the competitive tests pro.
vided more satisfactory type was not
4 developed in the mean time That, h.
said, was the only report he made OF
, the subject.

4 To the Judge of the Trigg Circuit
Court: The grand jury of Trigg
county desires to thank the court
for courtesies extended. We have
made a close examination of all the
matters brought to our observation,
with the exception of offenses COM
mitted by the military in Trigg
county. In this regard we were at
a loss to secure testimony, and were
unable to return indictments. We
found the civil officers had been Wig
liant. and all the offenses growing
out of the troubles affecting not on
ly this section, but the entire State,
had been promptly looked after. We
are glad to note that peace. exists in
our county, and we hope it will con-
tinue.

With the Finest Musical At
traction Ever Brought
to the City.
SIX GREAT SINGERS.
Will Appear at Tabernacle
Under Auspices of w.
O. w. Lodge.

Philadelphia" a new musical
historical drama, is creating a sensa-
ton in the East. 1t will be when
presented one of the most spectacu-
lar affairs ever attempted.
The full program of the pageant
ry, the various tableaux and the nu-
merous scenes to show the develop
ment Of Philadelphia from the time
of the early Dutch settlement was
mapped out and orders given for the
making of the many characters.
Frederick Phinney and his assistants
have been at work for nearly four
months preparing the music for the
different chapters. For the musical
end of the program there viii be one
band of one hundred pieces and two
other bands which will participate in
the various scenes on the field.
PLAN OF THE PRODUCTION.
This open-air production-the first
of its kind ever presented in any
American city-will be divided into
several features. The first will por-
tray the Delaware Indians as they
were in primitive days. Subsequent
ly will enter the Swedes, who unsuc-
cessfully barter with the redmen for
the lands between Delaware and the
Schuylkill rivers. Then will follow
the arrival of William Penn and his
followers and an elaborate staging
will show the famous treaty elm
council in the same year that Phila-
delphia was laid out as a city.
From that point, the drama will
proceed to the colonial period, show
ing the city as it was at the time of
the outbreak of the Revolution.
This chapter will introduce many of
the famous characters of those days,
show the town life the student life
at the University of Pennsylvania,
Washington's presence in the city on
the way to take command of the
Continental army at Cambridge,
July 2, IT'S, the arrival of the Brit
ish soldiers in Philadelphia, and will
close with a magnificent ensemble
based on the signing of the Declare
ton of Independence.
The United States subsequent to
the Civil War will be another phase
of the production, and will show
military features which will recall
the exciting days of that period.
Again, in the concluding chapter
will the military be seen in a repre-
duction of one of the battles of the
Spanish-American War, in which
number of the Philadelphia soldiers
will take part.
The historical tableau will be su-
perbly costumed.
Mr.. Frederick Phinney, who has
charge of the music in this produc-
ton, has contracted to bring his ia
nous U. S. Band, with from A to 6
singers, to this city and give a per-
Torrance under the auspices of the
WOW. Lodge Oct. Is. This will be
the greatest musical attraction ever
brought to Hopkinsville.

emit it was useless to present any
charge, but that the matter can still
be investigated by future grand
juries, when conditions are changed
and witnesses can be secured. We
visited the Jail and found it in very
good condition.

TRADE REEVES
Coal Company is Working Its
Mines to the Very
Limit.

CUMBERLAND. Md, Apr. IA
Not in many weeks has the coal trade
been so active in the Georges Creek
field. Last week the mines of the
Consolidation Coal Company, which
employs in this section about 1900
men have been working full time
and the indications are that the pros;
porous condition will continue. The
lake trade has opened up after hav-
ing been closed by ice since Noyem-
Der, and this week the Consolidation
Coal Company shipped to the lakes
alone seven thousand tons. This
company produces about 5000 tons
a day. so the output last week has
been almost record breaker.
Other mines along the Cumberland
and Pennsylvania railroad, including
those of the Black-Sheridan Wilson
Company have also been very busy.
The total daily output of the Georges
Creek field when the mines are busy
is about 1900 tons. An official Said
yesterday: Coal trade could not
have been better this week. We
could hardly have filed any more or
ders. Business has certainly picked
up and we have every reason to hope
for very busy times in our line"

TOWN WIPED Off MAP
SUNDA Y SELLING
LAW OBJECTED TO
On Account Of Its Making a
Part of Monday Some of
Sunday and So On.

An undue. hardship is inflicted by
the Sunday closing law to become eff
fective May &c many saloonists be-
lieve. They all express themselves
perfectly satisfied to have their
saloons closed Sundays so far as sell
ing or giving liquor away is concern
ed. but they complain against that
feature of the law that undertakes
to convert 4 part of Mondays into
Sundays.
The law is intended only to pro-
hfhit the sale and giving liquor away
on Sunday, but 1t states that saloons
shall not be open from Saturday mid
night until 5 o'clock Monday morn
ing and that none. not even the pro-
prietor, shall enter saloons during
that time.
In most bars three to five hours
are devoted to cleaning the saloon for
the next week. This will have to be
done after the saloons open Monday
mornings. This seems to be the
main objection and because the law
extends Sunday several hours, test
Is soon to be made of it in the courts.
Just where the test case will be
brought has not been announced but
1t is thought 1t will he in Wheeling.

The proposition OF Charles F. TIE
ter. and others of Philippi to pur-
chase the grounds and buildings of

of the Institute of meeting held at
the college Wednesday forenoon
Mr.. Teter's offer. which is understood
to be about $4,000, was considered
too low by the board as it is believed
a larger sum can be obtained for the
property. Negotiations are on with
other parties regarding the sale of the
property but nothing definite has
been arrived at so far.
Plans drawn by Architect DAVIDSON
of CHARLESTON. for the Instltute's new
building at Philippi. to which place
the school will be moved. were ac-
cepted by the board. The plans are
for four story building, but the es-
timated cost will not be known until
the board decides of what material
the building will be constructed.
This will be decided by the board at
another meeting to be held in the
near future.
