PREACHER GETS WARNING

Chattanooga, June 10.-(Special )-For some time past religious sect calling themselves the Holy Rollers have been holding nightly meetings in a tent at East Chattanooga, conducted by the Rev. MT. Trim. It is alleged that people liv- ing in the vicinity of the meetings are getting tired of the nightly noises, which they claim disturb their nightly sum- bers, often until midnight Sunday night unknown parties placed a bundle of switches at the door of the Rev. Trim, MT. Trim, who has charge of the meet ings. The note read as follows:
 "Rev. Trim-You had better go home to your wife and children and cut out these holy roller meetings. These switches will trim you if you don't"
 No attention has been paid to the threats by the holy rollers, whose night ly meetings continue to attract large crowds of the curious. The holy rollers have been conducting their meetings at various places in this county for several months, and objections being raised on account of the strenuousness of their mode of worship, they are compelled to move on" from place to place. Their manager has been before the courts by the action c/ persons who have tried to break up Ne meetings more than once.
 The taxicab service has been inaugu- rated in Chattanooga. It was formally and officially inaugurated by Mayor Crabtree, who took the first taxicab ride in the first taxicab ever seen in Chat tanooga on Tuesday.
 Reports for May from the office of H. P. Eager, manager of the East Tennes- see Car Service association, show that last month 20, ,46S freight cars were loaded and unloaded in this district This is a gain of 2618 cars as compared to the same month last year, and Is undisputed proof that more goods are being bought and sold in this section.

busily engaged in putting the cables Into place." he continued.
 That 1t Is no small task to put the large cables in position can readily be seen when a person sees them. Six cop per cables are to be used to convey the power to the city and the line towers are 45 feet high. while the tops of the river towers are 200 feet above the earth. The cables to be used are of two sizes. Those that are placed on the line towers are about one-half an inch in diamete. while those across the river are one inch In diameter and weigh one pohnd to the foot. Between the river towers is a span of 14s5 feet so that the weight of one of the cables stretching across the river is almost POGO pounds.

It looks as though something is soon to be done toward a change of somo kind in the water works supply for Chat tanooga. The resolution passed by the city council two weeks ago providing for the appointment of an engineer to pre- pare plans and specifications for the con- struction of a water works plant has been approved by the mayor, after some delay The ordinance providing for the issuance of the water works bonds, amounting to $900,O00, was approved by the mayor last Thursday and nothing is now needed to go ahead with the work. It is probable a meeting will soon be held by the mayor and aldermen for the purpose of taking definite action.

Since the establishment of the rifle range for the soldiers at Fort Oglethorpe in Catoosa county, Georgia, at least one person has been injured, cattle have been killed and several narrow escapes from injury have resulted. This state of af- fairs has become alarming and steps have been taken to put stop to the prac- tice or to force the government to buy a larger area on which to do the target stunts Attorney Payne of this city has taken the matter up and, through Judge Fite, of Georgia, has succeeded In hay ing an injunction issued against Colonel Parker, in command at Fort Oglethorpe. commanding him to stop the firing at the target range Colonel Parker re- spected the injunction and the firing has ceased for the present.

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.
Troubles. A Henderson Citizen
Shows How to Cure Them.

Many people never suspect their kid
neys. If suffering from a lame weak or
aching back they think that it is only a
muscular weakness; when urinary
trouble sets in they think it will soon
correct itself. And so it is with all the
other symptoms of kidney disorders.
That is Just where the danger lies You
must cure these troubles or they may
lead to diabetes or Bright's disease. The
best remedy to use is Doan's Kidney
Pills. 1t cures all ills which are caused
by weak or diseased kidneys. Henderson
people testify to permanent cures.
Mr.. \. 7. Barnes, Rowland St. Hen
derson, \. c.. says: "Doan's Kidney
Pills proved so satisfactory in my case
that do not hesitate to speak in their
favor. As result of my kidneys not
performing their functions properly. l
was annoyed great deal by dull pains
through my back and loins The kidney
secretions were an added source of an
noyance on account of their irregularity
in passage and plainly showed that my
trouble arose from weak kidneys. See

In Memoriam.

The following appreciation of the
life and character of Mrs. Arena Ed
wards is apart of the remarks of Rev
}. W. Frank. her pastor, made ut the
funeral at Union Chapel last Friday:
Arena Nash Edwards was born August
n, 1S41, and died at her home near
Henderson April 80, 1909, aged 81
years, 8 months and ) days She was
the daughter of Robert Watkins, of War
rem county. She was married to McDon-
aid Edwards March %. 1857 They
lived in this covenant relation until his
death several years ago. Mrs. Edwards
was the mother OF ten children. four of
whom preceded her to the grave. The
following children survive her: Ken
meth W. Edwards. Register of Deeds of
Vance county; Prof. Luther B. Edwards,
of Florida; Ernest E. Edwards. of Vance
county; Mrs. Margaret E. Floyd, of
Vance county; Miss Rosa Q. Edwards,
OF Bona Vista Graded School, Vance
county, and Miss Lois M. Edwards, of
the Raleigh Graded Schools. Besides
these she leaves a sister, several grand
children and a large circle of devoted
friends
She became a Christian when about
fourteen years old and Joined the Chris
tan church. After her MARI age, two
years later, she transferred her member
ship to Union Chapel Methodist Protes-
tant church, where it remained till her
death. For half century she had quiet
and pleasant fellowship with noble
band OF disciples, some Of whom have
gone before and others are left to miss
her stately steppings in the sanctuary.
As Christian, she possessed sincerity
questioned by none She was quiet and
unostentatious, yet firm in her devotion
to truth and righteousness With such
record OF answering fidelity to Christ
she had naught to fear as she went into
His immediate presence.
As mother, we have seen what man.
ner of love she bestowed upon her chill
dren. And in reciprocation of this every
child responded with q full measure OF
love and tilial piety
As a sufferer, she drank the cup to the
dregs. In her suffering patience wrought
a perfect work. and her Christening
helped to sweeten her soul. Forty-five
years ago she was given up to die with
a fatal malady. DR.. Gill's skill and at
tention through these forty five years
doubtless had much to do in repelling
the grim monster, Death His devotion

Closing Day at Bobbitt School.
Contributed.

The teachers of the BObbitt School,
District No. 8, are to be congratulated
on the delightful day they planned as a
close to a most successful school year
Pupils and patrons alike spent most
happy holiday. Instead of the customary
children concert there was an address
in the morning and picnic in the after
noon with dinner in the middle as
some youth put it. Everybody enjoyed
the wholesome sandwich.
Rev. j. Marvin Culbreth, OF Smithfield
but whom this community claims as its
own. was the speaker OF the occasion.
His address. delivered at II O'Clock in
the Plank Chapel church, was fine Ell.
fort-it was most fitting in every re-
spect Being preacher, he took text,
which was familiar to all: "A thing OF
beauty is Joy forever" But so did he
clothe it with new beauty and fuller
meaning that it seemed as a new saying.
He held up before the young people Of
the school new ideal of preventative
and constructive beauty, which will
bear fruit in the community life and that
ere long.
The choruses by the school before and
after the address were very pleasing.
The morning exercises over all repaired
to the school house, where a most
bountiful dinner was served. The picnic
spirit was abroad in the land. Ball
games and various field sports had been
arranged for the entertainment OF the
young people, but the rain forced all in
doors where ice cream and fruits were
on sale. The authorities were accused Of
having put in a special plea for the
forced entrance to the ice cream parlor
At any rate they were like Riley g farmer
philosopher, who says: why, if the Lord
sends rain, then rains my choice A
neat sum was realized for the library
and other school improvements
After an hour or more of social pleas
ure Mr.. Culbreth again addressed us. but
this time under the auspices of the Sun
day school Missionary Society. His sub
iect was Missions in Korea" Our
hearts burned within US as he talked
with US by the way on this subject Of
Missions, which is so near his own heart.
