PUPILS HAPPY
HOLIDAYS END
PUBLIC SCHOOLS OF COLUMBIA
RESUME THEIR WORK THIS
MORNING.
Academy And Institute Will Begin The
Spring Term Tomorrow
Morning.

Vacation, the happiest time of the
year for those who attend school, is
over and this morning the familiar
sight of children loaded with book
satchels and lunch baskets making
their way to school met the gaze of
all who were on the streets early.
The public schools this morning be-
gan the Spring term after a vacation
of about ten days. Real work in the
schools will not begin until tomorrow
as it will require today to recover
from the decentralization incident to
the long holidays, Aside from giving
out the lessons for tomorrow and 9th
er routine. there was very little done
in the classes.
Those young people attending the
Columbia Military Academy and the
Columbia Institute were little more
fortunate than the pupils of the public
schools because they have another
day of holiday. These Institutions do
not begin their Spring term until to-
morrow, with the exception of the pri-
mary department of the institute,
which resumed work this morning.
The schools at Spring Hill and at Mt
Pleasant and at number of other |
places in the county also resumed |
work this morning, and the schools |
that did not commence the labors of
the Spring term will do so tomorrow.
At the Institute and at the Academy
a large number of the pupils went to
heir homes for the holidays and these
nave already begun to return, many
having come in this morning. 9th
srs will come tonight and by tomor-
'ow morning it is expected that all
will be in their seats.

DEAD LIST WILL
REACH SIXTY
EXPLOSION AT LICK BRANCH Is
MORE DISASTROUS THAN AT
FIRST SUPPOSED.

BLUEFIELD, w. Va, Dec. 31.--For-
ty-eight bodies have been recovered
from the Inflated Lick Branch colliery,
in which an explosion occurred last
Tuesday, and it is not known how
many more there are. 1t was a more
disastrous explosion than was at first
supposed, for the reason that it was
not known how many men were at
work in the mine.
Under the system of checking en-
ployed. the men work when they
please and quit when they please. and
this accounts for the inability of the
mine officials to accurately fix the
number of men in the workings when
the explosion occurred. There is
scarcely any doubt but that the dead
will reach sixty.
The records of the Mining Depart
ment show Mine Inspector d. r. Phil
lips inspected the mine in August, and
his report was to the effect that the
ventilation was good and the drain
age fair; that there was no dust, no
gas, and no dangerous practices on the
part Of the employees, and that the gen.
sral condition and safety of the mine
was god. The findings OF the Mine
inspectors now investigating the ex-
,losion have not been made public.

NO new FACTS
BROUGHT OUT
BY THE TWENTY-sIx WITNESSES
EXAMINED AT UNION
CITY TRIAL.
Alleged Night Riders Are Fairly
Average Citizens Say Their
Neighbors.

UNION CITY, Tenn, Jan. 1.-The
defense in the night rider trials spent
the entire day today piling up alibi
and character testimony, which the
State, in turn, proceeded to demolish.
Witness after witness swore that the
defendants bore good regulations, but
were forced to admit that they were
generally believed to be night riders.
One witness, who swore that the
States witnesses were men of bad
reputation, admitted that he was col.
lecting purse to defray the expenses
of the defense. No one of the TWEEN
ty-six examined told single new
fact.
1t seems probable now that the tes-
timony on both sides will be all in by
Monday or Tuesday of next week.
The jury has become vesy restless,
and was not only averse to an adjourn
ment over New Years Day, but its
members urge lengthier daily sessions
in order that they may get the trial
over in the shortest possible time.
When court opened this morning
Judge Jones said:
This is the first day of the new
year, the glad season of the year when
angels sing of peace and good will, /
and when clean page is commenced
