Missouri, the commonwealth that
has to be shown, is asking the The
atre trust for directions. That pro-
gressiye state has conceived the idea
that theatres are subject to the laws
governing public utilities and the
House has passed bill making 1t a
misdemeanor for any resident mana
ger to refuse to rent his theatre to
any legitimate production. The ex-
ample of Missouri might be profitably
followed by other states, for the ex-
istence of a theatrical trust, the pur-
pose of which is to throttle competi-
ton. is pretty generally conceded.

The Waters-Pierce Oil Company, OF

by paying into the treasury OF the
Lone Star state the colossal sum OF

largest fine ever collected, although
by no means the largest ever asses
sed It would buy Croesus lock, stock
and barrel, and represents more coin
of the realm that the average mind
can conceive Of. It is hardly prob
able that Texas will complain OF de-
ficits in the near future. The Legis-
lature may build "house of graft
or may put it to practical purposes.
But at any rate, it will be fun to
spend it.

NJ the three normal schools viii De
located in Middle Tennessee. This Is
-olumbia's opportunity,
If there is any one thing that It Is
not dcbatable it is the propositloh
hat Columbia should be a school
own. Some question has arisen as TO
whether OF not fl is desirable or posi-
Ia ro secure the location Of manufae-
-urine -lants here. but there can be
ma division of opinion as TO the desit-
.abuitv Of securing additional schools.
The accessible location Of the town
ns moral atmosphere, splendid ell
mate and many natural advantages
make il the ideal place for the foster
ing of educational institutions.
The advantages of establishing a
normal school in Columbia are nu-
merous. It would mean the expendl-
tire of many thousands OF dollars
annually by those who come here IN
search of knowledge. This is the bus
mess end of it. 1t would advertise
the city. This is the publicity part.
And it would create an educational
environment that would have ire
mendous and beneficial effect
both upon the present and fu-
mre generations. This is the
inestimable benefit that cannot be ex-
pressed in words or dollars. It is too
potential for any to guess its full
meaning.
Decades may come and go before
such another opportunity is presented.
Never before in the history OF the
state has educational advancement
reached such a point that the estap-
1iebment of schools for teachers by
the state was demanded. But
statistics show that the graduates
turned out by Peabody college, where
the majority of Tennessee teachers
have received technical training, can
not and do not fill the vacancies that
exist on the public school teaching
staff Therefore, it is incumbent up
nm the commonwealth to fill this want
bv graduating teachers who will go
directly into the state schools. And II
is this that has sent opportunity
knocking at the doors of Columbia
and that should awaken her citizens
to the necessity for vigorous and I'M
mediate action. But the advantage !
will not be all Columbia's. Maury
county will benefit by the establish
nent of the school here, and it should
1e the pleasure of the entire county
O assist in securing it's location. |
The Board of Mayor and Aldermen
and the City Board of Education are
@ be congratulated upon the alert
less that they have already displayed :
With the cooperation of the entire cit
zenship there is no doubt but that
will crown their efforts.

PROGRESS OF WORK
 ON EASTERN CANAL
The Big Ditch Will Be Finished in .
 Month or So.

The contractors for the construction Of the Eastern canal. better known to many as the old Highland. which if Will supplant. have been given an ex- tension of time to November fin complete the work They announce that if no unforeseen difficulty arises they will have finished before that date Out of a possible 237. 900 wards of dirt to handle in the beginning. that being the amount of excavation approximately estimated by the en- gineers. there is yet less than 5O.O00 yards to remove. The ditch is prac- tically completed from the head as far south as it's intersection with the Phoenix & Eastern railroad. except about 23.000 yards at the point where the canal runs out on the mesa.
 This 23.000 yards is practically all rock work, but force of men is working there and will finish within thirty days. though nearly all the ma terial has to be blasted loose before it can be taken out The contractors have 120 mules and about 100 men employed on the entire work. In the meantime the government is pushing its part of the work rapidly. This includes the building of a cement bridge over the canal where it is crossed by the Roosevelt road and the cementing of the lateral heads where they emerge from the main canal.
 It is therefore assured that the ditch will be practically completed and ready for use early in the winter

Sick Headache
 and Indigestion
The Former Is Very Frequently caus-
 ed By the Other.


 The pneumo- gastric nerve connects the stomach region directly with the brain. and when the stomach is out of order the head is almost certain to be affected through the reflex or sympathetic nervous irritation.
 The headache of dyspepsia and in digestion is of every variety from the duIlest and least defined to the most acute pain. Sometimes the whole anguish; at others, the ache is con- fined to the back or front part of the head. The first form is usually of a confused character and is often ac- sompanied by dimness of vision. and mild vertigo, or so-called rush of blood to the head" The victims of this symptom complain of a swim ming" or ''lightness" in the head, and dizziness, or sensation of motion while the body is still, and specks. or flashes of light before the eyes.
 Persons subject to indigestion and other forms of stomach trouble arc very frequent sufferers from head ache, and in numerous cases a sick headache is the only noticeable symp- tom of indigestion present: in others there are stomach manifestations as well.
 The majority of people regard this headache as a separate disease, in- stead of a symptom of stomach-dis- ease. which it usually is; and they attempt to treat it separately. and make the mistake of endeavoring to obtain relief through the use of head ache powders, tablets, pills and seltz- CTS, the use of which is extremely dangerous. as many of them contain such powerful depressent drugs as acetanilid. phenacetine. antipyrine, caffeine, etc, which depress the heart, brain and nerve centers, and lower arterial pressure; and many a person with a weak heart has become dangerously i'll shortly after taking one of these headache remedies. They also interfere with the digestive proc eesses, and actually make the dys- pepsia- worse than before
 --fn- order to get rid of the headache ,of indigestion-and most headaches are caused by stomach trouble-one should endeavor to reach and remove the cause. and the headache effect will soon be relieved.
 STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS do not cure the symptoms; they cure the cause of the headache, which permanently removes the symptoms. They digest every atom of food in the stomach cure all forms of stomach trouble. and the headache, and every other disagreeable symptom and un- toward effect is quickly gotten rid of.
 Don't make the mistake of trying to cure your dyspeptic or nervous headache through the use of headache powders. tablets, etc. Use common sense. good judgment. and one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and you will be agreeably surprised at the rapidity with which the headache will be relieved and cured simpultaneously with the relief and cure of the stom- ach disturbance.

MEDIUM LOSES 17 POUNDS IN 20
 SECONDS

In an article in the october Me ]. Cures on Eusapia Palladino. the famous medium whom he calls the griespair of science, Hereward Caring tor says:
 During the experiments in Milan it was found that the medium lost weight in a ymanner that could in no way be accounted for. The medium and chair in which she was sitting swere placed upon the scales, and stheir combined weight was carefully :. measured She was then watched carefully; to see that she threw noth- -ing away. and also to see that she de- trived no support from the surrounding S Ssurfaces-the floor. etc. Nevertheless. gin the course of from twelve to twenty tseconds Eusapia lost about seventeen and a half pounds in weight At the fifth sitting a similar reduction was observed. under conditions which the investigating committee considered sperfect.
 No one who has seen the effects of a seance upon Eusapia Palladino could doubt it's genuine character, as far as the medium is concerned. At the conclusion of the seance she is faint. dizzy, nauseated, extremely weak. occasionally Vomits, and re- members little that has occurred dur ing the seance: while her face be- comes deeply lined, greenish yellow in color, and appears to be shrunk al most to half its natural size. More over, many abnormal occurrences take place, quite apart from the phenomena themselves. Thus, during one seance. Professor Morselli of Genoa, normally right handed, became left-handed, while Eusapia herself, normally left handed became right handed"

HARTMAN IS
GETTING BUSY
TO UNITE ALL COAST ROADS
Expects to Get all Railroad Lines Do
ing business to the Pacific
Under Traffic Agreement

PASADENA, March IS Not
withstanding all efforts that have
been made to prevent a pooling of
railroad interests and combinations
of railroads. there is evidence today
that e. H. Hartman has in mind a
derstanding in regard to traffic rates
between all railroads to the Pacific
coast that will be greatly to the bene-
Mt of stock holders and that a con-
ference is to be held in which Harri-
man will be concerned more or less
with the plan.
Asked if he expected soon to re-
sumo work on improvements con-
templated before the panic. Harri-
man said that would be just as
soon as congress amends the inter
state commerce law so that the
sti onger roads of the country can
extend their credit and protection
over weaker roads.
He said that at present there is
a clause in the law which prohibits
one road having control over COM
peting or parallel lines and that is
what railroads want changed. He
said it is merely a question of weaker
and stronger. If the stronger are
allowed to help the weaker ones there
will be a great betterment of condi-
tions all along the lines and the en-
ployment of thousands of men and
the opening of many new lines.

BEES HELP
FRUIT MAN
SAYS JESSE ". THORNTON
Fruitvale Apiarist Gives Lecture to
Agricultural Students at the High
SchoOl-Insect Fertilization.

Jesse ". Thornton, the Fruitvale
apiarist and vice president of the
Washington State Beekeepers' asso-
citation, delivered lecture Monday
morning to the students of the class
in agriculture at the high school. The
subject of agriculture has been on the
school list of studies but this one
year. but there are so students now
taking the course, and its populari-
ty is well established.
Mr.. Thornton had as his subject
''The Bee and It's Relation to the Or
chard." He was given the closest at
tention and at the close of his re-
marks answered many questions
The value of the bee to the fruit
grower lies in the fact that the bee
gathers pollen from flowers with
which to feed the young bee larvae
in the hive, and while collecting pol
len. accomplishes the fertilization of
the flowers visited Insect visitors
of some sort are necessary to the
very existence of many species of
plants. and among these insect visit
ors the bees are the most important.
Mr.. Thornton pointed out that
among the Strawberries some varie-
ties have the pistillate and staminate
flowers on separate plants and in
this case the visits of the bee are es-
sential to the production of fruit
In the case of apples and other
fruits where the flowers are perfect,
it is with much more certainty that
fine fruit will be produced. if the
blossoms of one tree are supplied
with pollen from those of another,
land this work bees do.
Moreover the bee having started out
for days work on apples will never
change his mind in the middle of
trip out from the hive. and go to
visiting cabbage plants or almond
tree blossoms and there waste ap-
pie pollen where it will do no good
Experiments have been made many
times which have definitely establish
ed the value of the bee to the Or
chardist and Mr.. Thornton described
the work the bee does in the orchard
in detail.
Mr.. Thornton is the owner Of large
apiaries scattered over the county,

FORTUNE FOR
JAP LABORER
I. YAMATO, SECTION HAND, HEIR
Thinks he Sees i'm Good News n Plot
to Decoy Him Back to the Old
Country.

7. Iamato, a Japanese employed
on the Northern Pacific as a section
hand, has fallen heir to considerable
property and some money as the re-
suit of the death of a relative in
, Japan, according to advices receiv-
| ed from the Japanese consul at Sc
attic. The letter does not state the
amount or value of Yamato's good
| fortune, and it will be necessary for
Yamato to return to his native land
to settle up the matter. Yamato is
past middle age and has been in this
country for ten years. and is not over
joyed at the good news.
1t required long explanations from
| S. Suzuki, an interpreter, to make
Yamato understand the exact ma
ture of the letter. and he seems to
think that it is scheme to get him
to return to Japan. for what reason
he does not know, or will not state
He says that he has no relatives that
ever possessed any property. Friends
intimate that he was one time mixed
up in a political imbroglio in the
Flowery Kingdom. The local Japan
ese colony is making inquiries in to
the matter. Coming from his coun-
try's consul is good evidence of re-
liability of the news.
