THE GROWTH OF KENEFIC

For three months I have been telling you
about the wonderful growth of Kenefic. Now
want you to this growth for yourself,
In looking over the accompanying photo
graphs, which were taken last week, please
bear in mind that Kenefic was not opened to
the public until the latter part of February,
1910, and that up to that time there not
a single residence store building in the
town. Now brick business blocks and stores
amounting to $4,000 have been completed,
are under construction will be commenced
at once. The total improvements which have
been made in this time amount to well over
100000.
Lots at Kenefio now have an intrinsic
value of many times what they were worth
in February, and yet they may still be pur-
chased for practically the amount of
money. This condition cannot last much
longer. 1t is not consistent with good bust
ness methods. After June 9Th the price of
every foot of land in Kenefc will be in

killing three negroes of a
mob that had besieged them in a
construction camp near Halls bar,
a party of white surveyors and
workmen were rescued today by
Captain Burke and a posse of of
ficers from the local police de-
partment.
News reached Chattanooga late
yesterday that the negroes, who
were armed with rifles, had sur
rounded the whites. The survey
ors had taken refuge behind the
unfinished government dam they
were building. Immediately res
cue party was dispatched to Hall S
bar.
Captain Burke, in charge of
the posse, telephoned headquar-
tiers today that three negroes had
been killed during the siege, which
had been lifted. He stated that
the trouble was over, and that he
and his men would return to this
city latter breakfast"
The trouble between the white
men and the negroes is thought
to have had its origin in an alter
cation between black laborers and
their bosses in the construction
camp.

Listen, You Songbirds Who
Would Go to Paris to Study
Mary Garden, Who Had Terrible
Time of 1t, Says You Should
Have $500 When You Arrive
and Be Sure of $500 a Month
for Three Years.

If you're an American girl with
a voice, and an ambition to make
that voice your career, by all
means go to Paris to study. Paris
likes Americans, and chances for
success there are good, but

That is Mary Gardens advice
to American girls who would be
songbirds. She has told the story
of her struggles in the French
capital to an interviewer, and
she warns American girls that
the way to success does not lie
along the path she trod.
The Mary Garden who now gets
$4,000 night for singing, and
who rides to the Manhattan opera

patroness in Scotland had with
drawn her patronage because of
the slow progress Miss Garden
was making in gaining recogni-

than return home with her pride

But Sibyl Sanderson, then hav-
ing brilliant success, found Miss

plight. Later the girl got her
chance.

month the girl will need" said
Miss Garden in the interview. "She

WATERFRONT
CAST: ON
TRIAL

The trial of the condemnation
case of the Northern Pacific rail-
way against A. r. Titlow and
others for acquiring the water
front at the Wilton waterway
opened in federal court this morn
ing and at noon a jury had been
secured.
This afternoon the jury went
out to look over the ground.
The map submitted by the COM
pany showing the ground taken,
indicates that the company will
take over seven acres of Titlow's
land. 1t will cut through the
strip recently given to the city
for an open waterway and munic-
ipaf docks.
Just what the company will do
on the city's rights in the matter
when it has condemned Titlow's
land and taken it, remains to be
seen.

COMMITTEE
IN MIDDLE

Chaos has resulted in the COM
mittee of twelve through the re-
fusal of w. HI. Dickson to run for
mayor and the whole matter will
have to be gone over again.
A meeting will be held Wednes-
day evening to try to settle the
question.
President George Burke of the
committee expects this meeting
to wind up the conferences. He
is grooming a candidate who he
thinks will be endorsed, but when
he is sprung it is not unlikely
there will be some lively opposi-
ton.
The committee met last night,
but accomplished nothing. w. H.
Dickson has taken the place of
A. A. Hilton by unanimous con-
sent of the committee, Mr.. Hilton
having left the city for time.
Some members of the confer
ence are getting tired, and are
about ready to give the whole
thing up unless the matter is
wound up pretty soon.

are better. Five years are best.
But three years are indispensable.
There is chance for Ameri-
can girls with voices in Paris.
There is a demand for them. Her
beautiful voice and manner and
even her face are appreciated
there. Paris likes nothing better
than an American singer.
And so my advice to American
girl singers is: BE practical.
Cultivate common sense. Don't
let foolish people turn your
heads.
Go to Paris to study if you
can, but wait until you have
enough money for your expenses
for three years. If you haven't it.,
it must be guaranteed to you, so
that you will suffer no disappoint-
ment, as l did.
