FEW CRIMINALS
CAUGHT In MAURY
TOTAL ARRESTS IN CITY TWEEN.
TY-EIGHT-NINE IN JAIL
IN AUGUST.

Things have been very quiet among
the criminals of this county during
the past month, only ten people being
Jailed during the month of August. In
the city only twenty-eight arrests
were made, and none of these we're
made for serious offenses. None of
the county's arrests were made for
grave charges.
There are five negroes in jail now,
all of them for minor crimes. One of
them was placed there by United
States Marshal for selling liquor with
out license. The report of the City
for the month of August
shows very good cndition in the
city.

SPLENDID QUALITY
OF MULES BROUGHT
TO THE CITY TODAY
PRICES RULE HIGH AND THE
BUYERS ARE VERY
NUMEROUS.
GOOD DEMAND FOR THE COLTS
One Spring Mule Sells for $50.
Large Crowd in Columbia and the
Merchants and Bankers Are Doing
a Land Office Business.

Mule Colt day today is one OF the
biggest that Columbia has ever
known. While there have been days
in the past when more mules were
brought to town than were on the
streets today, there have never been
a better class Of muues here and the
price is ruling exceptionally high.
Buyers are numerous and are pay
ing literally for the right sort of
mules and most of those on the
streets seem to be of the best char
acter. One mule colt sold for $3.50
and while this is an exceptional price
it is a fair sample of the values today
Good mules are bringing in the neigh
borhood of $500 and many of them
are going over that point.
An enormous crowd is in the city
from all sections of the county and
many foreign mule buyers supplement-
the county buyers and all of them
are buying. Some of the handsomest
pairs seen here in some time changed
hands at almost record prices.
Merchants are doing a thriving bus
mess today. The banks are simply
deluged. The deposits and the pay
ment of checks are keeping every en-
ploye as busy as bee. There liz ev-
cry outward appearance of the pros
perity of the people in the signs of
the day.
Farmers are Dragging of good crops,
prices are fine and general prosper !
ity and peace and plenty smiles over
the hills and the valleys of Maury /
county An estimate of the mule
today is impossible to !
obtain at this hour but it is believed |
that not less than 600, may be 200
more, will change hands. The total
money consideration will doubtless
20 far above 100000

LARGE CROWD TO
WITNESS OPENING
ORPHANS HOME
SPL ENDlD EXERCISES INAUGU-
RATE CoUNTYS MODEST
CHARITY.
ELOQUENT SPEECHES ARE MADE
Music One OF the Features OF the oc-
casion-Barbecue Served to All
Who Attend-Dr. Dlnwiddie and
Mr.. Boil Speak.

In the presence of large crowd,
many of them from a distance, the
Tennessee Orphans Home, the magnif-
cent charity of the Christian church
of this city and friends from other de-
nominations was formally opened at
noon today. The event was a most
suspicious one. 1t celebrated the
completion and the opening of one of
the noblest charities in the State OF
Tennessee. 1t was the browning event
of great campaign of love and devo-
ton to the interests of humanity. 1t
was the triumph of the unselfish la
bors of the best men and women of
the community to take care of the lit
tie ones, to tighten the burden of those
who cannot help themselves.
The interest of the public, not only
here but elsewhere, was attested by
the large attendance. Delegations
came from other towns whose people
had generously given to the aid of
the home. From some of these towns
rooms in the home had been endowed
and furnished.
The program today was a most in
teresting and appropriate one. Flo
quent and inspiring addresses were
delivered by Rev. Robert H. Boil, OF
and Rev. A. G. Din
widdie, of this city, pastor of the First
Methodist church. Both paid eloquent !
tributes to the unselfish labors and
the generosity Of those who had made
this charity possible.
The music was a notable feature

of the occasion, the song service be.
ing under the direction of Prof. w. p.
Morton, and well did he direct the
singing. The rendition of America"
was inspiring.
In addition to the addresses by DIR.
Dinwiddie and Rev. Boil, short adj
dresses were made by Mayor Biddle,
w. C. Salmon, Of the City Board of Ed
ucation, and others. All of them
spoke of the splendid work for human
ity that was being done in the home.
A prominent figure in the exercises
was Elder w. T. Boaz, the pastor of
the First Christian church here, to
whose untiring efforts, unselfish devo-
ton and self sacrifice, more than TO
any other, is due the credit for the
establishment of the home. No one
could fail to observe the quiet salts
faction that his countenance express
ed at the successful conclusion of his
labors. The Orphans Home has been
the theme, the constant effort, the
dream of Mr. Boaz for the past year.
With one of his ability and push and
determination behind the movement
failure was simply impossible.
The inmates of the home made
striking picture at the exercises to-
day. Intelligent, bright faced and
well dressed they made an argument
for the home more eloquent than any
words of any speaker

LOWERING THE MAIN
WATER SUPPLY PIPE
BIG UNDERTAKING
LARGE FORCE OF HANDS AT
WORK ON WEST SIXTH
STREET.
MAY CUT OFF The WATiR SUPPLY
Real Problem Will Be Faced Whea
Task Of Cutting Through Solid Rock
on the Knob Is Reaehed-Must Use
Dynamite on bitches

A large force of hands is at work
lowering the main water supply IipO
on West Sixth street This pipe In
being placed lower in the earth foE
the reason that the grade of the street
is being reduced by the city. The un-
dertaking is a very difficult one ana
great care must be exercised to pre-
vent leaks or breaks in the pipe.
The main supply pipe that luns
from the river to the reservoir at the
head of Sixth street is located ON
this street. 1t is the pipe that fur.
nishes every bit of the water supply
for Columbia. 1t must be lowered
from one to two feet. However, for
much Of the distance the pipe is set
in the soft clay and the ditch is mere.
ly dug under the pipe and it is let
down.
But when the workmen get to the
top of the hill on Sixth street above
the residence of former Mayor Brown
low they will face sure enough prob
lem. There the pipe runs thro Ugh
solid rock for considerable distances
and it will be necessary to blast in
order to lower it. How this is to be
done without cutting off the entire
water supply Of the city is q problem
that is causing Superintendent Rob
inson of the Columbia Water & Light
Company many waking hours.
The water superintendent realizes
the Importance of an uninterrupted
water supply for a city the size of Co
umbia and he is trying in every way
20 devise plan that will obviate the
necessity of cutting off the water for
sven a day. However, when it comes
o blasting ditch through solid rock
t must be confessed that the prob.
EN- is not one of easy solution.
1t will perhaps require almost a
month to lower the pipe and close up
he ditch to where the solid rock be-
,Iuo 81 IudJ lOlho uCOu nv DO6tI az
nee to accustom themselves to doing
without water. And it may be that
he city authorities will not be ready
0 reduce the grade at the top of the
ill this fall in which event there
5ould be no danger of cutting off the
yater until next year.
OF course there is a PROBABILITY, al
lough not strong one, that the wa
sr supply will be seriously interrupts
d while lowering the oipe from
Ugh street to the foot of the big hill,
ecause a pipe may break in replac-
lg it or any of half dozen accidents
lay occur However, in that event
lie interruption in the water supply
ould be for only a very brief Pc
3D.
A slight interrution of the water
ring the cool weather or in the
my season would not prove any
ing like the serious inconvenience
at it would during the summer when
e weather is hot and dry and il re-
Tres more than twice the water ia
pply the people that it does In the
Il and winter
