Some persons like one sort of shoe and some another, but the kind which was desired by Pierre, the French Canadian millhand, has never enjoyed a wide popularity.
 Shoes for Sunday" Pierre stated to the young man who advanced to meet him as he entered the sales room of the big shoe factory.
 He then sat heavily down on one of the red plush seats and allowed the salesman to insert his feet in a pair of bright yellow shoes. When they were fairly on, Pierre stood, moved his feet this way and that, took a few steps. and. shaking his head. sat down again.
 Whats the matter?" asked the clerk. Do they hurt you? Are they too tight?"
 Pierre shook his head violently.

capacity and taking out better grade
of coal than has ever been produced in
the compapy's mine. Mr. Bulkley has
many other mining interests in the state
which of late has kept him so busy he
had no time to visit Crested Butte as
frequently as usual. He has one of the
best zinc mines in the state, that ia
equipped with a hundred ton mill that

and the company are now putting in
several furnaces in this state.
A small plant is operating in Denver
successfully and the company has add-
ed recently, some improvements that
are of much importance and benefit to
the process. Owing to the cheapness of
fuel supply and the abundance of lime
and iron for fluxing purposes the cost
of smelling ores here should be reduced
to the lowest possible minimum price,
should the proper rsmelting plant be
built for the treatment of ores found in
this locality.

Pleading guilty to giving away In
toxicating liquors and agreeing to get
out of the soft drink business, Tom
Mcdonald was Tuesday morning fined
90 and costs In police court by Re
corder Erwin. This was the second
time within a week that Judge Err
win has assessed a fine against Ne
Donald for violating the prohibition
law.
Mcdonald was arrested Monday az
ternoon at his place of business on
South Main street At the time Of the
arrest several young men were in the
place and more than one OF them
ia said to have admitted that Melon
aid had given them liquor. A tub
containing ice and few cold bottles
of malt was In evidence, as was
quantity Of empty bottles. Just hbw
Mr.. Mcdonald could afford to give
away such good brew as he is said to
have dispensed has not been explain
ed, but it probable that back OF his
generosity there was some device for
evading the law.
The case was set for o'clock In
the police court and at about $3.50 NC
Donald, accompanied by his attorney,
r. S. Hopkins. appeared. After some
preliminary skirmishing Mr.. Hopkins
submitted to City Attorney Corey a
proposition for compromise. In view
of the fact that Mcdonald has a wife
and four children, and the further
fact that he agreed to quit business,
he was let of with a fine in the one
case submitted. The police, however
we're confident of making out several
cases against him If he had shown a
disposition to fight the matter through
the courts-
Mcdonald was arrested about two
weeks ago on the charge Of violating
the prohibition law and was found
guilty and fined $4,000 and costs.

REILLY SPEAKS
ON WOODCRAFT
NATIONAL LECTURER HEARD AT
COURT AoUsE-SPLEN-
DID TALkER.

Hon. George w. Reilly, national lee
turer OF the Modern Woodmen OF
America, spoke Tuesday evening in
the Circuit Court room on Woodcraft
and the treatment Of tuberculosis by
the order. Mr.. Reilly is a forceful
and interesting speaker, and showed
marked familiarity with his subject.
In showing the rapid growth Of fra
ternal insurance orders Mr. Reilly said
that there we're now more than two
hundred of these with total member
ship of more than seven million. The
Modern Woodmen, he said, was or
ganized twenty-seven years ago and
now had more than 1000, 900 members.
He congratulated Tennessee upon the
rapid increase in membership say
ing tht during the past month eight
hundred new members had been Sc
cured in this State.
Mr.. Reilly told at some length of the
work being done by the Woodmen in
the cure of tuberculosis at their tent
ed city in Colorado, which is situated
within close view Of Pixies Peak and
the Garden of the Gods Woodcraft,
he said, held it cheaper and more
human, to rescue its members from
the dread ravages of the dread dis
ease than to permit them to die in
want and dispair. Thirty inmates
had been discharged from the home
recently completely cured, he said,
while more than one hundred had
been greatly benefited. He considered
every one Of these cured to be worth
81, 800 to the order. Mr.. Reilly said
that European expert9shad pronounc-
ed the treatment the most scientific
in the world.
The lecture was attended by about
fifty persons.

PULPIT THE SCENE
OF PRIZE FIGHT
SENSATIONAL ADVERTISING BY
DEAcoNs CAUSES MINIS
TIERS RESIGNATION.

ATLANTA, Ca, April 5.-Rev. Allen
C. Shuler. pastor Of the Western
Heights Baptist church. has resigned
and will accept call to Newburn,
N. C. A week ago two deacons Of his
church advertised that they would put
on a prize fight in the pulpit OF the
church before services. When the
time came they confessed that they
made the announcement merely to
draw a crowd They drew the crowd,
also the ire of the pastor, who has
taken this means Of showing his dis
pleasure of the methods of the dea-
cons. He maintains that not only was
the prize fight idea not in keeping
with a church but that the fact that
the announcement was fake was not
honest.

BIG DROUTH At
LAST BROKEN BY
A SPLENDID RAIN
MFTER SIX WEEKS OF DRY
WEATHER }. PLUV.
OPENS UP.
WORTH THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
To the Farming Interests Of maury
county-Vesetation Of All Kinds
Needed the Moisturee-Farm Work
Far Advanced.
tuesdays Daily.l

The first real rain that has fallen
within the past six weeks began TO
descend early this morning, shortly
before daylight, breaking the spring
drouth and enriching the county by
more thousands of dollars than can
be accurately computed.
Once the rain got started 1t came
sIoshing along at a lively gallop and
when II Stacked up about 1880 o'clock
the dust had been laid, vegetation re-
yfyed. and the fresh and fertile soil
left in tip top condition for planting.
II would be impossible to calculate
lust the exact value of the rain in dol
Iars and cents, but there is no doubt
Of the financial value of the precipita-
ton, Grass seed that was sown six
weeks ago still lies in ground
the three have been slow to
bud, gardens are tagging back
the wheat and oat crop are
suffering, and worst Of all the
soil in many places had become too
hard to break so that the farmers had
almost come to standstill in their
farming operations.
That the farmers are further adj
vaneed with their work than ever be-
fore at this season of the year Is gem
orally admitted. The absence of rain
left the soil in good condition for turn
ing, as the spring sun did not shine
with an ardor that would bake the
ground rapidly. Every available team
was put to work, many of the farmers
rebreaking all of their land. AS a re-
suit the soil is admirably well pre-
pared for the reception of the seed,
and the crops will get away with a
rush that will render the task Of cul-
tivation easy.
The drouth that has just been brok-
en- is the worst by far in the history
Of the county, the time of year consid-
cred. For more than six weeks there
has been practically no rain fall, the
total precipitation being about one
fourth of one inch, The pixies were
as dusty as in summer, and the gener'
al appearance of the country was hard.
Nv in keeping with that which usually
characterizes the "Dimple of the Uni
verse" in merry Spring.
