shots had been fired the revolver failed

them said, You haven't fixed it,
Landmesser, who had been sitting on
the ground. pointed the revolver
away from him and pressed his finger
on the trigger. The Joel o started
to run away from the pointed gun.
There was a report n he fell on the
ground shrieking from pain. He's
shot. he's shott'' shouted the other
boys. They gathered around him and
lifted his head. He looked around
pitifully and said in a weak voice.
Don't tell my mother. I'll be all right
in a little while"

BIG SHAKEUP
EXPECTED BY

Several Superior Officers and
Many Minor Functionaries
to Be Transferred.

JERSEY CITY, Nov. 25.-Many men,
bers of the local police force are on the
seat. There will be a meeting
tonight of the Board Of Police
Commissioners, Inc a big shake-up in
the force Is looked for. 1t is under
stood that In addition to wholesale
transfers of superior officers and patrol
men at least one n probably two.
captains will be appointed.
City Hall Custodian Frank Hague
has been working hard to have Lieu
tenant Joseph Richards, of the Seventh
street station, promoted to a captaincy.
The ask has not been an easy, as
much opposition developed against
Richards among the members OF the
department. Hague, however. 1t was
said last night, had won over Mayor
Wittpenn, and that means hat Rich
ards will be promoted, though from
what can be learned, Commissioner
Mitchell. the Republican member, will
protest against such action on the
grounds that there is no need for an
other captain, and that if n must be
appointed there are other lieutenants
more capable and more entitled to con-
sideration than Richards.
Although there are only v pre-
cincts in the city there are ten cap
tains. Two of these have been given
the title OF inspector. another is in
charge Of the detective bureau, inc a
fourth captain is stationed at police
headquarters at night with practically
nothing to do.
Among the transfers to be made, &C
cording to report, will be that of Cap
tain johnson from the Montgomery
street to the City Hall station. 1t is
understood that Captain Cody is to be
returned to the Montgomery street sta
ton, though there are some who think
he is to be given some berth in police
headquarters. Captain Cody Enjoys the
reputation of being a thorough police
man.
These are only g. few of the many
changes that are contemplated.

ciety in particular. He showed clearly
that the absence of such law would be
impairing in lamentable degree to the
welfare of the State, and would go SO
far as to interfere with the progress OF
civilization. In other words, its alb
sence would create vacuum for igno-
rance, an enemy to higher development
and cooperative competency. He gave
definite reasons for this argument. The
siren strains of sloth and lassitude are
too much for the majority-the road to
education looks rocky at o distance. In
such case the effectiveness of COM
pulsory law becomes evident. In con-

liable preliminary remarks, made re-
view of his side of the question in
straightforward, argumentative man
ner. His discourse was based upon the
spirit of liberty and he did abundant
justice to it. He showed his audience
that such law as his opponents clam
ored for was both unconstitutional and
undemocratic. America is the haven
Of illimitable freedom, and its people,
fostered under the conditions OF liberty
and the pursuit Of happiness, won't
stand for law which says do this and
do that. Such a law would be de-
structive to the national welfare mas

than no law at all. In an elaborate
manner he explained why such a law
would not be enforced The right place,
he intimated, for the individual who
will not attend school unless forced

such a person attend the modern school
with the resolution OF not contentedly
expanding himself to- the developing

laws would surely foster in him, the
chances are that he would develop into

There is no other organization in the
world that keeps so much splendid ma
chinery in forceful, helpful motion with
so little money as does the Woman S
Christian Temperance Union through
the local, State, national and world wide
organization. This year more money
than usual is needed, and lie has been
decided by the National w. G. T. u.
and the most of the States including
Tennessee TO give the people an oppor-
tunity to help meet this important need.
The day chosen for the Gift Day is
Saturday, March 10. In every place
where opportunity has been given the
people have generously responded to the
Tag Day plan Of raising money for
charitable purposes, and we believe they
will be quite as generous in giving to a
society which does SO much AS the w.
G. I. U. to prevent and alleviate suffer
ing, sorrow, dependency and delin-
quency. Local UNION.

George Taylor.

George Taylor, son OF Mrs. ]. B. Will
son, was born in Obion County, Tenn,
on the 10th day of March, $780, His
father died when he was little boy OF
seven years and left him the only living
child of widowed mother whose SUI
preme thought was that her son might
have the very best advantages in his
preparation for life. He spent his early
days on the farm where he was born I'M
til his mother moved to Union City in
1902. At this place George remained
in school until the vacation of 1905,
when he began working in the grocery
business for J. P. Adams. In the au-
tumn of 1908, when his mother was
married to Mr.. j. B. Wilson, of Ken
ton, George went with her to live in
that town. The last of July, 1902 he
returned to Union city and worked in
the laundry with Mr.. Cunningham un-
til he took sick on Oct. Z. He was then
brought back to Kenton, where he died
Oct. IS, 1909.
In Kenton, as ne had previously done
in Union City, he made many friends
who seemed to appreciate the noble
qualities of his character. And l would
say that, although he was not over-ex-
pressive of his affections, yet his friends
were held in high esteem in the warm
est places of his heart
The greatest virtues Of his, as of all
other lives, were those inculcated from
his personal contact with Jesus. He
vowed his allegiance to the Christ and
joined the Methodist Church at Union
City in his early teens. In 1908 he
transferred his membership to Kenton,
where the writer became his pastor and
remained so until the day of his death.
How deeply the principles Of Christian
ity had been wrought into his being
will never be known to us this side of |
eternity, but his statement to his uncle
on his deathbed is an echo of his faith
and enough to give us very great com
fort. When the final hour had come |

Connors and Ingram Win.

Debate No 2 in the race has gone to
the Epsilon Rios. This time it was
landed by Connors and Ingram. Har-
rison and Mitchell, of the Alpha Epsi-
Ions, were their opponents As expect
ed, a good sized audience greeted the
young orator.. After the rendering Of
two keenly enjoyed recitations by Misses
Carmen and Clara Parks, three judges,
Miss Martha Fowlkes, Rev. Stewart and
Prof. Rulings, were chosen by the con-
testants
The debate was opened by Ingram,
who spoke at length upon the national
demand for compulsory laws in regard
to education. He showed in his argu-
ment that Tennessee in particular need
ed such law, as the lamentable in
crease of illiteracy within its borders re-
vealed With cursory eulogy Of edu-
cation he showed what potent factor
it was in building up the State and in
creating means for the welfare of socie
ty, and why it was impossible for there
to be any civil progression without it.
After he had retired, Harrison came
forward and in a clear, concise manner
spoke upon the question in new light
the injury that compulsory attendance
law would do. In the first place he
showed that the right-thinking parents,
the parents who love their children and
know beyond doubt what is good for
them, would be in themselves the com
pulsory school law to their children,
and were real attendance law enforced
it would interfere with the home and go
so far as to become bondage This
would cause discomfort, and discomfort
is not at all conducive to growth when
within the ranks OF society.
Mr.. Harrison also remarked upon the
question from standpoint of being UNI
constitutional, and confirmed the asser-
ton by reading an Article of the Con-
stitution of the United States, He read
a personal letter from an instructor in a
neighbor State where compulsory
school law had been in effect great
many years. The instructor himself
could not see where such law had any
laudable effect upon the growth of that
particular State.
After the first speaker on the negative
side Of the question had retired, Con
nors took the platform and picked up
the proof where Ingram had left off.
Connors' argument was characterized |
by its usual tact and vigor. As an ar
dent advocate for compulsory attend
ance law he intensified and confirmed !

Couple Remarked.

A quiet but impressive wedding cere-
mony was solemnized last evening at z
O'Clock, at the home OF the bride, when
Rev. ]. A. Nichols, pastor of the South
Royal Street Baptist Church, in his usu-
al happy and impressive manner, said
the words that united Mr.. Ellis Tatom,
oil Union City, and Mrs. Kate Patter-
son, of $50, East Lafayette street, this
city, in the holy bonds OF matrimony.
The groom is an expert interior dec
orator by trade and has the ability of
winning for himself the friendship and
esteem of all with whom he comes in
contact with his striking personality
and gentlemanly bearing. He is
brother of Mr.. John Tatom, of this city,
popular Mobile & Ohio railroad en-
gineer, and of Col. w. G. Tatom, who
was the commanding officer OF the State
troops in the Nightrider disturbances at
Reelfoot Lake when Captain Quentin
Rankin, of Trenton, was murdered.
The bride has been resident Of this
city only a short while, she having
moved here from Union City about four
months ago, but in that length OF time
she has won for herself many warm
friends with her womanly graees and
personal charms.
This is the second marriage OF this
popular couple, they having been d.
vorced some time ago. 1t seems, how
ever, that Cupid interviewed and that
they never forgot their first love for
each other, which resulted in recon-
ciliation and their. happy re-marriage
last night.
Mr. Tatom will move to jackson and
he and his wife will reside here in the
future, Mr. Tatom entering some bust
ness here. They will be at home to
their friends at 500 East Lafayette
street Mr.. and Mrs Tatom will be
welcomed by the citizens Of Jackson, as
residents Of the city jackson Sun.
