NEWSBOY DIES;
LEAVES FORTUNE
SAVED PENNIES AND ACCUMU.
LATED $4,000 LEFT TO
HOME.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-George Ben
nett, Chicagos oldest "newsboy"
died wealthy because the one ro-
mancce of his life ended 35 years
ago when he was poor.
Benefits death came a few days
ago at the age of 70 years and after
he had accumulated fortune of $50
900 by selling newspapers and relent-
lessly saving the pennies.
A love affair at Wooster, Ohio,
three and half decades ago, caused
him to abandon that town the day al
ter his sweethearts father had told
her that she could not marry poor
man like Bennett.
There and then, according to his
half brother, C. M. Lovett, who arriv-
ed in Chicago last night from Woos-
ter, Bennett declared that he would
accumulate fortune and he vowed
at the same time that no other wo-
man would ever help him enjoy it.
Bennett lived in a room for which he
paid SO a month and ate where he
could get his meals cheapest.
When he died none of his relatives
could be found. He had signified to
w. G. Austin, a business man, his
intention of leaving his money to the
newsboy's home. He had also told
him the story of his love affair.
Bennett left no will so far as Is
known.

CONDITION OF
FIFTH STREET
is ALMOST IMPASSABLE IN
PLACES-NEEDS At
TENTION.

The portion of Fifth tsreet be.
tween North Garden and North High
treets is probably one of the heaviest
used streets in Columbia and its pres
ent condition is abominable. AS a
matter of fact the present condition
was brought about by the heavy
huckster wagons that bring produce
to the Barker Prodce Company. At
this busy place of business there are
many thousand dollars worth of tur-
keys, chickens, eggs and other pro-
duce, raised and produced by the
county, handled each year, and it is
almost impossible to get into the
house with large load of stuff And
besides making it bad for Mr.. Bar
ker and his customers, it is a rough
and ugly picture that presents itself
to the people of the town and bad
advertisement to the stranger that
visits the city and passes that way.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Dec. 22.-Henry
Watterson spoke tonight at the Good

tration with especial reference to
the treaties between England and
France. Leading citizens of Mem
phis occupied the platform in nonor
of the occasion, and the auditorium
was filled with admirers of the speak.
er and those interested in the Ques.
ton under discussion.
Mrs. Watterson joined Mr.. Waiter
son here, having arrived few hours
in advance, and they were visited in
their suite at the Hotel Gayoso by a
number of citizens during the day.
Mr. Watterson refused to talk on
any question aside from the one he
is lecturing on. He had nothing to
urge, he said, except peace, and he
would say all he had to give out on
this subject in his lecture.
Mr.. Watterson says that he is a
Tennessean, who for the last forty
years has been sojourning in Ken
lucky. The visit here is the first in
twenty-five years, and he found him
self qlite lost where he once cavort-
ed with freedom and familiarity.
He marveled at the growth of
Memphis and said that he would not
postpone his next visit so long.

bia Affected, and All Should Make
Effort to Secure tho Workers Nee
essary to Supply the Demand.

Since Becoming installed in the
new quarters in October the Shirt
Garter Company has gradually beer
increasing It's output as the help has
been increased and become more pro
ficient but the company Is still far
behind what it expects early in the
coming year.
They are advertising for girls and
women for their factory, and while
there have been responses to their
wants in this line it has been any
thing but satisfactory. On the first
of January they can find employment
for one hundred more than they al
ready have, and this help they must
have in order to supply the demands
for their goods.
Orders are coming in daily from
every section of the country. Mr.
Breaux showed a representative OF
The Herald an order this morning
from London, England, and another
from California, and still another
from the United States Naval Acad-
envy, all of which came in the early
morning mail.
Contracts have been made in the
various cities of the United States to
furnish wholesalers and jobbers as
well as retailers with from $4,000 to
$4,000 worth of the product during
the year 1912. There will be approx
mately one hundred travelling men on
the road by the 10th of January, and
the company is already carrying a
line of advertising that is an asset
as trade producer. To meet the
demands of these different distribut-
ing agencies there must be sufficient
factory force to manufacture the pro-
duct
Every commercial enterprise in Co.
lumbia will be an indirect beneficial
ry of the success of the Shirt Garter
Company and ought to be interested
in assisting to secure the proper force
for operating the factory.
With one hundred girls and women
working at this enterprise it would
mean at the very lowest estimate
cash distribution of $500 per week.
Not only this, but it would mean more
families in the city, and more fami-
lies would mean the employment of
the other members of the family in
other avocations
Families living contiguous to the
city might be able to make arrange
ments satisfactory both to themselves
and to the factory, and a converse
ton with Mr. Breaux would probably
be of advantage to all parties. Per-
sons knowing girls who might desire
the employment would perhaps con-
fer a favor on them or on the Shirt
Garter Co. by calling attention to the
fact that employment could be secur-
ed there at a fair wage.

Three ordinances which will some

Board of Mayor and Aldermen Thurs

most attention and in which the pub
lie is most interested was that es

while there has been much specula.
ton during the past few weeks as to
the personnel of the initial commits
sion, it is now generally believed
that it will be composed of former
Mayor w. D. Cameron, Raymond c.
Addison and Ulna Foster.
The usual allowances were made
for the standing committees. A mo-
ton to fence in the old negro grave
yard in the northern part of the town
to protect it from being driven over,
prevailed.
The report of the city attorney was
heard on the recent opinion of the
supreme court in the Huntington and
Fleming case, which was to the eff
feet that the newspapers did not get
the opinion right at all, and that the
opinion did not nudity the thirty
day clause in the charter.
The report of the city attorney was
also heard with regard to the sink
ing fund, and was as follows:
In compliance with your request
for written report from me of my
investigation of the account Of the
sinking fund commission of the city
of Columbia, Tenn, l beg to make
the following report: l find that the
commission was created number Of
years ago to take care of the railroad
bonded indebtedness of the city Of
Columbia, which was then $4,000,
and which time $25,0nG of this in
debtedness has been paid and set
tied, and now there remains $4,000
of this bonded Indebtedness out
standing and unpaid, and is due on
January /, 1916, and to meet this in
debtedness the following is the
standing of the sinking fund:
Cash on hand, notes and
warrants -. ..... ......$1S, 566.25
Interest due and unpaid on
Total principal and interest $19,796.26
You will thus see from this report
that the sinking fund has on hand
the sum of $1S,566.26 in notes, and
there is $3.50 due on interest.
The report was signed by the city
attorney, J. Shelby Coffey, and has an
attest of examination by two of the
members of the sinking fund commits
sion.
G. T. Hughes was present and
agreed to withdraw his resignation
as a member of the sinking fund
commission.

Do We Sleep Too Mueh2

Perhaps. on account OF popular opin-
ION and personal habit, we waste much
time in a jelly6sh condition that could
be more probably spent in active
pursuit Of our ambitions. The answer,
of course, depends upon the nature
Of our occupation. II there is much
muscular effort involved. with cor
responding large amount Of waste in
the cells and blood. eight hours or more
are probably necessary. But If our
work is OF sedentary nature and
mainly Of the brain there Is naturally
smaller quantity Of accumulated
waste, and less time is required for its
removal Many are the instances Of
great men. past and present. who have
lived BEAUTIFULLY and worked unceas-
ingly and strenuously on only four or
five hours Of sleep. or half the laborer's
portion Surely we are not to suppose
that those men were or are physically
different from others. but rather that
by inclination or necessity they have
developed a habit OF sleeping intensely

for a longer period, with resulting

Kinns Are Useful.

A king Is n hand embroidered gentle
man trimmed with metals, faced with
whiskers and matched with a metal
roof that would never keep or the
rain. Nomlnally he is the head Of
the nation; actually he is n figure
head, and that is fguratively speaking
only. for he is generally too fat to
claim n figure and seldom has much
Of a head-except on the morning after
a celebration.
Once upon time the king was the
big tuba Of the band Now he is mere
~ an oboe-until there is a revolution,
and then he becomes a real live hobo.
However. n king has his place, al
though he is yearly finding II more
difficult TO stay in II.
Kings are found to be very useful
in poker games, and by society ladies

body they can brag OF having met
when they get back home to their long

the exercises were held.
All the neighboring towns were
represented by those who formerly
