Special to The Herald.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Feb. 15.-The
Nashville charter bill, with an amend
ment providing for a recall Of officers,
was passed this morning in the House
of Representatives by vote of sc to
81, with two of the members present
not voting. The amendment provides
for the removal of any or all officers,
except members Of the city council,
by petition signed by one-fourth of
the registered voters Of the city.
The bill came up on a motion to re-
consider. There was very little dis
cussion, and the lively tight that had
been anticipated over its passage fail
ed to materialize. This bill was up
in the House yesterday, but on motion
of Representative Puryear, of Sumner
county, who is one of the most ardent
champions of the measure, it was
passed over until this morning. At
the first effort to pass the bill in the
House 1t failed for lack of a constitu.
tional majority, but on the roll call
today it showed that there were six
more than enough votes to pass the
bill.

TRAINING TABLE FOR
c. M. A. QUINTETTE
COACH M'GEHEE BACK FROM
SOUTHERN TRIP AND ONTO
THE JOB.

Coach McGehee cut his Southern
basket ball trip short and is back on
the job as coach at C. M. A. The
coach started the training table for
the basket bali players Tuesday and
each afternoon a strenuous practice
is gone through. The players will be
kept up to the very highest mark of
training and not one minute will they
be allowed to fall back in the work.
McGehee and the players fully real
ize that they have hard fight before
them commencing Friday night when
they go against the hefty B. G. A.
quintet, followed by the Hawkins lads
Saturday afternoon here and then on
to Winchester for a game Monday
night with the Winchester school
team. But, In spite of the fact that
these games will all be hard, there is
not doubt In the mind Of the players
or coach but that victory will crown
each effort Here is hoping that the
boys expectations may be realized
and that they will settle the scores
with both Hawkins and B. @. A.

Rev. T. A. Wharton, Former Popular
Pastor Here, Also Strongly Com.
nends Efforts Of Kings Daughters
to Take Care of the Sick.

Rev. e. B. Andrews, who has direct
charge Of the campaign inaugurated
by the Kings Daughters to raise funds
for a hospital for Maury county, has
issued an appeal to the people of Co
lumbia In which he sets forth the
needs Of this institution. In addition
DR.. T. A. Wharton, the former pas
tor Of the First Presbyterian church
here, writes letter cordially endors-
ing the enterprise. The letters of DR..
Andrews and DR.. Wharton follow:
To the Editor of The Herald:
Will you allow me space to say a
word in behalf of the movement
which has been inaugurated by the
Kings Daughters of Maury county to
build a hospital here. Surely every
patriotic and loyal citizen of this
county will lend his interest, sympa-
thy and aid to the undertaking. There
is no institution so much needed just
now as hospital. To this every cit
izen will agree. The Kings Daugh-
ters have undertaken the task Of
building such an institution. But II
they are to succeed, the interest and
cooperation of every citizen must be
enlisted. Other towns, smaller in pop
ulation and wealth have modern hos
pitfalls, why should not our county
have one? It is proposed to erect a
hospital that will be an ornament and
credit to Maury county, SO renowned
for her wealth and culture. We
must care for the three fold life Of
our citizenship. We have schools and
colleges to develop and train the
mind We have churches to nurture
and develop the spirit. Shall we not
have hospital where we can protect
and heal the body?
Friday night the Kings Daughters
invite every loyal man to come to an
oyster supper and smoker at the Beth-
ell House at eight o'clock. No money
will be asked for. You are an invited
guest. The President of the Board Of
Trade will preside, and there will be
short speeches by several prominent
men. No one will be embarrassed In
any way.
Come and hear the plans, and show
your loyalty to Maury county.
e. B. ANDREWS.

football game here last fall. ,Haw-

Columbia defeated the Winchester
team here and it is firmly believed by
the supporters of the locals that they
can repeat the dose, even on the home
grounds of the opposing team.
Friday night large number of root

to witness the game at that place, re-
turning on No. that night. The
most Of the rooters will go up on the

are receiving many congratulations
over the successful game which the
soldiers put up Saturday night against

Miss Dorothy Whitney and othe,
Prominent Society Women Of New
York Areinterested In the Work
Headed BY Mrs. Vanderbilt.

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Mrs. VIII
liam K Vanderbilt, Jr, Miss Dorothy
Whitney and other well-konwn SOC
iety women ahve organized q private
association for the care and protec
tion of friendless and homeless Pro
testant girls, to keep them out Of
the public institutions and look after
their general welfare until they are
able to care for themselves.
The work will be different from
that Of the organized institutions and
will be directed more IN line with
individual work and the care of the
individual girl
One of the most important features
Of the work is designed to preserve
the family ties and wherever possible,
the girls will be kept under home
influences. This will be done by Civ.
ing aid SO that humble homes may be
maintained and the guardianship Of
their parents, instead of the care of
paid employees in public institutions.
In addition to finding proper homes
for orphans and friendless girls,by
adoption under the best conditions
for their future welfare, efforts will
be made to encourage the mainten-
ance of the home ties between par.
ents and their daughters. AS in the
case of widow, who may be too
poor to care for the children and edu-
cate them she will be aided to keep
the family together. .-=..
1t is believed this can be done at
about the cost in public institution,
while the results will be more bene-
fetal in every way to the child.
While this effort is intended chieuy
for Protestant girls, it will not be
! limited to such 1t is expected that

conditions as they affect girls. She
has kept her plans secret, but IL is

night, the Lord is with them
The other three Frank Vickory, Frank

BY c. w. SWAN.

All cars will lead to Georgetown Field
this afternoon, for the Hilltoppers will
meet the Carlisle Indians in what prom
ises to be the best football game on the
Hilltop for many moons. The game will
start promptly at 3 o'clock.
Coach Nielsen put the team through a
stiff signal drill yesterday, but no scrim-
mage was attempted. The Hilltoppers
are in first-class condition, and a hot
battle is assured on the Georgetown grid
iron this afternoon.
Glen Warner and his tribe of redskins
reached the Ebhitt House last night, and
when asked for prediction as to the
outcome Of the fray said: 4 have not
witnessed the Georgetown team in action.
and so cannot say just how good they
are, but 1 have heard a lot about the
IfilltOppers. and from those reports I ex-
pcct a hard battle. My team is in the
best of shape and I look for another
victory for Carlisle
The Indians look TO be the picture of
perfect health, and the Blue and Gray
eleven will have to play some hard foot
hall to land the big end Of the score
Seats for the game can still be had at
the different sporting goods stores, and
by getting the pasteboards at these
places will save the rush at the Hilltop
gate. for a breaking crowd is ex-
pected at the contest.
This game Will serve to get a good
line on the Georgetown eleven. as it
viii be the first big game of the season,
