Lieened to Practice Law:


A number Of young men we're exam
ined last week before the Jsstices Of the
State Supreme Courtin Nashville Tor the
purpose ofadmission to the bar Among
them we're Geo A. Gibbs. Jr., and W.
H swiegart, Jr.. this city, who passed
with high averages. both OF them.
Mr.. sgiggart has just completed a law
course at Lebanon. He is son Of
Judge W. II. swiggart. Of this city, and
will probably enter the practice Of law
with his father He is also a graduate
OF Vanderbilt. Mr.. Gibbs is a young
man Of intellectual attachments and ma
tive talent He did not attend law school,
but studied under his father at home.
Most Of the legal training in by-gone
years came this way, but such cases are
now somewhat rare. For this reason
the Justices were not as freely inclined
to Mr.. Gibbs application probably as
they were to those Of the other candi-
dates. He was admitted, however, and
proved to be one Of the best informed
students of the class. We congratulate
the young men, and trust that opportu-
mites in Union City will be sufficient to
keep them with us.

A few days before his death DIR. Hollo.

after his return was taken suddenly i'll

Board Of Mayor and Aldermen.

The board met in regular session last
Tuesday night. Quite number oil
small items were looked after and then
a rather stormy session ensued,
A motion was first introduced to re-
establish the old lines OF the corporation
as shown on page 81 Of the Code of 1904.
This was carried, but from it sprang the
discussion Of the lines and several other
motions followed and were lost. One
was made to cease discussion, but out OF
order. The trouble is that no agreement
between the members can be reached as
to the proper boundary lines. A motion
was made to run line from Main street
east and north and west and back again
to simply include the colored section, or
the colored school, but this was not
satisfactory and was voted down. The
truth of the whole business is that unless
the citizens who are personally interest
ed in the extension Of the lines get to-
gether and enter their petitions in proper
form nothing at all will be done. II
there are number Of citizens living
over the border who want to take advan-
tage Of the city schools they will have to
get busy, or else they will be compelled
to look for a district school.

County Seat of Lake.

Tiptonville, Tenn, Feb, IA bill
has been introduced in the Legislature to
change the line between the counties of
Lake, Obion and Dyer so as to add the
Ninth district of Obion and the Sixteenth
district OF Dyer to Lake. The people
of Ridgely are leaving no stone unturned
that will aid in the passing of the BILL
II the bill passes there will be an effort
to move the county seat Of Lake county
from Tiptonville to Ridgely. 1t is
thought that the new territory that
would be annexed would be in favor Of
moving the county seat.
Senator F. ]. Caldwell, who lives at
Tiptonville, was at home last Saturday
night and attended meeting of the
business mems club. Strong opposition
to the bill was manifested. A petition
is being circulated to-day and will be for
warded to Nashville, signed by several
hundred real estate owners, strongly OPP
posing the move.
1t is claimed, inasmuch as the court
house and jail are practically new, that
the building of new ones would be an
expense to the county.
There is great deal Of feeling over the
matter and the bill will be vigorously
fought.

RIVER WATER IS AT
 HIGH TEMPERATURE

New Orleans, July T.-Although New Orleans eluded the recent heat wave. enjoying instead shower-cooled breezes from the gulf, the almost startling dis covery has been made that the tenpera- ture of the water in the Mississippi river at this city has for the past two weeks averaged S1 degrees, 6.2 degrees warmer than the maximum temperature record here yesterday by the weathr bureau. The matter attracted the attention of the Photographic office. and a series of tests were made. The highest temperature in the river was S4 degrees recorded July 9 These observations were taken from the jetties to the city 107 miles. Lieut.. John c. Soley of the Photographic office
 in explaining this condition, says that water from the Gulf stream of Tampico, Mex, is exceptionally warm, and has re- gently been running closer to shore. This warm stream reaching the passes, runs over the cold, sluggish river water with little resistance. It has rarely been known to come up as far as this city. Tie Gulf stream on June IS, between Dry Tor tugas and Galveston, showed a tempera- ture of SS degrees.

 RAISED 5PER CENT Blanket Increase Effects 5000 Men Throughout
 Entire System

Louisville, Ky, July 1.-The Evening Post says this afternoon:
 A blanket raise of per cent in the salaries of the employees in the mechani- cal departments of the various shops of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad system has been declared and the 5000 men affected will receive their augmented salaries when the pay train rolls around on August 15.
 Out of the thousands who will partici- pate in the advance in wages there are 25OO men at the local shops, who will be affected by the increase. The notices have not yet been sent out to the men, but the rumor that there would be an in- crease in wages soon has caused some excitement at the Louisville and Nash vile shops in this city.
 The advance will be straight per cent raise. A shop man who is making $4 day will have 20 cents a day more for his labor. Those who are now get ting s a day will receive 15 cents more and those who make s2 a day will have an advance of 10 cents day.

 KNIGHTHOOD BADGE

Chicago, July 7.-Nicolay V: Grevstadt, the Chicago editor recently appointed United States minister to Uruguay and Paraguay, has returned decoration be- slowed upon him several years ago by King Haakon of Norway. The deoora- tion is the Norwegian knighthood of Stol- af, granted to Mr. Grevstadt in 1ec- ognition of. his, services as q newspaper man.
 q feel that it is no more than right that l return the decoration now that I am about to enter the American dipo- matic service" said Mir. Grevstadr. "The constitution prevents the acceptance by federal employees of decorations from for Ieign governments.
 "While I received the ord.r several years ago, I feel that I ought to ask the consent of Congress to retain 1t and that IT do not wish to do.'
