placed upon them. When he eontin- ued to remain antagonistie to them, they state. they proceeded to the ex- treme measures of the action they took at their September meeting, cut ting the salary and giving him ex- plieit directions on other matters.
 Minimum Salary rISed
 The board claims that the statute fixes a minimum and a maximum sal ary. and that they may determine at any time that the salary of the incum- bent shall be between those figures, and name the amount. The minimum they state is $500. and they have made the salary $500.
 As to Benton's claim that he is re- sponsible only to the people for coun- ty equipment and is not accountable 10 them, but must turn them over to his successor when elected. the board cannot see this at all We are the custodians of the county property" :" say they, and we are going to see that it is cared for and properly used. We make the appropriation for road funds, and we are going to see that it is expended for the purpose for which it is appropriated and that fHll value is received by the coun.< for the expenditures that are made" Benton Teams Must Obey
 One member of the board stated that if in the next few days the teams Benton was ordered to turn in had not been so turned in that the sheriff would be sent to take them. He added that he expected Benton's at torney, whose name was not dis closed in the letter, would be before the board with Benton at the next meeting and that they would see that this was done.
 And so open warfare has been dis l closed. The stretching point has been passed and the breaking point reached, and further developments may be expected to follow one an other rapidly Hints at these devel | opments are heard, but they have not taken definite enough form fol | announcement. The board insist: that the stand it has taken is def | mite and that it vii lahide by it As to the salary question, Benton may take that into the courts if h, | desires. but the supervisors intend | 10 control the road work of Ccchis, ! county and have 1t done as they be l lieve it should be done. It is suggest ! ed to appoint a special superintend ' Of roads and thus shear the presen l holder of the office of practically al l authority and all emnluments beyon inc SGnn Ter anUtg1u af which th
 board has decided his salary shall b
 fixed.
 Who will win out remains to be dc termined, but locally, sentiment is al
 with the board in it's action.

REVIEWS HISTORY
OF UNIVERSITY
CHANCELLOR klRklAND'S DEPO.
SlTION IN VANDERBILT
SUIT.

NASHVILLE, Dec. 1S.-The sui
involving the question of whether the
board of trust or the church has the
right to elect the trustees of Wander
bilt University is still pending in tht
chancery court, and the defendants
that is the board of trust, are con
tinuing the reading of their proof
The examination in chief of Chancel
lor ]. H. Kirkland, which was begun
several days ago, was concluded yes
terday, but it is believed that his
cross-examination and other lroo1
will not be concluded for savera
days.
Chancellor Kirkland, in a volunin
Gus deposition, undertakes to review
the history of the university; and
upon the subject of the etelion CT
trustees, he introduced numerous re
cords in support of his contention
that the board of trust has always
asserted and exercised the right to
elect its successors. He declared
that at the first meeting of the board
of trust in 1872, when the charter was
accepted, the board formally adopted
a resolution avering that the charter
leaves the perpetuity of the board in
its own power; and he asserted that
two years thereafter, upon the rec
ommendation of Bishop McTiere and
on motion of Chancellor Garland, the
board again. declared that 1.-The cfar.
ter Of Vanderbilt University confers
upon the boar of trust the exclusive
right and power to fill vacancies that
may occur in it's own body" an, that
this power cannot be delegated to any
body Of persons whatsoever"
The witness contendeG that the
board, of it's own motion and volun-
tarily, aid established a relation with
the annual conferences by agreeing
20 give them the power to confirm the
members e!ecteG by the board, and
that this relation and the resolutions
quoted above were accepted and ap-
proved by the conferences; and that
the relation thus established was a
bylaw relation, and was always un-
der the control of the board, and had
been readjusted from time to time by
the board whenever it had thought
proper to do so.

CAR OVERTURNED
UPON OCCUPANTS
ACCIDENT NEAR LEB-
ANON

LEBANON, TENT, Dec. 16.-What
came near being a fatal auto accident
occurred this morning about $50
o'clock to large touring car driven
by ]. R. Watson, of near Murfrees-
boro and occupied by his wife, little
daughter and father on their way to
see Mr.. Watsons brother at Hunters
Point west of Lebanon. While COM
Ii ing up a hill about three miles from
Lebanon at high speed and while try
ing to miss a water break across the
middle of the pike, Mr.. Watson turn
ed his machine slightly to the side Of
tht road and the car skidded on bed
of sand and gravel, ripping the front
tire completely off, which caused the
car to turn turtle, imprisoning its oc-
cupants under the heavy tonneau.
Fortunately the top of the car was
|up and received part of the terrific
force of hte impact or else all in the
party would have been killed instant
ly, it is thought. Mr.. Watson and his
father were only badly shaken up and
stunned. Mr.. Watson first, and then
his aged father worked themselves
from under the wreckage and with
their combined strength, spurred on
by the piteous appeals Of the wife and
little girl, who were imprisoned I'M
der the heavy tonneau, lifted the car
off them. They we're drawn from un-
der it, stunned and bleeding from nu-
merous Commissions on their heads and
upper yart of their bodies.

MOTOR TRUCKS
DISPLACING HORSES
FREIGHT TRUCKS AND DEllV
cry WAGONS ELECTRICITY
DRIVEN IN CITIES.

Statistics to the contrary, power
driven trucks are actually displacing
thousands of horses annually. True
/ it is that horses are still scarce and
high priced for all the hundreds OF
thousands of automobiles and power
wagons now in use, but this owing
to the fact that horses are not being
raised as extensively as formerly and
not because of any increased demand
for horse flesh to haul wagons and
carriages.
In the city of New York there to-
day more than five thousand motor
trucks and Chicago has more than
two thousand. There is not city of
any size in the country where there
are not huge power driven trucks run
ming up and down hauling loads Of
coal, ice, wood, newspapers, ice
cream, pianos, crushed stone, freight
beer barrels and for delivering furni-
ture, groceries and merchandise of all
kinds.
1t costs money to keep truck hors-
es in the city where the feed is very
high and the work is unusually heavy.
such horses rarely last but a few
years and che wages paid to stable
men and drivers are far in advance
of what they were few years ago
Even il the power driven trucks could
not make better time and carry great
er loads it is quite possible that they
would show profit over the horse
hauled vehicle.
The reason for the displacement OF
the team drawn wagon by the motor
truck Is that it decreases the cost Of
delivery and the time required. One
high grade motor truck will do the
work of three or four team-hauled
wagons of the same size. The mo-
tor truck is faster and surer than the
team wagon. 1t is independent of
weather extremes, interchangeable,
demands no set hours for rest or feed,
is free from bad temper, occupies less
space on the streets, at the dock or
terminal and in the stable. It does
cleaner work These facts have been
demonstrated by actual comparative
accounts kept for the team wagon and
motor trucks doing the same work.

PRINCE OF PILSEN
BEING REVIVED
MORE ELABORATE THAN WAS
THE ORIGINAL PRODUCTION
BY DANDY.

THE Prince of Pilsen," the Pixley
and Luders musical comedy, which,
according to a great many critics, is
the most noteworthy creation of this
kind ever credited to American au.
thos, has been evived by Heny W.
Savage. At Allentown, Pa, on cleo.
ton night, it began its eighth tour
of the country. Fitted with an en-.
tiely new dress in the way of seen
cry and costumes, which are, if any
thing, more elaborate than we're
those same elements of the original
and interpreted by a
skilfully selected cast led by Jess
Dandy, the originator of the role of
Hans Wagner, the comical Cincin-
natl brewer, "The Prince Of Pilsen''
is as much of favorite with play
goers to-day as ever it was. Box
Office returns prove it.

REQUIREMENTS FOR
A GOOD TURKEY
SHOULD BE FIRM AND NOT
OVER FAT FOR GOOD
COOKING.

What is a good turkey? AS you
look over the display in the market
your eye may be caught by large
bird or a small one which you think
will just about meet your require
ments as to size, says writer in the
Mothers Magazine. Before you ask
the butcher for close examination
note well that the head and legs
have not been removed. If the eyes
are blanched, you may be sure the
turkey has been in cold storage too
long to be satisfactory. The legs
should be smooth, plump and black,
and on the legs of the young cock
will be short, loose spurs. If you
wish a large turkey it is always bet.
ter to buy a cock, as the hen turkey
of the same age and weight is much
tougher. For anything under ten
pounds, either the cock or the hen
may be selected.
Examine the bird closely to judge
it's age. The curly tuft of hair on
the neck is called the crock, and it
should be short, soft and silky on a
young turkey. When the hair is
coarse and long you may be sure you
are examining a seasoned old-timer.
The skin should be soft and flexible
and without the torn places which
indicate carelessness in plucking the
feathers. The presence Of pin feath-
ers indicates that the turkey is
young. The most essential thing to
examine is the breas bone. Run
your hand along until you feel the
thin end near the stomach. Press
on it. II it feels soft and gristly
then you have found a young bird.
AS you feel the turkey, note the
quality of the flesh. 1t should be
firm rather than soft. If it is soft
the chances are that the bird is very
fat. Overwhelmed turkeys do not
cook well and the fat on the breast
makes the lean meat almost indiges-
tible. Besides large amount o! fat
indicates CORRESPONDENCE less
amount Of lean meat. Accordingly
an overwhelmed turkey is never
economical Plump flesh is the sure
indication of a "meaty" bird. Rough
legs, a hard breastbone, thick. fat
skin, long crock and long, bony
spurs on the cock all indicate an old
turkey. Old turkeys are just as good
as young birds for boiling, as this
method OF cooking renders the meat
tender.
To roast a turkey, smear the body
we'll with butter and cover the breast
with buttered paper to keep it from
scorching and place on the rack of an
ordinary drip pan. Sprinkle with
salt, pepper and -four. Put in a very
hot oven and roast until the flour
turns brown. Reduce the heat, haste
every fifteen minutes with the fat in
the pan and after each Blasting
sprinkle with -four. In basting turn
the turkey so that 1t will brown
nicely. Continue roasting until the
legs may be pulled from the body.
From one hour and a half to four
hours will be required for the roast
ing according to the size of the tur-
key. A ten-pounder will require about
three hours.

WIGWAM HAS PASSED AWAY
Indians In Canada Now Make Use OF
Canvas Tents and Iron
Stoves.

A novelist would find a veritable
mine of data for stories of the severe
life In the woods among any of the
northern Indian tribes. During my
stay among the Montagnais at Lake
st. John two families descended from
their winter hunting grounds to the
post, being forced on the way to boil
their moccasins and pelfries for soup
to avoid starvation. Yet these same
people were strong enough to travel
and attend to the necessities of their
camp. Within five days they return
ed again to the forest.
The canvas tents, which have en-.
tirely replaced the native birch bark
wigwams, came into general use
about twenty-five years ago. The first
Indians to introduce them set up their
tents and made camp in the space OF
an hour without having to cut the
numerous wigwam poles or dig away
the snow underneath, while the old
bark lodge required the snow to be
cleared to the ground on account of
the fire in the center, the whole task
consuming about two and one-halt
hours. The box iron stoves heat the
tents very well and consume less
wood than the open flres.-Southerp
Workman,
