Mr.. Henderson to allow Miss Piclmey

his ulster, revealing a small leather

Old Stone Found.

In cleaning out the basement of
the old Presbyterian Church on
MalG street that is being remod-
eled for the Advocate Publishing
Co., workmen found an old stone
slab about two and one-half by
five feet, on which is the following
wording:
First Presbyterian Church,
built 1929; organized 1896"
Messrs. Chenault & Orear, who
own the building, gladly gave the
interesting relic to the members
of the church, who prize it very
highly. 1t is not known how
long the stone has been in the
basement, as several of the oldest
members of the church knew
nothing about it.

PETITION
FILED
BY Judge I'd. c. 0'Redr
On Behalf of Tenn
perdnCe People.
Matter to Be Passed On County
Court Day In this Month.

Upon behalf of j. P. Highland
and 1042 other citizens of Mont
gomery county, Judge Ed. G..
O'Rear, attorney, filed before
County Judge Mccormick Thurs
day petition asking that an cleo
ton be called for the purpose of
submitting to the voters of the
county as a unit the question of
whether or not spirituous, vinous
or malt liquors shall be sold therein.
Under the law the matter can
not be heard until court day.
The number of signers in each
precinct is as follows:
Aaron's Run, so; Beans, 81; Ca
MARCO, 80; Grassy Lick, Is; Harris,
IS, Towards Mill, 81; jefferson
vile, Is; Levee. 50; Sideview, AZ;
Spencer, 70; Smithville, 60; First
Ward, IS; Second Ward, 81; Third
Ward, 70; Fourth Ward, As; total
1913.
This is more than 25 per cent. of
the legal voters in each precinct
and is sufficient to authorize the
calling of such election, unless
enough signers withdraw their
names before the order calling the
election is entered, to make one or
more of the precincts fall below
the requisite number.

The first national convention of
the new progressive party met at
the Coliseum in Chicago Monday
at noon, where a little over a month
ago President VIM. H. Taft was
re-nominated for the Presidency
on the Republican ticket over the
protest of those now Leading the
new party movement. Col. Roos-
evelt assumed complete charge of
all affairs.
Some little friction was caused
by the ousting of the negro dele
gates from Florida, who hold in
dignation meeting. The leaders
are endeavoring to compromise In
order to satisfy the negroes.

MIA, will be the Colonel's running

WORK
STARTED
In Laying of Gas Pipes
to West Virginia
Fields.
About 500 Men at WOrk--TO Be
Completed About December I.

Active work was begun last
week in the laying of gas pipes
from the Menefee wells to connect
with the West Virginia wells. The
gas company has about 500 men at
work, $50 working at each end of
the line, and with so teams the
work is progressing rapidly. The
company is doing everything in
its power to give this city. Win
chester and Lexington an adequate
supply of gas for the coming win
ter. The work is to be completed
by December LIST.
Mr.. T. j. Tonkin and son, of
this city, will be at the fields most
of the time while the work is in
progress. Mr.. T. j. Tonkin, Jr. =,
will be paymaster at this end of
the line and the Office here will be
looked after by Mr.. E. j. Egan,
of Winchester. The company is
paying good wages, $500 per day
and lodging being the price paid.
Several hundred more men are
needed in the work and it would
not be a bad idea for some of the
loafers around here to get busy.
The company is doing the work
under its own supervision, which
it is thought, when completed, will
cest in the neighborhood of $780,
600.

Contract Let for PAVING
OF Bank and Locust

Believing that the bid of the

Lexington, was the lowest and
best bid received for the paving
of Bank and Locust streets, the
contract for same was awarded to
the Lexington company at a meet
ing of the City Council, held last
Wednesday night. Mr.. 6. H.
Strother, of this city, was the only
other bidder. Work will be COM
menced about the middle of Au-

work last year and gave such
splendid satisfaction, will again
have charge of the construction.

TURNER
WINNER
Hon. c. c. Turner Easy
Victor Over Hon. J.
Smith Hays.
All Counties Not In, But Major
lily Over One Thousand.

Hon. G. G. Turner, of this city,
from the returns so far received,
has defeated Hon. J. Smith Hays,
of Winchester, for the Democratic
nomination for Judge of the Court
of Appeals in this district. While
it has been impossible to get the
complete returns, Turner's ma
jority may easily be placed at one
thousand. He made a most re-
markable race in this his home
county, carrying same by 7S4
votes.
The primary was marked by the
best of good feeling between the
two candidates and there will be
no sore spots, all of Hays admir-
ers being good Democrats, will
get together and unite with Tur-
ner's friends and help send the
Montgomery county man to the
bench in November. With the
Democrats united as never before
we are confident that Mr.. Turner
has an excellent chance to win.

Obtains Patent.

Mr.. Owen Laughlin, of this city,
has just received the patent papers
on filter that promises to be one
of the best on the market and he
will soon have them ready for sale.
1t is simple in construction and
contains many features that will
appeal to the people who use filters.
Mr.. Laughlin will shortly adver-
tise the filter thoroughly, and
whether you are in the market for
one now or not, you are urged to
examine it carefully.
