BORUM SITS STEADY
IN THE BOAT
Davidson Comfy sheriff Going
After Law ViOlaIors In Busi-
nessiike way.

Nashville, Tenn, March 70
For ten days the law abiding cih-
zens of Nashville have been enjoy
ing the spectacle Of the closing Of
the saloons or the conversion of
the bartenders INTO stealthy lis
pensers of an occasional drink
while they cast furtiye glances
to see that the eyes of deputy
sheriff is not on their movements.
Sheriff Sam Borum is the man
who has brought the lawless sa-
loonists to their knees, and he just
won't "quit kicking their dog
around"
So surprised were the citizens
of Nashville by the sudden placing
of the saloonists in the outlaw
class, that the question of II mo-
tive did not become topic Of gen
eral discussion until the next day
after the lightning change had
been wrought by the presto-change
sheriff.
For "A time it was difficult to get
Sheriff Borum to explain what it
was all about, and when he said
that he was merely enforcing the
law the little man with the label
common people came near fall
ing off the bench. After Judge
Lansden had emphasized the fact
that the holding of a federal license
was prima facie evidence Of guilt,
Sheriff Borum said that he felt like
he could make cases. In support
of his change of style he cited the
fact that he had, when the state
wide law first went into effect, at
tempted to enforce it, arresting
more than II hundred saloonists
and having the chagrin of seeing
them all turned loose by the grand
iury's failure to indlct.
Tn the present crusade, Sheriff
Borum states that he has already
presented over 40 cases to the
grand jury, with more to come.
No bones are made by the sheriff
of the fact that he is personally in
favor of nigh license and segrega-
ton for the large cities, but as an
officer sworn to enforce the law,
backed mp by the supreme court,
he says he proposes to have the
law observed.

Nashville, Tenn, March IL
Following the action Of the two

Gen. " alter S Faulkner of Leba-

an interview in which he took a
strong position for mass conyen-
ton for the purpose of securing
party harmony.

know the people desire harmony
and vet these committeeman, pre-
tending to be the agents of the
democratic party, have failed to
do what | know to be the desire
of the democratic voters of the
state. As have heretofore said,
if the leaders will not, the demo-
cratic voters must save the state
from republican rule. To accom-
plish this, in my opinion, execu-
tive sessions of both committees
must be done away with and 8
great meeting of all democrat;
must be held at Nashville, made
up of delegates from each civil
district, coming fresh from the
people, to instruct these commit
tees in accordance with their

Costly Picture in Lumber Room.

NoStIy Picture IN LUMBER HOon.
A picture estimated to be worth
S35,000 which for so many years was
hidden away in lumber room at St
Mary's hall, Coventry, has just been
restored and put In a place of honor
in ST. Mary's hall.
Owing to damp and an accumulation
of dust and dirt, the picture had be-
come so defaced that the corporation
of Coventry had decided to sell it if
they could get 1915 for it. But Messrs
Izod & Co, a London firm of picture
restorers were at work upon the pic
lures in st. Mary's hall, and one of
their experts recognized it as a mas
terpiece.
It was found to be one of the finest
examples extant of the work of Jacob
Jordaens. pupil and fellow-worker
of Rubens. Jordaens was born In Ant
werp, and the picture was probably
painted about 1910. 1t represents Bac-
chus springing from his car upon see
ing Ariadne. The canvas is about
thirty feet by ten feet high. Present
ed to Coventry by Edward Ellice, M.
P, in 1856, little value was attached
to it, and it was subsequently con-
signed to the lumber room.

IMPORTANT CAPTURE FOR ITALY.

The news that the Italians have cap
tured Rhodes will be interesting to
others than those who watch the Eu-
ropean chessboard. Rhodes is one of
the Oldest islands mentioned in history.
1t Is only about ten miles south of
the Asiatic mainland, about hundred
miles northeast of Crete, and perhaps
ESQ miles southeast of Athens. 1t oc-
cupies such q position in regard to
Turkey in Asia that its possession by
the Italians will put the coastwise COM
munications OF the Turks at their mer-
cy. Commercially speaking, it will be
worth more to them, at present, than
Tripoli. Rhodes figured extensively in
history from the time of Cyrus to it's
absorption by the Roman empire. It's
people were famous sailors and sea
fighters, and once they stood off the
entire power of Persia. Their laws on
maritime affairs were reckoned the
best of their period, and many of them
were Incorporated into the Roman
statutes The island was also an i'm
portant center of manufactures. htera-
ture and art. 1t was captured from
the Romans by the Saracens in $50 A
d. 1t was retaken by the Christians
some centuries later and for awhile
formed a dependence of the Greek en-
pire During the Crusades, 1T was CIV
en- by the Byzantine emperor Emanuel
to the Knights of ST. Johns, who held
II, against the vastly superior numbers
of the Turks until 1923, when they
gave up the struggle against what was
then the greatest power in the worio.
Now. again. after nearly four centuries
1t comes under the sway OF an Euro
pean nation. Rhodes has an area OF
424 square miles and population OF
about $4,000. most of whom are GREEKS
and are not likely to grumble over the
change of flags. 1t has two good har-
bors. fine climate and fertile soil.
Italy will probably hang on to ii, and
its loss will do the Turks more real
harm than that of the million square
miles of the Tripolitan hinterland.

Odd Ways Of Catching Fish.

The Icelanders are said at one time
to have taught bears to jump into the
sea and catch seals. In China birds
do equally well, for at signal they
dive into the lakes and bring up large
fish grasped in their bills. In Greece
the fishermen use branches of pine
stepped in pitch and lighted; the in
habitants of Amorgos used cypress
leaved cedar, which served when
lighted as flambeau, and the Chinese
fish in the night with white painted
boards placed in a manner to reflect
the rays of the moon doubly upon the
water These attract the fish to the
boat. when the men cast large net
and seldom fail to draw out consider
able quantities. Anchovies are fisheo
for in a similar manner.
