MAURY COUNTY

If YOU would call on the officers or
The Maury County Trust Company,
Officers and Directors same as those
Of the Maury National Bank, anil To-
Gated in the same building, they
you'd with pleasure explain the pur-
poses of the Maury County Trust
Company. Why this company ac-
cepts nothing but purely Trust busi-
ness, and is the only Trust Company,
so far as is known, in the State con-
ducting its business and its Trusts
absolutely fr9e Of any other liability,
and each Tfust with its funds and
securities held Of ledger-record sep
arate and apart from each other In
other words, il you should leave
certain sum OF money in Trust with
the Maury County Trust Co for one
OF your children, or all of them, or
have this Company as your executor
Or guardian for your children, the
funds would be received and credited
and each and every security, or loan
listed and held as the securities or
loans of such parties, and could
at all times be identified as such.
1t might be worth THOUSANDS
OF DOLLARS to your estate II you
would take the time to discuss with
the officers of this Company the pur-
poses Of this institution and how they
can render the services for you at
such worth to your estate.
If for any reason you feel your
son or brother might act as executor
of your Will or Administrator OF
your Estate, it remains that the
Maury County Trust Co., is more
familiar and knows better how to
handle such matters and should at
least be named in your Will as Co
Executor witt your son or other re-
lative and then the permanent

Habeas corpus proceedings we're
had this morning before Judge I. T..
Mcknight, growing out of the case Of
the city against Martin Qrish) Tay-
Tor, charged With selling whiskey. In
this case the officers went be.ond
The city limits to secure the whiskey
as the evidence against the defndant,
out usd search warrant. The whis,
key being found it was seized and
brought to thc city hall, and Taylor
was arrested under an ordinance that
permits, jurisdiction one mile beyond
Tie city limits for an offense against
the statutes.
The proceedings were brought I'm.
der the contention that the ordinance
under which the arrest was made did
.ot define any onense against the
statu es, and was therefore void.
Bertram Dedman, the city attorney,
had associated with him j. l.. Voor-
HES, While Taylor was represented
by w ]. fowler and PEBBLES & For
gey.
The case was heard in the county

lions
The defendant through his altor-
neys contenGed no proof OF
IA violation of the law was
submitted to the court, and
that further, the federal license held
by Taylor was not put in as proof
Judge Mcknight rendered his decis-
ION at l O'Clock, and in review of the
facts as submitted to him he held that
the city court had only shown that
two barrels of whiskey had reen
found on his premises and that no
further offense was shown in the
proof. He therefore held that the
city had no jurisdiction in the mat
ter and dismissed the suit and order

Miss Graham Entertains.

The MADEIRA (Cal.) News contains
the following notice OF Miss T. IL,
Grahum's entertainment in a talk on
travel at the Womans Club house,
she is niece OF Hon, H. P, Figuers,
and has many friends in Columbia:
It .s a fine thing to be able to trav-
ei. It is finer to travel with an-ap-
preciatiye eye and to bring kcme
pleasant impressions Of the beautiful
things seen in distant lands And it
IS pelbaps yet finer to be able 70 i'm
part to Others something of the pleas
IRE and profit so realized. This lat
ser was accomplished in no small de-
gree in the illustrated travel talk CIV
en- by Miss T. H. Graham at the Wo-
mans Club house last Friday even
ing.
The event was one of series of
entertainments arranged by the Wo-
mans Club to which the public was
invited. The appreciative audience
which responded to the invitation
taxed the capacity of the main audito-
rum.
Miss Graham explained that the
talk was the result of request made
BY Mrs. Lawless, president of the
club, while looking over some of the
PICTURES she had taken when abroad.
When Mrs. Lawless expressed de-
sire that the public might be given
an opportunity to see them she
agreed to make it possible and the
evenings entertainment was the re-
srlt.
The pictures were practically all
taken by Miss Graham, who is an &C,
complished amateur photographer,
getting artistic results out of the or
binary Most of the stereopiicon
slides were beautifully colored, max
ing the scenes very realistic. Inter
esting features of life and scenery
were shown from Japan, China, Cey
ION, Egypt alG Italy, closing with
couple of American views as a patri-
Jtic reminder that not all the worlds
finest scenery is found in other lands
than our own.
Miss Graham disclaimed any pre-
tensions at giving lecture, simply
giving interesting comments on the
various pictures as they were shown.
The audience was attentive and keen
II appreciatiye, giving particular evi-,
dence of enjoyment of those pictures
showing something of the life of
strange people.

the republicans, founded on
their lack Of organization on
their side, and superior organ
ization on the part Of the dem

began to be a realization. The
vote IN this city, normally re-

down to a paltry E. Closely
following this news came the
report from good old Lakin,

pendence with 70, and so on
down the line, until the ma

years have been known to go
