EXCELLENT WERE
MONDAY OPENINGS
ATTENDANCE AND GENERAL
CHARACTER OF WORK FINE
IN THE SCHOOLS.

In accordance with the anticipation
of the faculty the opening of the pub
lie schools Monday morning was par
ticularly satisfactory, in that there
was an increase in the attendance OF
all the grades.
The High School came first with a
healthy addition to the number be-
fore the holidays. Following these
grades came the grammar grades
and the primary, in the order of their
naming. In this connection a most
unusual thing was observed, and that
was that more than eighty-five per
cent of the enrolment was In attend
ance ready for work at the opening.
Usually it requires a week or ten
days to get back into normal figures
of attendance and active work, but
the superintendent stated that 1t
seemed that the pupils themselves
regarded that play day was gone and
work time was at hand, and acted
accordingly on the assembling Mon
day. lf,g.
At Mcdowell there was also most
gratifying report. A particular fea-
ture of the work of the day was a
story from the little folks of the
things that appealed to them most
during the holidays and many of
these were gems both in form and ex-
preston, and was relaxation from
the usual routine of the day. b 1916

GRAVE OF POLK
IS SINKING
THE RESTING PLACE OF FORMER
PRESIDENT IN NASHVILLE
CEMETERY.

NASHVILLE. Jan. 3.-The original
burial place Of President James X.
Polk in the city cemetery has caved
in, either from subterranean pass
age or the recent rains. The body
of the former President was frst
buried in the Bass-Grundy lot. but
was removed to the capitol grounds
in 1850. The cave-in occurred at the
exact spot where the old grave was,
and is said to be three feet in circum-
ference and about six feet deep. In
the front yard of residence directly
across from the City Cemetery a sim
liar sink occurred few days ago,
and people of the neighborhood be-
lieve these occurrences are the re-
suit of an underground opening IN the
section.

MOVING PICTURES
OF STATE PRISON
GOV. HOOPER APPEARS IN VIEWS
NEGRESS MAKES ANUS
ING REMARK.

NASHVILLE, Jan. 2.-Motion pic
lures of prison scenes were taken at
the state penitentiary Monday by
Ralph Earle, the Pathe Freres man;
who made pictures Of the Nashville
fire department last Friday. Mr..
Earle was specially favored Monday
by getting Governor Hooper in the
scenes at the prison, as the Governor
had gone there on business connected
with the management of the prison.
He will appear in a number of the
scenes when they are thrown before
the multitudes in 1.-The near future.
Mr.. Earle made pictures of the con-
victs as they marched to dinner, and
secured several fine views that will
prove highly interesting.
An amusing incident took place
when the operator prepared to make
a pictures Of the women convicts. An
official standing nearby, said to one
of the negro women: Hold on, row
he's going to make moving picture
Of YOU @t
We'll, subj" said the negress, Il
sho' wish he'd make a picture o. me
a-moving to'ards home"
AS Gov. Hooper said last night, in
laughing over the incident: Nobody
but a Southern negro could make a
remark like that in prison"

lance of but two feet separates the
places where Augustus G.. Langham,
president of the Southern Decorating
Co., and Anna May Wright, aged Is
met death Sunday afternoon at Driv-
ers crossing by being struck by
trains on the l.. & N. Railroad. Miss
Wright was killed at $3.50 o'clock
and Mrs. LaIgham at Z In both
cases death was instantaneous.
Northeast Nashville, where the two
accidents occurred, had hardly set
tied down after first death was dis
covered, when the second took place.
In fact, three boys who had gone to
the crossing to look at the spot where
the girl had been hit, were the first
to discover the body of Mr.. Langham
as it lay terribly crushed and lifeless
across the tracks. Frightened the
trio sped at top speed and told the
neighborhood of their discovery, and
within few minutes the same
through that but few hours before
had gathered through morbid curios-
ity to look at the corpse Of Anna
Wright were grouped around the life
less remains OF the second victim OF
the trains in one afternoon.
In neither case was there an eye
witness to the tragedy, and in the
second the train crew itself probably
did not know of the life that had been
crushed out beneath the wheels.

chot former chief of the forestry bu-

advisor of Theodore Roosevelt, who
was dismissed by President Taft in

I'm New York state, for example, Mr..
Murphy is democrat, Barnes re-
publican Both alike stand for all
that is shameless and all that is n
fair in political life. The one clear
distinction between them, is this:
That Murphy rose from an humble
origin to his present bad eminence,
while Barnes, beginning with the ad-
vantages Of birth, breeding and uni
versity training prostiuted them all
to the service OF one of the most cor
rupt political machines Of our day.

this that Herrin has already been
driven from political life while Pen
rose soon will be. Roger Sullivan, Of
Illinois, Boss Cox, of Cincinnati, and
countless others are known as unde-
niable examples Of the existence and
power of special privileges in poll
tics.
What chance has the average man
to make himself felt in politics where
such conditions exist? The boss sys-

Pickpockets at Work.

Mr.. |. c, Hankins. who lives
near Vernon, Ala, was among
the numerous citizens of Lamar
county who came to Columbus to
see the Barnum and Baily circus
Monday, and while here had the
misfortune to be touched for his
pocketbook Mr.. Hankins visited
the circus in the afternoon, and.
not caring to attend the evening
performance, went to the Prin-
cess Theater. He was camping
at Gardner's warehouse, and up
on returning there after his visit
to the moving picture show found
that he had been relieved of his
pocketbook. He returned to the
theater, but dilligent search
failed to reveal the purse, which
it is believed was taken by some
slick pickpocket.
A young lady also lost her
watch Monday night, and it is
believed that one of the crooks
with the circus got the timepiece,
