Ed Huddle Drowned.


One of our prominent citizens
met a watery grave Tuesday in
the flood. Ed Huddle, proprie-
tor Of the sawmill in Minatown,
went out across the prairie in a
canvas boat to shoot ducks and
when he did not return late Tues
day evening his friends and fam
lily became uneasy and a search
with lanterns was made that
night until after midnight but no
trace of him could be found. The
search Was resumed Wednesday
morning, and in the afternoon
his hat was found floating on the
water near the old O'Brien farm,
southwest nf the city, near where
his decoy ducks were found. 1t
is presumed that his boat struck
a snag of some kind, was ripped
open in the bottom, causing it to
sink, and as he was dressed in
his heavy hunting clothes, rub
ber boots, and carried a quantity
of shells in his belt, he was so
weighted that he was unable to
battle with the current and sank
to a watery grave. No sign of
mis- boat has been found. Search
ers were still out Thursday. He
was prominent Mason and 9
member of the United CONNER
cial Travellers, a loyal citizen
kind and loving husband, anC
his wife and family are almos
distracted over his sad fate.
Later. Mr.. huddle's canva'
boat was found Thursday after
noon, intact, lodged on the barl
wire fence on the south side O
the Gun Club grounds, and wa'
uninjured, SO it is evident he wa
thrown from the boat in som,
manner. Mr.. Huddles body waI
found between 5 and 6 o'clocl
Saturday morning in foot ant
half of water near the O'Briel

Weir's violin solos fully sustained.
his enviable reputation as a finished
artist, and Miss Clarice Jones at the
piano rounded out a program, which
for general excellence and admirable
balance, has not been equalled in
this musical center in many moons.
The success of Miss James initial
song recital is particularly gratifying
to her host of friends because of the
Frequency and cheerfulness with
which she has responded for a num-
Der of years to the calls of churches,
schools and movements for the bet
terment of humanity, and the many
helpful services she has rendered
absolutely without compensation and
oftimes at serious personal sacri-
flee.
Miss James is a graduate of the
Washington College of Music, one of
the very best in the country, and
has the distinction of being the only
member Of the colored race to finish
the arduous course of instruction
given there. She has done supple
mentary work in standard schools of
music in Boston and New York,
having specialized at Columbia Uni
versity in the nations metropolis.
She has long been a teacher in the
public schools of Washington and is
acknowledged to be one of the most
efficient members of the fine corps
boosted Of in this nub Of culture.
The recital was given under the
general direction of "The Eereanites,
social organization connected with
the Berean Baptist Church, and so
pleased are the friends Of Miss
James that it has been suggested
that she make a James Song Re-
cital' and annual event Rev. B.

MISS MARIE C. JAMES IN SONG
RECITAL.

Washington, D. c., June AT a
large song recital last Tuesday even
ing at the Borean Baptist Church,
Miss Marie c. James, a favOrite
prima Gonna of this city, proved her
self TO be an artist of the highest
quality and added new laurels to
her already richly-laden brow. Miss
James has been heard often in star
concerts, but at no time in her splen-
did career has she appeared to such
marked advantage as upon this oc-
casioR. The large and brilliant
audience was in accord with her
from the opening selection, and that
she thoroughly felt the inspiration
of their magnetic approval was in
dicated by the intensely dramatic
fire which she put into her music
and the ease with which she entered
into the spirit of the classic COM
posere, whose masterpieces she so
capably presented,
Miss James is placed by the most
competent critics in the front rank
of Afro-American singers. Being
gifted by nature with warm, rich
voice Of wide range and rare con-
tralto quality, she has enhanced this
natural gift by assidious study. All
of this entered into the equation at
Berean Church and scored for her
signal success. She has striven so
faithfully to achieve.
Miss James fine mezzo timbre
and versatility were admirably shown
in the wide range of the program,
which ran the gamut from Schulz
erts dramatic Earl King" and the
suppressed passion of Margaret at
the Spinning Wheel" to the out
burst of joy in Del Riego's Happy
Song" each selection being rendered
with adequate expression and an in
depreciation that was not short OF
mastery. She was particularly eff
fective in the difficult Lullaby"
from Godard's opera "Jocelyn," with
violin obligato by Mr.. Felix Fowler
Weir, the violin blending harmoni-
ously with Miss James warm, rich
tones an dsympathetic grasp of the
mother love that the situation de-
mands. She was repeatedly en-
cored and at the conclusion of the
Lullaby" she was presented with a
massive bouquet of American roses.
Other selections which caught the
fancy of the appreciative audience
were Autumn Gale" by Grieg, "My
Heart, at thy Sweet Voice" by Saint
Saens, and Der Wanderer" by
Schubert. AS an accompanist, Miss
Jennie Williamson is entitled to

Noah W. Cooper Opens Cam
paiSn,
Candidate For Mayor Addresses Citl
zens Of Twenty-Second Ward.

Mr. Noah w. Cooper, candidate for
Mayor Of Nashville, addressed a
good-sized crowd Of citizens of the
Twenty-second Ward, Waverly Place,
at the Waverly Place Drug Store
Thursday night He took occasion
to commend Mayor Howse for his
efforts in stamping out ignorance,
but condemned him for not enforcing
the law against vice.
Mr.. Cooper said in part:
"A new era in our city government
begins next October. We have set
our hopes to make it better than the
last. Forward march to better serv-
ice! That is the spirit and letter
of our new commission form of gov
eminent.
Our forefathers, as they declared
their independence and started new
era in government, prayerfully sought
Jehovah's guidance; closed their
glorious Declaration of independence
by appealing to the Supreme Judge
of the world for the rectitude of our
intentions, and climaxed all it's
wondrous words by saying and for
the support of this declaration, with
firm reliance on the protection of
Divine Providence, we mutually
pledge to each other our lives, our
fortunes and our sacred honor
Who will believe me for invoking
their noble spirit now? Even China,
the newest republic in the world has
followed their immortal steps, and
but lately begged the prayers of the
Christian world that God might guide
her ship of state. And what nation
state, city or man has ever gone to
ruin when Jehovah led the way?
I'VE all agree with Solomon that in
the house of the righteous is much
treasure, but in the revenues of the
wicked is trouble. We don't love
trouble, and hence we wish no wicked
revenue: we do want much treasure
and hence we wish every house in
Nashville to be house OF the
righteous. That is what l want
every house and home to be under
our new charter. That's my plat
form in nutshell, and upon it beE
and shall deserve the support Of al
our people.

Taxes and Debts.

"Our taxes are too heavy. Behold
the burden! Every family here has
to pay an average tax per year of
$40 to our city; $40 to our county;
S1l,5O to our state; and $50 to our
nation. This staggering yearly tax
of $211.5O per family is too much. The

that much, but in some way he does

Il shall do my best to reduce our
city tax from SIS on $1,000 to $14 on

must remember that we have bonded
debts hanging over us now amounting
per family to $24O for our city: $50
for our county; $50 for our state and
S51 for our nation Now an annual
tax of $211.50 per family and a public
debt of 1871 per family, together with
our private debts and the high cost
of living ought to make us pause
and ponder before any more debts
are made, autos bought, salaries
raised or taxes laid.
