making it one Of the coming cities
of the state and Of the South.

by its author, Representative Hull.
of Tennessee, featured todays gen

Nr. Hull replied today to numerous
comments upon the provisions Of the
Income tax. To the suggestion that
it is class legislation and a distinc-
tion between citizens Of large means
and those without particular means,
he answered that its purpose was to

capted taxes and who are most able

DECIDED SUCCESS
BRILLIANT MUSICAL PROGRAM
MARKS SERVICES AT FIRST
METHODIST CHURCH.

Under the capable direction Of
Mrs. Charles H. Sharp, the choir di-
rectress, with Mrs. Ella Kelly organ
list, as accompanist, the cantata at
the First Methodist church on Sun
day was a most brilliant success. A
large audience heard the splendid
music especially arranged by Carrie
B. Adams and rendered by the junior
choir of the church assisted by sew
eral of the finest voices in the COM
munity. The audience was not con-
fined to the members of the congre-
CATION, large number coming from
other churches to hear the unusually
ambitious program. Every part OF
the program was admirably rendered
and Mrs. Sharp and the very capable
members of the choir have been the
recipients of many hearty congratu-
lations.

SONG AND SERMON
FILLED WITH EASTER
SPIRIT IN COLUMBIA
SPECIAL SERVICES AT SOME OF
CHURCHES AND DEcoRA-
TIONS ELABORATE.
MUSIC A FEATURE AT ALL
Children's Service at the Presbyte-
rian U. S. A. and ST. Peters Church
and the Cantata Is Rendered at
the First Methodist.

The Easter spirit was manifested
in song and sermon in the churches
of the city Sunday in most impress
sive manner. There were special
programs at some of the churches,
and where these special programs
were not undertaken there was, the
Easter spirit just the same. The dec
orations were in some instances elab-
crate and in all cases tasty and APP
propriate and suggestive of a new era
in the seasons as well as in the sym
bolic way.
Easter furnished topics for discus
sions by the pastors, and the delight
full weather permitted an extra at
tendance that swelled the various
congregations
Beside the sermons by the pastors
there was children's service at the
Presbyterian church U. S. A. at the
II o'clock hour, while the children
had their service at st. Peters church
at o'clock in the afternoon.
At all the services in the city there
was special effort for appropriate
music, and particularly was this true
at st. Peters and the First Metho-
dist AT the latter there was a spec
ial service at the night hour, when
the sacred caDtata, 'The Resurrec-
ton Hope" was rendered by the Ju-
nior Choir under the direction of Mrs
Charles Sharr The choir was as
sisted by number of the best voices
in the city, and it was an inspirins
service and a musical treat.

ern publication to be issued at Nash

other we'll known publishers. 1t will

field for such a publication would
seem to admit of little doubt. With
a practical newspaper man and mag

Mr.. Burch at the helm the publication
should be a success from the first

STATE TEACHERS
MAY HOLD SESSION
HERE NEXT SPRING
LIKELY THAT BOARD
OF TRADES INVITATION
WILL BE ACCEPTED.
The COMMITTEE IS FAVORABLE
Cordial Hearing ls Given Superln-
tendent Harris When He Tenders
the Request to Make Columbia the
Next Meeting Place.

1t is by no means improbable that
the state teachers association will
hold it's next annual meeting in Co
lumbia. The acceptance of the COR
dial invitation extended by the Board
of Trade through Superintendent
R. L. Harris, of the city schools is
regarded by the delegation from this
county as likely.
Mr.. Harris returned from the meet
ing on Saturday afternoon very hope
full of capturing the next session.
The next meeting place will be deter
mined by the executive committee
and Mr.. Harris appeared before that
committee with very pressing invi-
tation from Columbia He was close
ly listened to and was led to believe
that the invitation would receive ia
vorable consideration. The decision
will not be made for some time and
in the meantime it is probable that
further pressure will be brought to
bear by the Board of Trade upon the
committee.
The coming of this great body OF
teachers to Columbia would be q big
asset to the school interests of Co
llumbia and Maury county. More than
1 900 teachers attended the recent
meeting at Nashville and it is safe
| to say that not less than that pun
| Der would come to Columbia, in the
event this city is selected for the
meeting place.
1t would be the biggest conven
ton of any character ever held IL
this section. However, there is M
doubt about the convention beins
properly taken care of should it come
to Columbia.

INSURANCE AGENTS
ARE BUSY WRITING
TORNADO POLICIES
BUT LITTLE HAS BEEN CARRIED
HERETOFORE WITHIN LINZ
ITS OF COUNTY.
APPLICATION FROM ALL SOURCES
The Country Rates Are Higher Than
in the Town But They Are Very
Low In Comparison With Other
Forms of Insurance.

There has been more tornado in
surance written in Columbia and
Maury county during the past ten
days than in all the history of the
county put togther. AS general
proposition Maury countians keep
their property fairly well insured
against fire, and live stock from
death, but heretofore there has been
but little tornado insurance carried.
Since the storm Of the 18th, and
the repetition on the night of the goth
there has been change in sentiment
regarding this form of insurance,
and it is being looked upon with a
great deal more favor. Insurance
are reaping a harvest in the commits
sions, if there is any harvest in
multiplicity of applications. They are
writing policies ON the trains, in the
stores and on the public highways
where they meet citizens of the coun-
ty, and even t night after they have
cosed their places of business appli-
cations are made to the agents as
they wend their way home.
One insurance agent stated this
morning that he had written thirty
one tornado policies today, and the
other agents of the city are working
on a proportionately large scale on
this character of insurance.
The patrons of the agencies in this
line are not confined to residents of
the towns of the county by a great
deal. Applications from persons in
the country are as numerous as those
LOT the city, Notwithstanding the fact
that the rate in the country is some
what higher than it is in the towns.
However, the rate Is so low in COM
parison with the fire rates that 1t is
not burden to carry by any means,
and the amount of tornado insurance
in force in the county by the last Of
the month will be tremendous sum.
