friendly suit was filed IN chancery

in the suit. Recently Attorney Cen

FORMER APPRAISAL
OF WATER WORKS
DIFFERENCE OF THE APPRAls-
ERS WAS TWENTY-FIVE
THOUSAND.

During the month of April, 1898,
the city waterworks We're appraised
in accordance with the provisions of
the charter which provides the ten
year periodical options. At that time
the appraisal, according to the min
utes kept by the city recorder the
report of the board of appraisal was
completed on April 90, and filed with
the city board o. mayor and alder
men on ay 3.
Maj. E. G. Lewis, now of Nashville,
then of Sycamore, was the appraiser
for the city, while j. e. Thompson, OF
Murfreesboro, represented the water
works company. w. B. Ross was Tie
third member of the board, and the
records show that he agreed with the
figures made out by Mr.. Thompson
for the waterworks company. Mai
Lewis went into the appraisal of the
property in detail with an aggregate
of $4,000, while the estimate of the
ether two appraisers was not esent-
ed in DETAIL but given in a lump sum
at $4,000.
The difference of $4,000 was en-
tirely too much for the city and no
action was taken toward making
purchase

been refused by the Southern and
Adams Express Companies, although
shipments intended for points outside
OF the state are still being accepted
This action has been taken under
the anti-jug law passed at the second
extra session, which provided that no
alcoholic liquor of any kind should be
shipped from one county in Tennes-
see to any other county, and already
the place where the country citizen
was able to obtain his little drink is
feeling the pressure of the new law
This announcement of the action
taken by the express companies here
has been adopted in other points
throughout the state, and word comes
from Memphis that agents there re-
fused at least two wagon loads on
Saturday for points in Tennessee, but
that packages and boxes intended for
Arkansas and Mississippi were being
accepted.
Attorneys for all the railroads in
Tennessee are also Investigating the
eject of the recent laws so as to
guard the freight agents of their
lines in taking shipments of this
character.
It is understood that John Bell Kee-
be. consulting attorney in Nashville
for the Louisville & Nashville Rail
Grad, had his decision ready as soon
as the law passed, and that his ruling
prevents the roads agents from &C.
ceptng alcoholic liquors of any kind
for shipmetn as freight by the rial
roads. How seriously the two new
laws will affect the business of the
express companies and the railroads
remains yet to be seen. That it will
have a decided effect is certain, and
with the parcel post service to COM
pete with the Tennessee branches of
the two big express companies will no
doubt find the profit side of their
ledger growing smaller year by year.
The railroads will, of course, be af-
fected, but probably not so heavily,
for not so much of this class of goods
is sent by freight

CHURCH CORNER
STONE Is MISSING
LEBANON CONSIDERABLY PER.
TURBED OF STRANGE CO.
INCIDENCE.

LEBANON, Tenn, Oct. 20.-The
whereabouts of the corner stone OF
the Methodist church is matter that
is puzzling the officials of that church
and conjectures are rife. The old
Methodist church building that has
just been RACED to give way for the
building of the new $4,000 church ed
ifice on the same site was built long
before the war, and after the war
was used for several years as a
school building in connection with
the church, and it was one of the
Oldest landmarks in the city, and
some years after the close of the
war the frot of the church was remod-
eled and the corner stone according
to the best belief of the old members
here, was removed from the founda-
tion and inserted in the stone work
of the front of the church.
One or two letters have been re-
ceived here recently telling of certain
documents and newspapers that were
placed in the cornerstone at the time
OF the remodeling in connection with
the other old documents that were
placed there when the structure was
first built, and asking that the officials
preserve these documents, one of
which was one of the first copies of
the first county paper, the Herald,
ever published here, of which Mr..
Neal was editor at the time and later
DR.. R. L. c. White. The contractor
of the new building, w. S. Page, was
instructed to be on the lookout for the
corner stone either in the stone work
of the church or in
the foundation itself, have been of no
avail, and the mystery as to the
of the old corner stone
remains as deep as ever.

DEMONSTRATION WORK
ON IRRIGATED FARMS
Cooperation Between De-
partments of Agriculture
and Interior to Continue.

Cooperation will be continued this year
between the Department OF Agriculture
and the Interior Department in the mat
ter of farm demonstration and experiment
station work on the big reclamation
projects of the government In the west
and on several of the Indian reservations.
This work has been going on for several
years and is considered SO important that
ii is being extended.
The work with the Indians has resulted
in the establishment of the Egyptian cot
ton industry in the southwest. This has
brought a new and very desirable strain
of cotton into the United States and has
given the Indians of the arid region
good paying crop that they are well
adapted to handle.
Helps Solve Indian Problem.
One of the troubles that has always
been experienced by cotton planters Is
that picking a cotton crop entails so
much hand labor that it is hard to get and
is unreliable The Indians as a rule have
the necessary labor i'm their own fam
lilies and on their reservations. Now that
they have found ii to be good paying
labor they are very willing to undertake
IL, and this helps to solve largely the
Indian problem and an important agH-
cultural problem at the same time.
On ,he reclamation projects there are
now eleven experiment stations. extend
ing from Yuma to the Canadian line.
They have taught the newly arrived ir-
rigatlon farmers a great deal about
crops, preventing the accumulation OF
alkal and conserving the fertility OF
the soil. .~-lAH
Aim at More Stock.
What IS projected during the coming
year is to Introduce more stock breeding
into the irrigated region. With the cut
ting I'd OF the Big cattle ranges. the cattle
business in the west has been on the
decline.
There mas never been any effective
move toward cattle raising in the irri-
gated region. and il IS felt by the de-
pa tment that this is a paying branch
OF farming that ought to be encouraged.
and will have a marked effect in better
ing the condition of the farms. Both
beef and dairy strains are to be intro
duced and d sseminated.
