HOOPER FOL- OVERS
PREPARE To LAUNCH
CAMPAIGN IN MAURY
PETITION WILLIAM JENNINGS
BRYAN NOT TO SPEAK HERE
ON FRIDAY.
Following the Speech of Governor
Hooper His Supporters May Hold a
Meeting, Name New Committee
and Nominate Candidate Senator.

Supporters of Gov. Hooper in Maui
ry county were busy Saturday after
noon. In the first place they took
steps at a secret conference to pre-
vent Bryan's speaking here on next
Friday for the democratic ticket. AS
the result of the conference petitions
were prepared and circulated asking
the Great Commoner not to speak for
the democratic ticket at this time.
Many of the Independents signed the
petitions.
Independents declare that while
Bryan will not make any converts for
the democratic ticket by speaking
here, at the same time they do not
want him to come. Whether or not
the petition will have any effect it
not known, but the belief is general
that Bryan will not change his mind,
having behind him the whole Wilson
administration, he will come here and
speak for Rye. Both Bryan and Will
son have publicly declared for Rye.
At the meeting of the supporters
of the Governor it is said that plans
were made for a county Independent
mass meeting on next Saturday aft
ernoon, following the speaking of
Gov. Hooper. At this time it is un-
derstood that new county independ-
ent committee will be elected, num-
Der of the members of the present
committee being open supporters of
Rye There is also some talk of the
nomination of a candidate for the
senate at Saturdays convention,
some of the Independents insisting
that they should have candidate
who is an avowed supporter of Hoop
er. Just whether or not this move
ment will materialize is not known.
Should the convention be held on
Saturday a strong endorsement of
Gov. Hooper and Messrs Denton and
Long, the independent candidates for
the house, is probable.
The coming of Bryan on Friday at
10 o'clock and of Hooper on the fol-
lowing day at l o'clock will formally
launch the campaign in this county
this week. The former will sound
the keynote for the democracy of the
state, while the latter will make a
plea for a third term. A big attend
ance is expected at both meetings.

tificate was due to the high grade
that he made when he was first ex-
amined. He will complete four terms
when the court meets in January and
it is the universal opinion that the
county has never had an ADLER SUI
perintendent or a more faithful or eff
ficient official Under his admins
tration of eight years the schools
have made marvellous progress. His
election will be gratifying to teach

people generally.

SCHOOL RALLY DAY
WAS GREAT SUCCESS
IN EVERY RESPECT
IN SPITE OF THE MANY DlSCOUR.
AGEMENTS THAT WERE PUT
IN ITS WAY.
JONES and CLARK SPEAKERS
More Than 1000 Children Packed the
Opera House to Listen to Distin-
guished Orators of Day-Introduc-
ed by Prof. John p. Graham.

In spite of the diphtheria scare,
which kept hundreds of children from
coming to the school rally this morn
ing, yet when County Superintendent
John P Graham arose at II o'clock
to introduce the speakers of the
morning, the opera house was practi
cally filled with nearly 1000 children
from all sections of Maury. Between
200 and 800 of the younger children,
who could not get in, were sent to
the Athenaeum, where they were en-.
tertained with stories most of the
morning.
The parade of the children through
the streets of the city was an inspir,
ing one. Nearly every child in the
line was provided with flag of the
United States, and some of them,
who knew the national hymn, sang
it as they passed through the bust
ness section of the town. Large
crowds of men and women stopped
all business in order to see the pa
rade
Upon arrival at the opera house
shortly before II o'clock, they were
assigned their seats, but most of the
boys preferred to stand and give
yells and sing songs until the speak
ing began.
On the stage were County Superin-
tendent John P. Graham, City Super
intendent R. l.. Harris, Prof R. L..
Jones, of the Middle Tennessee State
Normal, Prof. Harry Clark, of the
State University, Hon. W. c. Salmon,
, of the city board of education, and
John M. Burns, Of the county board
Of education.
The speakers were introduced by
Prof. Graham. The first address was
delivered by Prof. Harry Clark, who
took as his subject "The Reading
Course" He advocated more play
grounds, better school facilities at
school in the country II the children
were to be kept upon the farm. He
stated that it was the prevalent idea
that the country boy got enough ex-
ercise by blowing old Beck. And yet,
he said, when these farm boys came
to the University of Tennessee, gym
nasium measurements showed that
they did not have the all round phys
ical development Of the high school
boys from the cities, who had had
gymnasium advantages. The speak
er made a strong plea for making
country school life more attractive
to boys and girls, to provide play
grounds, gymnasiums and other such
attractions to make the boy and the
girl prefer life on the farm.
When Prof. R. L. Jones, the ex-
state superintendent of education
arose to speak, he was given a genu-
inc ovation by the boys and girls.
He made a strong, forcible plea to
them to avail themselves of the ad-
vantages that were offered them at
their schools, and when they complet-
ed them, to go to college or to nor
NAL school for further training.

DEATH OF EMPEROR MENELIK.

The Emperor Menelik of Abyssinia died
on Friday last week.
Menelik II. Emperor of Abyssinia, king
of Kings" and "Lion of the House Of Judah"
who was seventy-three years Of age, has been
reported dead so many times since he suffer
ed a stroke of paralysis about five years ago
that his passing is robbed of the thrill bis
personality has earned.
Menelik became Emperor of All Abyssinia
in 1889. In 1895 a quarrel broke out with
Italy, and war was declared in 1895. Early
italian successes were followed by serious
reverses, and after an overwhelming disaster,
in which the Italians had two-thirds OF their
army put out of action, AbyssiniA's indepen-
dence was Acknowledged and in 1906 Great
Britain, France, and Italy signed an under
taking "to respect and to endeavour to pre-
serve the integrity Of Abyssiuia. Ibid.

MONSTER BATTLE CRUISER.
Launch Of The British Tiger,

The battle cruiser Tiger, the largest yes
sci which has as yet been launched for any
navy in the world, took the water OF Tues
day at Messrs. John Brown and Company's
shipbuilding yard on the Clyde. She was
ordered for the British Navy in 1912, and
will displace about 28,50O tons with her trial
load, or some $1,000 tons with her full
weight of coal and stores on board.
She resembles the Lion class in her gene
raj particulars, but is larger aud more pow
erfully armed and engined. Her battery
will consist of eight 13,5in. guns, each firing
a 1,400lb. shell, and twelve Gin guns in
place of the sixteen Ain. weapons which the
Lion class carry. Her engines will be of the
turbine engine type and of unexompled
power, and she is expected to exceed 100000
hip. on her trials.-Ibld.

A UNIQUE GOLD COIN.
Acquisition For Tbs Nation.

An extraordinary and, indeed, unique goIa
coin has just been purchased for the nation
by the Trustees Of the British Museum, With
the generous assistance of several private
subscribers. It is the only known exunpla
Of the gold coinage Of the Auglo-Saxon King
Ola Ap. 747-796l the most celebrated Of
all the Mercian princes, the friend Of Charlie
magne, and the recipient Of many presents
from that Emperor.
TIE coin is remarkable not only on acconu9
of its |uniqueness and of the fact that it is
the earliest gold coin that can be definitely
ascribed to any English king, but also be-
cause, although il was struck by Il Christian
king, it bears a Mahomedan Inscription IN
Arabic. At the time Of the issuing of tie
coin the Arabic dinar formed q large part Of
the gold currency of Europe, and it is beIieE-
ed that it was for this reason that Off4 caua-
ed an exact imitation of an existing Arabic
coin to be made for his own use. While tie
artitioer may have been and most probably
was, ignorant OF Arabic, the characters
were reproduced with such fidelity AS to
make it easy to dec'pher them to-day. The
inscription ruus:--"Ihere is no ether God
but the one God. ;, &c. The date
of the original Arabic coin was about 20
years before the time of Offa. 1t is inscribed
according to the chronology of the Hegiru,
on the coin struck by his orders bid.

"MONNA LISA" FOUND.
Discovery Or The PICTURE In Florence.

Our Rome Correspondent reports the re-
covery at Florence of Leonardo's masterpiece
'Monna Lisa, better known as 'Gioconda.
The authenticity of the picture is set at rest
by the fact that it still bears upon it the
Louvre number and stamp.
The thief is an Italian named Pergugi,
who was formerly in the cleaning and res
t|oration department of the Louvre. He
s~muggled the picture across the frontier
in a trunk fitted with a false bottom. Geri,
the dealer to whom he tried to sell the pic
ture, has been interviewed by the .lfatin
correspondent. He states that at the be-
ginning of December he received a %lettor,
dated Paris, November %. signed "Leonar-
do" in which the writer said:-"The work
of Leonardo da Vinci is in my possession.
1t seems to belong to Italy, since its author
is an Italian. 1t is my dream to restore this
masterpiece to the land whence it came and
the spot which inspired it."
Geri thought that this communication was
the letter of a lunatic, but he decided never
theless to communicate with the authorities,
and q reply was sent asking the writer to
come to Italy.
After "Leonardo" had been given an as
surance that any price he asked would be
paid for the picture, an appointment was
made at Milan. Geri heard no more from
his mysterious correspondent, who one day
appeared in his shop at Florence. IN the

A BATTLING THEFT.

Among the many stories of stolen pictures
none has created such worldwide sensation
as the robbery Of Leonardo ia Vlncis @'Mon-
na Lisa or LA Gioconda" from the Louvre
on August %. 1911. The picture MAS not
in its usual place on the previous evening
but it was supposed to have been taken o.
be photographed. The Louvre is closed on
Mondays, aud August q was a Monday.
When the galleries were opened on the
Tuesday it was realized that the famous por-
trait was 40 longer in its place, and Paris
was startled at midday by the news~that the
"Mouna Lisa" had been stolen.
The picture gallery was Immediately clos
ed, and the Minister of Fine Arts gave 0 d IS
that a rigorous search should be made III
every room and corner Of the museum. But
in spite Of innumerable clu9s, and the dis
covery of many "originals" and rePlieas, the
Louvre picture remained l9st.-I6td

THE HEART OF LONDON.

London had q surprise on Tuesday when
1t was announced that the Duke of Bedford
had sold his great town properties-the
COvent Garden estate-for a record figure
slightly under E3, OF ,800-to MIR. Mallaby-
Deeley, Mp. The magnitude of the sale
the largest real estate transaction on record
can be judged from the fact that it in
cludea Drpry Lane Theatre, the Royal Opera
House, and two other theatres, Covent Gar.
den Market, and BOW-street Police Court,
nineteen acres in all Of what is probably the
most valuable property III London outside
the City. The property has a history which
goes back to the days when Knight Templars
~jousted in their grounds off the Temple, and
when the monks of Westminster refreshed
themselves by walking within the walls Of
their eOvept garden. The sale has naturally
given rise to a flood Of recollections and of
historical anecdotes-of old Drury Lane
with its memories Of Nell Gwyn, of the Adel-
phi and William ferries, of the Royal Opera
House, rich IN tales of many generations OF
the worlds greatest artists. Every street
and almost every house 10 these nineteen
acres has it's story. Here Samuel Pepys lived,
here, scarce a stones throw away, is the
scene of the most touching Of one Of Dick
ens's greatest stories; here the literary lights
of the Victorian age foregathered here
Charles II. RECALLED himself, So one might
go Oh, walking Town from Holborn to the
Adelphi, telling the tale of each house as
passed. The sale by the Duke Of Bedford
is part of his deliberate policy to rid himself
of much of his real estate because Of recent
and promised land Legislation.
Mr.. Mallaby-Deeley, NJ. p.
The interest in the sale. however, is oclip8od
in the interest of the personality Of the
purchaser. DIR. Mallaby-Deeley, NJ. 2. was
only recently mainly known to those who
have heard his name as being the brother Of
Mr.. Frank Curzon, the famous theatrical
manager. Perhaps there IS no country like
England where SO many men of great wealth
and great power are allowed to live almost
wholly unnoticed lives. We can all remem-
Der the surprise a few years ago when the
hitherto unknown City ~inancier, Mr.. Charles
Morrison, died, and it was discovered that
he had left behind him 100000 0O, mainly
earned by his own financial skill. Quite re-
Gently a modest newspaper paragraph an
nounced that an old gentleman and his wife,
living unknown in Tunbridge Wells, had left
a fortune of n million. MI. BIallaby- Deeley
is one of those men who have been going
right ahead outside the llmelight. He is the
son of a Liverpool merchant, and had q dis.
tinguished career at Cambridge. He took
up politics, first as assistant private secretary
to Mr.. Henry Chaplin, and afterwards as q
member of Parliament. -Four years ago
London heard with surprise that Mr.. Malta
by-Deeley had purchased the Piccadilly
Hotel for half a million, ut o price less than
the cost of erection by some hundreds Of
thousands of pounds. Then came the start
