Capt. H. P. Seavy, of Iron City, for
many years one of the leading citi-
zens Of Columbia, died at his home on

lar here having a large number of
friends. He was long engaged in the

came interested and was agent of

for long time as postmaster at Iron
City He was many years ago a we'll
known correspondent of the Old

FIRE DESTROYS
GROCERY STORE
THE ENTIRE STOCK OF W. e
DooLEY LOST IN THE
FLAMES.

Fire about 4 o'clock this morning
totally destroyed the building occu.
pied by w. E. Dooley, grocer, East
Seventh and Wilkes streets. The en-
tire stock of groceries was lost in
the flames and it was impossible for
the fremen to check the fire on &C.
count Of the Roadway it had gained
when it was discovered.
The building was owned by Tom Nc
Gaia and is covered by insurance, it
is said. Mr.. Dooley's stock is fairly
covered by insuransce also, it is said.
The origin of the fire is not known.
On account of the early hour very
few people were aware of the fire,
but number of the neighborhood
arose to witness the flames. The
firemen did quick work after they ar
rived on the scene and they prevent
ed the flames from spreading to ad-
joining buildings.
The fire this morning was the first
In about two weeks. The exact
amount of the damage could not be
ascertained, but 1t is thought to be
several thousand dollars.
MIR. Dcoley values his stock at $500
of which $500 is covered with insur-
ance.

Nearly An Inch Fell in a Short Time

Warm and the Wind Blows an All

One of the most terrific rains that
the county has had in long time fell

a few hours this morning. from about
3 o'clock until o'clock, nearly an

there being intermittent showers.
In the past twenty-four hours q to-
tai of nearly two inches of rain has
fallen in the county and the river is
rising with unusual rapidity. Almost
every stream of the county was out

ing rapidly. Bottom lands were over.
flowed everywhere. The rain fell so
fast at 8 o'clock and again just after
s o'clock this morning that fields and
pastures were like lakes, the water
standing everywhere.
Duck river at Columbia rose IL
feet during the night the gauge
standing at II feet at o'clock this
morning and the river was rising then
at the rate of about foot an hour.
The rain did considerable damage in
washing lands that had been plowed
during the fall and in fields where
wheat had been sown so late that it
had not time to spread and take good
root.
The night was one Of the warmest
ever known for the season and the
wind blew a gale from dark until day.

MORE TEACHERS ARE
NEEDED IN THE HIGH
SCHOOL, SAYS BOARD
TWO ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTORS
NECESSARY TO MAINTAIN
STANDARDS.
COMMITTEE TO MAKE BUDGET
Standing Committees for the Coming
Year Are Appointed and Salary List
Will Be Submitted to the City Fa-
theirs at Next Meeting.

The board of education met Tues
day night and acted upon the question
of making out budget for the in
crease in salaries of the teaching
force at the Andrews building and the
increase in number of the force at
the High School for next year Supt.
Harris and the finance committee
were directed to make out the budget
after which it will be presented to the
beard of mayor and aldermen for
Their approval.
President Foster appointed the
standing committees for 1916, They
are as follows: Finance committee,
w. p. Boyd, ]. M. Dedman and E. E.
Erwin. Building and supply commit
tee, C. D. Adkisson, e. e. Erwin and
w. S. McFall Text book committee,
W. B. Greenlaw, chairman, w. P.
Boyd and A. B. Sowell. Legislative
committee, w. B. Greenlaw, Joe Ritz
and F. 0. Bennett.
Interesting talks were made by SUI
perintendent Harris and Judge En-
win in regard to the insufficient num-
Der of teachers at the High School to
keep lp the standard heretofore made
by the school, They both stated that
the increase in the enrolment from
all sections of the county made it abb
solutely necessary that two more
teachers be added, and the only way
of obtaining means to employ these
teachers, is to show to the citizens Of
the county where all expenditures
aer going and the good derived there
from. They asserted that the board
needed help not only from the city
fathers but from every citizen in the
county and If it was possible to get
the hearty cooperation of the city
fathers and the citizens combined
that much could be accomplished in
giving advantages for the instruction
of the young minds of Maury county.

FRANK I. LEOKHARDT
PLANS ERECTION OF
IMMENSE MULE BARN
FORMER FARMER WILL ENGAGE
IN BUYING AND SELLING THE
LONG EARS.
LOCATED on SOUTH MAIN ST.
Joseph Sharber Acquires OLD Leon
hardt Stable and Will Build Grocery
Store on the Location--To Move
There Soon.

Frank T. Leonhardt is making
plans for the erection OF mule barn
upon the lot Immediately behind the
veterinary hospital of Lr. James Nc
Mahon on South Main street. The
barn will be 66x75 feet and will have
all the modern conyeniences. Mr.
Leonhardt will build him an office in
the ten foot alley north of the hos
pital and will have an entrance to
his barn for his mules and wagons
from Ninth street.
Mr.. Leonhardt has sold his stable
on the corner of Ninth and South
Main streets to Joe Sharber, and Mr..
Sharber will tear away the old build
ing and erect new, modern building
thereon and will move his grocery
store there as soon as the building is
completed.
BY the tearing away of this old
building removes one of the Oldest
buildings in Columbia. The building
was erected in 1848 and was first
used by the Christian church as a
house of worship. 1t was finally
abandoned as a church and has since
been used as a stable, blacksmith
shop and at one time it was occupied
as saloon.
The building into which DR.. McMa.
han has recently overhauled and re-
modelled into one of the most up-to-
date veterinary hospitals in the south.
was formerly used by George Sarvin
as blacksmith and carriage shop
and it was in this building that he
patented the Sarvin hub, from which
Mr., Sarvin became to be quite a
wealthy man, The property has for
years been known as the "Noah's
Ark" property and the deed conveys
it as such.
w. M. Buchnau, owner Of the prop
erty Immediately north Of Leonhardt
property has commenced the tearing
away Of the sheds of his buildings,
and it looks as If he will do some i'm.
proving of his property.
When all Of this work is complet-
ed this part of the city will put on
quite a different appearance from
what it has presented for the last
thirty years.
