OLD NED'S HEART
FAILS; DROPS DEAD
FAMILY HORSE OF COL. JNo. L.
CRAIG EXPIRES ON MAIN
STREET.

Old Ned, the family horse OF Col.
John L. Craig for nearly quarter of
a century, created somewhat of SEN
sation when he dropped dead from
heart failure on South Main street on
Monday. The horse had been fix
ture in the Craig family for many
years, even before John, or Honus, as
he is better known, startled the ma
tives of the Culleoka section Ly his
meteoric rise as the greatest half
back ever known to the annals Of
football His sudden and unexpected,
not to say unceremonious demise,
was quite a shock even to one of the
metal of Col. Craig. 1t was source
of poignant regret to the Colonel that
the quarantine regulations did not
permit of a decent burial, cremation
being substituted.

Gently returned from Washington,
where he had an extended conference
with Attorney General T. Watt Greg
ory in regard to the duties that he
will have to perform as attorney gen.
eral of the Juneau district in Alaska.
For the present, I shall not an
nounce my appointments. After a
conference with Gen. Gregory, he
stated to me that it was the policy of
the department of justice for a new
appointee to familiarize himself with
the duties of his Office before making
any appointments under him. l shall
act in accordance with these instruc-
tions, and so shall not be in hurry
to name my assistants.
81 had q very interesting confer
ence with Mr.. Wickersham, the dele
gate from Alaska. He told me all
about Juneau, where shall make my
home. He says that the climate there
is but very little different from what
it is here. In fact, he advised me to
wear exactly the same clothing there
that l do here He gave me a great
many pointers about the people Of the
country, and the system Of legal pro.
cedure that is used in the courts OF
Alaska. 1t is somewhat different
from that in the federal courts of this
country. It will be somewhat new to
me at first, but think that shall
soon be able to get on to these chang
es and variations from our legal pro.
cedure.
II also learned while was in
Washington that / shall have charge
Of some very important litigation in
! the federal courts about the fisheries
which are one OF the big industries
of Alaska. I shall have to take charge
Of this case soon after my arrival
there.
From what I have learned, both
from reading and from talking with
those from Alaska, think that shall
be much pleased with my duties and
that my stay in Alaska will be very
pleasant one"

Regard to the Annexation of This
Suburb Of the City.

The expenditure of all money col

cept that which is received for school
purposes, upon Improvements in that
section of the city was the PROPOSE
tion that the board of mayor and al
dermen made Friday evening to the
committee of citizens from Riverside,
who want to come into the corporate
limits of the city.
The committee was composed of
several representative citizens of the
suburb across the river. They came
in spirit of inquiry and to get a
definite proposition from the city IA
theirs, in order that they may have
tangible proposition to present to
the other property holders, who are
yet doubtful of wanting to come in
until they know exactly what River.
side may expect if this section should
be annexed.
The spokesmen Of the committee
were A. H. Smith and Fred Latta
They have been most active in the ag
itation of the matter Of annexation
With them they brought petition
signed by twenty-one citizens of Riv
erside, asking incorporation as part
of the city.
There was considerable discussion
of the question, the city fathers being
a bit slow in their proposition. One
of the questions that hung was who
would keep up the bridge across the
river. This is now the property Of
the county. Mr.. Rainey bears the ex
pense of the repair on the floor The
city council was afraid that the city
would have to take over the bridge
and maintain it if it we're brought
into the corporation limits However
they decided not to cross this bridge
before it was reached, and so made
the fiat proposition to them which
has been stated above, and which is
the same that was made two years
ago when the question Of incorpora
tion was agitated.
The council also made it under
stood that the citizens of the Other
suburbs would have the liberty Of
coming in the corporate limits ant
enjoying the advantages that the city
has to offer in the way of lights, wa
ter, fire protection and schools on the
same conditions as were made to the
inhabitants of Riverside.

JUDGE TURNER INTRODUCES !
NEW CUSTOM IN COURT
CIRCLES.

Judge W. B. Turner has introduced
a very pleasing innovation in the pro-
cedure of the circuit court, over
which he presides. He has had print
ed a complete docket of the cases
that are set for this term, and the
dates on which they will be tried.
This is a very great convenience to
the lawyers of the bar, as they may
keep this memorandum and - know
exactly the days on which they will
have cases before the court.
The innovation has proved very
popular, and has received many CON-
mendations in court circles.
