Leased Milling Plant.

The Howell Grain & Feed Com
pany, this city, has joined interests
for term of years with the Cherry
Moss Grain Company. The former
plant consists of machinery and ele-
vators for the handling and manu-
facture of all kinds of feed, and the
company, under the management of
Mr. Walter Howell, has built up
trade over a large portion of the
South. The mills, years ago the
property of the Hardy Grain Com
pany have been entirely remodeled
and considerably enlarged with
equipment and capacity for making
feedstuff of the highest market val
ue and variety, and Mr.. Howell re-
leases management on account of
the fact that his banking interests
require his undivided attention.
The CherryMoss Grain Company is
a rapidly growing institution, enter
ing the wholesale grain and feed
business here some years ago. Mr..
Luther Cherry will be general man
ager of the plant under the name Of
the Howell Grain & Feed Co., while
Mr.. Cecil Moss takes up the work he
was doing in the grain Office on First
street. The new interests will no
doubt continue to do a large and
growing business.

CONFEDERATE CH|EFTA|N
Death Of Noted Cavalryman at
Hickman, XIV.

Gen. H. A. Tyler, famed as dashing
Confederate cavalryman, died Monday
morning at 11:45 O'Clock at his mag
nifcent country home near Hickman,
KY, after an immediate illness of three
weeks from kidney trouble. Funeral
services will be conducted at Hickman,
and interment will be made in the city

Gen. Tyler, II years of age on April

Florida winter resorts, where he went
for the benefit of his health. Up to a
year ago he was communicating chief
of Forests cavalry corps for ten years,
and was succeeded at the Jacksonville
reunion by Gen. Baxter Smith, of Chat
tanooga, Gen. Tyler retiring because of
ill health.
"Oakwood," the home of Gen. Tyler,
is one Of the show places of Kentucky.
1t has been the scene of many house
parties, attended by society people from
all over the South. One son, Robert
Tyler, is the only survivor of the Con-
federate chieftain.
Gen. Tyler at one time practiced law
at Nashville. He later engaged in bank
ing, manufacturing and live stock rails
ing in Kentucky, and amassed for
tune. His wealth was applied to the
upbuilding Of his community, and his
charities were many and varied.

Alderman Adams wanted to know how
the city managed to borrow $40, 800 for
the schools, and Mr.. Walker replied
that the note was worth nothing at all
except upon the security of individual
Endorsement. Mr.. Walker added that
the city could not issue more bonds un-
der the charter. The per cent clause
of the charter is not repealed under the
new law providing for 20 per cent bond
issues, and the city would in increasing
its bonded Indebtedness lay itself liable
to injunction.
DR.. G. w. Miles was opposed to the
building Of a city hall at present, which
he termed extravaganza under the pres
ent pressure. He agreed with Mr..
Walker and that it would be very i'm
provident act for the Board at this time.
Judge Kenney, D. P. Caldwell and
others had some criticism to make, and
finally G. w. Miles, Jr., offered a reso-
luton that the city memorialize the
Legislature for an enabling act to issue
bonds for $15, 1000, with which to build
a city hall of ample and adequate pro-
portions, including an assembly room
of 500 seating capacity. DR.. Turner
seconded the motion and it carried
unanimously, adjournment following

BOND ISSUE OF $4,000
FOR A CITY HALL BUILDING
To Ask Legislature for An Ena-
bling Act.

Pursuant to a desire on the part o
the Board of Mayor and Alderman tt
get an expression of the people of Unior
City relative to the building of city
hall public meeting was held at the
courthouse last Friday night, called by
the Business Mems Club. Pending the
making of a contract by the building
committee, which was instructed by the
Board of Mayor and Aldermen to act,
number of our citizens came together
as above stated. j. G. Burdick, presi-
dent of the Business Mems Cluo, was
chairman of the meeting, and the pur.
pose of the meeting was stated.
Members of the Board were called on
for statement. The Mayor, Mr.. Rey-
nolds, stated that the present revenues
would take care of the years expenses,
provided nothing unusual took place.
He did not produce an itemized state
ment but gave general report OF the
city finances. He added that he favored
the erection of City Hall, built accord
ing to the proposed plan, whereby the
city's paper could be carried for two
and four years. This would not affect
the present revenue for the year and
the city needed hall. He mentioned
the city's outstanding Indebtedness of
SO, ,500 school note, which of course
will be provided for with the 1915 taxes,
and the bonds of $93, ,000
DR.. Turner, chairman of the building
committee, spoke in favor of the Sher-
rill proposition. The city had tried to
get contract with our local and other
contractors, but failed to find anyone of
the building firms or individuals who
would be willing to carry the city for a
term of years on such contract. There
fore the Sheriff. proposition was reported
favorably, and accepted by the Board.
Here the chairman called on others
for opinions on the subject. Mr.. John
L. Walker opposed the building of
city hall at the present time for obvious
reasons, he stated. In the first place,
it is bad business to take up an improve
ment which is not altogether neces-
sary in money stringency like the
present, and especially at time when
the city had so many other obligations
to carry, viz: the sinking fund and in
terest account, the improvement of the
Water and Light Plant, present and |
which will amount to thou
sands of dollars, and the school note of
SO, 800. The extension of streets and |
sidewalks and sewerage should also be
provided for before a city hall is built.
Ir. Walker stated further that the city
,ould not make legal note under its
harter and that note for city hall
would not be worth anything.
The charter provides that the city can
lot undertake any liabilities over 6 per
ent OF its realty assessments. Here
