TEACHERS LICENSE
ISSUED HERE GOOD
ALL OVER THE STATE
IMPORTANT CHANGE MADE IN
LAW WITH REFERENCE TO
EXAMINATIONS.
old CERTIFICATES ARE GOOD
Those Issued Last Year by the State
On Grades Will Hold Until Tney
Expire-Rules With Reference to
Temporary Issues State.

County Superintendent John p.
Graham has received amendatory or
supplementary instructions from the
state superintendent with reference
to teachers examinations. AS the re-
suit Of these instructions no holder of
a state certificate now in force can
be compelled to take an examination
in the reading circle course. In other
words, the teachers who were examin-
ed last year and who received graded
certificates will not be molested but
their certificates will be recognized
during their life.
According to the law and the state
superintendent new Interpretation
no one need take this reading circle
course except one who wants to
change the Ave year certificate into a
permanent certificate.
This ruling also applies to gradu-
ates of normal schools who hold four
year professional certificates. Atten-
tion is called to the fact that tempo
rary certificates can be given only to
those who have stood an examination
and failed and no such certificate is
valid longer than the time for the
next examination.
One of the most important acts
passed by the recent legislature be-
came a law on May IA. This law
makes any certificate issued by the
state board license to teach in any
county Of the state regardless of
where the examination is held. In
other words certificates issued at the
Maury county examination this year
will make the holder eligible to teach
in any other county of Tennessee,
Heretofore in order to get state cer-
tificate or one good for any county,
the teacher had to go to one of about
a half dozen places in Tennessee and
be at considerable trouble and ex-
pense but these difficulties are now
obviated.

YOUNG SALESMAN
SETTLES CHECK
w. J. RUMLEY, JR., Is GulLTLESS
IN THE OPINION OF CHIEF
MLEAN.

W. J. Rumley, Jr., the young man
who was arrested in Louisville Sun.
day for giving a worthless check to
Harry Ritter, was brought back to
this city Tuesday night by Chief of
Police Tom Mclean. He paid Mr..
Ritter the amount of his loss, and re-
turned home this morning.
Chief Mclean is of the opinion that
Rumley was guiltless in the matter.
He found in Louisville that the young
man was really the representative of
the Red Wing Shoe Co., and that he
had right to draw upon the compa-
ny for expense money. The check
was turned down by them. Mr.. Rum
ley has brought suit against them for
the amount of it and also for salary.
The young man is Of good family,
and readily agreed to return to Co.
lumbia with Mr.. Mclean to settle af-
fairs.

OR, WALTER LAMBUTH
THRILLS HIS HEARERS
WITH AFRICAN TALES
THE GREAT MISSIONARY BISHOP
TELLS OF ADVENTURES ON
DARK CONTINENT.
VENT 1900 MILES INLAND
Has Made Two Trips to Heart of
Great Continent and Established a
Great Christian Mission Among the
UncivIized Tribes Of Country.

A thrilling story was that which
was told Sunday night to a packed
audience at the Methodist church by
Bishop Walter R. Lambuth, who for
an hour and half held the breath
less interest of his hearers as he re.
lated his experiences as a mission
ay nthe darkest portions of Central
Africa 1t rivalled the tales that have
been left by Livingstone and Stanley
of their adventures in the same con-
tinent.
Bishop Lambuth stated that he
made his first journey with a negro
IS his assistant. They went to Lon
don, where they got their outfit,
thence they went across to Antwerp,
in order to get credentials from the
Belgian government and from there
they took steamer to Africa. Trav-
elling by steamer a part of the time,
and by land the rest Of the way, they
made their way to the Presbyterian
mission, where they were most cor
daily received by the missionary in
charge. With his assistance, they Sc
cured go men to carry their baggage,
supplies, and other equipment to a
distant tribe through the African for
est. They we're forty-two days on
their journey. Their hardships and
difficulties were innumerable, and
their reception at first was not very
cordial Thanks to one of the guides,
who had been converted to Christian
ity, and who had been a boyhood
friend of the chief of the tribe twenty
years before, the attitude of the saw
age was completely changed, mis-
sion was established, and DR.. Lam,
buth was able to leave in order to
come back to America to attend a
meeting of the bishops of the church.
On leaving, he promised the chief,
who had become in few days a fast
friend of DR.. Lambuth, that he would
return in eighteen months. He was
detained, however, and had to ca
Bile from South America that he
would be back in six months more.
This DR.. Lambuth was able to do,
reaching the town of the chief just
twenty-four hours before the expira-
ton Of the time that he had promised
that he would come.
Dr. Lambuth told many thrilling
and exciting anecdotes of his adven-
lures, many stories of the lives and
manner of living of the savage tribes,
and paid a warm tribute to their cour-
age and fidelity. His recital Of his
adventures and the wonderful things
that had been accomplished convinc-
ed many of the real benefits and ad-
Vantages Of foreign missions.

SHEEP YIELDED A
PROFIT Of SEVEN
DOLLARS PER HEAD
THAT is THE RECORD MADE BY
r. L. HAYS, OF THE NEAPo.
LIS SECTION.
FACTS and FIGURtSARE GIVEN
Prominent Farmer Declares That He
Knows From Experience They Are
the Most Profitable of All Farm
Stock-Testimony of M. {. Allen.

The Maury county farmer who in.
s1sts that there are no profits in
sheep will have to show r. l.. (Doc)
Hays, one of the leading farmers of
the Neapolis section. Mr.. Hays ex-
perience for several years and espec-
tally during the past season fully dem.
onstrates the contrary. Last summer
Mr.. Hays bought 200 Alabama ewes,
which cost him 81 head or $500 for
the lot. He sowed rye and barley and
carried these sheep and lambs
through the past winter with practi.
cally no feed. This week he sold the
wool from the sheep for 5000 or dol
lar head. He then sold the ewes,
their lambs included, at $40 per head
or approximately $4,000 In other
words he received $11 a head for the
ewes that cost him year ago or less
four dollars head, the difference in
the selling price and the buying price
being $1,400. Mr.. Hays has turned
under the rye and barley upon which
these sheep were pastured and is
planting the land in corn. He esti-
mates that the pasturing of the sheep
and the winter cover crop and green
manure will be worth to the land the
cost of the seed and sowing. OF
course these sheep had some pasture
besides the rye and barley but allow
ing $400 or So a piece for that and
there will yet remain a profit of IS
a head. Mr.. Hays believes in sheep;
he thinks it a grave mistake for the
farmers to abandon them in this fa-
vored section where ordinarily one
can have pasture the whole year.
The view of Mr.. Hays is shared by
other farmers Of the county and by
stock men generally. Said M. E. AL.
len, the veteran sheep buyer of the
county, also sheep raiser: when
farmers counted themselves fortunate
to get five cents for their lambs and
about two and a half cents for the old
sheep there were twice as many
sheep in Maury county as there are
today. Yet profits from sheep are in
creasing all the time. l know from
an experience of thirty years that for
the investment, the attention requir-
ed, the fencing and the barns, every
thing considered, sheep are by long
odds the most profitable animal on
the farm. The only danger in this
county is the dog"

IN CITY LOUISVILLE
w. J. RUMLEY, JR, WILL BE
BROUGHT BACK HERE TO
FACE CHARGES.
fLEECED HARRY RITTER FOR SIS
Made His Appearance Here on March
23, But Was Caught Only Monday
Through the Energetic Efforts of
Sheriff Walter Griffin.

After awhile, perhaps some day be-
fore the millennium, check takers are
going to learn not to ply their busi-
ness in Columbia. Another one is In
the tolls of the law for engaging in
this nefarious business in the city.
W. ]. Rumley, Jr., is his name. He
claims Louisville, KY, as the place
OF his abode. Harry Ritter was his
victim here.
On March 20 very nice appearing,
oily tongued shoe drummer put In his
appearance here. He made himself
very affable to all whom he met. He
became fast friend of Harry Ritter
through his ingartiating manners.
After their friendship had developed
somewhat, he asked the popular gro
ceryman to cash check for him, as
his expense money from the house
was running rather low. The next day
he went south to Pulaski. Some time
later the check was returned with
the statement that there were no
funds to cover 1t.
On arriving at Pulaski, the gentle
man proceeded to attempt to get
fresh" with some of the girls at
Martin College, whereupon upon COM
plant of President Wynn he was ar
rested, hailed before the city court,
and fined for his misconduct. He
paid his fine from the funds which
he had secured from the cashed
check. After this escapade he was
lost sight Of.
Upon hearing that the check was
worthless and that he had been filch-
ed out of $55, Mr.. Ritter reported the
matter to Sheriff Walter Griffin, who
started a search for Mr.. Rumley. In
talking with drummer at the Bethel
House a short time ago, he learned
tht the formers headquarters were
in Louisville and that he had relatives
there. Thereupon Mr. Griffin laid the
whole matter before the chief Of po-
lice of Louisville, who has been
watching for him. Monday Mr.. Grif-
fin had a wire from him that he had
the man, and that he would deliver
him to him if he would come to Lou
isville.
The sheriff sent Chief of Police
Tom Mclean to the Kentucky city
Monday night. He has received as
surances that Rumley will return
without requisition papers. Conse-
quently he may be expected back
here tonight to face the charges pre-
ferred against him.

G. T. Archer went to the county
road Monday afternoon to serve a
sentence of six months for selling
liquor without license.
Some time since, while his case was
before the supreme court of the
state, 1t is alleged that Archer left
Tennessee in order to avoid the term

knight was affirmed in the highest
tribunal of the state, he continued
his residence in other parts. His
bondsmen became uneasy, fearing
that they would have to pay the $3.50

In some way or other, 1t is not
very clear in what manner, the infor.

while he was away, that his case had
been compromised and that he could
come back home upon the payment
of the costs in the case. This he
did, but he had not been in Williams.

hard fight, but lost. The case was
appealed to the supreme court, where
he was again defeated.
