VOTE is UNANIMOUS
AGAINST PURCHASING
WATER PLANT BYC|IN
SMALL NUMBER AT MASS MEET.
ING THOUGHT THAT $4,000
WAS TOO MUCH.
ASK ESTIMATE ON new PLANT
Shelton Robinson, for Water & Light
Co., Asks That City Authorities
Submit Proposition for Filtration
and Meter Systems.

The citizens who attended the mass
meeting at the court house Thursday
evening, voted unanimously to reject
the purchase of the water plant of
the Columbia Water & Light Co. al
the appraised value of $4,000.
There were but few more than
score at the meeting. In fact, the at
tendance was very disappointing. A
lamentable lack of interest in the
matter of having better water facili-
ties, most vital question, was dis
played.
The sentiment of those who were
at the court house was decidedly
against buying the water plant. Will
liam F. Anderson presided over the
meeting, and most of those who were
present expressed their views. Judge
E. e. Erwin explained the report of
the board of appraisers, reading to
those present the itemized report that
was submitted by the board of it's
value and of the statement Of its f.
nances.
When the question was put as to
whether the city should buy the plant,
there was not vote for its purchase.
Thereupon Hon. w. c. Salmon made
motion that the board of mayor and
aldermen be requested to get esti-
mates of the cost OF erecting new
water plant for the city, including
with it a filtration system. The mo-
ton, seconded by Thomas B. Forgey,
was carried.
j. Shelton Robinson appeared for
the Columbia Water & Light Co.,
stating that the company was willing
TO put in a filtration and meter sys-
tenn, if there were adequate, just and
reasonable return and compensation.
He stated that the report of the ap-
praisers showed that the earning ca
pacity of the plant at present was
mot such as to warrant such an ex-
penditure without son" adequate re.
turn. The city authorities will be
asked to submit to the Water & Light
Co. proposition for these improve
ments. The latter some time since
made a proposition to the municipal
authorities, but it has neither been
accepted or rejected.

FINAL HIGH SCHOOL SIGNAL DE.
clDEDLY BEST EVER FROM
PRESS.

By all odds the most ambitious is
sue of the High School Signal is the
number that has just been issued
from the press of The Herald. It is
also decidedly the best, and one that
should take rank in literary charac.
ter with the student publications OF
any school in the state.
The thirty-six papges are filed with
first class reading matter, well writ.
ten, interesting in character, and
showing no marks of crudeness of ex-
preston or language. To lend to the
attractiveness Of the issue, there are
number of full page cuts of the edi-
torial board of the paper.
To acQuaint themselves with the
high grade of work that is being done
at our city schools, it would be worth
the time of all the citizens to secure
a copy Of the Signal and read it from
cover to cover. 1t will not be a diff
fcult matter to do after the first page
has been read, for the first glimpse
will be So interesting that it will be
hard to lay it down until every word
has been perused.
Those pupils who wish to secure a
copy Of the Signal may get It by call

NEW HOUSE WORSHIP
DR.. BREWER, THE PASTOR, is
HEAD OF MOVEMENT FOR
LARGER CHURCH.
WILL Be BUILT ON OLO site
Cards Are Being Distributed Among
The Members, Requesting that
Each Member Pledge SO Much to
The Erection of the Building.

The First Christian Church of this
city Is attempting to raise funds
with which to build new house of
worship.
Dr. G. c. Brewer, pastor Of the
church, is the prime agent i'm the
movement to build the new structure.
He is conducting a personal campaign
among the members for it, and tomor-
row morning he will make it the sub
ject of his sermon. Cards are being
distributed among the members of
the church, requesting them to state
how much each can contribute.
If sufficient funds are secured, the
old church building viii be razed, and
after considerable excavation has
been done for a cellar and heating
plant, the new structure will be
erected upon the same site. It will
be much larger, have much more
room, and be much mere ornate and
capcious than the present one. How
much 1t will cost is yet a matter that
will have to be decided. The amount
OF funds secured by subscription will
determine this.
While he has been here but a few
months, less than a year, DR.. Brewer,
the pastor, has shown that he is ac-
tive, progressive, and filed with am
bition to. have his congregation have
the best of material things as well as
spiritual. He is power in the pull
pit and on the streets. He is a good
mixer and with his indomitable ener-
gy, he is sure to have his congrega-
ton housed in another structure be-
fore a new year rolls around.
The membership of the Christian
church is one of the largest in the
city, and numbers some of the most
prominent families here.

GREATEST CROP OF
CHERRIES [vERKNOWN
!. MAKES PRICE TUMBLE
-
ANNOUNCEMENT OF A REDUc-
TON OF THIRTY.THREE PER
CENT is MADE.
FLAVOR EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD
For the First Time in Years the Sup
ply Appears to Be Above the De-
mand-one Of the Greatest of All
Table Delicacies.

Not in the memory of the Oldest
inhabitant has there been such crop
OF cherries known in Maury county
as there has been grown this year.
The May or early cherry has produc-
ed in unprecedented abundance. More
cherries probably have been offered
to the people Of this county, during
the past three weeks than have ever
been placed on the market here in
that length of time.
In truth the growers and dealers
declare that there is some evidence
OF supply exceeding the demand. This
is reflected in the reduction of price.
The market opened at fifty cents per
gallon or three dollars for the reg.
ualtion crate. For a time there was
steady demand at these figures, but
on Thursday Horace Rainey, proba.
bly, the largest cherry orchardist in
the South, and one of the largest In
entire country, authorized the an
nouncement that the price would be
cut exactly thirty-tbree per cent and
in the future, at east for ten days,
fine cherries in the greatest abun-
dance could be obtained for 50 per
crate. This is the first time this re-
duction in price has been known in
years.
Not only is the cherry crop bump
er, exceeding previous records, but
the fruit is exceptionally choice.
They have ripened well and are of un-
usual flavor and owing to the long
dry weather require less sugar for
canning and preserving and prepar-
ing for the table than is usual. They
are regarded in the South as one Of
the greatest of all table delicacies and
no swell" Southern breakfast is held
to be quite complete unless there is a
dish of cherry preserves to go with
not biscuits made as only Aunt Dinah
IAN make them. Mr. Rainey is max
ng shipments to all parts of Middle
Tennessee and Alabama and other
points.
