IN HISTORY Of SCHOOL
TWO HUNDRED AND TWELVE
PUPILS HAVE ENTERED THIS
LARGE INSTITUTION.
TEACHERS IN THEIR PLACES
Invocation by Dr.. S. D. Logan, While
J. H. Dining Makes Speech OF Day.
Mr.. and Mrs. Majors Make
Music,

With two hundred and twelve
pupils in their seats, the largest en-.
rollment in the history of the school,
Mcdowell School swung wide its
doors Monday for its fall term.
All teachers were In heir places, and
with the large number Of pupils thers
is every prospect for the most sue.
cessful year in the history o. this
notable institution Never before
during the many years in which this
county school has worked, have
there been SO many pupils or such .
competent staff of instructors on hand
for the opening of school. Several
more are expected to be in attendance
before the term is far advanced.
The program was opened With an
invocation by DR.. S. D. Logan, pastor
of the Garden Street Presbyterian
Church, and was followed by ]. H.
Dining, who made the address or
the day Mr.. Dinning's efforts were
we'll received, and his talk made
decided impression on the pupols be-
fore him. Mr. and Mrs. Majors rend.
cred some delightful music, which
was thoroughly enjoyed by the large
audience.
At the conclusion of the program.
the work of properly classifying the
pupils, and assigning them to their
proper instructors was commenced,
and the class room work was actively
entered upon. The text books were
assigned, and within few days, the
regular routine of school life will be
begun.

NOT An ARREST WAS
MADE FIRST MONDAY
IN ENORMOUS CROWD
NEW RECORD MADE WHICH
WILL PROBABLY LAST FOR
SOME TIME TO COME.
MUCH QUIETER THAN BEFORE
In Old Days Many Arrests Would
Have FolIowed.-No Booze Could
Be Procured, Friends Of ProhIbi.
ton Claim this az the Cause.

In spite of the enormous crowd
that was in town Monday, there was
not a single arrest made by either
the county or city officers. Not a
drunk was seen on the streets, there
were none of the usual fights, and no
cases of disorderly conduct were re-
ported. This established record in
Maury County, as never before in
history have ten thousand people
collected on the streets of Columbia
without leaving some in the city,
safely behind the bars of one Of the
iails, when the free ones commence
their homeward journey.
Earlier in the summer, first
Monday passed without an arrest,
but nothing like the crowd was on
hand that day. There were not more
than haR Of the people in town that
day as on Monday, but the record
was thought to be memorable one.
Without doubt, the record OF this
First Monday in September will last
for many day, One Of the most
prominent officers of the law in the
county said this morning that IN his
many years experience, he had never
seen Columbia so quiet from his pro-
fessional viewpoint as it was on Mon.
day.
The friends of prohibition in the
city ,ascribe the order of the crowd
as to the fact that no liquor could be
procured, and consequently there
was no incentive to disorderly con.
duct They claim that in the olden
days when the booze flowed freely
that large number of lock-ups would
have taken place with the enormous
crowd. They feel distinctly proud
of the fact that amount 10000 people
there was ont single drunk.
The officers of the law we're parti.
cularly viligant all day. but their
services were not in demand, at all.
The only exceptions to this were
when Officer Lancaster killed an al
legged mad dog on School Street Mon
day night, and when the county Off
GERS made an arrest for bootlegging
east of the corporate limits of the
city.

Daughters Have Appealed For Help.

The committee engaged in raising
$4,000 to raise the debt on The Kings
Daughters Hospital have continued
meeting with success in their efforts
and since the last report $294.5O has
been contributed A feature of the
announcement of the committee IS
that Col j. K. Orr has offered to pay
the last $3.50 of the amount, and the
Kings Daughters feel that such a
splendid opportunity will never again
be given them for the raising of the
debt. Col Orr's proposition is that
if the hospital fund be raised to
$3.50 that he will give the $3.50
necessary to complete the $4,000 re-
quired. There remains $1,000 yet to
be contributed before Col. Orr's offer
can be secured, ana the Kings
Daughters have appealed to their
friends through the county to come
to their rescue and raise this
amount, so that advantage can be
taken of this most generous offer,
fully pay the debt, and relieve the
hospital from its burden.
Four new $50 contributions have
been received and this brings the
number in this class up to fifteen,
with only five more $50 subscriptions
to be received. One more citizen has
given $25, which makes fourteen in
this list. Three have promised So
as well as a number of smaller or
miscellaneous amounts.
The committee are actively engag-
ed in putting up to the people of the
county the proposition that it is now
or never as concerns the raising OF
the debt, and they feel tina the
hospital has done so great work N
the community, that the support OF all
the citizens is warranted. When the
amount required is raised, the hos
pital will be a permanent institution
in Columbia, and the Kings Daugh'
ters think, and so do many of their
friends, that an unlimited opportun-
ity for doing good will be at hand

suits my case. After using the
medicine about a week or ten
days, my appetite and digestion
are much better. | now sleep
better and feel stronger in every
way"
Tanlac, the premier prepare
ton, that proved such a boon
to Mr.. Peetz and hundreds Of
