KILLED
IN MINES
John Cawthorn Meets Tragic
End at Tiptop Mine.

Mr.. John V. Cawthorn, a high
ly respected citizen, on last
Friday met with horrible acci-
dent which resulted in his death
"a hours later.
Mr.. Cawthorn was digging coal
in his room at the Tip top mines,
his partner Mr.. Martin Conry
being in the room with him at
the time of the accident. A
huge piece of slate measuring
over 3 feet broad, and over 7
feet long and 13inches thick fell
striking Mr.. Cawthorn in the
back of the head inflicting a
terrible cash which reached the
base Of the brian, Conry called
for helf and the driver came and
they lifted the slate from his
head, and placed Mr.. Cawthorn
on the car and brought him to
the mouth of the mines. He
spoke 2 or 3 words which were
the last he ever uttered. He
was brought to town in a wagon
that happened to be passing at
the time.
Medical aid was hurriedly
summoned but it was seen from
the first that nothing could be
done for the unfortunate man.
Mr., Cawthorn was a man whom
you never saw "peeved" or mad.
He took things as they come.
mo greater tribute can be paid
Ito q man than to say che num-
bered his friends by his acqnain-
EtAnces. s-''l '''.-'''
He leaves a widow and three
bright children, Freeda, Earl
and Turney to mourn his loss.
Mr.. Oawthorn was a member of
the l. 0. r. M. Wampunola tribe

population of our town in ex-
tending sympathy to the bereav-
ed ones.

Mrs. Will Dent Catches Fire
Before Open Crate.

Last Saturday afternoon while
sitting before an open crate en-
gagged in polishing her baby's
shoes. Mrs. Will Dent who re-
sides about one half mile from
town happened to a serious but
not fatal accident. Her clothes
caught fire from the open CRATE,
and she became so excited that
she ran out in the open, and at
that time a high wind was raging
and she was soon enveloped in
flames. She then fell striking
her head on a stone inflicting a
very ugly cash in her head which
is giving her much pain.
Her husband hearing her
screams rushed to her and smoth-
cred the flames with his bare
hands burning all of the flesh
from his left hand, and blister :
ing his right hand.
Mrs. DENTS limbs and back
were more seriously burnt than
any other part of the body.
Medical aid was hurrledly secur-
ed and DIR. Stone the attending
physician states that they are
both doing fine, under the con-
ditions.

Death of Mrs. Mollie Gerren.

We are very sorry to read Of
the death of Mrs Mollie Gerren,
mother of Prof. Jno, M. Gerren.
We deeply sympathize with
Brother Gerren, IN this the
greatest loss that can befall man
that of mother, but it should be
great consolation to him to
know that she has gone to a
fairer cline, she having lived
a devout Christian life for over
a half century, at the time of
her death she was 78 years of
age.
In one sense death can not
take mother. Her Image will
never be blotted out. AS George
Edward Jackson has said.
estates change, Governments
perish and Nations migrate, all
things ebb and flow, but mother
is mother from the beginning to
the end Of time. Her days are
yesterday, to-day and forever.

ROBBERY SUSPECTS
TAKEN IN CUSTODY
Men Arrested in Connection
With Looting Bank
of SeWanee.

Frank Summers, aged 4S years,
and Joseph Peffer, aged 20 years,
suspected of having participated
in the robbery at the Bank Of
Sewanee last Wednesday, were
located in a restaurant SUNDAY
morning and were Immediately
taken in custody on charges OF
safe-blowing and being from JUS
tice. They were traced to NashT
Vile bv A. ID. Kirby, chief OF
police at Huntsville, and j. w.
Dodge of the Burns private de-
tective agency.
The impress of broken tooth
in half eaten apple which was
found in the Sewanee bank on.
the morning after the robbery
led to the apprehension Of the
alleged thieves, it is said. A
tooth of one of the men arrested,
here bore a striking resemblance
to set made bv q Sewanee den
tist from indentions in the apple
found in the bank.
When arrested Sunday morn
ing the suspected men had 10
their possession two bottles of
nitro glvcerine, several sticks Of
dynamite and supply of burg
lars tools, according to the Off
GERS. Chief of Police Kirby and
Detective Dodge we're assisted in
their work by City Detectives
Irwin, Dowd, Winfry and Jacobs.
A telegram dispatched from
the Maxwell House station SAT-
urday to f. johnson OF Decatur,
Ala, brought the officers hur-
riedlv to this city. The officers
believe the dispatch was sent by
the suspected men to another
member of their gang.
Not over $40 in money was
found missing from the looted
bank on the morning the robbery
was discovered. The thieves are
believed to have been frightened
awav after setting of two charges
of dynamite. A youth sleeping
in the basement of the bank was
awakened by the last explosion
shortly after 4 O'Clock in the
morning. He quickly secured a
revolver and fred several shots
in the direction from which the
sound came. The apple was
found in the rear of the bank,
near the safe, after the police
had made an investigation and
found no clue.
A reward of 500 was offered
by the Tennessee Banking As
sociation for the arrest of the
daring robbers, while q similar
amount was offered by the Amer
lean Banking Association. -

on love and applying them to Mary's
case 1 could not hefp~but think, lit
tie book, that we certainly had made
a mess of it for Mrs. Jack Waverly.
Dick, with the best intentions in
the world and with the fear that Jack
would do just what he had done, had
persuaded his father into making a
will which would only give Jack his
share of his mothers estate if, at the
time, he was still married to his
wife, Mary"
There is the rub. If that win
had been worded, still living with
his wife, Mary" it is probable that
Jack would have stayed with her and
tried to be nice to her so that she
would not leave him. Instead he can
go his own sweet way and still be
married, % while Mary, with her great
sense of honor and duty, will not try
to get a divorce frfom Jack. In fact,
little book, she said to be the other
day: 'Margie, no matter what hap
pens, 1 can't divorce Jack, for it would
look as though 1 were trying to re
taliate and keep him out Of his share
of his fathers estate.
Il am happier here than was in
the, chorus. 1 have something to do
that like very much, and, Margie, I
am now going to confess to you that
am also happier when Jack is away.

One day you are hurt and sick be-

heartedness that you haven't had for
a long time.
You may not realize what has
happened. When 1 first felt it l

genial work. Then all at once I real

either honestly or dishonesty. Now
that he has gone his way I feel per-
fectly comfortable and happy. The
only hurt that l have, Margie, is that
1 no longer love him. :"
I must have smiled at the incon-
sistency Of her last remark, for, she
spoke very seriously. ''Margie,
hope you will never realize the feel
ing that comes to a woman when
she finds that her love is dead. l be-
ieVe the pain is as poignant as when
the loved one himself dies. Some
times l almost feel like a wicked

ly and truly more content than I
have even been in my life. Of course,
/ haven't that ecstatic Joy and bliss

our marriage, but l know, Margie,
that no one can have that more than
once or twice in ones earthly exis-
tence. Each ones life only holds one
real dramatic moment - mine has
come and gone, but the sun still
shines and my heart is still warm"
After what Kitty told me this con-
versation came back to me and it
seemed to me that Many's trouble
had only made her more Iovable, but
could not help thinking that, having
known the bliss Of love, it would be
very natural for her to want to ex-

lives, so guess well just have to let
her work it out for herself this time.

The last sitting given by Washing
ton was for Sharpless, who made a
Mechanically correct profile which
furnishes the authority for the pro-
portions of the subjects features.
OF all painters, none achieved more
than Gilbert Stuart, who, it is general
ly agreed, has given to the world the
best likeness of the man. Stuart's
success was probably due to the fact
that he kept his subject from self
consciousness by entertaining him. In
the two originals Of this artist, and in
the twenty-six copies which he made,
he left noble personification of wis
dom and serenity to the American peo-
pie in the person Of the first president.
In color and finish, as well as in life
like resemblance Of features, no Wash
ington artist has approached him. At
the time of the Stuart sitting Wash
ington's mouth appeared rather unnat-
ural on account of two new seahorse
ivory front teeth which substituted for
the generals own. The failure OF the
first portrait, which was destroyed,
was probably traceable to this fact.
The Stuart picture Of Washington
standing with a sword in his left hand
was made expressly for the Marquis
of Lansdowne, who was SO delighted
with the canvas that he declared it
was only his advanced years which
prevented his crossing the ocean to

thank Washington for allowing this
picture to be taken.
Although several copies of this paint
ing were made by Stuart, the painting
in the White House, so long consid-
cred his, was not done by that master.
It is the work Of an obscure artist,
who substituted his own copy for an
original which the government pur-
chased for $500.
Another interesting fact about this
picture is that during the time when
the British were in Washington in
1914 it stood out in inclement weather
for several days. This was because
the man to whom it was intrusted was
afraid to keep it in his house for fear
of being punished by English invaders.
AS Stuart did not excel in represent
ing Washington's figure, this picture
does not meet all the requirements Of
q good painting. The hand Is said TO
be too small, as Stuart used the wax
model of his own hand in making the
picture.
Stuart's famous Washington por-
trait, made for Mrs. Washington, was
never entirely finished, because the
artist always managed to delay COM
pleting the background. Finally,
Washington, after frequent sittings.
became annoyed and told the artist
that he would sit no more, but to send
the picture home when 1t was finished.

USE SWEET CLOVER
TO IMPROVE SOILS
Kansas Agricultural College
Shows Where Newly Recog-
nized Crop Is Profitable.

Sweet clover excels alfalfa as a
cattle pasture and is superior to all
other crops for improving soils de-
ficient in organic matter, though 1t
has been lately overrated as a crop
to grow under all circumstances.
These conclusions are reached as a
result of Investigations by the agron-
omy department of the Kansas State
Agricultural college.
"In the past two years." says c. c.
Cunningham, assistant in co-opera-
tive experiments, there has taken
place in the popular mind a radical
change in opinion regarding sweet
clover. Once considered a noxious
weed. it is now recognized as valu-
able crop. To a large extent sweet
clover Is deserving OF this change OF
opinion regarding it, but. like any
new crop that suddenly comes into
favor. it has been overrated for grow
ing under all conditions. 1t has
proved valuable, however, under GER
tain conditions and for special pur-
poses.
Sweet clover can be grown to ad-
vantage for hay on some soils not
adapted to alfalfa or red clover. 1t
is. however, a substitute for these
crops and is useful for hay when the
more valuable kinds cannot be sue
cessfully grown.
Sweet clover is of value as pas
ture and soil improvement crop and
will undoubtedly be extensively util-
lied for these purposes. Properly
handled. sweet clover will furnish
more pasture than most ctNer pas
ture crops, especially on the poorer
types of soils. 1t excels alfalfa as a
pasture for cattle, In that 1t rarely
causes bloat Sweet clover Is SUI
perior to all other crops for use In
improving soils deficient in organic
matter"
