Novel Introduction
Seen in White Sister

One of the most novel intro
auctions to a photoplay ever pre-
scented is shown in the White
Sister," Essanay's six-act photo
play. The inovel, written by F.
Marion Crawford, glides out on
the stage, apparently without hui
man agency, presents its back
with the title Of the book, turns
around and opens to the frontpiece,
showing a full length picture of
Viola Allen, the famous stage star
who leads in the play. Miss Allen
is then seen to step right out OF
the page in diminutiye from and
increase to natural size, when she
makes a bow to the audience, and
the play is on. This great feature
produced by Fred E. Wright, will
be shown at the Kozy theatre today.

Days Changed.

A large number OF singers as
at Pleasant Hill, in the
Fourteenth district, near Hillside,
on last Saturday and spent the
two days in song service. On
Saturday a large was present to
enjoy the splendid vocal music,
but Sundays attendance was lot
SO large, the all.day rain keeping
hundreds away who had planned
to hear the good vocal music
rendered by those fine singers.
The convention was presided
over by the president, Prot. J. v.
Atking, with Mr.. Aaron Camp
bell as secretary at his post. The
audiences were favored with a
number Of renditions by some
fine quartettes, two OF which are
famous the country over. One
OF these was Vaughan's quartette
from Lewisburg and the other
was the John B, Vaughan
ouartette from Athens, Ga. Local
quartettes also entertained the
crowds with some splendid music.
The new book adopted is The
eleanor" published by Trio Com
pany, Memphis.
The next meeting will be held
with Corinth church, located be-
tween Dresden and Sharon, and
will be held on Thursday and
Friday before the first Sunday in
October. The meeting days are
changed from Saturday and Sun
day to meet the public demand
It has been contended for some
time that if the days were
changed there would be fewer Of
the rowdy element to create dis
turbances, and this is probably
true. Anyhow, it will be given
a tryout. The order at the
Pleasant Hill convention was
good, there being but one drunk
man on the ground, and his case
will be aired before the grand jury
now in session.

Jury Appointed by
Judge G. 7. Mayo

At the hearing before Judge
Mayo in the matter of the North
Fork Drainage District, on last
Thursday, Judge Mayo appointed
the following gentlemen a jury OF
view: Esq. A. F. Higgs and Mr..
Olando Smalley.
It will be the duty Of these men
to 60 over the proposed drainage
district and assess all the damages
to each land owner, making sworn
report to the Judge. This work
must be done as early as possible.
At this meeting, on motion OF
the petitioners, the petition was
amended so as to eliminate four
creeks which had been placed IN
the original survey. These creeks
are Cypress, Cane, Knob and
another one. This will take out
of the drainage district some 2,OOC
acres OF land and reduce the
general average cost per acre con-
siderably, besides meeting the
appreciation Of a large number o.
land owners.

ing capacity. 1t is conservatlvely
estimated that this averages 70
per car, which would mean that
a county with 100 machines OF
all types and classes would secure
$500 for the roads Of their county.
The amount apportioned to
Weakley county to date is S232.25'
It is estimated there are 200 auto
mobiles in this county, which, at
$3.50 each, would mean the sum
of $1,000, less expenses, etc., for
collection. This would build some
thing like half a mile Of graveled
road, provided the farmers haul
the gravel and do the necessary
grading free OF charge. OF course,
if there are more than 200 auto
mobiles in the county there would
be greater amount, but our
estimate places the number Of
cars owned in this county at 2OO
