KnOxville'S First
Trade Trip

The Knoxville Board of Com
merce is receiving enthusiastic
letters daily from the different
Boards of Commerce of the towns
and cities to be visited on their
First Trade Trip, assuring them
of their hearty cooperation in
making this trip the decided sue
cess the Knoxville organization
desires it to be. While this is to
the first trip that Knoxville has
ever made of this kind, neither
pains nor expense are being spar
ed to make it a success in every
way.
She purpose of the trip is not
altogether for business purposes,
or for selling goods, but rather
to meet the beople of the various
towns from whom they buy goods
and to who they sell goods, and
to bring them into a closer rela-
:. lship with each other.
In several of the larger towns
and cities where the Special"
is to stop for some length of time,
preparations are being made to
entertain the visitors in many
ways; while in the smaller towns
where the length of stay will not
permit of extensive entertain
ment, other forms will be pro-
vided.
The special will consist of eight
all-steel Pullman cars, including
two dining cars and one combi-
nation baggage and refreshment
car.
The train will carry over 100
of Knoxville's leading business
and professional men and manu-
facturers on board. Besides
these, there will be large brass
band to help make merry when
the visitors arrive in the various
towns and cities.
Each member of the party will
wear a white hat and carry a
striped umbrella in addition TO
wearing the regular badge.

Pike Road Bond Money

Much has been said in regard
to the way the funds have been
spent, and for what purpose they
have been spent. | want to make
a statement as to the amount of
this fund that has been paid out.
Up to the present date there
has been paid out of the fund for
which bonds were sold, to the
amount of $42s6.20, this has
been paid for the engineering
and incidental expenses for the
benefit of the road.
Ibelieve that it is due the tax
payers of the county that give
this information. 1t is here for
any one to see. Your servant,

JUDGE SAMPSON
HERE SUNDAY
Attended 65th Wedding
Anniversary of Parents.
Three Weeks More of
Court at Williamsburg.

Among those in attendance at
the celebration of the sixty-fifth
I wedding anniversary Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Sampson Saturday,
was Circuit Judge F. D. Samp-
son, who is holding court at Will
liamsburg. There are three weeks
more of the Whitley term of
} court and in the absence of the
regular Judge from the bench,
H. c. ellis, by agreement of
. party litigants, consented to act
as special Judge, thus affording
Judge Sampson an opportunity
to be present at the very noted
and unusual celebration, that of
a sixty-ffth anniversary of TIE
marriage of his parents.
! The present term of court at
Williamsburg is six weeks in
length and nearly all of that
time is being consumed in trying
civil cases and clearing up the
docket. There were no import
liant felony cases at this term ex-
cept one brought from Pulaski
county, and fewer misdemeanor
leases than usual. Judge Samp-
son is fast getting the would-be
criminals and law violators to
see the error of their ways by
his firm stand for law and order.
The good people Of this district
Iare proud of the record he has
made, while on the bench, in the
suppression of crime. Judge
sampson is popular and in the
coming August primary for the
Republican nomination for Judge
of the Court of Appeals he looks
Ike a winner.

Russians Go From Victory to
Victory

London, July 9.-The Russians
on the Eastern front are gong
from success to success and for
the time that theatre of the war
is overshadowing the Western
from the spectacular viewpoint.
Not only has Gen. Letchitzky
in the south occupied the rail
road junction at Delatyn, west
of Kolomea, thus cutting off
Gen. Won Bothmer from his sup
ply base. but Gen. Brusiioff in
tue north is making surprising
advances on both sides of the
Kovel railway toward the Stok-
hod river.
Tonight's Russian communi-
cation reports the enemy forces
in this region retiring in great
disorder and adds that the Rus
slams have occupied Huleviche,
about "a miles to the east of
Kovel, while apparently the
Russians are already across the
Stokhod river somewhere in the
region of Janovka.
German possession of Baran-
ovichi and Kovel are absolutely
essential if she is to retain her
hold over the invaded parts of
Poland AID Lithuania, but it is
considered likely that it is only a
matter of a few days before the
Russians will be in possession of
Kovel, which would compel Won
Linsingen's retirement from the
Lutsk salient.
German Official and unofficial
dispatches reflect anxiety over
the Russian advance as being
greater than even the Anglo.
French offensive which the Ger
man military critics contend
will not interfere with the oper
ations against Verdun.

Submarine Crosses Atlantic
With Costly Cargo

Baltimore, Md, July 9.-The
worlds first submarine mer-
chairman, the German under
water liner Deutschland. anchor
ed below Baltimore tonight after
coming safely across the Allan
tic, passing the allied blockading
squadrons and eluding enemy
cruisers watching for her off the
American coast. She carries
mail and cargo of $50 tons of
costly chemicals and dyestuffs
and is to carry back home a SIM
liar amount of nickel and crude
rubber sorely needed by the
German army.
Sixteen days out from Bremen
haven to Baltimore, the subma-
rine reached the Virginia capes
at las o'clock this morning,
passing in on the surface cover
ed by darkness which settled
over the entrance of the bay
with the setting of the moon.
Once inside the visitor threw
caution aside and began shrek
ing his siren, signaling a pilot
and at the same time attracting
the attention of the tug Thomas
F. Timmins which had been
waiting in the lower bay for
nearly two weeks to greet the
Deutschland and convoy her in
to port.
Three hours later the big sub
marine started up the bay with
the German merchant flag fly
ing under her own power, pilot
ed by Capt. Frederick D. Cooke
of the Virginia Pilots association
and conveyed by the Timmins.
She was making more than IL
knots an hour and could have
docked in Baltimore tonight,
but arrangements had been made
for receiving her with formal
ceremonies tomorrow and hcr
captain was ordered to wait irl
the lower harbor. He and his
crew of % men remained aboard
their craft.
