REV. CARPENTER HONORED.

Rev. Homer Carpenter, pastor of
the Shelbyville Christian church,
and who married Miss Tevis Carpen-
ter, daughter of DIR. and Mrs. j. G..
Carpenter, of this city, has just been
highly and signally honored by be-
ing chosen Chancellor of Transylva-
MIA University, College of the Bible
and Hamilton College at Lexington,
and has rendered his resignation as
pastor at Shelbyville to take effect
the first of September. Mr.. Carpen-
ter's election was made several
weeks ago by the combined boards
of the three institutions and COM
mittee was sent to notify him of their
action. He took the matter under
consideration, being at first loath to
give up pastoral work, and it was
not until second committee visited
him and urged his acceptance of the
position that he gave them favora-
BILE answer. The position is new
one just created by the boards of
the three institutions, which are now
combined under one head, and the
work will be similar to that done by
President Crossfeld. The place was
made necessary by the great increase
in the institutions, Pennsylvania
alone having five hundred students.
1t is the leading college of the de-
nomination in the South.

CARMEN" HERE THURSDAY.

A feature attraction at the opera
house next week will be the pre-
sentation of Geraldine Farrar in the
great opera Carmen" on Thursday
evening, as a Paramount feature. In
securing the appearance of Miss Far
rar before the motion picture cam
era the Lasky company scored the
greatest coup in the history of the
motion picture industry. In Scar
men" Miss Farrar is seen as the half
wild, fascinating gypsy who is the
head of a band of smugglers. How
she leads one man to death and an
other to ruin and is herself stabbed
by jealous lover are but incidents
in this thrilling five reel picture. The
bull fight scenes were specially
staged by a company of toreadors
brought from Spain and with bull
brought from Mexico.

COURT WINDING
UP MAY TERM
Civil Suits Occupy Attention During
Closing Hours-Three Prison
ers Taken to Penitentiary

The May term of Circuit Court
will probably adjourn late this after
noon after three weeks of work. As
the /. j. goes to press, the attention
of court is directed upon the civil
suit of VIII Carter, of Missouri,
against his brothers, j. NJ. and c. H.
Carter, of this city, for $500 from
each, which he claims should have
come to him as a share of their IA
theirs estate. Quite a number of
witnesses have been heard for each
side and the case is being hard fought
by Attorney ]. B. Paxton for the
plaintiff and Attorney K. S. Alcorn
for the defendants.
In the case of the Wheeling Mould
and Foundry Co., against Will Cor
der for $3.50, alleged to be due or
the purchase of a gasoline engine, a
jury gave a verdict in favor of Mr.
Cordier, in which they gave him his
contention of a counter-claim against
the plaintiff. He alleged that the en-
CINE was defective.
The case against D. S. Bromley. OF
Louisville, was continued, it being
understood that a compromise agree
able to all parties concerned has
been arranged.
The damage suit of Peter Gose, a
Pulaski county negro against the L
& n. railroad, was thrown out Of
court by the jury, it being shown
that the plaintiff had no grounds for
securing damages from the railroad.
Charles Robbins, of the East End,
secured a judgment against A. K.
Gooch, of the same section, of SIS
damages for use of a passway.
Attorneys were here this week ar
guing point in the famous Robin
son insurance case. 1t was finally
decided by the court that it will be
tried upon it's merits at the Novem-
Der term of court.
A jury gave Rhoda Higgins, a ne
gress from the Deep Well Woods sec
ton a fine of $50 for selling whisky
to Hiatt Burge. The charge against
Burge of procuring whisky for an
other was dismissed.
Everhart Reynolds was acquitted
on a charge of incest. He is local
negro.
The grand jury has so far return
ed II indictments into court, a num-
Der of them being for the illegal sale
of liquor. 1t is expected that the
grand jury will be finally discharged
from duty today. A number of wit
nesses were on hand this morning to
go before it.
Three prisoners were taken to the
penitentiary early this week by the
sheriff and his deputies. All were
convicted at this term of court. They
were Joe Hooker, two to five years
for killing Ollie Gardner. Alfred
Jones, two to five years for chicken
stealing; James Jones a year for tur-
key stealing. All are colored.
