WITNESSES MUST
OBEY ORDERS Of
CRIMINAL COURT
JUDGE j. T. MCKNIGHT WILL NOT
TOLERATE DISREGARD OF
SUBPoENAS.
AND Il. ANY FINE IS IMPOSED
Bench Warrant Issued Against J. Can
trell for Alleged Contempt in That
He is Charged With Attempt to
ntimidate Witness.

Witnesses who are summoned to
appear in the county criminal court
must attend or suffer the consequences.
That fact was made plain this morning
when Judge Mcknight imposed fine
of $25 upon a witness who failed to
respond to the courts summons and
upon failure to pay the same, commit
ted the witness to Jail. Not only that
but Judge Mcknight from the bench
stated that he would not tolerate dis
regard of the courts summons and
that witnesses who did not appear
would be attached and forced to suf-
fer the consequences of their con-
tempt Judge Mcknight stated that
he had had more trouble at this term
than ever before in securing the at
tendance of witnesses and such con-
duct would not be tolerated.
Attachment was issued Tuesday for
a witness for the State in the case
of the State against ]. Cantrell, of Mt.
Pleasant, who failed to appear. The
witness was apprehended and commit
ted to Jail in order that his atten-
dance when wanted might be secured.
Upon the statement of the witness that
he had failed to appear because Of
threats made against him by Cantrell,
the defendant, Judge Mcknight issued
Ia warrant for contempt against Can
trell, charging him with contempt Of
court in that he had sought to improp-
erly influence and intimidate wit
ness of the State.
Another defendant who did not ap-
pear upon the ground that he was
sick, was sent for and when produced
in court promptly entered a plea of
guilty to the charge against him.

The demonstration of Hoosier kitch-

alright: in fact, we have found it so
ever since we have been in business.
Mr.. Cook stated further that he
hoped that he would have as good at
tendance upon his Majestic stove dem

today and will last through this week
IF you will be so kind, | wish you
would say through your valuable pa
per, that we want everybody to visit
us this week and partake Of hot cup
of coffee, hot biscuits, cookies, etc. We
will have a man from the factory that
will demonstrate this wonderful range
to the housewives of Maury county

ton will learn something about ranges
and range cooking that they never
knew before"
