ATTACH LANDS

FEE OF $500 FOR NEGoTIA-
TlON OF SALE.

s. O. Thomas has filed an attachment
bill in the chancery court against Geo.
w. Williamson, of Alabama, seeking
to attach the two-ninths interest of
the latter in 228.42 acres of the land in

for which he was to receive commits
sion of $500; that thereafter the de-
fendant wired complainant that the
deal was off and refused to consum-
mate the same. The suit is therefore
filed for the collection Of the commits

MANY WILD BIRDS
CAUGHI I BY CITIZENS
ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN
LOST FROM THE FLOCK
FLYING NORTH.

Several birds of various species are
being caught daily by citizens all over
the county and many have been
brought to The Herald office, the bu-
reau of information, to determine the
name and species.
Harry Cranberry was the first to
bring in his catch on Monday and
after much investigation and debat-
ing, it was impossible to locate the
bird and it was turned over to its
owner still unnamed.
Mrs. w. T. Pipkin, who resides about
three miles from Bigbyville, brought
to this office all cased safely in a
roomy box, a coot, bird originally
of South America that inhabits the
low, marshy places and swamps This
is very stupid bird and made no
fight whatever when he was located
and pulled from under stump by Mrs.
Pipkin.
1t is supposed that either these
birds were blown in by a hard wind
or were flying North for the summer
and were lost from the flock.

HALF CENTURY
No T00THACHE
REMARKABLE RECORD OF FOR
MER SHERIFF WHIT
HIGHT.

Patrolman Whit Hight on Thursday
passed the ffty-seventh milestone OF
his life. His record in many respects
has been a remarkable one. In all
that time he has never experienced the
toothache, nor had an ache in his head.
Not a single gray hair now shows.
Twenty years ago he made his first
race for office and made a complete
canvass of the county. He probably
knows more nearly where every man
in this county lives than any person
in public life. Two years later he was
again a candidate and was winner,
being reelected for second term.
No man in the county has a more ex-
tensive acquaintance or numbers more
friends than Mr.. Hight, who has been
on the local police force now for many
years.

recommended.
Two bridges have been recommend.

In the following plain, dignified
statement Judge ]. T. Mcknight, of
the county court, replies to the attack
made by R. A. Wilkes of Culleoka.
Judge Mcknight shows how Mr..

charged to the trustee on January |,
as the law directs, with the amount
of cash actually on hand. The county
judge also makes it plain that SO far
as he is concerned his record is an
open book, subject to the inspection
of all. The statement in full, follows:

Friday Night at $3.50 O'clock.

The superintendent and faculty Of
the Columbia High school have ar.
ranged to give a special reception to
the public at $50 o'clock on Friday
night, for the purpose Of showing the
citizens of the city and county what
they really have in the construction
of a modern High school building.
The delay in giving the reception
is due to the late arrival of some of
the equipment for several of the de-
partments. Everything is now in
place and in running order and the
teaching force believes that they have
the most up-to-date building and equip
ment in the State.
The doors will be opened promptly
at $3.50 o'clock and those who attend
will be taken into the spacious audi
torium, where an informal program
will be rendered. At the conclusion
of the program, the visitors will be
shown each and every department and
the workings thereof will be thorough
ly explained by the teacher in charge.
Prof. L. S. Duke, in charge of the
manual art work, will put the ma
chimes into operation and explain
every detail concerning each device.
Every department will be shown as If
the school was in the midst of daily
work, with the exception of the pupils
being present.
After the entire building has been
gone over from top to bottom and the
modern equipment explained by ex-
perts, a delightful course of refresh
ments will be served
