MAKES RECORD FOR
JUNE REALTY SALE
S, o. THOMAS DURING THE PAST
MONTH SOLD OVER $4,000
OF LANDS.

Although real estate was dull in
June, is for that matter nearly every
June, S. Otey Thomas sold during the
past month no less than $4,000 OF
real estate. This is the best June
record that Mr.. Thomas has ever
made, and considering the fact that
June is dull month for land trades,
he has right to consider it on the
whole the best month in his business
Despite the drouth and the warm
weather Mr. Thomas hustled right on
making number of good deals.
One of the deals just closed by
Mr. Thomas was for ]. P. Wakefield
of this city, who has acquired 436
acres Of land near Petersburg in Mar.
shall county. The land is known as
the Porter farm and Mr. Wakefield
exchanged valuable city property here
for it including block on Depot
street, valued at $4,000.
This deal is one of the largest made
this year by real estate dealer and
involved altogether about $4,000 of
consideration. Although he will give
his personal attention to the farm
Mr.. Wakefield will>continue as a resi-
dent of Columbia. Another big deal
that was put through during the past
month by Mr.. Thomas was the Hurl-
burt farm on the Hampshire pike
which was sold to Bailey Addison.
Several smaller trade were also sue
cessful piloted through by Mr.
Thomas.

LlQUOR-MAkiNG MACHINE AT THE
COURT HOUSE VISITED
BY MANY.
THE OWNERS ARE BOUND over
Both Enter Written Pleas OF Guilty
Capture Was Result of a Clever
Piece Of Detective Work by Deputy
Collector Davidson,

Algie Gilmore and Leonard Hayes,
alleged to have been the owners and
attempting to convey liquor still,
were arraigned before the commission
er on Tuesday afternoon and entered
pleas of guilty They were bound over
to the next term of the United States
Court. The bond of Hayes was fixed
at $1,000 and that of Gilmore at $3.50.
The still, copper affair, well made,
together with some of the fixtures and
pipes, were brought to Columbia and
now repose in the sheriff's office.
They were the center of much interest
and since stills have come to be quite
a rarity in this section of the state a
large number of people went to the
sheriff's office to see the sight.
The still is said to have a capacity
of about thirty gallons of liquor per
day. Some clever work was done in
this case by Deputy Collector e. l..
Davidson, ably assisted by Deputy j.
O. Blackburn, of Mt. Pleasant In
some way. to themselves only known,
they got information that the still was
being taken to Mt. Pleasant for neces.
sary repairs.
They quietly waited their time
They told the timer to do the work
and on Monday night the still was
ready The two defendants appeared
in a one-horse wagon. They loaded
the worm" and pipe fitting at the
front and then drove around to the
rear, where it was not so public to
get the still. In the meantime Deputy
Davidson jumped into the wagon. The
| arrests were soon made.
Gilmore is very young boy, only
sixteen years of age The other defen
dant is not very much older.

Failure To Get Sufficient Number or
Men Results in the Chanse-Gover-
nor and Adjutant General Said to bs
Much Disappointed.

Due to the fact that the necessary
number Of men did not volunteer with
in the time set by the adjutant ger
|eral, the Maury county company OF
the Second Tennessee Infantry now
being raised in the state has been can
celled. The company has been trans
ferred to Sewart county, where II is
stated that already 1875 men have been
enrolled in company. A platoon or
Lincoln county will also be joined to
this company.
This information was conveyed to,
Capt English by Adjutant Gen. Rogan
on Tuesday, who stated that 1t would
be impossible to wait any longer on
the Maury county contingent; that all
the time possible had been allowed
the county and that from what he
could understand the people of Malrry
county were utterly Indifferent to the
company and under all the circum-
stances the offer must be withdrawn.
Capt. English returned from Nash
Vile Tuesday evening and stated that
while of course his countys pride was
hurt and he regretted that the county
had not taken advantage of the oppor-
tunity to have contingent in the reg
iment, that he could easily understand
why the adjutant general and COVER
nor could wait no longer.
While Captain English has been Of
fered place with the regiment as one
of the battalion adjutants, he has not
accepted and has no immediate plans
for the future The men who have
been recruited for the company are OF
course released unless they want to
join another company.
The governor and adjutant general
are both said to feel very much disap-'
pointed over the failure of the COM.
pany in Maury county. They declare
that they had been assured that If the
county were given an organization It.
would be promptly filed, but that this
did not prove to be the case and that
Columbia especially took no interest
! in the matter.

TIME FOR SOBER SPEECH.

Once they prattled of licking creation
When Fourth of July came around.
You know the flamboyant grafton;
You've heard it enough, I'll be bound.
But now that we're facing a matter
Where common sense figures at par,
Well cut out the meaningless chatter
And talk about winning this war.
