IN CASE STARTED IN
COURT OF RECORD

One case was placed on trial in
the court of record yesterday, but be-
fore it had proceeded very far, a
non-suit was taken, and it Is said
the contention will be called up at a
later date. The case is that of Will
liam Strong against the Louisville &
Nashville railroad company, and
damages to the amount of $500 are
sought.
The case had its origin, it was
stated, at the passenger depot of the
L. & N. at this point. Strong, the
plaintiff maintains that he suffered
much inconvenience when he was pre-
vented from catching train of the
defendant company by not being al
lowed through the gates at the depot
after he had purchased a ticket for
Milton, and after he had in regular
order displayed his ticket to the gate
tender. He claims that, not being
allowed through the gate when he
was duly authorized to proceed, caus-
ed him to miss train and, his pres
ence being mandatory in Milton
caused him to have to walk the whole
distance of nearly twenty miles.
He claims that the gate keeper had
some dispute with another passenger
and that said dispute resulted in the
plaintiff being left on the platform,
after. the train departed. He dis.
played the ticket as evidence in the
case.

THREE NOMINATED
FOR TAX DISTRICT
SCHOOL TRUSTEES

In view of the approaching special
tax district election, which occurs on
May 8, The Journal has been request
ed to state that the names of Messrs.
L. E. Mobiles, w. A. Smith and r.
Pope Reese have been suggested as
candidates for the trustees.
All three men are capable and
known to be public spirited citizens
who have the welfare of the city and
the schools at heart.
Three school trustees will be elect
ed on May 8, to serve for two years.
These trustees will have the super
vision of all schools within the dis
trict At this time it is necessary to
nominate for trustees men who have
not only manifested keen interest in
the public schools, but also men in
whom the public may repose the
greatest confidence.
Messrs. Mobiles, Reese and Smith
possess all these qualifications neces-
airy for efficient service.
Besides being nominated for their
peculiar fitness for the responsible
ties of the work, the three citizens
live in three different sections of the
proposed school district and therefore
their nominations are thoroughly rep
resentative
The names of the three gentlemen
referred to are commended by large
number of citizens who will vote in
the coming election as men who would
give good service, and as men whose
merits all voters should consider. II
is to be hoped that they will realize
the service they are capable of rem,
dering, and allow their names to &c
| before the people.

VESSEL TO UNDERGO
EXTENSIVE REPAIRS

Finishing up discharging her cargo
of mahogany logs, the American
steamer VIM. H. Murphy, which ar
rived Sunday, steamed around to the
east side of Tarragona wharf and
has occupied the north berth. At
that point extensive repairs will be
made and the Murphy will probably
remain in the present berth a month
or more.
The steamer reached here from
Cape Gracias Sunday afternoon, and
was locked at the east side of Cen
trail wharf. There a cargo of several
hundred mahogany logs from Mica
raugua were discharged. Repair work
has been contemplated for some time,
it was said, and Captain johnson de-
cided that no time is better than the
present for such. Capital Boghich,
from the harbormaster's office, was
in charge of the Murphy when she
steamed into the repair berth.

MALE QUARTET PLEASES.
Weatherwax Brothers in Enjoyable
Entertainment on Community Course

Weatherwax Brothers in Enjoyable
Entertainment on Community Course
Another audience of large proper
tons greeted the fourth number on the
community entertainment course at
the Methodist church Monday night,
when the Weatherwax Brothers, enter
tanners, appeared in a pleasing enter
tainment comprising vocal and trum-
pet quartets and readings.
The offerings of the quartet made up
program arranged with a view OF
appealing to popular taste. The
voices of the four brotherS-Wiliam
w, first tenor; Asa A., second tenor;
Lester F.. barytone: and L. Tom, basso
blended in perfect harmony, and
were shown off to especial advantage
in Neyin's THE Rosary" by far the
best number of the evening. No at
tempt at individual work was made,
altho the audience no doubt would
have been pleased to have heard the
youngest of the brothers, Tom. display
his tuneful bass voice in solo work.
If individuality could be selected from
the mingled voices of the quartet,
honors would have been voted the
bass without hesitation. Another num-
Der that was well received was the
Iowa song, The Little Brown Church
in the Vale" made famous a few years
ago by it's adaptation to the little
church at Bradford, Franklin county,
which DR. Pitts, the composer, had in
mind when he wrote the words of the
: song.
Among the trumpet numbers the
NEST pleasing were "Miserere,' from
Verdfs III Trovatore"; the quartet
from Faust" and patriotic fantasia,
in which the stars and stripes were
displayed and the audience arose dur
ing the number.
Readings by Lester and William
Weatherwax were interspersed during
the program. Very cleverly worked
out was Testers rendition Of That
Old Sweetheart Of Mine" by Riley,
while the other brothers played softly
from an ante-room above SILVER
Threads Among the Cold and then
sang the words as a finale as they re-
appeared upon the stage. William, the
oldest of the brothers, gave a few
character readings. He initiated a
gawky country lad giving an Essay
on Grass attributed by some to the
pen of Nixon Waterman, and consid-
cred by others as anonymous, and also
recited an old mans story of fight
Both were well received.
Interesting to the members of the
quartet was the fact that it was in
this city, seven years ago, that they
had in their audience Keith Vawter,
of the Redpath-Vawter chautauqua
system. and were engaged by the or
ganization as talent. The Weather
wax brothers have been with the or
gan;zation ever since.

WOULD PROTEST UPON
LOCATION IN ISLANDS
OF NEW LEPR0SARlUM

Sundays Associated Press des-
patches told of the passage by Con-
gress of bill to establish leprosa-
rum for the caIe of mainland lepers.
As in the past there has been talk of
locating such an institution in these
islands, probably on Molokai, and plac-
ing by inference a, stigma upon the
name of the islands, the matter is of
especial interest to the territory as to
whether the bill provides for Ioca-
ton.
Raymond c. Brown, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, was seen by
the Star-Bulletin this morning Asked
if he knew the text of the bill he re-
piled that he had not seen the mea-
sure and did not know whether the
provisions included the location of.
the institution.
Brown further said that there had
as yet been no protest against the
possible location in this territory in
connection with the bill that had
passed but if necessary to prevent
such location the steps would speed
lily be taken.
