Found Dead
In His Cabin

\ man named J. Miller. was found
dead yesterday morning about nine
o'clock in mis- cabin, in the vicinity OF
the Copper Queen barn on Naco road.
A cOroner's jury was empannelled and
went down TO the cabin and the bOsy
was found in a sitting position where
he had fallen between stove and
cupboard He was in a filthy cOndi-
ton and the odOr arising from the
small room was offensive and the Of
ficers and the jury could not stay in
the room but a moment at a time. IL
was learned that he and man named
Roswell who has a couple of rooms in
a house adjoining had been celebrat-
ing for the past week and were in
drunken condition most of the time.
They were seen together drinking on
Wednesday night and were in the
rooms of Roswell and their carousing
disturbed the neighbOrs. II is evident
that Miller went to his cabin and died
sometime during the night. He was
a man of about sixty-five years old,
and one OF mis- eyes had been out for
sometime. There was no marks of
violence on the body except a black
eye which he evidently obtained when
he fell from the bed and hit the
stove
Roswell was not at home when the
officers went down there but he was
later found on the streets and Was in
an intoxicated condition. He was too
drunk to get any information out OF
regarding Miller. and was locked up
by the officers so that he would be
sober this morning at te nO'clOck so az
To be used as "a witness. He stated
that Miller had been drinking denatur-
ed alcohol for the past week and that
he had tried TO get him to quit and
buy good whiskey like he did.
The cOrOner's jury will convene this
morning at Judge Highs court al ten
o'clock to investigate the cause Of his
death. The body was taken in charge
by the Hennessy Undertaking cOmpa-
ny and was buried yesterday after
noon. No papers of any kind were
found in the cabin to lead to the iden-
tity OF the man or whether or not he
had any relatives

What do you think, reader has there
been too much of war in this column lately?
Yes? But what's the use of talking about
anything but the war? 1t is the all-absorb-
ing, overpowering subject just now with the
allied forces strained to the uttermost to
hold their own The peak of the load is
upon the shoulders of our fighting men.
All other matters are pale and weak and
dim compared to this one red CLEAN IN

been arrested for celebrating the kaser's
gains in France In Wisconsin traitors and
Germans almost succeeded in nominating
a traitor for the u. S. senate In Indiana
a woman was tarred and feathered and rid
den on a rail for starting an open German
propaganda. German success in France
means perking up of German sympathi-
zers in this country. Their lips are mute or
hypocritical only by compulsion; reverse
for the allies and they, are ready to break
forth with their true sentiments. Now is
the time to talk war and think war and act

Keep alert Be resolute. Stand to your
guns. Be aggressive also. Speak and fear
not; smite and fear not

ABERDEEN, MISS.

Another hero of the Confederacy
and a man above reproach among his
fellowmen was called to the great
ASSEMBLY above Sunday afternoon a
few minutes after two o'clock when
Robert H. Moore, former well known
citizen of Maury county, passed away
at his home at Aberdeen, Miss. He
was "A years and months of age
when he died and had spent all but
three years of his life in Maury coun-
ty, with the exception of the time that
he served in the Confederate army as
a member of Company E, Eleventh
Tennessee regiment, part of which
time he was under the invincible For
rest. He was member of the Cum
berland Presbyterian church from his
boyhood.
The deceased will be remembered
in Maury county as a man of exemp.
llary habits and the finest moral char
acter. 1t has been said that he had
no enemies that were known to the
members Of his family and through.
out the Southern portion of the coun-
ty where he resided he was beloved
by all who knew him.
The remains reached Columbia this
morning at $40 and were carried to
the establishment of Cakes & Mich

PICKENS MULE WAS
MAURY COUNTY PRODUCT
PAID $500 FOR ANIMAL AND SOLD
HER FOR $500 SATURDAY.

Zedrick Pickens, of Bell Buckle, is
the bull to the mule market. Pickens
knows good one when he sees it.
Last week he bought red sorrel
mare mule from a man in Hickman
county for which he paid $500. He
sold the same mule Saturday to a
friend of his at Cornersville for 5000.
He was in Columbia bright and
early this morning and while standing
on West Seventh street he saw a
toppy pair Of black mare mules come
by and before the owner knew what
was happening he had sold the mules
to Mr.. Pickens for $1,000 cold cash.
The interesting history of the mule
sold by Pickens Saturday to the Corn
ersviile man. is that that mule was
produced in Maury county. Hays &
Wright bought the mule as wean-
ling and sold her as a two year old

NEW DEPARTMENT FOR
ANDERSON BROS. FOSTER
JACK TUCkER4AT THE HEAD OF
THE WAR SAVING STAMPS
BIG BOOSTER.

Anderson Bros. & Foster have add.
ed a new department to their already
large store. This department is the
War Savings Stamp department and
is in charge of Jack Tucker, the gen,
ial assistant in the office and assist.
ant ad writer for the firm.
Tuck never let's customer come
to the counter for any purpose that
he does not attempt to sell war
stamp. He even attempted to sell a
stamp to one of the agents for the
war saving stamps. There is nothing
like pushing your business, and Tuck
never fails to push.
This feature ,of the store, is, of
course, gratis, but the firm is trying
to do its bit in selling these stamps.
Let every one who has obligated
themselves to sell these stamps do
likewise. and Maury county will soon
sell her quota. They already have a
large club in the store and it is the
purpose of Tuck to get every clerk
in the store interested in these war
stamps.

ALBERT WILLIAMS, DIRECTOR OF
ORGANIZATION TO MOBILIZE

NASHVILLE, Mar. Moved by an
acute labor shortage in Tennessee due
not only to the selective draft but by
the enormous demand for labor
caused by the construction of the
powder plant at Hadley's Bend and
nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals, the U.
S. Department of Labor is bending
every energy to supply the farmers
of the state with men necessary to
produce the seasons crops.
As a first measure the utilization of
all men under draft age is planned
and in this connection the U. S. Boys
Working Reserve was Thursday put
in operation. State High School In
spector Albert Williams has been ap-
pointed Federal State Director and
Thursday began his duties by COM
municating with all county chairmen
regarding the labor supply in the sew
eral counties. The county chairmen
have been asked to nominate a county
director for the purpose of enrolling
volunteers for the reserve.
1t is expected that a majority of
the young men enlisting will be placed
on farms but provision is also made
for those who prefer industrial work
and who through any particular quail.
ification are suited for the work.
Every ablebodied boy over sixteen
and under military age is called upon
to enroll. While the work will be
carried on through the schools it ap.
plies with equal force to those who
are are employed in nonessential oc-
cupation.
The volunteers will be placed as
close as possible to their point of en-.
rollment and wages will be arranged
according to fair and prevailing
scale in the locality to which the
worker is sent. Those who desire to
go to a particular kind of farm will
have their wishes respected or as far
as possible in making the assign
ments.

Possibilities OF Cottage Cheese

Cottage cheese as a commercial

In building up a trade in cottage
