Iment will require every confectioner
to collect from his customer and pay
in cash, 10 per cent of the purchase
price as revenue. The confectioners
will have to pay this in cash and they
feel certain that their patrons will not
ask them to take this money out of
their pockets and pay it to the govern
ment and charge it to the customer.
That would be loaning the customer
the money to pay the revenue on his
purchase and the proprietors of Mos
COW stores feel that they cannot af-
ford to do this. Therefore they will
keep no books and make no charges
after May J.. Everything sold must be
paid for in cash. The question of
prices to be charged under the new
revenue law has not been settled yet
The revenue will be one cent on eve

METH0DISTS PLANNING
FOR CENTENARY FUND
FIRST CHURCH HERE EXPECTED
TO GO OVER THE TOP AT
AN EARLY DATE.

Methodists of the First Church are
planning to "go over the top" in the
Centenary Offering without any de.
lay. At meeting of the board OF
stewards of the church this week the
subject was discussed at length and
members expressed full confidence
that not only would the church's full
quota be taken care of, but that in ad
dition a big versubscription would
be made.
The allotment OF the First Church
is $4,000 of the $35,O00,OOO fund, to
be paid within five years, in equal
payments each year. Already the
First Church has more than $4,000 OF
the amount necessary pledged and
several members have indicated sums
that they expect to subscribe, which
If counted, would very materially in.
crease this amount. 1t is planned to
have the entire amount cared for at
AM early date.

long as they could stand it. and then
they slipped up and began TO peep

plates Big System of Water Power

gest In the South.

Mt. Pleasant is now being lighted
and industrial plants in that city op.
Grated by electric current from Duck
river. The current has been turned
on from the big hydraulic plant two
miles northwest of Columbia. The
steam power plant OF the Mt. Pleasant
Electric Light C Power Co. has been
shut down and all its service is now
being furnished by the Southern Cit
les Power Co., owner of the Mt. Pleas
ant plant and the hydraulic plant at
the old Ashton Mill site.
In addition to, furnishing light and
power current to the city of Mt Pleas
ant the water power plant will make
connections on farms and at resi-
dences along the route of its trans
mission lines. This feature of the SER
vice alone will be one of the most
beneficial results of the development
of the water power.
M. R. Stern, manager of the plant,
stated this morning that the current
was turned ON without strain on the
capacity of the big turbines and that
every detail Of the machinery and
transmission is working perfectly.
He said that the plant has sufficient
capacity to meet all demands contem-
plated.
Construction of the plant at Ash.
TONS mill site was completed several
weeks ago but the beginning of it's
operation was delayed by litigation
with the Citizens Telephone Co. re.
garding right-of-way. This matter has
been adjusted and the power line is
now being operated without a hitch
anywhere. The line crosses the river
and goes through Columbia via Glade
street striking the BigbyviIle pike
and going that route for some distance
before crossing to the Mt. Pleasant
pike.
The Southern Cities Power Co., it is
understood, has under consideration
the construction of number of wa
ter power plants on Duck river, the
current from which will be united into
one big transmission line. When all
of these plants have been construct,
ed the united power from them will
form one of the biggest water power
developments in the South.

Somewhere in Tennessee there is
soldier of the nation clad in khaki,
with two gold service chevrons on his
left arm, indicating a years duty
overseas, who after brief but prof
liable stay in the Dimple is being
sought by various minions of the law,
because of certain lack of conven-
tionalities in the manner of his leave
taking. Mine Host Dedman of the
Bethel House, is suffering from an
unpaid hotel bill of SO and Manager
Thomas l.. Cunningham of the Maury
Undertaking Company is short in his
cash in safe Of 500 and will have to
make good a check for $25 which he
endorsed for the alleged hero of many
hard fought engagement in France.
A few days ago young soldier
about five feet, six inches high and
weighing 1876 pounds arrived in CO.
lumbia and registered as II. A. Miles,
at the Hotel Bethel. The following
day he called upon Mr.. Cunningham
and stated that he was an undertaken
and embalmer but was temporarily
sojourning in Columbia in order to un-
dergo treatment by DR.. Wilkes from
the effects of gas wounds received in
battle. He wanted work to do during
his enforced stay in the city. Mr..
Cunningham was sympathetic and be-
sides he found that he could use the
services of an expert embalmer for
a while and SO he gave the soldier a
job.
The young man entered upon his du-
ties and made preparations for quite
stay here. Assisted by Mr.. Cunning
ham he arranged for board in pri-
vate home, secured room at another
place and then in order that he might
square his account with Mayor DIED.
man secured Mr.. Cunningham en-
dorsement to check for $25 on a
Chattanooga bank. After obtaining
the money, however, Soldier Miles
overlooked the matter OF the hotel
bill and late Thursday afternoon de-
parted from the hotel and the city.
While the lynx eyed clerk of the hotel
was looking the other way Mr.. Miles
took himself and his baggage hence.
Growing suspicious over the fail
ure of the soldier to show up last night
Manager Cunningham instituted an in
vestigation. His worst fears were con-
firmed. The former employee was no.
where to be found and not only that
but two ten dollar bills which he had
placed in his safe late yesterday aft
ernoon were likewise missing. Mr.
Cunningham consoles himself, how
ever, with the knowledge that
he had juts deposited over
5000 in bank where it reposes much
more safely than the $40 left in the
safe.
Officers here have been notified and
are in communication with officers at
Chattanooga and other points in an
endeayor to locate Soldier Miles.
