A golfer was returning from the

about to start. Making a sprint for
ward, he was about to board it when
woman hailed him from a nearby
house.
Here, mister" she cried.
He hesitated moment, and the
car was gone, SO he shouldered his
heavy golf bag and made toward the
house
The woman's head had disappeared
from the window now, but he could
still hear her in the upper room call

Here, mister
After much deliberation as to
whether he should leave his loaded
bag downstairs or take it with him,
he decided on the former, and toiled
UP numerous flights of stairs.
When he reached the top of the
house the woman said:

THE COLORED VOTER

1t is not an impression favorable
to the Republican party which ap-
pears to have been made on the
minds of many of the colored voters
with respect to the Dyer bill to pre-
vent lynching. They feel that the
Republicans were not insistent
enough against the filibuster put up
by the Democrats in the Senate to
defeat the measure. The National
Association OF Colored People
through its secretary has this to say:
"Colored voters have gone a great
step toward political emancipation
from allegiance on political grounds
to any one party. The fate of the
Dyer bill, coming as q elimination of
a series of disappointment under the
present Administration, completely
rids. the Negro of the old idea that he
must now, henceforth and forever
more vote the Republican ticket
merely for historic reasons"
1t is said the negro vote defeated
on this account a representative in
Delaware, one in Wisconsin and
another in New Jersey and is cor
respondingly encouraged to make it.

there were a way by witch the COL
ored vote of the South could be di
vided between the two parties it
would be better fer that section if
not for all of the country. AS it is.
any kind of Democrat approved by
the machine is sure of winning in

which one could expect much of good.

Very little red liquor reaches

and what does come passes
through so many hands that,
when it reaches the consumers
one gallon is adulterated and
rectifed into five gallons.
Director Smith reported a

JENKINS and DARWIN
BROTHERS SPEND LARGE
sum ON IMPROVEMENTS
Pre!tiest Store Between Nash
vile and Knoxville.

Jenkins & Darwin Brothers
are just completing a thorough
romodeling of their store on the
West Side. and within two or
three weeks will be ready to dis
pense with the workmen, who
have been on the job for the
past nine weeks. The entire in
terror and the front have been
torn down and reconstructed ac-
cording to plans ann specifica-
tions drawn by one of the best
architects in the state, with the
idea uppermost in mind that
Cookeville is entitled to modern
department store facilities.
When the work is finally finished,
the institution will be one of the
prettiest and most conveniently
arranged between Nashville and
Knoxville. In fact, it will COM
pare favorably with many of
the popular department stores
In the two cities just referred to.
j. C. Darwin stated this
morning that approximately six
thousand dollars worth of new
fixtures had been received, and
that other orders were being de-
hvered each day. The entire
line of fixtures, when received
and insatlled, according to Mr..
Darwin. will represent an ex-
penditure of nine or ten thous-
and dollars A balcony has
been built, giving a two story
effect to the interior, and, the
front being two stories, it will
be readily seen that ample light
has been provided and the ap-
pointments all that could be de-
sired. The business effice pro-
per, accounting and bookkeep
ing departments, are built on
the balcony at the head of the
first fight of stars. Througout
the entire construction work it
has been the main purpose of
the managers to arrange things
for the convenience of patrons.
and to provide display spaces
sufficiently large to show off the
stocks of merchandise to the
very best advantage. In the
front large plate-glass display
windows h,ye been added, set
in copper, with marble base. and
the approach leading from the
pavement to the main entrance
will be laid in tile. Light comes
in above the display windows
