The tobacco receiving house is
rapidly, and the contractor
thinks that he will have it ready for
the growers by the specified time, 18th
of November. There are now quite a
number of hands at work on the build
ing, and others will be employed as
soon as they can be worked to an ad-
vantage. The contractor wants every
lick to count. 1t will be an immense
building, and persons who have not
been out to the grounds, have but lit
tie idea about its dimensions. A
building that viii cover an acre Of
ground IS some building.

Death Of a Fine Citizen.

A message announcing the death of
Mr.. 81. P. Barger, who was addressed
as Porter Barger, reached Columbia
from Louisville last Thursday morn
ing The announcement was shock
to his many Columbia friends and the
whole southern portion of Adair coun-
ty. He went to Louisville three
weeks ago for an operation which was
performed in st, Anthony Hospital,
and from the time he came from un-
der the knife. apparently he was re.
covering. In fact, Mr.. II B. Garnett,
who went down to the State Fair,
called to see him and Mr.. Barger told
him he expected to be able to come
home in a few days. Mr.. GarnetU
left him believing that he would soon
be well. The operation was success,
and when death struck him he was
sitting in chair in his room. He
had weak heart and inaction of that
organ caused his death. His remains
reached Columbia Friday and from
here were conveyed to Joppa where
he resided, and later were inferred in
Columhia CerneterV
He was about 65 years old and was a
very industrious man froru youth up,
and he could name as many friends in
this county as any other one man.
His parents died when he was but a
small boy. Mr. Herschel Willis gave
him home where he lived as one of
the family until he married.
He was reliable, his word being as
good as hIS bond, and was especially
kind 10 his wife and children, He be-
cal..s a successful farmer, and no
mt .nber Of his family had to call upon
hiu twice for any thing they desired.
La making them happy he was happy
himself When he came TO Columbia
he met you with a smile, and the
warm grip of his hand told you that
he was glad to see you.
He left, besides his wife, five chill
dren, three daughters aud two sons
Two of his daughters are married and
are living IN the same neighborhood,
the single one is teaching at Zion
schoolhouse. His two sons are excel
lent business men. One is on the At
Iantic Coast and the other on the Pa
cific Coast, Eldridge reaching here in
time for the funeral. The deceased
was deVout member of ths Zion
Baptist Church, and was always in
his pew. He was also a liberal giVeI
for church purposes.

u. S. Supreme Court to Hear
Craig Contempt Case Tomorrow

The question as to what constitutes
contempt of court is to be put UP to the
United States Supreme Court for de-
cision tomorrow by Edmund L. Moo
ney, counsel for Charles T.. Craig,
Comptroller of New York City. Mr..
Mooney will file a petition for writ
of certiorari to review the ruling Of
the Circuit Court Of Appeals for the
I'd District, yacating writ of habeas
corpus in the contempt proceedings
growing out Of the Comptrollers criti-
cism Of Judge Mayors policy in con-
nection with the traction receivership
three years ago.
If the Supreme Court denies the pc
titioii, Comptroller Craig will have to
serve out the sixty days sentence in
the Essex, j., County Jail
which was imposed upon him by Fed
srai Judge Julius M. Mayer. This ap-
peal to the highest court in the land
Esis the last stepto which Mr.. Craig's
counsel can res0rt to keep the Comp
troller ant Of prison. The taking into
physical custody Of Mr. Craig's person
becomes automatic If this latest legal
ef ort fails. 3gs
SKI III will be recalled that when Judge
Mayer appointed receivers for the
Brcoklyns Rapid Transit Company and
other lines the Cooperation Counsel
asked that ce-receivays acceptable To

fore Mustapha Kemal formally replies
to the Allied note. On the other hand,
should the Turks see fit to reject the

This is the information that comes to
