LU FSTATE : # 3 i _‘ : ke Y { Receivers Appointed For the Estate of Capt. Chuck Anderson On Tuesday evening Judge Morris, acting on the petition of creditors, appointed temporary receivers for the estate of Capt. Chuck Andex son. = _ Bolan G. Brumby and Gus Cog gins were named as the temporary re ceivers, and a hearing for permanent receivership will be heard before Judge Morris on Feby. 6th, at Mari etta. 1 The petition for receiver was sign ed by Gus Coggins, Mrs. A. 8. Clay, T. W. Read, Abercrombie & Meeks, R. W. Northeutt, Mrs. Laura A. May, A. P. Butt, E. G. Gilbert, Indian Re fining Co., Anderson Bros. Co., Con nor, Camp, & McCleskey, A. C. Fraz jer Grain Co., J. D.’ Anderson, Nor ton Hardware Co., Standard Oil Ce., W. A. Florence, Black Builders Sup ply Co., Seaboard Coal Co., and Wel don National Bank, all alleging M they were creditors of “the estate. . Petitioners also alleged that the estate was worth about $40,000.00 and was insolvent; and was getting more so on account of the expense attached to keeping the same, and the large sum of accumulating in terest of more than $300.00 per month. ¢ They also alleged that an t?od had been entered from court ? dinary appointing permanent ad~ ministrator, which would. probably P& litigated in all the courts, and pre vent the estate being wound up for a long time to come. Further allegaiion ‘was made that there was a contest between the H. B. Clay family and the Anderson family, as to who are- the lawful heirs of the deceased, which would involve long litigation. Mrs. Coggins claimed to be the largest creditor of the estate. The petitioners were represented by at torneys Fred Morris and D. W. Blair. On account of the size of the es tate and the number of creditors in volved, much interest has been mani fested in the disposition of the es tate.

Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer, creatures of the wholesome humor of that favorite of American authors, Mark Twain, will live in the memory of men until their days are done. Years cannot obliterate the recollection of the real “kid” stories of these youngsters read long, long ago. . But Huck and Tom are destined to have rivals for the affections of those who like stories of real, Ameriecan boys. Penrod Schofleld, Sam Williams and the rest of their “gang,” kids of a later day are intro duced to us by Booth Tarkington. It is not nec¢essary to tell you of the class of Tarkington as an author, nor after read ing any of Penrod stories to tell you that as a boy he was a regular, full-blooded, full of-the-dickens youngster. Omne must have lived the things he writes of to tell them as he does. ' If you read one of these stories, you will read them all, and ask for more. One of these stories is printed in this issue.
