ALABAMA SYNOD
Still in Session With Large and En- thusiastic Attendance-The
 Orphans Home.

MONTGOMERY, Nov. .22.-[Special. 1.-The sessions of the Alabama Presbyterian synod have been largely attended, there being forty five ministers and thirty one ruling elders present. The three presby- teries of the state were all well represented. The synod will adjourn tomorrow night, the last service being on the the subject of foreign missions. h the morning vii! be discussed the relations between the north ern and southern general assemblies.
 The reports from the different boards show their matters to be in good shape.
 Memorials to Revs. ;. H. Spencer and J H. Skinner were adopted.
 Interesting and instructive reports were read relative to the theological seminary |, convention of elders and deacons, commit tee of education, to tue ministry, Is bell college and Florence Syn odicai Female col lege and adopted.
 The most important matter coming be- fore the synod was the report of the special committee on synodical evangelization or home mission work in Alabama. The committee's plan was adopted, which em- braces the idea of concert of action by all the presbyteries, each pres bytery to control the work within it's own bounds.
 Tbe evenings service was devoted to the subject of the synodical orphans home, located at Talladega. Dr. J. M. P. Otts was especially pleasing and forceful in leading the discussion of this noble work.

FOR FAIR ELECTION. MT. Robert Warnock, the Demo-
 cratic Nominee, so EXPRESSES HIMSELF
  Satisfied With the Action of the AIdermanic Board and Ready for the Result.

After the meeting of the city council last night an AGE HERALD reporter asked MT. Warnoek what he thought of the action relative to the appointment of inspectors. He said:
 ''I am gratitied at the action of the board in the matter of selection of managers of election, and have every reason for believ- ing that the managers will give proper clerical representation. I am for whatever is legal and just that will insure fair eec- ton. No man should hold the office of mayor who cannot poll majority of votes with an honest count.''
 "What do you think of the outlook for the city democratic ticket?'
 ''I am confident of success. and want it to be an election in which an honest man may experience satisfaction and pride. Above all regardless of the issue, earnestly desire that the conduct of the election shall be such as to vindicate the democracy of this city from any and every charge of un- fairness.''
 "Democracy in Jefferson county,' said Mir. Warnock, twill be the gainer by a lair election in the city, and my hopes and aspirations shall not interfere with my de- termination to do whatever may be in my power to insure such happy result.'

CONTESTED CASES.

Twenty -four Republicans have fled with
 the Republican Congressional Campaign
 Committee notices that they will contest
 seats to which Democrats were elected on
 the face of the returns. These contests come from all sections of the country, but mostly from the South and Southwest.
 Pending the decision of these contests the Democrats -elect will hold their seats. The Governor of the State issues a certificate of election, and this will be presented to the clerk of the House on the 4th of March, 1895. The candidate for membership is sworn in on that date as a member of the Fifty-fourth Congress, and his salary be- gins from that date. Congress allows S2ooO to each contestant with which to pay the expenses of getting up the proof, etc.. go that if the Republican contestants are not seated they vii. draw 5000 from the National treasury. If the Republican is seated he will also be paid the salary from the time bis opponent was seated, but this does not deprive the Democratic member of the sal- ary he has drawn. There will be So many contests in the next Congress and such voluminous testimony that the session of Congress will be almost exhausted before all of them are decided. Mir. Turpin TO- tained his seat in the Fifty first Congress for thirteen months, and was finally un
 seated. In tho call of States Alabama comes

were hard, but the audience knew nothing of 1t aud they cared nothing. Que of these could hardly muster courage enough to try it again, but when the stage manager yelled, "Hurry up; get back at them while they're hot, ' she was out in a second.
 To one who sits in the audience 1t seems that with all the work that is done not a word is spoken, but this is a mistake, for there is more racket going on there than in any other part of the house. The boys are skipping boards together and handling property in a manner that would make one want to stop his ears. The girls sing behind the scenes and the boys dance jigs; while they are march, ing upon the stage they are con- tinually talking to each other, while the audience is none the wiser. Stalacta, with her army of soldiers gives them orders on the stage without the audience knowing it. Her commands are distinctly heard by tbe girls, but by no one else.* When the cur tain goes down on the last act there is a rush and hurry skurry to get property and baggage prepared for the next place. Everybody is in a hurry and everybody seems delighted when the nights work is done.
 It's hard, it's amusing, but such is everyday life upon the stage.

ANOTHER OUTBREAK

WIPED IN THE BUD IN HAWAII--CoNDI-
 TIoN IN SAMOA.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 22.--The steamer Mariposa, which arrived from Honolulu today, brought news otan attempt to over throw the government by Claud H. Wet more, a newspaper man, who formerly represented New York and Chicago news papers there. Wetmore had several hun dred royalists connected with him in the plot, which was to have been sprung the day after the last steamer from Honolulu the Australia, had sailed. On the morning of the steamers departure Wetmore was summoned to Attorney General Smith s office and told that the government was in possession of full details of his scheme, and he was given the alternative of departing on the Australia or being thrown into prison for treason. He took the former course.
 The Mariposa also brings news from Samoa of November 7 Peace still reigns in Samoa, although it is peace which would be better described as armed neu- trality. No native taxes are forthcoming, and the governments current expenses ara met by the proportion of custom revenues which the great powers have decided the government is enLitled to. Naturally the white residents, who solely contribute to. wards this branch of revenue, are much disgruntled, and the wonder is how can they DC laW-aoiulng Wueu no steps are taken to enforce native taxation.
 The most important event of the month has been the visit of the land commissioners to the district of Falalli, where they were permitted to establish themselves without moestation, and during their stay had no cause of com plaint against the rebels re- siding there. On their return to Apla they expressed themselves as delighted with the work accomplished. The commission CTS are now preparing for similar trip to Luflu6, the capital town of Auta, and their work being accom- plished they will have completed their official inquiry into the land claims in Samoa.
 The British warship Curacoa and the German man. of-war BuZzard are still in Apia harbor. The former has been ex- pecting her release for more than three months, but no definite information of it has been received up to the present.

THINGS DRAMATIC.

'tThe Black Crook'' company closed their engagement at O. Brien's last night, and won the plaudits of all who saw the performance. The matinee was the largest of the season, and ladies largely predomi- mated. So great was the enthusiasm that it was necessary at times to decline the re- calls after they had been responded to once, twice and even three times.
 Miss Henshaw was in her best spirits and delighted all.
 Miss NJ Il el Montgomery as Statacta, who failed to appear on the first night, was the admiration of all. A decidedly handsome woman, with a magnificent form and stage presence, she was eminently fitted for the character, and her leadership of the several Amazonian marches evoked deserved ap- plause.
 Mile. Eliza sorocco, one of the premiers, who also failed to appear the first night, was well received.
 The speciality artists and the other lead- ing characters were all that could be de- sired, and the audience did not fail to show their appreciation.
