A oUaRYl

A gentleman asked us question
yesterday, which we thought
we answered right when we
said yes, but when he referred
us to the digest" we are not so
certain, and now ask some of our
learned lawyers the same question,
with a hope that some of them will
send in an answer
The question: "Is a marriage
a legal one performedby a mayor
Of a city Of the second class2'
We find on this subject in Sandel
and Hills Digest, Sec, 4915, defn-
ing who can or who shall perform
the marriage ceremonies in Arkan-
sas, 1t says; "The Governor OF
the State for the time being
BY any ofthe judges of the courts
of record within the State,
by any justice of the peace of the
county where the marriage is sol
emnized,
BY any regularly ordained minis
ter or priest Of any religious sect or
denomination.
1t will be seen that mayors or eX-
oficio Justices of the Peace are not
mentioned, and it must be implied
that the mayor has this authority
if authority he has. We hold our
breath for reply,

Too Much Rain for the Crops-Social and

Uniontown, July 2.-(Special Corre- spondence)-The frequent and heavy rains for the past ten days have thrown planters very much behind in their work Cotton is growing too rapidly and not fruiting we'll Corn is firing and the pros pect Is not so fiattering as it was some weeks ago.

The Misses Gwathney are fine types of the Virginia girl and their visit to Uniontown will doubtless be very pleasant.

A Beverage for Wheelmen.

Next to being lost at sea there is noth- ing that brings on the bangs of thirst quicker than bicycle riding. The hot sun and the constant inhalation of dust quickly parches the throat and makes the biker long for the next stop for re- treatments. The wise rider avoids ice water, well knowing its danger Alco- holic beverages are likewise tabooed be- cause of their heating propensities. and there is little satisfaction in wishy- washy stuff sold under the broad classi- fication of "soft drinks" A well known wheelman, in speaking of this said:
 What to drink is no easy problem to a. man on long, hot run. The only drink know really fit for a bicycle rider is Hires Rootbeer, carbonated. There are but few places now at which it can not be had, and I tell you it braces one right up, seems to go right down to the bottom of your pedal workers. It is cooking and refreshing quickly lowering your temperature and fully satisfying your thirst. tell you there's nothing like it, and I've sworn off all other drinks when on the road" Hires Rootbeer, carbonated, Is made from the famous Hires Rootbeer extract by the same formula, without adulteration of any kind. Besides being delicious it possesses many medicinal qualities, making it as popular with wheelmen and pedestrians as the good homemade Hires Rootbeer is with the folks at home

Answer to "Alumnus."

To the Age-Herald:
 In your issue of this day appears a card from "Alumnus' in regard to the college a Auburn, in which re says ta.at the expenses of student for ScholaS- tic year at that institution are $1S0. Be- low his card appears the advertisement of the Normal college at Florence, which says that S100 will defray years ex7 penses at that institution Auburn had about 250 students and the Florence Nor nal 344 the past year.
 Auburn has a firSt-claSS faculty, li- brary, museum and laboratory, and its graduates take high stand. It must be that the difference in the expenses of attending the two schools has some thing to do with the attendance. One very bright young man from this city took two honors at Auburn this year, and kept an accurate account of his expenses, as he paid his own way, and the amount was $225. l have before me an itemiZed account, which seems very reasonable, of the expenses of an other, and the amount is only little under $500.
 Auburn is the only school for whites in the state which gives a liberal education and at the same time trains young men for the higher positions in the industrial callngs Owing to the expense. the masses cannot avail themselves of the free tuition, and the trustees of the col
 
 make the college more accessible to the masses by taking steps to reduce the cost of board. For this they are enti- tied to the gratitude of the people, If by reason of the reduced cost twenty or fifty young men of the state can fit them selves for assuming the higher positions in mines, furnaces machine shops and on the railroads at good salaries, instead of handling the pick and shovel at the lowest wages, an incalculable amount of good will have been achieved.
 Auburn has an equipment fully suffi- cient to educate 300 young men instead of 250, and the trustees are endeavoring to make the college accessible to the poorer young men, and their efforts to this end have been made at the earnest request of citizens of the state who are desirous of seeing the college exercise a greater influence.
 The writer never had a collegiate edu- cation, but does send his only child to Au- burn because he believes he will there get excellent training among young men with whom he has to cast his future lot in life. and will ever have pride in his state and his alma mater.

AN IMPORTANT DEAL.
A Rumor, Which, If Verified, Will Mean a Great
 Deal,

II was reliably reported on the streets yesterday that MT. E. N. Cullom had closed a deal for all the property of the Eylton Land company on Tenth, Elev- enth and Twelfth avenue, south, lying west of Fifteenth street There is said to be over 5000 front feet in this purchase, and the price paid was nearly $45,000.
 MT. Cullom was absent from the city and the details of his plans could not be learned and the officers of the Elyton Land company were reticent on the sub ject, but there is no doubt but that the property will be immediately developed This property adjoins that on which MT Cullom has been recently engaged in de- velopng, and is one of the most at- tractiVe districts in the city.
