the watering troughs here in the midst of summer after letting 1t run all the winter, and now, to cap the climax, they issue an order or suggestion that the poor draymen and the animals will not be molested if they stand in the middle of certain designated streets, in the hot, broiling sun. AS a matter of fact, 1t is as much an obstruction to stand in the middle of the street as on the side of thd streets. If the ordinance be reasonably constructed neither is an obstruction, considering the width of our streets. While the authorities are so solicitous to keep Instructions from the streeets they might give attention to a freight car which is standing good part of the time on Nineteenth street, near the Florence hotel. There Is absolutely no legal au- thority for moving this freight car through the streets of this city, the dum- mics are expressly limited to hauling passengers.
 ''T hope the authorities, in the interest of humanity and justice, will reconsider their action and permit these peop-e to carry on their lawful business, as they had every reason to expect they would be allowed to do when they took out their license"
 Yesterday afternoon Chief Mcdonald rearrested Grimes on a similar charge and his case will come up for trial this morning.

 THAT CLAUSE
Out of Which the Picnic Complication Arose, Payment of Check topped-What
 Mr. McGregor Says.

Much comment has been made over the trouble between the committee of St. Pauls Total Abstinence and the Ala bama Great Southern railroad officials as to the overplus required of the former before the excursion train was allowed to leave TuSkaloosa Tuesday night. So much has been said on the streets as to the demand of the company and claims of the committee that the clause of the contract upon which the question hinges is reproduced. Readers of the Age-Her- aid can draw their own conclusions. 1t is as follows:
 This contract is made on the basis of sixty passengers to each coach. Where the number of passengers carried should be more than twenty-five in excess of the regular capacity of the cars such excess shall be paid for at $1 per capita"
 The president of the society gave a check to the Tuscaloosa agent for the amount claimed, s241, but yesterday morning notified the bank on which it was drawn not to pay same pending further examination into the matter.
 Mir McGregor who represented the party of the first part, stated in the pres ence of reliable parties that the contract was intended to allow the society eighty five people to the car, and only excess of that amount was liable for the per cap ita. The result is awaited by those in- terested with anxiety.

His face is alters in puck cred frown, An he thinks hisself the poores mos onlucky cuss in town. He keers nothin for theayter, and the circus has no charm For this miserable critter. and the fire bells alarm Kan't rouse him up outten his woe. No more to church he goes He's gittin irrolijus sence the corns came on his toes. He hates each sign O happiness, and if he had his way He'd hang the girl acrost the street what's singin all the day What rights she got to be so gay when he's so full O painY He bets if he got hold O her she'd never sing again. To heef O balls and parties causes him and extra pang. What keers he now for dancin and the fidde's horrd twang? He finds no sent in vi'lets and no b'uty in the rose There's notnin pretty to the man with corns upon his toes. To him lfe's not worth Twin; to him the heay. en's blue Has given place to mournin black; the tree tops summer hue Is yaller, dull and gloomylike: to him the song birds strain Sounds like the scratchin of nail acrost the window pane; To him the suns onwelcome, and the laR of girls and boys He calls a cussed nuisance, and he tells 'em hush their noise; He hates his wife and children in his heart DO gladness grows He's what they call pessimist sence corns came on his toes.

SAID TO SETTLE IT.
A Section of the Code Bearing on the Question
 of Seniority

A Section of the Code Bearing on the Question
 of Seniority.
 Montgomery, June 5.-(Special.)- Apropos of the question now being agi- tated as to who is the senior colonel of Alabama state troops. an ex-military man of high standing today referred the Age-Herald man to section 173 of the code of Alabama, which reads as fol- lows:
 "173. Insignia of rank-The insignia of rank of officers shall be the same as that of officers of corresponding rank in the United States army.
 whenever an officer is elected or ap- pointed as his own successor he ranks from the date of his original commission, which shall be extended by indorsement of the adjutant-general"
 This section of the code bears directly on the present question of who Is the senior colonel of the troops and entitled to the rank of brigadier-general, and be- yond doubt settles 1t.
