as a drawing card, and induced

 Another and Weeds Her.

Selma, Sept 26.-(Special.)-Mrs. Ma linda King secured a divorce from her husband some time ago. but failed to pay costs and secure a decree. William Taylor became enamored of her and yes terday paid the costs and took out li- cense to marry.

He was arrested and today went to thet probate office in charge of a bail if. surrendered his marriage license. took another and was married to the Marshall woman.

resented. the National Baptists, the Baptist foreign missions and the Baptist Educational association.
 A resolution was adopted to consolidate the three and elect a chairman and committee to draft plans for the future operation of the body. This will be done tomorrow.
 The reports of progress and education and missions were read and proved very gra tfying. So successful has been the efforts of men and women who are en- gagged in the work that many more will go on the same mission.
 There were a good many white people present at today's session.
 At the last convention, held in Mont gomery, a committee from each body was appointed to devise a plan. as well as ways and means, to consolidate the bodies and to place one board in charge to conduct them al efficiently as they are being worked now by three boards. It appears that there is some opposition to the anna lgamation but not enough to prevent a successful consummat tion of the plan to bring all into one. This ques- tion is the most important one to come up al this meeting. A movement to this end has been working from year to year since the younger organization came into life Most of the opposition has been with drawn.
 The officers of the mission convention are as follows: President E. c. Morris Helena. Ark; vice-presidents, one from each state; secretary, Dr. s. T. Clanton, New Orleans; treasurer, pr. E. K. Love, Savannah; corresponding secretary, Rev J. L. Dart, Charleston S. c. The eXecu- tive board is the same IS the board Of missions at Richmond.

NOT YELLOW FEVER.
Dr. Cochrane EmphaticaIIy Denies That Mo- bile Is Infested A Type of MaIara
 Fever Is Prevalent.

Montgomery, Sept. 26.-There having been rumors in Pensacola, Montgomery and other places of the prevalence of a suspicious case of fever at Mobile the authorities requested Dr. Jerome Coch- ran, state health officer, to go to that place and investigate the matter He re- turned from there tonight, and in an in terview with an Advertiser reporter, said there was not the slightest excuse for any such reports. He found considera ble sickness there, mostly of a malarial fe- yer type. These levers are the result of rainy weather followed by drouth. The disease is not of a specially severe type, and yields readily to the quinine treat ment. There have been no cases of black Vomit and nothing to suggest yellow fe- yer to an expert. The disease did not make it's appearance at a single point and then spread to adjacent houses, as yellow fever, but sprung up at the same time all over the city. The doctors of Mobile are familiar with the dread disease, and 1t would be impossible for it to exist and the authorities not know of it and give the informaion to the world This denial on the part of Dr. Cochran, who is a sworn officer of the state and an expert, should set at rest all such rumors.

IT IS A DEATH TRAP.
Mississippi's Capitol Is Occupied by Off,
 clals Under Protest.

Jackson, Miss. Sept. 26.-The condi- ton of Mississppis capital building has become serious matter. The governor and all other officials are really afraid to occupy it, and do so under protest.
 There are hundreds of people in Jack son who will not go inside, no matter who is to speak, what sort of convention Is holding or however strong the attrac- tion.
 The building was built on the side of a bluff more than fifty years ago and has settled till the rear wall is foot out of plumb. The roof is supported by im- mense new timbers put in the second story five years ago, which has afforded temporary relief There is a strong de- mand for a new capitol just now. Ev- cry newspaper in the state is urging it's necessity.
 The opinion of local and foreign archi- teets has been secured, and while most of them recommend new building, some of them say the present one can be made as good as new for $15,000.

INDUSTRIES IN THE SOUTH.
No Slackening in the General Advancement. Furnaces Prevented From Blowing
 in by Lack of Ore

Baltimore, Sept 26.-Reports to the Manufacturers Record show that the list of new enterprises projected in the south during the past week was somewhat less than for several preceding weeks, but this does not indicate any slackening in the general industrial advancement of this section. The fertilizer oombina- tion, which has been formed to include eight of the leading fertilizers manufac- turers in Virginia and North Carolina, will have capital stock of $6,500 000 It is intended by this combination to operate all of the plants which are in cluded in it, but it is hoped to reduce the cost of production very materially.
 Cotton mill enterprises include 15,- 900 spindle mill at LaGrange Ga, for which bids are being invited, and the con- Struction of a mill at Anderson s. C., to double its capacity by adding 1S,000 spin dles, the increase to be made largely out of surplus earnings, after having declared good dividends. A Wilmington mill will add 300 looms.
 Among other enterprises reported for the week were knitting mill and wood working plant in Georgia; the proposed development by western capitalists of 100000 acres of timber, coal and oil lands in Kentucky and Tennessee; 300-ton cot ton seed mill and a 600-barrel refinery and an ice plant in Louisiana; iron foun- dry, water works and $500,O00 irrigation company in Texas, and miscellaneous enterprises in other states.
 Iron interests continue very active, but a number of furnaces which would go into blast under the present high prices of iron are unable to do so on ac- count of inability to secure coke and ore on short notice. the output of mines now in operation lbeing fully absorbed by the furnaces in blast During the week one furnace at Middlesborough was blown in, and another at the same place will probably start in a few weeks, to be followed later on by the large steel works which are built in connection with these furnaces just before the Barring failure. English capitalists are negoti- ating for the purchase of the machine shop and iron works built at Middles- borough at a cost of $500,0 several years ago, and if the sale is made this plant, which has never been in operation since built, will be started up.

The Cabinet Ia Divided.

Ottawa, Ont, Sept 26.-There are sev- eral members of the cabinet who are now opposed to interfering with the act of the Manitoba legislature abolishing separate schools. although they were par ties to the pledge given the Catholics remedial legislation. While the cabinet is divided, Premier Bowel, supported by Sir Charles Tupper. 0uimo. Caron, Cos tigan and Sir Frank Smith, says that q session must be called and remedial leg islation carried if possible. Reference of the question to a royal commission to investigate has been suggested, but Sir Charles Tupper and those memebrs of the cabinet who are standing out for the rights of the Catholic minority say that such course would be cowardice. They will submit to nothing short of d measure restoring to the Catholics their separate schools Every memebr of the cabinet who is out of the city has been telegraphed by the premier to return at once to attend Fridays cabinet meeting.
