st. Clair Springs, Aug. 12.-(Spe cial)-
Another of a delightful series of dances
was given at the hotel last night. AS
there are about 200 visitors at the springs,
social functions are easily and frequently
arranged. An excellent string band, or
dered for the occasion, furnished music
for the dancers, and late into the night
their merriment continued. This dance
doubtless eclipsed any previous event Of
the season in point of enjoyment.
The evenings pleasure opened with q
beautiful german, lead by Mr.. W. w.
Garden, and closed with the mystic waltz.
Those in attendance who participated
in the dance were:
Misses Ella Coleman Of Florence. Evie
Mckee of Birmingham; Katie, Oline and
Alphonse Hurtel of Mobile, Natalie and
Bessie WEIGH of Selma, Corinne and Lily
Norimore; Cornelia, Maggie and Seppie
Goodwin of this place, Annie Bradford

Quoted Down.

Greenville, Aug. 12.-(Special.)- Sinee
the official count on Saturday last poll
tics have very much quoted here. 1t is
rumored that contests will be made by
several defeated candidates for county
offices. II Is claimed that the managers
were not sworn at two boxes. While this
county was lost to the state ticket, the
democrats here have nothing to reproach
themselves for, having reduced the ma
jorty 700 votes since the last election,
and this gain has been made from the
honest white voters of the county. 1t is
not known yet whether the leaders of the
opposition will come out for Bryan or not
We have heard it reported that some of
them were already expressing fears as to
the results of free coinage and claiming
Ito be for protection.
