UP TO REQUIREMENTS.
The Torpedo Boat Dupont Will Go Faster Than
 the Contract Demands.

Newport, R. T., Aug. 1.-The torpedo boat Dupont built by the Herreshoff firm at Bristol to make a speed of 271a knots, received her second official trial over a sixty mile course in Narragansett Bay today, during which she made an averagee speed of 2S.5S. Although this exceeds her contract requirements it is not quite up to the trial speed of her sister ship, the Porter, nor is 1t as high as that made by the Dupont on a pre- vious trial.
 This Is the third attempt of the boat to make her trial. The first time she broke down while going at tremendous speed. The second time, one week ago, after speeding over the course for about thirty-six miles her steam plug dropped making a continuance unadvisable. To- day th+re was general lack of vacuum, but despite this hindrance the boat made good speed. This trouble with the vac- uum is purely a local one and she will quickly be obviated after going into commission

Decatur, Ala, Aug 11--(SpeciaL)-aI will never be taken alive" said Lum AL len when he disappeared up the side of Lookout mountain in Jackson county last night after having cruelty shot and killed his son-in-law.
 Allen had been known as a dangerous man generally, being feared by all. He was charged with various shootings and 1t is said had, had several brushes with revenue officers. z ,.
 Since the shooting of his son-in-law he has been fugitive from justice with a heavy price upon his head. and not withstanding many of the bravest ofIi- cers had tried to capture him they all failed. Several of them felt the sting of his lead, for he always got the deadly drop.

The assets of the association were more than one million dollars June 30, last, with net profits of more than $255,OOO and the profits for the past six months are more than $45,O0O More than 20 per cent of the liabilities are profits, rendering it impossible for the company to be insolvent.

some Glaring Frauds

Washington, Aug. 1.-The report of Assistant Secretary Roosevelt to Secre- tary Long upon the result of the investi- gation of the New York navy yard last May, which has just been made public, makes some entertaining reading as to navy yard methods, new and old. MT. Roosevelt is unsparing in his condemna- ton of the old styi= of appointments in navy yards. and he cites the case of the furniture of the Monitor Terror, which has been ten years in the making and cost as much as $4oo for a single bu- reau. ten times the actual value of the thing, because of the fact that incompe- tent men appointed for political reasons were employed on the job.

 of Tennessee and. living in mountain fastnesses. he was always heavily arm ed and came and went at his will
 Every outlaw has his day and Aliens day came too. ,>>
 A man who knew Allen came upon him last night Allen did not see the stealthy approach and departure, living, as he fancled, in security in an old disused house-boat tied up among the bushes in one of the mountain gaps of Tennessee.
 The discoverer of the outlaw made haste to inform the officers of Jackson county of his find walking many miles in the night to reach the railroad sta- tion.
 Deputy Jim Skelton came to Decatur, and accompanied by Deputy Tom Tur- ley, they hurried to the place. Knowing the mans dangerous character, they used the utmost caution in approaching his hiding place. Fortunately they found the outlaw off his guard, and asleep, ly- ing prone in the old boat with his rifle and pistols by his side. One of the off, cers approached the boat through the water, holding his rifle overhead. In an instant Allen awoke only to be greeted by the stern commando: up with them hands or I'll bore you!" He made an in- voluntary movement for his guns, but just then he was covered by another rifle from the other end of the boat. He sul- lenly surrendered and was brought here and is now in jail.
 He will be taken to Scottsboro, but there is danger of trouble there as the people are down on him greatly.

Encorporattna Paris.

The citizens mass meeting held
in the First ward hall on Wednesf
day evening was one of the most
representative gatherings of our
townspeople ever held in the coun-
ty seat. Hsdoubtful if halfdozen
taxpayers were absent. Jos. R.
Shepherd was elected chairman
and James II. Wallis secretary.
The first business sprung was the
celebration of the Twenty Fourth,
and the following committee was
announced by the chair to look
after the matter: Mrs. W. G. Cole,
Mrs. Geo. Ashley, Bishop West,
Bishop Price, James II. Wallis,
Jos. Ceilings, Jr., e. 7. Shepherd,
W. G. Hayward, Jessie Bulge.
The following committee was then
appointed to assist the people on
the east sidesof the valley in having
a good road built straight through
the bottoms: William Bulge, W
Z. Rich and Thomas S1eight. The
subject of incorporation then came
up, on motion by VIM. L. Rich
to discuss the propriety of such a
move. The discussion that ensued
was quite animated. Arguments
were made in favor of incorpora-
ton by VIM. Bulge, Vim. L. Rich,
Robert Price, ]. A. Sutton, W. G..

opposition was led by Chas. Oakley

Every outline Of her figure is
plainly visible and the drapery
only makes it more suggestive
than it would be otherwise if the
figure was perfectly nude. One
side represents Utah in 1847 and
the other the state Of 1897. This
part of the Autograph is splendid,
but the almost nude figure in the
center and between the two scenes,
is inexcusable and we'll nigh a dis
grace. The management will
serve Utah and the jubilee just as
faithfully by not issuing such
"showy" posters.
