A WOMAN GAME WARDEN.
She Isn't Afraid of Indians, But Is Shaky as to
 Cows.

From the St. Louis Republic.
 Miss Annie Metcalf. of Denver, has just been appointed as warden on the staff of Game Commissioner Swan, of Colorado Miss Metcalf is well qualified for the prac- tical duties of the position. She Is an ex- pert rifle and revolver shot and can handle most weapons as dexterously as any man. She is also clever horsewoman and as a daring, dashing rider is without an equal among her sex in the state. She has broken vicious broncos and nothing de- lights her more than to tackle a "bucker" that has been pronounced unbreakable. While guns and revolvers, red Indians, vi- cious bronchos and wild beasts have no terrors for the young woman, the sight of COW Is enough to give her nervous prostra- ton.
 "Yes," she said, q cannot deny it; I am deathly afraid of COW and would ride farther to get out of the road of one than would from a band of redskins. I do not fear mice in the least, like some women, but COW is my worst enemy. If should be sent out to Routt county to fight In- dians or run down game violators, MT. Swan would have to give me a guarantee that there were no COWS in the vicinity or I would hesitate about going. I was chased by a. COW about two weeks ago and had a hideous experience. I ran an awful ways and had to climb a telegraph pole"
 There Is only one other woman game warden in the United States. Her name is Mrs. Warren Neal, and she serves on the staff of the game commissioner of Michi- gan.

BITTEN BY MAD DOG.
Martin Webster, of West Huntsville, Attacked
 by His Pet
speclal to The Age-HeraId.

Huntsville, Jan. 5.-Martin Webster, l5- year-old boy of West Huntsville, was bitten last night by a mad dog which he had taken home for a pet. The boy and his mother were feeding the dog, when it was seized with a fit of rabies and attacked them. The woman succeeded in avoiding the dog, but the boy received an ugly wound on the arm. Webster was brought to Huntsville and a maidstone was applied to the wound this morning.
 Miss Annie Hundley of Mooresville, who was accidentally shot Monday at Triannh, by Edmund Toney, was not fatally wound- ed as was at first believed. She received only flesh wound, which will readily heal. Miss Hundley is very popular in Athens and Limestone county.
 The board of mayor and aldermen defer red action on motion. made at a business session last night to abolish street gas lamps and substitute electric arc lights. Ac. ton will be taken on this matter at the next regular meeting.
 The owners of property along the spring branch have received knockout blow in their attempt to prevent the emptying of the new sewer system in the stream. They claimed that there was not enough water to carry away the sewage, and had Col. George E. Waring, superintendent of the street cleaning department of New York to come to Huntsville and give his opinion on the subject. Col. Waring reported last night that there was enough water in the stream for the purpose desired. Work on the trunk sewers to the new system had been sus- pended pending Col Warlngs decision.

NOW A CERTAIN ".
Road Now in Course of Construction Will Be
 Completed to Atlanta
Special to The Age-Herald.

Special to The Age-Herald.
 Selma, Jan. 5.-Col. R. M. Mitchell, presi- dent of the Atlanta and Alabama Air Line who has been in New York for a month past, has returned to Selma. and was seen this morning by The Age-Herald corre- spondent.
 To the reporter Col. Mitchell stated that it could now be given out as certainty that the road now in course of construc- tion between Selma and Alexander City would be completed to Atlanta. The original survey of the road made the dis tance POP miles from Atlanta to Selma. The engineers as they go along in front of the grading corps have instructions to cut out every curve. In Coosa county there is big bend which it is proposed to cut out, thereby saving fifteen miles, and small curve leaving Atlanta and one in Autauga county will be strengthened, making saw ing of ten miles, making the distance be- tween this point and the Atlanta terminal 1S0 miles, forty-five miles shorter than the Western or Atlanta and West Point makes 1t.
 Col. Mitchell said he could not go into the details of the arrangements made, but that there is not now the slightest hitch and the road will move rapidly on. AL ready ten miles have been graded, and not many weeks will elapse before the iron will be laid.
 Lee Bryan, United States marshal for the middle district of Alabama, after spending pleasantly ten days in the city, has return ed to his home in Montgomery.

After midnight 1t begins gradually to rise, and as the sun rises above the horizon the flower also rises above the water, expands and raises itself some distance above the element in which it grows" It was also through this pecu- liarity that Hancarvile proved that the Egyptians considered the lily an emblem of the world it rose from the waters of the deep.
