KNIGHTS FINISH WORK
Will Hold Their Next Annual Sessio n
 in Anniston

The grand lodge Knights of Pythias finished the business of the session yester- day afternoon and adjourned to meet in Anniston next year.
 The contest over the place for holding the next session was spirited, Anniston finally winning over Birmingham by majority of eleven votes. The last ballot was as follows: Anniston, 65 Birming- ham, 54; Bessemer, 8.
 The entire session yesterday was devoted to receiving reports from the various con- mittees After the hearing of committee reports the new officers were sworn in.' The newly elected grand chancellor, MT. Wadsworth, made a short address on the prospects of the order. The sum of $500 was then appropriated to defray the ex- penses of the grand chancellor in visiting the lodges throughout the state. It was reported that Founder Ludwick of the en- dowment rank, of Huntsville, needed as- sistance, and $100 was raised for his bene- fit.
 The session then adjourned to meet again in Anniston.
 This has been very important meeting, and the reports from the various commit tees showed the order to be in q most fiourishing condition.

SOUTHERN MAY
 BUY MORE LAND In Addition to Its Purchase of
 Some Weeks Ago. WANTS ITS BLOCKCOMPL To Secure This They Would Have to Get the Property Between A. C..
 s. Tracks, Powell Avenue
 and Twentieth Street
WANTS ITS BLOCKCOMPL EYE

There has been great deal of entirely new gossip developed during the past few days in regard to the new passenger sta tion which some people assert the South ern railway will erect on the strip of land between Powell avenue and the Alabama Great Southern tracks.
 It will be remembered that several weeks ago the Southern paid $10OOOO cash for the long strip between these two rail- roads, extending from about Twenty-first to Twenty-second street. This property was purchased from Majer-. W. A. Hand- ley and T. T. Hillman, of this city, Major Handley owning the largest share. =
 Wanted All of the Strip
 It is new said that the original agree ment which Major Handley made with the Southern was that the Southern should buy all of the strip between Powell avenue and the Alabama Great Southern railroad, and Twentieth and Twenty-second streets providing, however, that Major Handley could obtain for reasonable rate all of that property near Twentieth street, now covered by store buildings The Southern, it is said, agreed to pay $23O, 900 for all of this property, provided it could be ob- taned.
 But the other property holders wouldn't agree, so the deal for the whole strip had to be declared off.
 According to another term of the agree ment the railroad then bought for $10O- 900 all of the vacant land owned by Major Handey and MT. Hillman. When the rest of the property was on the market it was to be bought for $19O,0OO
 Whether the other property owners on the strip will come to terms and sell their property to the Southern, or whether the Southern wants any more property than they already have, remains to be seen. It is argued that the additional land would give the Southern an enormous power, and there are many who believe that it's off, cials are trying hard to get all that they haven't already bought.

THREE GALLONS OF WHISKY
Cause. Lots of Correspondence in the
 Revenue Department

The fact that Alabama has been found short three and one-tenth gallons of whis- key has caused large amount of corre- spondence between the local revenue offt- eials and the department at Washington. The. shortage was detected by the revenue department, and rigid investigation will be had until the cause of the error is found. From the information the government has the mistake was made somewhere in the state of Alabama three years ago, but as yet the exact place has not been definitely located. The present status of the affair is that three years ago a gauger in Middle Alabama made @ mistake in regauging some whisky and this is supposed to be the cause of the present shortage. The store keeper and gauger in regauging the whis- ky put the stamps on the wrong barrels and therein lies the trouble.
 As soon as the shortage was discovered in Washington letters commenced pouring into the local office From there letters commenced going all over the state. The whole system of revenue machinery has been put to work, and until the cause of the error is discovered it will keep right on.
 The revenue department of the govern ment is worked on such smooth system that not even pint of whisky can be miss ing without it's discovery being made. They never stop and give up looking for an error. It may be fifteen years before the shortage in Alabama is located, but the work will go right on just the same.

yet it carries with it burdens and re- responsibilities which ever call upon the
 incumbent for an exercise of patient forbearance intelligent thought and wig liant activity. You need not expect to please every one. Men differ in their views on public questions; and he who would stop and attempt to deny them
 the right in their opinions Is an idler in the workshop of public life.
 "Here, as elsewhere, you will meet
 with contending factions and contend ing interests; and I believe that the ofii- cil who is bold enough to say No is
 most happily equipped for fair and just administration of public affairs.
 Tn committing to your hands tke honors, the burdens and the respon- abilities of this office, I feel and be- lieve you will jealously guard the pub
 lie credit and integrity of this munich
 pality, and I wish for you and your
 associates a most successful admin
 istration, marked by a spirit of broad
 ness, firmness and progress, and com
 mend you for guidance to Him who
 rules over the deStinies of cities as
 well as of nations"
 Mayor Drennen accepted the gavel, and stated that he had several suggestions to make to the board, "which, on account of hoarseness, he asked the clerk to read The suggestions were as follows:
 'To the Honorable, the Board of Aldermen ''In presenting these suggestions for your consideration, I desire to congratulate you t4.al the opportunity is before you for ren- dering service of great value to our city.
 "It is my earnest desire that the most cordial and friendly relations should al ways exist between the mayors office and the council, as well as with all the city officials, from the highest to those holding the most humble positions. The best re- suits in government come only from the hearty cooperation of all who have been called into public service, and l trust that mutual relations will enable it's to accom- plsh the performance of our arduous duties.
 "Under the new city charter the mayor is required to submit to the board of alder men an annual and semi-annual message. As the time for the latter will come during the month of July, I shall not now antici- pate what shall then be laid before you, but will offer only a few suggestions that appear pertinent to the time:
 Standing Committees
 "In selecting the membership of the vari- ous committees-a matter that will engage my early attention-it will be my purpose to.have in view only the qualifications and fitness of the individual member; that such appointments shall manifestly be made and made only for the best interest of the city. I earnestly enjoin it upon every member that good committee service is an all-important thing; and my experience is that no better results can be obtained than through the instrumentalty of strong, un- biased and fearless committees, acting in harmony with the mayor. |, therefore,

GYPSIES HAVE GONE
A Girls Father Secured $lOO from Pros-
 pective Son-in-Law and Fled

The large party of Brazilian Gypsies, which has been attracting so much atten- tlon in this city for the past week or so, left yesterday for parts unknown. There were ten families of the party, and their picturesque camp, with it's ragged tents and brown babies, attracted many visitors.
 The crowds were so large on Sundays that policeman was detailed to keep or der.
 The pretty bIack-eyed girls earned many a quarter for fortunes shrewdly guessed and skilfully told The men scattered through the city or lounged about the camp smoking and chatting in their musi- cal Romany tongue.
 During their stays here marriage was celebrated. The ceremony lasted several days and was kept secret until it was completed.
 The bride was very pretty girl, appar-
