AN OLD CONFEDERATE VETERAN
Seymour Garner, loS Years Old, is
 Still Hale and Hearty

Camden, August 2S.-(Special.) .)-Perhaps the oldest confederate soldier living is Seymour Garner, who lives in Minis beat Wilcox county. He was at the reunion recently held near here. Though 10S years old, he is still alert and full of the old time confederate spirit. He is remarkably we'll preserved, and was told few years ago by pr. McDaniel, of this place, that he would surely see no years. MT. Garner has been married three times, and has buried all his wives and nine children. He has only one child living, man about 50 years old. The son was born after the father was gray. The oldest citizens can not remember MT. Garner except as an old man with gray hair and beard. MT. Garner was born in Georgia, and in 1872 came to this county when this was the Indian Ter ritory, wild and unsettled.

Under this head Paye also charged up @ sn error of three dollars in the removal bill of a prisoner of Lowndes county. The removal bill plainly shows that it required only only one day to make the removal, and the bhl has two days service allowed. In justice to MT. Parks, I will state that he received no part of this removal fec
 'It was paid to E. W. Smith, who made the removal for MT. Parks. Exhibit c shows three- board bills collected by MT. Parks, which have not been refunded. Ex- hibit F shows persons who were held in jail ostensibly upon the charge of public drunkenness, but the evidence showed they were only held in order to sober them up. They were held upon warrants issued by magistrates, charging public drunkenness. These warrants were executed by arresting these defendants and committing them to jail, as shown from the returns upon them. The warrants were never returned to the magistrates issuing them; case was docketed, but as soon the defendants sobered up they were released from con- finement. The board of these persons hav- ing been paid by the state, l certainly con- sider it an illegal charge.
 Exhibit G shows the board paid by the state on account of the wrong persons hav- ing been confined I find that there has not been the proper care exercised in the filing and preserving of the orders of commit ments of processes by which prisoners are confined in jail that the law requires, as very many of them are missing, and could not be found. l find that quite large number of prisoners are held upon war rants alone. A bare warrant issued by a magistrate is not sufficient of itself to hold a person in jail. The mandate in the warrant commands the arrest of the de- fendant, and brings him before the magis trate, yet I find many of these warrants with the endorsement, Executed by ar resting the defendant and committing him to jail I find that some have been con- fined without any process at all. l find that some have been held in jail after date of sentence to hard labor, and their board for this time has been paid by the state. I find quite number after having been confined for days in jail have been re- leased upon habeas corpus proceedings. The statute requires the sheriff to attach a copy of the process by which a defendant is held to the writ"

Six Percent. Gold Bonds

q The liquidators of the Bank of Com merce of New Orleans hold, among the as- sets of the bank, $10,700 bonds of the Cor dova Coal, Land and Improvement Com pang. The total issue of these bonds was $76,5 ,550, of which some $1,5O0 have been re- tired They are secured by over 20,00O acres x of coal lands in Walker and Jeerson coun- fties. Alabama, within thirty miles of Bir- mingham. Some of these are among the finest coal lands in the state, and the whole are worth from $300,O 900 to S4O0,000. A s6OO.00O cotton mill is in full operation on land given by the Cordova company and next to its present holdings.
 Interest at the rate of 6 per cent. is now running on the bonds, the first semi-annual payment being due in January next.
 2 The liquidation of the affairs of the Bank of Commerce has proceeded to a point which makes it desirable that the bonds held in its assets be sold, and the liqufda- tors are prepared to receive bids for them for cash. They certainly offer a fine chance for a good investment in these days when many cities sell their 3h and per cent. bonds at high premium. and the and g per cent bonds of large corpora tions throughout the country are readily sold above par Parties interested tre in- vfted to address Messrs.

Last year $300O0 was added to its endowment. A $7.0O0 gymnasium built by the graduates of the institution is nearing completion. Among it's gradu- ates are several governors, the present governor of Georgia being one of them. It has the finest body of students in the south.

Measured by high standards, tho entire college life-the character of its students-the standard of scholarship-its fine democratic spirit and college enthu- siasm-are all of a high order. It has splendid law school, with Judge Emory Speer as dean. On the cooperative plan. the cost of board for students who must economize has been reduced to $6 month.

MORGAN AT MAPLESVILLE

Age-Herald Bureau, Hotel Mabson Mont gomery, August 28.-(Special)-It is not improbable that there will be new entry fore mentioned in connection with the of flee This man is Judge A. H. Aston, of Barbour. Judge Aston spent Friday and Sunday in Montgomery, going to Brming ham Saturday to attend the meeting of the board of trustees of the Girls Industrial school at Montevallo. While Judge Aston was in this city the discussion of his name as gubernatorial possibility arose.
 Judge Aston was seen and asked in re- gard to the probability of his entering the race. Tt is all new to me, the discussion of my name in connection with the guber- material race,'' he said.
 There is no doubt, however, but that Judge Aston is himself inclined to treat the proposition seriously, and 1t will not be at all surprising if he should very soon enter the contest. His friends make good argument for him as a logical candidate. In the first place. they say that he is an original Bryan and free silver advocate, and that he has not antagonized any fac- ton in the recent contests His judicial ana personal records are DOln cledn ana clear. He has served Barbour as probate judge and the last legislature created the position of supernumerary judge, and then elected Judge Aston to fill the office.
 Judge Aston was in the governors of flee a great deal while here, but the Aston boom is not thought to emanate from the executive office. However, une of the of ficials said this morning that Aston would be splendid timber for the cabinet to get together on. There is said to be serious division in the ranks of the cabinet as to whom they will support. The next gov ernor will have his hands full of appoint ments, and it is but natural that appointees should be looking out for the future.
 One of the livest political questions going the rounds about the capitol is as to wheth- CT Hon. John w. Tomlinson and Dr. R. M. Cunningham will enter the gubernatorial race. It seems to be generally understood that either one or the other will make the race. Both have strong friends in Mont gomery. A local politician who keeps well informed on state affairs said this morning that he was rather surprised to see the rise in Tomlinson stock in this county. The silver men look upon him as the leader of the Bryan cause in Alabama, and if they are faithful to anything in this county it is to their silver leaders.

 ''This examination covered a period of three years, from August 15 1S96 to Au- gust 15, 1899. Ira H.

 "Very much of my time and investiga- tion has been confined to an examination of the bond bills paid by the state on &C., count of prisoners confirmed in jail and to a general probing into the management of this institution.
 'I have checked and compared these board bills with the jail register I have also checked and compared the commit ment of processes by which prisoners were confined in jail where they were obtaina- ble, with the date of commitment on the jail register I have also examined the bills paid by the state on account of the re- moval of prisoners from other counties and I have also examined and inquired into the legality of the processes by which pris- oners were confined in pail. As a result of this examination some errors have been discovered, some of which are merely cleri- cal, some arose from carelessness and others from misconstruction of the law. These amounts have been charged back to MT.
