GENERAL WOOD
Will Take Vigorous Action to Stamp
 Out Yellow Fever in Cuba

Santiago de Cuba, July 10.-General Leon- ard Wood, the military governor, returned this morning from the United States and immediately began vigorous action to stamp out the yellow fever. He finds the situation more serious than he had antici- paed.
 Tomorrow headquarters will move to Songo, twenty miles north on the railroad a point one thousand feet above sea level, as well as all the administrative depart ments except the sanitary and few im- mune clerks in the quartermaster and con- missary staffs.
 The paymaster has been ordered to sus- pend all payments to the Cuban troops until the fever is stamped out, the special object of the order being to prevent the soldiers from drinking during the epidemic. Many predict trouble when the troops are entirely removed from the city, as there are many hundreds of destitute Cuban sol- ders already here. They are expecting payment, and mad been, though for the best reasons, put off for month.

Much Interested in the Indus
 trial Convention
TO BE HELD IN HUNTSVILLE
John Reed, Former Soldier, Attempts Criminal Assault Upon Mrs. Wright Scheme for Building
 Cooperative Cotton Mills

Huntsville, July Special)-Secretary N. r. Thompson, of the chamber of com merce has received the following letter from the governor of West Virginia In re- sponse to an invitation to be present at the industrial convention to be held in Huntsville September 1:
 My Dear Sir:-I have before me your letter of July calling my attention to the fact of an industrial convention to be held in Huntsville Monday, September 1, next, and inviting me to be present. Being southern man myself, both by birth and education, 1t Is is needless for me to say that l am in deep sympathy with any movement that will advance the industrial ways held that the south should be, and will be. the manufacturing section of our great republic l have held this because of the fact that the raw materials are found in the south, and a wise Providence cer- tainly intended that manufacturing should be conducted where the raw material ex- ists. If the south years ago, had taken up this question in its proper light and had undertaken to manufacture its own mater ial of its own soil, employing its own labor and thus keeping its own money in distri- button among It's own people, it would have been far in advance of what 1t is now. l am glad to know, however that within the past few years it has abandoned its old custom of shipping its raw material to northern sections where it was manufac- tured and then purchasing the finished products, paying the manufacturers prices fnr hoe .t- ,l,i,,r its own manufacturing. The south has the advantage of the northern states in both soil and climate, as well as in natural re- sources, therefore, if proper enterprise is shown by our southern people, they will have transferred during the next genera tion practically all the manufacturing es- tablishments the northern and central DOT tions of the republic to the southland, where they ought to have been for hun dred years.
 have spoken my views briefly upon this subject and in plain language because l am interested in the development and ad- vancement of the south, and have done my utmost for a quarter of a century to help my own people along in life l trust that the industrial gathering of our southern people in your city will give fresh impetus to southern development, and that it will be largely attended by our representative people.
 l cannot say now, because of my public duties and responsibilities whether l can be with you or not, but whether l am there or not, you can rest assured that you have my sympathies and will have all the assist ance in my power to forward the objects of the gathering. Cordially and truly yours, G. w. ATKINSON,
 Governor of West Virginia.

Drought Continues Much to the Detri-
 ment of Crops

Hartselle, July 1O.-(Special.)-The drought continues. This section has not had gen. eral rain in nine weeks. and in consequence the crops have suffered much in some To- calities. One farmer said yesterday that he realized one thousand bushels of corn for rent for his farm last year, but did not ex- pect to make a thousand bushels on the en- tire farm this year.

OLD FASHIONED MUSIC
Saturday at Chautauqua Devoted to
 Singing Contests

Talladega, July 10.-(Special )-Saturday large and interested audience was pres ent to witness the old fashioned singing contest. There were three classes, one from Clay, Childersburg and Tallapoosa, and as they ascended the rostrum they were heartily cheered
 Manager Vandiver announced the board of judges, who were Professors Laverty and Williams, of the Blind Academy, and Chancellor R. B. Kelley, and the contest began, the music being from the old-fash- toned Sacred Harp. Five selections were given by each class respectively. It would be impossible to describe the melody and sweetness of the old-fashioned songs. Friends of the different classes manifested much interest and enthusiasm, but 1t was soon evident that the Tallapoosa class was the favor1te although the quaint style of Clay and Chfldersburg caught many of the audience. At o'clock in the afternoon the decision of the judges being withheld till that time, Chancellor Kelley announced that Tallapoosa was the winner, and in a graceful manner presented the prize, q beautiful medal, representing a harp to Professor Holloway, the chancellor refer ring to him as one whose life had been a song and whose voice had been a melody for forty years.
 Fred " Truman, the impersonator, ap- peared in the afternoon in Dickens "Crick- ct on the Hearth" exhibiting talent of a high order. His entertainment was liter ary treat.
 In the evening Adrian Plate. master of legerdemain held the board and offered the little ones no end of fun in the exhibition of many wonderful slight of hand tricks.
