THE DELEGATION
 IS WELL PLEASED
Bright Prospects for Improve
 ment of Co0Sa River.
COMMITTEE WAS IMPRESSED
With the Propositions Laid Down by the Different Speakers An Emer- gency Bill Will be Framed
 for the Present Session

Washington, May 15.-(Special )-Alabama and Georgia occupied most of the time of the river and harbor committee today, the delegation appearing from these states asking s5O0000 now for beginning the im- provement of the Coosa river. All Alabama congressman and Senator Pettus and Col onel Youngbood were in attendance
 Addresses were made by B. B. Hamil- ton of Rome, Ga, for the Georgia end of the river; Captain w. P Lay, Gadsden, for the portion between Gadsden and Broken Isle; Frank A. Lathrop, Riverside; Cabot Lull, Wetumpka, and Captain Flager of United States engineers. The arguments made were that the im- mense coal, iron, timber and lime re- sources of that section were locked up; that the proposed improvement would open an immensely valuable country to the bet terment of the entire country; that the provision for slack water navigation would open mines cause furnaces to be estab- lished, mills and factories to be built, and generally add to the prosperity of Alabama and Georgia.
 One argument of particular strength was made by Captain Flagler, showing that coal, if the proposed improvement is made, could be carried to the gulf at 22 cents per ton, where it now costs from $1 to $1.50 to send it by rail- In view of the immense possibilities in shipping coal to Europe this argument was regarded especially inn portant.
 The arguments were placed before the committee most forcibly in the hour al- lotted to the delegation. The committee was evidently much impressed by the dele gation's presentation of the case and was convinced of the importance of the pro- posed improvement as well as the enter prise and industry of the Alabamians. Every member of the rivers and harbors committee present at the hearing as well as congressman not on the commit tee.
 The manifestation of interest in the proposition is most satisfactory to the del egation and Alabama congressman, who feel confident that the Coosa river i'm provement will receive the committees at tentfon in due time.
 Members of the committee commented most favorably upon the delegations pre- sentation of the case, and the delegation returns home much gratifed with the pros poets.

CURIOUS
MuSkOSee People Think Den-
mis- Flynn is Looking
For Trouble.

The Muskogee Times says: Hon
Dennis Flynn, of Oklahoma was in
town FOR few hours today, He is
largely interested in mining property
in the northwestern part of the terri
tory. 1t is stated however that his
business here today has no relation to
mining property and thatlhe is getting
data for little investigation of fed
eral officers in the territory. Mr..
Flynn has always aimed high and the
game he now looking for is, If reports
be true "some OF the finest" Several
people are standing on the "tiptoe of
expectancy" waiting to see the out
come of his visit.
MIR. Flynn believes the future of
this territory-that is, the immediate
future-rather uncertain. There seems
to be no way, no satisfactory way out
of the dilemma. Annexation to Okla
homa as the different sections in the
territory are ready. This lis Dennis

pretty near following out the sugges~
ton, There is hardly q conceivable

SUPERIOR MERIT
Remarkable Curative Properties of a Remedy for Indigestion and Sto-
 mach Weakness

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, preparation for the cure of dyspepsia and the various forms of indigestion and stomach trouble, owes it's great success a cure for these troubles to the fact that 1t is prepared for disease and weakness of the stomach and digestive organs only, and is not recom- mended or advised for any other disease.
 It is not a cure-all, but for any stomach trouble 1t is undoubtedly the safest, most sensible remedy that can be advised with the prospect of a permanent cure. It is prepared in tablet form, pleasant to taste, composed of vegetable and fruit essences, pure pepsn and Golden Seal, every one of which act effectively in digesting the food eaten thereby resting and invigorating the weak stomach; rest is natures cure for any disease, but you cannot rest the stom- ach unless you put into it something that will do it's work or assist in the digestion of food.
 That is exactly what Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets do, one grain of the digestive prin- ciple contained in them will digest 5000 grains of meat, eggs similar wholesome foods, they will digest the food whether the stomach is in working order not, there- by nourishing the body and resting the stomach at the same time and rest and nourishment is natures cure for any weakness.
 In persons run down in flesh and appe- tite three tablets build up the strength and increaSe flesh, because they digest flesh formin 1Mfood which the weak stomach can not do, they increase the flow of gastric juice and prevent fermentation, acidity and sour watery risings.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be found at all drug stores at 50 cts. per package.
