ALARM TURNED IN,
Capt. Redwood,s speech Before the.

Capt. Redwooti,s Speech Before the
Finance Commit ec was interrupted.
The House Committee on Finance con-
sidered the bill for the appropriation OF
funds to the. Relief Fund of the State
Firemen's Association. but came to no
consideration yesterday morning.
The bill, introducedin the Housetby Mrs
Bland, provides for the appropriation OF
$3.50 annually for the Relief Fund OF
the Association.
A number of prominent firemen from
various parts of the State appeared before
the committee and spoke in its interest
Those who spoke were Delegate Bland.
who also introduced the other speakers,
and Niessrs. John Redwood, OF Richmond:
L. E. I,ookabill, of Roanoke; VIM. gStorr,
of Newport News, and L. ]. Williams. OF
Charlottesville.
During Mr.. Redwood's speech an alarm
of fire was turned inland he was forced
to leave hurriedy for the scene of con-
Migration.
This seemed an object. lesson as to the
prompthess with which the volunteer fire.
men perform their duties. !,
Mr. Bland declared that the alarm had
not been pre-arranged. and some merri-
ment resulted.

Office with that of Secretary of the
Commonwealth.
'.It was very exciting session.. said
Mr.. Barksdale. .tAlr. Folkes, who was
leading the fight against the measure,
said there were prominent politicians
outside of the General Assembly trying
to control legislation I, in my reply,
said Mr.. F'olkes ought to call names.
Everybody. I suppose. guessed whom he
had reference to. So I stated that II
it could be shown to my satisfaction that
Senator Thomas S. Martin was behind
the movement to abolish the; Register
of Land Office I would rot support the
bill airy longer. The report in The Times
makes it appear that 1 stated emphati-
cally that Mr.. Martin was behind the
movement. On the contrary. [ have no
reason to believe that Mr.. Martin cares
the snap of his finger astto whether or
not the position is abolished. What
was after was to make Mr.. Folkes give
names.
The error in The Times report was
simply this. did not assert that Mr..
Martin wanted this any other bill
passed, butt did say that IL It could be
shown to my satisfaction that the Sena-
tor was seeking to influence votes for
this bill would support it no longer"

Foul Smelling
Catarrh.

Catarrh is one OF the most obstinate
diseases, and hence the most difficult
to get rid of.
There is but one way to cure it.
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe-s
cific cures Catarrh permanently, forit is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and. force it from the blood.

Ky, had Catarrh for years. He writes:
