dock and gazed fixedly at the witness, evil

or Of re-establishing her hypnotic tntiu-
ence. But the girl frustrated the effort
by turning her back to the female prisoner

her request. ~

START ON HOME IN DECEMBER.
Hope to Have Everything In Readiness
In Five Months.

II things continue as the trustees OF
institution hope for. the work OF rebuild
ing the Soldiers Home will be started
BY the first of December and completed
within four months from that time, so
that the old heroes will by the opening
of next spring again be beneath roof
Of their own.
Five sets of plans for the new home are
now in course Of preparations. Three Of
these contemplate the cottage plan in a
more or less modified form, and the other
contemplate single building-one Of
them for a building TO be erected upon the
foundations of the old home.
All of these plans provide for fitting up
the new home with all of the most modern
improvements-inelud a complete and
efficient set of waterworks. The trus-
tees of the home will make a strong ef-
fort to have the legislature appropriate
the insurance money on the home for
new building during the early part OF the
session, so that work can be begun at the
earliest possible moment. In making this
effort they do not anticipate any opposi-
ton.

MONTGOMERY FLAG FESTIVAL.
spars From Spanish Ships to BE Used
AS FLAG Poles.

MONTGOMERY. Ala. Oct. 1S.-Mont-
gomery viii have free. fall festival this
year beginning Monday. October 2sth,
and ending Saturday. November I'd.
The opening day viii be flag day and
1t promises to rival all other days dur
ing the gala week
Captain r. P. Hobson has brought to
this country two spars. One Is sixty
feet long and was taken from the Spanish
vessel Don Juan de Austria, which was
sunk by Admiral Dewey at Manila. The
other is thirty-fiye feet long and was
taken from the Spanish ship Oquendo,
which, was sunk by Admiral Schley at
Santiago. Hobson intended to present the
spars as a present to his native state,
but after. their arrival in America the
secretary of the navy said that they
were still the property of the federal gov
eminent and Hobson could not give them
away without the consent Of congress.
For a time 1t appeared that the spars,
which were to be used as flag poles. would
not come to Montgomery in time for the
flag day of the fall festival The local off,
Gals took up the matter with ex-Secretary
of the Navy Hilary A. Herbert, who sue
ceeded in getting the promise Of the sec
rotary of the navy to loan the spars to
the state of Alabama and orders have al
ready been sent to the commandants of
the navy yards at Norfolk and at New,
York, where the spars are and they will be
shipped to Montgomery at once. It will
require an act of congress for the spars
to be presented to Alabama, but as that
is only a matter of form and the gov
eminent has no use for the spars, they
will no doubt be the property of the state
permanently.
The spars will be fastened together and
a flag pole ninety-ive feet high will be
made of them. This pole win be planted
with imposing ceremonies on the capitol
grounds. The first American flag which
was raised over Santiago and which is the
property of General Wheeler, viii be
loaned the fall festival people for the
occasion and this flag win adorn the his
tnric flag mole during the gala week.

ultimate effect on this city.
Many think it is the very thing Way
cross has been praying for for years. but
others look upon it with forebodings.
They think that it means for the Air Line
to. move its headquarters away from here
and that the road viii buy out the Bruins

Waycross entirely out of the box.
