Local DeIeeat,s Will Leave Monday and Tuesday-Time of pr. Haw- kins at East Lake
 Expires.

The North Alabama conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, Southmee at Anniston Thursday. November g. and the Rev. J. D. Simpson, presiding elder, expects to make one of the best reports ever sent from the Birmingham district.
 There will probably be a few changes made in the pastorates of the district, said Dr. Simpson yesterday. but l am not now prepared to say what they will be. Dr. Hawkins time at East Lake ex- pires and it is likely that some one will be substituted in his stead. while he will go to another field"
 Twenty-Five ministers and four lay delegates will go from Birmingham to the conference and they will leave the city Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Dr. Simpson will leave here Tuesday morning. The lay delegates are w. E. Weir. S. B. Yielding, A. W. Smith and F. NJ. Jackson.
 Delegates to General Conference.
 There is no matter of special conse- quence to come before the conference" said Dr. Simpson, "outside of the cleo tion of five preachers and five laymen as delegates to attend the general confer cree. which meets in Dallas Tex, next year.
 Referring to the work of the church in the Birmingham district Dr. Simpson said the year has been one of the most successful in the history of the church.
 we have had 800 additions to the mem bership on profession of faith and 300 by certificate. This is a net increase of about 1200 members" he continued.
 "We are able to pay all connectional claims and have raised $12O0 over the as sessment for missions We have made an increase of $2500 over last year for the support of the ministry. and this in itself is big item.'
 Speaking of building and repairing churches, Dr. Simpson saM over s16,ooO had been raised for building, repairing and furnishing churches throughout the Birmingham district, and that one new church had been built and three others were in course of construction.
 New Church at Ensley.
 "A church has been built at Ensley which will cost s15,OOO," said he 'and another one has been started at Pratt City to cost in the neighborhood of $s000. A church being built at East Birmingham will cost about 5000.
 .sAll in all" continued Dr. Simpson, ''the members of the Methodist Church in the Birmingham district have raised sum of money for church purposes dur

ing the past year which will aggregate something over se0.000."
 Dr. Simpson expects large attendance at the Anniston conference and thinks much good will be done the church in North Alabama. He said Bishop E. R. Hendricks of Kansas City would be the presiding officer. He Is a fine parlia- mentarian as well as a speaker, and pre- sided over the North Alabama conference two years ago.

ROSTERS Grower Cut Off.
JUSTICE.

Since warm weather has come and
windows are open in the early morn
ing sleepers are reused by noises ON
the streets. In the city of Washing
ton many complaints are being re-
ceived by the police about the crow
ing of cocks and cackling of hens kept
by persons in the resident portion of
the city. The police regulations pro-
hibit the keeping of such fowls when
they are an annoyance, and fine on
the owner may be imposed. Inquiry
at police headqual tiers elected the in
formation that such complaints
should be supported by the testimony
of two witnesses from different houses
to show that the noise is nuisance.
In this connection a story was told
of a man in the northwestern section
who had a rooster whose Growing
qualities were of the best and whose
voice could be heard all over the
neighborhood. Finally his neighbors
thought they could endure the noise
no longer and they hauled the owner
of the rooster into court. Here he
promised the bird should trouble
them no more, and on that promise
was released. The next morning the
neighbors saw the rooster in the yard
and held an indignation meeting.
Calling on the owner they wanted
to know why he had not kept his
promise. He asked them if the bird
was annoying anyone. 1t had not
yet, but they thought it might. He
thereupon pointed to the rooster,
which was Tapping his wings and 60
ing through all the motions accom-
panying Growing, but without sound
issuing from his throat, and informed
them that he had taken it to a veter
marian, who had removed it's vocal
cords. 1t is said the antics of the
dumb rooster while attempting to
crow are most amusing.

Their development in youth is not
warped by any of the conventionali-

To the Editor OF The Republican.
Having no lake to grind" and be-
ing an old citizen and taxpayer of
Garrett county, and lifelong Re
publican, | regard it privilege, if
not duty to express my humble sen
timents through THE REPUBLICAN.
We have plenty of good senatorial
timber, but only room for one, and
the one we think should be selected
for that important Office has been
mentioned by another. Being person
ally acquainted with the man, we
know him to be well qualified for and
highly deserving the Office.
He is man of strict integrity, an
old citizen and an ardent Republican.
He is man of the people and has
stood up nobly for their best interests.
He has had considerable experience
serving the public and no one has
served us better, therefore, it is with
much pleasure that we suggest the
name of Hon. A. F. George.
Not long since there was much said
about the rights of the people and
the expenditure of a few hundred
dollars of public funds for printing,
publishing, etc. Whether the amount
thus expended was excessive or not
we will not stop to consider, but those
same persons appear quite conserva-
tive if not silent in regard to the in
famous acts of the extra session of
our State Legislature. One hundred
thousand dollars or more of the pub
lie funds of our State is being expend-
ed as result of the uncalled for "ses-
sion,' while thousands of good honest
taxpayers are further outraged by be-
ing disfranchised and robbed of an
inalienable right that they hitherto
enjoyed. The parties referred to
above remind us of the "Blind guides
which strain at gnat and swallow a
camel"

BALTIMORE, May 9.-The council
manic election today resulted in a

tenth. The Republican majorities
ranged from % to 761. For the second

vote will not be known until the re-
turns can be analyZed.

CORKSCREW PHILOSOPHY.

Selfishness is the first law of degen-
GRAFTON.
Selfishness and sin are convertible
terms-they both mean the same
thing.
Live and let live is IA very good
motto-but live and help to live is
much better.
Never bother much in thinking
about yourself, better think about
something worth while.
Gods blessings are not always with
the prosperous man,-the devil pays
good wages too.
All life is action,-better be an ac-
tive sinner than an idle saint: it is
the willing worker that makes the
wheels go round.
The true gospel of life is to be up
and doing. Life is energy and energy
is life. Every atom is imbued with
the spirit of energy. When energy
dies the world is done. Are you dead
in the shell or merely taking rest ?
