THOMAS Gr JONES
 A FEDERAL JUDGE Chief Justice McCIeIIand Ad- ministers Oath of Office MEMBERS OF BAR PRESENT w. H. Denson and Tennant Lomax To Meet In Joint Debate at Mont
 gomery-E. K. Hall Mys-
 teriousIy Disappears.
MEMBERS OF BAR PRESENT

Montgomery, October 10.-(Special.)- Hon. Thomas Goode Jones today took the oath of office as Judge of the United Districts of Alabama
 The administration of the oath was a very impressive scene. It occurred in the private chamber of the judge in the fed- eral building, and was witnessed by the members of the bench and bar of Mont gomery as well as the Governor of the State and other distinguished citizens.
 When the party assembled in the room Judge Jones said he thought that there should be a closer union between the members of the bench and looking to this end he had invited the several jurists of the city to be present. This included the members of the Supreme Court. Chief Justice Mcclellan administered the oath of office, and a short reception followed, ing their congratulations.
 Lomax and Denson to Meet.
 What promises to be one of the most notable joint debates during the present campaign will take place in McDonald's opera house next Saturday night. It was announced this morning that Colonel W. H. Denson of Birmingham would speak in Montgomery Saturday night in opposi- tion to the new Constitution, and that he was ready to meet all corners from the other side.
 Hon. Tennent Lomax has accepted the challenge, and as both men rank with the ablest stump speakers in the State. the public Is expecting to ''see the fur fly" The debate will doubtless attract a very large crowd to the opera house.
 E. K. Hail Missing.
 E. K. Hall, an employe of the Seaboard Air Line Railroad, Is missing. and his friends are at a loss to know his where abouts.
 He disappeared on Tuesday, the 18th of September. The company paid off its men on that day, and he received his months pay. In the morning he went out with a number of friends. Together they visited several places, and his friends left him at the Exchange Hotel corner. This was about Il o'clock in the morning. An hour two later he was seen at a bar near Riverside Park, and he has never been seen since. No one has ever heard from him since he stood at the bar at River side Park. At that time he had on his person about $40 Several characters of doubtful responsibility knew that he had some money. About Riverside Park there are a number of dangerous places for. a man with money. It is said that some of the negroes out there knew of MT. Hall and his money. He boarded at 24 Clisby Park. When he failed to return to his work his associates went to his boarding house to look for him. He had not been there since he left on the morning of the 25th. His effects were there and unclaim- ed. The search was kept up. He came from Florence. s. C., where his mother lived. She was told of his disappearance She immediately replied in a letter that showed her distressed state of mind, and she begged that the search be kept up.

Selma, October 1o.-At Palmyra, Lowndes county. Dr. Strickland. a phy- sician in that locality and T. F. Barnes got into a quarrel and Barnes shot Strickland twice with a pistol.

HUNTSVILLE
Election inspectors UnfrlendIy To Con-
 stitutlon Are Appointed.

Huntsville, October 1o.-(Special. .)-In- county to hold the election for the ratifi- cation or rejection of the Constitution were appointed yesterday by the sheriff, probate judge and circuit clerk.
 The appointments show that the Demo- cratic executive committee has been turned down because the list of inspectors presented by the committee was discussed and in nearly every instance inspectors unfriecdly to the Constitution were ap- pointed
 Among the friends of lhe Constitution, this has created a great deal of indigna- tion. Madison county gave large ma jority in favor of calling the Constitu- tional Convention and 1t Is conceded that the same majority would be turned in for ratification, under normal conditions.
 The campaign for ratification has be- gun. The first speeches were made yes- terday at Hazle Green by Judge R. w. Walker Captain John w. Grayson Hon. A. s. Fletcher and Hon. R. E. Spraggins. all of whom were convention uelega -es.
 Judge William Richadson has deter mined to go through the Muscle and Colbert Goals Canals on boat with Ma jor Wynne, assistant engineer in charge of the government works on the Tennes- see river. Judge Richardson will make the trip to secure data for the Tennessee River Improvement association which meets here October 16.
 John lamar charged with manslaugh- ter in the second degree, was acquitted by jury in the county court this morn ing. Jamar was charged with killing Motorman Will Turbyfill of the electric railway last October.
 Il It Is understood that several leading business men of Huntsville are going to make an effort to have the Southern Railroad shops placed here instead of at Sheideld A handsome bonus will proba- bly be offered. For these shops the busi- ness men of this city would probably bid nor. liperally than for any industry pro- rSsed in the last few years.

STRONG LETTER TO DR. HALL.

Stevenson, Ala, June G. 1901. Dear Sir: I have been great sufferer from bladder trouble for two years and my case was of a very serious nature compelling me to have several painful and dangerous operations. I have also taken many different remedies; I taken Swamp Root three years. Warmers 8 Sale cure two years, and they only gave temporary relief.
 After having two operations and pre- pairing for the third I saw your Texas Wonder advertised, and purchased bot tie. And I got almost immediate relief. and have continued to improve every since.
 My doctors said my bladder had grow ed together in three places, and I was suffering almost death. No man living can say more than I can say for your Texas Wonder. And I call 1t a Worlds Wonder and I hope all who suffers will give a trial.
 Wishing you success, I am,
 Yours Truly,
 W. c. DANIEL. Sold by all druggists. P. o. Box 629. St. Louis, Mo.

PRATTVILLE


 Prattville, October 1o.-(speciaL)-The approaching election to ratify the new Constitution is not creating much com ment or discussion. H. E. Gipson, Esq, has been appointed chairman of the cam paign committee to manage the cam paign. and 1t Is believed several good speakers, like Dr. Cunningham of Bir- speeches in the county before the election. There Is no doubt but that a majority of the intelligent white voters are in favor of ratification.
 Prattville is receiving more cotton than usual owing to the fact that the buyers are paying better prices than ever before. Both large ginneries here are busy all the time ginning the fieecy staple. That Prattville has advanced in a com mercial way since the last season is be- yond dispute.
 MT. Henry Raw1inson who lives nearby brought to town one day this week an ear of corn that is certainly out of the usual order of that grain. It is medium in size anu CoHthincu dpout tne orulndry number of grains to the ear, but every grain is neatly covered with a covering precisely like the "shuck'' over the full ear. Each grain clfngs very much tighter to the cob than in other ears, but when 1t is once separated from the cob 1t very easily drops out of the tiny "shuclS" and as perfect a grain of Indian corn as one can find appears. It is quite a curiosity, and the owner will plant part of 1t in an effort to propagate 1t. It must be remem- bered that a full "shuck' covered this ear as in ordinary ears of corn. It is on exhibition at D. H. Rawlinson's store.
