GO TO MRS. M'KINLEY.
unique G1tts Received During Presi-
dent McKinley's Life Are
Sent to Canton.

A president always receives num-
oerless gifts from notoriety-seek-
ers and persons who are eager to
display to the president the results
OF their handiwork. One man two or
three years ago gave to President Me-
klnley large model of full-rigged
ship with every part of the vessel
perfect in detail. Another sent
bottle, inside of which had been ar
ranged cfeverly framework of
sticks which causes one to marvel
how it could have been constructed
with only the small neck of the bot
tie through which to work.
President Mckinley received prob
ably not less than 40 or so canes dur
ing his first administration, nearly all
OF them representing the handiworl:
of some veteran of the civil war or
some person who had occupied idle
moments in executing these speci-
mems of skill in carving.
These are samples of hundreds Of
articles that were presented to Mr..
Mckinley, and which are presented
to every president during his term
in the white house. Mr.. Mckinley
always had these scrupulously pre-
Servet. although some of them were
;;her cumbersome and bulky and of
TO possible value or interest. They
were ::ored in the spacious attic of
the W tie house, and thence they
have Zen removed and shipped to
Ohio.
No fewer than 50 flags were re-
ceived by President Mckinley as pres
ents from various persons and or
CARNATIONS. On the Pacific tour last
spring he received 10 or ~ flags, the
stats often being carved from pieces
of wood with historic associations.
Nearly all of these were preserved in
his library, and they have been
packed in a separate box for ship
ment to Mrs. Mckinley

 the Public for the Past
 Two Years.

Tomorrow morning the change in the Police Judgeship or Recorders Court takes place.A. H. Arlington succeeds Re- corder B. c. Tarver.
 At the first meeting of the newly elect ed City Council MT. Arlington was elect ed to the office of Recorder over Judge Tarver.
 For the past two years Judge Tarver held the position and during that time he has given eminent satisfaction. On mum bers of occasions cases decided by him have been appealed to higher courts and almost invariably his rulings have been affirmed.
 Mir. Arlington, the new Judge. has for about four years been Private Secretary to the Mayor, holding the position during the administration of Captain John H. Clisbv and being reappointed when MT. E. B. Joseph was elected Mayor. He was reappointed and was entering on the sec ond term of Mayor Joseph's administra- tion when he was elected by the Council to the office of Recorder. a position his friends are confident that he will fill with credit to himself and the city.

MONTGOMERY THEATRE.
"Her Lord and Master" Drew Large
 and Fashionable Audience.

'|Her Lord and Master" Drew Large
 and Fashionable Audience.
 A peep into the Montgomery Theatre last night disclosed a scene in striking contrast to the motley throng that was passing through the streets adjacent to the old playhouse. es
 The attraction Twas "Her Lord and Master" presented by the joint stars, Miss Fife Shannon and MT. Herbert Kelcey. and the theatre wasfilled to over flowing with one of the finest, most fash ionable and cultured audiences of the season. The highest compliment that could be paid the audience that greeted the presentation of the play Is to say that not more than a dozen persons were in the gallery. The family circle and orchestra circle was packed.
 The new play, a synopsis of which has already been printed by The Advertiser, gives Miss shannon and MT. Kelcey better opportunities to display their gifted talents than any play they have presented in Montgomery, They simply held the mirror up to nature and took the audi ence into the real every day life of the scenes they undertook to delineate.
 The supporting company is excellent. the scenery Is adequate and the gowns of Miss shannon caused many feminine thrills.
 The audience wa slavish in its appre- citation of the artistic performance and 1t was unstinted in its applause. which was not of the boisterous kind, but the approval that comes from gentle folk.

STATE THREATENS FAIR
TAX COMMISSIONER WAS ABOUT
 TO CLOSE PAID SHOWS.
Trouble Was About State Taxes for the Shows, But Directors Go on Guarantee and Matter
 Blows Over.

It developed yesterday afternoon at the meeting of the Board of Directors of the Street Fair. Association that the
 management of the Fall Festival is at lcggerheads with the State government concerning the question of whether the Fair Association should pay the same licei scs for the Street Fair shows which
 charge admission as is levied by the State for other tr6vt ling exhibitions of a similar character.
 The further fact was developed that w. M. Rlakey, Tax Commissioner of Montgomery county. who represents the State in such matters, has had numerous confer ances with the managers of the Fall Festival relative to this matter and that yesterday morning Mir. Blakey told the Board of Directors that unless the extra license representing something like $500 was paid before nightfall he. as the representative of .he State, would be compelled to close up the pay shows and thus practically close down the Fall Festival.
 This threatened continuation of the e ntrcversy which has already passed through several stages caused the mat ter to become acute and an effort was made to effect some sort of compromise. A dire;tor of the association said last night that Mr. Blakey agreed that if each member of the Board of Directors of the Street Fair Association will give his personal guarantee that the license Compromise decided that it was legiti- ma.e. he would take no further action in the premises pending a decision by the Board of Compromise. There was a hur- ried conference of the directors which resulted in each member of the board pl :dging himself to meet the license if 1t was demanded by the State.
 sists of Governor Jelks, the Auditor, Hon. Thomas l.. Sowell, and the Attorney General, Hon. Charles c. Brown. Neith- CT of these State officials is in the city and none of them except Governor Jelks is expected here during the week.
 The Board of Directors of the Fall Festival yesterday afternoon drafted petition to the State Board of Compro- mise asking to be relieved from the li- claims should be imposed on the shows.
 The decision of the Board of Compro- mise will be awaited with the greatest interest as 1t involves a question of far reaching importance. Several towns in the State are preparing to have Street Fairs. Many of the shows now in Mont- gomery will go from here to a Street Eufaula. If the Board of Compromise decides that these Street Fair shows are subject to regular show licenses it will have the effect of closing down some of the Street Fairs that are advertised by other towns in the State.
 A committee consisting of Colonel A. J. Miller and Mir. R. F. Scott was ap- pointed by the Board of Directors to look after the interest of the Fall Festi- val in connection with the extra license.
 A committee was appointed by the board to arrange for the removal of the wire walkers exhibition outfit from Dex- ter Avenue to Commerce Street. This committee consists of Messrs. White and Tullis.

NEWWAR ON BULL FIGHT FAIR ASSOCIATION DON'T WANT PARADE IN THEIR DISTRICT. They Decide to Appeal to the Chief of Police Against Matadors in
 Carriages and Possibilities
 Are Renewed.

Once again the Street Fair Association is after the bull fight management. Re- newal of the hostilities which have exist ed between the arrangements of the two concerns of late came yesterday after noon at meeting of the Directors for the Fair Association.
 This. time it is the street parade of the bull fight which is found objectionable. Not that the parade in itself is objec- tionable. but the fact that it meanders through the fair district is the casus belli. .-.-.
 The parade consists of a band of sev- eraI pieces, half dozen boys with ban ners and signs and a carriage in which four swarthy noblemen of Mexico recline languidly while they puff cigarette smoke at the showssin the Festival district.
 The Directors, in their meeting. de- clared against the parade as far as en- tering their district is concerned, and they decided to appeal to the police.
 Pursuant to this decision a committee was appointed to call on Chief Gerald to see if the ordinances relative to vehicles driving into the district cannot be en- forced. If the ordinances are enforced there will be no more bespangled mata- dors and picadors riding in carriages in the vicinity of the. Festival shows.

 Recently MT. Anderson has received calls from several churches in various parts of the South. but has declined each one
 His decision to remain in Montgomery will be gratifying to the entire city for he is one of the most popular ministers in Montgomery.

L. & N. PAYS $23,3OO TAX AGENT JONES GIVES GOOD LY SUM UNTO STATE. The Tax Money is for Property of the Road in Blount, Baldwin,
 Butler, Cullman and
 Limestone Counties.

J. B. Jones, Tax Agent of the Louis vile and Nashville Railroad Company, yesterday paid nearly $23,30o taxes into the State Treasury through the Audi tors office.
 This railroad company Is perhaps the largest single taxpayer in the State, being required to pay something over $200, 900 yearly in State, county and municipal taxes. The State taxes are paid by counties in monthly installments, begin ming alphabetically. As the railroad tra- verses about twenty-five counties in the State, it will be seen that it owns vast interests in Alabama.
 The amounts hy counties paid into the Treasury by MT. Jones were as follows: Blount County, $6.G0520; Baldwin County. $3, ,526. .4S; Butler County, $5.535.09; Cullman County. $3,2ls0i; Limestone County, $4,34SS0.
