In the six day bicycle races the pace tells terribly at the end. Man after man falls out exhausted. The victor wabbles weari1y over the line. In the business race it's the same. Man after man drops out exhausted. The success ful man is often dyspeptic, unable to enjoy success. When the stomach is diseased there is not enough nutrition assimilated to sustain the body and re- pair the daily waste of tissues. The result IS weakness, tending to collapse.
 Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It enables the perfect assimilation of food by which the body is built up with sound, healthy flesh.
 VI have taken one bottle of Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for indigestion and liver complaint" writes MT. C. M Wilson, of Yadkin College, Davidson Co.,, N C. uHave had no bad spells since commenced taking your medicine-in fact have not felt like the same man. Before took the Golden Medical Discovery could not eat anything without awful distress, but I can eat anything wish without having unpleasant feelings Last summer our baby was teethng and was so poor he was almost skeleton.

Trouble About Failure of Contractor
 to Finish Court House.

Florence, August 25.-(Special)-w. W. Collins, representing the Fidelity and De- posit Company of Baltimore, Md, left today for Baltimore, after conference with the probate judge and County Con- missioners of Lauderdale County in re- gard to the court house which has been completed by the bond people for the contractors, Nicely 6 Smith. The county officers claimed $4000 forfeiture under the contract with Neely & Smith for extra time over and above contract time at $10 per day, together with rent, salary of watchmen and other expenses incurred by the failure of the contractors to complete the court house in time. MT. Collins and the officers were unable to arrive at an equitable settlement and the matter will probably be settled in the United States Court. The court house is finished and cannot be occupied until some settlement Is arrived at The building is one of the handsomest structures of the kind In North Alabama, and cost, furnished, about s5O.o00.

TUSCALOOSA WILL HAVE THE NEW ROAD Engineers Have Selected Route
 for Searcy Branch TAPS GREAT COAL REGION Completion of the Road Means Build ing of Furnace at Tuscaloosa
 and a Large Amount of
 New Trade.
TAPS GREAT COAL REGION

Tuscaloosa, August 25.-(Special)- )-The engineering crops of the Southern Rail- way, who have been in the northern por- ton of the county and returned yester- day stated that they had found a route for the proposed extension of the Searcy branch of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad to the coal fields of Tuscaloosa County.
 About year ago J. Lodge, representing the Central Iron and Coal Company of New York, came to this place and began purchasing mineral lands for his com pany in this county. When they had finally opened their mine at Searles, few miles beyond the terminus of the Searcy or Tidewater branch of the Mobile and Ohio, they began to beseech the officials of the road to extend this road to their mine and would have had the road built had the Mobile and Ohio not been pur- chased by the Southern. When the sale occurred 1t became necessary to begin over again and finally about three weeks ago a party of fourteen members of the engineering corps of the Southern went into the field to select a route for the proposed extension which will put Tus- caloosa in touch with her own coal fields and also give railroad connection with the thriving town of Brookwood in this coun- ty, whose trade now goes to Birming ham and Bessemer.
 Will Not be Expensive.
 The members of the party who returned to the city yesterday stated that the new route found by them will not be a very expensive one, as the maximum grade will be one per cent. MT. Lodge has said that the building of this road will mean the building of furnace in Tuscaloosa by the Central Iron and Coal Company, which he represents here The private car of Chief Engineer Wells and other officials of the Southern is expected here today or tomorrow, when 1t is said the question of building the extension will be definitely settled.
 Work has begun on the building of the Elks' Fair Carnival to be held here in October. The fair will be held on the Wa ter Tower block, some distance from the public square. and promises to be very successful one indeed. John G. Brady, secretary of the local lodge of Elks. has general management of the fair.

Amendments May be Offered.

However this action by the committee on "harmonies'' does not necessarily mean that important amendments may not be offered. Under the rules of the convention, the whole instrument Is now subject to amendment and 1t is feared that many delegates will return to the convention with a pocket filled with amendments, suggested by his crossroads and other friends. The suffrage plan is not yet to the liking of many delegates and attempts are to be made to have cer- tain sections changed. Delegate Burns of Dallas still insists that llegitimates should not be permitted the privileges of the ballot, and he will make another fight to get such an amendment adopted. Captain Burns Is a game fighter, and he may succeed with his amendment, which he says will put a large per cent of the negroes out of the voting business.
 There is a strong sentiment in the con- vention for a clause that no negro shall hold office in this state, and Delegate O'Neal of Lauderdale has declared that he will champion such an amendment upon his return. This may bring out long fight. With these may come num- Der of other amendments to prolong the final session of the convention.
