ceded her by fellow artists. The seven great chancel windows put in by the Tiffany Glass Company at St. Michael and All Angels. New York City. were colored by her, and are considered es- pecially beautiful. These, as well as this memorial window in Uniontown. which Montague Castle has so success fully executed for Mrs. Parrish, are examples Of the new American school of stained glass. In the English school which has hitherto furnished models for the limitations found in most Amer ican churches, the sections of colored glass are simply painted and fired as in china painting. the result being a certain unavoidable thinness and weak ness of color In the new American school the melted glass is run out in great sheets of crink1ed and glowing color. and these sheets are cut to find sections corresponding in tone to tho sections of the artists cartoon, thus re- producing beautifully the fold of a shining garment, the living green of a tree, or the faint purple of a hilltop To be sure, faces, hands and feet must be painted as of old, but by careful se- lection and by leading several thick nesses together for deepening shadows, every light and shade may be found, and a certain luminous quality may be secured, unobtainable in the old method. As far as the writer knows. this beau tiful window which MT. Castle has built from Mrs. Parrish's design is the first of it's kind in Alabama It is said. however. that St. Pauls, Selma, Ala, is at no distant date, to be embellished with two memorial windows from this artists designs.

A BEAUTIFUL WINDOW.
a Beautiful Memorial Church

Hn 1Tniontown, Ala. memorlai church has recently been erected com 1nemorative of one of the caneDrdke city's best esteemed citlzens, Col. A. e. Davidson, at one time Congressman of his district and widely known for his whole -souled geniality and sterlng worth.
 The building of pressed brick is gotnlc In style, with heavy cedar beams span ling the grained roof, and the "oou- work within stained a soft moss green This tint makes a pleasing setting for the gloriously beautiful chancel Win dow which dominates the whole ln- terior and seems to fill it with pull satine light The subject is The Re surrection and the inscription reads, ''To the glory of God and in blessed memory of Adele Caldwell Davidson, wife of Perkins Ellis.
 There are three divisions and in the large central panel. against a back ground of amethystlne clouds that gIeam in marvellous hues, stands the figure of the risen Lord, clothed in white raiment of a luminous pearly tint, a field of swaying lilies about His feet, and one hand raised in the bless ing of those sublime words, II am the Resurrection and the Life" The di- vine radiance, which the artist has happily set In the halo about his head, seems to have caught She glow of the rising sun only to deepen with advanc- ing day and so shine on through the twilight with heavenly light all it's own. This peculiar effect has attracted much notice.
 In the left panel one sees beyond the shimmer of lilies and the lush of green trees, the white roofs of Jerusalem girt ah0ut with pllrDlinR hills while on the right hand, in deepening violet hues against a ruddy sky is cross-crowned Calvary. All this wonder of purple and gold. glowing green and rich bronze peacock blues and resplendent pearl. might have proven but warning colors in less skillful hands. but the artist. Clara Weaver Parrish. has mingled them with gracious harmony which bears witness to that gift of color con-

HESTER BOOTH CONVICTED.
Boy Given Ten Years for Killing His
 Father

Tuscaloosa. Aug. 23.-(Special)- )-The Tuscaloosa County Court finished up its second murder case for the week last night, when Hester Booth was given ten years in the penitentiary for kill ing his father last October. It seems that Hester, boy of only 16 when the killing occurred, became incensed with his father because the latter had not turned over to him the proceeds of the sale of a COW. A dispute ensued and the next morning the boy started from Aome with his axe on his shoulder, when his father, who was cutting wood in the yard, commanded him to return to the place. Another dispute followed and the boy shot his father with a shot gun, but claimed that his father had an axe in threatening attitude when he shot. The testimony was not alto gether favorable to the boy. The jury returned verdict of guilty and fixed the punishment at ten years in the penitentiary The hoy throughout the trial was smiling and talking with ap- parently no concern, and when the jury returned a verdict he smilingly re- marked. "Oh, that ain't so long,"
 The case of the State against Will Young. a 17-year-old negro boy. for killing another negro boy over a Wo- man. is on trial today.
 Sam Yerby, a promns It and prosper ous farmer of this county, brought to this place yesterday a watermelon weighing seventy-oue pounds. which breaks the record for big watermelons raised in this county. Mir. Yerby has raised a large number of fifty and sixty pound melons this season.

 Bitten byInfected Mosquitoes.

Havana. Aug. 23.-A non-immune has been inoculated with the serum which Dr. Caldas, the Brazilian expert. al- leges to be a preventive of yellow fe- yer and has been bitten by two infected mosquitoes. The period of inoculation is from four to five days.
 Major Harvard, the chief surgeon. discussing the Caldas and other experi- ments. says that the Yellow Fever Commission and himself have carefully considered the question of applying in fected mosquitoes to non-immunes and have reached the conclusion that in view of all the circumstances, the fact that persons voluntarily undergo the experiments and also the importance of the matter from a scientific point of view, the experiments are justif1- able.
