Calhoun County Officials.

Assistant State Examiner Sedberry has filed with the Governor reports on the books, of the Calhoun County officials.
 MT. Sedberry pays a high compliment to the efficiency and good conditiop of the accounts of MT l. E. Watson, clerk of the Circuit Court; MT A. H. Shep- pard, clerk of the City Court, and Hon. E. F. Crook, judge of, probate.
 The report on the accounts of N. D. Meharg, ex-sheriff of the county, shows that he is due the State S12.10.
 The fifth report filed by MT. Sedberry upon the officials of Calhoun County Is that of D. B. Burns tax assessor. This report shows that MT. Burns, in copying the assessment books, omitted one entire page. As a result of this error MT. Sed- berry says that MT. Burns Is due the State $115 0S. He Further shows that Mir Burns made the clerical error of entering the property assessment of the Illinois Car and Equipment Company at S16,50O when the correct figures should have been S165, O00 This error went through the tax books and the company paid its taxes correspondingly.
 As result of this last named error MT Sedberry says the county is due the State s1O69 95 in taxes, and that the probate judge of the county has sent the State Auditor supplemental abstract of this amount to be charged against the tax collector of Calhoun County.

ANOTHER BIG IRON
 AND COAL COMPANY
Incorporated in New Jersey But VIII Have Main Office
 in Tuscaloosa

Tuscaloosa, March 21.-(Special) J. The Central Iron and Coal Company was incorporated Tuesday under the laws of New Jersey. The necessary papers were sent to Montgomery to be filed with the Secretary of State, and the company expects to be au- thorized to do business in the State of Alabama within few days.
 For several months the company has been buying lands in the county and securing options looking to such organization and ali the necessary pre- liminaries have been completed.
 The officers are Emil Lehman, president, and Herbert Taylor, treas urer, both of New York, ... .
 The Central Iron and Coal Company is organized for the purpose of mining coal and making pig iron and doing a general foundry business.
 The iron furnace will be located in Tuscaloosa under certain conditions. One of these is a suitable site, about which there will doubtless be little trouble, as the people will be unani- nous in the effort to assist the com pany in securing desirable property.
 The other and most important will be the building of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad to point near Searles where the company's mines are located. The latter condition is absolutely neces- sary. This is naturally the favored point, but unless there were railroad facilities between this place and the mines the company could not build a furnace in Tuscaloosa.

 The souvenir programme which will be Issued by the Elks' Street Fair will without doubt be the most artistic carnival programme ever issued in this city. It will have a beautifully litho- graphed cover and will reflect great credit upon the city and it's publishers.

STREET FAIRS.
Why They are Always Attended With
 Success Explained.

The wonderful interest created by a street fair is not easl4y accounted for Before they became as well known as now, it was thought that it was curiosity that attracted the crowds. It was supposed that the peo- pie, never having heard of a street fair and Midway, came largely to find out what sort of fair it was; but this view has been dispelled. Everybody knows what street fair and Midway is now, and, besides that, the cities that have had them once, are prepar- ing to make it an annual institution. It's invariable success is not added to Ly the element of novelty; it cannot in any sense be ascribed to newness, neither is it fad or passing whim on the part of the public. The best thought gives the opinion that IL en- joys most of it's vigor because it pre- sents to the visitor chance to com bine business with pleasure, and be- cause its amusement features are healthy and it's requirements accept able to both old and young.

TEACHERS ID GET
 LARGE SALARIES
Best Payment Ever Made by
 State of Alabama.
CHECKS ARE BEING SENT
Noted Educator Says the Examination Records Show a Wonderful lm- provement During Past Two
 Years-Other State News.

Age-Herald's Bureau, Clancey's Ho- tel, Montgomery, March 21.-tSpecial.)- The public school teachers of Alabama will receive the largest salaries in the history of the system in this State for the second quarter of the present fiscal year.
 State Treasurer Smith began sending out the money to pay the teachers this morning to the various county superin- tendants. Considerably more than $300,- 0OV will be sent out to the pay rolls for the second quarter, and it will require several days to check the amounts out to the several counties. It is not likely that the teachers will soon again draw as large monthly salaries as during the present quarter, or while the school fund will not'be decreased, the minimum length of the school term has been fixed at five months and this must necessarily cause some decrease in monthly salaries
 Better Teachers.
 Discussing the public school question this morning Prof. J. L. Dodson, who is chairman of the State board of exami- ners, said the State is now securing much more efficient teachers than during the past two years, or rather since the en- actment of the examination law. The grade of the papers first examined un- der the law during June, 1899, was very low, and the examiners were forced to issue certificates on low grades or de- populate the schools. They decidAd upon the former.
 At each subsequent examination, how ever, the papers averaged bit higher in grade, and the papers now being exam ined, according to Professor Dodson, av- craze from 35 to 50 per cent higher than two years ago. The improvement in two years has been wonderful, the third grade papers now practically equalling the second grades of two years ago.
 It may also be stated that the require ments for certificates are much higher now than two years ago. The last Leg islature so amended the examination laws as to raise the standard of prof. ciency about 25 per cent. This has not lessened the number of applicants how ever, there being about 2000 at the last regular examination.
