of $300.000 to build and equip railroad either from Anniston. or Talladegq, Tor the purpose of developing the property. A large number of the citizens of Clay County prefer the Anniston route and say that the road can be brought to An niston if the proper effort is made to se- cure 1t.
 The distance to Anniston from Ashland Is a few miles greater than 1t 10 from Ashland to Talladega, but the cost oi construction would be less to this city than it would be to Talladega owing 70 the fewer number of difhcuittes that VIII have to be met and much richer sec, ton of the country would be traverseo
 Such progress has been made toward the early construction of this road that the Louisville and Nashville Railroad has already agreed to equip and operate it for & period of years as soon as the rails are laid. Clay County is one of the rich est in all the South in mineral wealth and this road would contribute wonder fully to the Cousty's development.

nand5 that Cal. .cu S-Ie ..l- J1Iiu eo ..-S grave under the pines, took the mother and laid her beside the man who had kept his promise to love and support her as long as life should last. She was the on1y woman in the camp and after she was dead the miners found two months old baby on their hands. and not a man in the crowd was capable of properly caring for child of such tender age. even if he could have spared the time from his work. But a good old colored woman, living near by, was em- ployed by the loggers to look after the
 infant and she cared for the baby boy with all of the tenderness of mother until the Summerfeld Orphans Home. reached out its sympathetic arms and took the helpless little orphan.
 MT. Stewart informed your correspon- dent that 1t was found, when the basket was opened that accompanied the little one that much handsome clothing were in it showing that the mother must have been a woman of refinement and taste. This is the baby for whom the woodmen of Wilcox asked the privilege of raising d few dollars and of course the privilege was granted them. The letter also in- formed Mir. Stewart that a man had shown up in camp who knew the father and mother of the little orphan in Cana da. and he has given the address of a brother of the dead man, who lives in California, and some day the baby who became an orphan so far away from the home of its parents, may be restored to those who are of blood kin to it.

Remembering the Rab.

H. H. Stewart, one of the Board of Directors of the Summmerfield Orphans Home. received a letter from the man who brought a baby here from logging camp in Wilcox County. enquiring how the little tot was getting along. and in- formed Mir. Stewart that the men in the camp wanted to raise small purse to help buy clothes for the child.
 The readers of The Advertiser will re- member the circumstances under which this baby was brought to the Home. The father and mother of the child were Canadians and came to Wilcox last fall, where the father procured work in one of the saw mill camps. Early in the fall the father was taken ill and died of pneumonia. A few days after his death a son was born to the grief-stricken widow. She was stranger in a strange land. Young, inexperienced. penniless and helpless. the kindheartsd loggsrs of the camp cared for the mother and child and contributed to their support, and purchased such delicacies as they could for those who had been bereft of their natural proteetas.S. -.-1>----. n.,

Nes Iork- April !-ter-e.s..>>-HTsAe speculation in cotton continues to broad en ana the prices are advancing day by day as result of the sensational falling off in the movement of the crop from the plantations. Replies to about 900 telegrams sent by me to every town of over 800 inhabitants in the cotton belt. reveal the fact that the exhaustion of the crop is more complete than has ever been known as this time of the year. Many towns report no cotton whatever on hand and none in the surrounding coun- try, and in the few cases where any sub stantial quantity of cotton is reported as held. it is generally stated that it is eith- CT sold or awaiting consumption on the part of the Southern mills. The prospects of complete exhaustion of the supply by or before the 1st of July seems tonight more definite than at any time previously this season.. Theo. H. Price.

Stone Cutters Strike.

The stone cutters on the Methodist and Baptist Churches struck a few days ago for an advance in wages from 40 to 10 cents an hour. It is understood that this was done in accordance with an order from the headquarters of the Union. The men, it appears. were satisfied with 4t cents an hour, but had to so out when the strike was ordered. The officials oi the Methodist Church, who have the building in hand. agreed to the raise, but discharged the stone cutters who had been at work, and sent to Birmingham and got new workmen and put them to work at the advance rate. The stone work on the Methodist Church is about finished and the few men now at work can complete 1t in two weeks.
