General Fizhugh Lee will lecture Yin Montgomery some time in April under the auspices of Camp Lomax, United Confederate Veterans. The exact date Of the lecture, which will be given at the Auditorium, has not been decided but the lecture will be given on some night between the 9th and 18th of April.
 At an enthusiastic meeting of the camp last night it was agreed that all the members would do their part toward making the lecture a memorable occasion in this city.
 The matter was brought up by the re- port of Comrade Paul Sanguinettf from the Committee on Arrangements. When he made his report 1t was decfded after some discussion that the camp should ex.. tend the invitation to General Lee ana that it should further the success of the lecture in every possible way.
 Comrade Sanguinetti had also had cor respondence with the different railroads entering the city and a low special rate will be made from the towns and cities around Montgomery. It is expected that the city on the date of the lecture to hear and see the distinguished Southern CT. Camp Lomax Is confident that the crowd that night will tax the capacity of the large Auditorium.
 The Committee on Arrangements will at once fix the date of the lecture and an nounce it to the public. The proposition to bring General Lee to Montgomery was put through with enthusiasm at the camps meeting last night.

SORROW IN MONTGOMERY.
Dr. Moore Was Regarded Highly in
 This City


 General sorrow was expressed in Mont gomery when it was learned yesterday that Dr. Moore had breathed hts last at his home in Opelika.
 Dr. Moore was for four years pastor of the Court Street Methodist Church. His ministry here was crowned with suc- cess. and he gained the respect and love of the people of Montgomery, irrespective of denominations. He was a strong man, strong in his faith and strong in his love for humanity. His charity was wide and his endeavor to make the world better was constant His influence. all ways for the good, was strongly felt in Montgomery, as it was In other places preacher of eloquence and power. His sermons were brilliant, earnest and con- vincing He was splendidly equipped for his great work. It is safe to say, how ever. that he would have achieved suc- cess in any field of endeavor
 Dr. Moore served his State faithfully and we'll in the Confederate army. Short ly after the war he was made President of the Alabama Conference College at Tuskegee. Under his administration il thrived and prospered. In this position he achieved wide fame. He felt, how ever. that the ministry was his work and he soon returned to it. He filled the most important charges in Alabama fully and well. He was at his own re- quest transferred to the Tennessee Con- ference He was stationed several years at Knoxville and had other important charges.
 Several years ago he returned to the Alabama Conference and was sent to Eufaula from where he was transferred to Opelika.

RURAL FREE DELIVERY
ROUTES WILL BE PUT vN AT
 SMALLER TOWNS.
Each Carrier Must Serve One Hun dred Families in Radius of
 Twenty-Five Miles-To
 Select Routes. @t

In establishing the rural free delivery service in Montgomery it is probabla that one or more of the routes will be put on at the smaller places of the coun- ey. :.
 The establishment ot the routes will be done by Postmaster Buckley and the special agent sent out by the Post office Department at Washington. The agent is expected to arrive in Montgom-
 Tho regulations of the department re- quire that each rural carrier must sup ply hundred families. They also re- quire that each route must be twenty i've miles in length.
 A difficulty will be experienced In sup cry County with twelve and half miles radius. After leaving the suburbs or Montgomery, about two miles from the heart of the oity. the country Is very thinly settled with white people. On but few of the roads are there any large neighborhoods.
 On the other hand, the smaller towns of the county are in the center of dis tricts more or less thickly settled. It is to meet the requirements of the Post office Department from place like snow doun which is in the center of farming district, than If the route went out or Montgomery on some of the less popu- lated roads. For this reason 1t Is more than probable that the one or two Of the small towns of the county will be made headquarters for rural free delivery route.
 All of this, however. will be decided when the special agent arrives. In the meanwhile the sixty applicants are walt ing as patiently as possible Tor the naming of the carriers.

The County Physician had been making daily inspections of the Jail and every precan- ton was taken to prevent any further spread of the disease. The prisoners who first had the disease had been sent to the county pest house and had recovered sufficiently to be returned to the 5atl. Other prisoners who had been sxposed to the contagion had also been carried out to the detention camp. th, In view of all this the outbreak of yes- terday was not expected. On their rounds yesterday. which they make daily, the physicians discovered that three prisofi- CTS unquestionably had the disease. These prisoners were Mack Goss, Rob Webb and Jim Scott. all negroes
 The City Health Department was fm- mediately notified. / A sanitary inseptcor was sent around who fumigated the cells where the pJris- oners had been confined.
