MAY MOVE COURT HOUSE SITE
Tuscaloosa's Temple of Justice is 100
Small.

Tuscaloosa, Oct 0.-(Special. 1.-The
County Commissioners adjourned Satur-
day afternoon until next Thursday, when
they will consider the location for the
new court house. A number OF sugges-
tions were made and 1t was unanimously
agreed that the present site is too small
James H Fits again addressed the
board in favor of the Little lot just to
the south of the present building. He
urged that a structure be built that would
last 100 years and also that the new
building be placed away from the street
so that the courts would not be annoyed
by the passers by. He is in favor of re-
tanning the present building and renting
it, after necessary repairs have been
made.
Hon. Frank s. Moody suggested that
the Washington Hotel would be a most
desirable building for a new court house
and that it could be purchased for
very reasonable sum. His idea was that
the first floor be rented out as stores in
order to bring revenue to the county.
Henry b. Foster and C. B. Werner were
asked their opinion as to the legality of
moving the court house site. They stated
that a similar case was before the
Supreme Court now and advised waiting
for the decision of the case.
News has reached Tuscaloosa of the
engagement of Miss Maude Wheeler of
Huntsville to Mr.. William E. Mathews,
Jr. For two years Miss Wheeler was a
student at the Tuscaloosa Female Col
lege and was much admired for her beau
ty of person and brightness of mind.
