THINKING MAD E EAS.
 There is a Way.

T asked Husband to get some Grape Nuts, the ready cooked food. He brought them at noon and I served a dish for dinner, for I thought what was good for breakfast was good for any other meal. Well! do you know we did not eat half so hearty of the meat potatoes, etc. after eating the Grape-Nuts. It filled that vacancy which the regular fare did not.
 The newspaper puffs' as l used to call them q know better now) are not one bit too strong-are not strong enough, for steadier nerves, better complexion, in- creased endurance and a renewed reserve fund of strength are now mine, and l cannot be too thankful. I can walk five miles without one-half as much loss of strength as when I formerly walked one.
 If, in cleaning house and numerous other back breaking tolls We women must do, we would all prepare dish of Grape-Nuts instead of the old time cup of tea to trace up on,' one would soon see the difference
 I have found, since using Grape-Nuts, that mental occupations which months ago were taxing and fatisuing, are TOW real pleasures. I can think steadily and with such ease. By putting spoonful of Grape-Nuts in a cup of good rich Postum. I have a drink fit for a King !" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

That Court of Inquiry.

aforementioned H. B. May of the End infantry, who Is now a resident of Selma, received a communication from regimental headquarters this morning, to the effect that the court of inquiry to look into the matter of Lnsubordination and desertion of the Selma Guards, and the conduct of the commissioned officers or that company. will convene in the a-mory of that company in this city on Tuesday, October 21.
 Colonel May was ordered to notify Cap tain Quinn that his officers and men would be expected to be present on that occasion. The time has been set for this command to assemble and has then been revoked so often that the officers and men of the company have come to the conclusion that the court would never be called, but 1t is predicted that 1t will be held this time and that all of the machin- cry of the law governing such matters will be put into full operation to get at the bottom of he differences existing be- tween the officers and men that brought about the trouble during the encamp- ment.
 Colonel May, as senior officer, will pre- side over the court of inquiry. It will probably sit continuously from the time 1t is called to order until all of the evil derce Is taken, and the verdict of the court will not be made public until the higher officers of the Alabama National Guard have looked over and reviewed the evidence

Sessions of North Ala
 hama Church,

Tuscumbia, Oct. 16.-(SpeciaD-Th ari- nuaI session of the North Alabama Pres bytery convened in this city last night at o'clock, in the First Presbyterian Church. There are probably twenty-five delegates present, including some of the most able and prominent ministers of this section of Alabama. They are being en- tertained by the citizens of Tuscumbia in a manner bespeaking the usual hos pitality and liberality of the people of this city
 The first session of the Presbytery was held at 8 o'clock Tuesday evening, the opening sermon being delivered by Rev. c. A .Hyland of Birmingham. at the conclusion of which the Presbytery was called to order and Rev. MT. Hyland unanimously elected moderator.
 Rev. R. J. Beattie, formerly pastor of the Presbyterian Church of this city, but now of Mississippi, was dismissed at his own request to become a member or the North Mississippi Presbytery The applications of Rev.s Graves and McDou- gall of Georgia for membership in the North Alabama Presbytery were read and favorably reported.
 The session yesterday morning was de. voted to routine work, from o'clock to II o'clock, at which time regular service was held. The sessions are being largely attended by the members of the Presby- terian and other congregations of the city. The work of the Presbytery con- cluded today.
 The negro, Sam Taylor, accused of having fired the barn of Sterling Mo Clesky, a well known young farmer liv ing a mile south of this city, last Thurs day night, in which the latter lost fine mule. a lot of provender, etc., the incen- diary appropriating the other mule of a $2O0 pair to his own use. was located yes- terday at the furnaces in Sheffield, where County Sheriff. It IS alleged that the ne gro had put out one of the mules eyes in an effort to destroy the identity oi the animal, and that the mule was found hitched in the woods on the bank of ths Tennessee River near where the fur naces are located. He was brought tC Tuscumbia yesterday and lodged in the county jail and 1t was rumored that an effort would be made last night to take him from the jail and deal with him harshly, but the plans of those who are reported to have m contemplation such revenge failed of execution.
 The first frost of the season fell here Wednesday night, 1t being a good, strong white frost The thermometer was but a few degrees above freezing point and fires and heavy clothing were in evidence It Is several weeks later than frost last year.
