Going to Selma.

Colonel Harvey F. Jones, Back Tax Commissioner for the State, has written ex-Back Tax Commis ssion Bamberger that he would arrive in Selma some time this week. When he comes 1t is thought that he will appoint MT. Bamberger's success sor MT. A. E. Baker. Sr., has been suggested as Mir. Bamberger's success sor MT Baker would give general sat isfacti ,n not only to the State, but to the business men of Selma. For twenty years he was cashier of the Commercial Bank and he is well liked by every body. It is more than probable that Colonel Jones will offer the appointment to MT. Baker.

Hired Special Train.

Saturday last MT. Ed Eliasberg, who had been in New York on business. was telegraphed that his little girl was Ill. He hurried home as fast as he could, but missed connection in Montgomery. So anxious was he to be at the bedside of his little one that he got a special train in Montgomery Sunday and came home as fast as steam could bring him. The little child Is a great deal better this morning, and Is now thought to be out of danger.

Judge Dowdell Denies humor.

Lafayette, Feb. 10.-(Special )-Regard- ing the report that has gained currency that Associate Justice J. F. Dowdeli of the Supreme Court would resign to enter the practice of law Birmingham, an Advertiser representative at Lafayette, Judge Dowdelrs home, asked the Judge if 1t were true. The emphatic answer was given that no such idea had ever entered his brain and he had never given out anything that would lead any one to such a conclusion. The Judge Is making a fine record on the bench and 1t is hoped by his friends, and with confidence. that Judge Dowdell will be a candidate to succeed himself. The friends of the dis tinguished jurist at his home town could not believe any such runor and they are glad that he denounces 1t as false.

THREATENS TO KILL HIMSELF
Lincoln Man Writes Friends of In
tentiOn to Commit Suicide
In Omaha.


Chief of Police DonRhue yesterday re-
ceived a telegram from Lakeside, Neb., re-
questing him to find a certain C. l. Smith
Of Lincoln, who, in a letter to his friends
there, said he had caught the smallpox in
Omaha, that it would prove fatal and that
he intended to commit suicide. Chief DON
ahue directed the police to investigate the
report and endeavor to secure trace Of
Smith.
Further Information showed that Smith
had bought a carload Of horses in the vi
cinity of Grinnell, Ia. and accompanied
their shipment to South Omaha. After SELL
ing his horses he wrote letters to a number
Of his friends in Nebraska, and also to his
family in Lincoln, stating his intention to
commit suicide and the first letter to reach
its destination was the one sent to Lake
side. Later Information from Lincoln
stated that $500 had been received from
Smith by his family, along with the state
ment that he Intended taking his life. All
Of these letters were dated March 13.
The $500 sent to his home is believed to
be only a part Of the money received by
smith from the sale OF the carload Of
horses. as marketable horses from Iowa are
valued at from S125 to $40 each, and a car
load would represent about twenty horses.
According to this. the police say, Smith
should have netted something like 81, 500.
No trace of Smith has been found. He is
not at the pesthouse. 1t is possible that he
may have caught the smallpox and is, BY
the aid of friends, keeping the fact and his
whereabouts concealed.
