There is a report in London to the
effect THAT terms OF peace with the
Beers practically has been concluded.
While this lacks confirmation. yet
there have been indications for the
last week that the Beers have come to
recognize the hopelessness of their
struggle. Their whole country has
been laid waste, thousands of their
young men slain, and their women and
children are starving. Besides this
their resources must be exhausted. II
is beyond their power to make an eff
iective resistance much longer, and il
they have recognized the inevitable
their surrender will carry with il
nothing OF disgrace.

CHANGES COURT DATES
FEDERAL JUDGE JONES ISSUES
AN ORDER.
Will Begin in Birmingham in
November and in Montgomery
in December - Date For
Huntsville Unchanged.

Judge Thomas G. Jones of the United
States District Court yesterday issued
an order. changing the dates for the open
Ing of his court both in Birmingham
and Montgomery.
The order was mailed yesterday to the
Clerk of the Court in Birmingham. 1t
postpones the regular September term OF
the District and Circuit Courts of the
Southern Division of the Northern Dis
trict of Alabama, which is held in Birm-
ingham. until Thursday. November 6. and
directs that the lawyers, witnesses and
Jurors be notified not to attend the
birmingham court in September, but 10
come in November instead
Judge Jones said in reference to the
postponement of the court tFat it was
done on account of September being a
very trying time to hold court in Birm-
ingham and the postponement was order
ed after consultation with the members
of the bar of that city.
The Huntsville court will be held at the
usual time in October
Holding the court in Birmingham will
result in a change of time for holding the
United States Court in Montgomery
Formerly this court has been held i~a-
ginning the first Monday of November
but the Birmingham court will at that
time be in session this year. The court
will convene in Montgomery in Deem
Der.
Judge Jones is at present working on
big pile of bankruptcy and equity cases
and is also busy making file of the
records of these cases. He hopes to get
through with this work sometime IN Sep
tember and then he will take vacation
of two weeks, returning to open court
in Huntsville in October.

RURAL MAIL ROUTES
In THE FIFTH DISTRICT
Congressman Thompson Tells Of the Results Accom-
pliShed in That Direction.

Colonel c. w. Thompson of Tuskegee,
the member of Congress from the Fifth
District, was in the city Sunday night,
going on to Wetumpka yesterday morn
ing, where he spoke in the prosecution of
his canvass for denomination to succeed
himself in Congress. His voice was
husky from constant speaking, but with
that exception he was in-excellent health
and very confident of his success in the
primaries.
He Is especially pleased over his success
in providing so many free rural delivery
mail routes in his District and in pro-
vlding such an increase of mail facilities
in localities where mails have not been
delivered more than once or twice a week
in the past.
When seen by an Advertiser represen-
tative and asked about the rural free de-
livery routes he had established, he said
Yes. l am especially gratiied at be-
ing able to secure so many free delivery
routes in the rural portions of my Dis
trict, and am pleased also to find that
the people are delighted with the i'm
proved service and are coming to fully
appreciate it's great benefit and import
ance. l had one of my constituents to
say to me day or SO ago that he could
not now do without the daily mail de-
livery, and that he had never really
known what it meant before as a conven-
fence and time-saver.
Before leaving Washington. 1 secured
the order for large number of routes
in the Fifth District for the free rural
delivery and l have recently been over a
route with Mr.. Brannon. the Inspector,
from Wetumpka which will soon go into
effect and will supply mail to 200 of the
best families in Elmore County; one from
East Tallassee. one from Eclectic. which
will be in operation on the 18th of this
month.
In Tallapoosa County two routes from
Camp Hill, two from Dadeville. which
will go into effect on the LIST of October,
and two from Alexander City which are
in operation and which are giving the
greatest satisfaction.
"1n Clay County. one route from Hol-
Inns, two from Ashland. TWO from Line
vile. which will go into operation on
September l.
In Macon County there are two routes
already in operation from Tuskegee and
two from Notasulga, which are daily sup
plying mail to hundreds of the best fami-
lies in that section. all of whom are en-
thusiastic in their praise of the service.

COMPLAINS OF LAKE
OF BOARD CALLED
TO BLOEM FONTAINE.
A. j. Brooks Says Lake is in I'm
sanitary Condition and Wants
It Cleaned-Report on
Poor House.

A complaint from A. ]. Brooks, con-
corning the unsantary conultiOn of the
lake at Bloem Fontaine Park was re-
ceived yesterday by the Montgomery
County Board of Revenue, but no action
was taken.
DIR. r. N. Pitts of the County Board
of Health, accompanied Mr.. Brooks to
the meeting of the Board of Revenue ana
stated that something should be done in
reference to the unSanitary condition OF
the lake.
Mr. Brooks said his wife is now i'll with
malarial fever and he, himself. is barely
able to walk around on account of fe-
yer which he has in the past few weeks
contracted. Several days ago Mr.. Brooks
said he called the attention of the Board
of Health to the condition of the lake and
an investigation proved that the lake Is
filled with dead trees and other vegetable
matter which Is said to be productive of
malarial germs.
The County Board of Health was pow
erless to act on account of lack of funds
and it was suggested to Mr.. Brooks that
he bring the matter to the attention of
the Board of Revenue.
County Attorney John G. Finley was
present at the meeting of the Board of
Revenue. He said that he knew no law
by which the Board of Revenue could
take up such a matter and II was his
opinion that any prosecution which might
be entered would have to be instituted by
the Board of Health or a private citizen.
Mr.. Brooks said that If the Board of
Health did not have the lake cleaned he
would take the matter to the courts. Mr..
Brooks resides within a stones throw of
the lake.
Complaints were also filed with the
Board of Revenue concerning the condi-
ton of the Jones slough bridge and the
Barnes slough bridge on the Carter Hill
read. The Board decided to have them
repaired Immediately. The contract was
awarded to ]. w Philer. the County
agreeing to furnish the lumber
The monthly report Of the condition
of the County poor house was read. The
report showed that at present there are
siXty-four inmates in the poor house. Du-
ring July there were eleven admissions,
seven discharges and four deaths.

QUESTION OF PENSIONS.
Not Intended That Confederates
Shall Be Benefciaries.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE Commission
err of Pensions today gave out the state
uent that an erroneous impression seems
to exist among many ex-Confederate SOL
diers regarding the Interpretation to be
put upon the recent act Of Congress re-
lieving Union soldiers of disabilities for
having previously served in the Confed-
crate army.
The idea seems to prevail that under
this act the government is authorized to
pension ex-Confederate soldiers and the
result is that the pension office is being
deluged with applications from the form
err wcarers of the grey. The Commits
sioner explained that the law in question
does not contemplate the pensioning Of
ex-Confedorate soldiers hut that 1t was
designed solely TO relieve the disability
which so long existed in the case Of men
who We're impressed into the Confederate
service and later Joined the Union army.

II hear nothing but praise of the new

ton wagons which the carriers have
nearly all secured. are not only pro-
lection to the mails and facilitate the de-

THE WHITE REGISTRATION
Amounts to More than One Hundred

TIE Advertiser presents below the reg
istered vote of sixty-four of the sixtysix
counties of the State. The two counties
not heard from are Cherokee, and
Winston. The registration of the other
counties foots up 179,13i The two other
counties have, according to the census
of 1900, 5.76S white voters. About 50 per
cent of the white vote has registered and
taking that proportion for Cherokee and
Winston, would be about 400. and this,
added to the other, would make total
registration of 1924. The registration
of negroes will not foot up over $500, so
that we have a registered white vote in
Alabama of at least $4,000 The tables
