daughter of Micajah S. and Florinda F
Marter; age s years and 10 months.
Thy gentle voice now is hushed,

We have kissed thy lovely brow,
And In our aching hearts we know
We have no Frances now.

Round our dearest Frances grave;
Gone from us but leaving memory
Death can never take away.
None but parents heart can tell
How hard IL Is TO say farewell.

BEAUVOIR CLUB WILL OCCUPY
 THE FINE ROMAN RESIDENCE.

of the Beauvor Club have been several weeks looking about the city for location for a club house. There were members of the club who favored the building of fine club house in the downtown district It is said ma jority of the members, however, inclined to the idea of securing a fine old residence, re- modelling 1t and adapting it to club purposes
 The Roman residence, or the Knox place. as it is better known, is of the finest homes in Montgomery and the club mem bers looked upon it with great favor. The property has a frontage of about 200 feet on Perry Street, the fashionable thoroughfare of Montgomery, and runs nearly through the block. There is a large lawn shaded with fine old oaks and grass -bordered walks
 The house is of the ante. bellum type, having been built about fifty years ago by the late William Knox It has massive columns and is of imposing appearance. There are about twelve rooms in the house, which is one of the show places of Montgomery. having often been alluded to as the ideal house for an ex- ecutive mansion.
 The residence was purchased about six years ago from &he Knox estate by MT. Roman, who is at preSent in the East with his family
 Since the merging of the Joie de Vie Club into the Beauvoir Club the latter organization has about 15O members and the club house on Bibb Street was not adequate for it's purposes.
 The meeting of the Beauvoir Club was called last night for the purpose of considering proposition from MT. Roman to sell the Perry Street residence, and about fifty members Of the club were present.
 When the matter of new club house had been discussed a resolution was adopted au- thorizing the president and Governing Com mittee to close the deal for the Roman place upon the terms named in the proposition. The suggested Improvements to the property were also agreed upon.
 After the meeting of the club one of the members said it had been definitely decided to occupy the new club quarters not later than Oct l. probably earlier. The property will be transferred to the Beauvoir Club just as soon as the details of the transfer arranged.
 In the absence of MT. Roman from Mont- gcmery. there is no information concerning his plans He will probably build a modern resi-

NEW HAVEN STRIKE
BELIEVED THAT AGREEMENT
 WILL BE REACHED.
State Board of Mediation and Arbi- tration Has Power to Compel the Acceptance of Its Decision in
 the Matter.

New Haven, Conn.,, August "A better feeling is apparent in the big trolley strike situation tonight and the members of the State Board of Mediation and Ar bitration were so satisfied with the out look that they returned to their homes after a conference with the Mayor.
 It Is understood that if an amicable settlement by arbitration cannot be reach- ed tomorrow. the Board shall be notified. Upon such information the members will offer their services to the parties in con- fiict, and will endeavor to smooth out the trouble. If either of the parties the strikers or the company refuse to arbi- trate, the Board will proceed with an in- vestigation, as it has power to do under the law compel hearing and make a report to the Governor.
 The Business Mems Committee at their meeting this evening succeeded in clari- flying the situation greatly. It was agreed to recommend to the company and the strikers that a committee of three men who are large employers of labor in the city shall sit as Board of Arbitration and hear the company's evidence as to why twenty-seven men were discharged prior to and soon after the formation of the union. The company claims that it was because of incompetency. If the commit tee of three Is agreed upon, 1t will be left to it to decide how many of the discharg ed men shall be reinstated. As to the oth- CT demand made by the men, that their union be recognized, there is now no doubt that the company will agree to it.
 It could not be learned at the companys offices what reply would be made to the business men. If the business men are not told tomorrow, that arbitration will not be resorted to. they will decline to fur ther attempt settlement. It is then thaA the State Board of Mediation and Arbf- tration is to be called in So far as could be ascerained no strike breakers have come into the city today and no attempt has been made to run passenger cars. Travel Is by stages and carriages.
