 "As a citizen I wish to go on record as resenting the implied insult thrown in the face of our teachers by this law. If the Legislature had attached fines and forfeitures to the Governor in the event of his neglecting his official duties every citizen of Alabama would have protested. Our teachers deserve better treatment than to thus be put under fines and pen alties. Nor is it needful to put them un- der such duress in any other official func- ton than the conserving of the monopo- listic privileges of these contractors.
 "A teacher who can be trusted to see and do his or her duty to the pupil and patron cannot be emancipated from penal duress in this text book matter, but must have fines hanging over his or her head It is this more than anything else that resent in this law, and hope to lift this duress from over the heads of our best class of public servants, the teachers in the schools We will also show that this law Is in restraint of the rights o1 trade. radical, revolutionary, socialistic His exceilency, 1 am sure, never did a more dangerous and indiscreet act thar when he left his executive function tC force the passage of this obnoxious law and give 1t the drastic interpretation Is. sued In the interest of the contractors tc the burdening of teachers and the loss O parents.

The Case of Castleman.

J. Woods Castleman, young man for merly in the employ of the Sloss-Shef- field Steel and Iron Company, who was arrested late last night on a charge of embezzlment from the company, made q statement last night in which he is said to have partially admitted that he had taken checks as accused. Today he re- mained silent when questioned, but the detectives are working hard on the case and have located places where the young man spent money recklessly. He was ar rested while in company with a woman of i'll repute. The embezzlement alleged will foot up into the thousands, perhaps $8,000.
 It seems that the young man, among other duties, had to destroy commissary checks in the general offices of the Sloss- Shefield Steel and Iron Company. St is alleged that he would have a large amount monthly from these checks and then sell them again, the company losing on them by their being traded for twice.
 A few weeks ago Castlean was relieved of work by the Sloss-Shefiield Company. An investigation was made after a re- port was made to the company that a large batch of commissary checks had been found in an old mattress@in a board ing house of the city, and ity was then ascertained that there had been some sort of a leakage in the operations of the office. The discovery of the old cheeks was accidentally made by an upholsterer. who reported the matter. Castleman is under 25 years of age. He has been liv- ing a high life in the last few months, and statement is made that her spent as high as $1OO a day for awhile.
 He is well connected and efforts are now being made to settle the entire mat ter. Other arrests will be made in this case

Switzerland's Hotel Business

A Swiss statistlcian has published an interesting computation on the Swiss ho. tel-keeping industry. according to which the total earnings of the hotels in SwItz. erland vary between s17,OOO,OOO and s2o.OOO, . OOO per annum, the greater portion-ahon, lS'OOO'OoO-being contributed by foreign visitors.
 The profits of the Swiss innkeeper are however. alleged by this writer to be com. paratively small. Out of the above total ne says. they have to pay annually from $1o,OOO.0OO to $12.O0O,OCo for provisions sal aries and so on, and allow $6, 900, coo for in- terest on the original capital. repairs and the like.
 It is also interesting to learn that the Swiss hotels. In the height of the season. employ an army of about twenty-scven thousand persons. including nearly fifteen thousand women. It Is estimated that the owners of the railways steamers and mail coaches pocket between $3,OO.OOO and @,OO0.o00 a year. practically all of which is contributed by foreign visitors.

of refining. before the glucose has reach ed the stage of perfection that makes it a marketable commodity
 An ordinary kernel of corn, as 1t comes to the laboratory, contains germ. or embryo plant, surrounded by a mass of cells containing albuminous matter and separate grains of starch. These ele- ments, which practically nourish the lit- tie plant germ somewhat as chicken Is nourished in an egg, are really the ele- ments of a perfect food, proteine-of which the white of an egg is familiar example-containing sugar. starcn and fats Their presence Is what gives the kernel of corn 50 many commercial pos abilities. And without going into the technicalities of production-steep tubs, rolls, shakers, filter presses, starch runs, or what not-the gradual evolution of these different products is an interesting example of the power of modern chem ical mechanism to extract a long list of unexpected utilities out of a single nat ural substance. Sun. wind rain. air and
 soil store up these various utilities, and modern humanity is always making new | quicker and better ways of extracting | and applying them.
 When the kernel of corn begins going through It's transformion processes one
 of the first results is a separation of the germ. The germs. separated and ground, are reduced to pasty mass, which Is subjected to pressure and so divided into clear. yellowish oil on the one hand and dry compact cakes on the other The
 oil Is used in the manufacture of soaps
 or Is vulcanized mixed with bits of cork.
 and so transformed into rubber mats or
 bicycle handles. The dry cakes are
 largely exported as cattle feed, the amount of proteine which they contain making them both healIhful and nutri- tious. What Is left after the germ of the corn has been extracted continues on its
 way to the final and vastly more impor- tant products, starch and glucose.
 But before the corn becomes starch
 two other byproducts are produced, the first being corn bran. or wet feed" as 1t is called in factory practice, and the second gluten meal Both of these
 products are cattle foods the gluten
 being particularly rich in albuminous substances, and used. for example. for mixing with the regular food of a dairy farm in order to improve the quality and quantity of milk. Gluten. indeed, which in dried form becomes gluten meal. and so goes to the cows.

Dr Dickerson Answers Governor.

Rev. Dr. A. J. Dickinson, pastor of the First Baptist Church of this city, who Is prosecuting the test case brought in connection with certain features of the uniform text book law, In answer to an interview of Governor Jelks in reference to the operation of the law gives out the following statement:
 "The figures of the saving to patrons of the State schools on text books made up by the Governor, do not tally with actual experience. bought books at less than depository prices, while friend of mine ordered his from Cincinnati, and after paying express charges saved over 10 per cent. on depository prices MT. Goodloe, of Sumter County. writes me that the depository prices under the State law are 10 per cent. higher than those hitherto prevailing under the county uni formity and that, too, when heretofore 6 per cent. larger commission was allowed the retailer or depositor. Of course. there will be a saving in cost of text books to the people here and there In isolated communities where conditions Of trade are abnormal. But I am sure these contrac- tors are getting more for their books al the factory than they ever did before.
 The amount saved to the people Is less than it has cost them in the usual and competitive conditions of trade to place and distribute their books. Any publisher will give you from 20 to 70 per cent. on of the retail price if you will dispense with the need of the pobber and retailer and soliciting agents. Under the law the State through Its public school service has done this for these publishers but hal not received anything like quid pro quo for such service. The law sells 10 th' contracting publishers the school service of the State. and gives the price palo not to the teachers, whose duties arr thereby increased, but to the patron. m teacher Is the victim in the law.

FLORAL PARADE.
Interesting Feature of Tuscaloosa
 Street Fair.

Tuscaloosa, Oct. 16.-(Special)-New has been received here from Healing Springs, Miss, of the marriage of Wesley Winsette and Miss Sarah D. Humphrey Of Tuscaloosa county. The bride was an attractive pupil at the Alabama Central Female College last session and has a number of friends here who wish for her every happiness.
 Yesterday marked another successful day for the Street Fair, it being Pickens and Greene county day. The principal feature of the day was the flower parade at o'clock in the afternoon There was an immense crowd on the streets, the largest that has gathered since the be- ginning of the fair. The parade was a great success and a number of beauti- fully decorated traps were in the line of march. In rendering the decision. the judges decided in favor of Mrs. A. M. Mo Gehee's trap and she was awarded the nrst prize. She was accompanied by Mrs. w. A. Collier The trap was beautifully adorned with yellow chrysanthehums ana yellow harness was used on the black horses. The ladies were attired in black costumes. with black picture hats. The second prize was awarded to Mrs. Sidney x. Leach who was accompanied by Miss Mary Howell Majors. The trap was com pletely hidden with red chrysanthemums. The ladies wore white gowns with red mats and made most effective picture.

LOVES SORROW.

Of Fate I prayed nor Fortune nor yet Fame. Grant me but Love!" I cried, ''I ask no more, Lifes board is Bounty's feast with his rich store.'' And ere my prayer was uttered, To! one came Whom I thought Love, for he did bear Loves name, And sue in speech of Loves divinest lore, Nor once betrayed the cunning mask ne wore, Revealed at last in Trials crucial flame! Then bitterly to Fate did complain: "Oh. cruel thou my dear desire tu cheatr' And Love 1t was. not Fate who answer ed me: Thou are unscathed-a noble scorn shall free Thy spirit from the snares of base de- ceit, 'Tis Love who weeps the treachery and the pain!''

.BYPRODUCTS OF CORN
THINGS MANUFACTURED INCL DENT TO PRODUCTION OF
 GLUCOSE.
Cattle Feed, Oils, Grape Sugar and Other Important Commercial Substances All Made of this
 One Cereal.

Although health foods for humanity are much more widely advertised. there are also what might be called, without any great stretch of the imagination, health foods for animals. Some Of the most important are byproducts in the series of chemical operations that is con- stantly turning millions of kernels of corn into starch and sglucose-the first product serving humanity to the tune of many thousand tons yearly. in the preparation of it's cotton goods, and the second eventually reaching the human stomach, in even larger quantities, through the pleasant medium of confec- tionery or soda water. An ordinary ear of corn contains many industrial possi- biilties-even including corn cob pipes. and <SAdlcanized rubber mats for libraries and public buildings-many of which have been developed only during the last two decades. On their commercial side the total value of these products has been recently illustrated by the forma- ton of a highly-capitalized combination of the corn product interests. while. on the theoretical side, the subject forms an important field of study in theoretical laboratories.
 Important as are the byproducts ob- tained from corn. the ultimate products of the corn kernel, starch and glucose, are by far the most important. Glucose. a thick, colorless syrup, Is indeed very generally known. and has a very Hide served popular reputation as an adulter- ant As a matter of fact, 1t Is not, broadly speaking, an adulterant at all, but a valuable commercial agent which Rccomplishes certain ends In candy-mak- ing and in the preparation of soda foun- tain syrups without being in the least injurious. Vast quantities of 1t are used yearly in making confectionery, pre- serves and fruit syrups. partly because 1t Is more economical than ordinary sugar, but quite as much because 1t Is better adapted to the purpose. As foundation material 1t takes any flavor success fully; but. unlike sugar, 1t doesn't crys- talize out afterward, and the confection- cry will therefore keep longer in it's original condition. The objection most commonly brought against glucose. that a mineral acid is used in producing it. is altogether irrational. The actual amount of acid is not more than one pound in a thousand. and even this small amount must be quite neutralized, and so got rid of, by the very process

 All these products are made by chemi- cal reactions first carefully studied on a small scale in theoretical laboratories and then applied on a larger one in big manufacturing plants. Grape sugar. so- called from its general resemblance to the sugar sometimes found on the ex- terior of dried grapes, is an ideal fer menting sugar, and Is, therefore, much used in the manufacture of sparkling ales. the gases which 1t gives off during Fermentation producing the necessary sparkle better than any other agency. And corn is also largely used in the production of malt food and liquors which owe their valuable properties to maltese. or malt sugar. derived by chem- ical transformations from the starch in grains.

 A MONTH

A small bottle of Scott's Emulsion costing fifty cents will last a baby a month-a few drops in its bottle each time it is fed. That's a small outlay for so large a return of health and comfort.
 Babies that are given Scott's Emulsion quickly re- spond to its helpful action. It seems to contain just the elements of nourishment a baby needs most.
 Ordinary food frequently lacks this nourishment;S Scott's Emulsion always supplies it.
