Unjust Discrimination.

montgomery, Ala., Apr.i Stn. Editor The Advertiser:
 notice in this mornings paper that a resolution was offered in the City Council In favor of men and against women hold ing the pooition of Principals of Public Schools.
 Since women have given the very best results as teachers in public schools all over the United States, the public can not accept this resolution as a just move in the interest of education. without fur ther' explanation on the part of the City Council who adopted the resolution, ac- cording to the report of The Advertiser, without discussion.
 If the discipline is not as satisfactory as 1t should be in some of the schools, 1t remains to De proven that the fault lies with the sex of the principal, or is due to other reasons.
 The wholesale discrimination against female principals gives the resolution the appearance that other reasons than those published prevail.
 1t is hoped for the sake of justice that the School Board will throw further light on the subject. Mrs. G. L. Werth

Old FOUNDER coNFEssEs
AWFUL REVENGE PLANNED By
DISCHARGED EMPLOYEE,
Had Fuse Been Lighted Many People
Must Have Been Killed in
the Wreck.

Great Falls, April 16-The police be-
lieve they have unearthed a plot to
blow up the Stockhols brewery and
the Cuban saloon, adjoining buildings
OH rourth street south.
John Roberts, an old rounder, we'll
known about town, confessed in the
city Jail today that he had been ap-
preached by Ulrich Nicholson, a local
gambler, who left town a week ago,
with a plan to destroy both these
buildings with dynamite.
Nicholson, so Roberts declares, had
the explosives ready and wanted
Roberts to aid him in touching them
off where they would do the most
good.
Nicholson was formerly employed
at the brewery. Four weeks ago he
got into a row and was let out. He
is said to have made open threats to
get even.
Had the plot, as detailed by Roberts
been carried out, it could harly have
failed to entail great loss of life, as
the Stockhols brewery is a beer hall
and full of people every evening, at
which time, the story goes, Nicholson
meant to light his fuses.
Nicholson has disappeared, but a
determined search will be made for
him. Roberts sticks to his story, un-
der strict cross-examination.

 Major G. T. Jones at Fort Valley. Ga, has shipped from four acres in strawber- ries this season from 1000 to 1000 quarts of berries per acre. selling from 10 cent to r 1-2 cents per quart. He pronounces the Lady Thompson the most prolific and most profitable variety, though Hoffm 4n, Excelsior and Brandywine have proved profitable.
 MT. Lewis M Rumph. Mir. E. J. Will lingham and others at Marshallville, Ga. have had a very prosperous season with asparagus. many crates selling from $ to $S each.
 This Is a crop easily grown under field culture, requiring no more labor than oth- CT field crops. It is a grass feeder. and should be literally fed with phosphoric acid. potash and nitrogen. More of this valuable vegetable should be grown.
 As a preparation for this crop and also for the strawberry, peas should be sown, not less than one bushel to the acre. and the vines allowed to dle on the ground. Besides "ddng humus and nitrogen to the land they make the soil lighter ard more porous. A heavy application of mu- riate of potash and phosphoric acid should be applied when peas are sown. This will be of lasting benefit to the future crops.

WORLD COTTON CORNER
suLLY, BROWN AND McFADDENs
 CREDITED WITH IT.
New York Hears the Rumor-Events
 on the Exchange Tend to <, Verify Them.

Special New York Dispatch. Have Daniel J. suliy, W. P. Brown and the McFaddens formed a compact for a worldwide corner in cotton? That is the question dealers in real cotton and gamblers in the options were port said 1t was true and the action of the market seemed to verify 1t.
 MT. Sully has just arrived in England and. after closing out here one of the most spectacular and profitable deals ever made in the piA With two Wall Street men prepared to lose s2bo,ooo in backing him. he made $2,030,000 without the ex- penditure of single dollar of the money guaranteed to him
 Some weeks ago. Mir. Brown, who had heen running corner in July cotton from New Orleans, came here and re- peatedly threw the market bears into panic. New high records were made for all options. After week of battle, Brown returned secretly to New Qries IS. 1t being reported on good authority tnat he wanted to be In closer touch with his financial packers.
 Just after his departure for the South he had numerous and long conferences with Mir. Sully. It is said that he saw George H. McFadden of Philadelphia and New York. and made an understanding with him that John McFadden. Georges brother. who was in Liverpool. should manage i.ie market t.-ere according to orders from Philadelphia.
 Mir Sully went abroad. ostensibly to rest. but 1t was thought strange that he should leave his family at home. Since his arrival in England the same strange movements have occurred in the market that characterized 1t when he was in cantroi of 1t here.
 N is believed in Wall Street that MT. Sully closed out his original deal as an- nounced to free himself from his Wall Street packers that he might enter into more advantageous connections with the McFaddens and Brown IL is known that the company. controls every bale of cot ton in sight.

 People in community of Fayetteville, N C., received .est month $100OO0 for let tuce. A Newborn firm sold $5,000 worth of lettuce from two and one-fourth acres. "
 Peach frowers in vicinity of Ft. Valley and Marshallville received last year from sale of peaches net more than $500,0 or a cool half million from this one indus try.
 Statement of J. s. Taylor-''Last year 100000 bales of cotton were shipped through the city (Mobile) and at $50 the total shipment represented a value of about $l0,000, GOO. This sounds we'll. but does not mean $10.OO0, 900 worth of business for Mobile. The fact is $1 per bale is a big average. The $10. 900 900 worth of cotton meant about $200,oo0 for the city. On the other hand. the Mobile and Ohio Railway shipped last year $50 car loads of vege- tables, cabbages potatoes and beans. This meant about $320,0O0 for Mobile"
