JUDGE LENIENT TO FoRGER.
Gives Him Short Sentence in Consider
alton of Family.

Judge Brooks yes terday sentenced
Ed James to serve six months at Still
water for the crime of forgery. When
James appeared in court for sentence
he was accompanied by his wife and
two children and the scene was an af-
fecting one. AS James stood before the
bar to receive his sentence Judge
Brooks said:
Il understand you have never been
convicted or accused of crime before
and for that reason it is within the
power of the court to send you to the
reformatory, but if you go there your
term of Imprisonment will be much
longer than 1t can be made if you are
sent to the penitentiary. OF course
the odium of a penitentiary sentence
is much greater than that of a reform
atory"

BILE" replied the prisoner.
Very WELL" said the court, 81 Will
send you there. but I want you to I'M
derstand that 1t is entirely out of sym
pathy for your little family that such
leniency Is shown"

RICHARDSON ON ROADS.
Eighth District Congressman Speaks
 at Florence,

Florence July H.-(SpeciaL )-Represen- [ tives from every beat in Lauderdale County. excepting two. were present at s~a Good Roads Convention held at the .'.urt house Saturday morning and the sstihcrlng was a representative one. The fret that Judge William Richardson. the Congressman from this District. was to i''d-ess the convention, gave the occasion addel importance.
 Judge Richardson spoke for over an hour his remarks bearing principally up- on the question of road Improvement and the Brownlow bill which will come up be- fore the next Congress but he digressed long enough to give some good advice along other lines.
 The speaker said at no other time in the history of this country had the dues- ton of government aid In the construc- ton of pubic highways been so thorough iy dFcussed. While Probate Judge of Madison he had predicted in thirty-three speeches that the government would have t0 come to the relief of the people in this matter because it was impossible for them 10 build such roads as they are entitled to without some assistance from the Fed- eral government S&
 The deplorable condi ion of the roads Throughout the rural districts, he said. accounted for the tendency of the best of the population to drift to the towns and cir'es where transportation was easy and anu TUT tECthCitOOhS uCStihS III agriculture during the past de ,ade. Good roads cause churches and school houses to multiply as they are easy of access.
 Tn order to have good roads, Judge Richardson said it was necessary to have money and the only way to get money was by taaxtion. The old system has proved a failure. The average cost to transport a ton of freight on the ordinary road is $1.25 tor i've miles: the same amount will carry a ton 250 miles by rail and 900 miles by water.
 Our govei nment is the only civilized government today which does not assist in the building of its pubic roads.
 Of the $7O0.0DO.c00 appropriated by the last Congress, 90 per e nt went to cities and towns. The South. he said, was standing at the very gateway of the greatest development the world has ever seen. She has just got her engine of progress on the track since 1880. He pre- dicted that 1t will not be more than ten years before the Southern mills are con- stunning all the cotton grown in her fields and that the Tennessee Valley will be the most densely populated region outside the great centrs of population. Along with this great progress, he said, we should carry along the improvements or the public roads, where 75 per cent Of the commerce of the world starts.
 Judge Richardson decried most earnest ly the folly of letting the old cry of Estates rights" interfere with our re-

eeivlng our share of the money appro- priated by the government for internal improvements.
 At the conclusion of his address Judge J. J. Mitchell proposed a resolution of thanks to Judgs Richardson for the great inter est he had manifested in the subject of improvement of public roads and for his able and instructive address. The res- olutlon was unanimously adopted.
 Other resolutions adopted by the con- ventlon were as follows:
 Resolved-That we believe 1t is just as important that the national government assist in the improvement of the common highways and post roads Of the country as It is for 1t to care for rivers and har- bors. and we therefore favor Federal ap- propriation for highway construction; such appropriations to be distributed among the States and to be expended only where there Is State appropriation, or a County appropriation equal to the amount apportsoned by the general gov efnment; provided, that no State. or the counties of ts.e State shall receive m aid of road construction, out Of any money appropriated by the general government. a greater portion of the total amount ap- propriated than the population of the State bears to the population of the Uni ted States.
 Resolved, That this convention heartily endorses the appropriation carrying gov erpment aid to building public roads and requesting our national and State Officials to enact such laws as shall cause the Skc te of Alabama to receive its full share.
 Resolved That we request our repre- sentatives in the Legislature to pass such laws as will work the roads of Lauder dkle County exclusively by taxation. Such laws to be submitted to the voters. fYr ratification or rejection.

What's in a Namep

It has been brought to the notice of the police department that certain so-ca.led ''soft drinks" which are sold extensively by small grocers on the outskirts and in the suburbs of the city, have very en- livening effect upon the consumers there- of The beverage Is put in regular beer bottles and labeled either Hop or 'Lagarina" and is said to taste very much like beer and produce practically the same effects.
 Pending an analysis of both the Hop and "Lagarina" the authorities have tried to test it with an alcohoimeter but the ln- strument failed to show the presence of any appreciable quantity of alcohol. It is thought that sugar and glycerine have been used to disguise the presence of the alcohol and that regular chemical anal ysis will be necessary in order to decide the question. The goods are manufac- tured and sold by out of town dealers and the authorities have determined to put a stop to the sa.e of it. Competent evidence can be secured upon which to base prose- cution.

 The long silence that has marked and emphasized the absence of Mir. Many. the conthractor for the new city muiiding has at last been broken. and that in a rather unexpected manner. This morning Mayor Atkins received a formal demand from Mir. Manly to know when the the city would be prepared to rectify It's breach of the Market House Contract" and state ment that he, Manly, had been waiting for the bond since June 2nd last. There yas also a demand that copy Of the bonds be sent him.
 Under the direction of the Mayor the City Attorney has answered MT. Manly s communications and doubtless some thing will be doing in the matter of the new building within a short time.
 The City Attorney stated to your corre- spondent this morning that the admin istration was very much surprised at MT. Manly's demands as he had been sent a specimen of the bonds proposed to be is- sued and, after making one or two cor rections agreed to by the mayor, had asked that they be sent on for printing. The city had been ready to carry out all the provisions of its contract and all Its agreements with Mir. Manly to the letter and was still ready to TO so.
 It is thought that all differences can be amicably adjusted within short time and that now since the contractor has placed himself In communication with the authorities work can be resumed on the new building within short time.
