Alabama will Be There
Attention Architects.

I beg to direct the attention of the pub lie spirited architects of Alabama to the fact that Alabama will be at the St. Louis Worlds Fair. There is crying de- mapI in the State for the Alabama BuilG- ing. The popular idea Is that this build ing should be a reproduction of the State Capitol as it stood in 1861 at that crisis in our States history when President Jefferson Davis delivered his inaugural address. The floor dimensions of the building is not to exceed seventy feet Tn length by fifty in width. two stories hisn with cross halls on lower floor and TO- tunda, dome, porch columns and steps. The contemplation is it will be wooden frame with cement exterior, plastered on interior. An inexpensive plan is desired. The plans and specifications. elevations. proportions and divisions of f1oorage into halls will be left to the suggestion of architects. The plans and specifications are to be contribution, the only com- pensation given for this service being that the names of the author of the selected plans will be placedin a conspicuous place on the walls of the building. and in ad- dition thereto he will be employed to su- pervise the construction of the building at Alabama rates for the same All pIans and specifications are to be forwarded to Director W. N. Malone of Birmingham. who will submit them to the Board of Di- rectors

E. G. Fowler, Our We'll Known Druggist, Agrees to Return Mon- CIV if Vinol Fails.

'IMany people right here in Montgom- cry are all run down, hardly able to drag about, don't know what ails them. This condttaah Is probably caused by cold. or G6akh. which is hard to cure, over work or too close confinement to busi- ness. Such people need Vinol." said MT.

Members of Parliament Having
 Good Time in France.

Paris, Nov. 29.-The members of the British Parliament and their wives who are now in France returning the visit of the members of the French arbitration group to London went this morning to Versailles where, after a dattering reception. they witnessed an inter esting series of dances of the period of Louis XIV. executed by members of the Opera Ballet corps.
 At the conclusion of the dances. a luncheon was served at which a number of short speeches, expressive of a desire for closer re- ations between France and England were made
 Delegate Miller of Canada in hls remarks referred felicitously to the bonds uniting Can ada and France. Especial importance is at tached here to Mir Miller's words because of the suggestion they contained that the British colonies might not accept the operation ot the Anglo-French arbitration treaty in questions directly affecting the colonies.
 The British Chamber of Commerce in Paris rendered the visitors a reception this after noon and tonight an lat home' was given in their honor by the Automobile Club.

For Thirteen Hours Court
 Heard Evidence.
Solicitor Dent Abandoned Con- spiracy Theory in Trial for Mur- der of Charles E. Taylor of
 Roanoke-Case Not
 Ended.

For thirteen hours yesterday Judge W. H. Thomas of the Montgomery City Court attorneys and jurors, listened to evidence in the trial of Byron Trammell. charged with murder of Charles E.. Taylor of Roanoke. in Montgomery, on the night of June a. ......
 There were no sensational developments yesterday. Solicitor Dent has apparently abandoned his effort to bring out the all legged conspiracy in the New Mabson Ho- tel between prominent men of Roanoke, and has confined his efforts to linking a chain of circumstances by which he hopes , to make clear to the jury his alleged case of conspiracy.
 Or the other hand, lawyers for Tram mel1 succeeded in following up predicates and through Deputy United States Mar shai J. F. Greene contradicted the testi' mony of State Witness J. B. Pierce.
 Through two young men of Abbevilie at last nights session of the court, the defense brought out testimony showing that just previous to Trammeil's firing or Taylor. an overt movement was made by Taylor to his hip pocket, as if to draw a pistol,
 $ The taking of evidence was long drawn out. Frequently counsel asked for time to confer with witnesses privately. More time was consumed in repeatedly going over the same ground with witnesses.
 Many Character Witnesses.
 During the earlier part of the morning session, the State rested after the ex, animation of three witnesses. The de fence then began it's case. Many charac. ter witnesses were examined. Practically all of these testified that Trammelfs character was good in the community ir which he lived: that his character fol peace and quiet was good and that Fay ior's character as a violent, dangerous turbulent and bloodthirsty man was well known
 The court first met at o'clock yester- day morning. recessing at o'clock until 8.30 o'clock, recessing again at 6:30 o'clock until 7:30 o'clock and adjourning at Il 5( o'clock last night until s:30 o'clock Mon- day morning
 Judge Thomas cautioned all the wit nesses who have not been excused by the court to be on hand in the court room promptly at the apointed hour Monday morning, the probabilities being that some of them will be recalled in rebuttal.
 The jurors were made as comfortable as possible last night in the City Courr room. This morning, on account of re- Mgious services in the City Court room the jurors will be taken into the Circuit Court room.

There are only two candidates for may or. Captain E. P. Coulter and Postmas- ter S. T. Glass. Judge J. H.

When the night session began T. J. | East was recalled to the witness stand. MT. East testified that he was the Jus tiee of the Peace who issued a writ in detinue for buggy against Taylor The buggy was never secured.
 | T. J. Carlisle of Opellka, another char | acter witness, was then called l MT Carlisle swore to Trammells good character and Taylor's bad character Captain J. F. Greene, a deputy United States marshal. testified that he knew testiged on the first day of the trial and that Pierce told him he saw Taylor strike at Trammell. He said he saw Trammell give way and assume a stopping position. Pierce said he saw Taylor throw his hand to his hip and saw Trammell fire. And I'd have done the same thing" said Pierce, according to Witness Greene.
 Pierce denied this conversation with Captain Greene when he was on the wit ness stand.
 On cross examination Captain Greene said that he had asked Pierce questions about the case three weeks before the trial. and 1t was likely that he had told Pierce that he was a friend of Trammell and would like for him (Pierce) to help the defendant.
 Captain Greene said he had taken an interest in the defense of the Trammell case.
 The witness testified that he also talked to Pierce at the last term of court. He asked Pierce was he a witness Pierce replied that he was summoned bv inc State but he was a better witness for the defense than for the State. The witness introduced Pierce to Marshal l.. J.
