OPPOSES FRANCHISE
CITIZENS PREPARING PETITION AGAINST EXTENSION.
If Traction Company Does Not Build on Jefferson Davis Avenue They Want Street Railway to Have Right.

Citizens of Montgomery living on Jeffer- son Davis Avenue and Amanda Street will ask Mayor E. B. Joseph not to approve the ordinance passed by the City Coun- ell at its last regular meeting granting the Montgomery Traction Company an extension of two years fl, which to com plete its lines.
 Notice was served on Mayor Joseph yes- terday that a movement was begun to se- cure petition asking him to disapprove the ordinance and he was requested to withhold his approval until the petition could be filed.
 A citizen of Jefferson Davis Avenue said that more than fifty names had all ready been signed to the petition.
 This citizen declared that himself end others were opposed to the Traction Company delaying work on the Avenue. He said If the franchise of the Traction Company on the Avenue was revoked, as 1t would be by limitation providing the Mayor disarproved the ordinance. the Montgomery Street Railway had pledged itself to build a line on Jefferson Davis of its franchise.
 The proposition of the Street Railway, officials. according to this citizen, Is to build a line from the Court Street termi- nus along Jefferson Davis Avenue to Amanda Street, thence along Amanda Street and connecting with it's stone Street line. This would make a complete belt line beginning at Court Square.
 Citizens of South Court Street, 1t Is said will strenuously oppose the report ed scheme os the Street Railway to con- struct belt line. They declare, 1t is said, that a belt line reaching Stone Street by way of South Court would make the Court Street car line a popular route for negroes which would be objectionable
 It will be remembered that Alderman w M. Hudson. when the ordinance ex- tending the Traction Company franchise was under consideration, announced that he voted for 1t with the distinct under standing that Jefferson Davis Avenue was not included in the grant. Alderman Hudson represents the Jefferson Davis Avenue ward.
 Mayor Joseph said yesterday that the Traction Company ordinance would lie on his desk until he heard from the com plaininx citizens.

DEPUTIES TO LOOSE OUT FORCE OF FEDERAL MARSHALS
 so BE REDUCED. Order From Washington Limits Number of Field Deputies to Four and Puts Them on
 Salary Basis.

Bryan o the Middle Alabama District was directed yesterday by the Department of Justice to reduce the number of his Deputy Mar shals in the field from nine to four and to advise the four deputies who are re- tained that hereafter their compensation will be 200 a year and expenses instead of the fee basis.

 Marshal Bryan Is absent from Mont gomery, having gone to Andalusia yester- day morning on government business. Il is1 said that he favors reduction In the number of deputies and the salary basis rather than the fee system and that he endorsed the recommendation of Exam iner Finch.
 Heretofore Deputy Marshals in the field have been allowed fees not exceeding $1500 year and their expenses.
 The following are the Deputy Mar shals affected by the order from Wash ington: H. Gibson. Roanoke; H. R. Gay, Wedowee; A. B. Colquitt, Opelika; c. M. Cox, Eufaula; J. F. Green, Troy A. J. Collier. Troy; J. w. Barnes, Andalusia: J. F. Goodgame. Clanton, and $. S. Hig- gins, Montgomery.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an un- healthy condition of the Kidneys: if 1t stains the linen 1t is evidence of kidney trouble; too frequent desire to pass 1t, or pain in the back Is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.

Supre Court Decisions.

The May term of the Supreme court
opened Tuesday at Montpelier and
several important decisions were handed
down by Acting Chief Judge Tyler, who
presided in the absence of Chief Judge
Rowell who.is still too ill to be present.
Among these was the following of
interest here:
State VS.. Don A. Bisbee, adultery, from
Addison county. This case went to the
supreme court on exception by the re-
spondent on the ground that the indict-
ment for the crime of which he was
convicted did not state whether or not
the particepts criminis was a married
woman. Judgement was reversed;
judgement arrested, verdict set aside
and the respondent acquitted. Opinion
by Judge Watson.
C. h. Peck of Burlington and A. w.
Dickens of Middlebury were present ex-
pecting to be sworn in as members
of the bar but Judge Tyler stat
ed that inasmuch as their time had
not quite expired they would be ad-
mitted at an adjourned term of the
present court to be held some time the
later part of July.

n u b bard Miner Nuptials.

AT the Congregational church Tues
day afternoon, May II one of the most
interesting social events of the season
took place when Mary Alice, elder
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. G. d. Miner
was united in marriage to Mr.. Franklin
jackson Hubbard. Promptly at three
o'clock the bride entered the church on
the arm of her father to the strains of
Lohengrin's wedding, march, rendered
by Miss Lois Lyon of Vergennes, and
proceeded to the altar where she was
met by the groom and his best man, Mr..
julius A. Wilcox of Swanton, Vt. The
maid of honor was Miss Beatrice Miner,
a sister of the bride. The ushers were
Mr.. John \. Fletcher, DIR. D. c. Noble,
Mr.. Arthur j. Blackmer, Mr.. William
II. Brewster. The church was tastefully
decorated with trailing pine, palms,
apple blossoms and cut flowers. The
bride was gowned in a creation of gray
crepe de chene and wore white picture
hat She carried brides roses.
The maid OF honor's gown was white
voile with picture hat of white chiffon
and flowers.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hubbard left on the
afternoon train for a short trip and
upon their return will reside in town.
The large display of elegant gifts testi-
fed to the high appreciation in which
both are held.
