 For the office of alderman-at-large six names were submitted to the voters. three of whom were to be voted for. Those recommended for these offices were Thomas I. Hewlett. Jacques Loeb. Phil McRea. c. L. Ruth, William NJ. Teague and Dr. A. St. Clair Tenille. Four names were submitted for ward aldermen. Of these Nathan Lobman, received a majority vote and the other | three will have to go through another | primary.

 every candidate for mayor received votes | and the strength of some of them was
 surprising.
 | It Is said that Thomas H. Carr and 1 Charles P. Anderson were favorites with Municipal Union voters and that votes
 were boiled for several men for mayor | whose names have mt been mentioned. | No. replied the committeeman 'Chiei

MIR. MURPHY IN NEW YORK.
Talks of "Child Labor as a National
 Problem"

Problem"
 New York, Feb. 16-((SpeciaD-Two thousand people gathered at Cooper Insti- ute last night to hear a discussion of Child Labor as National Problem" :" The principal speaker of the evening was MT. Edgar Gardner Murphy of Montgom- cry, Ala. MT Murphy did not refer es- pecially the South except to say that the pecially to the South except to say that say South could be safely trusted to deal with her own questions wisely and right ly and in her own way.
 The speaker said he was opposed to the suggestion of a Federal law covering all the States of the land. Conditions, said he, are not the same in every section of our country and a general law would therefore create nor inqualitis than 1t could possibly remove.
 He declared that each State must be permitted to frame its own law to meet its own needs. MT. Murphy showed from the figures of the census that throughout the country the percentage of increase for child labor during the past ten years has exceeded the percentage of increase in adult labor. He contended that this ten dency to give the child relatively larger share of the worlds burden Is a wrong to the child and to humanity.
 At the close of the address which was heard with deep interest, a slight disturb ance was created by a question from an intoxicated man in the audi ance. He was soon quieted and disoosed of and the meeting adjourned after the concluding address by w. H. Maxwell the SuperIn- tendent of Public Schools of Greater York.
 The meeting adopted resolutions en- dorsing the efforts being made at Albany to perfect the child labor laws of New York State

COLD WAVE IS HERE A DROP OF FORTY DEGREES IS
 EXPECTED. The Rain Checked Fall of Rivers, But No Dangerous Rise is Pre- dicted-Temperature May
 Reach 20!

As was predicted by the Weather Blu reau a cold wave struck this section yes- terday afternoon, a decided drop in the temperature following the heavy rains of the morning.
 The local temperature at a. m. yes- terday was 50. and If the thermometer registers 20 this morning, as is expected, 1t will mean a fall of 40 degrees in twen- ty-four hours. The temperature at o'clock last evening was B and it was falling fast.
 High winds prevailed during the after noon, reaching at times velocity of for ty-two miles per hour, and continuing far into the night.
 The heavy rains of yesterday were quite general over this section and will start an additional moderately rapid rise in the upper Coosa River. The present fall in the Alabama River will be checked and the river may go slightly. higher than now, though 1t can hardly reach the point attained a few days since.
 No decided rise of the river over pres ent stages is expected by the Weather Bureau.

 Prizing Open Drawer.
 Columbus. Ga, Feb. 6.-(Special) )-One of the boldest robberies ever committed in this city occurred on the steamer J. w. Hires, now lying at the wharf. yes terday afternoon or last night.
 Most of the crew were off the boat du- ring the afternoon and the first part of the night, and there was no one on board but the negro watchman. Henry Taylor, excepting during a short while in the afternoon, when Tom Dudley was there and two strange men came aboard the boat and asked about the fare to Nei's landing. MT. Dudley was shaving at the time. and the two men did not stay long on the boat.
 MT. Prong, the purser, left the boat ahout o'clock. leaving between $500 and $7OO in a drawer in the desk in the ofiice, but not in the drawer generally used for holding the cash.
 There was about s600 in bank notes, $500 of which was in gold certificates of the denomination of $2O. and the balance in other bills, besides small sack con- tainfng silver money. There was also a pistol in the drawer. but this and the sil- yer money were not disturbed
 Shortly before o'clock last night negro deck hand, Lenord Clements. came to the boat and asked if Mir. Prong was aboard On being told that he was not, he asked if any white man was aboard, and on being told there was not, he went in the cabin.
 He remained there about fifteen min utes and then came down and waited for the purser to return, which he did about o'clock. Both men went up to the cab in, and 1t was then that Mir. Prong dis covered the loss of the money. Some one had pried open the drawer as a place was found where some instrument had made a big dent. and the point of knife was found broken off in the drawer.
 The matter was reported to the police, and Detective Moore and Chief Reynolds at once went to work on the case, the first person to be arrested being the deck hand. Lenord Clements.
 A negro boy was also arrested as was Emma Lowe, a negro woman, who the police think had some connection with the crime. There Is no positive proof

On the other hand the saloon men are quietly at work and do not have much fear of prohibition carrying. The dispen- sary movement, which started up briskly for a while. is now a dead issue.

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble
 And Do Not Even Suspect It
Permitted
 Results to Follow

It used to be considered that only urfn- ary and bladder troubles were to be traced to the kidneys. but now modern science proves that nearly all diseases have their beginning in the disorder of these most important organs.
 Therefore, when your kidneys are weak or out of order, you can understand how quickly your entire body is affected, and how every organ seems to fail to do its duty.
 If you are sick or "feei badly" begin taking the great kidney remedy. Dr. Kil- mer's Swamp-Root, because as soon as your kidneys are we'll they will help all the other organs to health. A trial will convince anyone.
