WILL THE lUSK LAW HOLD :?
BY HERvEY W. LAIRD.

Montgomery. September 25.-(special)- Would an extra session of the legisla- ture do what 1t was called to do and quit? Is any urgent reason for such a session likely to arise. On these two ques- lions hang great deal of discussion just now around the state capitol. The Lusk Judiciary Jill is with the supreme court, and the number of we'll informed law yers wno believe it will fail of the ap- proyal of that tribunal Is far in excess of those who take the opposite view.
 A considerable number of citizens be- leve a special session of the lawmakers is inevitable If the bill is declared out lawed; many others hope for and believe a way will be discovered, if not now seen, to make such extra session unnee- essary. Certain 1t Is that the acting gov- ernor earnestly desires that the neces- sity will not arise, and it is pretty fair guess that large majority of the tax paying citizens would much rather drop back to the old judiciary systems than to take chances on calling the solons again to the capitol. It is generally under stood, too, that Governor Jelks Is no more in favor of an extra session than Gov trnor Cunningham, and would be very glad to find when he comes back to his duties in November, that there had arisen no real reason for such assem- hlipv

POPE MAKES SPEECH.
Receives One Thousand Members of Catholic Assn of French Youths.

Rome, September 3.-Pope Plus this morning received one thousand members of the Catholic Association of French Youths, whose president delivered an ad- dress protesting against attacks on Cath olicism and it's head.
 The pope replied in a long speech which, however, contained no allusion to the con- flct between the French government and the vatican, except, perhaps, when he said the protest of the president of the Catholic association was truly consoling, as it assures the pontiff that amidst pres ent difficulties the pope would have these dear young sons of France on his side in the struggle for good.

A Pioneer Woman.

The first brick mansion in
Nashville. Tenn, was built by
General James Robertson for his
wife, Charlotte Robertson, whose
story is told in the July Delinea
tor. Itis easily to be seen from
this tale Of daring and suffering,
how heroic a part was played by
women i'm the settlement of
America; not only in enduring
the loss Of everything commonly
supposed to be necessary to their
lives, but in the actual use of
arms, and in the duty, often
nece~sary in the absence Of their
bands, Of defending a home
or a fort against savages or
wild beasts. Mrs. Robertson
lived to see more peaceful times
and to enjoy we'll earned honor
and ease. She and her husband
lie side by side in the Old City
Cemetery at Nashville.

State Convention.

The State Democratic COnven
ton meets today in the capital
city for the first time since Gov.
Longino was nom inateo in 1899.
Under the new primary law
there is no need of such meetings
save wnen the race for President
rolls around aud consequently
this will probably be the last
meeting of the kind until four
years hence.
AS to the outcome of the meet
ing there is little room for doubt.
If the delegation goes instructed
at all it will in all probability be
for Parker. While Mr.. Hearst
has many admirers and adher-
ents in this State, their voice will
carry little weight today. But
from one county is expected any
trouble and strenuous efforts will
be made to get them in line and
in tune with the balance.
Mr. J. [ Sturdivant as one of
the delegates from this county
left yesterday for Jackson, Mr..
Walter Weaver having proceeded
