Tuscumbia Oct. 7.-(Special )-Elec- tric lights were turned on in this city last night by the Sheffield company, which has fulfilled It's obligations to give to Tuscumbia electric street cars, water works and electric lights, at an outlay of several hundred thousand dollars. The electric railway has been in successful operation since May; the waterworks were recently completed, and with the installation of the cleo tric lights. this city enjoys exception ally fine advantages and conveniences for a town of $500 to 1000 inhabitants.

 Recently a franchise was granted the North Alabama Gas Company which owns the plant at Florence, for a plant in Tuscumbia and shefield, to be com pleted by the first of May, and with the acquisition of this plant. Tuscum- bia will possess all the modern con- veniences enjoyed by any city in the South.

The grim crudity of the social ethics of the Hebrews at this time is shown in that 1t legalized the sale of children for their fathers debts. Yet the last century at this point was hardly up to the Jewish standard. Debtors prison Is a paradox. It Is to put a man where labor is impossible, although labor is necessary to discharge 1t. Servitude for debt Is certainly more reasonable than Imprisonment for debt. Charles Dickenss satire tumbled the debtors prison in a heap.

One pot of oil over against a debt. and that debt large enough to enslave her sons. But no human resource Is to be dispised. It Is the unit which Is to be multiplied. She must also person ally use what she has. Even the prophet can not pour out the oil for her.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1904-10-08

The imaginative mind of the Jew is in evidence in the suggestion made by Josephus and others, that this was the widow of Obadiah, and that the debt was occasioned by his feeding the hun dred prophets during the drought. He borrowed the money because he would not support them out of Ahab's treas ury. The highest pitch of fancy Is reached when it Is soberly suggested that the creditor is Ahab's own son, Jehoram. All that can be said is No evidence"

That widow showed gumption. She did not waste time inveighing against the cruelty of the creditor. The law was on his side.

The incident gives an interesting glimpse of the social life of Israel three thousand years ago. That there was a widow of the sons of the prophet shows that thtae communities were cenobitic. but not celibate. They did not all lead the cloister life.

begun by this city nine years ago, and
since that time the mortality has been
5,400, or Al per cent. while the popula-
ton has increased nearly 100000, or
So per cent. The recent action of
manufacturers in increasing the price
of the serum to $1.33 per 1000 units

cost of manufacture, which it declares
is less than 20 cents.
