theirs as long as they remained. The response was made by J. D. Thomas of Tuscaloosa County.
 Gen. George D. Johnston of Tusca. loosa County, first addressed the audi ence which was seated in the park near the public spring. He took as his subject the life of Jefferson Davis and was given close attention. Gen. Ste- phen D. Lee of Columbus. Miss. Com mander-in Chief of the Confederate Veterans of the South was next intro- duced. the presiding officer proposing three cheers and the enthusiasm dis played by the old soldiers as the rebel yell came from over 200 husky throats showed unmistakably the love and af- lection they have for their chief and the honor accorded them by his pres ence.
 General Lees address was given close attention, his remarks being dl- rected mostly to the young people up on whom will fall the responsibility or perpetuating untarnished the record or the Confederate soldier. There were recitations by Miss Sal lie Robertson, Miss Ethel Houser and Miss Ella Simpson. The old soldiers were served first. after which the gem eral public were invited to the table. There was plenty of good things to eat for all and enough at the last to sup ply the colored contingent of the crowd.
 General Johnston and General Lee were entertained at the home of Con- gressman Bankhead. one of the typical Southern country homes.

THREE DEATHS AT EuFAULA.
Postmaster Locke, Mrs. w w. Man.
 gum and Daniel McExinnon Exnire.

Eufaula, Aug. 20.-(SpeciaI. "A J. Locke. postmaster of the city and | widely known and most highly es- | teemed citizen. died at his home on Cherry Street last night.
 Mir. Locke had been confined to his home for three or four days, but was | able to sit on his front porch yester- | day morning. About o'clock in the afternoon he entered his room without | making any complaint and his wife did
 not have any serious apprehensions concerning him. short time after l wards when she entered the room she found him in an unconscious condition and summoned every physician in the city.
 MT. Locke never rallied and breath ed his last at 3 o'clock this morning surrounded by his home circle. numer- ous relatives and some intimate friends. Mir. Locke had resided here most all of his life and had been en-
 gagged in mercantile and other pursuits
 but the greater portion of the time he
 has been connected with the postotfice as postmaster or assistant.
 MT. Locke had always been promi- nent in politics. standing by his con- victions as a Republican with a de- gree of frmness that commanded the admiration of the very best men in the State. As a citizen he was loved and esteemed. He was about 6S years old and was brother of the late Hon. R. D. Locke of Macon, Ga, and former postmaster W. H. Locke of this city,
 He was a veteran of the civil war and was brave and fearless soldier. His wife and numerous relatives sur vive him. The funeral will be held from his late residence tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock and Dr. W. N. Reeves will conduct the exercises. His remains will be inferred in Fair View Cemetery here.
 Mrs. Mangum, wife of pr. W. w. Mangum, died at the home of her fath- CT. Captain B. B. Mckenzie, last night at 10 o'clock. Mrs Mangum's death was not unexpected as she has been in feeble health for number of years and recently returned from Mexico where 1t was hoped she would receive some benefit. She was a most estima- ble Christian woman. widely known and esteemed. Her husband a little daughter. her father and mother and numerous other relatives and friends survive her. The funeral was held dence and her remains. followed by a larg" concourse of friends. were inter- red in Fair View Cemetery.
 Daniel McKinnon. an old Confederate veteran and we'll known and much loved citizen of the County died at his home here yesterday morning after a long illness from consumption. He moved here from Cuo four years ago and resided with two grown daughters who survive him. The funeral occur red from his residence yesterday af- ternocn and his remains were inferred in Fair View Cemetery.

LABORATORY,
Chemical and Physical, for the Univer-

Chemical and Physical, for the Univer-
 sity School.
 The cottage at the southeast corner of Dexter Avenue and Decatur Street is soon to be equipped with chemical and physical apparatus for use of pu- pills of the University School The work heretofore done In these subjects with little or no equipment. has proved very helpful to University School stu dents after they have entered college. With more adequate facilities it is hoped that yet better results may be accomplished. Mir. s. c. Starke. who will be in charge of the laboratory, has spent a portion of this summer in labor atory work in New York. In selecting apparatus and planning his course of study for pupils, MT. Starke has had the opportunity of consulting a prom inent teacher of physics in New York.
 The character of the work to be at- tempted at the University School Is ele- mentary, the object being not to turn out physicists and chemists, but to give pupils such thorough grounding in physics and chemistry as will enable them to pursue these subjects at col lege with the greatest possible profit.
 The University School now offers in- struction in English. French. German, Latin, Greek. Algebra, Geometry, Trig- onometry and Laboratory Work in Physics and Chemistry. It has a gym nasium built and equipped especially for physical culture, exercise in the gymnasium being compulsory. With these advantages at hand. it is not necessary for an earnest boy to leave Montgomery to enter some college that lis at best little more than a high school. It Is almost impossible for any college. not heavily endowed. to do both preparatory work and college work at the same time Why not se- cure the best possible preparation to be had at home, and then seek a degree in some university or college whose diplomas are known and valued the | world over?
 Some Montgomery parents have sent l their boys farther, have paid more money, and have gotten results far less | satisfactory than could have been had at the University School for less than SIP a month. Such errors are general ly discovered too late. Investigate the claims of the University School. | adv.

the law in such cases. The fines were imposed upon finding by Lieutenant Bryan that the vessels coming under such ban were without fog horns and bells. The law insists that both bell and a regulation horn should be kept aboard. During fogyy weather, 1t is the intent of the law that the horn shall be kept going continually, while the bell is to be kept in operation al- most continually at night.
 Some time ago the revenue agent here was served with instructions to make the Investigations. and ascer- tain if the law was being observed. At random five schooners were selected and each of them were found to have been without the noise producers, the law said they must have. In each case a fine was imposed. and then. to be fair with all concerned, the revenue man held up his investigation until he could get the approval of the Treasury Department. He yesterday made re- port on the matter, and will await the Departments reply before pushing the investigation further. In the meantime there is a great hustling among the owners of vessels to comply with the law

WHO ARE COMMITTEEMAN
Question as to Who Are Members for
 Chancery District.

Opelika, August 20.-(Special)- Some question has arisen as to who constituted the executive committee of this Chancery Division. It is re- ported that at the late Democratic State convention, a new committee was not selected. If this Is fact, the question arises whether the old committee holds over or whether the chairman of the respective county com mittees constitute the chancery com mittee. This committee will have to decide the method of selecting sue cessor to the late Hon. H. J. Gillian, nominee for Chancellor in this Divis- ion.
 Opelika received it's first balo of new cotton yesterday. It was raised by Mr. A. M. Buchannon of this city. on his plantation, near Marvyn in Rus sell county. was classed as good mid ding and was sold at the Alliance Warehouse at eleven cents per pound. Opelika received its first bale last year on September 8, 1903. Notwithstand- ing the crop this year is considered late, the first bale was received twelve days earlies than last year.
 Captain T. D. Sanford and wife left this morning for visit to the St. Louis exposition.

Tanners BacI<-ActiOn Argument.

New 1OEk w OTlus
 The Herald says that Corporal Tan ner has announced his intention to take the stump to criticise Judge Parkers "high-tonedness" and praise "Presi- dent Roosevelts generosity in pen sions."
 Judge Parker was not born with silver spoon in his mouth. has never inherited a fortune. has been all his life and Is today much poorer than Mir. Roosevelt. By dint of energy, ability and straightforwardness he has won his way in the world. But even the prominence he has achieved as the can didate of a great party for President has not caused him to change his mode of living, and his little grandson, Par ker Hall still plays barefooted about his house and farm.
 If there were any "high-tonedness' about Judge Parker 1t would be his own affair. On the other hand, "Presi- dent Roosevelt's generosity in pen sions" is everybodys affair, for 1t is not with his own but with the peo- ple's money that he is generous, and without any previous warrant of law Perhaps the display of generosity that appeals most to the Corporal Is the fact that the President retains him in the lucrative office of Register of Wills for the District of Columbia.

THE MECCA CAFE.
Montgomery's New Cafe for Ladies aud
 Gentlemen Under New Manage


 Attention is directed to the an- nouncement of The Mecca Cafe and Restaurant which appears in a con spicuous place elsewhere in today's Advertiser. The statements made in this formal announcement will un- doubtedly prove of great interest to not only the people of Montgomery, but to the travelling public. The man. agement of The Mecca announce. with pardonable pride and great pleasure. that 1t has secured the services of Mfr. Joseph Kruman, a Caterer of interna- tional reputation. who will act as Man ager and Caterer. and Captain E. W. Booker, one of Alabama's best and most popular citizens, will act in the capacity of General Supervisor.
 MT. Kruman comes to Montgomery with the most enviable reputation. For a number of years he had charge of the catering department at Delmonicos. later served as Chef d'Etage at The Waldorf. and more recently he has opened the new and superb Bismarck Cafe at Cincinnati Mir. Kruman has a world wide experience as a Caterer. and he purposes to serve at The Mecca national and international dishes. and persons wishing special dishes served. will find MT. Kruman always ready and willing. For the first time in the history of Montgomery we are to have the advantages of an expert Caterer. Mir. Kruman will make speciality of serving panquets, wedding parties, re- captions and dinner parties. both in Montgomery and throughout the State, which will undoubtedly prove not only a popular feature, but a great relief to hosts. The Mecca is the most hand somely appointed cafe in Alabama and under Mir. Kruman's experienced care 1t will no doubt soon become one of the most popular cafes within the com fines of the State. Epicures and all persons having a keen appreciation of good food we'll prepared and tempting ly served, will be delighted with The Mecca. Adv.
