REPAIR OF CAPITOL
IS TO BE CALLED
 TOGETHER.
Governor Says if is Found Money is Available Work of Improving old Statehouse Will
 Begin.

Governor Cunningham announced yes terday that he would in the near future call the Alabama Capitol Commission to- Eether to consider the advisability of expending s150.OO0 in Capitol improve ments.
 The Governor indicated that the meet ing of the Commission would probably Dc held some day of next week. Tho first thing the Commission will do will be to take stock of the State Treasury and ascertain if it can safely stand | draft of $l50.000 for the improvement of the Capitol. If it is found that the Treasury can bear the burden of s15O,d6 withdrawal the Commission will immedi- ately set to work to make the improve mects.
 It will be recalled that several weeks ago Governor Jelks stated that Capitol improvement was in sight and that their probable commencement was thing of the near future. The announcement made yesterday by Governor Cunningham was a confirmation of the views which had been expressed by Governor Jeiks.
 The Capitol Commission Is composed os Governor Cunningham Attorney General Massey Wilson, Treasurer J. Craig Smith, Auditor Thomas L. Sowell, Sec retary Of State E. R. McDavid and Di- rector Thomas NJ. Owen of the Depart ment of Archives and History, who is Secretary of the Commission.
 The appropriation made by the Capitol extension act Is to be expended at the discretion of the Governor, that is, the money is not to be expended unless in the opinion of the Governor the Treas ury will bear the drain made upon it. The further provision is made in the act that the appropriation shall extend over a period of three years. the sum of s5o,0o0 being payable annually.
 The southern quarter of the Capitol square is owned by private individuals. It is occupied by stores, residences and COW lots. The lawmakers provided a way whereby the State could obtain this property without the Commission being forced to pay an exorbitant figure for 1t. The Legislature put into the Capitol ex- tention act provisions whereby the State could institute condemnation proceedings and secure the property at a fair and just compensation. If the Commission should desire to secure this private property condemnation proceedings would in all probability be instituted.
 It is possible. however, that the Capitol Commission may decide that it is not necessary to purchase that property at this time. The Commission may con- clude that in view of the fact that the money available for Capitol extension is only $150,000 that the entire amount shall be expended in constructing new build ings
 ''The first thing the Commission will have to do," said Governor Cunningham yesterday, lis to ascertain if there is enough money in the Treasury to spare the $150.000 We do not want to take the money out of the Treasury If 1t will harm the old soldiers fund and we will not do that. It has come to my ears rnofficially that there is enough money in the Treasury to make the Improvements. The Commission when it meets will, have no doubt, find out that this is true"

It consists of three strands laid spirally together. each strand being made up of fifteen wires twisted together, and it's construction does not, therefore, differ greatly from that of the wire ropes to- day. Pompeii was buried A. D. 7e, over 800 years ago. but how long wire ropes had been known 1t is impossible to tell, though. judging by the knowledge shown in the construction, it may be safely con- cluded that they had been known for a considerable time. The uses to which these ropes were put are not definitely known. but further excavations may shed some light on the subject
