DOWIE ATTACKS THE KING
CHARACTERISTIC SPEECH IN
 CARNEGIE HALL, NEW YORK.
scofs at Edward VII. as Defender of the Faith-Loves Theodore Roosevelt but if He Does Great Wrong Will Not be Afraid to Tell Him of It. Bitter Attack on Rennrfers

New York, June 27.-On his first public appearance after his trip around the world John Alexander Dowie to- day attacked the character of King Ed ward. declared that he loved President Roosevelt and denounced reporters. He spoke at Carnegie hall in the morning and in the afternoon, making two ad- dresses at each session.
 After much bitter reference to King Edward he said: Defender of the faith, indeed. Two weeks ago he went with the Duke of Devonshire to see some horses and get points about a coming race. The prophet Is mightier man than the king. and what the prophet said has made his throne totter. I love Theodore Roosevelt. but if he does a great wrong, I shall not be afraid to tell him of it, and believe he is too good a man to be afraid to hear> of it."
 To the reporters he shouted: But I say to each one of you felIows-beware. You will each have to stand before God for your own sins. Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm God declares; and He will protect His prophets. All liars have their portion in the lake which burneth with fire and birthstone. You can laugh; you can laugh yourselves into hell, but you can- not laugh yourselves out. A Methodist minister once scoffed at me, and was put out for disturbing a service. I told him to beware. and my words rang in his ears. Three days later his body was found in a pool of water. I cannot tell how it got there. but I warned him. And warn you men, beware. God will stop your mouth. brand you scoun- drels and dogs as pack of unmitigat- ed liars. Yet pray God to bless you.
 T have been asked when I will stop fighting. Not until have got the devil licked. And until have got him licked will keep on licking the little devils. I would like to save every one. even the young fellows out of those literary scavengers offices down town. And when I get to heaven I think should like to go to hell to fight the devil there,

Duel With Pills.

Q
 An extraordinary duel, which at the time created an immense sensa. tion, was one in which the decision was arrived at, not by words or pis- tols, but by means of deadly poison. The men-who. 1t is hardly necessary to say, had fallen out over a lady had left the arrangement of details to their seconds, and until they faced each other they did not know by what method they were to settle their dif- ferences. One of the seconds was 8 doctor, and he had made up for the occasion four black pellets. all iden- tical in size and shape. Tn one of these" he said, T have placed a suffi- cient quantity of prussic acid to cause the almost instantaneous death of any one who swallows it. We will decide by the toss of coin which of you is to have first choice, and you will all ternately draw and swallow a pill un- til the poison shows its effects" Two of the pellets were then taken as the toss had decided. but without effect in either case. This time," said the doctor. speaking of the two pellets remaining, you must both swallow the pill at the same instant" The choice was made, and in a few seconds one of the men lay dead on the grass

A PLAN FOR GOOD ROADS.

New Hampshire is about to tackle the road question in a manner that will bring results. Gen. Charles S. Collins, one of the most prominent men of the State. has plan which Is thus ex- plained by The Manchester Union:
 It Is in brief that considerable sum of money be used in the permanent irn- provement of the main highways in the mentions s3.0o0.00O in fifteen years. He would have one-half of this amount paid from the State treasury, and the balance by the town and county equal make the first move-ask that aid be extended 1t in improving a certain piece of highway. The official repre- sentative of the State would view the premises, specify the nature and extent of the improvement the town would make 1t, according to his specifications, and when this was done. receive the aid promised I from the State and coun- town that asked 1t for any piece of continuous highway leading to other towns. under those conditions. The help themselves. would not receive the aid
 New Hampshire is one of the small States of the Union. being but little more than one-sixth as large as Ala bama. with less than one-fourth the population. It Is also a rugged region, where roadbuilding is difficult work. but the amount named will do wonders if properly applied. It looks like a large sum for that State to expend for this purpose. but as the time ex- tends fifteen years, the sum Is not a large one. and it is to be equally di- vided between the State and the towns and counties. though of course 1t all comes from taxes.
 Another thing to be considered in the project Is the cooperative plan pro- posed. under which the benents will go to the communities which are will ing to contribute half the expense. Un- der this plan, If town or county is not willing to respond by local taxation to the plan. 1t gets nothing from the State This will spur each town and county to active exertion. Not only win any town be humiliated if there .Are good roads all around it while 1t has none. but each will feel the natural desire to obtain a share of the States
  contribution and will do its part to obtain it. The matter is only in the discussive stage at present. but we pre- dict that the more 1t Is discussed and considered the more popular 1t will be- come Though small State. the total property valuation Is almost as much as that of Alabama. while its debt is small. and s.a addition of $2oo,ooo. or a little more. each year will not be great burden on them. and the return for their money will be good roads for all the people and for all time if the work Is properly done and little ex- pense incurred each year in repairs and Few investments will pay the farmer better than system of good roads. and it is one improve ment which benefits both town and country.

COLUMBUS WINS MATCH.
Macon Defeated In Second Bowling
 TOrnameHt.


 co, Torn,meat. ,.> Columbus was the winner by five points in the match bowling game with Macon last night. Macon bowlers SCOT ed 2.510 pins, as the aggregate of the three games. while Columbus's score was 2,515 pins. A game last week was won by Macon, but 1t Is claimed that this game will not count. owing to the fact that Macon had ten players and Columbus only had five. The regular bowling tournament to be participated in by several Southeren cities begins December IA. Columbus bow1ers hope to win the pennant for this city.
 The residence of G. H. Tourney, with practically all the furniture, was de- stroyed at Crawford, Ala, night before last. His aged mother, who had been confined to the bed five years, had a narrow escape from a terrible death She was rescued from her room with great difficulty.
 Milton O. Bridge, and Miss Clara Johnson. of Lightwood, Elmore County, Alabama, were married in Columbus yesterday afternoon by Justice Lem pard. The groom Is about 30 years of age and the girl about IS. The court ship was of long standing, and there was but one perplexing feature-teh re- fusal of the young lady's father to give his consent. The couple accordingly came to Columbus, which has so long been the Gretna Green of runaway couples from Alabama, and were hap oily married. The families are we'll to-do.

The Tuscumbia North Alabamian has this to say about 1t:

The ruscumbia North Alabamian has this to say about 1t:
 The Selma Journal and The Mont gomery Advertiser are of the opinion that the Alabama River should receive first call from the Government. No doubt when the Government opens the real river of Alabama the Tennessee, the other streams will receive attention they deserve.
 That Is somewhat like a man paying all his money for a vest and going without trousers. The Tennessee Is an important stream. we admit. but 1t lacks something of being ''the real river of Alabama" It dips into the State in one corner and bobs out in another. running through a splendid region which we shall be glad to see fully developed, but the real need of Alabama Is a direct and reliable water way to the Gulf. without going through Tennessee and Kentucky, hundreds of miles out of the way, to reach a sea port. If appropriations can be secured for all the rivers, it is well, but if not, let's have the most important first.

HAS CHANGED HIS MIND.

Senator Hale of Maine, If we have him down right. Is now one of the most robust of the stand -patters, but there was a time while he was member of the lower House that he saw things differently. Then the question of . tax or duty on salt was up and here is part of his speech on 1t:
 about wssn sss one es mons of people day by day r. % decided ss no tax upon this article of sAlt have
 ne :s so ens sss sow n ths sasy S per cent. I do not consent to that. ! believe this article should 70 upon the free list; that the monopoly which has salt works---As great and complete ss any monopoly ever GrantAd by the Tu.. dors in Enslands most despotic times -ought to cease.
 It is very evident that Hale 0ossn1 see things now as he did then. for there Is yet tax on salt. varying from 90 to 100 per cent. as We understand the schedule rates. and averaging at least 50 per cent. That. however. is . com- paratively trining matter compared with some other burdensoms features of the Dingiey tariff schedule. So far as the price of salt is concerned, 1t is not burdensome. though that fact does not make the protective duty any the less a wrong, nor does 1t alter the fact that the duty has built up and Is sus. taining a salt monopoly that is worth millions annually to the fortunate ones.
 MT. Hale declared in his speech that this predatory monopoly ought to cease, and the argument Is much more pertinent now than 1t was then, for the monopoly has grown enormously since he denounced it so severely. Still it is almost an insignificant item com pared with some of the other outrage ous features of the tarin upon which Mir. Hale proposes now to stand pat, doubtless in obedience to the new light which has dawned on him. There are trusts infinitely more onerous, burden some and indefensible than the salt monopoly. They are the direct and legitimate results of the present tariff, and they are enabling a favored few to build up enormous fortunes at the expense of the people. If some power would open his eyes to the iniquities of these children of Dingleyism and make him as severe against them as he was against the onondaga salt works. 1t would be more creditable to him, but he seems to have learned that a pro- tectiye tariff is a good thing.
