 Pratt City Mines

Company Is Already Employing Con. victs In Two Mines and Seems De- termined to Keep Plants Run
 nine-other News.

Pratt City. July 11.-{speeial)-Todas the miners are moving their tools from No. mine, making way for the convicts that will be put to work in No. 3 as soon as possible.
 In addition to placing the convicts in No. 1t is also stated that they are to be put in No. 1. The Tennessee company Is now operating No. and No. 10 by con victs and seems to be seeking to increase the output by this action.
 No. mine is one of the best equipped mines in the state, the electric hauiage system being in operation. So well have the wires been protected in the mines that it is now considered perfectly safe to operate the cars, and conyicts will be assigned to this work.
 From the movements of the Tennessee company 1t appears that 1t intends to operate all of it's furnaces and industries during the suspension of work at the mines

OPPOSED TO SUNDAY OPENING. Rev. Mir. Mathison at New Decatur Is
 Writing Some Vigorous Articles.

New Decatur, July 11.-(Special)- )-Rev c. W. Mathison, pastor of the First Bap- tist church, Decatur, is making a crusade against what he chooses to term the Sun day lawbreakers of the Decaturs; that is, he cleaims that the confectionery stores butcher shops and other business houses have no right to keep open doors on the Sabbath day according to the state and moral laws He has written several arti- cles in local paper in which he says that if these places do not keep closed on Sunday that he will have the matter in- vestigated by the grand jury and will see that all of these law breakers" are pros- ecuted according to law.
 He has just issued circular in which he quotes sections of the state laws to show that no bushes house. except a drug store, has the legal right to keen open on Sunday. He say in the same cir cular:
 For two years the mayor has wit messed these violations without making any effort to check them. Four weeks ago request was made of the mayor to enforce these laws Every Sabbath since the laws have been violated openly, the marshal has been instructed not to make any arrests and the law breakers have been given assurance, they claim, that the mayor will not interfere with their violation of the Sunday laws. The law is plain, the violation is plain and the fact that the mayor is cooperating with the law breakers is plain

Some ExpIanations.

It will be observed that there is want of correspondence in the net amount Tor the several quarters mentioned in tnis re- port This is due to several causes two of which may be mentioned; greater re-
 ceipts in one quarter than another, and ereater expenditures in one quarter than another. The first quarter of the fiscal year, as will be observed, resulted in net income of $57. 2S. During that quarter a large amount of the $35,000 of costs bills was paid, reducing sharply the net in- come. The next quarter, beginning Janu- ary and ending the 3lst of March, with se4. .e45.49 This was due to the fact that no great amount of cost was paid during the quarter and that the cotton crop of the season was sold and entered into it..
