General UreII's Letter.

General NJ. Emmett Urel was newly
elected COMMUNICATIVE Chief of the Ma
tional Organization of Spanish War
Veterans, of which President Roosevelt
is member. An incident connected with
this organization we tell in the Generals
own words
Il accomplished something in Detroit
which few men in the United States, and,
indeed. few men in the world. can do"
said General Urell. Il commanded the
President and had the satisfaction of
seeing him obey. 1 was in charge of the
convention when l noticed Miss Clara
Barton enter the room. Turning to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, l said, 'Comrade Roose-
welt. 1 detail you to proceed TO the door
and escort Miss Barton to a seat on the
platform. The President jumped up like
any of you boys would have done, and
performed his duty"
This prominent General recommends Pc
runa in the following words:

THE WEDDING WAS
 A ABEAUTIFULAFFAIR
POPULAR TUSCALOOSA COUPLE IS MARRIED IN CHRIST CHURCH IN PRESENCE OF coNcouRSE OF FRIENDS.

Tuscaloosa. April 2S-(speeaD-A beau- tiful wedding was solemnlzed at Christ church last evening at 9 o'clock. the con tracing parties being pr. William M. Faulk and Miss Ella NJ. Leland. The church was beautifully decorated in white and green and was filled to it's ut most capacity with friends of the con- tracting parties. Shortly before the en- trance of the bridal party wedding hymn was beautifully sung by Mrs. T. A. Iargrove. The bride, who entered on the arm of her brother, Richard M. Le- land, was a vision of lovelness in an ele- gant gown of liberty satin, which was finished with trimmings of rose point. Her veil was held with orange blossoms and she carried brides roses.
 At the chaneel she was met by the groom with his best man, Dr. George k. Rau of Louisville, and the rector, s. E. McGibbon. Miss Carrie Leland, maid of honor, wore n beautiful gown of delicate pink silk null and carried pink roses. The matrons of honor, Mrs. W. A. Leland and Mrs. Henry H. Leland, and the bridesmaids Miss Margaret Nixon of Bir- mlngham, Miss Helen Van Hoose of Bir- mlngham, Miss Abbie searcy and Miss Annie Scarcy wore handsome gowns of white silk null and carried pink roses tied with large bows of white tule

LADIES OPPOSE
 CHANGE OF DATE
MEMORIAL ASSOCIATION OF CO., lUMBUS, GA, WILL CLING TO APRIL 26 AS MOST APPRoPRi- ATE FOR DECORATION DAY.

Columbus, Ga, April 27-(Special)-'rhe Ladies' Memorial association of Colum- bus, the mother association of the south, will resist vigorously the proposed change of the date of Memorial Day from April 26 to June 3. The suggestion was made by an orator in Atlanta Monday and was given publication in the Associated Press dispatches.
 The custom of Memorial Day was origi- mated in Columbus thirty eight years ago by the women of this city. The day April 26-has become sacred date in southern history, and clustered about it are so many hallowed associations that it would be like radically changing the customtom itself to change the date of the observance.
 The original Ladies' Memorial associa- ton, organized in Columbus in the spring of 1866, purposely fixed the date in the early spring, in order that the people could place the first flowers of the sea son on the graves of the Confederate dead The sentiment in this-offering the first fruits of the season-can be readily appreciated. On April 26 the flora of the gulf states is in full bloom, and as q rule the weather Is ideal. although there are occasional exceptions like yes terday. The date suggested, June 3, would be too late, the ladies point out. The flowers placed on the graves would not be the first of the season. and thus to a certain extent the offerings would lose their value. The weather is often quite warm on June 3.

 Is to Be Built.
BIG DELEGATIONS PRESENT

Tuscaloosa, April 2S.-(Special.)-A spe- cial session of the synod of Alabama is in session here, ministers and elders from all sections of the state being present. This is the largest body that the Presby- terians of this state have ever gathered together.
 The purpose of this called meeting is to decide the location of state college for young men, and it appears that be- fore the matter is settled there will be some exciting times. After going into session an overture was heard from the East Alabama presbytery requesting that the synod postpone all action in regard to the location of the college until the next regular meeting of the synod.
 This was referred to a committee on bills and overtures, which afterwards an- swered the overture in the negative.
 No decision had been reached and it is likely that the matter will be settled at tomorrow's session.

SYLACAUGA IS AFTER IT.
Wants to Form Company to Be Part
 of Third Regiment.

Anniston, April cial.)-Company D, Annston Rifles, has not yet been mus tered out of the military service of the state. Since the recent visit of Adjutant l General Brandon no orders have been re- ceived or any word concerning the future of the company. Lieutenant Dill, com manding, has not been notified of the ac- ceptance of his resignation and all hands are awaiting whatever action will be ta- ken by the head of the military estab- lshment
 The company was not assembled for in- spection by the regular army officer re- gently and on the occasion of his being here General Brandon merely instructed the commanding officer to await orders. It is understood that Sylacauga is anx- ious to have a military company to be attached to the Third regiment and some of the local militiamen say if the present company here is mustered out there is a strong likelihood of their getting in and Annston's chance of getting another company into the service would be slim

FARMERS ARE OUT OF DEBT
BY FRANK V. EVANS.

Childersburg, April 2S.-(Special) This is another of the important market towns of Talladega county It contains a popu- lation of about 600, though the corporate limits are more circumscribed than are those of many Alabama towns more pre- tentious
 Childersburg is one of the older towns of the state, and just why it has not grown more rapidly it is hard to say. The town is the crossing point of the Southern and the Central of Georgia railroads, and ought to enjoy the full benefit of compe- tition in freight rates. Then, too, it is located in Coosa valley, which is so rich in soil. The market receives about 40C0 bales of cotton, and this seems to be its chief support. However, there are other farm products which add considerably to the importance of Chldersburg.
 Here located is quite an important knit ting mill, which is said to be proving a profitable investment, and the timber in- terests have been source of profit.
 Childersburg is located directly on the Coosa river, and should that stream ever receive the attention it deserves at the hands of the government, Childersburg is bound to derive great benefit therefrom, and thus go forward in the general march of progress.
