On every bottle of Liquozone we pub lish an offer of $l,000 for a disease germ that it cannot kill We do that to con vince you that Liquozone does kill germs.
 Think what that means. Every mod ern physician knows that nearly all gickness-the little ills and the big !ones-are caused by germ attacks They know that those germs must be de- stroyed before the sickness can end. And they know that drugs never kill inside germs.
 s Those modern physicians are now using LiQuozone. And millions who were sick-like you. perhaps-are well feday because of 1t. The cured ones |. are everywhere: some are your neign- sbors, your friends. Won't you ask them about Liquozone?

He was 67 years old and had been a citizen Of Opelika many years. He was gal lant Confederate soldier.
 There Is considerable depression in Christmas trade in Opelika. on account of the decline in the price Of cotton and there is much apprehension 1t will continue for sometime. There are G. 900 or 1000 bales of cotton in the Ope- lika warehouses, but very little is be- ing sold at the present prices. Most of the small farmers have sold most or all of their cotton, and the majority of the larger planters are holding their crop, and as most of them are finan- cially able to do so. they will hold their cotton until better prices prevail.
 They are confident that better prices will come if cotton Is held and the ac- reage decreased next year. The average of corn. oats. wheat and other crops will be largely increased in Lee next season.

 We are grateful to the. Conference for their hearty endorsement of the school. and to the people for the fine class of girls they have sent us. We wish our appreciation to be manifested not only in words. but in our efforts to send out intelligent women predisposed and prepared to make the home a center of religious life and the school dis tinctively Christian, working always and everywhere for the evangelization of the world.

Not to Be Leased to Atlantic Coast
 A special dispatch of the sth inst. from New York saysvthat Warren G. Elliott. General Counsel of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Company, and Mir. Michael Jenkins, one of the directors, say that there Is no truth in the report from New York that arrangements are about completed by which the Coast Line will lease the Louisville and Nash vile Railroad on a guaranteed dividend basis.
 The report was circulated in Wall Street that the details for the lease had been completed and that it was under stood that under the lease the minority stockholders of the Louisville and Nashville would be offered a guaran- teed dividend of per cent. Dividends are now paid at the rate of 5 per cent year. but recently there has been a substantial advance in the price of the stock and 1t was persistently reported that the rate Is to be increased at the next meeting If the directors.
 The Louisville and Nashville Railroad Is controlled by the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Company through the owner snip or more than 6 majority of the capital stock. In the spring of 1902 the controlling interest was purchased tn the open market by John W. Gates. Edwin Hawley and their associates. They in turn sold the control to J. P. Mofgan & Co.,. receiving, 1t is said, $1s0 for a portion of the stock and $150 for the remainder. The profits made by the Gates-Hawley pool is reported to have amounted to between $S,O0o, 900 and $10.OO0.00O. J. P. Morgan & Go. formed a syndicate and sold the stock to the Atlantic Coast Line.

CONFERENCE
 FEMALE COLLEGE.
fReport of the President of the Ala
 bama Conference.

t1Report of the President of the Ala
 bama Conference. z Dear Brethren:
 I have the honor to make the follow Ang report of the Alabama Conference Female College:
 Property.
 The property, consisting or twenty five acres of land and four buildings. <with furniture, library, laboratory, mu- sical instruments, and outhouses, esti- auated at a conservative valuation of k$l0O, ,000, is in good condition, free from 1debt and covered by insurance amount ang to s34,750.
 q We have just completed new labor datory building which adds much to the Facility and efficiency of our scientific work. This building with some addi- stions to the apparatus, has cost $l,53S,- E7. We have also expended during Sfhe past year in repairing. repainting land refurnishing the old buildings, sums amounting to s1,550.s6. making a Total expenditure of sS.125.63, for the Enlargement and betterment of the @rcperty.
 e We have received from friends of the dnstitution contributions in money and Building materials amounting to s1,- p17.42. The remaining s2,10S.21 we sAave paid out of the income of the BcnOOl ana SuCn other lnOHey dS we udu At our command. These improvements were necessary in order to do the work in the best manner possible.
 Endowment. z The endowment begun in the twen- fieth century movement now amounts. to $1o.525.94, invested in Food loans on real estate.
 We have enrolled to date 151; non-
 
 rcsident or local students, S4; total l51.
 s For lack of room we have not been able to take all the applicants for places lin OUT boarding department. It would not be conducive to the health and moral welfare of the students to crowd Any more into our rooms; nor would 1t be popular or productive of the best results to board the girls out of the college away from the supervision and fnfiuence, of the teachers The patron age of the school cannot, therefore. Be safely increased without additional Buildings. ( The income for the scholastic year a903-4 was as follows: From board, fpition, music art, and elocution, $1S,- B35.43; from Conference collections. s2,- 179.40; from interest on endowment, s$400.40; total income, s21.415.23 s+
 Out of this were paid the board of the college establishment, salaries of Teachers, wages of servants. cost of re- pairing, repainting, refurnishing, in [ suring. publishing. canvassing, and whatever reductions would, in our judg snent, make the school a more efficient agency in the cause of Christian edu- jcation.

WANT COW LAW.
Florence Council to Be Mandamused to
 Pass Ordinance.

Pass Ordinance.
 Florence, Dec. 10.-(Special )-In a case against the Mayor of Bessemer, which was appealed to the Supreme Court, the following decision was hand ed down for all cities of 5000 inhabit- ants or more:
 municipalities are not only empowered, put required" which in legislative language Is equivalent to command, to adopt all such ordinances and laws as shall be necessary to prevent the run ming at large, etc. of the stock or cat tie named in the act.
 This decision refers to an act of the last Legislature of Alabama, which prohibits the gentle bovine, among other barn yard animals, from pas turing herself on the city streets
 It was brought to the attention of the council of Florence by citizens who were anxious to have a COW law passed and who believed that the dictum of the Supreme Court was final. But they "reckoned without their host" or with out their City Council From month to month the matter has been post poned. the patience of some citizens has been exhausted and mandamus pro- ceedings will be instituted to compel them to pass the law.

Germ DiSeareS.

These are the knows germ diseases: all due to germs, or the poisons which germs create. These are the diseases to which medicine does not apply, for drugs cannot kill inside germs
 All that medicine can do for these troubles is to act as a tonic, aiding Ma ture to overcome the germs. But those results are indirect and uncertain. They depend on the patients condition. When drugs were prescribed for these troubles. nobody knew of germs. Now every good physician knows that they call for a germicide.
 Liquozone alone can destroy the cause of these troubles. It goes wher- ever the blood goes. No germ can es- cape it, and we have found no disease germ which can resist 1t. Diseases which have resisted medicine for years yield at once to Liquozone, and 1t cures diseases which medicine never cures. In any stage of any disease in this list, the results are so certain that we will gladly send to any patient who asks it an absolute guaranty.

 Suggestion to Planters.
 There Is nothing especially new in our freight business just now,' said General Freight Agent DeFuniak Of the Louisville and Nashville yesterday 'As usual, freight traffic Is pretty heavy with us, but we have not had the slightest trouble in handling the busi- ness. The cotton movement IS very light right now, owing to the sudden slump in the market. There Is great deal of 1t in Montgomery and every where go see unmstakable signs that the planters are holding for bet ter prices.
 Down in Mississippi" he contin- ued. T have a planter friend who raises 800 bales of cotton. He always sells futures and says that by this means he Is in a position to average II cents pound for his cotton even when the price is down to 1-2 cents."
 Rates for Home Seekers.
 Passenger Agent Walter Beasley of the Louisville and Nashville. Is getting ready for a big homeseekers travel to Texas and the West next Tuesday. The rates are in effect from the 18th to the 27th. Tickets are s13.50 one way from points East to a line drawn through the following Texas towns: Amarillo. Fit. Worth, Dallas, San Angeles, Cor pus' Christi, Brady Galveston and Mat agorda.
 The cheap one-way rates also apply to Arkansas, Indian Territory. Missouri. Kansas and Oklahoma.
 Not as Bad as 1t Looks.
 '"rhe statement in The Advertiser about the water supply on the Mobile and Montgomery division makes 1t look like we are in a pretty bad fix" said Superintendent Mckinney of that road yesterday. 'The fact is the re- verse. When I started to bore the wells I was aware of the fact that the water in that section was impregnated with a strong solution of alkali, but in hopes that better water would be struck the wells were bored anyway. Finding out the amount of alkah in the water the well at Georgiana was not bored, but even then at a pinch we can use some of the alkali water"
 More Oyster Shuckers.
 Oyster shuckers are still focking Southward. and from Scranton to New Orleans the coast will be lined with them. Train dispatchers at the West ern Railroad say that there are a great many more than 30O0 hut that wheu they come in one or two cars in g. train the conductors report shows them with the other passengers. When there Is a special train of oyster shuckers 1t is easy to tell how many there are but when they are in cars on the regular train 1t Is impossible to get the exact number.

What Liquozone IC.

q Liquozone is not a medicine. It is not made by compromising acids or drugs, nor is there any alcohol in it. Its virtues are derived solely from gas 4-largely oxygen gas-by a process re quiring immense apparatus and 14 days time. Each cubic inch of Liquozone requires the use of ,250 cubic inches of the gas.
 Liquozone is the result of a process. which, for more than 20 years. hasbeen the constant subject of scientific and chemical research. The main result is to get into liquid. and thus into the blood, a powerful, yet harmless, germl- eide. Another result is to create a vii ta1izing tonic with which no other known nroduct can cnmnarp

Special to Times Republican,
:Eldora, Aug. 20.-Workmen employ
ed by the state at the industrial school
just west of this city. today unearthed
at depth Of fifty-two feet, fine quail
ity OF coal. The deposit on more def
mite analysis developed the fact that
the specimens were Of the best quality
of soft coal, no sulphur or other un-
profitable substance being found. The
several specimens taken out are Of a
shiny black and in the seams were a
yellowish white band, which good
judges pronounce certain evidence Of
first class quality. The state geologist
several years since on visit to Eldora,
made a somewhat hasty examination
Of the coal fields in and about this city
and then gave. 1t as his opinion that
there was not much question that coal
abounded here. The find of today
would seem to bear out these state
ments. Further examinations will be
prosecuted and at this time there seems
but little doubt that the state has
sufficient quantity of good fuel at the
doors of one of it's largest institutions,
