 Wetumpka, Feb. 12.-(Special. 1.-The U. D. c. entertainment, given at the audi torium this afternoon and evening for the benefit of the John B.

The refreshments were served from two tables-one in red roses. one in white and the War of the Rose idea was car ried out in the costumes of the little girls serving.
 The city of wetumpka has just eomplet- ed the erection of a four-room pest house, which is needed as there have been few cases of small pox among the negroes all the winter. Many of the cases are among negroes from the Bir- mingham district who have come home. Hon. Cabot LuH has entered the race for. probate judge; T. F. Moon has an- nounced for treasurer and E.

IN PURITAN DAYS
Boston Statutes That Made Sunday
Day of Gloom.
Loud Snoring Was Barred at the
Public Meeting House.

This religion of people who be-
lieved in taking literal interpretations
of the Old Testament as their guide
in the government of a country which
they had misnamcd the "land of the
free" reached the height of it's i'm
possible demands ut the middle of the
seventeenth century. A statute franz
cd in Boston in 1868 regarding the
penalties for breaking the laws of
Sunday observance are the scvcrcst of
any formed before or since and show
what a day of dismal gloom this day
of rest must have been.
In the days of the puritans, an OBJ
scrvance of Sunday meant an attend
nnce at all the church meetings and it
meant little else. Worship in the pub
lie meeting house was compelled by
law. When the bell tolcd out its
summons, all must go, willingly or
otherwise; and Notwithstanding the
difficulties in the way of the journey
This often meant tramp of many
miles over rough ground where one
carried his footgear in his hands.
At the time this scverest of all
statutes was passed in Boston, no one
was allowed to go abroad anywhere
on Sunday except to church, unless
there was some extraordinary need or
the GRAND was one of mercy No one
was permitted to go from one town to
another on that day or to enter any
public house for a drink. Guards were
stationed at the edge of the town Sat
urday night at shutdown to see that no
vehicle passed either in or out of the
city from that time until the close of
the following day, and labor of all sort
was prohibited. Even children We're

worthy town officials had heard of the
grievous misdemeanor of childish
laughter in public highways, and had
been Informed that certain young PEG

God of walking in the fields on the
Lords Day, that the statute regulat-
ing penalties for these faults had been
enacted.

POISONED HANDLING DRUGS
Great Care Has to Be Exercised bv
Workmen to Avoid Fatal
Absorption.

1t is a well-known fact that many of
the poisons and chemicals which enter.
into the composition of drugs are capa-
BILE either of being absorbed into the
human system through the hand or af-
fecting it by inhalation, says a paper
of the trade.
SO we'll is this danger recognized that
in all the large drug AID chemical houses
men who are required to work among
such drugs habitually are obliged to
take extra precautions to guard them
selves against danger.
Men engaged in the manufacture of
opium or any of the alkaloids are obliged
to wear "insufflators" to prevent them
from absorbing through the air pas
sages too much of the drugs.
Despite this precaution, these men
occasionally feel themselves getting "a
little dopey," in which case they prompt
ly resort to the fresh air for an hour.
Great care has to be exercised by the
workmen who continually handle mer-
curry or any mercurial preparation. It
is extremely likely to be absorbed
through the pores of the skin.
Workmen are also very liable to be
affected by arsenic and all the arsenates.
This drug gives off fine powder, which
will quickly saturate the system unless
proper precautions are taken.
The manufacture of the cyanide of
potassium and sodium is always attend
ed with very great danger Only thor
oughly experienced men are put on this
class of work. and even they must ex-
ercise the utmost precaution.

10 i-~uI HAGUE CALL.
:. ..ee--..Geat Roosevelt Will Invite Pow
l-s to Second, Peace
Conference.

Washington, Sept. 26.-President
Roosevelt at an early date will ask the
nations of the world to join in a Sec
end congress at The Hague for the pro-
motion OF International arbitration.
The president made this annou 1ce-
ment Saturday afternoon in speech to
the delegates to the Interparliamentary
Union, who had just presented to him
the resolutions adopted by the recent
council in ST. Louis
In the addresses that preceded the
formal presentation of the resolutions,
great stress was laid on the fact that
the action of the United States in re-
ferring the Venezuela controversy to
The Hague tribunal, together with the
Plus fund precedent, alo1e saved the
life of the International organization.
For this reason it was deemed most
fitting that President Roosevelt should
take the initiative in reviving The
Hague conference
81 feel, as l am sure you do" said
President Roosevelt, in his address ac-
cepting the task, that our efforts
should take the shape of pushing for
ward toward completing the work al
ready begun at The Hague and that
whatever is now done should appear
not as something divergent therefrom,
but as continuation thereof"
Further along in his speech the pres
ident said: "a reasonable time has
elapsed and l feel that your party has
shown sound judgment in concluding
that a second conference should now
be called to carry some steps further
toward completing the work of the
first"
Washington, Sept. 27.-President
Roosevelt's announcement on Saturday
to the delegates of the Interparlia-
mentary union, that at an early date
he would invite the nations of the
world to send delegates to "a second
peace conference, whose work should
be supplemental to that of the confer
ence at The Hague, is regarded as a
historic advance toward the adjust
ment of international difficulties
through the medium of arbitration.
Quite naturally, the question arose as
to how soon the president might call
the conference. He did not indicate, in
his address, the probable time of his
issuance of the call, but it can be stated
that he will not await the conclusion
of peace between Japan and Russia,
both signatories to The Hague conven-
ton, before issuing his call. 1t is his
present intention in about six weeks
to bring the matter to the attention of
the nations of the world. with view
to ascertaining their desires as to the
time and place of holding the second
conference. These preliminary in
quiries will be made through the de-
partment of state. AS soon thereafter
as the replies received shall warrant,
the president will issue his formal call
for the conference, which probably will
be early in the coming year.
London, Sept. 27.-European diplo-
mats approved President Roosevelt's
proposal to call peace conference at
The Hague. 1t is believed, however,
that the congress must wait until the
end OF the Russo-Japanese war.

DAILY SHINE FOR TILES.
City Brokers Send Their High Hats
to the Halter Every Day to
Be Ironed.

"These brokers are queer cattle, as a
rule" remarked a dealer in hats in La
Sale street the other day, says the Chi
cago Tribune. "They want their silk
hats to shine all the time as if they were
just out of the factory. Swell young
men about town have that sort of de-
sire, but it doesn't seem to be charac-
teristic of business men generally-ex-
cept in the case of the brokers. Some Of
these brokers have their hats ironed-
or think they do-every day, and have
got SO in the habit of that sort of thing
that have to keep two men who do
nothing else but keep hats in order eth
er by blocking or by ironing"
1t costs from so cents to $3.50 to block
them So the broker escapes the neces-
sity of this expense by going to his hat
ter daily to have them ironed. There is
usually no charge for this service. Iron
ing is supposed to be the running of a
hatters hot iron over the glossy sur
face of the hat. and this always gives a
luster to the tile. 1t doesn't take much
time even when thoroughly done, but
1t does help to do away with the neces-
sity of blocking hat and does in meas
ure help to eat up the profits of hat
ter. So the willy halter has found way
to get even with the brokers.
"Hatters know, but the public gener-
ally DOESN'T said one halter, chow we
get even with these brokers. whose GUS
tom is naturally valuable to us, without
offending these men in any way. Once.
IN awhile we iron the hats, of course.
in order to keep them in good shape, but
generally all we do is to rub them over
with bit of silk warmed until it is quite
hot. That gives the hat the necessary
polish"

MILITIA DISGRACE.
Court Of Inquiry Recommends Dis
missed from Service for Action
During Lynching.

Montgomery, Ala, Sept. 27.-Gov.
the military court Of inquiry appointed
to investigate the conduct of company
F, Alabama national guard, that was
overpowered by the mob at Huntsville,
Ala, which lynched Horace Naples, a
negro. The report, which is signed by
Col. T. S. Fraser Capt. E. D. Smith and
Capt w. F. Walden. recommends that
company F be mustered out for inefti-
cheney and that in the future all officers
be required to pass an examination on
the state military law before receiving
commissions. October IA was the date
fixed for the mastering out of the COM
mand. The court found that Capt R. l..
Hay had no definite plan of action and
that most of the men had no loads in
their guns, though plenty of ammunition
was to be had; also that one sentinel was
overpowered and badly hurt by the mob.
1t was also found that members of the
military company were cursed and as
saulted by the mob after fire was set to
the jail and that they lost their military
identity in the crowds. 1t was further
found that the attack on the Jail found
the military sitting around on the steps
and curbstones eating supper; also that
on the night of the mob there was an en-
lire lack OF concerted effort or plans for
the protection of the Jail or prisoners.
The report concludes: "The combined
shortcomings of the military allowed
life to be taken unlawfully by mob
under circumstances which justify us
in concluding that the same could have
been prevented. thereby rejecting seri-
GUS discredit upon the military called
into the service"
