Knights of Columbus.


 There is a great deal of interest be- ing manifested by local Catholics in the approaching installation of local chapter of Knights of Columbus next Sunday.
 This order is comparatively a new one in Alabama, having been estab- lished in this State only short time. yet it has developed marvellous strength during that period Flourishing councils have been in- stituted in Montgomery, Mobile and Birmingham and there are several smaller councils in the State.
 The order has for its principal ob- tect the binding together of Catho- lies everywhere. and none but members of this church can be admitted into Its councils. A great deal of non-secta- rian charity Is done by the order cises an excellent moral influence in every community where one of its To- cal chapters Is located.
 Prominent among those who have worked untiringly for the establish ment of the order here are J. J. O'Rourke. D. F. Jacob, John Booth, M Shanley and Rev, Father Thomas Mad den. and about half hundred Catho- lies have made application for mem- bership.
 The installation services will be con- ducted by Acting State Deputy Grand Master F. E. Kuhne of New Haven. Conn.,. and will take placc in the Dra- goons's hall on Alabama Street.
 Special and beautiful solemn services will be held at the church of the As- sumption on that day. and a great many visitors, Catholic and non- Cath olic, are expected to attend on that oc- casion. At 9:45 a. m. all the visiting knights and applicants for member ship will attend tins mass in a body and Father Madden will deliver a special sermon touching on the beau- ties and benefits of the order. At o'clock in the morning all the appli- cants for membership will attend holy communion in a body. and the Young Ladies' Sodality Society will also ap- proach holy Eucharist at that time.

 There was a gretna green wedding last night at the parsonage of the Wa ter Street Methodist Church. Will Lu- cas and Miss Maimie Hancock were the contracting parties. The young couple left the home of the latter, saying they were going to dance at Elkdale Park. They attended the dance at the park, but first went to the parsonage where Rev. J. w. McGlawn made them man and wife. At the dance they notified their friends and hearty congratula- tions were showered upon them.
 John Creagh. a member of the Ab- bolt Rifles, reached home today from Camp Jelks. He states that company gets most of the applause on the field and that one of the regulars was heard to remark the other day that not only was the Selma company the best on the field but drilled more like regulars than any National Guard company he had ever seen. The boys are pardonably puffed up over the nice things said about them.

These things, says the Republican, all indj. cate the prosperity of the country and while money has been scarce for some time, it only proves that it was scarce because people were using it to good purpose instead of locking it up in the cellar. It should not be forgotten also that there has been much greater in. vestment of local capital in local ep. terprises this year than ever occurred before, hundreds of people in the val. ley having bought and partly or whol. ly paid for real estate and other hold. ingS.

P0ST0FFICE AT FLORENCE
 DESTROYED BY FIRE

About o'clock Friday morning smoke was seen issuing from the post. office building in different places. An alarm was given and soon men with fire extinguishers and the bucket brig ade were at the scene. When the doors were burst open, the inside was found to be mass of flames. The fre had evidently smOldereG for hours, for ev. erything in the building was almost a complete loss and the walls and roof were badly damaged. The building is owned by W. Y. Price and the loss on fixtures and building will probably amount to $500.
 Postmaster Niemyer was reticent in regard to the m itter. He had no idea how the fire originated nor the extent of the loss. From other sources it is learned that MT. Niemyer is in the habit of taking all the valuables from the postotfice each evening to a place of greater security. He has been par ticularly careful lately on account of the large money order business trans acted during the holiday season, and, as consequence, with the exception of the destruction of the fixtures, which were somewhat ancient, and the damage to the building, which is almost antediluvian, the loss was tri- fling.
 The poStoffice will for the present be located in the Michea building Florence Blade.

Don't Be a knocker

If there's chance to boom business boom it. Don't be knocker. Don't pull long face and look as if you had a sour stomach. Hold up your head, smile and hope for better things. Hide your little hammer and try to speak well of others, DO matter how small you may really know yourself to be.
 When a stranger drops in,jolly him. Tell him this Is the greatest town on earth-and it is. Don't discourage him by speaking ill of your neghbors or of opposition firms. Lead him to believe that he has at last struck the place where white people live. Don't knock.
 Help yourself along by becoming popular, and push your friends with you. It's dead easy.
 Be good fellow and soon you'll have procession of followers. No man ever helps himself by knocking other people down in character or business. No man ever got rich by trying to make others believe he was the only good man in town who knows 
 You can't climb the ladder of sue cess by treading on other peoples corns. You're not the only pebble on the beach. There are others, and they have brains as we'll as you. There is no end of fun in minding your own business. It makes other people like you. Nobody gets stuck on knocker. Don't be one--or two.-Ex.

ATTORNEY APPOINTMENT
 CAUSES DISAGREEMENT

The board of supervisors has been wrestling with the ''back taxes'' prop osition the past few days, and today locked horns with the county treas. urer over an appointment of the lat. tor which the board turned down on what seems to be purely partisan grounds.
 The new delinquent tax" law pro- vides that the treasurer and tax col lector shall appoint such counsel as he may deem necessary to bring suits for the collection of delinquent taxes back to the year 1891, said attorney to re. ceive as compensation for such serv- ices an amount not exceeding 25 per cent of the money so collected and turned into the county treasurer.
 To institute these proceedings, Coun- ty Treasurer Sanguienetti appointed Attorney P. T. Robertson, but the board, 1t seems, has candidate of it's own-Attorney c. L. Brown, and has so far refused to endore the treasurer $ appointment.
 Under the law the treasurer evident ly has the best of it, as he is desig- mated as the appointing power, while the board 5 only province seems to be to officially recognize the treasurer's appointment, and approve of terms made for the service, etc. The board declines to approve, while the treas urer, at this writing, stands pat. So, there you are.-Yuma Sentinel.

had been out of doors for some days. It will be membered, says the En. terprise, that the lad received a gun shot wound in the head some time ago, and pains in his head were supposed to have been the result of that. An X-ray examination went to prove that se- were fall the youngster had sustained some time before had fractured his skull, and that the gunshot wound had not penetrated. An apparently suc- cessful operation was performed, and the boy was pronounced we'll. Yester- day he was suddenly taken i'll with vi- olent pains in the head and died soon afterward. The physicians are now wondering whether there was not bullet in his head after all, since the fracture was healed.
 The Phoenix Republican states that although the tax rate in Maricopa county for 1903 was 21 cents lower than for the preceding year and the assessment less, nevertheless a larger proportion of taxes have been paid. Ia 1902 the total assessment was $273.- oo9.67. Of which $228, .22 was col. lected by December 26, leaving $46,. s92.45 delinquent. Last year the as- sessment was smaller, being $26S, ,O63 P.
