The University School has arranged with Prof. W. B. Patty to deliver his lecture on Radium, Liquid Air, and Wireless Telegraphy at the Montgom- cry Theatre, Wednesday night, March 29th.
 Nothing for many years has created so great a sensation in the scientific world as has this marvellous discovery of Mime. and H. Curie of Paris. Many strange things are in this big world of ours, but not even the most visionary scientist or perpetual motion crank" ever dreamed of the existence of a sub stance possessing the wonderful quali- ties accredited to Radium. That its cost is far over $5,000.000 per pound, and advancing rather than diminishing, only goes to illustrate how scientists, physicists and physicians are strug- gling to obtain 8 supply of the precious mineral. Heat, light and sensations are constantly given off by this substance, yet scientists affirm that after a hum dred thousand years of this ceaseless energy the Radinm will not have di- unfinished more than a thousandth part of its original size, weight and strength, and that 1t will require mill lions of years to exhaust itself. New discoveries regarding 1t are being fre- quently made, and it may eventually be used in scores of ways beneficial to hu- manity. Prof. W. B. Patty Is to lecture here on the subpect Wednesday night, March 29 and all will then have chance to see this much discussed Ra- dium, and witness some of the marvel ous things it does. With the many experiments promised with this and other scientific marvels. the evening should prove of fascinating interest and great instruction to young and old.
 Radium costs over $5,o00, ,0o0.o0 per pound, and 1t is not expected that Pro- lessor Patty carries a trunk full of it, but it is a fact that he will bring a suf- ficient supply of the marvellous sub stance to show the audience. and to ex- pertinent with, at the Montgomery Theatre, Wednesday, March 29. All have read of the great sensation created by this discovery. and none should miss the rare opportunity to gain first hand knowledge of such remarkable phe- nOmena. -adV..

IDENTIFICATION UNCERTAIN.
Many Confederate Flags Cannot be Re-
 turned Where They Belong.

Many Confederate Flags Cannot be Re-
 turned Where They Belong.
 Washington, March 1S.-(Spscial. J. The War Department authorities fear that 1t will be impossible for them to identify a majority of the Confederate battle flags captured by the Union forces during the Civil War and now stored in the flag room of the depart ment.
 Although every possible means Is being taken by Major General Fred c. Ainsworth, the military secretary who has charge of the return of these flags under the provisions of the joint res- olution of Congress. 1t Is said at the war department that there are more flags which 1t seems impossible to identify than there are whose former owners are known
 In speaking of this matter today General Ainsworth said: T am doing everything possible to find at least the States from which these unidentified flags came. Each flag Is being care fully examined but it now seems clear that a majority of the captured flags will go unclaimed until some means of identifying them not now known should present itself Of course, un- less a flag is identified in some way 1t cannot be returned and will have to. remain stored in its present place in the flag room and war depart ment.
 There will, as have said before. be no ceremony at the war depart ment in connection with the return of identified Confederate flags. All that will be done is to write a letter to the governors of the various States having flags notifying them that, in accordance with the provisions of the joint resolution of Congress, their flags are returned.

neWS of be Stage

tan critics.
 The success of this production might. indeed, have been predicted. in view of the fact that the original French drama from which it has been adapted, 'Ie Chemineau" of Jean Richepin, scored a decisive hit at the Paris Odeon | a number of seasons ago and has held a recognized rank on the French stage ever since as one of It's best modern plays. Beerbohm Tree. the celebrated actor manager of London, produced 1t as Ragged Robin." his version being one of the notable events of recent
 English season.
 MT. skinners American version has proved, from all accounts, to be an ad- mirable transplanting of this recog- nized masterpiece to our stage, and local play-goers will no doubt be glad | to learn that they will soon have the opportunity of witnessing the piece, di-
 rect from its triumph at the Lyric, with the same expert cast and beautiful pro- duction. at the Montgomery Theatre Thursday night.
 Otis skinner himself has long been
 welcome as a sterling and scholarly actor and as a graceful and masterly
 portrayer, in particular. of poetic and
 romantic roles. Of his most recent
 achievements the playgoers will read | fly recall those of the Lost Dauphin
 in 'Lazarre," the love-tortured Lanci-
 otto in "Francesca da Rimini," the low able scapegrace, Charles Surface. in
 "The School for Scandal" the dashing
 wife-tamer. Petruchio, in 'The Tanning
 of the Shrew," and--in the higher tragic
 realm of Shakespearean effort-the
 sombre figure of the vengeful shylock. In his new role of The Harvester" | by which title the hero of this Riche-
 pin play Is known throughout. MT.
 Skinner has a decidedly novel charac- terization. q footlight creation that is
 new to the American stage. It Is that of a gipsy-spiirted wanderer of the
 highways, a roamer of the roads. a happy go-lucky, debonair young fellow
 who is always seeking fresh adventures and fresh schemes along the open road.
 During one cheerful autumn with the
 reapers in the golden wheat fields of
 French Canada he wins the heart of a pretty farm lass. and the romance (and
 almost heart tragedy) which results
 transforms the merry. care-free stroll | CT into & true. noble type of manhood and fatherhood. Tn his struggles to
 redeem an original wrong he becomes
 dramatically appealing figure, full of
 human interest and ranging through
 the whole gamut of poesy, romance,
 emotion and fantasy, including humor-
 ous magic working and even pictur- esque melodrama-

FARMERS SELLING COTTON.
Lauderdale Producers Throwing Staple
 on the Market.


 Florence, March 1S.-(Special. )-The
 various appeals to planters to hold their | cotton have had little effect on the | farmers of Lauderdale County, who are marketing their crops as fast as they can be brought to town. One planter who lives just across the State line in Tennessee brought in fifty five bales Monday, for which he re- ceived $2,000. It Is estimated that fully -f5 per cent. of the crop in this county has been marketed, and the local buyers are contracting for large amounts for immediate delivery. On Monday the criminal docket of the lLauderdale Circuit Court will be taken | up and a number of important cases | disposed of. The grand jury will com plete its work and make its report to Judge Almon tomorrow.
 Thomas David Pruitt, a we'll known citizen of Lauderdale County, died last night at 9:30 o'clock at his home in Pruitton. aged s2 years.
 The deceased was a farmer and mer- chant and a member of the Florence Lodge. F. and A. M. He made an hon. | orable record as a soldier, fighting with | the Confectionery through the entire war. MT. Pruitt is survived by a widow and seven children, W. H., T. L., J. A. | and George, and Mrs. Sallie Goad. Mrs. Polly Lyles and Miss Lizzie, all of this lcounty.
 The funeral will take place tomorrow at II o'clock, when the remains will be inferred in Mt. Tabor Cemetery. James F. Koonce. County Superin- | tendent of Education, has announced | the places and dates for the Teachers Institutes for the scholastic year, 1905. The first will be held at Mars Hill in May, the second at Lexington in July, and the third at Waterloo in Septem- Der. Several men of prominence in the State have consented to address the in | stitutess> .. Mayor A. E. Walker yesterday re- ceived a reply from Passenger Traffic Manager S. H. Hardwick of the South ern Road, to the petition signed by a large number of leading citizens and business men of Florence. relative to the night train service between Tus- cumbia and Florence. MT. Hardwick replied that the matter was plainly one which the Sheffield Company should ar range and decide.
 With the present schedule passengers larriving in Tuscumbia on the night trains are compelled to wait until 4 o'clock in the morning for a train into Florence and all requests to the Shef- | field company to have electric cars meet the night trains have been met with refusal. The citizens of Florence have been advised by the Sheffield company that 1t was a matter to be determined by the Southern Railway, and they are beginning to feel like the corporations are playing battledore and shuttlecock with them.

Dramatic Treat Monday.

What promises to be a performance surpassing anything of local descrip- tion ever offered in this city Is scheduled for a presentation at the Montgomery Theatre tomorrow night for the benefit of the organized chari- ties.
 Over sixty people will participate in a triple offering.
 The performance commences prompt ly at the usual hour with Dion Bou- cicault's famous and exquisite military gem in three scenes 'The Open Gate" The plot of this historic play is formu- lated from incidents connected with the Civil War, dealing carefully, correctly and vividly with events of that period. Characters true to life, situations of heart interest adequate costuming and a general ensemble of realism and sim- plicity recall refreshing and happy memories of patriotic occurrences of years ago.
 This portion of the performance Is in the hands of dramatic organization lately promoted by Miss Mary Kirkpat- rick. '"The Open Gate" will be their initial attempt, and much may be ex- pected.
 An olio of carefully selected vaude- vile talent of a superior nature, such as singing. dancing introducing an ex- cellent chorus comes next followed by the laugh provoking comedy, What a Woman Can Do."
 This Is the same extremely bright offering ass presented at the Standard Club Theatre a few weeks ago. This charming play evoked unlimited praise for it's excellsncy, and the cleverness of the participants. The production, unlike numbers of local amateur af- fars, was entirely devoid of all the usual attending, faltering errors and general mishaps. and was extraordi- narily surprising for the rapidity of action, perfect portrayal of expression and undeniable propensities for thoroughly entertaining. As a whole it was adjudged more of a professional offering than an amateur affair.
 The performance was originally scheduled for Thursday, March Is. The same date was applied for later by Miss Viola Allen in The Winters Tale" As 1t was Impossible for the managers of the Montgomery Theatre to secure Miss Allen for any other night during the season and rather than have the amusement lovers of this city miss the opportunity of seeing its favorite star the local amateurs deter mined to postpone their production un- til Monday, March 20.
 The entire offering tomorrow night Is under the direction of the dramatic instructor, H. c. Godshaw.

Popular Mail Carrier Thrown From
 Vehicle by Runaway Horse.

Popular Mall Carrier ThROWn EToH
 Vehicle by Runaway Horse.
 While on his route, about 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon Claude McRea, one of the best known and most popular mail carriers of Montgomery was thrown violently from his buggy on Highland Avenue and was so painfully injured that he will be confined to his residence at 323 North Hull Street some time.
 Mir. MoRea was driving a spirited horse which he had recently purchased and the animal became frightened and ran away on Highland Avenue. When near Maggie Street on the avenue Mir McEea tried to drive the animal across the street car tracks so as to clear an approaching vehicle. The shock of striking the car tracks threw the mail carrier to the ground rendering him unconscious. The frightened animal continued on his course bringing the buggy against a tree and breaking the shafts. The horse fell himself and was injured. but not seriously.
