JULY TICKET SALES
MONTGOMERY RAILROAD DEPOT
 BROKE ALL RECORDS.
WotaI Amount for Month Was $5,742.S2 In Excess of Last Year-These Sales Before Fever
 Scare.

The total amount of money taken in at the ticket office at the Montgomery union passenger station last month broke all previous records and excelled the amount realized in the month of July, 1904, by S7,742.32.
 And this record breaking sale was accomplished without the aid or any yellow fever scare. Minnfhett, the Louisiana lumberman, had not at that time made his memorable visit to Montgomery. The scare which follow ed Minnihett's illness at the Capitola Hotel carae along about the time .ie faonth was closing. z A few figures will serve to show the record breaking railroad ticket sales of July. In JuIy. 1905, the total sales amounted to. $64,660.S0. This Is com pared with the sale of tickets of 1904 b56,91S.43.
 The big sales of July this year coming as they did before the yellow fever, indicates prosperous times in Montgomery.
 The sales of tickets out of Mont gomery during August have been com paratively light, the people having ap- parently decided to stay at home.

trial to their friends, but 1t is well to hold oursleves in. because this very bumptiousness will teach them many things; their sharp edges will soon be knocked off when they rub against others, and if the feeling settles into self reliance by all means encourage it.
 It is quite true that a bought article Is often more valued than one which has been no trouble to get, and so with experience, we are now willing to ben eft by other peoples; but in days gone by we probably thought as the youth of today, that we knew best. and followed our own inclination. with re- suits for which we are now perhaps sorrowing. We often pay a big price for experience, but 1t Is all the more valuable and Is certainly never for- gotten.

 vile.
 State Health Officer w. H. Sanders received official notice yesterday Of the following quarantines against Mont gomery: Hale and Butler Counties; Demopolis, Eufaula, Tuscumbia, Ozark and Pineapple.
 The health officers in charge of quar- antines, city or County, which have not reported the same to tho State Board are violating the State law reg ulating all such measures. They should have reported the quarantines imme- diately upon being declared. There are several towns and counties In this category. The only way for passen gers to those places to find out if they are barred is for them to either make an experimental travel or wire to the locality in question for official infor- nation.
 Local Louisville and Nashville off, cials received notice yesterday that passengers would not be allowed to enter the State of Florida or city of Mobile without health certificates from either the State or city health officer
 Notices were sent in yesterday that Andalusia and Midland City have raised their Quarantines against Mont gomery.
 Refugee Jumped from Car.
 The police of Montgomery and all city and State quarantine officers In this circuit are looking anxiously for an unknown but desperate refugee who jumped through the window of a Western Railway train yesterday even ing at Tysonville, a station about eighteen miles from Montgomery in Macon County, and escaped.
 Trainmaster Andrews here received a telegram yesterday evening" from President c. A. Wickersham of the Western Railway, relating the incident of the man going through the window of the refugee coach. Quarantine Su- pervisor W. R. Brassell was immedi- ately notified as well as the city au- thorities and men were sent to Tyson ville to watch the next freight train from that point to Mon tgomery, ex- pecting the refugee to return to this city. The freight train was not board ed by the stranger and it has caused the city and State officers of Quaran- tine to redouble their vigilance to prevent the man from entering the city limits.
 No other trouble on account of refu- gees was experienced by the quaran- tine guards in and around Montgom- cry yesterday. A number of tramps saying they were from Mobile but suspected of being from New Orleans or some infected point, were picked ur by Officer Chambliss of the State ser vice, and sent out of the State in q hurry.

FOUR PROMINENT ASPiRANTs

Since the announcement yesterday of
the resigne ton Of Morgan Beach as
United States Attorney for the District
of Columbia. candida les for the position
which Mr.. Beach will vacate on August
81 have sprung up like mushrooms. A
lively fight is now or.
Among the frs. NJ mes mentioned in
this connectioc were those OF D. w.
Baker. James S. Esssby-Smith, E. H.
Thomas, and Chaplin Brown. The friends
OF all four OF these attorneys are out
working like beavers, bringing to bear
all the influence they can muster.
D. w. Baker was formerly connected
with the United States Attorneys office
in the capacity of assistant attorney, but
resigned to go into private practice. He
made a success as assistant prosecuting
attorney. Since he resigned he has
criminal courts. He IS a Marylander
by birth and a Republican.
Easby-Smith Democrat.
Mr.. Easily Smith was transferred from
the Department of Justice. where he
was pardon attorney. about six montas
ago, to the office of the District Attorney.
He has been engaged with Mr.. Beach
in a number of important cases recent
ly. AT present he is representing the
Government with Mr.. Beach in the trial
of Andrew A. Lipscomb.
Those who oppose the appointment of
Mr.. Easby-Smith object to him be-
cause. they say. he has always been a
Democrat.
The candidacy of Chapin Brown is
viewed with alarm by the friends OF
the other candidates. 1t is wei known
that Mr.. Brown has a number Of ind
mate friends among Republican Sen
ators and Representatives. If he is
anxious to become Prosecuting Attorney
he can summon strong backing from
the halls of Congress.

CHER OF marriage in her devotion TO an
invalid father until her own health
breaks down. and the efforts of her
sweetheart in restoring her health after
her fathers death, in the hope thut he

by y. Smith. of Baltimore. and Miss
Mary Rogers. of Leesburg, Va, who
disappeared from her room on Saturday
night in her night clothes, and who has
not yet been found. according to Judge
James Cpshur Dennis. who has known
both Miss Rogers and Nr Smith for
rcEsber of years.
Engaged For Years.
Mr. Smith and Miss Rogers had been
engaged for a number OF years. and
we're sweethea-ts for a longer period.
Mss Rogers would never consent to
marry Mr. Smith :,s long as her invalid
father lived. He rec ded care, she said,

this attempt that he took her to Sar-

Temporary Insanity.
Judge Dennis. who has known Miss
Rogers for twenty years, was shocked
at the news OF her disappearance.
II am sure it must be temporary in
sanity, he said. IT knew her when she
was q little girl. and she was one Of the
most charming girls ! ever knew. She
used TO visit the family OF the late
Charles Goldsborough, and often went
to Ocean City with them. and there
saw her frequently and we became good
friends.
II have known Mr. Smith for a num-
Der of years and there is not a more
honorable gentleman to be found any
where. He came to Baltimore from Vir-
ginia and worked as a newspaper re-
porter in Baltimore before he became a
lawyer.
He and Miss Rogers have been sweet
hearts for MANY years and would have
