CROWDS ATTEND
RECEPTION


Entertained.
The throngS OF ladies who attended
the reception given by the National
Biscuit Company Wednesday after.
noon at the Grand Opera house en-
joyed an entertainment that vas not
only unique in the history of this city
but was also unusual in the benefits
conferred upon the guests. From a
social point of view, the affair was a
pronounced success, while the benefits
OF better acquaintance with the pro-
ducts of the National Biscuit Com
pany will be shared alike by the hosts
and those who enjoyed their hospi-
tality.
The thorough preparations that had
been made for the reception were
most apparent in the interior of the
hall. Purple and white, the National
Biscuit Company's colors, were every
where in evidence, suggesting the
purple and white package of Uneeda
Biscuit, one of the best and best
known of the Company's products.
In every available nook and corner
were ornamental displays consisting
of artistic arrangements of the pack
ages containing the various delicacies
that have made the fame of National
Biscuit Company. The golden yellow
Of the Lemon Snap formed harmoni-
Gus contrast with the bright red
packages Of Graham Crackers and the
royal purple and white of the Uneeda
Biscuit. But all these and many
other good things were put to better
purpose than decoration. The de-
lighted guests we're served with re-
freshments, which included besides
products mentioned, other triumphs
Of the bakers art such as Butter Thin
Biscuit, Oysteretts, Zu Zu Ginger
Snaps and others, all of which have
their purity and goodness guaranteed
by the trademark of the National
Biscuit Company on each end of the
package.
Two most delicious confections
were served as desSert-Nabisco Sugar
Waters and Festino Almonds. These
deserve special mention, forming as
they do, class by themselves.

this reception express themselves as
delighted by the enthusiastic interest
manifested by the ladies of this city,
and the hearty cooperation of the
REPORTER and other papers in con-
tributing to the success of the

Illustration of the merit of the pro-
ducts of the National Biscuit Com
panY.

Jackson County Courthouse Will Be BuiIt-MOnrOe Carwile Gets New Trial-Judgment
 for Mrs. Jones.

The Supreme Court of Alabama yes terday handed down several important opinions, received a number or cases from the Sixth Division, composed of North Alabama counties, and adjourned until 10 o'clock this morning.
 An opinion handed down by the court of great interest to North Alabama was in the appeal of w. J. Tally and others against the County Commission CTS of Jackson County from the Jack son Chancery Court. This was case wherein MT. Tally and his associates sought to restrain the County Commls- sioners from spending $S5,OO0 in build ing a new courthouse TOT the county. The contract for the courthouse had been awarded to B. B. Smith of Mont gomery, as architect, and Dobson & Bynum of Montgomery as builders, and work on the building was well under way when it was stopped by the litiga- ton.
 The Chancery Court held that the Commissioners were authorized to build the courthouse and spend the money and denied the petition of MT Tally and his associates. The Su- preme court affirms the opinion of the Chancery Court and work on the court house will proceed.
 The opinion of the Supreme Court in the Jackson County case was written by MT. Chief Justice Mcclellan.
 In an opinion by MT. Justice Tyson the judgment secured by Mrs. Gertrude Jones of Birmingham against the Southern Railway, in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County. was affirmed. This means that the Southern Railway must pay to Mrs. Jones, as administratrix of the estate of Ebert N. Jones, $16,- 900 damages for the death of the lat ter

 By decision of the Supreme Court yesterday E. Monroe Carwile, a well knowa white man of Marshall County, convicted of murder and sentenced to ninety-nine years imprisonment, gets a new trial. The appeal was based on legal technicalities ard in an opinion by MT Justice Anderson the decision of the Circuit Court of Marshall County was reversed and remanded.
 CarWile shot and killed P. H. Snow, a prominent citizen of Marshall Coun- tv. about nine months ago. The two men were driving along the road in buggy near Boaz. Carwile said that his gun was accidentally discharged. The evidence against him was cIrcum- stantial and a jury fixed his punish ment at imprisonment for ninety-nine years.

Cotton Crop Encnnen.

Tuscumbia, April 1s.--(Specia1) A heavy frost and ice last night played havoc with early vegetation in this city and vicinity. Young corn was severely nipped. while the strawberry crop was badly injured. Tender vege- tables, such as beans, potatoes, toma- = toes and like kind, were killed, and will necessitate replanting. Fortu- nately, the cotton crop was beyond the reach of the freeze. Otherwise it would have shared the same fate of the more advanced crops.
