 Boone's Visit Deferred.
 The determination of MT. Zell of Bir- mingham to build great power house at Lock 3, having secured the property of George B. Randolph for that purpose, and the building of an electric line into the city of Anniston, has caused Albert Boone, who contemplated coming to An niston on the 11th, to defer his visit, since the success of the project of MT. Boone depended on securing power rights al Coosa river. An effort will now be made to have these two gentlemen confer to- gether and If possible amicably agree upon some plan of operation.
