ELECTION IN SECOND
ORDER ISSUED TO CHOOSE COLO.
 MEL OF REGIMENT.
OmcerS Will Vote on October for Either Colonel Graves or Major Brlcken-Much Interest
 ShOMm.

Capt s. H. Roberts of the Montgom- cry Greys. and Capt. E. F. Baber of the Montgomery Blues, Alabama National Guard, yesterday received copies of an order for an election of a Colonel of the End Regiment. to be held on October 30. The order has been issued after finally satisfying all those who criti- cised the election on September 13.
 The returns of the election on Octo- Der 30 are to be in the hands of Adju- tant- General W. W. Brandon on or be- fore November 3. following. This Is a provision of the order which was issued from the offlce of the Adjutant General last Friday.
 The election will be fraught with for Colonel in the history oi the Regi- ment. The contest s recognized to be between Col. E. H. Graves. the present commander of the Regiment. and Major c. R. Bricken. Had not the cry of fraud been raised when the order for the other election was executed by the various line officers entitled to votes the results would have been known long afore now.
 It will be recalled that on the date named the balloting of the commission ed officers took place according to or der but that objections were raised to the qualifications of certain line officers in the Glrard company. It was de- manded that another elc ti.'n be he. in this company for captain and two lieutenants. This has been done and the res its have baen certified to the AdJutant Generals o.fce. Whether |. will affect the vote as 1t was cast for the colonelcy in September Is not known
 Interest in the race between Colonel Graves of EufauIa, and Major BrickeR F,f .T,.. ity of beth men Is admitted by adhor- ents of the two sides and the contest promises to be a close one Colonel Graves as well as Major Bricken has seen long service in the 2nd Regiment They both have supporters who are loudly predicting the success of tEeir superiors.
 M Mljor Bricken. it may be said. is not candidate to succ cd Colonel Graves He has never ann nounced that he was a candidate. at least, and it IS only his friends who are claiming the election for him. Hs is known to be close friend of Colonel Graves ard for time 1t was believed that ne would not allow his nanie to be used In opposition to the present commander. This belief has been disc 'unted g'od deal of late and t is now regarded as practically certain that the balloting will be for theso two lff.rers.
 At the last encampmeat of the 2nd Regime 1t hare Ia Montgomery the en- tire staff of Colonel Cra'ts resigned f. the suppose pu-poAe If giving him an opportunity to reorganize his staff. There was soma criticism of the camp administration by Colonel Graves and the staff in order to no. he in the way If a reorganization, if such was con templated, is the reason commonly as- signed for tho wholesal.. rcsierations.

COLD CAMPAIGN IN FLORENCE.
Voters Decline to Become Excited Ovex
 Municipal Politics.

Florence. Oct. 14.-(Special.) )-Flor- ence is not living up to her traditions this fall in matters political, and her changed attitude is the subject of a good deal of comment among the old timers. Heretofore municipal elections have caused a mighty stir for months beforehand, but now with choosing of Mayor and Board of Aldermen only @ little more than month distant. there Is profound quiet and even the local papers do not refer to 1t.
 The explanation probably lies In the fact that the two candidates for Mayor are members of the same political family, and the only issue is one of personal popularity. w. F. Mcfarland, who contests the honor with the pres- ent incumbent. Mayor Walker, has, during the latter's two terms, been a member of the City Council. which has been unanimous in it's support of the Mayors policies. This fact makes the coming contest something out of the ordinary.

PADS IN BATHS.

Bath in the Hot Sand-Mtiks Wine and
 Aromatic Water.
 Brooklyn Eagle.
 Of course there are fads in baths One of the latest forms of the eccentricity Is the sand bath. In the open air, be- meath a hot suns rays, the bather bur rows in the sand until he Is completely covered by the golden grains, whence. If we accept the devotees' authority, he emerges after a while with renewed health and energy. As early as the fourteenth century, an Italian, named Glacomo de Dondis advocated the mud bath, and at the present day many flock < to St. Amand-les-Aux in Italy to im- merse themselves for periods varying from half an hour to five hours in the peaty, boggy turf that eomposes the mud or moor" which after treatment, can be easily removed from the skin by a warm douche. Not few celebrities have indulged in the luxury of a milk bath. That famous gambler. the duke of Queensberry, better known as 'Oid O." took one every morning. Another milk bather was Beau Brummel. Pop pea, wife of the tyrant. Nero. kept 800 asses for the purpose of supplying her with milk in which to wash and bathe. Even when banished she still continued the habit. although constrained to con- tent herself with 50 asses only. Isabel of Bavaria was likewise a believer in 1acteaI abiutions. Tn the matter or bathing. however. she had a Catholic taste.
 The bath of Marie Antoinette consist ed of a decoction of serpoiet. laurel leaves. wild thyme and marjoram, to which was added a little sea salt Crushed strawberries and raspberries were to Madame Tallien's taste. To a bath of perfumed water were added twenty pounds of strawberries and two pounds Of raspberries. forming a mix ture that rendered the skin as soft as velvet.
 John Law, the originator of the Mis- a Sfppi bubble scheme. was wont to d to the already perfumed and aro- m .tic water of his bath the yolks of 1S eggs. Wine baths have been of fl Suent use. In France. during the sel nteenth century, they were in sps al vogue among the beauties of the ourt. In payment for the first volt4AAe of Memories du Diable." Fred eric Soulie. the novelist, received from his publisher 1000 louis dor. On his return home he poured the golden coins into his bath. in which he then plung- ed his feet and for half an hour enjoyed this most strange foot bath. smoking the while the finest tobacco.

This winter she Is booked for many readings before schools in New York, New Jersey and Brooklyn. Miss Young talks with feel ing of the hardships which confronts the struggling young women who go to New York to tweed their own row. 50 many are almost starving, she said. She told of one unworldly wise young mountain girl who went to New York with ambition to become an elocutionist and teacher of the art. She had only $40 and that soon gave out. Then she in her ignorance of the cal lous-hearted great of the earth, wrote to ten or more of the great literary lights, told them she was starving and asked for work to make living. She received only one reply. but she did Wilcox who wrote her.
 Don't starve A pint of milk each day will keep you alive"
 But, said Miss Young, the girl did not have the wherewithal to get the pint of milk. However, Mrs. Wilcox looked into the case and helped the girl to help herself. She had her at her receptions, to meet persons who would be of good to her. The result Is that some rich persons are educat- ing her in her chosen line and the girl Is doing we'll
