" HIGH GtuNC
 Columbiana March 10.-(Special)- Referring to the late apoiisnment ol the Huntsville Land Office, and the re- moval of the records to Montgomery | it may be of some interest to recall the fact that in 1892 a land office for the | "Coosa Land District" was established in Montevallo, this county, of which Joab Lawler was receiver. to accept
 which he resigned his position as State Senator. He had formerly been County Judge. The removal of this
 land office to Mardisville. two years later. took Judge Lawler from Shelby ! County, he becoming receiver Of the jconsolidated office. Subsequently there was another consolidation with the Le- banon, Dekalb County, Office and that
 In turn with the Huntsville office.

 the M. E. Church. South, will meet
 in Columbiana on May 11th. and will
 be in session four days. The pastor
 of the church here. Rev. G 1T. Harris
 Is already beginning to make arrange
 ments for the conference, and in his efforts Is ably seconded by all our peo-
 pie. The church Is to be remodeled and
 1t Is hoped to have 1t done before the conference meets. Sunday. the closing
 day of the conference, will be the be- ginning of the commencement of the Columbiana graded schools, and the Sunday sermon will be the commences ment sermon for the schools.
 Mrs. W. H. Bird was stricken with paralysis of the brain few days ago. and at first fears were entertained that she would not recover. but she Is now improving She is sixty-seven years old, and this Is the second attack she has sustained.
 The people of Columbiana are very much interested In the proposed Bir- mingham. Columbus and St. Andrews Railroad. The town council has made on offer of $10, 900 in cash and the right | of way, together with an exemption | from taxation for a period of years. The town is greatly in need of a direct line to Birmingham >on the north, and an outlet to Southern maEkets. Colum- Diana can be counted on as carrying very long pole when 1t comes to reaching after the Birmingham. Colum- bus and St. Andrews Railroad.
 Shelby Srpings, the pretty summer resort near here, has been leased by J. A. Mcknight. of Birmingham. and he will at once take possession. A num- Der of Improvements are to be made, and it is thought everything will be ready for visitors by April 18th. at which time the resort will be opened. MT. Mcknight was in Columbi- ana today and closed the deal. He con- templates keeping the place open the year round. and will make an effort to have northern people spend two or | three weeks of the winter months with him.
 John J. Haynes of Columbiana will deliver the commencement address at Lineville College, in Clay County. in May. MT Haynes is an interesting
 talker and the pupils of Lineville Col
 lege will not be disappointed in their expectations to hear something good.

ConI Mines Improvements.

A great amount of work Is being done by the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad Company. improving mines Nos 4 and near Ensley.
 At No. 5, all the slope has been sup piled with new ties and the track re- laid with sixty and eighty pound rails.
 Foundations are being put in for a mammoth power house which will sup ply electricity for the operation of electric haulage systems being in- stalled at Nos. and 5, and No. the same kind of power house will be built and that new mine equipped with the most modern system of haul age and lighting.
 Practically no attempt has been made to mine coal at No. since the strike was called last July, but good force of men has been kept at work putting the mine In shape. Coal Is be- ing lifted at Nos. and 8. but with what success cannot be learned.
 When all the Improvements under way are carried to completion the Ten nessee Company will be in shape to mine a hundred per cent more coal. with settled labor conditions than was possible at these mines under the old system. In addition to the work be- ing done in the mines the company has just completed nearly two hun dred houses for the use of mine op- eratives. It is reported that the con- struction of more houses Is under con- sideration. Ensley is destined soon 10 become the center of the mine in- dustry of the Birmingham district as 1t is already the iron and steel center.
