Malay Literature.

The Malay tribes possess but little In
the way of literature, the greater part,
like that of Java, consisting Of rO-
mances known under the Sanskrit
name of "cheritra," or the Arabic one
Of "hikayat" Their subjects are taken
from the HindoO epics, from the local
legends OF Java, from the Mohammedan
tales from Arabia and from the stories
Of Malay princes, hardly less fabulous.
Such compositions differ from those Of
the Javanese in that the greater mum,
Der Of them are in prose. The Malays
are possessed of no ancient manu-
scripts or inscriptions on stone or
brass. Their whole literature, all in
the Arabic character, is certainly not
Of greater antiquity than their CONVEX
sion to the Mohammeda1 religion, the
earliest recorded specimen of it being
the vocabulary Of the Italian Piga-
fetta, collected in the AIoluccas in 1921.

BALDWIN COURT
HOUSE MIDDLE
SHERIFF UNBOSOMS HIMSELF
REGARDING CONFLICT or
AUTHORITY m ALABA-
MA COUNTY.

4 The Mobile Register Of yesterday
says:
. On the Gay following Circuit judge
Brownies letter to Sheriff Armstrong
Of Baldwin county, ordering him TO
prepare for holding court at Daphne
In October, the sheriff was in Mobile
and would make no statement 10 the
newspapers except that he would
perform his duty under orders. How
ever, in Montgomery Sheriff Arm
strong unbOsomed himself to the Ad-
vertiseh as follows:
The question is in a bad muddle
for this reason: The probate Judge
has secured the advice of Hon. r. H.
Clarke of Mobile in regard TO where
the county court should be held Mr.
Clarke gave a written opinion in
which ne said the county court should
he held at Bay Minette and the circuit
court also, until the supreme court
shall have decided otherwise. In view
Of this decision of such a careful and
conscientious man as Probate Judge
j. H. H. Smith, on the advice of such
AZ able attorney as Mr.. Clarke, l do
not see why I should take any action
in the matter, because if / move the
records Of my Office to Daphne 1 could
not attend county court. would like
&c obey both judges. but when one
orders court in Daphne and the other
in Bay Minette I cannot do So"
Sheriff Armstrong said there were
several barriers in the way of holding
court in Daphne, the first OF which
was that he did not have the custody
o. the county property at Daphne, it
having been placed in the custody OF
another party by an order of the coun-
" commissioners. Another drawback
is that he mas no authority TO contract
TO expend the money OF the county for
such purposes except on the order Of
the county commissioners. He says
he has written a letter to each of the
asking what they in
tend 10 do in the premises. but has not
yet received a reply from any Of them.
An interesting phase OF the situation
is a contest for the Office of coroner,
the two factions of the county believ-
ing that if the sheriff is disqualified
the coroner would hold the balance oil
power.
For several years Baldwin county /
las been without a coroner. Recent |
" E. Q. Norton, leader Of the Daphne |
forces, applied to Governor jerks for |
appointment to the place. The Bay
Minette people learned Of this move or
he part of their Daphne frienos and
A. D. McPhail of Bay Minette was
and sent out upon the tracks I
10 contest with Mr.. Norton for the OIL
ice Of coroner.
Governor jerks effectually disposed
IF the race for coroner of Baldwin by
that he would not appoint
my one to the vacancy until the court
house matter was adjusted finally.

SURVEY Of THE

COMPLETED
Preliminary Work Gives Assurance
that Drainage Plan Will
Be a Success.

The last issue of the Fl Pierce

/ tive to the preliminary survey fol
F drainage If the Evsrgiades:
The preliminary SURVEY in the
/ great project 70 drain the Everglades
has been completed. and Surveyor j
o. Fries is now enroute TO Tallahas
see to present his report to the gov
ernOr. and other members Of the state
internal improvement fund commits

Mr. Fries. in company with Jack
Keen. w. N. Meredith. Bud Raul
eIson, Tom Lee and Morgan Swain
as assistants, and Milledge RaulersOn
and VIII Cubbege as te9msters, left
Fort Pierce on August is. to COM
mence this work, going from here 70
White City, where they crossed the
St. LUcie river, and followed down
the north fork until they reached
Winters creek. which is four miles
from Stuart-on-the-St Lucie. At this
point the survey was commenced. and
all the territory between here and
Lake Okechobee was thoroughly COW
cred.
The survey was completed last Fri.
day. making a total of p days con-
sumed In the work, which Mr.. Fries
informed the Tribune was most diff
fcull, as the entire ground covered
was under water, and rain fell almost
every day.
Lake Okechobee was found to be
quite high, and the water level is q
feet above the water level in the st.
Lucie river, although at ordinary con-
ditions the difference would be about
10 feet. The distance Of the survey
from Winters creek. OF the St. Lu-
Gle river to Lake Okechobee is % IA
miles. which with 19 feet fall allows
almost a foot to the mile, which
would be most ample TO successfully
drain the entire Everglades.
Mr.. Fries reports that starting from
Winters crek. the land has a gradual
rise until the great OkechObee fat
are passed, when the country is
rather steep, reaching an altitude of
over 40 feet above the St. Lucie river
at the brow Of Lake Okechobee.
While this survey is only a prelim-
mary one, much information Of great
value has been collected. which viii
DC used IOr future surveys, II deemed
and viii be a deciding fac
tor in locating the canal
Il IS the opinion Of those who have

most practical route. as the fall is far
greater than could be found at any
other point, and as 1t is Governor
BrOward's determined purpose to &C.
