 Bell as he was professionally known In college walks, was in every way worthy negro. being of type that Is fast disappearing. Competent rellaoIe' honest, courteous. seIf-respecting, he was an ideal servant. Large sums or money were entrusted to him implic- itIy. He held the confidence and the directions of the entire faculty and the multitude of students who had known him. He first came to Auburn with Col. Wm. H. Chambers. from Russell County. Trained by one of the old time Southern families, old Joe had absorbed many of the fine qualities of courtesy and dignity that character ized the old-time Southern gentleman. His funeral was conducted yesterday. the college bell being tolled during the services. Representatives of the en- tire faculty were in attendance.

AS TO DlSPENSARIES
SUPREME COURT HOLDS THEY CAN
 NOT BE LEVIED UPON.
Opinion Declares that Edwardsvtlle Liquor Emporium was a Public Institution and Loan Com
 Dany Cannot Collect.

The status of dispensary property in Alabama was decided by the Supreme Court yesterday morning which, speak- Ing through Justice Denson, held that no levies can be made on the stock or appurtenances of a liquor emporlu" under State management.
 The case that brought about the lrn- portant decision was an appeal by the Equitable Loan and Security Company from the Cleburne County Court. The company had a judgment against the town of Edwardsville for $500 on ac- count of the dispensary which was established in the town by the Legls- lature in 1899.
 The Loan and Security Company at tempted to levy on the stock or whis- key in the dispensary. An oroer TOT an execution to issue was sought ID the County Court, but 1t was denied py the judge and an appeal was tahen " the Supreme Court.
 The Supreme Court held that in its corporate capacity a dispensary au- thorized by the Legislature and oper- ated by a municipality cannot be levieo upon.
 i've think 1t is well settled" says Justice Denson, that the Legislature in dealing with the sale of intoxlcat- ing liquors is fulfilling public duty' that it is striving to promote the health, safety and morals of the com munity; that in the establishment of the dispensary it constitutes public object, use or purpose in the promotion of which public money may De la"iui- 1y invested and expended.
 The stock of a dispensary is consid- cred to be the peoples property held in trust by the municipality.
 I've have seen," continues Justice Denson's opinion, that the liquors sup piled by the town to the dispensary were necessary for the carrying on ot the dispensary and that the dispensary was public or municipal concern a governmental function; it would seem to follow, therefore, that the stock of Iiauors would be held in trust by the municipality for use, in which the pub lie is concerned. it's welfare promoted and the functions of the government discharged"
 The decision of the Cleburne County Court was affirmed.

LIVELY SECURES BAL
SUPREME COURT AFFIRMs THE
 LOWER COURT.
Mine Superintendent of Jefferson COun- ty, Who Has Been ln Jail for
 Killing willis A. Whitner.

After a fight lasting for nearly a year, Joe Lively, Superintendent of the Arcadia Mines ot the Pratt Coal Com pany, yesterday was admitted to bail in the sum of 32.00O by a decision of the Alabama Supreme Court.
 Lively has been in the Jefferson County jail since the early part of last year on the charge of murdering Willis A. Whitner a miner, near Coalburg Whitner was shot down near his home by Superintendent Lively. who was fired upon by the former first, accord ing to eye witnesses.
 The shooting attracted a great deal of attention in District 20, United Mine Workers of America, on account of the sensational circumstances.
 Superintendent Lively and two friends, W. Y. Mann and Hack Daniel were driving in a buggy between Bir- mingham and Arcadia, when they saw a queer object hanging to the limb of a tree near the house of Whitner AS they approached within a few feet the dangling object was readily identified as an effigy of Lively.
 One of the three, as the buggy drove under the tree, reached up and plucked down the lower extremities of the ef- figy. As he reached up to pull down the remainder of the image, pistol shots rang out from behind. Superintendent Lively wheeled in his seat and drawing his revolver shot at Whitner who was crouched behind the buggy. Whitner was fatally hit by one of Lively's bull lets. He soon died.
 Superintendent Lively Is cripple and, according to one account of the trouble, Whitner. who was ahgered at Lively, the day before he was killed. stopped the latter's wife who was pass ing and derisiveIy pointed out the ef- hgy of her husband.
 Judge Coleman on a habeas corpus hearing, admitted Lively to bail and the decision was affirmed by the Su- preme Court yesterday

NEW COUNTY IS SAFE
SUPREME COURT UPHoLDs ACT
 CREATING IT.
The Legislature Did Not Err in Estab- fishing Houston County-Opin- ton Was Written by Justice
 DOWdeII.

Houston County is safe. The Ala bama Supreme. Court yesterday de- clared constitutional the act of the Legislature creating it.
 The sixty-seventh County of the State had been attacked on the same aboo" of many other systems. It was alleged that there was insufIicient ad- vertisement of the act as required by Section 10s of the new Constitution.
 The case in which an attack was made on the Houston County law was that of Gus Law against the State of Alabama. The defendant Is charged in Houston County with obtaining money under false pretenses. He pe- titioned for his liberty on habeas cor pus proceedings before the judge of the Twelfth Judicial Circuit. his coun- sel assailing the act creating the Coun- ty.
 This proceeding, if successful, would have nullifed the warrant on which Law was arrested and which was is- sued by the Houston County Probate Judge.
 The Supreme Court, however, held that the act did receive sufficient mo- tice as contemplated by the Constitu- ton.
 The opinion was written by Justice Dowdell. He holds that in the crea- 'tion of a new County it is not neces- sary to give in the notice of an inten- tion to apply for the law what the boundary lines will be. Section 39 of Article 2, of the Constitution, grants the Legislature power to carve an ex- tra County out of Henry, Dale and Geneva counties so that at least 800 square miles shall remain in the three old counties.
 Justice Dowdell says that it would be practically impossible to create any more new counties if, as counsel for the defendant claims, the notice of ad- vertisement must contain both the name of the proposed County and the exact limits of territory to be em- braced. It is held that the essence or substance of the act was given in the notice of the bill creating Houston County and that is what Is looked for in Section 106 of the new Constitution.
 If, In stating the Substance of the proposed law in notice given by pri- vate persons for the creation of a new County" says Justice D0wdell, "it be required that the boundaries of such proposed new County shall be fixed and defined in such notice, for reasons that naturally and readily suggest themselves to the common mind, if would become next to, if not fmpossi- ble to ever create new County in this State.
 Every change made by the Legisla- ture in fixing and defining the boun- daries from that given in the notice would be fatal to the enactment of the statute"
 The Houston County act Is one of the few local laws of the last Legis- lature which have stood the test of the Supreme Court successfully. If was originally intended = name Hous- ton County Liberty County.

Letter from Secretary of Short Horn
 Breeders AssOciatlOn.
 Auburn, Feb. 7.-(Special. )-The fol- lowing letter has been received from the secretary of the American Short Horn Breeders Association:
 Chicago, H., Feb. 3. Dr. c. A. Cary, Auburn,l Ala:
 Dear Sir-Referring to your letter of January 5, regarding special prizes on Short Horns. I have had the matter up with our Executive Committed, and they have authorized me to say to you that if your State Fair Association will offer $500 in premiums on Short Horns at your 1905 State Fair. this Associa- ton will duplicate that amount If your Association meets this require ment please advise me, and send me a copy of your premium list as soon as it has been issued.
 Yours truly,
 John w. Graves,
 Secretary. There is little doubt that the Amer ican Hereford Breeders Association will do as well in special Hereford prizes at the State Fair, but the ques- ton arises. what will Montgomery bus mess men do for the Fair? From every standpoint Oocation in the State, agri- cultural surroundings. etc. ), Montgom- cry is the place for the State Agricul- tural Fair. The State fair of Georgia is now out of debt and has several thousand dollars in its treasury. Ma con is no better located and has no better natural advantages than Mont gomery. The fair grounds at Macon are located close to Macon--just outside of the city limits; but Macon has no better if as good. a race track and no better location than Riverside Park. and it's most excellent track. Never was there a more opportune time for A State Agricultural Fair in Alabama. The livestock breeders are anxious and will make most excellent exhibit of beef and dairy cattle, hogs. sheep. horses. mules and poultry. The Ala bana Livestock Association will meet at Montgomery March 2s and 29. and every stockman. m Alabama should at tend.
