Frits HkIudiher, Stranger, Cut by Gus
 Deckard.
 Gus Deckard, il well known stone cutter, was released from the city prison yesterday morning after he had been held for several hours awaiting the results of wounds which he had inflicted upon Fritz Kludiher, a Ger man. in a fight in a saloon at Perry and Monroe Streets.
 The physicians attending him report ed that the wounds of Kludiher were not serious and Deckard was allowed to go on a $200 bond which he readily made. On the police docket, both Deckard and Kludiher are charged with disorderly conduct, fighting
 The light occurred Thursday night in the saloon at the corner of Monroe and North Perry Streets. Both men, the police say. were drunk. The two men were drinking in the saloon when the quarrel started and in 8 few minutes they cursed each other. The fight started according to what the wit nesses say. by Kludiher seizing Deck ard by the arm and wrestling him about the room. The two fell on the floor and in the struggle on the floor Deckard is said to have done the cut ting.
 KIudiher was cut four times, twice in the arm. onco in the back and once in the Dack or the noCh. I He WOunucu man bIed freely in the saloon before physicians arrived.
 Both Deckard and Kludiher were ar rested by Patrolmen Huffman, Mahler and Russell. Kludiher was. however, quickly sent to a local intirmary Pend ing a definite statement as to the ex- tent of the Germans wounds Deckard was held in the city prison without bail. It was reported from the infirm- ary last night that Kludiher was not seriously injured and that he was rest ing comfortably.
 Deckard Is foreman for the Curbow- CIapp Marble Company He is consid- cred an excellent workman and has many friends in the city. Ho declares that the events that led up to the fight and the hght itself are blanks in his mind. He says he was drinking and does not remember engaging in any Aaht. His face was badly bruised ap- narently by a number of fist blows.

pr. Patrick of JudsOn Institute in Montgomery to See Dr. Sanders --Mnny Refugees from
 Pensacola.

The college presidents of Alabama have for the past few days shown some soiicitude about matriculation of stu dents who want to come into the State from territory under quarantine of the State Board of Health. and Dr. Robert G. Patrick, President or Judson Institute, of Marion, came 10 Montgomery yesterday to investigate the regulations. He visited the office of the Health Board in the Capitol but on account of the temporary absence Of Dr. w. H. Sanders. State Health Off, cer, he could not get any assurances such as he was seeking.
 The Judson Institute has always en- 5oyed a fairly liberal patronage from many points in Mississippi and a few fin Louisiana. The Alabama quarantine does not apply to the whole State Of Mississippi but only the infected points. These are Natchez, Vicksburg, Missis- Efppi City and Gulfport. Unless the Alabama Board, therefore, decides to take radical steps in preventing the visitation of yellow fever there will not be very much uneasiness on the part of Dr. Patrick.
 Dr. Patrick is trying to decide whether he should open college week earlier or a week later than has been advertised. A conference with Dr. Sanders, who will likely return 10 Montgomery today from Mobile, may influence his decision in this matter. Dr. Patrick says that quite number of students who intend to matriculate at the Judson Institute have left points am other States under quarantine and gone to unaffected places to stay out the necessary seven days before trying to come into Alabama At the end of the seven days which are made requi- site by the Alabama regulation these students will go at once to Marion and Anter college. Most of them are now at Monteagle, Tenn.
 If the opening of the college is post poned to allow uninformed students an Opportunity for complying with the Alabama regulation. 1t might be too Rate. Hence Dr. Patrick's Quandary.
 It is understood that 1t is pr. Pat rick's purpose to get some concessions from Dr. Sanders because of possible inconveniences If any concessions are made they will be the first during this years quarantine and would. of course, be made applicable to the nonresident students of all Alabama schools and colleges. In other words, there would be no discriminations. The University of Alabama and the Alabama Polytech- mic Institute have a considerable pat ronage from Mississippi but no uneasi- ness has been manifested by the presi- dents of these colleges, Drs. J. W. Ab- ercrombie and c. c. Thach respective ly

 George A. Beauchamp,

 In his recond circular letter issued yesterday Grand Master Matthews quotes the following resolution offered by Walker S. Scott, at the last Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge, which was adopted:
 Whereas, the sentiment In favor of the establishment and maintenance Of a widows and orphans home by the Grand Lodge of Alabama has shown an increase each time the same has been submitted to the various subordinate lodges in the Jurisdiction, and
 Whereas. the establishment Of the same Is a crying need and until such feasible plans are inaugurated looking to this, will we have done our duty as Master Masons, and
 Whereas. the object is a laudable and pratseworthy one and has the en- dorsement of the rank and file of truly good Masons. who have no hesftancy in advocating such plans as are feas- ible, and are willing to condone the on position that has been manifested and around such as are skepticai, throw the DhOao AiAutlc OI n0dSOUlc charity while we as Masons of this Grand Jurfsdic- ton are neglecting through the proper channels of organized effort to extend this--one of our fundamental prineluies to the widows and orphans of our brethren. and
 Whereas, the establishment Of this much desired institution can only De axs- complished through a campaign of edu- cation, and the concerted efforts Of those who will volunteer to vote and work for the home; be it
 Resolved, That the M. w Grand Master call upon the various Masonic Districts for volunteers who are will ing and will organize in their respec- tive counties a crusade of education and will keep this issue before the re- spective lodges in their counties and report to the M. w Grand Lodge at the next annual communication.''
 The circular letter directs that this resolution be read in open Lodge at the next regular communication and expresses the hope that brethren will assist in this cOmmendabIe work

 A reward of $50, to be paid out of the fund of the State running from Oc- tober 1, was yesterday offered by Gov ernor Jelks for the arrest and deliv- cry to the Sheriff of Barbour County of Henry James, the alleged negro mur- derer of another negro. Mason Lomax
 James Is said to have killed Lomax in the early part of last year. He has been at large ever since. The reward offered was recommended by several of the most influential citizens of Flu faula.
 The reason the reward. if expended, will have to come out of next years fund is that the outstanding rewards at present exhaust this years appro- priation for that purpose.
