KING BUILT THEATER FOR IsoBEL
.STRONG.-Mrs Isobe1 Strong, author of
stThe Girl from Home" lived for some
years in Honolulu, where the scene of
her novel is laid. She was prominent in
American society there, and in the court
circles Of King Kalakaua. In fact. she
was special protege of the king. It was
in Honolulu and thru his kindness that
she had her first experience with life on
the stage. When she happened to ex-
press wish that she and her friends
might give amateur theatricals and her
regret that there was no suitable place
in which to give them Kalakaua gener-
ously offered to build a theater for her,
and proceeded to do it. Tho not so large
as the average theater, twas exquisitely
equipped, and it had royal box, which
was occupied on gala nights by the king

AN ANSWER IS FILED APPEAL OF PRESIDENT
TRACTION COMPANY REOPENs THE
 PARK CONTROvEcRsY.
File Ad litional AAdavits ts Show that 1t Has Right to Go iR
 the Park.

Answer and affidavits were filed yes- terday morning in the United States Court by the Montgomery Traction Company, to the petition of injunction of the Montgomery Street Railway to prevent the Traction Company from entering Electric Park. k...ssa.-s-.-aaa-..ss--
 The hearing of the arguments rela- tive to the answer has not as yet been set down by Judge Thomas G. Jones presiding over the court
 It will be remembered that the Mont gomery Street Railway first sought to prevent the Traction Company enter ing Electric Park through the State courts, but their efforts were unavail- ing. As a last resort the United States Court was applied to for an. injunction on the ground that the Traction Com pany was seeking to gain the benefits of a park, which the Street Railway had spent large sums in building. Judge Jones ruled that the Traction Company could come within fifty feet of the park. Business over the Traction Com- pany line was killed by the Electric Park people charging fee of admis- sion at the Traction Company gate. The company seeks to go, into the heart of the park. and right of way has been secured from Mrs. Hal T. Walker, the owner of the land.
 The affidavits were made by Hal T. Walker and Francis D. Ayres. the orig tnal promoter of Electric Park. They deal with thel right of the Traction Company to have entry into Electric Park.

 The Minister of War paled. he dropped the receiver. The Minister of War was dismayed, but only TOT a mo- ment: only for moment.
 : Tn a firm bold hand ha indited spe- cial order, order Number 4-11-44, Of the Mosquito War Series of 1905. It was addressed to Ginrul Jake Hinderer, Commander of the Heavy ArtiIiery' Somewhere near McIntyre's Brick Yard Cease operations in Vesuvius ana the 
 forces from North Montgomery until l can send Commander Madigan or some other loyal leader to take charge or the situation in North Montgomery.
 You will. immediately upon receipt of this order, remove the heavy artil- lery to West End and attack the hos tiles now on the war path wherever you find them. Use the utmost precau- tion, but the enemy must be beaten. E was there ! man in Ginrul Hinder CTS forces dismayed when this terrify- ing order was received? The historian wots not. The historian doesn't know exactly what that means, but 1t sounds good. Ginrul Hinderer sounded as- sembly by blowing a shrill whistle, and the roll was called. Nose. the nisser helper, and Maude, the mule, were on hand, and therefore all were present or accounted for. The armament consisted of one rapid fire oil tank, with sixty gallon capacity. The sduirter was In fine condition.
 Maude was hitched to the artillery wagon and urgei on by Nose, the wild ridn to West End was begun It vas an exciting gallop to battle. At times Maude hit the dizzy gait of four miles an hour.
 West End slept peacefully in the af- ternoon,< sum- uncon scious of the scenes of carnage she was about to witness Not a sound vas heard except the sounds of the big schooners as they bumped over Burkhardts Bar. Not noise was heard except the noisome odor that came rom the negro fish stand on the corner.
 But, hark! tho hostiles were alert. They heard the sound of the approach of the heavy artillery as Maude and the wagon rumbied over the Bel! Street bridge. With aa ominous whirring noise they sprang from the ambush in the ditches nea- the railroad where they had been hiding. In a cloud they hurled themselves in the direction from which was approaching the unterrihed forces of Ginrul Hinderer.

BxCELLENCE AND ELEGANT

MT. c. T. Bell, General Passenger and Ticket Agent of the Grand Trunk Rail- way System, is frequently in receipt of communications from patrons. eulo- gizing the service that is found on Canada's great double track railway An unsolicited letter of recent date reads as follows:
 T have just returned from the Pacific coast and 1t may interest you to know that my wife and immensely you must admit that when a woman Is pleased and delighted. she receives something that has the classic touch oi excellence and elegance. l am in clined to think that the railroad that pleases a woman is pretty near per fection.'
 Another letter from a physician of Aiken. South Carolina, reads:
 T had the pleasure of travelling over your line from Portland, Me. to De- troit, Mich., and have no hesitation in saying that your roadbed Is one of the smoothest have ever been on, and the night from Montreal to Toronto, the train was as steady as if one had been in hotel"
 The travel over the Grand Trunk Is increasing every year, and as the ex- cellence of this railroad Is becoming known more and more. travellers from all parts are taking the opportunity of riding on the fast trains which this line is noted for in Canada and over their double track route between the prin- cipal cities of the East and West.

ANOTHER BIG MERGER
SOUTHERN COTTON SEED OIL COM
 PANIES TO COMBINE.
Headquarters of Consolidation i'm Lou
 isviIIe, and Crude Mills VIII Continue to He Operated
 in This Section.

Louisville, Ky, July 2S.-A combi- nation of the cotton seed oil compa- nies of the South Is in process of con- summation. The combination is head ed by the Kentucky Refining Company and includes the Southern Cotton Oil Company and the American oil Com pany. The new company will be known as the Kentucky Refining Com pany. This company filed an amend ment to It's charter increasing its max imum indebtedness from $200,000 to S3,000,0 900 and giving 1t the right to hold securities in other companies. Its corporate existence was also changed to ninety-nine years. This amount was made to permit of the holding of securities of the companies 1t Is pro posed to merge.
 Later the maximum indebtedness will be raised to $10,00O,000 or more. Ac- cording to President Ferguson of the Kentucky company the headquarters of the company will be in Louisville and this city will continue to be the center of the refining plants of the company. Crude oil mills will be conducted as now in the various large cotton centers in the South.
 The combination is practically an economical move. the Southern and American being manufacturers of crude oil, and the Kentucky being a refining company.

 The men were up before daylight at Camp Ligon. Long before that the company cooks were astir. Shortly af- ter { o'clock the men had finished their breakfast and were standing by their tents to break camp. At 4:50 o'clock a. m. the bugIe blared and the tents wsre dropped and the men of the four batteries rolled and folded their canvas houses.
 Before z o'clock the batteries were coming to the city Each of the out of- town batteries, Selma, Mobile and Birmingham left on an early morning train.
 The rife team, headed by Major Westcott, remained over to compete with the team from the cavalry squad ron and to take the lions share of the marksmanship prizes.

The members of the Mont gomery battery came in at later hour. but a detachment of 1t was busy throughout the day bringing in the heavy armament from Electric Park to the City Building.
 Captain Stewart washburn and Cap tain John F.. Powers of the staff who have done so much in assisting Major Westcott towards making the camp a compl,te suscess, were busy yesterday experimenting the removal of the camp paraphernaiia to the city, where 1t will be stored until needed.
 Adjutant General Brandon and other military officers have highly compli- mented Major Westcott on the good or der observed at Camp Ligon.

At the Casino.

In spite of the indictment weather of last night, q fair-sized audience wit messed the second presentation of "A Little Change" by the Walter Edwards Company at the Pickett Springs Casino.
 As on the first night. the clever little comedy pleased immensely and the au- dience seemd glad that 1t had braved the clements and was present. The leading male part. Felix Featherstone. was convincingly portrayed by Mir. Edwards with his customary ease and bearing. The character seemed suited to his personality and he made an ex- cellent impression in his work last night.
 MT. Joseph O'Meara was pleasing as Harry Pendergast and Gale Satterlee was an interesting Uncle John. Miss Andrews. the leading woman. appeared to good advantage in the part of Mrs. Featherstone and strengthened her hold on the patrons of the Casino.
 A matinee performance of "A Little Change" at o'clock this afternoon and the usual night performance to- night will close the successful two weeks engagement of Walter, Edwards In Montgomery.

The eleven sanitary inspectors of the city hntshed yesterday morning the first inspection of the entire city and in the afternoon work of te-inspection over the same ground begAn anew. It is believed that the whole. city can be regularly inspected every two weeks. Chief Clerk J. J. Farley says that the reports of the inspectors show that the city is in an especially clean condition. The people, he says. have officers Ito clean up their premises but own will and accord
 The work of flushing all storm wa ter and sanitary sewers is going on consistently under the direction of ln- spector Carew Powell At all of the hack stsnds in the down town district men are sent every day to wash away all dirt and impurities and this phase of the work is receiving special at- tention.
 One case of smallpox was reported to the department yesterday. Due to the fact that the city's new pest house on the Lower Wetumpka road is not yet ready for occupancy. the patient was isolated In the house where the disease was found and the house was placarded. Nothing Is feared by the health authorities from this case.
 The fact that . case of smallpox was found and made public as soon as dis covered is evidence that the city health department wants to deal fairly with the people and to keep them truly in- formed of the situation.

 Produce Their Mother.

Chicago. July Exchanges that Mrs Sarah D. Mulholland. a wealthy woman fem Vicksburg. Miss, is detained as a prisoner by her two daughters. the Misses Daisy E. and Hattie Mulholland were made in the Superior Court today by Mrs. May Powell. who claims that she is also a daughter Of Mrs. Mui- holland. ,,,
 On the showing made by the bill Judge Dupuy issued a writ or haoeas corpus commanding the Mises Muihoi- land to produce their mother m coor.
 Mrs. Hulholland is tho widow of Charles H. MuIholland. whoi for many vears operated a line of steamboats on the Mississippi River between St. Louis and Memphis, and 1t is said that de- sire to control the disposition 'of the fortune eft by him Is partly at the bottom of the present court proceeo- ines. In her petition Mrs. FoVeii oe- clares that the Misses Daisy ana hat. lie Mulholland have kept constant rd over their mother, have constant iv kent the doors of their apartments locked and have refused 70 allow their mother to leave the premises unless ac companied by one of them. Mrs. Foveii insIsts that her mother has repeatedly exnresed a desire to live with her. but that the other young women nave Ie- fused to let their mother go TOT tne reason that they desire 10 retain con trol of her money and property. It is probable that the hearing will be post. pcped until next week on account of the feeble condition of Mrs. Mulholland' She was unable to appear today when o denutv sheriff visited her apartments in an effort to bring her into court.
 Miss Daisy Mulh olland was emphatic in her declaration that Mrs. Powell Is not a sister of hers, sne IS not my sister" declared Miss Mulholland. and sbe ir m relative of mine. I have heard of her before, but she has no claims to my mothers custody.

New Aerial Apparatus win Succeed
 Wagon of Volunteers.
 The old hook and ladder truck, used for years before the days of the paid fire department and which has been al- most in constant service since its pur- chase many years ago will be replaced in the Madison Avenue station within the next few days by the aerial truck purchased by the city some years ago. The aerial truck has never seen much service It was found after it's pur- chase that 1t was too heavy for two horses to pull over the many hills of Montgomery and as a result. 1t has stood in reserve near the station in the city building.
 The firemen yesterday fixed the tongue and harness so that three horses can be hitched to the new truck and the new apparatus will be placed in commission as soon as a stall can be arranged for the extra horse in the hook and ladder room. The old truck may be given a thorough overhauling and turned over to one of the hill or suburban companies. though 1t has not been definitely decided what will be done with 1t.

EMERY ATTACKS COURT
SAYS FELL CITY COURT HAD NO
 AUTHORITY.
St. Clair County COnvicts Make a Move Which May Release . Score
 of Prisoners.

If the writ of habea corpus of Arthur Embry. negro. which was ap- piled for yesterday before Judge .A. D.. Sayre, presiding over the civil division of the City Court of Montgomery. Is granted the State may become shy, some score or more of prisoners now within the wallis of the penitentiary.
 Embry makes a test case. He sets out in his application for writ of habeas corpus, that for two years he has been in the State penitentiary. He was convicted In the Circuit Court of St. Clair County. sitting at Pell City. The Pell City court was recently de- clared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court on account of error in 1egisla- tive enactment and Embry's counsel makes the point that his client was not convicted by court of justice inas- much as the Supreme Court has declar- ed the act creating a term of court at Pell City. null and void.
 Should Embry win out in his case. every convict sent up from the Pell City Court will have cause sufficient to apply for freedom.
 Judge Sayre has not set the matter down for a hearing. He will today confer with Judge J. M. Carmichael. president of the Convict Board and will then announce the date of the hearing

 MEN IN PRIZE SHOOT.
Ma1eF WestcOtt's Men Lead by . Wide MaFgfn-Lieutenant Lapsley Proved to Best Indlvid-
 ual Shot.

The rifle team from the 1st Artil-
 Very Battalion yesterday scored a sig
 lhal victory over the team from the list Cavalry \squadron at the Holt Ri- file Range.
 The artillery team therefore becomes the owner of the handsome trophy bcup offered by Gen. Louis V. Clark
 The handsome medal offered for the I best individual shot by Gen. Barry Holt was won by Lieutenant B. w.
 Lapsley of the Birmingham Battery. while the medal offered by The Mont gomery Journal for the second best individual shot was won by Private c. H. Ray of the Camden troop. Lieu tenant Lapsleys score was 3z out of la possible SO, while Private Ray )scored 30 bulls eyes.
 N The contest began at 8 o'clock yes- terday morning and was under the personal supervision of Major W. F. tebbetts. inspector of rifle practice on .he stan of General Clark. Both tAams were confident. The cavalry mte len were probably the more confi- ddnt owing to the fact that~they are armed with carbines. while the ar- |tillerymen usually have no small arms other than six shooters, and were new to their Krags. The men from the squadron were |commanded by Capt. Tyler Goodwyn of Troop A, while the men from the ar- tillery were commanded by Capt. Sam Roswald of Battery B. The cavalry men used carbines and the artillery Emen Krag Jorgenson rifles. The scores were:
