 Good Trade Made. Some idea of the good trades made by the Alabama board of convict inspectors is found in the closing of a contract with the Henderson-Boyd Lumber com pany at Richburg, Ala, for 150 men at s30 each per month, the state to take care of and guard them, the lumber company simply receiving the labor. They will pro duce gross. at this figure. $4500 per month The cost of maintenance will be $500 a month, which will include clothing and food and medicine and guards, leaving a net gain from the hire Of loo men for each month $3000. The department earned for the state last year $3Oc,000 above all expenses. turning that much cash into the general treasury.
 Foley Buys Land.
 J. E. Foley of Chicago vas in the city yesterday on his way to Baldwin county where he owns 30,O00 acres of land, and upon which he will settle a number of immigrants. Several were with him as they came through and will begin to im- prove the property at once. The land lies on the new line of the Louisville and Nashville railroad, and will be in close touch with traffic in a short time. The story of MT. Foley acquiring the lands is an interesting one. He first came into in- formation about them and came down. Later he sent an agent who did not make a trade satisfactory to him, and out of which grew lawsuit which Is yet pend ing in the courts. However, MT. Foley has been busy acquiring Baldwin county lands, and will undertake to locate a large number of people on them He is the owner and manufacturer of roley's Pine Tar and Honey. a remedy that has had a wide sale.

 Neg Pardoned.
 The governor has pardoned Jake Dees. a negro of Bullock county three months before his time was out. as q concession t. the fact that he was hurt and could not do regular work. He was injured by an explosion of a dynamite cart ridge some weeks ago, by other negroes trying to escape. The governor says on the papers:
 '"fhls man was convicted in Bullock county of selling mortgaged property. Ills short time expires on August 20. 1905. The board of pardons on the grounds that there Is possible doubt of his guilt. and because of the recommenda tions of the solicitor and the justice of the peace before whom the preliminary trial was held, recommend that he be pardoned.

He was burned on the head. face and neck besides receiving injuries on ot her parts of the body. The neck wound was right serious and has resulted in dis figuring him.
