RIVER. ON A STAND.
Rains, of Last Night May Send i'd
 Higher.

Higher.
 The rivers of this section are nearly at the 'bankfull' stage, and the rains of yesterday and last night, may push them little higher than was anticI- pated several days ago.
 Yesterday morning the river was falling at Rome. nearly stationary at Gadsden, and about at a stand at We- tumpka.
 Several days ago the Weather Bureau office here estimated that the river would reach 34 feet at Wetumpka by yesterday morning. 32 feet at Mont gomery, and about 33 feet at Selma by this morning. When these estimates were made the river was at moderately low stages. They hit quite closely as shown by report from Wetumpka yes- terday morning that. the stage then was 33.6 feet. At p. m. yesterday it was still the same stage at that place. At Montgomery, the stage was s1. feat at 4:so p. m., yesterday and was still rising very slowly. At Selma, the river yesterday morning was 29.5 feet and stiH rising
 The rainfall here, up to g o'clock last night was nearly one inch since about noon. It is thought that similar rains occurred yesterday over most of this watershed; if so, an additional slight rise will be started In the Tallapoosa and Coosa, and the present 'bankful" stages in the Alabama will be so aug mented as to push the rise up three or four feet higher.
 Section Director Chaffee of the ! Weather Bureau has called for special reports this morning from all river stations from Rome to Selma, and will issue additional warning as to tho rivers, should conditions warrant.
 The Tombigbee is stin rising steadily and stage of 52 feet Is expected at Demopolis.

nS rS VALENTINE

M M She was regnant of the lilies.
 My princess. And the roses waited on her As her rightful maids of honor, She dispensing praise or pardon In her kingdom of the garden. While the daisies in the grass Thronged to feel her footsteps pass, And the yellow daffodillies
 Kissed her dress Every flower, as it came In it's order. did proclaim
 Her princess. She had other courtiers there
 Even then Though the clumsy creatures were
 Merely men. But we humbly owned her sway
 While she held her laughing court. And we loved her as men may
 Not, alas. as subjects ought! An princess, we were but human
 Did you guess? And you were most purely woman,
 Though princess. It was sweet to serve and walt Sweet to keep her mimic state
 With flower and bgrd- All so sweet that now today, With the sweetness far away, I can see 1t all again Till mist of tears or pain Dims my eyes. I can stfIf recall the glory Of the never finished story And the secret garden charm And the beauty and the calm Of the skies.
  Though no shadow ever crossed her That she guessed the secret smart Though I think 1t hardly cost her ] Half pang that we should part l I would rather in my dreaming See her with her hair a-gleaming | And her eyes with laughter beaming Than a single tear should start. | She is still by love deserted | Perfect Day personified ] And. though never was she mine, .. | She Is aye my Valentine.

AIOdIsh EOlienne.

The material above all others for dressy costumes Is eolienne. which has reached a perfection of silkiness and luster combined with lightness of weight never before obtained The price is from $1.25 to $2.25 a yard. It comes double width.
 Strange the odd points of view of some people, particularly of the artistic and literary fraternity. They never seem to look at life in the normal or dinary way, which reminds one a bit of that story about Walter Savage Lam dor.
 His cook had done something to of- fend him, and in one of his customary bursts of rage he hurled the unfortu- nate man straight out of the window into the garden below
 Suddenly clapping his hands to his head, he exclaimed in voice full of horror, Heavens, the violets!'
 And in fact they were right under the window.

Washington, Jan. 4. The supreme
court decided again that the state OF
Iowa could not pass a law which would
interfere with the privileges of inter
state commerce, as guaranteed by the
federal constitutions
The cases in which this decision was
announced were those Of the Ameri-
can Express Co. and the Adams Ex-
press Co. against the state Of Iowa,
iii which the state officers sought to
prevent the delivery of liquor sent
from Illinois to Tama, Ia, to be sold
i'll violation Of the state law.
The state supreme court upheld the
seizure but this decision was today re-
yersed by the United States supreme
coitrt IA
