Cole man, judge of the Tenth circuit is here presiding, and John Mcqueen, solicitor of the circuit, is Joking after the interests of the state. Unfortunately the criminal docket had 10 go pretty much by the board. This was occasioned by the fact that the last grand Jury was drawn by a board of county commissioners whose term of office had legally expired before the date of the drawing of the said jury, and was another of the inconvenience bequeathed to the peo7>-S of thy state by the late constitutional convention. On this account all indictments found by the last grand jury were, on motion of the solicitor quashed, and the grand Jury is now Investigating the matters upon which the quashed bills were founded, to- gether with such new matters as have arisen since the adjournment of the last grand jury. There Is really no one re- sponsible for this blunder, as neither the old commissioners nor the new ones knew when they drew the jury, where they

The campus, buildings and town present an animated and bustlng scene with the large number of students.
 A delightful entertainment was rendered last night by the Young Mems Christian association in conjunction with the ladies' auxiliary to the student body, especially to the new students. An immense throng was present. The handsome associa ton building and grounds were illuminated with lanterns. seats were placed about the grounds and the entire event was a most delightful garden party.

SMALL DAMAGES
 FOR LAND OWNERS
Decision Is Made In Injunction Suits Against Telephone Company In
 CulIman County.

Cullman, September 9.-(Special)-In the injunction suits in the chancery court filed by land owners against the Long Distance Telephone and Telegraph com pany, the matter of ascertaining the prob- able amount of damages the several com plainants would sustain by the construc- ton and operation of the telephone across their lands was referred to the register in chancery, and after holding the re- ference and hearing all the evidence, which consumed the entire week, the reg ister yesterday filed his report assessing the damages in the ten cases at from one cent to fifteen dollars, the average amount in the ten cases being three dol- lars each, and the total damages only forty dollars.
 These reports will probably be confirm ed by the court and the cases being frivolous the court will in all probability dismiss them and tax the costs against the several land owners.

This is the largest total increase in this class of property yet shown by any county in the state.

PERSONAL INTERPRETATIONS BETTER THAN ADVERTISING.

How often we hear and read the ex- pression, "A friend advised me to try Peruna. I tried it and found 1t to be ex- actly what I was looking for"
 At least ten times as many people have taken Peruna because friend advised them to do so as have taken 1t because they saw it advertised.
 Advertisements, however attractive they may be made, cause only a small per cent of the sales of Peruna.
 It is the advice which friend gives to friend which sells Peruna
