Spring arrayed in all her deli
cate odorous beauty has arrived
and shed her intoxicating pres
ence around us, in the song OF the
birds, the soft green carpet I'M
der foot, the sweet perfume Of the
opening buds and the delicate,
exquisite tints of the first flow
ers.
For the past week or two we
have been given the first taste
of spring weather and March left
us like the proverbial lamb as did
this month of showers and flowers
enter, Sunday being veritable
Fourth of July. But April, the
firt, was only teasing, for with
the approach of the millinery OPP
enings, she hid her smiles and
bushes and wept great showers
of icy tears on Friday. But it
is hoped that her grief has spent
itself and the remaining days OF
the openings will be inspirations
to salesladies and purchasers.
Possibly nature hid her face
from sheer jealousy, as it would
be difficult to sfnd more dam
ty confusion of gorgeous shades

with sides turned up, overlapping

Roots and Shoes.

Boots ere supposed to have been the
invention Of the Carians. They were
mentioned by Homer, 9O7 B. c.
Grecian women possessed twenty
kinds of footgcar, which may be
classed rs those which cover all the
foot I'D to tie ankle and those which
simply tied on the top Of the foot with
wide ribbons or straps. The practice
Of shoe AMI sandal wearing can br
traced back for some thousands Of
years and is probably Of eastern origin.
Frequent mention is made of the shoe
in the Bible from the book OF EXODUS
to - ITS. and there is mention made
of q snor !"tchet az early as the time
Of Abraham.

THREE FIRE ALARMS.
Department Answered Three Calls oi Miner ImnOrfnnce.

V
 Miner Importance.
 Three alarms were yesterday an swered by the Montgomery Fire De- partment. Two of the fires resulted in no damage, while the loss in the third fire was estimated at $50.
 Dense volumes of smoke at 9:35 o'clock yesterday morning were issu- ing from the chimney of q one-story frame cottage at 3S Watt Street, owned by Zirkle ( Moore, and occupied by Willie Edwards. a negro. The Oc- cupants did not wait to ascertain the cause, but became frightened and i'm laddies arrived quickly and found that the smoke was caused by a defective chimney. They stopped the smoke without any damage.
 At 1:20 o'clock yesterday afternoon, sparks from chimney set fire to the roof of n two-story frame residence at i3 GoldthWaite Street. By the effective use of babcocks. the blaze was put out after the roof had been damaged to the extent of about $50. The interior of the residence was not damaged.
 The residence had just been sold by Mrs J. A. Jones to n Mrs. Letcher, and Mrs Jones was moving out of the house when the fire occurred. There was ample insurance.
 At ' o'clock last night the fire de- pertinent was called to a residence at 222 Moulton Street. The burning out of chimney caused the alarm to be sent in. There was no damage.

SUNDAY SALOON ACT
NEW CITY ORDNANCE GOES INTO
 EFFECT TOMORROW.
Police Chief Gerald Issues Order to PatrOlmen to Enforce the Law
 to the Last Let.

Today is the last day on which re- tail liquor dealers of Montgomery will be allowed to conduct saloons under | the old city ordinance. At 12 o'clock tonight the Teague ordinance, recently adopted by the City Council goes into effect, and all other ordinances, previ- ously adopted by the Council become void.
 Under the new measure. all rcstau- rants must not be connected with sa- looms and every saloon is required to have it's bar so arranged that on Sun day clear view of the bar may be seen from the sidewalk. No one except the proprietor of saloon or one of his clerks fs allowed to enter the saloon on Sunday. The fine for thc violation of this ordinance is heavy. Bars con nected with clubs are excluded.
 few weeks ago Police Chief Gerald sent circulars to every retail liquor dealer in Montgomery. advising them of the passage of the Teague ordi- nance and directing how their bars should be arranged by January l. 1906, in order to comply with the law. Late last night. only few of the saloons in the city had begun to make prepara tions to remodel their establishments for compliance with the ordinance. but it is believed that all of them will have their places iii proper shape by the time the law becomes effective
 "@: ... Order of Police Chief.
 Police Chief Gerald is bent upon a strict enforcement of the Teague ordi- nance and he indicates his stand in the following order he issued yester- day to the police force:
 Montgomery. Ala, Dec. 30th. 1905.
 ''The attention of the officers and patrolmen is hereby particularly called to the ordinance recently passed by the City Council entitled An Ordinance to prohibit the lie, giving away, or oth- erwise disposing of spirituous. vinous or malt liquors between the hours of F o'clock on Saturday night and 12 o'clock the following Sunday night.
 "A copy of this ordinance has been furnished each saloon keeper. and each of them has full knowledge 2 the in tent and meaning of 1t. and copy has also been given each police officer. This law goes into full force and effect on January lst, 1906.
 Tt is the duty of all officers of this department to carefully study this or dinance, and they are also ordered to see that the requirements are complied with. and that the ordinance Is strictly and literally enforced to It's fullest in tent and meaning, and failure to do o. and an existence of violation of the ordinance on the beat of any officer shall be considered as neglect of duty, and cause for suspension.
 "A Gerald.
 "Chief of Police"
 The order was read to the day and the night patrolmen at roll call last night. It will be posted at the police station for the benefit of every member of the police department.

1J. H. NATHAN 1 IS A JUDGE Sheffield Lawyer Appoint
 cd to Bench. SUCCEEDS E. B. ALM0N A. F. McCleskey Named as
 Sheriff of Colbert. Governor JeIks Calls Two of the Prom Inent Democrats of North Ala hanna to Onices of Great 1m-
 portance.

l The vacancies by resignation in the | offices of Judge of the Eleventh Ju- dicial Circuit and the Sherif of Col | bert county were yesterday filled 5y Governor Jelks, who gave the judge | ship to Joseph H. Nathan, of Shef- field. and appointed A. F. McCleskey, | of Tuseumbia, as sheriff of Colbert. The endorsement of MT. Nathan was | what might be called tremendous His l friends called personally on the Gov ernor, but most Of them wrote in flat tering terms of his fitness to succeed 1 former Judge E. B. Almon There were commendations of MT. Nathan i from all quarters of the circuit The bar seemed almost united in his fa- vor and there was a general chorus of democracy calling for his appointment . The only rumored candidate for the office besides the appointee was Paul Hodge. of Florence, but there was really no confirmation of this rum"r in capital circles.
 MT. Nathan needs now to qualify for the ofice and get his commission be- fore proceeding with the work where former Judge Almon leaves off. Judge Almon gave up the bench to resume
 the field of practice.
 The appointment of Mir. McCleskey
 will no doubt. carry surprise to many
 people of Colbert county. The reason
 
 vided between the five announced can-
 didates for the office of sheriff. These
 were. besides the appointee, B. H. Car
 ter. H. A. Rand. Aaron Brester and
 B. T. Rylant. It was thought fer
 while that Mir Carter led in the race Still Mir McCleskey had very substan-
 tial support in his application. By men of known soundness he was de-
 scribed to the Governor as brave.
 prudent. capable, sober, courageous, and active"
 Besides the character qualities of
 Mir. McCleskey. he was highly com
 mended for efficiency in office wcrk He gained his experience while in the office of his father. at one time Clerk of the Circuit Court in Colbert County. In the recommendations of Mir McCles-
 keys application were included among numerous others the County Treas urer the County Solicitor, the Clerk of the Circuit Court. and Register in Chancery.
 Mr McCleskey's application, with big volume of papers. was later than | those of most of the applicants, and consequently he was not mentioned as prominently as others for the office To- l cally.
 Mir. Nathan, the new Judge of the
 Eleventh Circuit. is perhaps the best | known Democrat of North Alabama. | He has served for years with distinc- | ton as a member of the State Commit | tee, and has often been a conspicuous | figure in Democratic conventions. As a lawyer Mir. Nathan ranks high.
 He is one of the leading members of
 the Alabama State Bar Association, and
 he has a wide acquaintance in Alabama.

BABER BROKE RECORD
EIGHT PRISONERS BOUND OVER
 FOR FELONIES.
All Were Negroes and Were ArrniEned On Charges of Grand Larceny Four Were Boy Sneak
 Thieves.

Nine negro prisoners were yesterday afternoon taken by Patrolman Lon Taylor from their cells in the city prison to the ante-room of the record CTS court to be tried on felontous charges. Eight negroes were tried on charges of grand larceny. eight were bound over to the grand jury. and the same eight were committed to the jail last night.
 One prisoner charged with assault to murder. had his case continued. AS far as is known that was a record breaker in the annals of the recorder court for one afternoon.
 Sam Stafford and Will Curtis, negro draymen employed by local trans fer line. were bound over by rhe recor- der in the sum of $500 each. The proof was absolutely certain that enc or the other of the negroes or probably both. stole "a diamond brooch from the home of E. B. Young at 220 Adams street, The brooch is valued a $25e and was taken whe:l the draymen came to the residence to haul a trunk to the Union Station.
 At the trial. Stafford and Curtis turn ed evidence on one anothSr Stafford testified that Curtis stole the breast pin while Curtis was equally as posi- tive in testifying that Stafford took the brooch from the residence. The trial was held in the office of Police Chief Gerald owing 70 the necessity of having to place ladies on the stand. The brooch has never been recovered but it Is believed that either Stafford or Curtis known where the jewel Is. and the chances are that they will ul- timately give the name of the person to whom the brooch was entrusted.
 Ben Washington. the same negro who bought a great many of the pistols ro- cently stolen from the Montgomery Loan Company and who was formerly on trial in the recorders court in this connection on q charge of receiving and concealing stolen property, faced another charge of robbery before the recorder yesterday afternoon. It was alleged that Washington inVeigled n white man. W. J. Rigshy. who lives near Sistrunk's. to SC with him to {, room over Il saloon on North Cour: Street and while there. Rigshy alleges. Washington robbed him of s25 in cash money Washington was arrested by Patrolmen Fucker and Watson. He was bound over in the sum of $500.
 Four negro boys, ranging from i0 to IA years of age. were bound over n the slWl of $50 each. These young negroes, whose names are Tom Aber- crombie, Robert King alias Took, Son Davis and Dave AherCrombie, are we'll known in police circles and yesterday was not the first time they had faced
