The annual celebration of B'nal Brith Day in Montgomery, which took place in the vestry room of Temple Beth Or last night was well attended. considering the inclemency of the weather.
 The program arranRed for the occa- sion by a joint committee from the Emanuel Lodge No. 1oS, and the Ala bama Lodge, 299. was both interest ing and instructive. including an ad- dress by M.

Dllman, one or the most prominent men of his city and one of the best known and enthu- siastic members of the order in the South, were singularly pleasing.
 The address of Mir. Mohr was in the nature of a memorial to the late Leo IN. Levi, once Grand President of the B'nai Brith of the world. It was a splendid tribute the character the lead CT which he held up as an example for the members of the order of this day. His life and work were depicted by the speaker as being a worthy exam pie and inspiration and incentive to continued effort.
 There are ten districts of the B'Nat B'Rith In the world. seven of which are in America, and Mir.

He spoke of tho many trials which they, as a people, had been called upon to endure: of the tribuiations through which they have passed: of the persecutioAs and the perils and vicissitudes of the race
 That the Jewish people had outltved their prosecutors and overcome their antagonists he said, was one of the miracles of the age.

HAVE BIG BEAR HUNT
ALABAMA sPORTsMEN TO INVADE MISSISSIPPI SWA8TPS.
NimrOds Will Go To Hunting Grounds Made Famous by Tedy Roosevelt
 and EndeavoR to SIay the

Advertiser Bureau,


 Mobile, Dec 16.
 plan is being formulated for a bis bear hunt, to be participated in by sportsmen from a number of different sections of the State, to be held the latter part of the present month, in the vicinity of Stringers Lake.
 There are said @ be a large number of bears in that section, and the men who are hungry for, bear steak expect to have a general slaughter of the in- nocents in that region during the week of their stay, almost as though Teddy himself were to go after the wild anil mals of the woods.
 The plan centers about a group of amateur spoFtsmen residing in the vi- cinity of Stockton, Baldwin county, who have set their minds on going back into the deep woods, and shooting bears or getting "hugged" in the at tempt. Some of their friends ,ip Mo bile have been invited to join the par ty, and certain sportsmen from Mont gomery will also likely so to make up the personnel of the party. It is~pos- sible, also, that men from Birmlng- ham, Selma and Brewton may go along
 It is the plan to go out in the woods and camp for week, getting all the bear 1t is possible to get during that time, and. of course, not disdaining the smaller game, such as deer. The arrangements are not all made as yet and the date of the trip Is not set. but it seems likely at this time, if the plans of the party do not miscarry, that the week between Christmas and New Years, when none of the sports men are very busy at their more pro- saic tasks, will be selected for the trip.

 Brewton, Dec. l6.-(Speeial) 1.-The fact that Rev. J. M. Shofner has been transferred from Brewton to Enter prise by the Alabama Conference for the next year, will not Fetard the prog ress of the Girls Industrial School, To- cated in East Brewtop and fostered by Mir. Shofner.
 After MT. Shofner came home from Conference he called meeting of the Board of Trustees of the institution and outlined plans for the continued work of the school The Board consists Of Rev. ]. M ShofneP, D. Giilis, James M, Davidson, w w. Hinots and J. B. Fin lay. Besides the full number of the trustees there were also present Rev. M W. Gordon, Rev A. M. Douglas and John E. Tippin, and it was the opinion of all that no let-up should occur in the vigorous plans already outlined.
 It is the purpose of Mfr. ShofneF to keep in close touch with the progress of the school and to have an assistant manager, resident here, who will look after the details the same as he has heretofore, and everything will be thoroughly organized for the balance of the present session, and larger plans made for the next school year,
 There are at present in the dormitory eleven girls and three teachers These girls, with, possibly one or two exeep- tions. are receiving their board and all tuition without cost to them Larg- CT plans are contemplated for next fall. Rev. W. A. McCann, the newly-appolnt- ed Methodist pastor here, has promised cooperation, and the other pastors of Brewton churches are unanimous in their desire to do all they can to help the trustees in the successful working of the school.

 The augmentation of the deputies caused a great deal of comment. Whereas they formerly received 5000 for their services to the State they now get 15.0o0 francs. It was impossi- ble for deputy without a ..rivate in- come to live in Paris on the sum for merly allowed them. A young unmar- ried deputy would have to live in re spectable quarter and have rooms it to receive visitors in, and for this alone he would haxe to pay at least 12,- 900 francs yearly, which with taxes would amount to is,000 francs. Then there are a great many letters to be written and this would cost another 1000 francs year; carriages have to be taken at least once or twice a day another 1000 francs. Dinner and sup per at restaurant costs six ,rahcs day at least making an annual amount of 2.520; insurnce, 360: subscriptions etc, to charities. 1000 francs md an- other 1000 to private charities. Add 1000 francs for theatre and concert tickets ana vou get as totN 9,200 francs, thus 200 francs more than the deputy earned.
