TRIBUTE TO
 MIR. BARRY
Dr. Stakely's Words on Death Of
 Good Man.

In the passing away of the late Richard M. Barry the religious element of Montgomery lost landmark whose work. visible In all parts of the city. will long live after him.
 It was because of his singular putty of life and great interest in spreading the gospel that all the ministers or the city were drawn to him, Although a Methodist he was beloved by those or other denominations. It was matter of regret to Revs. J. o. Andrew and F. c. Nave, co-workers and companions in Christ that they did not receive mo- tiee in time to attend the funeral Rev J. NJ Crawford was out of the city and Mir Barry's faithful pastor, Rev. J. ": Rlenhart was taken i'll Sunday and was unable to be present at the run eral
 Rev J. A. Rice. D. D., of Court Street Church read the Methodist Church fun eral service and Rev. Charles A. stake- iy. of the First Baptist Church, in most feeling manner paid the following tribute to this good and holy man:

On the statement Of the trial judge that he dad been wrongfufiy convict ed, and on evidence showing that he was in poor health. Sam Pledger. white man. of Jefferson county. serv- ing a sentence of year and day for tls rime of seduction, was yesterday pardoned by the Governor
 In his statement accompa nying ths pardon, Governor Jeiks said:
 Tn shis case. the Board of rardons wrote as follows-1 he trial judge anu solicitor beth recommend his pardon; the evidence shows that he is in very bad health and utterly unable to work and probably will not bc able to work during the remainder of this sentence. which was for cne year and day. The trial judge suggests that there Is no doabt but that he was wronkfully convicted. Tn view of these facts the Board of Pardors recommends that he be pardoneds
 Fiedger. who is white man, was convicted of having se6uced Mamie Kelly. of Jefferson county. by the Criminal Court of Birmingham on Feb ruary 20. of this year. Testimony of witnesses on the stand at the trial tend ed to show that the woman was not of good character.
 Tn addition to the Piedger case. pa roles were ordered by the Governor in two cases. ana the civil rights of former Federal prisoner were restored to Dirl.
 Jim Crawford. convicted of burglary by the Wilcox county circuit court. and sentenced to five years. was given parole, dependent upon good conduct Crawford had been indicted jointly with Wheeler Wilson who was also convicted. The latter had previously been recommended by the Board for cleniency, aHi similar action was fol- lowed in the case of Crawford.
 The other parole granted was in tho case of Hedges Gates. of Clarke co,in- ty, convicted by the Circuit Court of that county of burglary ard grand lar ceny. Tho sentence was two years, the date of conviction having been April q. 1905. Regarding the parole, Governor Jelks said:

faces to which the far-off memories of my childhood extend. From my eighth year-f have been knowing him and al- ways to love and to honor him for what he was in himself and for his unselfish ministries to others.
 T sometimes think that that thing in this world in which the angels in heaven take greatest delight is the wide extended but little read volume which we may call the annals of quiet life. Not surely in the bloody record of war, nor In the exciting pa ge of politics, nor yet in the daily bulletin of pastimes and public sports is the centre of their interest to be found. The quiet and orderly life. with its daily round of unheralded sympathies of unostentatious ministries of love and grace. this is the life that resembles earth to heaven, and this Is tba life that our friend lived. His ambieion was In the faithful performance of the daily duties of life and his joys were found in the quiet circle of his family and friends and church. He was a man of generous impulses and his hand was always the hand of a friend. His encouraging words to me in those years when most needed such words will ever be as balm to my soul. And if every person to whom he extended kindness in the course of his long-ex- tended years were here today to cast a bouquet of flowers upon his easxet the space would scarcely hold the tstb- ute of love. Like his Savior, our friend literally went about doing good. And while he was a consistent member of the denomination of Christians to which he belonged. he loved all who loved the same Lord and his passion for souls was universal Any prosper ity that came to any part of the King dom of his Lord was a qualification and a joy to his soul.
 Such life cannot but prove q ben ediction to the world. and, like the act of the devoted disciple who lavished the precious spikenard upon the person of the Lord, cannot but be laid up as a memorial forever. We'll done. thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of thy Lord. It is really joy to me to unite my voice with that of the family and friends in .his last tribute of affection and respect"
 Rev E. C. Moore closed the services with prayer.
 At the cemetery MT. Barry's grand children performed the last act in plac- ing on his tomb the floral tributes that testified the affection of countless friends His was the end of an dn- selfish, beautiful life.

ADJUSTMENTS
At the Caslno Theatrc.


 A most novel bill will be presented at the new Electric Park Casino this week. The marvellous Andree, Euro pean Mahatmas who claim to have ap- peared before royalty forty-seven times will be the principal feature.
 They will give performance that is both interesting and puzzling, Mir. Andre shows great dexterity as a palm ist and prestidigitator. his feature act being 6 disappearance which is clev- erly carried out. His sleight of hand tricks are well conceived and rapid enough to mystify the most expe- rienced spectator.
 Mrs Andre takes part in silent thought transmission, telling the names and characteristics of playing cards which are held behind her back. The most puzzling part of the Andres per formance is, however, that part which Is devoted to what arc called dream visions" Mrs. Andre Is thrown into a trance and while in this mesmerized state she describes various persons in the audience. telling what they have written on pads held in their hands, also telling what certain people are thinking about.
 It is not easy to understand just how this phenomenS is brought about but it is most interesting.
 Other features will be Late and Early in a novel act, Malley and Nee han. a well known minstrel pair. Jessie DeWees, the banjoist and the camera graph.
 Captain Blondell, the worlds cham pion swimmer will give three exhibi- tions during the week on tuesday, Thursday and Saturday nights on the Lake. His performance Is a most in- teresting one. and concludes with dis play of marine fireworks and the com plete destruction of a modern battle- ship. Showing the modern mode of naval warfare.
 Captain Blondell is a character Of in- ternational repute and should attract large crowds.
 Special lighting features have been installed to illuminate the lake for the Captains performance.

 Dr. Robert c. Patrick. President of Judson College, Marion spent a part of yesterday in Montgomery He was on his way home from the Baptist State convention which met last week in Talladega.
 Dr. Patrick was much gratified at the way his report upon Judson for the last week was received. The report. however, showed that Judson had last year easily the most successful year of its long history. It his an undisputed place among the leading women col leges of the country. The attendance last year was in excess of all previous records, notwithstanding the fact that the college authorities were compelled to refuse the application of a number of prospective students, for lack Of room.
 So rapidly has Judson grown that a system of improvement and extension has been adopted The college in the coming year will be enlarged in mans ways Tn order to accommodate the in- creased patronage.
 At the convention last week the ex- tension of the college was heartily en- dorsed. Dr. Patrick was given assur- ance that he would be supported in the college extension.

 The Council of the Order of the Ge- zion of Honor to which. according tc custom the French government sub mitted the proposal to decorate Mme. Sarah Bernhardt with the cross of the order has refused to grant its pernis- sion for the decoration.
 Such refusals have been very rare, indeed. but do not absolutely preclude the conferring of the decoration, for the government can bring influence to bear that may cause the council to yield. as happened In similar case some years ago.

The chief cause of Constipation and Indigestion is weakness of the Muscles ghat contract the Intestines and Bowels.
 Cascarets are practically to the Bowel Muscles what Massage and Cold Bath are to the Athletic Muscles.
 They stimulate the Bowel Muscles to contract. expand. and squeeze the Diges- i've Juices out of food eaten.
 They don't help the Bowels and Liver in such way as to make them lean upon similar assistance for the future.
 This is why. with Cascarets, the dose may be lessened each succeeding time instead of increased, as it must be with all other Cathartics and Laxatives.
