streets and other streets for their pro- posed extension A. w. Woodliff, chief of the volunteer fire department appeared before the council and asked that the city pay all the firemen who attended fires and were in actual service in fight ing the flames St for each fire they at tended, which was done. Several addf- tional lights were ordered placed at promi- nent corners and streets by the electric light people.
 The old Kyle opera house, the play house of the city, is being turned Into an up-to-date office building.

 Capt. J. M. Elliott Jr., has been in- formed of the fact that he has won suit for $14500 in New York. When Captain Elliott sold the Southern Car and Foun- dry company for $300,000, he was paid $150,- 900 cash and notes for the remainder, and when payment fell due the notes were not met, and Captain Elliott commenced suit to enforce payment. When the trial came up last week there was no defense, and the presiding judge charged the jury to find for Captain Elliott which was done and the jury returned a verdict in his favor for $145,000, and the money has been paid over and the suit is now thing of the past,

FIRE AT HoNoRAvILLE.
School Building and Masonic Lodge
 Rooms Are Totally Destroyed.

Greenville. January 10.-(Special)-A large two-story building, used for the school and Masonic hall, was burned last night at Honoraville, twelve miles east of here. All the regalia and property of the Masons was destroyed, and the desks used by the school. It Is believed an incendiary did the deed and stren- uous effort will be made to find the guilty party. A messenger came here to secure blood hounds, but none are kept by the county. The citizens of Hono- raville are grieved over the loss of this important public building.
 Rev. W. M. Blackwelder of Livingston. has accepted the call rendered him by the Baptist church at this place, and will reach here the middle of February. The denomination Is much pleased to have i another pastor so soon after the resigna- tion of the Rev. W. A. Taliaferro.
 Twelve or fifteen delegates to the Cot ton Growers association meeting at New Orleans, will leave tonight to be present at that important meeting.

Dallas People Go to eadsden

Gadsden. January 10.-(Special.) )-There was very interesting service at the Second Baptist church on TweiIoh street last Sunday night just after regular ser vices. After the sermon hv the Rev. J. W. Dunnaway he opened the doors of the church and there were between twenty and twenty-five additions to the church by letter, and the most interest twenty of the letters were handed in by parties who have recently moved to Gadsden from Dallas county which shows plainly that the population of our town is not only growing, but that we are getting the church-going people here, which is the best part of the fact that we are growing.

POLITICAL AFTERMATH
 DISCUSSED AT CAPITAL
BY HERvEY W. LAIRD.

There will be no run of, the committee making the plurality rule.
 While there are strong restrictions placed about the voter of this year the rule adopted is not severe. It applies to keep out only the man who voted against the nominees at the last elections and not those who failed to vote. It was explained by MT Nhitson, chairman Of the committee on plan, that this would not interfere with the men who could not or did not vote while 1t would keep out all those who went contrary to the wishes of the party.
 The action of the committee has brought out the candidates. however. D. J. Meador made 1t known last night that he would run for lieutenant governor and H. 4. skeggs of Decatur that he desired to be named for associate railroad com missioner. This morning Walter s. White of Sheffield states that he has definitely decided to make the race for associate railroad commissioner.
 This makes the list for railroad com missioner six. including John Rogers of Sumter, J. H. Harris, former superin- tendent of education: Charles Henderson of Pike. H. L. MeEldery of Talladega. H. A. Skeggs of Morgan and w. s. White of Colbert Skeggs Henderson and Me- Eldery are business men developed poht- ieally by the agitation for railroad rates Rogers has been several times in the legislature and Is now state senator. Harris has served as head of the school forces of the state, and White as state auditor.
 The three cornered fight for lieutenant governor promises really the most in terest of the campaign, as 1t has three men of ability and fighting proclvities lined up. Strange, too, 1t Is the only office to which there Is no salary attached. Henry B. Gray of Jefferson was the first man to announce He is wealthy and ex- perienced in politics and has a wide ac- quaintanee in all sections of the state. Next came Emmett O'Neal. who has served as United State attorney for the northern district of the state under a democratic President, and who has given a great deal Of his time to politics in the interests of the state D. J. Meador, the last man in the race, is the farmer boy Of the bunch. Coming to Alabama at the age of % he has been tiller of the soil since He served in the house and senate of the state and presided over the senate after Jelks became governor at the death of Governor Sanford Gray and ONeal, geographically speaking, will expect to get the most of their following from the north and central part of the state; Meador from the agricultural DOT tions.

Montgomery. January 10.-(Special)- While there Is all sorts of comment on the action of the state democratic com mittee in laying out the plan of the cam paign in the state this year, 1t Is a fact that everybody seems pleased with the provision for a convention to name mem bers of the supreme court bench and to keep the party organization intact. It was found at the last primary that to go out after the election the way justices had to do was not in line with the dignity that should surround a member of the high est tribunal of equity and justice in the state
 There will be two members of the su- preme court to elect this fall, the terms of Justices Dowdell of Lafayette and Ty- son of Montgomery ending. After the gen. eral election last time it became neees- sary according to law, for the six jus tices to draw for the terms. Two were to go in two years, two in four and two in six. The gentlemen named drew two years and will have to run again.
 There is more of a sentiment among politicians for a convention system now than aI any IlIue SlilCc lnc piiiiiai9 Hdo adopted, but it is everywhere evident that with the people as whole the primary is a fixture. The committee recognized that by making 1t possible to select men for even the vacancies in the Senate that may occur. This provision, however, Is the least popular of the rulings of the com mittee in session here Tuesday. There is a cry that it is bringing up the hearse and wholly unnecessary In the light of conditions Or possible situations.
 The action of the committee in allow ing districts and counties to look after their own political affairs. save. of course, in the general qualification, is taken to mean that the committee Is more and more in favor of community rule. There was a sentiment looking to the establish ment by the state body of rules govern ing the selection of congressman, some appearing to fear that district commit tees would not be fair to certain candi- dates. but this had no following Of strength It is possible for the state pri- maries to be on August 2, the day set the counties and senatorial districts on another day and the congressional dis- tricts on another. However, all may be on the same day.
 It is go and win in the state office race.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is h
 Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the safest and most efficient dsinfect- ant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human , system for the same cleansing purpose. Charcoal Is a remedy that the more you take of 1t the better; 1t is not a drug at all but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present In the stomach
 and intestines and carries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions
 and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and improves the complexion, it whtens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best char coal and the most for the money, is in Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the fineN powdered Willow ,, charcoal, and other fsrmless antiseptics in tablet form of rather in the form of large. pleasant tastllg lozenges, the
 charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will
 soon tell in a much improved condition
 of the general health. better complexion,
 sweeter breath and purer blood, and the
 beauty of 1t is, that no possible harm can
 result from their continued use, but on
 the contrary great benefit. A Buffalo physician in speaking Of the benefits of charcoal says: T advise Stu arts Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels
 and to clear the complexion. and purify
 the breath, mouth and throat; l also be-
 lieve the liver is greatly benefited by
 the daily use of them; they cost but
 twenty-five cents a box at drug stores and although in some sense a patent preparation. yet I believe I get more and
 better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal Log
 enges than in any of the ordinary char
 coal tablets"
