 Wanton Disarray.

Centreville, October 29-(Special.) )-There was a quite a heavy frost here this morning which put the finishing touches to vegetation in this section.
 The dog killer appeared in this town Saturday night and played havoc with the canine tribe. He played no favorites, and when Sabbath morning dawned bright and beautiful dogs of all kinds and description were lying dead on the streets. The well-trained shepherd dog of the Presbyterian pastor at this place, and the famous possum hound of the elder of the Colored Baptist church alike fell victims to the wrath of the dog killer. There was much commotion in this usu- ally quiet town yesterday among those who own dogs, and all sorts of threats of law suits and summary vengeance were indulged in by those whose dogs were killed. Some fine bird dogs perished. Women kept and men swore as the news of the death of their favorite pets reached them.

The chemical engine was put into use and the fire was eXtinguished with little damage. Had the department been a little later in arriving on the scene or little less efficient in coping with the blaze, the entire block would likely have been gutted. Chief Blakey is rather proud of the record made by his men and has every reason to be.

One of the re- ports was that the woman was dead in her house, which IS near the star Ice company's plant An investigation dis closed the fact that Katie Jackson and her husband, Scott Gaston, had a quar- rel last night over the attempt of the latter to take some of the belongings Of the woman, The man becoming incensed, made a lunge at the throat of the woman with a sharp knife, but she lodged in time to receive only a scratch near the ear and a very bad fright.

A Reasonable Plea
 For the Stomach
If Your Stomach Is Lacking In Digest i've Power, Why Not Help the Stom- ach Do Its Work-Especially When 1t Costs Nothing
 To Try?

Not with drugs, but with reinforce ment of digestive agents, such as are naturally at work in the stomach? Scien- tihc analysis shows that digestion re- auires pepsin, nitrogenous ferments, and the secretion of hydrochloric acid. When your food fails to digest, 1t is proof posi- tive that some of these agents are lacking in your digestive apparatus.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain noth- ing but these natural elements necessary to digestion and when placed at work in the weak stomach and small intestines supply what these organs need. They stimulate the gastric glands and gradually bring the digestive organs back to their normal condition.
 stuarts Digestive Tablets have been subiected to critical chemical tests at home and abroad and are found to con- tain nothing but natural digestives.

ORPHANS GOING TO FAIR

Selma, October 29.-(Special)-Rev. A. L. Andrews, D. D., pastor of the Church Street Methodist church of this city has under prayerful consideration the tender by Bishop Key to be transferred to Kan sas City, Mo Former tenders of trans fer to conferences without this state have been declined by pr. Andrews. and the two Alabama conferences have been the richer thereby, for he is acknowledged to be one of the most valuable men of the Methodist faith in the state. He is big of brain zealous in the Masters cause, vigorous in his efforts to combat sin and uplift humanity.
 For several months past Dr. Andrews has not been in good health and with the tender of the transfer came the appeal that change of climate would be bene- ficial, and be perhaps the means of pro- longing his life for the good of Method ism for many years to come.
 The Church Street Methodist church in it's entire membership is devotedly at tached to Dr. Andrews. To give him up to another conference and another state would be no little sacrifice. His ministry in Selma has been productive of much results for good and the Christian people of this community would dislike to see him go so far away. Still the church and this people cannot act selfishly in the matter, and if pr. Andrews, upon advice of his physician, shall find it to his phy scal advantage to take this step they will bid him God speed assuring him that their prayers will follow him wher- ever he may go

NETnflCUTT IS
AGAIN IN CUOR1

Attorney George M. Nethercutt
appeared before Judge Huneke
this morning to resist entry of de-
fault against him in his civil suit
to recover $1,000 alleged to be due
from Chairman George H. Collin
of the board of county commission
ers.
The court had previously issued
an order requiring the attorney to
file a bill of particulars touching
certain issues in the action. Mr..
Nethercutt appeared today and
filed a bill of particulars, making
allegation that the reason why he
had not done so earlier was be-
cause he had forgotten the exact
date mentioned in the order.
The court declined to open the
claimed default at present, but
gave leave to the plaintiff to make
showing on Wednesday as to why
he had not met the requirements
OF the earlier order. At the sans
time, Judge Huneke ruled that the
bill filed today was not responsive
in all respects to the order of the
court.
