Aldermen Are cailsd To Meet Frlds
 HnvAnAaas

Aldermen Are called To Meet Friday
 Evening.
 While President AppelSon of the Montgomery Ira .@lon Company has been in Montgomery during the last two days, conferring with his attor- neys and General Manager W, Fl. Rag land on the troubled situation here. there have been rumblings of another eruption on the part of the City Council which may have something to do with traction matters. Just what the rumbling portends is a mys- tery, for since the tempest of last Saturday, the Council has been DOT cautiously quiet.
 That the calm was deceptive, how ever, was the inference drawn last night when 1t was announced that a call had been issued for a meeting of the City Fathers for Friday night at o'clock, for the purpose of consid- ering and acting upon resolutions, ord inances, or other matters pertaining to street railways.
 There are two other objects men, tioned in the call. The Council will introduce a refunding bond ordinance, and VIII receive a report from the committee on finance on the bids for city provisions. But those are regard ad as heinz mere side iSInes. the Street car problem. it Is confidently antici- pated. being the rincipaI business of tho meeting. hl3t
 Several calls for committee meet ings were also announced last night. meeting cr the joint committees on parks and finance will be held Sat urday afternoon in. the Council cham bers at o'clock, and at the same time meeting will oe held of the Park Commissioners.
 The Committee on Judiciary will hold a meeting todvv at I2 o'clock noon in the Council chambers to con- sidst number of matters. City Att torney E. c. MacIntyre. City Engin- ger \. R, Gilchrist. James E. Hickey, proprietor of the New Exchange Ho- tel John Hannon, Mrs. Lucy Rudolph. P. M. Collins. Mrs. N. T. Ledyard and James Fuller, have been requested to appear before the committee at the meeting.

Attorney RushtOn of Traction Company Says HEr. ABpeTson Will Leave Situation to the Local

Apperson of Lynchburg' Va to Montgomery, was given out by Raw Rushton, attorney for the com pany, after the departure of President Apperson for his home last evening. During the afternoon discussion was held between the head of the Traction company. General Manager W. H. Rag land, and his attorneys, in which the fender uroposition and the many other difflcuIties now existent between the company and the Council were gone over thoroughly.
 MT Appersoni" said Attorney Husn- ton last evening, "did not feel that he was called upon to make a statement fo the public in regard to a future course of the company He was not eonversant with the entire situation untiI after he had talked the matter over with us, and although we went over matters generally, he felt that those who were looking after the inter ests of the company here were In a better position to judge the attitude which the company should assume than
 oIp regard to the fender ordinance. however. it may he stated on my au- thority, that if the Council inspects the guards now in use on the street

 'eThe fender ordinance provides that the cars must be equipped with either lenders or guards such as the Council shall approve It is a matter of fact that in many cities the lenders are hefne thrown away as junk. It has been found that they result in injuring more people than they save. aFor in- stance a fender reaching out when fine car is turning a curve, Is a menace and a danger to people standing near inc track greater than the car itself TInvvaver if the Council should indi- cate what fender 1t wishes Us to adopt, there istno doubt the company will comply with its wishes"
 This is the only statement which has been given out to the public in offieiai or semi-of1cial form during President Apperson's visit. Prior to his coming. t was anticipated that after looking over the ground, the President of the Montgomery Traction Company might give the dissatisfied portion of the public an idea of the intention or attitude of the corporation with reEard to the street car service in Montsomery.

 University, Nov. 28.--( Special 1.-The University football team will leave this afternoon for Birmingham, where the final game of the season will be play4d tomorrow afternoon with the Uniyersh ty of Tennessee.
 While the team is far from being In prime condition, local supporters are hoping for a victory for the crimson and white Tn addition to the fact that Garrett. Franklin and Harmon are more or less in bad shape physically, 1t now seems probable that Sims will not be able to play. It will be remembered that just before the Auburn game a protest as to Sims's eligibility was filed by Coach Donahue.
 Vice-President Holmes of Mercer has just rendered his decision in the mat- ter, which declares that Sims was eligi- ble for the Auburn game but that he cannot participate in other athletic contests until his case has been ruled on by President Dudley of Vanderbilt In the short time between the date of this notice and the Thanksgiving game it will be a physical impossibility to have Prof Dudley to make a ruling. so that Sims will not be allowed to par ticipate in the Tennessee game, al- though his athletic escutcheon may be cleared later.
 In fact, Dr. Smith of the local ath- letic committee, is sure that he has con vincing evidence to disprove all of the charges brought forward by the Ala bama Polytechnic Institute
 President Abercrombie returned yes- terday from the University of Virginia, having been invited there to attend a conference of Southern educators
 Tomorrow has been declared a holi- day by the University faculty. and a large number of students will avail themselves of the opportunity to take Thanksgiving dinner at home. A few will go to Birmingham to witness the Alabama-Tennessee football game

A QUESTION FOR FARMERS.

Can as Fine Potatoes Be Raised in
the Pecos Valley as Those Rails
ed In coIorado2
In reply to the above question, A.
L. w. Nilsson, Of the Hondo Stone
Manufacturing Co., states thai drain
ed land is better than undrained, be.
cause in draining the alka1i is re.
moved. His experience in many To-
.calities, especially in his old home,
has demonstrated the fact that if the
land is we'll cultivated and a fertilizer
used, as fine potatoes or any other
root vegetables can be raised in the
Pecos Valley as in Colorado or any
other section of the country.
He fails to see the necessity of
purchasing the Colorado. or Califor-
MIA product, when as good can be
raised right here, and there Is a
home plant here which manufactures
the necessary thing.
Mr.. Nilsson says that after two
years trial Of a small piece Of tiled
land the farmer will not only have
increased the value Of his property,
but will have one of the most prolific
potato gardens as well.

What heights and depths of joy
and despair, citation or dependency,
attend the propensity to e and feel
intensely. Whether sensitiveness be
a misfortune or a gift divine depends
upon the m~omentary mood of mind
when the impression is taken as well
as the light in which the picture is
posed.
Chronic sore-headedness is not SO
sensitive as it is stubborn n coldly
selfish. The constituencies which
transports one to heights supernal,
then drops him down to depths infer
nal, has intelligence, hope, quick per-
ception, good humor and adaptability
on occasion-then comes relaxation,
resentment, melancholy and a desire
to b. left alone. In reaction sensi-
tiveness may appear a demon, in
flights of awakening an angel.
Why should the sensitive man ex-
pect people OF sober common sense
and reason to either conform to his
pettish whims when the divine affia-
tus fails, of fly with him to realms
of bliss ethereal when his pipe
dreams take the wings of imagination
to explore the mysteries of infinity.
True there is beauty and entertain
men in cloud pictures, but the sun
doesn't shine always, and clouds
bring snow, rain and slush. A mans
overshoes often pun off in the mud.
Then the darling of the gods"
