Found to Be in Good
Condition.

Admission, Ala, May 5.-(SpeciaD. At
Shelby Iron Works Tuesday morning, E.
p Wright shot and Instantly killed him
self with a shotgun. Wright's mind is
thought to have been unbalanced as he
was only 20 years of age, and was living
happily with his wife and baby, child
two years of age The deed seems TO
have been a deliberate one, as Wright
arose early, and taking his gum said he
would go out to the garden and kill a
rabbit His wife saw him cut a SWITCH
which was afterward found with his body,
and it showed that he had used the
switch to pull the trigger of the gun
The load from the gun entered his body
In the region of the heart and caused
instant death. Wright was a brother of

Seventeenth street, and she has the SYM
pathy of her many friends. The re-
mains of the young man were inferred at
Shelby yesterday
Dr. Clarence ]. Owens, manager of the
Admission Lyceum and Bible Institute, to
be held here from May % to June 2. will,
in a few days. have completed arrange
ments for the weeks attractions. The
entertainments this year will be better
than, and different from those, of any
previous year, the departures being the
combining of the Bible institute with the
regular lyceum attraction, and the sys-
tematizing of the several features. This
year the morning services will be devoted
exclusively to didactic and educational
discourses while the evening sessions will
be devoted exclusively to popular themes
programmes of which will be completed
soon.
Counclmen Wikle, Cooper and Ward
and Superintendent Rudisill of the Annis-
ton Water Supply company visited the
water works reservoir yesterday at the
request of Mr.. Rudisill to make investi
cations concerning the fearful condition
of the water as reported by City Physi-
clan Moore. The councilmen being asked
on their return the result of their in
spection, DR.. Wile said that, in his
judgment, there was no need for alarm.
as the water was in good condition, and,
with the regular spring cleaning, which
would begin very soon, that the citizens
of Admission would continue to enjoy the
usual pure and wholesome water that
Admission had been blessed with for
number of years. Mr.. Ward who had
never seen the reservoir before. stated
that he was very agreeably surprised at
the neat and cleanly condition of things
generally at the reservoir The reservoir
was kept in better shape than he could
have expected, under the most favorable
conditions, to say nothing of his sur
prise after complaint had been made. Mr..
Cooper, who had visited the reservoir
several times in the last four or nve
years, stated that he had never seen the
reservoir in better condition.

has received much praise from all parts
for his work In the interest of Alabama
waterways and it was hoped that he
would remain in Congress many more
years to help out the Alabama streams.
However, he is a good democrat and will
be able to help in other ways. This
would be an influence in sending him to
the Senate If he should run. Bankhead
is poor man after all his years In the
service of the nation, having only his
place at Fayette, with a farm on the
Spsey river nearby. He may think that
he cannot afford to run for the Senate
after the expense incident to his race
for Congress. Alabama residents along
the water coures are looking to Hobson
to do good work for the rivers and har-
bors because he knows so much of con-
struction and engineering work as re-
suit of his education In the navy lie
will have great advantage over many
others in studying such questions in Con-
gress and 1t is natural for his home
friends to anticipate that he will make
good use of 1t to their benefit.

meeting in Birmingham next week look
Ing to that end. Mayor Henry A. Skeggs,
the Business Mems league and the BUSH
ness people in general have written in

next year, and 1t is thought that the in
vitation will be accepted The member
ship of the grand lodge numbers some

ample accommodations for them in every
respect IL they decide to come here.
The grand lodge has never met in De-
catur, and it has been ten years since it
has met in North Alabama. The MEM
bers of the order in this part of the state
want next years meeting to be held in
Decatur.
