CITY ATTORNEY ASKED TO DECIDE
 INTERESTING POINT.
Is Mayor Compelled To Purchase Lot Directed Fly City C0umeil--.JOnes Or Haas Property To Re
 Bought.

The question of whether the Mayor of Montgomery Is debarred from hav- ing any voice in certain matters adop- ted by the City Council came before Mayor Teague yesterday when he re- eeived the minority report of the Schools Committee, which was adopted by the Council Tuesday night and which directs the Mayor to purchase the Haas and James lot. corner of Me- Donough and Scott streets. for the pur- pose of erecting thereon new high School building.
 The unique and important point in- volved is simply whether the Mayor has no veto power in a matter of so much importance and interest to the people of Montgomery and matter in- volving the expenditure of between $14,000 and S15,000.
 The point involved Is, can the Mayor decline to execute the wishes of the Council by a failure to purchase the Haas lot and again has the Mayor the power to veto only on ordinances? Can the Council hereafter adopt resolutions directing him to do other things that

 Turning jocularly to the newspaper men he added: Now, | will be per fectly willing to serve you fellows at any time and I just want to ask you one favor. Don't endeavor to antici- pate my opinions"
 Judge Weakley left the office of the Governor and accompanied by Mr. Jackson entered the Supreme Court room where he was greeted by all or the members of the court,
 The announcement of Justice Weak ley that he would seek tho chief jus ticeship before the people next Tall was the important political develop ment of the day. Many thought that Justice Weakley after having had the honor of serving as Chief Justice would voluntarily retire from the bench and there would be no opposition to MT :. Justice John R. Tyson. who received such q strong endorsement from the bar of the State for Ine appointment.
 Justice Tyson, when seen yesterday and notified of the candidacy of Jus tice weakley. said that he did not care to make any definite announcement aI this time but that before the end Of the week he would let his friends know positively whether he would enter the race

 The Chief Justice affixed his sigma ture to the oath which was sealed and signed by Miss Offutt.

 Judge Weakiey announced to the Gov ernor that he was& ready for business. He greeted the newspaper men with marked cordiality. He seemed anxious for work Ills conversation was very cordial Turning to the newspaper men in the office he said: Right here at the start, to correct any misappre- hension or erroneous impression, wish to state; that I have not accepted the appointment to the office of Chief Jus tice of the Supreme Court of Alabama for the purpose of serving only dur ing the present year. and my name will be presented for nomination to tho suc- cession, under such plan as the Dem ocratic State Executive Committee may adopt.
 My candidacy will be directed by the Jefferson County Bar, more than two hundred of whom endorsed me for the place, aided by such persons as may be willing to cooperate with them, With this statement, I turn my un- divided thought and will devote my whole time to the onerous and press ing duties of the offlce."
 "I will return to Birmingham tomor- row night" said the Chief Justice, and will immediately begin work writing opinions. Of course I will spend much of my time in Montgomery, where l

Standing In the office of Governor Jelks, Samuel D. Weakley of Birming- ham, appointed Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Alabama to succeed the late Chief Justice Thomas N. Mo- Clellan, yesterday afternoon took the oath of office of his high position.
 For the first time in the history of the State the oath of office of a Su- preme Court Justice was administered by woman. To Miss Mamie offutt of Montgomery. a stenographer In the of flee of Governor Jelks, and one of Mont gomery's most popular young women. fell the honor of swearing in Alabama's s highest judicial officer.
 Chief Justice Weakley immediately began the performance of his duties. His going into office was impressive in It's simplicity. There was none of the pomp and the form expected on such an occasion: There were no begowned administration of the oath was wit Governor. the. close personal friend of vate office and did not know that the Chief Justice had taken the oath, until he was informed by Justice Weakley.

might not be consistent with the May ors views?
 The Mayor said yesterday that he will submit the matter today to the city attorney for a decision.
 The proposition of buying lot for a new high school building was before the Council last Tuesday night. Alder men Gunter and Foster submitted a majority report of the Schools Com mittee recommending the purchase or the Jones lot, corner of Adams and Lawrence streets. In o minority report Alderman Roemer recommended that the Hass and James lot be bought. The minority report was ultimately adopted by a vote of twelve to two. Alder man Gunter and Foster were the only members of the Council who voted for the majority report.
 Following upon the passage of the minority report there was immediate activity on the part of those opposed to it. The Board of Education, the Su- perintendent of Schools and majority of the Schools Committee had recom- mended the purchase of the Jones lot but the Council overwhelmingly voted to the contrary. The price of the Haas lot is $14,25O and that of the Jones lot $15,000
 The Board of Education and the Su- perintendent of Schools are strongly in favor of the Jones lot and 1t is likely the Board will have meeting at an early date to again consider the mat ter.
 It is suggested that the Jones lot Is more centrally located and that the cost of erecting the school building on the Haas lot will be much more than the cost of erection on the Jones lot. on account of the topography Of the property. This difference. 1t Is said, will be more than the difference of $750 in favor of the Haas lot on the purchase price. It is also said that the Jones lot Is especially adapted for school purposes with the court house on one side and the Carnegie Library on the other side affordinE an ample supply of light from every direction with no possibility of more buildings being erected to cut off the light.
 On the other hand, those in favor of the Haas lot claim many advantages for 1t, among which is central location and no adjacent car line.
 'I will wait for the advice of the City Attorney and then l will act" said Mayor Teague yesterday. "Ot course do not know positively which lot would prefer but from all I understand at the present time, l am inclined to the Jones lot"
 Also" continued the Mayor you know the city has not yet sold its $75,- 900 worth of bonds for this school and if invested with the power, l would not do anything until could sec where the money was coming from
 The outcome is anXiously awaited by the persons interested

Miss Lizzie E. Wimbish is dead This news will carry sorrow to many Alapa- ma homes and to the hearts or all re- ligious persons who are familiar With the great and uuselfish work MISS Wlmbish performed in the cause of for eign missions.
 She was a Presbyterian Missionary to Japan, and she died at her post Of duty. She passed away from earthly endeavor Tn Kobe, Japan, yesterday morning. The news of her death was conveyed to Montgomery in telegram to Rev. c. w, Patterson, D. D'S pastor of the First Presbyterian Church rom Dr. S. H. Chester of Nashville, Tenn, Secretary of the Committee on Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church. Evidently Dr. Chester had received cablegram carrying the distressing news. His telegram to Dr. Patterson was bare of details and all that Is known in Montgomery Is that Mss Wimblsh died in Kobe yesterday morn ing

 Tn 1887 Miss Wimbish went as mis- sionary to Japan as a representative of the Presbyterian Synod of Alabama.

She returned to Ja- pan, but came back to Alabama about four years ago and remained here and in California nearly two years seeking to improve her health which had been impaired by her labors In the orient.
 The news Of her death in foreign fields will cause profound regret wher- ever she was known. Her remains will be Inferred in Japan.

 How is 1t that Dr. Williams Pink Pills, recognized as a great blood builder and purifier. have effected such wonderful cures in severe nervous dis orders?
 The explanation lies in the fact that the nerves receive their nourishment through the blood. When the blood is impoverished the nerves starve and neuralgia or something more serious swiftly follows. Nervous people are generally pale people.
 By supplying through the blood those vital clements that the nerves need pr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People have performed those remarka- ble cures that mako 1t impossible for any nervous sufferer to neglect them with justice to himself.
 recent case is that of Mrs. Peter Morrissette. of No. Si5 Eleventh street, Alpena, Mich. who writes as follows:
 My trouble started with childbirth. After one of my children was born had kind of paralysis. I was very weak and my mouth was little crooked. I was always tired and was so nervous that I could not bear to hear a dog bark or bell ring--even the little bird in It's cage would annoy me My heart fluttered a great deal and had dizzy spells. I was not able to be left alone.

 This was three years ago and was very much discouraged when my brother, who had taken Dr. Will Hams Pink Pills. recommended them to me. I tried them and noticed change for the better when was talk ing the second box. Dr. Williams Pink Pills cured me and I have been well ever since. now do all my own housework. sewing and washing for seven of us. I have recommended the pills to number of people and am very glad to make this statment."
 The fact that Dr. Williams Pink Pills cured this stubborn case, as well as other more severe, leaves no doubt that they will cure lesser troubles arising from disordered nerves and lack of nerve force. They have also cured diseases caused by Impure or impoverished blood. such as rheuma- tism. anaemia. after effects of the grip and all forms of weakness either in male or female.
