Noise Made by Ducks.
 T have been reading in The Advef- tiSer. said property owner of Mont- gomery yesterday. about the cat and nDI,a nUs noisancs. ,.s & about the street ear m shorL about all the nu.sdncas of whlcn # seems complaints have come to you must say too. that have, most heartily to every one Sf the nuf '. sances winch have been treated of ih your Sidewalk Pencilings column, have heard # callsd the reform starter
 There is one nuisance. howeve:. :. and lt seems to be that some ,ng-suf- serinE oitisen should have drought 1t t0 your attention before. There IS q family In my neighborhood, some yer. estimable people, who, throughout the xreatsr part of the year. keep ducks which they fatten and kill As soon as one has been put out of tho way. they set in new supply. The instance l am citing. I do not feel, IS peculiar to my neighborhosd. have heard oth- city syeak of It. Now, l am as fond or ducks as anyone l Snow. But there IS one great objection to keeping them. and ar that IS that. unless they are mug all hours of the twenty-fou-. and by,so doing, they keep awake people In the naighborhood for a block around. whom I am speaking keep me .srwake the greater part of the night. It seems they are never silent The other night came in on a late train. ard Ai1 not had all died down. All but one. When two blocks apJ aShalf from home. l heard fry ne1ghbcr's ducks, and as l % mfs RGs oa tde s aoss Spon graw y arrival. that they had kept her awaxe
 Nov. ! do not know whether or not xens from keeping ducks. I suppose. were one suggested peonIe would raise cry against being deprived of personal liberty But know that as . nuisance, the luck has the stray :at, or the stray dog. beaten mile. These bother one only at certain times Of tho day, but the duck is an industrious fGSS'uae tims rgan qnu neb baye Seeb p awaSensG & @ from sound sleep by their chatter, and | know that my neighbors have all had the same exiierience, and ali hat' the same feeling in regard to the ducks"

 James IT. NunneIee of Selma will lay ita iaetantiy ths from from tS the tripod and with wistful sigh will close the soor of his sanctum behind him, and journalism in Alabama win lose one of It's best
 So spake a newspaper man who for merly worked in Selma.
 'fMr. Nunnelee went to Selma nearlY fifteen sScb sfars sSgo sditsa a a09 0ougn gnnbsbs for several years. After a Lrief inter val as correspondent he aRain ss sumed the editorship and mtnarenient fuI under his guidance. It Is well known among his friends that his 1rst renuhclation of the. editorship of The Times was made that he might retire to the ease and the dellshts e rural life and Mir. Nunnelee though he was unable to consumrate his hopes then. has never forgotten his dream of spending his old age, which really on. a little farm that he could call his own.
 "Jinn Nunnedee will be missed by his fellows In the profession. eut II iS h.,ai sn friends, that his departure from. news. paperiand will be most reEretted. yiln Nunnelee has a good brain hut he has men who have known his generous fricndship and eveF-smlling. charity win never forget his cheerful com- pan'onship. He edited his newspaper mles. if he has any. respect him. just as his friends love him
