COTTON TAGGING.

burg, one of the veFY statues of live ing man in the world, Moretti received the order for Vulcan, the Iron man, Alabama's xhlbit in St. Louis. and that is how it happened that he came South. Nosing about always in search of the finest marble in the world" he chAneed to go to Talladega, Eureka" There he has found 1t.
 when in Montgomery some one asked Moretti how the Talladega mar ble compared with the famed CaTrara of his own native land. Tt is far beta ter" was his reply.
 No fear prevents the building of the necessary railroad that will transport this "best marble in the world" and give 1t it's proper commercial value The men who are at the head of this great enterprise have been for some lime engaged in building the Birming- ham and Atlantic Railroad from Bruns- wick, Ga, to Birmingham. This road will touch the Moretti Talladega mar ble quarrles and soon marble will be shipped from there. The Talladega Marble Company, protected by MorettL Is backed py Henry M. Atkinson, the financial giant of Atlanta, who Is a large stockholder. P. s. Arkwright is President, signor Moretti Is Secretary, and Hon. Cecil Browne Is Treasurer.
 Of LlmitIess Value.
 What does this story of marble mean to Alabama. Its value Is llmitlessl Moretti now has a space opened of only 150 feet and he declares that there is in that space enough marble to keep their cutters busy for fifty to seventy-five years to come. Some Idea of the value of this development to the State may be gathered when 1t is
The Montgomery advertiser., 1906-12-16

noted that the commercial value of a cubic foot of rough hewn marble is from S2.50 to $5 and that the two quar- ries now in operation are working day and night attempting to supply the de- mand for Alabama marble And, too, when the fact that only two States in the Union produee white marble-Ala- bama and Vermont-is taken into con- sideration. Grasp the idea that both demand and supply are almost limit less and the gigantic importance of this development will present itself.
 Biologists report a strata of this beautiful marble to exist up and down the Talladega valley twenty seven ble Company, with a capital of nearly S4o0.0O0, owns two quarries on what Is known as the Mckenzie place, where they have purchased 300 acres, and twenty miles further down the river they own the Hurd quarry. Two quar- rles will be operated on the Mckenzie place in one of which the marble, light and blue, has been long uncovered. From the other about 300 yards distant the wonderful white marble--the joy of the artists soul, comes. This Mo- retti calls his treasury" The marble from this spot he refers to as the best ed his new home and just by is his studio. Here he is pursuing his life work; modling, casting, and cutting his conceptions into Alabama marble that will hold the thought for ages to come when the books of the great writers have crumbled Into dust Here the Italian artist has reached his goal and settled for life,

Guiseppi Moretti, the FIorentins Artist, and Something of His Life at the Qaarries in Talladega County Where He Has
 Made His Home.
BY Mns. ,. M. DeCoTTRs.

Tn the picturesque Taliadega valley, five miles from the town, nestless tine new home Of the distinguished sculptor Giaseppi Moretti, the famous artist who has come within the past five years to make Alabama his abiding place. and to do a wonderful share toward its de- velopment, to spread, through his own greatness, that of the state of his choice and adoption.
 After wandering over the globe ifl search of material with which to pur- sue hls life work Moretti, may say with all the meaning put into the beautiful music of the mellow word '.Alabama'' pyssthe Indians rough poetic sense: Here We Rest" He may say with the Lotus Eaters. Rest Ye, Brother Marl- ners, We will not wander more" It is not however, with hope nor wish.
 Tn the hollow Lotus-Land to live and
 lie reclined. ''on the hills like Gods together, care
 less of mankind"
 That the artist has selected Alabama as his home It Is for work. For a great work through which he will benefit the state from both an artistic and a commercial viewpoint.
 If one comes to ''do" Alabama, as an inauiFing tourist, a vIsiv to the marble quarry four miles soHtaeast of Talla- dega will be an important item in the itinerary. and this Includes a visit to the studio of Giuseppi Moretti and to his beautiful home nearby. Driving from the town one reaches the quarry by a somewhat eiFeuitous route Drawing up the last incline ana down the last declivity the first thing to greet the eye isl the heaps and expense of gfis- teninE marble, and the ears the sound

gone the iourney to Florence. where, In after years, his genius. was recognized and applauded with patriotic pride. His tutor and master, the man who did most to mould the boy's life, was Giovani Dupre, the great master whose name Is revered and whose work IS held in the highest regard in the art palace of Florence and In the galleries and salons throughout all Europe.
 When Gluseppi Moretti went to Flor erice to study the art of sculpture Du~ pre- was already in the zenith of his ca- reer He had done Abel and Cain, his Sapho and his Giotto had been pro- nounced masterpieces, and he had won renown through his statue )f the Duke of Wellington which is one of the great sights of London. Dupre himself Was a native of Siena and soon there sprung a warm attachment between master and pApii. It was a life friendship continuing until the death of Dupre in Iss2.
 For several years Moretti had sta- dIo in Buda Pest and It was there that his work attracted the t.ttention of tho Emperor Francis Joseph of whom the young artist made the three busts now in the galleries, Among Moretti's val- ued possessions arc many autograph letters from Francis Joseph, giving evidence of the loving esteem in which the Emper0P held the sculptor and or the high value he placed on his work.
 Connected with MorettI's coming to America there Is a somewhat sad story in which a broken heart figures. AL ways Oh the search for tine material with which to ply his art Moretti found by chance what he thought to be the finest marble in the world" In Carpathian ranges, in Hungary. The Emperor became enthusiastic over the discovery ana ordered engineers to as- sist in explerations and placed untold wealth at Morettrs disposal if the marble beds could be made of commer- cial value. The marble fields were far from means of transportation so railroad ust be built for diplomatic reasons. The government refused to allow a railroad to be built from the Russian frontier into the heart of Hun gary thus in time of war flowing the Russians to Invade even 70 l3uda Pest, to the very doors of the palace.

OBITUARY..
REV JAMES TAYLOR

REV JAMES TAYLOR.
Rev James Taylor, who had been in
failing health for many months, passed
away last week Thursday afternoon,
aged rs years and five months. He was
born in Lancashire county, England,
and came to America in 1851, with his
wife and first child, now Mrs E. ].
Hall. He began preaching when 81
years old. He joined the itinerary of
the Methodist church IS years ago. In
this period he has served Methodist
churches at West Farms, Williams
Bridge, Bronxdale, Saugatuck, Litch-
field, Beacon Falls, Sandy Hook, seven
years; East Village, Stamford circuit,
Goshen, Cornwall Bridge, East Mead
ows and Elmont, L. l., West Hartford
and Colebrook River. His second wife,
who was Miss Ann Sanford, and two
daughters, Mrs E. J. Hall and Mrs ].
r. Peck, survive him. Five children
died in infancy. A daughter, Miss
Mary, died about two years ago. Mr.
Taylor served in the Civil war, enlist
ing from New York. He was man
of the most genial temperament and
had the friendship of all classes in the
towns where he ministered. He was
Jealous in his parish work, and never

fought good fight, he has finished
the course"

Lightning struck the large tree in
front of Martin Troy 3 house at Bots
ford in the hard shower, last Tuesday
afternoon. The bolt glanced of, en-
tering the house through the screen
door and splitting the frame. 1t tore
from the wall in two rooms quite q
quantity of plaster. One Of Mr. Troy 3
daughters, who stood in the doorway,
received quite a shock. Fortunately
no other damage was done.
