LECTURES ON ABRAHAM.
gnfresting Diae0srse to Women By
 Miss RIOdRett.

Miss BlOdEett.
 In the fourth of the series of BInle lectures which she Is giving under the auspieces of the Young Woman's Christian Association. Miss Blodgett took as her subject Sunday afternoon the life of Abraham in the light of Gods first dealings with him.
 From the record given in Genesis 12 and 13. Miss Blodgett drew some strong spiritual lessons Calling at tention first to the fact that God gives Abraham four commands. as against seven great promises. Gods gracious proportion-thorn was brought out the comforting human truth that Ab- raham. the strong man Of f'ith as he later proved to be. was In the begin ming of his experience half-hearted in his ohrdiece. small in his faith and all too readily led aside from the clearly defined path of right and duty. Yet the never failing mercy and patience of God led him on through doubt and failure and dsobedience to fullness of strength and faith. But oftentimes ho compelled God 10 use the sterner meth ods to bring him back to obedience where the Father would so much rath- CT have dealt with him in love and gentleness.
 So God would alw2ys deal with his children If the sin of their hearts did not lead them to disregard his com nTands and to take their lives in their own hands instead of trusting them to Him.
 Only in such obedience and faith can we know the rest and peace that is in Jesus Christ Miss Blodgett made a special point of the difference between knowing about God and knowing God "a difference that finds illustra- tion in Abrsham's life as he grows from a mere general faith in God to a real personal Knowledge of Him

Car Matter.
 special meeting of the City Conn- cil will be held this evening. accord ing to a call issued the last of the week, at which two or three import ant matters will be taken up for con sideration.
 The matter of introducing and acting upon ordinances relating to street cars is one Of the objects of the meeting. but the Aldermen are inscrutable. and nothing definite can be learned as to the exact plans of the Council with re- gard to the Traction Company. It is said that an effort will be made to re- consider the vote by which the ordt- nance requiring separate cars for the whites and negroes was passed over tn, Mayors veto. but this movement may take, instead, the form of new ordinance, repeating certain sections Of the recent enactment. and amending others, so as to make the legislation on the subject less drastic than 1t Is at present.
 There arc other members of the Council, also. who will not listen to anything but the most drastic and harsh measures, asserting that the Traction Company has not lived up to it's promises in the past. and that 1t is not now entitled to any sympathy or any consideration.
 The ordinance making the appropria- | tions for the various departments oi the city for the year beginning Octo- Der is to be passed this evening. per hitting bills contracted by the dir. ferent departments of the city to be paid. | There is also a report to be submit | ted by the Sanitary Committee of sht l Council upon matters referred to 1t al previous meetings.

 Race.

Elba, Oct. 21.-tspecial. .,-Probate Judge N Rowe yestert ay ended the suspense that has existed for several days in regard to whether the name Arlington would go in the Democratic column of the official ballot for Cof- fee county by announcing that he would place the names oi both under the Democratic emblem.
 This will necessitate the marking of the candidate for Representative as a mark under the emblem to vote a straight Democratic ticket would not vote for either of the candidates for representative. or 1t would vote for both.
 An error was made ia stating that there was not quorum of the Dem ocratic Executive Committee at the meeting here last Tuesday Eleven members were present in their own proper persons: the membership in full Is twenty-one.
 Nothing has been heard from either candidate expressing himself on the action of the Probate Judge in plac- ing both names on the ticket Such action was unexpected and seems to have created general surprise

FrelKhy bufe0u f0ekulotIWB OCbuJ0 ut DGpOts. "..--
 Manager H. s. Kealhofer of the Montgomery Freis Int Bureau, has is sued his first circular letter to the members of the Bureau, shippers of Montgomery:
 The circular relates to delays at de- pots in receiving freights and is as follows:
 ITO Mepbers:
 Pursuant to instructions at meet ing of Board of Directors. October 4. 1906, I have been handling with local railroad agents in Montgomery. per sonally and by correspondence. com plaint made by various merchants with resulting in detention of drays. ...
 'I am pleased to report that the agents have evidenced spirit of hearty corporation and are disposed to render all possible assistance. One line has purchased an additional set of scales and all of them have pre- pared to put on additional force du- ring the afternoon rush. It developed that one reason of delay was on ac- count of the failure of shippers to show weight on ther shipping tick cts. This feature was handled with representatives, of the Southern Weigh ing and Inspection Bureau. He states. it would be perfectly agreeable. ln fact desirable. to have shippers snow the weI ghr on each lot of the same commodity, on each shipping ticket. This will avoid the necessity of re- weighing each shipment dpon arrival at the depot, and remedy the trouble to a large exltrt. It is, ot course, an derstood that these weights are alwdH $ subject to correction. and l would suB Sest that much care be taken to show the correct figures on eacn shipping ticket
 Complaint made by the railroads was to the effect that frequently the shipping ticket would cover commo,li- ties loaded on two or more drays. rhls is very confusing to the receiving clerk, and 1t is desirable, if possible, to have separate shipping tickets GOV ering the specific artic:cs on each dray.
 T would recommend that you en deavor to cooperate with the agents, as suggested, as it will materially re- duce the cause ot complaint.
 My telephone has at last been i'm stalled. number 1896, and it will be my pleasure to have you call on me. Frequently.

Dietz yesterday, and he now holds un-
disputed sway for the time being, even
the watchers stationed near the ia
nous dam having decamped in fear OF
death.
The long-expected clash between the
sQuatter and representatives of the
state was participated in by practical
~ the entire Dietz family.
AS soon as the sheriff and militia
men came in sight of the Dietz cabin.
Dietz, his wife, two of his sons and
one daughter came out armed with re-
peating rifles. After the first volley
from the Dietz side one of the militia
men fell wounded. Bullets struck
him In the ankle, hip and neck. The
fusillade was returned by the militia
men. and after the smoke had cleared
away 1t vas seen that Clarence Dietz
had fallen. Then the would-be captors
of Dietz retired behind stumps and
trees.

For over an hour the battle was
continued. Fully $50 shots were fired

Sea Cows Back as Marking Pad.

People who visited the ZOO on the

the sea cow, a new acquisition, by
poking it with canes or pencils. Ex-
hausted by his efforts to stop the prac-

and told him to keep track of how
many people looked at the manatee.
At 6 o'clock the keeper looked up his
substitute.
There's been more than 5000 peo-
pie here" said the latter. l haven't
time to reckon up the exact number
yet, and won't until l audit my books"
Where's the paper you kept your

At Rice Lake there was excited talk
of organizing posses to protect Dietz.

cooled the people down. Public sym.
