WRIT FOR BROTHER
WOMAN CLAIMS BROTHER IS HELD
 IN BONDAGE.
rallapoosa County Man Has Htm Under Apprenticeship Papers-Writ
 of Habeas
 Corpus.

After coming 900 miles t, secure the release of her 14-year-old brother. who, she asserts. Is being held in bond age and subjected to crael treatment. Ada B. Crafts, negress- of Los An geles, Cal, was yesterday granted through her attorneys, a writ of ha- beas corpus by Judge Thomas c. Jones of the United States CNrt. for the per- son of her relative.
 Three thousand miles, three-quarters of the width of the continent, the wo- man came to lay her case before the judge and to make her appeal. In place of the i'll treatment which she alleges the boy is receiving, she prom ises home and the advantages Of common school education. Instead of overwork which sh charges, if she se- cures the custody of her brother. sne assures the court she will give him the comfort of her house.
 The boy in question is Curtis Taylor. Sc yeral years ago, 1t is charged, after the death of his mother. the father or the boy gave him to Thomas Gardner, a white man of Dadevfiie. Iaiiapoosa County, under an apprenticeship agree ment. Since then the father has moved from his former home to New Orleans. Tn the petition which was filed in the United States Court for the writ of ha- beas corpus, the sister states she has the permission Of the father to take charge of the boy. but that Gardner has refused to surrender him.
 It is the legality of the apprentice ship agreement which will be attacked when the case is brought to hearing This compact, the lawyers of the wo- man claim, was not made In accordance with legal usage. The cruel treatment alleged on the part of Gardner con sists of overwork. The writ was made returnable tomorrow.

FEAST OF .PESACH"
WAS UsHERED IN YEs-
 TERDAY EVENING.
Commentaries the Freeing of the Chil- dren of Israel from the Bondage of the
 Egyptians.


 The Jews of Montgomery and of tho world last night entered upon a seven days celebration of Pesach. The Jews of the earth are today again rejoicing in commemoration of the anniversary of the freedom of the Children of Israel from Egyptian bondage.
 The annual celebration according to the Hebrew calendar. has again injected joy Into the hearts of Israelites the world over.
 The Feast of Passover. the term un- der which Pesach is most commonly known, brings to mind the Biblical ac- count of the deiiverance of the Jews from Egyptian tyranny and slavery. their hegira from the land of the Pha- raohs. across the Red Sea and into the great wilderness.
 Tn Montgomery Pesach was ushered in with appropriate holiday services at Temple Beth Or at 6;30 o'clock last night. The large house of worship held a congregation that taxed its capacity while Rabbi A. J. Messing delivered the simple but impressive ritualistic service. Special holiday music was rendered by the choir and Dr. Messing offered up a beautiful prayer
 The services were concluded at 7:a0 o'clock when Rabbi Messing dismissed the congregation to go to their homes for the observance of 'Sedar." func- tion held in Jewish homes on this oe- casion in rejoicing for the liberation of the Jews from slavery
 Throughout the period of Pesach. de- vout Jews eat no leaven bread, but ''matzos.' an unleavaned bread. as sub stitute, being symbolical of the man na' which the Children of Israel ate while in the wilderness.
 Services will be held at Temple Beth Or at 10 o'clock this morning, when Rabbi Messing will deliver a sermon.
 The Feast of the Passover will be concluded with services next Sunday night and Monday morning.

 4. AS I do not believe in the whole- sale denunciation of anything, be it a race. a nation. class, profession, so I do not believe fin the wholesale de- nunciation of proprietary remedies. It is our sacred duty to discriminate, to separate the wheat from the chaff, the worthy useful remedies from the worthless trash. Wholesale denuncia- tion Is worse than useless.
 5. The physician who says he never prescribes anything not in tho Phar- macopeia most probably does not tell the truth; If there IS such specimen, he deserves to be preserved in ror- maldehyde as a curiosity, and he ought to have 1t impressed on his mind that far from being an ethical physician, he Is a very unethical one, because he does not give. his patient the benefits of the latest research in materia medi- ca and therapeutics.

Water Increase.

The work on the big ditch at the
water plant is progressing slowly.
On Wednesday they began digging an
s-foot well about half way between
the south well and the old man-hole
to the northeast. The supply of wa
ter has already been increased 30 per
cen and when the work is completed
it is hoped to have it doubled. We
still believe the best system would
have been to have followed out the
plan suggested by Joe B~urns-namely
a chain of wells running northward
across the creek, but this would have
cost IA great deal more money than
the city cared to eXpend, so the scheme
was abandoned. There is no question
but the city water, at the present
time, is almost unfit for drinking pur
poses, but it can not be helped unit
the work is completed.

wholesale trade seasonably active
and collections in most lines are
good, though there are some exceptions.
Dry goods and millinery jobbers are
doing good business, number Of buy

Leading clothing manufacturers re-
port sales for the season thus far about
up to last years though there is an appar-
ent increase in the number of failures.
many of which are attributed to the I'M
usually mild winter. The outlook for
summer trade, however, is considered
bright. Manufacturers of shirts, shirt
waists, kimonos, eic., are well supplied
with orders, and business in fancy goods
and notions is improving. Shipments
of boots and shoes continue very sat

are more favorable than for some years
past.

cHoIoE ROSES sAIr FOR RATS.
Fragrance Of the Flower Lures AMI
mails to Their Doom.

Fragrance Of the Flower Lures AMI
mails to Their Doom.
The use of choice roses as rat bait
is to be experimental upon by the
biological bureau of the department
Of agriculture. The bureau has been
informed OF a number of cases where
rodents that spurned tempting cheese
and crackers, were easily enticed by
rose, and 1t is believed that the re-
suit Of the experiments proposed by
the bureau will be to show conclusive
ly that these flowers surpass cheese,
crackers, rinds of bacon and other
bats that are commonly used to en-
tice the rats into traps.
The use of choice flowers as bait
for rats will, no doubt, be looked
upon as unworthy and degrading by
the horticulturists and others inter
ested in plant industry, but when the
great value and Importance of roses
used In this manner is demonstrated
It is believed they will take another
view Of the case.
It is explained that 1t is not so
much the taste Of, roses that attracts
The rat as It is their fragrance, and
for this reason roses are expected to
be the popular bait for the future.
Cases have been known where ro-
dents, attracted by the sweet perfume
Of rose in house, have gnawed
through doors to get at the flower.
Rats have been known to become sus-
pieious Of traps with the familiar bait
of cheese and bacon rinds and easily
evade trap for long time. From
experience it has been found that
white roses. such as the dainty bride
rose or the snowy Nephitos, have
proved preferable in rat-catching.
