 Presidents Report Is Read.
 The next business in order was the reading of the presidents report by Hill Ferguson The report was as follows:
 "ltis working.
 For many years we alumni have look ed on, in an indifferent sort of way, at the uniyersity's career, and helped indi- vidually whenever We were called on.
 But more recently there has arisen n sentiment that great things could be ac- eomplished for the university and for our own personal pleasure if the Alumni socie- ty would get busy of it's own voition. Out of this sentiment has come the work of increasing the alumni fund to lend to good students who need assistance in completing their courses; has originated the soeiety's new motto, Quarter Million Dollar University Improvements in Next Five Years for the insttution's imme- diate benefit; and has developed the idea of class reunions at the university every five years for our own pleasure and benefit.
 Two years ago, at the suggestion of Hon. Sidney J. Bowie. the society deter mined to raise five thousand dollars within five years time, at least, to add to the small alumni loan fund, which had been doing such splendid work under the guild ance of our worthy treasurer, J. H. Fitts. Over three thousand dollars of this amount has already been subscribed, and Treasurer Fitts and Secretary Palmer have collected up to date, two thousand, one hundred and thirty-five dollars in cash and seven hundred and twenty-five dollars in solvent notes in all nearly three thousand dollars. 1 shall be very much disappointed if the remainder of the five thousand dollars is not more than raised at the approaching commencement ex- ercises.
 Counting on Great Things.
 I've are counting on great things from the geological museum committee, under the chairmanship of MT. Robert Jen1son, who is. in my opinion. the most prominent 4 and successful developer in Alabama. This q lommittee was appointed last May to for rsmulate plans for building a geological museum for Dr. Smiths invaluable col lection. and to present them at the ap- preaching commencement. The committee held a meeting in Birmingham. January 27. last. and unanimously decided that the society must not limit it's endeavors to the erection of one building; the uni versity must have not only d geological museum, but also an academic building, en adequate gymnasium, library build ing. and last, but not least, larger en- dowment.
 'So enthusiastic was the committee on this question, that they raised among themselves five hundred dollars, with which to have the best experts in the United States examine the three hundred or more beautiful acres comprising the universlty's campus and prepare plans for

pleaded with his wife to prove she

Brooding over the attitude of rela-

and he threw his bride of six weeks
to the floor, drew a hunting knife and
threatened to kill her. The bride
pleaded desperately for her life, and
the husband lifted her to her feet.
Then, sitting at table, he told her
he would leave her all he had.
He rose from the table and they

comprehend what he was about to do,
he placed the muzzle of a shotgun in
his mouth, pulled the trigger with his
foot, and blew off his head.

thought secure, fell down and locked.

AVOID LUNG TROUBLE.

Take one-half ounce Virgin oil
of Pine (Pure), two ounces of
Glycerine and eight ounces of
good whisky. Shake we'll and
take in teaspoonful doses every
four hours. It is said to break up
a cold in twenty-four hours, and
cure any cough that is durable.
An eminent authority on lung
trouble says if this simple and
effective formula was known and
generally used, throat, lung and
bronchial affections would seldom
reach an acute stage. Care should
be used in selecting pure in
gradients, and to avoid snbstitu-
ton it is best that they be pur-
chased separately and mixed in
your own home.
The Virgin Oil Of Pine (Pure)
should be purchased in the orig
inal half-ounce vials put up ex-
pressly for druggists to dispense.
Each vial is securely sealed in a
round wooden case, with engraved
wrapper, with the name Virgin
Oil of Pine (Pnre) = - plainly
printed thereon. Only the cheaper
Oils are sold in bulk, but these
produce nausea, and never effect
the desired results.
