State Organizer of the same organizatior on the opening day of the Fair. which is to be named Southern Cotton As sociation and Farmers Union Day
 All of these changes have been made within the last few days. owing to the inability of those who were ; originally on the program to attend the event.
 In a letter received yesterday by President w. F. Vandiver of the Ala bama Agricultural Association. Sec. retary Wilson announced lis inability to come to Montgomery for the Fair. The duties of his office at the present time, he stated. will prevent the full fllment of the plans he made wh.r Mir. Vandiver extended to him the in- vitation last May.

 Additional forces of men were put to work at the Fair grounds yester- day, both in Exhibit Hall. where ex |. hibitors are building and decorating booths, and on the outside work which still remains to be completed before opening day. With the close necessary for the opening of tho exhibition was completed. A few fln- ishang touches to the exterior of some of the buildings. a little work on the race track. some additional work on the roadways through the Park. constitute practically all the work which still remains to be done before the opening day. Inside Ex- hibit Hall. carpenters and decorators were busily employed. The exhib,- tors who have secured Lace inside the main exhibition building. a-e rushing much of their work in the few days remaining before the big event, and the spectacle presented Is one of beehive activity. Several hun dred men are busied in the main building alone. Many of the booths are being constructed at considerable expense. and all give promise of b. ing tastefully arranged. When ev- erything Is complete. the Fair man. agement states the exhibits will be the finest ever shown at State Fatr in Alabama.
 Mrs. J. B. Reid and a corps of women assistants were .;ept busy throughout the day, receiving entries for the different premiums offered for the best exhibits in the Woman's De- partment. This department will occu- py the greater portion of the balcony which runs around the building, fur nishing a second floor to the struc- tura Products of the kit:hen, the sewing room. the pantry and tha stu dio will be in evidence. Among the entries received yesterday were many handsome pieces of needlwork and embroidery
 With the work of today the rre2- arations for the big Fair will come to a close. It Is probable that large number of men will be at work at Vandiver Park tomorrow, putting he finishing touches here and there. Tho main portion of the work to be dnne. however, lies with the individual ex- hibitors. and even this Is so tar olong that another day will make th's, too. complete

lures and every woman and girl In Montgomery Is invited to attend. The book of Genesis was selected by Miss Blogett from which to lecture during her stay in Montgomery and yesterday afternoon her subject was Noah" As in her study of the life and characters of Adam and Eve" and of Gain and Abel fin the previous lessons, she made of Noah a presence felt in the audi ence, in the realistic way which she handled her subject.
 Noah, according to Miss Blodgetts interpretation of that passage of the Scripture. was an ambassador of God to the people of his time. Noah was elected of God to carry a message to the people and to warn them of the punishment for their sins which He was preparing for them. With the warning He also made ample provision for their salvation. The message was one of judgment and the promise was one of salvation. He prepared great ark of safety for those who believed and the story of the lesson had to deal with the refusal of the people to be- lieve in the message or the messenger

and the ultimate end of the unbeliev- CTS. Her comparison in the lesson as taught in the preparation of the ark for the safety of the people and the destruction of the world by the flood, to the great ark of safety. the Lord Jesus Christ. prepared for His children of this day. was aptly drawn, carry. ing in its truth and earnestness. con. viction.
 There will be no lecture this after. noon. Sunday afternoon at o'clock at the Court Street Methodist Church Miss Blodgett will lecture on "Abra- ham," The study of Abraham will oc- cupy several lessons. Every one Is invited to attend.

Another important piece of legis- lation enacted by the last Congress was the pure food law. I am at this time actively engaged in preparing t, execute this law, which goes into eff feet January 1, and which also re- quires my own close personal atten tion.
 diver, could not possibly have been seen when you. Colonel Herbert and Representative Wiley made your per. sonal call on me last May. They have to do with interests vital to every citizen of the United states. and uo excuse would be accepted. if the De- partment failed of its duty to Con gress and the people.
 Tt is with great regret that say it, but 1t is really impossible for ms to be with you next week. I know the cordial spirit of Southern hosp:- tality, and l know I shall te missing one of the pleasantest occasions td which l have ever been invited. Very truly yours. James Wilson. Secretary"

 Letter From Wilson.
 The letter from Secretary Wilson to the president of the Fair Association follows:
 Department of Agriculture.
 Office of the Secretary,
 Washington. Oct. IT. 1906 Mir. ". F. Vandiver. Montgomery.
 Alabama
 Dear Sir:
 T have just received your telegram of this date. I recall your visit here in May last and my conversation with you. Reference to my letter of May F to you shows that I said. ex pect to attend your meeting at Mont gomery between October g and 27. unless something occurs that I do not now know of This was nearly two months before the adjournment ot Congress. and it was impossible for me to foresee that that body would enact legislation which would place upon this Department one of the heaviest, if not the heaviest, task It ever has to perform. mean the execution of the meat insp .ction law which has involved the selection and appointment of some 2,000 additional e"pRoyes anu the es'aotishheha 't Inspection at something like eight hundred plants.
 Upon the whole conduct of this great work I have kept the closest possible watch. giving it. indeed, the greater part of my time since July 1st and remaining in Washington through the entire summer for that purpose. I have declined every in- vitation to speak that has come to me since the law was passed. Now. though the inspection of meats is go ing on well and smoothly, the end of our labors Is by no means in sight, and I must continue to give the work my personal supervision.

ALDERMEN TO MEET
SPECIAL SESSION OF COUNCIL MON-
 DAY NIGHT.
Call Says Ordinance for Separate Street Cars and Other Matters Will Re Considered by City
 Fathers.

A special meeting of the City Coun- ell was called yesterday afternoon to be held Monday evening at o'clock. This action followed a meeting of the Finance Committee of the Council. at which the annual budget was taken up and discussed.
 The objects of the meeting. as set forth in the official call. are as fol- lows:
 For receiving and acting upon re- port of tho Committee on Finance.
 For receiving and acting upon a re- port of the Committee on Sanitation.
 For introducing and acting upon or dinances relating to street railways.
 Just what will be done with the street railway measure seems to be in doubt. The Aldermen are not talking about the matter. but 1t Is said that several members of the Council are beginning to see that things are included in the plan of requiring separate cars for the two races which were not intended by the Council at the time the ordinance was first passed. nor when 1t was pass ed over the Mayors veto last Monday evening.
 While nothing is given out as to the purpose of the Council. 1t would not be surprising If an effort was made by some of the Aldermen to have the sep arate car ordinance repealed. and re- placed by less drastic enactments de- signed to accomplish the same result aimed at In the present ordinance
 The meeting of the Finance Commit tee yesterday afternoon, which was at tended by Chairman Lobman. President Gunter and Alderman Strauss. agreed to recommend the passage of the ap- proportions ordinance as originally re- ported to the Council by the commit tee, except for the addition of $400 to the appropriation for parks.
 The immediate passage of this or dinance Is necessary because of the fact that until the annual appropria- tions are made 1t Is impossible for q single city warrant to be drawn. or for any bill to be paid.

There are three ways used by far mers for curing and preparing their tobacco for the market; namely, sun cured, air cured and flue cured. The old and cheap way is called air cured; the later discovery and improved way is called fue cured. In fue-curing the tobacco is taken from the field and suspended over intensely hot Aues in houses especially built to re- tain the heat, and there kept in the proper temperature until this curing process developes in the tobacco the stimulating taste and fragrant aroma found in Schnapps tobacco, just as green coffee is made fragrant and stimulating by the roasting process. Only choice selections of this ripe, juicy fue cured leaf, grown in the famous Piedmont country, where the best tobacco grows, are used in Schnapps and other Reynolds brands of high grade, fue cured tobaccos.
