aroMs or TIE CHRISTIAN
Peculiar Burial Place Erected BY
Monarch IN Algeria.

The Tomb Of the Christian in AL
geria is a pyramid ON the summit Of
hifl more than 700 feet high, at the
edge Of the sea, says the Autocar 1t
dates back to before the time Of. ST.
Paul, having been built by order Of
Juba H., the king of Mauretania, as
burying place for himself and his
wife, Cleopatra, the daughter of
Cleopatra and Mark Antony. The
only daughter Of Juba and his wife
was Drusilla, who married Festus,
the governor Of Judea in fhe time of
st. Paul. The tomb can be entered
by low doorway beneath one of the
four false doors. These have mold
ings on them of a cruciform shape
and may account for the title, ''The
Tomb Of the Christian" The pas
sage within the pyramid winds round
and eventually leads to two cham
bers shut off from it by folding doors,
which can be moved up and down by
levers. The tomb must have been
rihed of all it contained centuries
ago, though some think that by ex-
cavating in a downward direction it
might still be possible to discover
the burying places Of the king and
queen, supposing the two chambers,
like the false doors outside, TO be a
blind. Doubtless, the younger Cleo
patra had brought the idea Of max
ing a royal mausoleum in the shape
Of pyramid from Egypt. Portions
of a marble statue of Egyptian de-
sign were found at Cherchel, suggest
ing that an Egyptian colony may
once have existed there. There are
two other similar monuments in Al
geria, in the provinces of 0ran and
Constantine, respectively the latter
being considerably older than the
Tomb Of the Christian, which, how
ever, is the only one referred to in
ancient writings.

Police Matters Dull.

Since our last issue the police have
hardly had enough to do to keep up
a good circulation of the blood. One
fellow was arrested for lettering on
the streets and two people for forni-
cation. Every day looks like Sun
day" at police headquarters now and
the blue coats are getting nervous.
By their efficiency they seem to be
about to place themselves in the con-
dition in which poor Othello woke
up and found himself one morning.

Too obstructive.

The woman who was enjoying a
drive in the country pointed with
rapture to a beyy of white butterflies
which was flying around and around
in dizzy circle. "Aren't they love-
ly?" she asked, enthusiastically.
Her companion grunted;: "They
may look lovely to you, but the farm
ers hate 'em an call 'em cabbage but
terhies. They seem harmless enough,
but their larvae devour cabbages with
rapidity hence their name
When the farmer sees an unusual
quantity Of white butterflies hover
ing around he looks to his cabbages.
He knows he will find myriads of lit
tie worms on them, and that it is
only by the most strenuous meas
ures he can save them. This year
there have been focks of the white
butterflies, and it may mean that we
are to go cabbageless this winter. AT
any rate, if you buy any cabbages.

BIRDS coURTINe coLoRs.

The primary use Of the flashes or
bright colors exhibited by birds in
flight was probably for purposes Of
courtship. In displaying" before
their mates birds almost always
droop their wings and expand their
elevated tails, thus showing off to
full advantage the conspicuous colors
or markings.
1t is diverting sometimes to note
the tricks which the males ofeyarious
kinds Of birds have acquired in order
to display all their charms. Pigeons,
for instance, are very magnificent in
front, with rainbow gloss upon the
throat and breast; and these are
fully displayed in the act Of cooling,
when the male bird sweeps toward
the female on tiptoe, with head erect
and throat expanded.
But the pigeon is also very hand
some behind, with silver-blue back
and broad, black-barred tail. SO, as
he cannot display these when stand
ing on tiptoe facing his mate, he
pirouttes round at the conclusion Of
his coo, and gives her a chance Of adj
hiring his back view.

HOG CHOLERA
The Problem of a Cure is
Now Solved.

The much dreaded disease, hog
cholera, has lost its terror to those
who are posted on modern methods
of treating the disease. 1t is now a
durable disease. Any practical
farmer who will follow the instruc-
tons given by the manufacturers
can stop the worst outbreak of dis
ease that ever came and save almost
every hog able to take the treatment
and restore the herd to thrift in a
few days time.
The Snoddy Remedy, manufacture
ed by The DIR. j. H. Snoddy Remedy
Co., of Alton, ILL.,, has been used in
this country and has proven itself a
positive cure for the much dreaded
disease. 1t is now on sale in Hop
kinsvilIe, by the Planters Hardware
Co., Inc, who will furnish any farm
er or hog raiser one of Snoddy's
books on hog cholera, free Of charge,
who will call at their store for it
Full directions for curing hog
cholera is fully explained in this lit
tie booklet. Every farmer should
have one. They are free, and it is
hoped that the people will study up
on this new method of treating the
disease so they can feel safe from
the disease when raising hogs and
also so they will understand how to
keep the cholera out Of this country.
The remedy is also on sale by r. w.
Stegar & Dickson, down at Mason
vile, who will also furnish the
farmer copy of Snoddy's book on
hog cholera, who will call there for
it.
This remedy is the greatest worm
remedy and thrift prOducerfo hogs
there is on the market. The extra
gain they will make from its effect
will return the farmer an average of
SIS in this extra gain for every d,l-
lars worth of the medicine he uses
properly and right. Hence tDs'
remedy is not an expense TO a farm
er but is a profitable investment,
and one that paws a greater profit

CAPITOL'S INTERIOR
IT WAS DISCUSSED BY THE BUILD
 ING COMMISSION.
State Omcials Resolve At An Informal Sessien to Make Historic Pile Credit To Alas
 buma.

The Capitol Building Commission yesterday afternoon held an informal session in the ofice of Governor Jelks. It was devoted entirely to an informal exchange of views on the decoration of the repairs of the present Capitol.
 No definite action was taken at the meeting. The members of the Com mission simply discussed the best way to decorate the rather dingy interior of the old building. It will be recalled that $25,0o0 has been set aside by the Commission for the interior decora- tions of the present structure. This decoration is needed as much as addi- tions to the build are needed.
 The present structure was erected as far back as 1850. The floors and the walls are practically as they were when the building was first put up. The interior has too much of barn- like eeffct for Alabama in 1906. When the new and modern additions are fin- ished with their mosaics. marble waincoting and walls the contrast be- tween the present old-fashioned dark and plain interior will be marked.
 The commission Of course does not propose to change the character or the Identity of the historic structure. This was shown in its decision that the building. so haiiowed by history. should be kept for future generations as 1t had been in the past and that what ever room was needed by tho expan- sion of the State government should be furnished by the building of addi- tions.
 The meeting yesterday was prelimi- nary to the adoption of a general scheme of interior decoration. All members of the Commission attended the meeting with the exception of State Treasurer J. Craig Smith.
 Meanwhile excavations for the new South wing of the Capitol are being made. It Is to be completed December Ilb
