ALDERMEN STUCK ON THE NAMES
 OF PETITIONERS FOR FEE REMISSIONS

 Farleys salary has just been raised by the Council and he had to show them how good he was. Confidently he seized the paper. Smilfngly he glanced down the lines and then Farley tainted.
 When he recovered this is what ha read "Joe Cantanzano, E. Forkakis, Charley Chin Kee. Sing Lou, p. Mar kal1is -
 "waitP' shouted Alderman Leopold Strauss. as he wiped the beads of per- spiration from his forehead. We have been badly buncoed. We invited Presi- dent Roosevelt to Montgomery because. he had stopped the Jappo-Russo war. and the publication of those awful names, and here, right in the City Council, they are rising up and swat ting us on our aidermantc jaws.

 The clerk proceeded with IS. ungeR. westeott Arms Go" and he began to breathe more easily. There was but one more word and he hadn't broken a blood vessel. Again. however. he screamed. Aldermen rushed to the rescue and the name was--
 'V. Papadopola."
 'T move we lay that ordinance on the table" said Alderman Suflivan- Every nationality on earth is repre- scented in that bunch of names of dis eases, except the Irish. l won't stand the discrimination
 ''Oh. what's In a name7" asked Alder man Jones. and the ordinance was adopted.

There was once a place called Babel. Babel became distinguished because 1t was there that the people of the earth stopped talking one language and be- gan to get busy with Latin and Greek and Irish and Sanscrit and Bowery and other foreign languages.
 Alderman Nathan Lobman. an lnfiu- entiaI member of the City Council, had read of this place. but he was never as fully impressed with the truth of the story of the Tower than he was last night at the meeting of the City coun- cii. when he had occasion to read an ordinance reported favorab1y by the Finance Committee. of which he Is chairman, refunding to certain retail merchants SC of license fees erroneous ly paid in by them for retailing fire works.
 The body of the ordinance he read with smiling countenance, Alderman Lobman reads well, He came to the last paragraph.
 "Therefore be in enacted" read he. that the sum of $6 be refunded to R. Cohen, A. D. Cohen, John Coston. A. c. Cassimus." He pulled up short. The Ward Alderman felt his foot slipping. Mental anguish was depicted in every line of his usually smiling physiogno- my Even as small school boy spells and struggles with a pollysylla- ble, did Alderman Lobman strain and struggle over the next words that came before his eyes.
 'T will ask that the clerk read this ordinance" he finally stammersd.

"sweet CIOver.o

There is an enduring charm about sweet Clover" The simply sweet comedy drama of Pauline Phelps and Marion Short gives promise of holding interest with the public as long as Lottie Blair Parker's Way Down East," which was. and is still, the most successful play of this character writ ten in modern times.
 Sweet Clover" grows in interest with the years. One seems to find something new in the telling of the story with each recurring year. This is because 1t sinks the plumb line deep down into human hearts and touches us with Its elevating simplicity and it's reflection of our own loves and our own sorrows.
 This Is about the fifth season of Sweet Clover" and we enjoyed every bit of 1t last night at the Montgomery Theatre. To watch the unfolding of the story and to see the familiar faces was like running across bit of cher ished lace while ransacking in an old trunk or to feel the heart-quickening that comes with the sudden meeting of dear friend in a foreign land.
 But for the deIinquencies of several members of MT. Thayer's company, the Clover" would have been complete. MT. Thayer, himself. has improved in his work, and his leading woman, Miss Mana Bryant was a delight as Lois Holcombe. but no other member of the company showed praiseworthy effort.
 It is a convincing, living picture

THANKS CUTICURA
 FOR COMPLETE CURE

Some time ago I wrote you for hook on tke Cuticura Remedies and received it Q. K. and went and bought the Soap, Ointment, and Pills; They did he more good than any medicine ever used. They cured me of fmy skin disease, and I am very thankful to you. My trouble was eruption of the skin, which broke out in spots all over my body, and caused continual itching which nearly drove me wild at times. l got medicine of doctor, but it did not cure me, and when saw in paper your ad., sent to you for the Cuticura book and I studied my case in it. l then went to the drug store and bought one cake of Cuticura Soap, one box ot Cu- ticura Ointment, and one vial of Cuti- cura Pills. From the first application l received relief. I used th3 first set and two extra cakes of Cuticura Soap, and was completely cured. l had suffered for two years, and l again thank Cuticura for my cure. If you wish, you may publish this.

NO ACTION AS T0CAR TRACKS Council Again Postpones
 the Ordinance. COMES UP NEXT WEEK Substitute Measure Proposed by
 the Committee. Provides that Montgomery Traction Company Must Pay Percentage
 of Gross Income for Priv
 iIeges 1t Seeks.

The joint committee on Franchises and Privileges and Streets, which for the past month or more has had under consideration the ordinance granting the Montgomery Traction Company franchise to connect its tracks with those of the recently acquired Mont gomery Street Railway at last report ed committee ordinance to the Coun- cil last night.
 As soon as the ordinance was intro-' duced 1t was decided to postpone action until Tuesday night of next week. in order to give all the members thor ough familiarity with the committee or- dinance.
 The committee ordinance, which was prepared after hours of work yesterday afternoon, does not differ from the Traction Company ordinance hitherto published in point of the connections. The committee ordinance has, however, the following additional stipulations.
 Fares shall not exceed cents for a single trip.
 The consolidated company must give transfers on all lines. The company will be allowed to make reasonable rules, however, relative to the time limit on transfers and the place they can be used.
 Pupils of public schools during school sessions must be given fare of S1-S cents on all lines.
 A regular schedule must be maintain ed until Il p. m.
 The consolidated ompany must con- form to all laws in regard to the im- provement of streets.
 The company must pay S5.000 into the City Treasury for the privilege of the Council allowing the Traction Company tracks on Montgomery Street, Dexter Avenue and Lawrence Street to remain in their places 1t will be re- membered that under the original fran chise of the Traction Company 1t was stipulated that in case of consolidation these tracks which run parallel with Montgomery Street Railway trackS should be taken up.
 The company must pay into the City Treasury one percent per annum on all gross receipts for ten years, and there after the company, must pay in two percent of the gross receipts.
 It will be remembered that in the or- iginal Traction Company ordinance 1t was agreed that the Traction Company will take up its tracks on Perry and Mobile Streets upon consolidation of the two companies.
 At the meeting last night a peti- tion signed by many prominent citi- zens of Perry Street urged the council to allow the tracks to remain on that street.

 HANGED AT BRENTON.
Governor JeIIxs COmmutes Sentence to Life Imprisonment Because of His UnfOFtuante Condition Killed strawberry"
 GoOdIett.

Governor Jelks yesterday commuted the sentence of Jim Sommerville. me- gro of Brewton, decreed to hang on January 19, to life imprisonment.
 The entire public of Brewton and Es- cambia County seemed to rise up and implore executive clemency for the un- fortunate man.
 Sommerville was tried at the fall term of the court for the murder of Strawberry" Goodlett, a negro. Som merville was penniless. The court ap- pointed counsel to defend him. The trial had progressed when the attor- ney discovered that his client was de- mented.
 The evidence proved that the negro had come upon a crap game fin which Goodlett was a participant He had a shot gun in his hands and was soon in the game. A quarrel arose and Good let was killed.
