President of DIine Workers at Pitts.
 burg to Settle Tangle.
 PITTSBURG. Feb. 22.-"A strike in the bituminous fields is inevitable
 President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America, who arriv- ed here from New York, made the above statement at>the Hotel Henry.
 II am not here to have any confer ences with the bltuminous operators" said MT. Mitchell. My visit to Pitts burg is to investigate the trouble exist ing among the officers and delegates of the Pittsburg district organization"
 twill it be necessary to reconvene the national convention before a settle ment can be made between the miners and coal operators under the Ryan resolution adopted at the national con- vention at Indianapolis President Mitchell was asked.
 "The national president interprets the laws of the miners union," replied Mitchell.
 "You mean by that. then, that you can effect settlement in any district?"
 Ask Secretary Wilson," said MT. Mitchell.
 And the secretary is not discussing the Ryan resolution at this time," Sec retary Wilson immediately replied.
 Will there be strike on April IF" President Mitchell was asked.
 "As far as I know now" answered President Mitchell, with considerable hesitancy, "there will be strike"
 Tn both the bituminous and anthra- cite fields? he was asked.
 T will positively say nothing more" '"
 President Mitchell said: "The min CTS convention of District No. 5, hay ing removed President Dolan, the vice president, the secretary-treasurer and executive board, the national organiza- ton recognizes their right to do so. MT. Dolan. is no longer president of Dis trict No. 5 of the United Mine Workers of America"
 President Dolan on being informed of the move made by President Mitch ell stated that he would still continue to do business as the legally elected head of the district.

TIMELY CONFESSION
Condemned Negro, Rufus John
 son, Reprieved.
'SMALL'S WIFE FORGED HIM TO TELL
Governor Stokes Grants Stay of Thir- ty Days Owing to Statement of Fellow Reconsideration
 Was to He Tomorrow.

TRENTON, N. J., Feb. 22--Goyernor Stokes has granted reprieve for thir- ty days to Rufus Johnson, colored, who was sentenced to be hanged in Mount Holly tomorrow for the murder of Miss Florence Allinson at Moorestown on Jan. IS.
 Mir. Atkinson, the prosecutor Yin the case, had certified to the governor by wire that he would come to Trenton and make the application, and Supreme Court Judge Hendrickson advised the governor that the reprleve should be granted in view of the confession of George Small that it was he and not Johnson who killed the woman.
 The reprieye is for the purpose of giving the Burlington county officials time to make further investigation.
 MT. Atkinson will not give out copy of Smalls confession, but he says Small struck the first blow with a cherry club and does not absolve John son from all blame. Small was taken to Johnson's cell and, shaking hands, said ''Oh, Rufus this is too bad. am awful sorry"
 "So am l." retorted Johnson. T have always told the truth about this matter, but they thought was lying"
 The confession made by Small was in the presence of Prosecutor Atkin- son and Griffith W.Lewis. The first intimation that confession was com ing from Small was apparent when Detective Lore took Mrs. Small to the cell of her husband, to whom she said:
 George, they know it all. was not at home on Jan. IS, and am not going to He any more" This broke down the defense of Small, and he at once weak ened.
 Mrs. Small, wife of the second ac- cused man, was arrested and commit ted to jail, where she is held as a wit ness against her husband. Of course she cannot testify against him, but from her the authorities can secure much valuable information. She had l made some admissions, but it cannot be learned whether they relate to the murder or some robberies.

ENROLMENT LARGE
AT STATE UNIVERSITY
Students Begin Practice In Athletics.
Prospects for School Are
Very Bright.

Tuscaloosa, September 6.-(Special)-
The seventy-sixth session of the Univer-
sity of Alabama opened yesterday morn
ing with the brightest prospects of a
large enrolment in the history of the
institution. Ever since the beginning of
the week students have been gathering
in the city and when the doors of the
secretary's office were opened at o'clock
yesterday there were something like one
hundred students on the grounds.
Every train which arrived today
brought its full quota. 1t is estimated
that there are already over 200 new and
old students in Tuscaloosa at noon to-
day. One hundred and fifty had matricu-
lated and there are many here who have
not yet done So Every room in the dormi-
tory has been assigned and 1t is more
than likely 4. that boarding accommoda-
tions will run short before the enrolment
is over.
Football practice began yesterday after
noon with light work to get the stiffness
out of the applicants for the team. DR..
Pollard who will coach all the athletic
teams for the coming year, was in charge
and put the men through a short prac-
tice out on the athletic grass
All the members of the faculty with
one exception are on the grounds and
are busy assigning the new students their
work. DIR. Foster, who has been studying
in Germany for the past year, will not
return until the first of next week and
will then start classes in German to work
Immediately
AS far as can be judged from the pres
ent outlook the coming session will be one
of the most successful that the university
can boast Enrolment will go over 400
n1aa-c Af a O.
ulty are here so these facts, together
with the prospect for good athletic teams,
would seem to augur well for the univer-
sity during the next nine months.
The Rev. ]. r. Magill who has been
pastor of the Baptist church at North
Port for the last four years. has re-
signed his position and on last Sunday
preached his last sermon. He has accept
ed the church at Alfalfa, where he goes
this week to take up his work. Mr.. Ma
gill has great many friends all over
this county who regret to see him leave,
but who are glad to know that he has
been called to a larger field.
The Tuscaloosa County Baptist associa-
ton has just closed a most successful
meeting at Big Hurricane near Brook
wood. The work throughout the county
has progressed very materially since
their last meeting. The total membership
in the county was reported more than
5000 with property amounting to more
than $4,000 They contributed last year
to mission work $4,000.
During the past three months several
stores have undergone many repairs, the
most marked Improvement being the
placing of plate glass windows to take
the place Of the old fashioned ones.
Friedman & Rosenau are just replacing
their old front with plate glass. which
adds greatly to the appearance of the
building.
