Lowndes County Goes In
The Tenth Circuit
District.

What is known as the 18th Cir
cult Court District bill finally
passed the Senate last Thursday
and as soon as the Governor ap-
proves the bill it will become a
law. the provision of the bill be-
ing that it becomes effective six
ty days after it's final passage.
Tne bill is especially interesting
to the people of this county for it
changes Lowndes county from
the First judicial district and
places in the Tenth or Judge
Robert Cochran S district. The
necessity for this change was
made in the re arrangement of
the districts caused by the crea-
ton of the new Thirteenth dis
trict. Several counties were
taken out of the Eighth and
Tenth districts to go into this
new district and new counties
were added to the Tenth and
Eighth to take the place OF these
counties.
The change from the First to
the Tenth circuit court district
is an admirable arrangement all
round and it is endorsed general
~ by the mem bers of the Colum-
bus bar, who all realize the vast
necessity for additional court
terms here and who know that
the two terms which are at pres
ent held come at times when the
farmers and people can i'll afford
to be in attendance upon this
tribunal of Justice.
With the placing of Lowndes
in the Tenth district we will have
three terms of court each year
one held beginning the Third
Monday in May as it is at pres
ent. In place of the November
term we will have a three weeks
term beginning on the third Mon
day in January and another
three weeks term beginning on
the first Monday in September.

THE GREAT EVENT
New York Symphony Or
Chestra April 80, 1000,
at College Chapel.

That the importance of the
prospective appearance o the
New York Symphony Orchestra,
directed by Walter Damrosch
and presenting famous soloists,
IS appreciated is indicated by the
marked interest already display
ed in the event, the date Of which
is at the Industrial College in &C.
lumbus April Both. No orches-
ira ia the country has the stand
ing enjoyed by the New York
Symphony, and no conductor Is
more widely known and admired.
This is the 21st year of Mr..
Damrosch S activities as an or
chestra leader in this country.
When only twenty three years Of
age, he served as assistant direc-
tor of the Metropolitan Opera
House, and was active IN Secur-
ing the services of such artists
as Lehman. Alvarey. Fischer
and Seidl. His German opera
company attained great vogue
in the Metropolis. his successes
IN this field paving the way for
the achievements that followed in
the realm of orchestral music
Since the New York Sym phony
Orchestra was organized. its ad
vance has been steady under ex-
eeptiOnally favorable circumstan-
ces. until now it ranks with the
best organizations Of its kind Ia |
America. With a subsidy to aid
No bringing it to a high standard /
of discipline and rehearsal, the
orchestra popularity has contin-
eed to increase. as may be jadg-
ed from the fact that nearly 800
concerts are now given yearly.
In addition to his work in the
field of opera. oratOrio and sym
phouic works, Mr.. Damr0sch
has given frequent lecture reclt-
ais on the Wagner music dramas
and kindred subjects. Many i'm
portant compositions have receiv-
ed their first production IN this
country under his baton, notab ably
Cornelius opera The Barber of
Bagdad, Gold mark 5 Merlin.

and Pederewki' Manru.
The soloists who will be heard
with the New York Symphony |
are we'll known, and their work |
has everywhere won the war m

that the season in this section |
will witness no more i'm mportant I

flying manner. A number of
factories and mills have been
built here during the past few
years. and now comes the an
nouncement that we are to have

and spread out the need of a
more central location manifested
itself, and it was decided TO move
to Columbus. The machinery
by which the raw material is
worked up into the manufac-
tured product is operated in
the woods. where the timber
is convenient and close at hand,

) Woman's Trials.

The bitter trail in woman's life Is to
be childless. Who can tell how hard the
struggle may have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The abb
sence of this link to bind marital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
to mutual affection is a common disap-
pointment Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even If they
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent of their disappointment in the eyes
of such childless couple when they rest
on the children of others. To them the
largest family does not seem too numerous.
In many cases of barrenness or child
lessness the obstacle to collaborating Is
easily removed by the cure of weakness on
the part of the woman. DIR. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription has been the means of
restoring health and fruitfulness to many
barren woman, to the great Joy of the
household. In other, but rare cases, the
obstruction to the bearing of children has
been found to be of a surgical character,
but easily removable by painless operative
treatment at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute. Buffalo, N. Y, over which
DIR. Pierce Of the Fayorite Prescription"
fame presides. In all cases where chill
dren are desired and are absent, an effort
should be made to find out the real cause,
since it is generally SO easily removed by
proper treatment.
J In all the various weaknesses, displace-
ments, proiapsus, lnnammatlon anu oe,
biitating, catarrhal drains and in all
cases of nervousness and debility, DIR.
Plerce's Favorite Prescription is the most
efficient remedy that can possibly be used.
IT has to its credit hundreds of thousands
OF cures more in fact than any other
remedy. put up for sale through druggists,
especially for woman's use. The ingredi-
ents OF which the "Favorite Prescription
is composed have received the most
positive endorsement from the leading
medical writers on Mdteria Medicd of all
the several schools of practice. All the
ingredients are printed In plain English
on the wrapper enclosing the bottle. so
that any woman making use of this
famous medicine may know exactly what
she is taking. DR.. Pierce takes his pa
tients into his full confidence, which he
can afford to do as the formula after
which the "Favorite Prescriptions is
made will bear the most careful exam
nation.
DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the
best and safest laxative for women.

SKILLED WORKMEN
WILL Be EMPLOYED
BIRMINGHAM BOX AND VENEER
COMPANY START INDUSTRY AT
FROM 70 TO 100 MEN.

The Birmingham Box and Veneer COM
pany, of which Herbert r. Gill, recently
of Columbus, Ohio, is president, is start
ing an industry at Avondale that will
mean the employment of rs to 100 men, a
large portion of whom will be high-priced
skilled workmen.
The company begins with paid-up cap
ital of $4,000, and the property of the M.
c.. Reynolds Lumber company, covering
five acres, with ample switch and track
facilities for its log yard, saw mill, plan
ing mill, dry kiln and sheds for the stor-
age of finished stock. With the above as
a nucleus, there are being installed the
latest veneer cutting and other special
apparatus for box, crate, drum and slack
barrel making, as well as baskets and
veneers, and the management expects to
be In the market with some of It's pro-
ducts by October 1.
While ample supplies of gum, elm, pop
lar sycamore. cottonwood and other soft
woods can be had close to home for i'm
mediate wants the management is nego-
tiating for a large acreage of virgin for
est for reserve against future wants.
Industries, it is pointed out, are often
handicapped at the start for want Of am
pie cash, but the present one starts off
with abundant capital to aid the technical
skill and business .acumen of the owners.
Birmingham has become world-famous for
its production of pig iron, coke and 1t is
now entering the second stage of her de-
velopment when she works up her raw
materials, including timber. into finished
products, giving employment to much
high-priced labor. The Birmingham Box
and Veneer company belongs in this lat
ter stage, for besides being of great con-
venience to our local manufacturers and
produce men, it will keep many thousands
of dollars at home that have been an
nually sent out to build up other cities.

(Communicated.)
Card From T. s. Smith.

To the Democratic Voters of Jefferson
County:
One of the many so-called campaign
rumors has come to my notice to the eff
feet that Judge J. P. Stiles had promised,
or intended, to appoint me his chief depu-
ty when elected to the office of sheriff of
Jefferson county.
There is no more truth in the above
rumor than in the various others that are
being circulated by Mr.. Hgdon's sup
porters in this campaign. Judge Stiles has
made me no promise OF appointment, and
as far as / know he has made no one any
promise of appointment. I do not want
any position In the sheriffs office, and
would not accept the chief deputyship,
nor any other position. II 1t was rendered
me, and | am sure that it will not be ten
dered me.
| want to add that ] am supporting
Judge Stiles in his race because | think
that he is the best qualified man to fill
the position, and believe he will be
elected by an overwhelming majority.
Yours very truly T. s. SMITH.

FIREMAN JOHN R. MELTON
MEETS A VIOLENT DEATH
MILITARY MEN ARE
MUCH INTERESTED
WANT TO KNOW WHO WILL Sue
cEED ADJUTANT GEN'L BRAN
DON WHENoHE BECOMES THE
AUDITOR OF THE STATE.

Military circles are very much interested
in who is to succeed W. w. Brandon as
adjutant general of the state General
Brandon has been nominated by the DEM
ocrats for state auditor, which is equiv
alent to election, and in two or three
months he will be out of his present posi-
ton.
Several people have been mentioned for
the place, among them being Maj. Charles
Ledbetter of Birmingham. one of the field
officers of the Third regiment Alabama
National Guard. He is considered one of
the best military men in the state and a
man who is thoroughly capable of holding
the position and improving the national
guard of the state.
Among others mentioned is Colonel
Graves, commander of the First regiment,
A. N. G., who is also considered one of
the best military men in the state. These
two are more prominently mentioned in
connection with the adjutant generally
than any others.
Military men state that they hope the
man appointed to the place will be thor
ough military man. and one capable of
keeping the national guard up to high
standard. They want some one who will
devote all of his time to the place, stat
ing that this is critical time in military
circles in the state as it is believed that
in the next two or three years the state
will be in position to give the national
guard better equipment than ever be-
fore
