Saturday to accommodate those who want to attend the ball game to be played there between the Dwight team of Alabama City and the Pell City team to decide the amateur state champion ship to which teams lay claim. Tn csc teams have walked away with every thing in their class and are tied on tho games played together.
 In the last game played at Pell City the Dwight team was victorious in the twelfth inning up to which time nei- ther side had secured a run. The re- suit of saturdays game Is therefore creating great interest and a goodly bunch of rooters from both Alabama City and Gadsden will more than likely make the pilgrimage to the Magic City to cheer the Dwight boys and watch results first hand.

Frank w Hall, a prominent business man of Decatur, is organizing a board of trade, whose membership is to be made up of the business men of Decatur and New Decatur. He says that the outlook is quite promising.
 MT. Hall is of the opinion that an or ganzation of this character, whose mem bership Is made up of business men from both the Decaturs. that more effectual work for the upbulding of the two cities could be done and that the organization would have a strong tendancy to bring the two Decaturs closer together.
 The two cities have grown so rapidly during the past few years that they have now grown together and are practically the same city except in name, while 1t is true they have separate postoffces and separate city government. Mir. Hall Is of the opinion that the interests of the two should be mutual and that business men of each should work together for the betterment of both

His features arc tanned and his arm are

But his eyes are as bright az two eyes

And his reart is still light and merry
is lie.
And tho d:s In the yard and the bird on

Arc happy again for the coming of him,
And the breezes blow swceter than ever
they blew
And the sky seems brighter than eyer
before.
And tho world Is place in which

For the t.aughalot boy is at home once
more.
The IauGIalot boy has been out on the

And climbing the fences and wading the

lie has rolled on the grass, he has
played in the hay,
Ills muscles are strong and his laughter
is gay
lie has lizard the wind passing through
acres Of corn.
Tie has piucked the sweet ears and is
glad he was born;
And the breczcs blow sweetcr than ever

which they can be attached; and which
they would, when necessary, defend be-
cause they were born in it. All who are
born on the same soil are brothers. We
regard all men as being equal; this ap-
plies also to the Jews"
At the same meeting DR.. Petrini OF

said: cit would be an advantage to
make the Jews Roumanian citizens, for
then on account of their excellent quail
fcations they would be useful to us. -
may add that since the reception
of Nj. Take Jonescu, minister of finance,
at the court in Berlin, a more friendly
disposition has been shown in our official
circles toward the Jews. A compara
lively large number of Jews have been
naturalized without protests being raised
by Liberals or anti-Semites. Nj. Carp,
leader of the Junimists, spoke most en-
phatically in favor of granting natural
iZation to Jews to Il very considerable

tance to the history of the Jews.
On the 10Th inst. the regular annua!
meeting of the Deutsche ConferenZ-Ge
meinschaft der Alliance Israelite Uni
verselle took place in Frankfort. On the
preceding evening the vice president OF
the association, Herr Charles Hallgar.
ten. received at his house members and
delegates from all parts Of the country,
and the most distinguished Jewish resi-
dents of the city. 1t was a brilliant gath
ering. The president Of the Conferenz-
Gemenschaft, Privy Commercial Coun-
cillor Herr l.. NJ Goldberger, responded
in his accustomed felicitous style, on be-
half of the guests, to Herr Hallgarten' S
cordial welcome. DR.. Frank (COlOgne),
Herr Feinstein (Koenigsberg), Herr
Schlesinger and DR.. Blau (Frankfort).
Although Herr Hallgarten s guests did
not separate till the night had far ad-
vanced, they reassembled at half past
nine next morning in the great hall Of
the Grand Lodge of Frankfort. The
sitting, with a brief intermission for re-
freshments, lasted the entire day. Herr
Goldberger gave an admirably succinct
statement of the work achieved by the
ConferenZ- -Gemeinschaft and it's vast de-
velopment during the past year. Daily
it's hold increased on the Jewish pOpula-
ton in Germany. This increased hold
was in no slight degree attributable to
the new organ of the association, Ost
und West. This periodical was not a
financial speculation. 1t was designed to
carry into every Jewish household in
Germany Jewish knowledge, and a
knowledge of Jewish matters and there
was every prospect that to the fullest ex.
tent it would fulfill this mission. On
the motion of Herr Goldberger, it was
unanimously resolved that, by specia!
agreement with the central committee
in Paris, greater freedom of action with
out prejudice to essential solidarity,
should be secured to the Central German
office in Berlin; that the central commit
tee be requested to carry into effect its
own resolution of October "a, 1906, to
send number of pupils from the Ecole
Normale in Paris to Germany, for the
purpose of acquiring knowledge of the
German language; that the committees
in Paris and Berlin shall agree on a
scheme for training a sufficient number
Of teachers of the Alliance schools i'll
Germany, and that the right Of nominat-
ing teachers Of the German language in
the schools Of the Alliance Israelite shall
be conceded to the committee of the Con-
ferenz- z-Gemeinschaft. This right Of
nomination should at once be exercised
in the schools in Morocco where, as far

The ma ajOrity of the Jewish candidates
for the DOuma were defeated through
the Vaccinations of reactionarieS. Only
the three following were elected Rabi-
nOwitZ, an engineer of EkaterinOslov;
Abrahamson, a lawyer from Koons, and
Schapiro, a merchant from Kurland.
All these are members of the Liberal
Constitutional Democrats party. Rabin-
OwitZ, who was born in 1859. is director
of the Irmin coal mines, and is the all-
thor of several works on workmen's s in
surance. Schapiro is a wholesale lumber
exporter, and Abrahamson is lawyer.
The last two are members of the Society
