BUSY WEEK IS
 THE FORECAST Rush of Legislation is Promised. TO RECONSIDER MEASURE Educational Blll Win Be Put to
 Vote Again. Action on Railroad Matters and Local Option the Central Figures of In-
 terest in the Upper

The present week Of the Alabsms Legislature will be one of the busiest weeks of the entire session. It has been generally predicted that the Leg islature will split the fifty days allow cd by law, and that the first half oi the session will come toNan end in the neighborhood of February 14.
 4 rush of legislation is therefore looked for this week, as the knowing members will get behind the bills in which they are interested for the pur- pose Of pushing them through 5efora the first adjournment.
 The principal event of the present week will be the election of two United States Senators on the same day. Tues day. something which mas not happen. ed before, it is said. in the history o1 the State, and which has happened in- frequently In the United States.
 The circumstances that two Senators are to be elected on the same day grows out of the constitutional provision for a quadrennfal session of the Legislature. Both the terms of Senator Morgan and Pettus will expire before the conven. ing of the next Legislature.
 The term of Senator Morgan expires March 4th, next. The term of Sena- tor Pettus will expire March 1, 1909. Both Senators will be elected for new terms of six years each, at joint ses- sion of the House and Senate, which will be held Tuesday at noon.
 I've oldest Senators.
 It Is an interesting fact that the two Alabama Senators are the oldest members of the United States Senate. but they have retained their mental and physical vigor to remarkable extent. So firm are they in the regard of the people of Alabama. that when the Sen. atorial primary was held last summer. no man in Alabama dared oppose then,
 The Senators will not come to Ala bama to address the Legislature. The Legislature has already. by joint res- olutlon, Informed them, if they thought their duties demanded it, they should remain in Washington and not make the trip to Montgomery. The elec- tion Tuesday will be a mere matter of form, the recording of the will of tho primary.
 In the House the interest will icen- ter today on the proposed reconsider ation of the bill passed Friday. which gave an increased annual appropriation of $400,000 to tho common schools of the State.

SCREAMS SAVE
YOUNG WOMAN
Anna Broczkes Attacked by
Unknown Man Who
Makes His Escape.

Anna Brocazkis, a 19-year-old girl
residing in the north side. was as
saulted by an unknown man yester-
day afternoon shortly after o'clock.
Miss Brocazkis was walking down
Hoffman street near Columbia avenue
toward the business district, when an
unknown man jumped out from the
bushes by the side of the road and
attacked her. She screamed loudly
for help, and, upon hearing an : ap-
his escape. The girl at once ran back
to her home and notified her parents,
who called up the police department
An officer was sent to the north side
but he was unable to find the man
who is described as follows: Age
about As years; weight, $50; light hair
and mustache; height, feet inches
and wearing a long black coat.
This is the second case of assault
upon women within the last three
weeks. Elizabeth Lobitz, a dressmak-
er, while on her way home unprotect-
ed. was attacked by an unknown man
and only for the barking of little
dog she would probably have beer
choked to death. This man made his
escape but he is supposed to be rail
road man and the police are still look
ing for him.
The police believe that they have a
clew to the man who assaulted Miss
Brocazkis.

NO MORE POLICE" !"
LAWRENCE BECKER
People Seem Satisfied With
the Force is Mayors
Ironical Remark.

It is not likely that there will be a
further addition to the police force
Of the city of Hammond in spite of
the fact that the metropolitan police
law has not been repealed and in view
of the fact that there is a dire neces-
sity for more men.
Mayor Becker was interviewed this
morning in regard to the matter.
Now that the metropolitan police
question has been settled will there be
likely to be an addition to the police
force of Hammond" asked the re-
porter
I'VE will have to wait until the cen
sus is taken in 1870" said the mayor.
you don't mean to say" said the
reporter, that the people of Hammond
will have to wait three years before
an addition is made to the police
force?"
THE people seem satisfied with the
force they now have" ironically re-
marked the mayor.
The council could make an appro-
priation for additional officers, could
they not?" the mayor was asked.
We'll" said Mr. Becker, Il know
pretty we'll in my own mind what
would do if they did authorize addf-
tional policemen"
Don't you realize that the force is
entirely inadequate. and that a small
number of men are compelled to cover
a remarkably large extent of territory
at risk to the property and persons
of the citizens of this city?"
The reply of the mayor was a repe-
tition of a former remark: The peo-
pie seem satisfied" said he. I'VE have
already fixed the levy and there viii
not be much money to spare for addi
tional police and new levy will no
be made until next fall, and so I dom
see how anything could be done unit
then"
THE law provides that the mayo
may authorize special census to b.
taken that will enable the city to Sc
cure its full quota of officers or twelv'
additional men, was the next sug
gestion; but the mayor said he under
stood that this provision applied onl.
/ in cases where cities have just entered
the metropolitan class.

The pure food law does not operate
