She stated that twenty-nine of the States of the Union have taken steps toward the establishment of public lf- braries. with Massachusetts in the iead and the Southern States fagging behind.

 Mobile. July e.-(special )-The su- preme Court of Alabama has dismissed the case of Percy Baldwin vs. the board of. commissioners of washington Coun- ty. to prevent the removal os the court house and jail from st stephens to Chatom.
 This does not end the litigation as the matter is now pending In the cir cult court and will probably not be f. nal1y settled for sometime.
 The proposed removal of the court house of Washington County from St. Stephens t oChatom has been fought bitterly and the citizens of the county are divided on the question. The de- cisioh rendered by the Supreme Court which is a length yone. simply dis misses the rule nisi granted by the circuit court. prohibiting the removal of the court house. In other words. the Supreme Court declares that the circuit court has no right to decide an appeal from the board of county com miAsioners. an administrative body. v

Sanitary Department Makes Announce
 ment of Contagious Disease.
 The Sanitary Department makes an- nouncement of the greatest number of small pox patients under treatment at the Emergency Hospital at the present time than has been the case for e num- Der of months.
 During the past week. since Thurs day, four patients have been taken to that institution to receive treatment at the hands of A. E. Thompson, the keep CT. and all four cases are reported to be progressing fast on the road to health.
 Of the patients at the bospitad, three are negroes. Doc Clanton, Tom Jordan and Cy Bowling, and one. F. H. Shelby. is white. All three of the negroes are said to have been with their contagion in North Montgomery, hence the Sani- tary Department is paying especial at- tentfon to this section, making inspec- tions every day.
 Mir. Shelby is a well known fireman of Scott Street Station. He is reported to be recovering rapidly, and will prob ably be on the streets in the course of the next week. None of the diseases are of virulent nature.

THE FRESH AIR CAMP
CAPTAIN ODOM ANNOUNCES OPEN-
 ING OF INSTITUTION.
Will Locate Resort for Poor People of Montgomery in Cool Place Near
 City--To Be Free.

The Salvation Army in Montgomery will open Fresh Air Camp about the middle of this month for the bene. fit of the sick and bfoken- down women and children of Montgomery who are not able to take vacation at their own expense.s 4
 The camp will be located in some shady grove little distance from the city where there is plenty of good. cool spring water. The camp will be fur nished with chairs, hammocts, cook ing utensils, tables and the things usual to a camping life n tents
 As soon as the tents can be bought and site decided upon. the first nun Der selected by Captain Odom will go out for a weeks time. At the end of the week they will return to town and the second number will be taken out and so on through the summer months. In some especial cases where mothers and children are very badly in need of an outing and have not improved suf- ficiently to return to the hot city at the end of the first week. they will re- main two or three weeks until thcif condition is satisfactory
 No charges whatever win be made for anyone going on these~Week out ings. Board, nufsfng and in some cases medicine, win be entirely free.
 Captain Odom is experienced in this line of work. He says that there is much need of a camp in this part Of the South. The cottages of some of the working class are small and not perfectly ventilated and with the heat of the summer months sickness is more dangerous on account of this lack of ventilation. The Fresh Air Camp" will supply the nuch-needed rest and cool for such patients.
 While location of the camp has not been decided upon definitely, it Is ex- pected that, 1t will be located in the vicinity of Pickett Springs.

will be presented to the Lssisiaturs by tho Committee.
 Representative Gaston Guntsr of Montgomery. is Chairman of the Com mittee. The Committee was raised to prepare general municipal code which It was hoped would prove acceptable to the Legislature. The Constitution places this specific duty on the Legis- 1ature The Legislature of four years ago dodged the issue and went home without preparing the code.
 It was realized then that the solu- tfon of the problem would require care and diplomacy. Before preparing the code the Committee must classify the cities of the State according to popula- tion. The new code is then to provide form Of government for sach city in any particular class.
 The trouble arose right there. To provide a new city government natur- ally meant the abolition of the old city government. In every city of the State there arc of,icehofders who do not want their own special system changed for something they do not yet understand. In~many instances polit- ical machines have been built up around the operation of the city gov ernment.
 So when the Legislature began to work away on the new code something like howl went up. Nothing was done during the winter session of the Legislature and by common consent the whole thing was given to the Commit tee. The Committee had fine pat tern to work by. Judge J. J. May field. State Codifier, had drawn up a manuscript municipal code when he prepared the general code and it was turned over to the Committee. The meeting of the Committee yesterday was to put the finishing touches to its report to the Legislature and last meeting will be held tomorrow when the report win be signed
