 "It has been said and doubtless truly. recently, hy a very prominent nbvsician who was in q position to know what he was talking about, that our county jails were little short of death holes. I know from personal observation that the Montgomery county poor house Is a veritable cess nool of vermin and filth. The in- mates are there so poorly provided for that the Salvation Army and oth- CT benevolent institutions have come themselves are forced to go upon the street and beg. in order they may have sustenance, and all this horrible suf- fleeing among the poor exists in the midst of the cultured. refined. aristo- cratic and wealthy classes of people '"

 The ground coupled by the present building is about 100 by 225 feet. and is valued at about $10.000. It serves the purpose of a library very well at present, although it is not nearly as large as the Library Association would like
 that while the library is large enough to satisfy the needs at present f is T subject of much criticism by Mobile people. She says this may be due to the small quarters. and also the lack nf much reading matter that all up to-date libraries should have.

The railroad men take the position they are willing to give the lawmakers all facts and figures as to their business in Ala bama and to assist them so far as lt .s their power to assist the enactment of legislation, but they claim some of the pending legiglation is not only unfair to railroads but that it is unconstitu- tional in It's effect upon the rights of property.

 "Effective January 29, Mir. s. B. Mur- ray was elected assistant secretary and treasurer of this company by the Board of Directors. This. in addition President and General Manager"
 The foregoing is an order issued from the office Of the Second Vice President and General Manager of the Mobile, Jackson and Kansas City Rail road T. F. Whittelsey.

He served In that capacity for four years and went to the Seaboard Air Line coming to the Mo bile. Jackson and Kansas City in Jan uary, 1906.
 In connection with the change of control of the Kacey, by which the Yoakum interests take charge, Gen. eral Manager Whittelsey says that the ownership of the road has not changed but simply that B F. Yoakum will have the controlling voice Tn the road. the Frisco having owned 2,S00 shares of the Kacey stock for the past two years. With the advent of MT. Yoa- kum into the management of the Mo bile, Jackson and Kansas City Road will come improvement all along the line, and more especially in the ter- mlnal at MODlie. vast cnAnBeS are planned for the road, improvement of the tracks. roadbed. bridges. stations and terminals. before the Frisco trains will be operated over the line. the Kacey thus not losing its identity even though under the control and management of the Frisco interests, President Bird M. Robinson of the M. J. and K. C., and B. F. Yoakum will soon make tour of inspection of the entire line. arriving in Mobile 1t Is expected, within a few days.
 As a part of the Rock Island system. 1t is thought In railroad circles that the Kacey will strengthen that sys- , tenn against F. H. Hartman. who now controls the Illinois Central, by giving 1t Gulf outlet. The Rock Island has been building toward New Orleans from several directions. and will in time have an outlet to the Gulf in that way, but through the Kacey route 1t acquires line from Chicago.

The thieves also made away with several fine suits of clothing, two pairs of fine marine glasses, revolver, and consid- erable other property.
 The robbers boarded the ship while >the master was absent in the city, he having spent a portion of the night at the Concor- dia Club. They unlocked the door to the cabin and were not noticed by either the special watchman or any one of the crew. It was not until the master returned after o'clock this morning that the robbery was discovered.
 The thieves failed to fin one of the lockers $70o which the master had drawn from the bank Saturday afternoon. The police department has been notified and be- lieye the men who are operating here are those who robbed vessels in Gulfport. Miss, last week.
