u I. NICHOLS IS
 SENT ID THE PEN
Convicted of Obtaining Money
 Under False PretenSeS
PREPARING FOR OPENING
Tennessee Valley Fair Will Open at Huntsville on October 1.-The Affair Promises to Be
 Very Successful.

Huntsville, September 5.-tspecial)-J. T. Nichols, who claimed 10 be the agent o' a New York accident insurance com panJ, was convicted in the law and equity court today on three charges of obtain ng money under false pretenses and sen teneed To hard labor for the county for 66l days.
 Nichols was recently arrested in At lanta for the authorities here and was brought 10 Huntsville few days ago. He plead his own case in the court to- day and one of the most damaging points against him was the fact that he could not tell the court what company he was representing It was shown that he had taken applications collected for them, but that the policies that were promised never showed up.
 When sentence was passed on Nichols he broke down and confessed that he was guilty, but that he needed the money and was compelled to resort to fraud in order to obtain it.

 Living in his one room log cabin on the mountain side, the mountaineer and his family know little or nothing of the art of cooking. In his younger days there was nothing to eat but the inevitable salt pork and corn bread. It is hard to make a mistake in cooking corn bread when the only ingredients are water and salt and meal. But flour bread began to be used and nobody knew how to cook It. Vegetables that were grown on the place were all cooked alike-boiled, frequently without salt.
 Coming to the mill village the family was forced for the first time to buy everything that went on the table Knowl- edge of how and what to buy was lack ing. The grocer was patronized, while the truck wagon was passed by. Canned goods came into the family bill of fare A can of baked beans is tried for an experiment.

SCHOOLGIRLS UNIFORMS.
Details of Dress That Are Insisted
Upon by English Masters.

Details of Dress That Are Insisted
Upon by English Masters.
At many schools uniformity of
dress is insisted upon. 1t is sur
prising how much the casual visitor
lis impressed by trifing details of
dress, and if boys we're given much
latitude in this respect the impres~
sion would not always be good ono.
Black coats and waistcoats With
black ties always look tidy and re-
spectacle, and are frequently the
rule. At Harrow boys over a GER
tain height are allowed to wear
'tails," which, showever, do not look
well with straw hats. The Harrow
straws are familiar to most people,
having a crown of hardly an inch
in height; these are worn all the
year round, a custom which pre-
walls also at Winchester. At Elton
top hats are the usual headgear, and
one is sometimes treated to the
spectacle Of a boy clad in football
things surmounted by a top hat
At some schools one Is struck by
the enormous variety Of caps worn
bye the different boys, every house
having its own colors for the differ
ent school games. When clothes
are changed for football or cricket
this is reasonable enough, but under
ordinary circumstances the neatest
uniform is some dark suit with black
ties, the members of the various
school teams being possibly allowed
to wear their colOrs as a mark of
distinction. At MANY schools the
boys are compelled to wear cap and
gown, the projects in some cases
having the distinction of tassels to
their mortarboards. At Bradfeld
and Radley the boys wear gowns,
and at Winchester all the "colle-
gers" we're compelled to do so, but a
mortarboard is very heavy to the
head, while a gown is rather a hin
drance to boy, though it may help
to keep his clothes clean.
1t is customary for projects or
monitors to carry walking sticks as
a mark of distinction, and in the old
days at Winchester projects used to
wear cowlers or "cow shooters" as an
especial mark of dignity. At Har-
row boys great ambition is to get
his ''fez," which in appearance is
much like a smoking cap with long
tassel, but which confers a great
distinction upon the wearer. Brown
boots are not generally allowed at
school. All these various little de-
tails of dress are most vigorously en-
forced by the boys themselves as
well as by the masters, with quite
regimental exactness.-Baily's Mag
azine.

1t may surprise readers of THE

pers in Texas which cover so wide
a field as this. Not only does The
WEEKLY visit all of the states
named, but its local subscription
list is growing with such vast
strides, that it promises in the
course of another year to equal
even the oldest established weekly
papers of the state in circulation.
Naturally, the wide field cover
ed by this paper shows an equally
wide interest in the Brownsville
country, and proves that the eyes
of the people nearly all over the
Union are turned towards this re-
gion.
The chief object in calling atten-
ton to these facts is to impress
upon advertisers the Importance
of the WEEKLY HERALD as an adj
vertising medium. Especially is 1t
valuable for persons interested in
land development here, as in near
1y every Instance these subscribers
in other states contemplate visiting
this section with a view to making

their doubts removed by an inspec-
ton of the subscription rolls of

WEDNESDAY MARCH 8, 100 T..
FOREST RESERVES.

One recent act for which Presid-
eut Roosevelt has shown wisdom
and foresight was that of creating
extensive forest reserves for the
government. Congress, itappears,
differs from Mr.. Roosevelt regard
ing this matter, but congress has
100 often shown itself oblivious of
Ehe interests of the whole people
and willing to waste the resources
of the nation for the benefit of a
Jew individuals. 1t cannot be de
MED that President Roosevelt, on
che other hand, has the interest of
Ghe nation at heart as against the
Individual despoilers who would
sacrifice the future walfare of the
country in order to fatten their
bank accounts under the present
high tariff on lumber.
There is no doubt that, at the
Eate at which timbered lands are
being devasted in the United States,
a great timber famine will in time
confront our people. The rail
roads in the North already foresee
eE1is calamity and, after ruthlessly
wasting and destroying millions of
dollars worth of timber, are be-
ginning to take steps to retimber
their lands. President Roosevelt
IS beginning none too early to
guard the national interests in this
matter. European governments
are far ahead of us in this respect,
Russia and Germany especially
having large forest reserves. where
they will be able in time of need to
draw supplies of masts and other
ship tinbers or other such material
as they may require. The madness
with which we Americans have
wasted our vast natural resources
strikes the older nations of Europe
with astonishment, and the more
thoughtful economists of our coun-
try are beginning to counsel more
conservative and systematic meth
DDS. whereby the future interests
of the country may be safe-guard
ed. To these President Roosevelt
has evidently been lending his ear

THE late congress made appro-
priations of government money
amounting to almost billion dol
lars, being an excess of S19S, OoO,-
600 over the amount appropriated
by the 5Sth. congress. Yet despite
this extraordinary expenditure;
congress leaves Uncle Sam sur
