Elephant Life In the Junsles.

Without elephants jungles would be
virtually impossible. The great beasts
are a mixture OF strength and weak
ness. of craft and simplicity. The
paths through the jungle from village
to village are merely tracks from which
the interlaclng foliage has been cut
and thrust aside and the virgin soil
trodden into a black mud. After a
rain this mud is many feet deep, and
no living creature except an elephant,
a buffalo or a rhinoceros could labor
through 1t. The elephant makes his
way by lifting one foot at a time and
inserting it deep into the slough in
front, withdrawing another with a
sound like the popping Of a huge cork.
Nothing but a ride on an earthquake
could be compared with the sensation
Of being run away with by an Gle
plant. AS for stopping him. some one
has we'll said that you might as well
try to stop a runaway locomotive by
pulling with your walking stick on the
funnel as seek to check an elephant at
such a moment with a goad.

Cured After Twenty Years
of Torture.

For more than twenty years Mr.. j.
B. Massey, OF 1922 ,-.nton ST., Min
neapolis, Mimi, was tortured by
sciatica. The pain and suffering
which he endured during this time
is beyond comprehension. Nothing
gave him any permanent relief until
he used Chamberlain's Pain Balm.
One application of that liniment re-
lieved the pain and made sleep and
rest possible, and less than one bot
tie has effected a permanent cure. If
troubled with sciatica or rheumat-
ism why not try a Is cent bottle of
Pain Balm and see for yourself how
quickly it relieves the pain. For

 It was one of the prettiest weddings seen in this city. The handsome church was beautifully decorated with white lilies and palms for the occasion.
 Mrs. John W. Payne played the wedding march from Lohengrin. Six pretty little girls sang the wedding chorus The bride was attended by Mrs. McClelland Raymond her sister, as matron of honor, and Miss Ida Cald- we'll was maid of honor. The brides maids, six in number, were gowned In pink and white over dresses. The oueenly bride was gowned in duchess satin en train and carried bouquet of lilies.

 After the ceremony the bridal party was driven to the residence Of MT Raymond and partook of most elab- crate wedding dinner. The happy cou- ple will reside in Huntsville.

BEauEsTs OF MISS HENLEY.
Distribution Of Property Of Demopolis
 WOmnn.

Distr1puthou Uf Property or DemopOIf' Woman.
 Demopolis, March 10-(special. )-It is learned that the will of Miss Grace A. Henely, whose death occurred at the home of her sister in this city last Tuesday afternoon, makes the follow Ing distribution of her property.
 She bequeaths $500 to the Methodist Church; $150 is left to have a memorial window put in the church for her; all her household effects are left to her sister, Mrs. S. G. Woolf; her jewelry Mrs. W. D. Spurlin and the proceeds of the sale of her real estate with the balance of her money is left to the support of her niece, Miss Mary D. Glover. of Milledgeville. Ga.
 At t--e time of her death Miss Hem ley had a cottage in course of construc- tion on her property on Perry street and this is now nearly completed
 Every one is interested in the out come of the contest of the municipal primary election next Tuesday. In the primary J. B. Meriwether was nomi- mated for mayor of Demopolis by a majority of eighteen votes over Col onel Norman G. Winn, and the con- test was brought about by the friends of Colonel Winn on the ground of the alleged Illegal voting The disquaIifi- cations alleged are homage, non-resi- dence and non payment of poll tax.
 The contest will be held at the city hall and will probably be exceedingly strict, and indeed contest to the end, as the fight will be mainly for prin- ciple.
 It is the general opinion that the contest will result in very little change in the result of the primary. It is not believed that 1t will effect the nomina- tion for mayor and city attorney, but changes in the nominations for coun- cilmen.
