STUDENTS ARE ARRIVING

Tuscaloosa, June 12.-(Speclal. )-Hon F. s. Moody, senator from this county, pro- poses to introduce a new dispensary bill when the Legislature convenes in July MT. Moody states that he regards the sys- tenn of controlling the dispensary as outlined in this bill as being superior to any that has heretofore been adopted
 The principal changes which it will carry with 1t are as follows: TO em- ploy a purchasing agent who will buy al liquors used in the dispensary, and who will store his liquors in a separate building from the one used for selling purposes. The purchasing agent will also bottle the whisky, etc. and put his label on it, with the kind and price of goods on it. He will deliver these to the dis penser, and take his receipt therefor. There is to be a change also as to the quantity that can be sold.
 III MT. Moody's former bill the mini mum amount that can be sold is half pint. This was based on the idea that one who wanted only one drink of whs- ky would do without this rather than buy as much as a half pint It appears
 
 correct, and this is to be remedied by allowing the purchase of as small an amount one ounce. And, on the other hand, the maximum amount that can be bought of whisky, brandy or gin, Is to be one pint There is also d penalty attached to the dispensers selling to one person more than once per day of not less than $10 nor more than $10O for each offense- The same penalty is also pro- vided for offering to buy.
 Mir Moody states that he was too much occupied otherwise to prepare this bill and properly advertise it for presentation at the first term of the present legisla- ture, but will submit it in July Thls of course if adopted, will not affect the election which is to be had here in Au- gust on the issde of "dispensary or pro- hibition." If the dispensary carries, how ever, MT. Moody states that he thinks it advisable that the changes made in the system now in use as indicated by this new bill. should be adopted in dis pensary counties.
 Tuscaloosa has been considerably liv- ened up by the arrival of the students for the summer school at the university. Although the authorities. for several req sons, had not expected q large attend ance this summer 1t is appearing now that the number will be in excess of any session previous to this one.
 Yesterday evening it was estimated that at least 100 students had already ar- vide, and the dormitories were filling up fast As there is very little done be- yond matriculation and classification dur ing the first fey days, there is gen orally not a large number present at this time.
 At about noon today or a little after l50 had matriculated and the dormitories reported to be filed This means that q large number of the students will have to get board out in Tuscaloosa The prospects at this time indicate that this session will surpass last years in at tendance, and probably in many other respects.
 Sam Aston took a small party of friends down the Warrior river this morn inI in his launch for fishing trip. The party will go down below Hull, Am which makes trip of about thirty-fve miles by river. In addition to the sport of fishing, the ride there and back in MT. Alston's handsome launch. will be a
