BIRMINGHAM BEHAVIOR APPOINT
 ED BY GOVERNOR.
Given OfIlce i'm New Circuit Court Conn prIslng Jefferson County, Cre- ated by Legislature
 Backed by Bar.

Hon. A. O. Lane of Birmingham yes terday was appointed additional judge of the Circuit Court of Jefferson Coun- ty, He is the first man who supported Dr. R. NJ Cunningham in the last gn- bernatorIal campaign to receive ap- posntment at the hands of Governor Conner.

SISTERS United
IN THIS CITY
AFTER YEARS

Two sisters, one from Nashua and the
other a resident for Providence, were re-
united here today after years of separa-
ton. One OF these sisters is Miss Cathe-
rine Carmichael OF Spring street, Nashua,
and the other, who has married during
the years of separation, is now Mrs.
Studley.
There ws never happier girl than
Miss Carmichael is. "Why should 1 not
be happy7 she asked. II have found my
sister. 1t is like a romance, and at first I
could hardly believe II was true. To live
years with the thought that you have no
kindred In this wide world and then find
you have sister is enough to make any
person happy"
Mrs. Studley and Miss Carmichael have
not seen each other since they were chill
dren. Their parents lived In a small town
In Nova Scotia. When they were young
their father died and their mother mar
ried again and the two girls were adont-
ed. They then became separate, and about
III years ago Miss Carmichael came 20
Nashua to live. Since that time she has
earned her own living,
Miss Aida Gendon of Nashua. N. IL.
was the means of uniting the two sisters
Miss Gendron has been visiting I'm ProvI-
dence, and while here she became ac-
duainted with Mrs. Studley, who called at
the house where she was visiting. Miss
Gendron noted the resemblance between
Mrs. Studlcy and Miss Carmichael and
spoke Of II. Mrs. Studley then began to
make inquiries regarding Miss Carmichael
and finished by telling that before her
marriage her name had been Mary Jane
Carmichael and that Catherine Carml-
chael must be her sister.
When Miss Gendron returned to Nashua
she called on Miss Carmichael and at
about the same time a letter came from
Mrs. Studley arranging the reunion.
