by a process of law. That thing SO
delicate should be made so monstrous
ought to be punished in a manner be-
fitting such a culinary crime.

to adjourn, and the game law was left up in the air until today. Resume Game Law. On the Senate reconvening, the priv ilege of the floor were extended to Joseph Ho1lier. George Barbour, W. R Fairley. Judge Al Driver and J. B Talley.
 The Senate resumed its consideration of the game bill. Senator Reese with drew his amendment. which had been offered at the morning session. Sem ator Thomas offered a substitute to the amendment of Senator Lusk. The Thomas substitute fixed the salary oi the State Game Warden at s2.500. Sen ator Lusk moved to table the amend l ment but the motion was lost, ayes, q nays. IT. The motion to lay the amend ment on the table, made by Senator 1 Lusk was lost by the same vote. Sen ator Lusk spoke again against the bill.
 T hope the Senate won't pass this bill" said Senator Lusk. You propose to pay jay bird keeper in Alabama s2,5Oo while you only pay your Secre- tary of State $1,Soo."
 Senator Hinson pointed out that the $2,500 was the entire expense of the department, while the salary of $1,S00 paid the Secretary of State was only one item in the expense of the Sec- retary of State. The Senate then adopted the substitute of Senator Thomas.
 Senator Strother also protested against the passage of the bill. He declared the salary of the State game warden was not the only item of ex- pense in the bill It provided. he said. for clerk hire as well as for other ex- penses.
 Senator King drew the attention of the Senate to the fact that every dol- lar paid the warden and every dollar paid in expenses came out of the game and fish fund. If there was no mon- ey in the fund there would be no sal ary. and no expenses. The department would cost the State nothing.
 Senator Lowe presented an amend ment making the game warden of the State appointive by the Governor in- stead of elective by the Legislature. Senator Lowe said he saw in the ma chinery of the bill possibilities of a dangerous and powerful political ma chine. The game warden. he said, could direct the appointment of 1.940 officers in the State. a fact which gave him great political patronage. The amendment was voted down 15 to II.
 MT Lowe then proposed to amend the Dill by making the county war dens elective. but this amendment was lost by the same vote.
 Senator Lusk offered an amendment providing that the election by the Leg islature should hold only to January. 1909. and providing. too, that the game warden should be elected at the gen. eral election of 1908. This amendment was adopted by the Senate.
 Objects to Searching.
 Senator Miller offered an amendment. which struck out 1ection 22, the sec- ton authorizing the game warden to conduct searches to ascertain if there were any violations of the law The senator declared that under the read ing of the section, the game warden could search the refrigerator of any private citizen of the State. It was conferring the right to search an of- ficer without any due regard to the law.
 Members of the committees explained that-the provision of the bill was drawn to prevent violation of the law by allowing the game warden to search
The Montgomery advertiser., 1907-02-05

refrigerator cars, and to prevent the unlawful shipping of game by common carriers. The committee. however agreed to accept Mir. Miller's amend ment.
 MT. Lusk wanted the feature of the bill providing for the hunter. whether man or woman, going to the probate judge and asking for hunters license stricken out.
 Now imagine if you can. Mir. Presi- dent, an old maid 35 years old, going into the probate judges office to get s hunters license," said MT. Lusk. I'm agine the judge asking the color of her eyes. and then think of him asking how old she is."
 "Can you imagine an old maid like that wanting hunters license" asked Senator Reese.
 "Yes, and I can imagine the game warder atfer her with a boquet bloom ing in his button hole, replied Mir 1.usix Don't you think the game warder would have better taste than to go af- | ter that kindT asked another Senator as the laugh went around. The amend. ment was tabled. The same fate await ed two amendments offerd by Sena- tor Reid. one providing for the election of the county wardens, and the other to strike out Section 45. The major ity would have neither.
 Senate Laughs at Lusk.
 Senator Lusk then offered an amend ment. which aimed to eliminate the payment of the deputy wardens on spe- cial service.
 T believe the people of Alabama want a game law" said Senator LuslS. but they don't want all this machin- cry. all this investigation. all this reg ulation. What are we coming to?
 why this Is a day of regulation" said Senator King and the Senate which has occupied most of It's time in an at tempt to regulate railroads, laughed. The amendment was voted down.
 Senator King. as Chairman of the Committe which reported the bill. spoke briefly for it's passage.
 'The committee did not bring that bill in carelessly or hastily" said Sen- ator King. Tt was carefully and thoroughly investigated. We believe that the bill presents as fine a game law as that of any other State. The continuous criticisms that have been offered here. do not seem to mo to have any merit in them. The men who have opposed the bill can have the consola- ton of knowing that they have pleas- ed and served we'll the men in Alabama who are opposed to the enactment of any game law"
 Senator Lowe offered an amendment changing the open and closed season for wild turkeys In Morgan County, but the amendment was voted down. The bill was then passed. with only five dissent ing votes.
 The Senate took up a House mes sage which sent over lot of bills that had been passed at the other end of the Capitol Thes were quickly assigned to committees and the Senate adjourn ed

RETURN BILLS
 TO SENATE Administration Measures Amended. SUBSTITUTE IS OFFERED Date Of Maximum Rate Law is
 Changed.
 --s- k To Be Based on Tarins Charged ny Railroads January 1.--Prsposed Damage Goods Esactment
 Passed.

g,e Senate bill making the present yates of the railroads for carrying freight the maximum. was passed yes- terday by the House. but In ..sch con- dition, says it's opponents, that ft IS , almost sure to result "a immediate iir- igation. For 1t was necessary, in the. opinion of those having the measure in charge, to substitute new bill for that which passed the Senate, thereby mak- ing the railroad rates on January l, last, the maximum sates, ratho- than those now in force.
 Not the slightest opposition developed in the House to the passage oi the max imum rate bill, nor to the measute nx- ing the amount of damages by rail- roads for falling to deliver promptly and properly any freight entrusted to its care. Indeed, no time was given for any possible opposition to gather It's wind, had there been any symp- toms of such opposition. MT. Long, of Butler County. the administration lead CT on the railroad bills, moved the pre- vious question on both of them before the reading clerk had recovered his breath from reading the repeating clause at the end of the two measures.
 The only argument of any kind on either measure was a brief statement by Mir. Long as to the necessity for adopting the substitute to the maxi
 
 bill as 1t came from the Senate. This was due, he said, to the fact that the railroads have been raising their rates since the rate bill was first proposed, and it was not desired to give them any such opportunity as thati 1t was wished merely to have them leave the rates as they have been in the immediate past, ss the maximum rates permitted to bo charged.
 Wants To Know Who Arc arIs.c
 An amusing Incident occurred during this explanation. Mr. Long had re- ferred once or twice to what had been decided by us," and MT Gunter of Montgomery. gravely asked him to ex- plain just who he meant by "us" A quiet smile went around as the ques- ton was asked; no one dared to laugh.
 It is a peculiar fact that both the measures were amended by the House, and had to be sent back to the Senate for concurrence in those amendments, / The substitute was adopted to the max cal errore were found in the measure of damages bill which necessitated minor amendments to 1t.
 It had been intended to adopt the antf-pass bill also, it having been made h special order for the day. immediately following the disposal of the measure of damages bill. The hour grew so late before it was reached, however, owing to a protracted consideration of the Question of going to Mobile to Mardi Gras. that 1t was determined best to de- fer the anti-pass measure untii today

MAY PROVE FATAL
PARTICIPANT IN FACTORY ROW FIGHT IN SERIOUS CONDITION.
Tom Hall Cut and stabbed in Ftfteen Pfaces-~Any One of Four Wounds
 May Result fin Death.

Tom Hall. A victim of the affray IT Factory Row Sunday night. may die from his wounds. In thes struggle hf was cut in fifteen places, and sofnE of his injuries are serious. perhaps fatal in character. Last night it was stated that Halls condition was not favorable and that any of four wounds might have a mortal result.
 Frank Presley, who was stabbed m the head, Is in better condition and his surgeon expressed the hope last night he would recover. He and Hall are still abed.
 Roan ward, who is alleged to have cut the two men, is still incarcerated in the city prison. The formal charge against him is held in abeyance. D E. Presley, who is alleged to have had part in the affray. Is incarcerated on a charge of assault to murder. No new evidence in the case was obtained yesterday.
 Hall was cut fifteen timea. the wounds being scattered over his entire body, legs and arms. Three of them, his surgeon said, had penetrated the cavity around the lungs and one had penetrated the abdominal cavity. Ei- thor of these wounds. the surgeon said might prove fatal. Halls con-, dition last night was a source of serf- ous apprehension. He will not be ro- moved unless he shows decided iTn- provement.
 Frank Presley Is not SO badly wounded though he suffered three ugly stab wounds in tho head. He Is still in bed at his home in Fact0ry Row. Roan Ward was badly beaten on the head. but his hurts are not dangerous D. E. Presley Is not seri- ously injured
 The original cause of the affray ia believed to have been an alleged in- terference by Ward in the domestic affairs of D. E. Presley. It is said Mrs. Psesiey contemplated suing for a divorce, ana that Ward acted as her advisor in the matter. Presley ie said to have resented the interference

FOR SELFISH zNps.
The Efforts Being Made by the Ameri.
can Medical Association.

The Political activity Of the Ameri.
;an Medical Association has become
SO pronounced as to cause comment
n political circles especially as the
he avowed purpose of the Doctors of
he Regular or Allopathic school, of
which the Association is chiefly COM
posed, is to secure the passage of such
laws as will not only prevent the
sale of so-called Patent" medicines.
but will restrict the practice of medi-
cine and healing to the schools" now
recognized. This in many states would
teopathy, and in nearly every state
would prevent the healers of the
Christian Science and mental science
belief from practicing those sciences
in which the faith of so many intelli-
gent people is so firmly rooted.
The American Medical Association
has a COMMITTEE on Legislation"
and the committee has correspond
ents in practically every township -
some $4,000 correspondents in all.
This committee at the last session of
the American Medical Association
held in June of this year expressed a
hope that a larger number of physi-
clans than heretofore will offer them
selves as candidates for Congress at
the first opportunity. In it's annual
report this Committee said: ITO meet
the growing demands of the move
ment, however, particularly if the
work of active participation in State
legislation is undertaken, a larger
clerical force must be employed"
This is almost the first time in the
history of the United States that any
organized class has frankly avowed
the purpose of capturing legislatures
and dominating legislation in their
own selfish interests.
The American Medical Association
has about $4,000 members of whom
$4,000 are fully constituted mem
bers" and the rest are members be-
cause of their utilization with state or
local societies. The Association owns
real estate in Chicago valued at SILL
1871 and its total assets are $751;
567.S9. Its liabilities, at the time of
the annual report which was made at
the June meeting. amounted to only
$21,906. The excess of assets over
liabilities is increasing at the rate of
about 100000 a year, and the purpose
of the organization is to dominate
the field of medicine, and by crushing
all competitions by securing the pas
sage of prohibitive legislation, compel
all of the people of the United States
to pay a doctors fee every time the
most simple remedy is needed.

SOUTH AMERICAN RAILWAYS.
They Run East and West Instead Of
North and South.

Although to the North American
opponents of that project there has
seemed a discouraging lack of interest
in the Pan-American railway scheme
on the part of South American railroad
men, there has really beer no cessa
ton of the activity in their more i'm
mediate spheres, says the American
Review of Reviews.
LET us build the lines the country
needs" they say, land don't ask us to
go out of our way to further a scheme
which, however practicable from an
engineering point of view, would moi
pay us dividends in this century, and
possibly not in the next.
eve concede that we might benefit
indirectly through the increased stabil
ity of government that would follow
the building of an intercontinentaI
line, but that benefit is too remote to in
terest US at a time when we have
ample opportunity for %eXpending all
Jul available funds in the construction
of lines that will yield returns from
the day they are opened"
So it happens that while there has
never been so much activity in railway
construction in South America as al
the present time, almost without excep
ton the new lines are following the
parallels rather than the meridians
running east and west rather than
north and south.

WHERE 1T is REALLY COLD.
A Country Where "a Lighted Candle Find
1t Very Hard to Keen Warm

A Country Where "a Lighted Candle Finds
1t Very Hard to Keep Warm.
From the Popular Science News.
Cold is merely a relative term. The
resident of semi-tropical countries
shiIers when the thermometer falls to
80 degrees, while the Laplander and
Esquimau think it is comfortable at
zero. For real cold and plenty of it,
n must go to the Polar regions. Think
of living where the mercury goes down
to 80 degrees below zero in the house,
in spite of the stove. Of course, in such
a case, fur garments are piled on until
a man looks like a great bundle of
skins. DR.. Moss, of the Polar expedi-
ton of 1856, among other odd
things, tells of the effect of cold on a
wax candle which he burned there.
The temperature was So degrees below
zero; and the doctor must have been
considerably discouraged when, upon
looking at his candle, he discovered
that the flame had all it could do to
keep warm. 1t was so cold that the
flame could not melt all the wax of the
candle, but was forced to cut it way
down, leaving a r of skeleton of the
candle standing. There was heat
enough, however. to melt oddly-shaped
holes in the thin walls of wax; and the
result was a beautiful lace-like cylin-
der of white, with a tongue of yellow
flame burning inside it, and sending
out into the darkness many streaks of
light.
