Great Progress This Year
PATRONAGE is INCREASING
The Total Number of Books and the
Number of Borrowers Shows
Large Increase During the
Year Just Closed

The Board of Directors of the Gilbert
M. Simmons Library has filed with
the City Clerk the annual report of
Mrs. Clara P. Barnes, the Librarian,
and this shows that the library has
made long strides during the last
year. The year in fact has been the
most successful IN the history of the
institution. The summary of the re-
port of the Librarian follows:
The year has been a very busy and
prosperous one, as the statistics given
below, show. The largest gain has
been in the reference department.,
which has increased much more than
any other line of work and is one of
its most important branches. A find
ing list of books for Roman catholic
readers and chi1dren's "Story Hour"
held for thirteep weeks Saturdays
during the winter, with an attendance
of 943 children, are among the new
undertakings accomplished during the
year.
A book truck for the stack room and
a typewriter for the office, have added

otENHAt1 h8 h1G NhAtSHs
 Columbia, S. C., Jan. 24.--Booker T. Washington. president of the Tus- kegee Institute, today addressed the first negro conference ever held in South Carolina.
 After praisins the work of Rev. Richard Carroll, the moving spirit of the conference, he said:
 We of both races are to live hero in the South$side by side for all time, no matter what theories may be ad- yanced and emphasized. This is the fact which we must face. It is the extreme of folly. and almost of crime, for any individua. or group of indi- viduals to pursue a course which will encourage racial strife when two peo- ples are to remain together for all time.
 Tt Is tremendously important that the negro be happy. that peace exist between the races, because there can be no satisfactory labor when tho white man and the black man are at dagger's points. The more the labor CT Is satisfied the better service will he render.
 T referred to the subject of mak- ing labor reliable. One way to do it is to teach the negro laborer the dig- nity of labor.
 Right here in Columbia, there school for the training of domestic servants. Such a school should be In every large city in the South. We could furnish the teachers for these institutions.
 "It is mighty important that this woman who prepares and serves the food which Is to make blood and bones and flesh and brain for the white people be just as intelligent. skilled and conscientious as possible"

DEATH OF LovABLE WOMAN.

 Court is Dead

NOuEt AS Dea0s
 Talladega, Jan. 24.-(Special )-Tal- ladega is sorrowing today over the death of Mrs. Miller. wife of Judge C.. K. Miller, which occurred yesterday morning. The funeral services were held at the First Presbyterian Church this morning at 10 o'clock, and were conducted by the pastor, Rev. F. B. Webb.

 Of her immediate family, Mrs. Miller is survived by her husband, one son, H. K. Miller of Monticello, Fla, four daughters, Mrs. Green, wife of Judge s. E. Green of Birmingham, Mrs Jessie Waddey, Mrs. J. c. Burt and Mrs w. c. ,McMillan of this city.

FOR ALABAMA RIVER
COLONEL WILEY SUCCESSFUL sE-
 CURING MONEY.
siII Carries ss1, 1000 For Conecnh and
 $2OO,O00 For Alabama--Mr. Hundley Appears Fine and Fit,

Washington, Jan. 24-(SpeciaI. J. The river and harbor bill has been re- ported to the house and in addition to what has been previously wired to The Advertiser, 1t can be stated by way of further explanation that the Alabama | river gets a $20o.000 appropriation, which with the s59.o00 unexpended of previous appropriation will aggregate s259,000 to be used there on within the next two years.
 Conecuh river in the Second Con- gressional District secures an approp- riation of $s1.o0o. Colonel Wiley ob- tained by resolution of previous Con- gress the necessary preliminary sur veys and estimates as a basis for gov Iernmental aid for both of these streams He Is unouest.onabiy entitled to great credit for the untiring zeal and energy he has displayed and for the unfiag- gfng labors he has performed In this behalf. One outside of Congress can form no just conception of the d!fffcul- ties a Congressman encounters as general thing in the way of securing appropriations for the improvement of rivers and harbors. Of course Colonel Bankhead, the Alabama member of the committed, cheerfully rendered val | uable aid and but for the engineering reports to the effect that $50.000 an- | nually was all that could reasonably. be expected in deepening the leved of the Alabama river and removing ob- structions therein. the full amount of $500.000 called for by Congressman Wileys bill would without doubt have been allowed.
 The volume of business on Conecuh river as far North as River Falls in Covington County. will be vastly in- creased and commerce much facilita- ted by removing the logs and cleaning out the channel To have been suc- | cessful in getting $3l,000 for that pur- 1 pose, in the face of fierce opposition, makes the able and genial representa- tive from the metropolitan district of Alabama, serenely happy.
 It may be put down as a self evil dent proposition that he Is ever wide awake when the interests of his con stituents are concerned. Mir. Hundley of Huntsville, nominated l to the United States attorney for the Northern District of Alabama, is still here. The case is extremely douftful, but he is dressing finely and nearly every evening appears in the lobby of his notel with white spats on his shoes which shows he has not given up hope.
 Mir. Hundley's picture appeared this week in the local organ of the central labor union.
