Bishop Returns.

..rhe Bishop is back were the words which Claibe Jones, the long lost news paper carrier thought to be dead greeted his quondam friends today.
 About two months again Claibe suddenly disappeared, having told no one where he was going or even that he was going. He was carrier for the Morning Times and left without handing In his route list, thereby causing considerable trouble to the management of that paper. Many articles were written in the papers or the state and various theories were ad- yanced as to whether the negro was dead or alive He was reported to have been seen in Mobile and Birmingham and other places but in reality no news ever reached Selma of his whereabouts and he was given up as dead. A liberal re- ward was offered by the Times Tor his return to that office and the Journal was authorized to offer reward of go for information as to his Whereapouts, dead or alive.
 Last night about 10 o'clock he walked into a saloon on Alabama street as if he had been here all the time. His face was covered with heavy beard, but he was the same Clabe, accommodating faithful Claibe, but sober and wanting q drink fearful bad. Today he is himself again and is about in his usual state of semi-sobriety All during the day he has been around F. J. Loughlin X Co $. where he formerly made his headquarters and has been holding a reception, everybody being glad to see him.
 Questioned as to why he went away, the negro said: "I took notion that wanted to see my folks. l had been working on the newspaper for twenty years, and wanted to see my old home, so one Monday morning l Int the 1ahaDa road and walked and walked until found a wagon going my way. l made my way through Lexington and across chllattchie creek and found my people in Wilcox. be- low Gees berfd. l visited my mother grave and my folks didn't want me to come away There was no whisky to be had in that country and got tired, 50 came on back.
 II read in the Weekly Age-H Herald about a month or so ago that everybody thought 1 was dead and l thought l would come home. but my folks wanted me to stay, and I just kept saying. l must have been sorter crazy when l left, for l don know why I decided to go. didn't tell anybody, because whenever leaves town I keep my business to myself.

day is exhibited a perspective plan of the proposed Selma Military institute, for which Selma has or will raise in the neighborhood of $40 0OO. The view shows very handsome building and has at tracted no little attention.
 It is three stories high, measuring D feet from ground to pinacle, and will front 110 feet on Broad street, running back 145 feet on First avenue. The in- stitute will acquire about five acres of land. and 1t is proposed to place the building in the center so that wings may be added when necessary and leaving room for a campus and athletic field on the sides and in the rear. It will be built of smooth concreat blocks and will present very attractive appearance when finished. The architect is R. H. Hunt of Huntsville.
 There are two buildings, practically twins, in the front and rear, joined by a two-story building in the center. The center building is to be used on the ground floor as a dining hall and on the second floor as a study hall and chapel, which can be thrown together. giving q room with a seating capacity of 4o0.
 On the ground floor in front will be the reception room and library on one side of the hall, while on the other will be the principals office and sleeping apartments. On the second floor of the front building will be four large class rooms, 20x30 feet, and on the third floor and in various parts of the practically three buildings will be the dormitory rooms, comprising forty-eight rooms i2x 10. and suitable for accommodating lCo boarders. Each dorlnitory room has a closet. While there are three buildings in appearance all are practically under one roof. that is, they are all joined.
 The plans as outlined above have been accepted conditioned upon the fact that the building can be erected for the price agreed upon. Advertisements for bids will soon be made and it is expected that within about thirty days work will be- gin on the Selma Military institute.
