The slaughter and the shipment of fish and game have been carried on almost to the point of ex- termination For the past several months a determined campaign has been carried on by the organization of which I am the head, with the result that sentiment in favor lof protecting fish and game has become more or less demand for the enactment of law.

LAUDERpALE COUNTY WOMAN CUT
 HER THROAT.
Second Attempt at Suicide Win Be Suceessful--She Is Lingering in
 Hospital at Hupts-

Huntsville, Jan. 'e.---(Special. )--With a desperation growing outrof her mania for suicides, Mrs. William Tucker, who shot herself at Hazel Green a few days ago. has cut her own throat and has been removed to the city hospital. where she is expected to die. The phy- sieian in charge of the case says the woman cannot live.
 Mrs. Tucker, 1t will be remembered, made sensational attempt at suicide by going out into a corn field with her baby, and shooting herself in the stom- ach. She was found weltering In blood a few hours later and at that time 1t was not believed she could live more than a day or two. However, she held her own in spite of her unwillingness to live Seizing the first opportunity she secured 8 case knife that accom- panied food given her in bed. and cut her own throat.
 The lf-Indicted wound is a terrible one, extending from ear to ear. Tho jugular vein Is not severed, the knife she used being too dull. but she can neither drink nor eat, and her death is expected at any hour. The unfor- tunate woman was sent to the city hos pItal last night. There is said to be considerable feeling at Hazel Green against the husband of the woman.

Negro Accused of Assault on BllRd
 Woman.

woman.
 Phenix City, Jan. 6.--(Speclal )--Charged with assault with intent to murder. the Vie- Jim being his own wife and tho eircum- stances particularly brutal. Jerome Robin son. a middle-aged negro of the Smith Sta ton community In this county, Is in jail in Phenix City.
 With fearful gash in her head, finger prints on her throat, and bruises about her face and side, the woman, Bethenie Robinson. who is totally blind, was found on the edge of the Chattahoochee river north of phenix City at an early hour in the morning, standing waist deep in the water and almost frozen White men who found her pulled the woman from the water, built a fire for her benefit and telephoned to the Phenix City police author ities.
 After spending the previous day In Phe- nix City Robinson, who drinking, started to their home in tho country with his blind wife, but instead of going out the road took the woman down towards the river It is charged that he is the person who made the brutal assault upon the un- protected woman there and left her for dead on the bank Of the river In carry Ing her toward the river he pulled her through a wire fence after quite strus- Rle.
 The woman was dealt a fearful blow in the head and lost consciousness Whether thrown into the water at its edge, or whether she afterward revived and her blind crawling about the bank fell into the stream, can only be coniecturcd. She will probably recover from her experience although shc was seriously injured.
 On Friday Robinson swore out warrant against another negro charging him with attempted criminal assault upon his wife.

FAVoRS EDUCATION
HON. T. l.. BULGER WOULD HELP
 PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
TaliapOosa County Representative Proc poses to IntrOduce Bills in Lemis- latnre to Increase Penni0ns
 of old Soldiers.

Hon. Thomas L. Bulger of TallapOoaa County. whose withdrawal from the race for Speaker of the House of the Coming Legislature. arrived in Mont gomery last night.
 Discussing the prospective work of the session. Colonel Buiger said that there were three great subjects to come up. among host of others. for adju- dication at this session of the solons-- railroads, schools and old soldiers.
 ''The Question of the proper regula- tion of the railroads.' said Mir. Bulger. will, of course. take up considerable attention. This is the issue upon which MT. Conner was elected Governor, and 1t Is common Knowledge the great majority of the Legislature stands squarely with him."
 Reverting to the subject of sehools, Mir Buiger expressed himself as being in favor of liberal treatment of the schools of the State.
 "To have an educated people" he said. we must educate the masses. While would not put any obstacle In the way of any of the schools. would be specially liberal with the free public schools. so that all the people might have the opportunity to acquire an education. The college and university courses will follow as matter of course.
 'I believe that the time has arrived when Alabama. with the great surplus in her treasury, should say 1t will pro- vide at least six months schooling for every white eh1d In the State. be- lleve we will be able to say that at this session of the Legislature.
 "The old soldiers who fought dur Ing the war between the States should be dealt with more liberally in our hour of prosperity. I have bill which | shall introduce at an early date. pro- viding that old soldiers of the first class, those entirely disabled. shall re- ceive $60 per year. those of the second class $50 the third class. $40 and the fourth class $50 each.
 My bill also removes the restric- tlons contained in the present pension bill which provides that no old soldier who has an income of more than s400, or one who Is capable of earning us much as $500 per anum. shall re- ceive a pension. I believe in pension- ing the old veterans.
 "The question of improving the roads of the State is another difficult prob lem. Some counties now have good roads, but others have not, and 1t is diffi- ficult to so draw @ bill as to provide for a uniform system. aplicable to all parts of the State.

CAPTAIN MAYBIN DEVELOPS NEW - SYSTEM 0F'cAMP PAIGNING FOR JOB

Captain Bill Maybin. the political Prosnosticator of the wiregrass. is running for assistant doorkeeper of the Senate and running strong, too. While Captain Maybin's talk abounds with "reminiscences and a11usions to Dale County, he has for number of years been a resident of Montgomery and Is concern in Montgomery. and he has one of the most unique systems of cam
 paigning that has come under the mo- tice of political observers. He is a good collector. which means he Is a persistent collector when the man who owes him does not pay promptly, He has been running for the Senate Jok for six months or more. and he has got a force together that can't be beat

Whenever Captain Maybtn' would pre- sent bill to Montgomery man he would say:
 T want you to remember that I'm candidate for assistant doorkeeper of the Senate. Ton must know some Sen. ator. Now you write to him and tell him to vote for me. You see thst job will keep me at the Capitol for cou pie of months. and I won't be around here with bill during all that time.'
 One of his friends said. But look here. have no friends in the Senate What good can I do your"
 "Oh. we'll" said Captain Msybin phil osophically, you know that old say ing we have In Dale County. Every cow needs tall in fly time.'"
 uIst the system seems to be win- ner. Captain Maybin looks to have an easy first claim on the jeb he wants.

The Big Mineral Display at the
 Jamestown Exposition.

Norfolk, Va, March 2.-When we bear in mind that the United States produces annually almost as much mineral wealth as all the rest of the world put together, we can readily understand why the department of mines and metallurgy is considered among the first branches of the Jamestown exposition to be held on the shores of Hampton Roads near Norfolk, Va. April 18th to November 30th, inclusive.
 The board of governors readily recognized the pertinency of making a comprehensive exhibit of the min eral treasures of the United States one of the chief features of the ex- position. To them it has seemed self evident that the initial development and continued prosperity of the country depend upon its supply of mineral wealth more than upon that of any other, and hence the stability, not only of the country's past de- velopment. but of it's future expan- sion, must rest upon foundation of mineral. supplies.
 The supplies of coal found in the States are certainly greater than those of any other country, with the possible exception of China, and when we consider that the United States produces more iron than any other country in the world, and that two-thirds of the worlds copper or- iginates in this country, the enorm- ous importance of the mineral in- dustry becomes at once apparent.
 The special field selected for ex- ploitation at the Jamestown exposi- tion is a new commercial grouping, comprising the water front states from Maine to Texas. In it there is no resources which can readily be exchanged from one locality to an- other by the use of railroads and coastwise trafic. These mineral re- sources are not only great in value, but extremely comprehensive. In fact the minerals of the Atlantic coast are sufficient in quality and quantity to supply almost. if not all. the region concerned. from gold to petroleum.
 The general display will include exhibits of every known specimen of minerals. ores. mining machinery. etc. showing every phase in the pro tection. production and marketing of these products
 Structural materials and building supplies that are derived and manu- factured from mineral ores will be especially emphasized. while an ef- fort is being made to have the build- ing and ornamental stones from the Atlantic coast states thoroughly rep- resented These include granite sandstone. marble. limestone slate and such decorative stones as serpen- tine. obieuIzr diOrite and leopardite all of which will be grouped together in one section of the building
