 Ninth District--c. B. Glenn. or Bir- mfn6hnm.
 To this list are to be added the names of the Governor and the State Superintendent of Education. who are ex-ofiicio members of the Commission
 While the Text Book Commission act provides for a meeting of the mem bers of the Commission Immediately after appointment. for tho purpose of organizing, this mandate of tho law Is not going to be construed literally. but the time for such an assembling is to he set within reasonable period after the appointments. To meet immediate " would be impossible as the appoin- tees have not been officially noti. ned as yet of their appointments.
 As Governor Conner. who is the Chair man of the Commission. Is out of the city and is engaged in an itinerary that will consume all of next week. it Is rumored that a reasonable time for the initial meeting of the new members will be about ten days hence.
 It is mandatory on the Commission to begin advertisements for bids for supplying the school books for the pub lic schools of Alabama for the five next years succeeding September 1. 1908. when the present contracts expire. These advertisements must be ordered with In thirty days after organization of the Commission.
 Looking over the list of appointess to the Commission, 1t is noticed that the Governor has carried out radically different plan in the selection of the personnel from that employed in pre- viously choosing this board. The chief difference lies in the exclusion from the list of college presidents or members of college faculties, except that there are named a president of the Seventh Dis trict Agricultural School. Professor !. B. Hobdy, and Professor c. W. Brock, of the Livingston Normal School.
 This policy of the Governor Is car rying out the letter of the law, which, as The Advertiser stated yesterday. makes the qualification that the new members shall be educators of Alabama, men engaged in Fpublic school work in the State" In following this course, the Governor intended to carry out the purposes of the act and-not to snub any college president who Is now g member of the board. It was said at the Capitol yesterday that none of the present members of the old board OK. pected to be re-appointed in view of the terms of the act creating the new body.
 The duties of the Text Book Commits sion are, briefly, to approve text books for use in the public schools of Ala bama for a period of five years, the books pertaining to the established branches Of study in the common schools. This approval comes after they have received bids from the pub fishers. There are strict and up-to-date rules which protect the State in award ing the contracts for supplying these books The prices are to be uniform for all parts of the State and are to be no higher than the prices in existence in any State in the Union supplied by such publishers. Specimens of the books approved are to be kept in the
The Montgomery advertiser., 1908-02-27

office of the Secretary of State and with the County Superintendents of Ed ucation. in order that the standard Of print, binding. etc, of the books may be kept up to contract requirements. X One of the most interesting decisions of the new Commission that the public earnestly awaits Is that of the mode of distributing the books. They are to de- termine whether they are to continue the present system of central deposit ories with sub-depositorfes or to sub stftute therefor a more efficient means of getting the books surely and promptly to every district in the State. Material changes in this respect are looked for.
 Many compliments passed the way of the Governor yesterday when the announcement of the Commission ap- pointees came. It is regarded as a strong body.
 Prof. s. s Murphy. of the First Con- gressional District. Is Superintendent of the City Schools of Mobile, and an educator of recognized ability. He is a graduate of the University of Ala bama and an active worker in behalf of education ,f several years standing.
 Prof. J. P. Selman, of the Second District, has been and is now Superin- tendent of the City Schools of Troy,
  vices in the upbuilding of educational interests in that section of the State.
 Representing the Third District is Prof. J. V. Brown, comparatively young man, who has won distinction among his fellow educators of this State and the South, and was recently elected to the position of Superintend- ent of the City Schools of Dothan. He Is graduate of the Alabama Polytech- nic Institute of the class of 1893, and has taught in the public schools of Brewton and Faunsdale and was at one time head of the District Agricultural School at Abbeville.
 Of the Fourth District D. M. Gallo way conducts a private school of high standing in Selma and is County Super Intendent of Education of Dallas Coun- ty. His, name is known to nearly all young men who have received their preparations for life in and around Dal- las County and Selma.
 Prof. J. P. Nefk. who is from the Fifth District, enjoys an enviable repu- tation for educational activity in the eastern porton of the State, being at present Superintendent of the City Schools of Lafayette.
 Prof. G. W. Brock, of the Sixth Dis trict, is a member of the faculty of the Livingston Normal School, and has had a versatile experience combining rural with city work. He was gradu- ated from the Alabama Normal School at Florence and was very popular in opelika where he was once Superin- tendent of the City Schools.
 President J. B. Hobdy, of the Sev- enth District Agricultural School, po- sition he has held since 1901. Is an ex- perienced teacher.
 Representing the Eighth District is Prof. H. T. Lille. who is principal of the Falkville School. He holds a life cer- tificate and Is an experiences teacher who has been in Alabama educational work for many years.
 A member of the Commission consid- cred very strong for the task to which he will be committed is Prof. c. B. Glenn principal of the Paul Hayne School of Birmingham. He is grad uate of the Alabama Polytechnic Insti- tute and also took the degree of B. A. at Harvard University. He was for

 While the, will was filed for probate yesterday morning, the berehciartes have not as yet been formally notified of the terms of the will. Mrs. T. W. Hannon, president, of the society which has charge of the Wonan's Home, said last night that while there has been gossip for some time past that MT. Davidson had wilIed the Home some property, she had not been ofacially mo- tifed of the fact, and would therefore not lgive out any plans which the Board may have for the splendid prop erty on Mobile Street.
 "Our Board will meet during the ear Iy part of next week. and by that time I suppose that we shall have received official notification of the. bequest. At that time also. if the oficial nottfica- ton Is made. plans for its use will be discussed. But until out next meeting. the Board has nothing to give out.
 While the general impression about the city was that MT. Davidson had left a great amount of property, the actual figures will not be known until the executors named in the will have had time to take a thorough inventory of the stocks. bonds and other secur- ities" as mentioned In the will.

Lee, ST., although a member of the firm, has quit and abandoned the partner ship business, and refuses to have any thing to do with the partnership which 1t is alleged he formed in go6d faith with Herring, and that the other part ner is insolvent.
 MT. Herring states that he Is will- ing to surrender all of the property of the firm, the stock in the warehouse amounting to about $4,0o0. and in ad- dition totall of his personal property to satisfy the creditors both Of tbe firm and his individual accounts.

CRY FIRE COOLEY
MAYOR TEAGUE ADVISES CITIZENS
 ABOUT ALARMS.
Points Out Useiessnena Of summoning Entire Departments to Extinguish Blaze that One Cempany

Mayor TeaRue yesterday voiced the
 sentiment of himself and officers of the fire and other departments of the city in regard to the calling of the fire de- partment ;n It's entirety to extinguish fires which might readily be laid to

 the york required has been unsuaul. The recent frequency of fire alarms
 is believed by some authorities to be
 in 8 great measure due to the lack of calm and cool consideration of its citi-
 zens when 1t is thought that the ser vices of the fire department are nec-
 essary. During the course of twelve months, there are a very large number of calls answered by this department. frequently in It's entisrty, which could well have been properly attended by single apparatus from the nearest station to the call. Doubtless. those who find 1t necessary to call upon the fire department at times when their chimneys are burning out. or some other small fire Is in. progress, never
 stop to consider the expense the city Is put to in answering such calls with its entire department, and the hardship worked upon the men and the horses and the wear upon appaTatus.
 The city of Montgomery now operates
 in different locations within it's limits,
 six Ire stations. These stations are
 connected with each other under one
 number, 700, and when an alarm IS
 transmitted over any phone in the city
 to that number, immediately every sta
 ton becomes aware of che location of
 the fire. But frequently persons, in
 sending in alarms state only that there
 is a fEe at such and such a place, and are gone before the man on watch at the station can inquire as to the nature and extent of the blaze. It Is, corse- auently, necessary that one or more stations answer the call, which, in a great many instances, is to burning chimney or other fire of like charac- ter Citizens are, therefore. requested by the authorities to exercise care in calling the department out, and if the following plan is strictly adhered 70. the results will be beneficial to the city of Montgomery: . should, after having been answered at that number, give the location of the fire. its nature and sts extent. IT It is a burning chimney, the depar artment will gladly sent out one chemical engine, from the nearest station to the locality of the fire, thus saving the wear and tear on the horses and apparatus or the entire department.
 "Ise calm when sending alarms and give the station man time to ask you few questions. It won't take long, and if will help matters considerably, is the advice given by officers to those who wish Ito help the city while saving their own property.

Forty Per Cent More Game
 In State Than One Year Ago

respected the law and the pot-hunters and game hogs have, been completely routed and driven out of their mur- derous and nefarious, ayocations.
 "Formerly hundreds of thousands of quails were annually shipped from Alabama; this drain on our game sup ply has been absolutely checked.
 '@rhe record discloses the fact that practically all who have violated the provisions of the game law have been promptly apprehended and vigorously prosecuted. It is most gratifying to re- alize the strong and wholesome senti- ment among the people that demands the strict enforcement of this statute. The land owners who can now elect who shall hunt on their lands are es- peciaIly active in compelling an ohserv- ance of the law.
 ''The value of game and bird pro- tection has become apparent to all who have studied economic questions, and the citizens of our State seem eager to check the wanton and reckless de- struction of the valuable assets of our fields and forests which went on unre- strainedly before the inauguration of, the present system.".

INVALID SAYS TRAINMEN
 SET HIM OUT IN WEATHER

Attorneys for D. P. Smith yesterday filed with the clerk of the city court a suit for damages of $1S95.OO against the Louisville and Nashville railroad for negligence.
 In. the complaint filed in the bill,- it is stated that Smith is an invalid and confined to an invalid's chair. That he bought ticket on the rail- road from Montgomery to Pollard. and that on reaching Pollard the employees of the road took him off the train and set his chair between the railroad tracks exposing him to the weather and passing trains E
 As a result of the exposure the com nlainant ayers that shis case of sick ness was aggravated to such an extent that he was confined to his bed for some time, necessitating q physicion's extra visits and additional medicine. besides other inconveniences suffered by his exposure at the railroad sta- tion.
 Because of this the complainant brings suit.
