Judge cartheI Discusses Work.

Judge Joseph Carthel, the well-known Sunday school worker who has given up his work in Alabama for the larger field in Tennessee, spent yesterday in Birming- ham. He will change his position on the first of next month.
 "rhe State Sunday School association, said MT. Carthel, has been peculiarly blessed in the selection of Secretary Sims to succeed me. MT. Sims has been my assistant for some time and is well fit ted for the work. He will carry it on suc- cessfully and keep up the organization which has been so safely started.
 While MT. Sims assistant has not yet been selected, no doubt he and Miss Kennedy, assisted by the Sunday School workers of the state, will be able to do wonders in Alabama during the coming years''

LIGHTHEART

LIGHTHEART. Lightheart laughed along the highway, Blithely climbing OCT the hill; Saw rose in every byway- Naught of earth could do him i'll. Lightheart sprang up with the morning, Hope-endowed, serene and bright; Pain, deiection, trouble scorning, And slept well at fall of night. Can you name a fairer journey, Formed of willing toll and play: Battles fought in lifes swift tourney Bravely till the close of day? Taking what the fates might send him, With an uncomplaining air, Fortune hastened to befriend him Lightheart, bold and debonair!

This table is valuable, too, because it shows at a glance the relative import ance of the several ore districts. While the south furnishes 121a per cent of the total ore supply, yet it is vastly outranked by the Lake Superior dis trict. from which comes eight-tenths Of the ore consumed in the countrys blast furnaces. At present there are no in- dications that these percentages will be speedily changed. The south is poor but a very good and well en- trenched second. It really has no rival in second place.
 Of the southern product Alabama furnished last year 4,039,453 tons, or just about two-thirds of the total out put in this part of the country. Vir- ginia. Tennessee and North Carolina reported decreases in 1907, while Ala bama Texas and Georgia reported in- creased amounts of ore produced. The gain in the entire south last year was 1.6 per cent, as against gain Of 9.o per cent in the Lake Superior district.
 The red hematite ores of Lake Su- perior cost something over $3 ton, while in Kentucky they are produced at a cost of not much exceeding $1 a ton

be better for the legislature to adjourn and be done with 1t.
 While I do not know just what action the governor would take in that event. think 1t would be a serious mistake for him to call the present general assembly together again. The new general assem- ply will be elected on October ', and if the present body cannot agree, the thing to do, it seems to me, is to wait for the new one and let 1t have a hand in de- termining what should be done as to the convicts."
 While 1t is believed some definite agree- ment will be reached by the present leg islature. the suggestion of the possibility of calling the new one into extra session is not so remote as might be considered first thought.
 If the house majority that passed the , Holder bill sticks to it's colors, and the senate refuses to concur in anything ap- preaching that measure, or the governor refuses to sign it even if enacted by the senate, it would practically mean failure of convict legislation at the present extra session.
 MT. Ashley is not alone in the belief that the extra session will be able to. determine definitely by the end of this week whether or not it can agree on a4 convict bill. Many of the leading mem- bers of both houses concur in the view that the session ought to come to an end at that time, for 1t will have afforded abundant opportunity for the enactment of legislation determination of the 1m- possibility of agreement.
 Many interesting possibilities would arise in the event of the summoning Of the new generalt assembly, particularly in view of the fact that 1t is known to stand overwhelmingly on the conservative side and in opposition to the reform movement of two years ago It is to Gov Smiths interest, therefore, to have the convict question settled by the present body, and he would probably prefer to let 1t take that course even though he had to make some concessions, rather than call the new body into extraordinary session.
 There has been some suggestion too, that in the event of the calling of the new general assembly, it would necess tate the inauguration of the newly elect ed governor, because of the provision in the law that the new governor shall be inaugurated at the first session of the general assembly following his election.
 However this aspect of the matter is not likely to be taken seriously, since the state constitution provides for two-year term for governor and other state house officers, and the provision with regard to inauguration would undoubtedly be con- strued to mean at the first regular ses- sion of the general assembly following such election.
 Both the impeachment and the abolition of the prison commission are considered now to be out of the question: and the most the enemies of the prison board are hoping for is to terminate the prison com- mission when the terms of office of it's present members expire. It Is extremely doubtful if even this will be accomplish
