 moblious Ma
 chine."

Columbus, Ga, August 19-(Special.) J. Three-quarters of a century old, Uncle John Mccarthy came to Columbus from Marion county, Georgia, today, and had the time of his life. His object in com ing was to run a foot race with some swift Columbus youths of the local track and he was much disappointed when his challenge was not accepted. He has run a mile in four minutes, 20 seconds, and says that although he is in the 70's he can still make 1t in at least five minutes
 Mccarthy, who is a typical Irishman, saw street car today for the first time in his life, and had the first shave he has enjoyed in ten years. He saw an- other Irishman today for the first time in 2S years. The Irishmen of the city made much of him and when Mccarthy returned to his home in Marion county, IA miles from Buena Vista, Ga., he was laden with presents.
 The old man had a ride in an automo- bile today. but confesses prejudice against these automobilious machines" McCar- thy cultivates a small farm, pulling a blow himself, the blow being guided by his T-year-old wife, who is partially par alyzed.

BAD NEGRO CAPTURED.
Train Crew Get Negro Who May Be
 Wanted for Murder.

Greenville, August 19.-(SpeeiaL)- Yesterday the sheriff was notified by a train crew on the Louisville and Nashville that a negro with a gun was giving them trouble and that he would neither part with his pistol nor get off the train He got off here and after a long chase Sheriff Watson and Deputy Murphy caught him about 12 miles from here. They wanted him on the charge of having pistol not allowed by law, but he asked them the first thing if that man was dead. Subse- quent inquiry revealed that his name was Clarence Christian and that on Monday he shot and killed another ne- gro named Jim Pollard at Atmore. It seems that he was supposed to have gone south, but got on the train at McDavid, Fla, and it was there that the trouble started with the train crew. He is held here awaiting re- moval to be tried for his crime.

NEW COUNTIES MEETING
By J, F, LEE.

Bessemer August 9.-CSpecial)-Ye ester day the whole city was absorbed in the anti-storage ordinance, which was dis pensed with at the sitting of the city council last evening. Ordinarily an ordi. nance becomes history after having beeR passed by the council, but in this par ticular case, it looks as though it will al least not become ancient history until after the general election September 21, for the measure has stirred up an ex- citement in political circles like unto the precipitation of a bomb into a crowded street.
 Up to the present time political gossip has been tame, and there has not been much doing by either side, but as it is just a month until the election, upon ths revival of a prohibition measure that once before stirred the city up to a very high pitch of excitement, groups of men could be seen standing about on the streets all day today, and when ap- preached the topic of their conversation would be on "the ordinance" and the effect it would have politically"

NAME HALLS SUCCESSOR
State Board of Pension Examiners Use Vigorous Knife In Pruning Down List of Appicants-Add-
 tions Large.

Montgomery, August 19.-(Special.)- For the first time in more than four weeks Governor Conner will be in his office tomorrow at noon to attend I special meeting of the board of con- trol of the Second District Agricultural school, located at Evernreen. The meeting is called to fill the vacancy caused by the recent resignation of w. ". Hali, president of the college. The position Is being eagerly sought and it Is said that more than a dozen ap- plications are on file.
 It Is not improbable that the gov ernor will have time to make public some very interesting documents that were several days ago filed with him by the state examiners of public &C., counts.
 Among these is said to be an ex- animation of military accounts of the state which have not undergone such scrutiny in many years. The governor will likely return to Birmingham to- morrow night as he is said to be un- willing to leave the strike situation in it's present shape.

Religious Matters.

Although the contest of the Reds and Blues of the First Baptist church Is now nothing but pleasant memory, especially to the Blues, who won, it is to be re- vived considerably by the long promised entertainment being pulled off in the city park on September 8.
 It was agreed that the losers pay for the entertainment but when the numbers who participated in the contest ran into the thousands it was afterward resolved that the entire city be asked to contribute toward the affair, and that failing, the churches throughout the state be ap- pealed to. The latter however. was not necessary. The, lines so tightly drawn during the contest have been eliminated, and now there are no Reds and no Blues but lot of young folks who have joined pocketbooks and are going to have a good time on the date stated. The ladies of the different churches have agreed to bake cakes, and there are to be other features of entertainment which will doubtless attract big crowd. A band will dispense music and some speeches are to be made.

Arrested Delivering Whisky.

Officer Clements arrested John Taylor, a negro employed by w. S. Eidge, this afternoon while delivering three cases of whisky and two cases of gin. The goods were brought from the Frisco depot, and is said to have been an interstate ship ment consigned to W. s. Eidge and was being conveyed to the consignee's place of business by his own wagon. The ar rest caused considerable comment, in that it follows so closely the anti-storage or dinance that was passed last night One of the cases was opened and a pint of whisky kept by the officer to use as evil dence, and the negro made bond for his appearance.

Columbus, Ga., August 19.-(Special.)- The Georgia and Alabama Industrial 1n- dex will say tomorrow in it's regular weekly issue:
 "A week of steady progress in tha states of Georgia and Alabama is record ed and while 1t was devoid of spectacular features yet it was characterized by the letting of substantial contracts, by the announcement of still further municipal improvements in various progressive cities and by many incidents which illus trate to the thoughtful mind the strength and abiding character of the industrial development that is now on in full swing in this favored section of the country. Prominent among the contracts awaroeo were those for building at Auburn.

The grand jury will convene in this city on the first Monday in September and Col. William T. Godfrey, the solicitor, is expected to be on hand again after a pro- tracted absence on account of sickness.
