The corn shocks stand upon the hills
Like armies tenting in the fields
The rustling harvest, full and ripe.
That rivals even Ceres yields.
The haze OF Autumn blends with red
That clings upon the trailing grape:
The oak has put its color on
And wears its glory as a cape.
The grasses nod along the road
And blow in the lusty gale,
While everywhere the seal of fall
Is spreading fancies through the vale.
The crow aloft in noisy flight
Is sailing like a ship at sea-
A bold marauder OF the sky
With blatant, raucous minstrelsy.
The crop Is in and plenty smiles
Upon a husbandman- made glad
The one who planted, tilled and reaped
Has won the prizes Nature had.
All vari-hued the Autumn comes
To charm us with her glowing ways
And lead US gently through the sere
To chill and cold and winter days!

VICTORY OF CANDIDATE
 MAY BE TERMINATED


 More thorns were yesterday added to the crown of Justice of the Peace worn by P. Y. Albright, of Baldwin County. when the Supreme Court of Alabama wiped away his habeas corpus victory which he secured from the Judge of the Thirteenth Judicial Cir cult.
 Probably no man in Alabama has had the vicissitudes of ofice such as have beset Mir. Albright of Precinct 8, Baldwin County. He was appointed Justice of the Peace in this precinct about last April. He held the job from April 25 to August 1 last year. Suddenly some one discovered that the incumbent was a native Of Pennsylva- mia. That some one dug further and found that the immigrant to Baldwin also had not been in the big old coun- ty the necessary two years to make him a qualified voter.
 Then there was thunder down about Precinct 8. Justice Albright. before he hardly knew what was the matter, was thrown into durance vile. He was un- der indictment for illegally holding his of1ce. What unusual emoluments or perquisitcs attached to the office that excited so much interest. Is not known. Yet under the indictment Justice AL

 TRIALS.
Temporary Victory of Mobile County's Probate Judge Annulied by Optn- ton of Tribunal Rendered on
 Appeal Yesterday.

The temporary victory which Hon. Price Williams, IT,, Judge of the Pro- bate Court of Mobile County. and oth- CT officers of that County. gained in the Montgomery City Court In the matter of fees claimed for the sale of lands for taxes. was cast to the winds yesterday by decision of the Su- preme Court of Alabama.
 Some time ago a writ of mandamus was issued by the Montgomery City Court directed at Hon. W. W. Bran don. State Auditor. to compel him to draw warrant for ss.s4s.74. in favor of the Judge of Probate of Mobile County claiming this as the balance due the County officers as their fees on account of the sale of lands for taxes. The State Auditor had refused to draw the warrant. He appealed from the judgment of the Montgomery City Court granting the writ.
 It appears that there swere certain lands which were sold and bought in by the State. which lands were located in Mobile County. The records show that the lands brought the State the sum of s5.000. According to the sec- tion of the law directing the disposi- tion of this money It Is divided be- tween satisfying the State and County taxes and settling with the county off, fcers for fees connected with the transaction. The officers of the county who are entitled to fees are the Pro- bate Judge. tke Tax Assessor. the Tax Collector and the Tax Commissioner.
 The State Auditor drew a warrant of s2.500 in favor of the Probate Judge for satisfying all purposes In Mobile County As the fees and costs were certified at $5.S43.74 originally. the Probate Judge made a demand for the difference. When the warrant for e3,- 500 was cashed there was lost in the fund for land sales only $2.500.
 Speaking of the section regulating such division of land sale proceeds. Justice N D. Denson. whose opinion had to do with the case. says:
 No authority is given by Section 4104 for a warrant to be drawn for the fees and costs due officers in ex- clusion or preference over county and school taxes. and 1t does not appear that such taxes had been paid. On the contrary. 1t appears that the original claim of the petitioner for fees and

 Germany. France and the other pow CTS support the coming of the fleet and Great Britain acquiesce to the proposal, but the final position of Russia is uncertain. There Is an im- precision here that Secretary Root and Baron Rosen, Russian Ambassador to the United States, are neither of them favorably disposed to the present plan of the statesmen of China to effect a coup de'etat in Manchuria; but China is convinced that the United States will not be able to retire from its position in the matter of the munich pality of Harbin and she therefore hopes for favorable consideration from Washington of her plan.
