NO SERIOUS RESULTS
NONE BADLY HURT IN PLATFORM
 ACCIDENT.
Enc Few SufferfnG Physicai Intury Are Healed With Plaster and Letion---Those Shocked
 Recover Composure.

People laughed hysterically Friday night over the fall of the platform on which those sat who were unveiling the monument of General Robert E, Lee. on Capitol Heights. when the stag ing collapsed: yesterday they were stiii smiling.
 Nobody had been badly hurt and the few who had been injured badly enough with fear or splinters to ride home splendidly. palely and in car riages were reported to be so far re- covered as that even they could enjoy the amusement.
 when the first rays of dawn made the statue blink yesterday morning t looked down to see an area of debris that in small measure suggested the Albertville disaster, but otherwise everything was serene on the Capi- toline Hills. The platform was re- moved and given to some poor person who will build chicken-coops. if he has no chickens or makes fires If he has nothing to cook upon them.
 In the meantime solicitous inquiries have been made frequently by friends of those reported to have suffered. None of them was severely injured: most of them were merely startled from their well-bred composure by a that seemed peculiarly out of place in the midst of so much patriotic fervor.

 Mir. Hiilhouse was born in Ayrshire. Scotland. in iS45. and landed in Penn sylvania thirty-eight years ago and commenced digging coal in the anthra- cite region.

THE HUMAN STOMACH
Many and Grievous Abuses to
 Which it is Subjected.

A persons attitude towards the world towards life. towards humanity, Is largely determined by the condition of lis stomach.
 Many and grievous are the abuses to which the average person subjects his stomach. The wonder is not shat so many. but that so few stomachs, smart ing under provoeation. do not organize strike.
 But when the stomach, long abused does turn, there is something doiuR in paying penalties and squaring ac- counts. Life is made miserable by sick headaches, nervousness, distress after eating, sleeplessness, coated tongue spots before the eyes. general de- bility and the many other symptoms of indigestion.
 Something more Is needed than the ordinary digestive tablets which have been used so recklessly in the past. The weakened muscles of the stomach need strengthening. and the whole dt- gesttve system must be toned up and stimulated before the stomach trouble can be cured.
 Nothing else will so quickly do this as Mi-o-na stomach tablets. The ge- cret of it's success lies in the fact that Mi.o-na is prepared especially TO strengthen the digestive organs. It's. usa for a few days puts the whole svs- tenn in such shape that it can care for all inc food that is eaten without pain or distress
 10, e. Fowler sells Mi-o-na in 5O-cent boxes under a guarantee to refund ths money unless 1t gives perfect aaTis faction and does all that is claimed for

MR. HUNT, AS A BOY,
 WAS ONE OF N0SBY'S MEN

R. E. Hunt, who has just returned from the Confederate Veterans Re- union at Birmingham, was one of the youngest soldiers to join the army.
 He enlisted at the age of 1l at up- perville, Va, in April. 1881.
 He fought bravely and patriotically under the gallant Col. John Mosby, and received the highest praise for his con- duct through many fierce engagements.
 He was captured in 1882 at Johnson's Island where he was a prisoner for about eight weeks and was exchanged at City Point. Va. He rejoined the command in Faurquier County, Va, and then took an active part in dif- ferent engagements until the close of the war. He received parole on May 2s, 1885 at White Plains. Va.
 At q dinner given the old soldiers by Col. Mosby, the famous Confederate cavalryman, at Yung's Restaurant in this city, among several old Confederate soldiers Mir Hunt was the only one present, who was in Col. Mosby's com inand.
 MT. Hunt is now popular hotel keeper of Montgomery and but for his extreme modesty could reveal stories of most daring exploit during the war, to say nothing of many numerous in- cidents that happened to him.

TO PRoLoNG LIFE.
Prevention of Disease Much
 More Important Than Cure.

An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure" Is nowhere more positively true than in medicine.
 The best way to cure stomach trou- bles is to treat them before they get fastened upon the system.
 Half-a-dozen doses of MI-c-na stom- ach tablets taken at the first warning Of coated tongue. flatulence, heart burn. headache. distress after eating, and other symptoms of Indigestion, will prevent chronic case of stomach sui. fertng that may last for years.
 These little tablets are of inestim- ablc value in all weakened conditions of the stomach and bowels. They have a specific action upon the muscular walls of the stoinacn and intcstines, giving them strength and tone and pro- noting the secretion of gastric juices so that whatever food is taken is readily digested by the stomach itself and the refuse expelled in natural way.
 Mi-o-na is positive cure. not tenn porary relief like tIc ordinary diges- tives that were formerly sc largely used.
 E. G. Fowler has seen So many in- stances of the power of Mi-o ma to cI re stomach diseases. even of the worst and most chronic type. that he stands ready to sell the remedy under a guar ante to refund the money in case it does not cure. Buy a 50-cent nox fin this way. knowing that if the remedy helps you, as 1t undoubtedly will, you get rid of indigestion in a pleasant way at small expense, while If by chance the medicine should not be adapted to your case and does not do what is claimed for 1t, your money is returned, and your test of Mi-o-ns's virtues has cost you nothing.

 WerEs

 The agents had their first unhar- messed Inning before the State Text BOOK Commission yesterday. It was me peGinning of the grind of that body. Tnis IS said, of course, with due re- spect to the representatives of the pub. hsning houses who are men of ability. put there is bound to be a bit of te- diousness In listening daily for five straight hours to the talk of the best tsikers Yet that Is the program and ene Opportunities of the agents are to cease only at their own suggestion.
 The work of the first day yesterday anorded Q sort of index to the time 70 be occupied by the Commission in nearing ah agents on all subjects. The sentiment Of the Commission seems to 20 that their labors should end within two weeks. But the progress made yesterday would not indicate a much shorter period as the subject of spell ing was only partly taken up. The agents are heard on this subject as well as others in the alphabetical or- der of the publishing houses.
 4 The Commission heard scarcely half the bidders to supply spoilers to the public schools of Alabama. They heard down to the Us and from there through the alphabet they expect to hear Mon- day. The other branches of study are Co be considered in the order in which they appear in the law creating and regulating the Commission.
 The agents will probably remain in Montgomery during the entire hearing of the Commission, or the majority of them No adoptions will be announced until all subjects and bidders have been considered. The contracts will be awarded in lump at the same time. As many of the bidders for one branch are bidders also for other branches It can be seen that the agents have good reason to remain on the ground. aside from the fact that the announcement of the successful bidders will not be made until at the end of the hearing.

 Four Days of the Week.

Beginning next Tuesday and proba- ply lasting for four consecutive days, pr. W. H. Sanders, State Health Om- cer. and his assistants, will conduct a regular examination of applicants for medical licenses. The examinations are to be held in the Hall of the House of Representatives.
 Judeinr from the numerous inuui- ries that have come to the Health De- partment recently, there may pc up- wards of an hundred Meds. to take the examinations. It will be probably the largest crop of licensed physicians when they wind up their answers that have ever issued from the Capitol
 The State Health Board will meet be to arrange for the examinations. The Department Is required to hold two general examinations annually. This is the second for the year 1908.
 Applicants before the Alabama Board who have stood the examination In other States declare that the former occu- pies high place in the profession quentiy the examinations are compar- atively difficult.
 An illustration of the high eflicIeney of the Alabama Board was developed some time ago. An applicant of a given name appeared at the Capitol here for examination. He had suc- cessfully passed the requirements of two other Southern States. He had plenty of licenses for himself to prac- tice. but came to Montgomery to un- dertake the examination of this State under the name of a student who was at the time in Tulane University. The object was to secure the license in the name of the other student. but he ran up against harder proposition than he had bargained for. He, therefore, threw up the sponge and went away with out the object of his coming.
 The fee for examination Is Sf0.

STORM AT LOTHIAN.
Heavy Fall of Rain Does Damage to
 Streets.

Streets.
 Dothan, June i3--(Special)- Quite a severe wind and rain storm struck Dothan yesterday afternoon about 3:S0 o'clock accompanied by some display of electricity.
 The rain was almost equivalent to a cloudburst and was of sufficient dura- tion that the sewers of the principal streets were not capable of taking away the refuse and several of the down town stores were flooded. The rain was very much needed, and was appreciated even though 1t did leave some little damage in Its wake
 The street overseer will have a job for the next three weeks repairing the damage to streets and sidewalks and cleaning out surface sewerage. but the melon crop will be benefited and the street sprinkler will be given a rest.
