Not only are the candidates for
county Office getting busy, but the
contestants in the Courier's Popular
Lady Contest are making things
interesting.
Five of the young ladies have
made good showing since our last
report. Misses Carpenter and Stok-
er are running mighty close this
week. with Miss Carpenter in the
lead by small margin. Others are
not far behind.
Just to add little ginger and to
show those who are working hard
for second and third place that their
efforts shall not be in vain. the Cour-
Ter has decided to give three prizes
instead of one.
lst-The beautiful s4o0 Forbes
Piano.
2nd-Ladies' Solid Gold Watch,
standard movement, and first-clas
in every particular.
3rd-A handsome Imported Cut
Glass Water Set, consisting of seven
pieces.
While the Courier did not antici-
pate at first tn. giving Of more than
the S400 prize, we are adding the
last two gifts to show the young
ladies who hold End and 3rd places
that we appreciate their efforts.
Remember, there are only few
more weeks left in which to get
votes. When We announce the hour
of closing, the contest will close on
the hour and minute given. If you
want one of these handsome prizes,
ask your friends to assist you-go
into it Notwithstanding there
are three chances now instead OF
one. 1t will be time well spent
if you succeed in even getting the
third place.
Don't forget about next Saturday
being Bargain Day." Every dol
lar brought in does double duty on
that date. This will probably be
the only bargain day during the con-
test, and we advise you to make a
special effort for that occasion.
This week the vote stands:

OFFICERS RAID STILL
 AND CAPTURE SEVEN


 United States marshals in company with United States Deputy Collector, Captain John R. Ware on Tuesday afternoon made a raid in Crenshaw county and captured a still which has evaded the revenue officers for a lonh time past Former raids have been made. but on each occasion there has not been evidence of a character to warrant a conviction. Deputy Harshal Frank Taylor thinks that he now has enough evidence to secure a conviction.
 The exciting raid was made upoI. the Sexton home about ten miles from Luverne. Crenshaw county. The of- ficers went out 10 the Sexton home and just before reaching the place over heard a warning conversation to the Sexton home to the effect that the rev. enue officers were coming and that things had better be cleaned up. The officers then whipped up their horses and arrived at the house in time to see seven men running in almost every direction taking parts of the still away with them.
 The officers gave chase and without trouble captured seven men. two of whom are negroes. Eli Sexton, Franz Sexton. Marion Sexton. Cornelius Sex ton. Will stFinger. white men. Houston Hart and Doc Ellis, negroes.
 The officers then destroyed many gallons of beer and whiskey, a large copper still with a regular brick fur mace. and other machinery connected with a distillery.
 Yesterday morning they brought their prisoners before United States Commissioner John A. Fillmore for a hearing. But two of the cases were heard, those against Will Stringer and Doc Ellis. Upon the evidence the two were discharged from custody. The ofba'a vsyaTa aAn4 fa fhA Couufv TaiI in default of making a $500 bond each. They will be given a preliminary heal ing before Commissioner Fillmore on Monday when important witnesses who are at present out of the state will be present.
