 Theafrr

Huntsville. June 10--tSpecial) )-@The annual meeting of the Huntsville Bus mess Mems Club was held last night fin the Elks' Theatre and a report Of the years work was read by SecretarQ Carlisle. Several enthusiastic speeches were made in celebration of the coming of the new railroad.
 Tracy W. Pratt, Madison County Di- rector of the Nashville and Huntsville Railroad. stated that the road has been financed from Huntsville to Birming. ham and that the Birmingham exten- sion will be started Immediately after the line Is completed from Huntsville to Nashville.
 The yearly report of ths club showed that it has been active in great many things concerning the welfare of Huntsville. Several new enterprises have been Iovated here through it's ef- forts and many new settlers have been brought here.
 Milton Lanier moved that all of the officers and directors be reelected for another year by exclamation. This would have been done except for the fact that the constitution of the club requires elections to be held at regu- lar meetings and candidates for offices to be nominated month in advance. The members of the club appear to be very well satisfied with their officers and they will be reelected as soon as it can be done in tn authorized way.

 T formerly drank so much coffee during the day that my nervous sys- tenn was almost a wreck. My physi- clan told me to quit drinking it but had to have something to drink, so I tried Postum
 ITO my great surprise I saw quite a change in my nerves in about 10 days That was a year ago and now my nerves are steady and I don't have those bilious sick headaches which l regularly had while drinking cofree,
 "Postum seems to have body-build- ing properties and leaves the head clear. And I do not have the bad taste in my mouth when I get up mornings When Postum Is boiled good and strong, 1t Is far better in taste than coffee.

 Mir. McDaniel said:
 Some slight inaccuracy appears in the article 'swill Houston Pay?'' in today's Is sue of The Advertiser. No action has been brought by the entire county In the Circuit Court of Henry County. Suit was brought to the Circuit Court of Houston County by Henry County seeking to enforce its de- mand under the statute against Houston County for Houston's pro rata portion of Henry County's indebtedness at the time Houston County was created. Whereupon Houston County filed suit in the Chancery Court of Henry County. setting up the pending of Henry County suit fin the lower court and that 1t (TIouston County had no. available defense to the action at law. and invoked jurisdiction of the Equity Court.

THE NEWS OF SELMA CASE AGAINST LON MEDLIN IS
 CONTINUED. Accused of Murder of George Fuller, Near Cotton Mills--Death of
 an Infant-SociaI
 Notes
Advertiser Bureau.

Selma. June 10.
 The capital case in the City Court of Selma against the young white man, Lon Medlin. who is charged with mur- der. was called this morning. The case was continued until the next session of the court.
 When the case was called this morn ing several of the most important wit nesses for the State did not answer. For several weeks the sheriffs office has been looking for these witnesses, but 1t was unable to locate them and as the case of the State could not be made without them the trial was con tinued.
 Some months ago habeas corpus pro- ceedings were instituted before Judge J. W. Mabry, of the City Court, to allow Medlin bond and this was grant ed him in the sum of $500, but the young man was unable to make it and since then has been in the county jail. This morning after the case against him had been continued, Medlin's bond was reduced to $20O and it is believed that he will be able to make bond in that amount.
 The charge against Medlin is that of shooting to death George Fuller, a young man, near the Cawthon Cotton Mills about a year ago. Both of the young men had been drinking and in a quarrel Medlin secured a pistol and shot Fuller.
