"ANIMAL PERFECTION"
 DOESN'T APPEAL TO JOHN

"A perfect creature. guaranteed not to shy at anything" was the recom- mendation furnishe ed by gypsy of the band encamped near washington Park in regard to a horse which he was att tempting to swap to John Johnson a negro. for another horse belonging 10 John Voluminous. The conversation gypsey's eloquence made hts horse as- suine a beauteous shape in the negro's eyes.
 John Johnson is credulous and little versed in the lore of tradition. other wise he might have doubted the asser- ton of the gypsy. The gypsy's horse was fatter and sleeker than his, which appealed greatly to his fancy He ex- anined thoroughly the animal which he began to greatly desire. Maybe Jonn wished a horse with which to take femininity driving. at any rate when the gypsy announced that his horse would go by train like he didn't even see It." the negro's inclination became supreme and the swap was made, John paying to the gypsy S5 in addition 70 giving him his horse.
 Last night a nnournful voice sounded over the phone calling police headquar- ters. IL was John. He wanted the gypsy arrested. Tn response to the in- quiries of the officer he stated the err cumstances of the trade of yesterday making the singular complaint that the horse which he had obtained was too perfect Explanation followed and the fact was finally educed that Johns re- cent acquisition was perfectly" blind, He really never shies and it is equally true that he goes by trains as tf he did not see them.

the southward movement of money. One hundred and six new railway en- terprises were under way in the South when the politicians began using the Southern railways as footballs. These new roads were to be for the develop. ment of timber and mining regins and to handle Tong hauls" in Texas and Oklahoma. The promoters of the en- terprises have. for the moment, been frightened away. They will get back on the job as soon as a certain brand of politician Is relegated to oblivion.
 It was the principal roads of the South--namely, the Southern Railway the Seaboard Air Line. and the Atlantic Coast Line-that set to work in a practical way to encourage the growth of building association in the South. that helped develop the savings bank idea that gave practical aid in the con- struction of better homes for working men. that led the work of beautifying towns and cities, that showed the way to municipal advancement in sanIta- tion These three great railroads, in fact. brought to the South new energy, new vim, new wealth. The story of the New South is the story of the Southern railroads. It was the rail- roads built by Flagler and the late MT. Plant that made Florida a health resort for the whole nation.

PRIVILEGE TO HUNT

An important decision has been handed down by the Supreme Court or Alabama deciding an essential point

 mission must be had. The term owner must be given, as employed in thls act, it's primary meaning. which Is he who has the title. as distinguished from ( mere possessory right to the permis. sion. This construction is rendered certain in correctness by two consider atoms. additional to the general purpose of the act to which we have referred. The quoted section confers the prerog- atiye to give the written permission on the agent of the owner. thereby plainly evincing on intent to conflne the right to confer the. privilege of hunting on one acting for and in the stead Of the owner, and thus excluding the tenant, whose possessory right Is. of course, Inconsistent with that of him who holds title. The second consideration is based upon this provision of Section A: Said written permission shall De good for one year from the day of It's Issuance unless otherwise provided, at the expiration of one year from the date of it's issuanee.' If the tenant, who is, of course, not an agent of the owner in any sense, could issue the permission. 1t would result that the Tight so conferred on the hunter might extend beyond, by many months the termination of the tenants term. Ger tainly, such a result was not eontem- plated by this Act.

CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATES ARE

It Is confidently expected that the campaign for the vacancy in Congress from the Second Alabama District will open tonight. By tonight statements a number of the candidates.

Under no circumstances and under no consideration would I become q candidate" said MT. Jones: T am not only not a candidate for Congress but I am not a prospective candidate for any office. I have not been nor will be candidate for office. l am a rail road man and I propose to stick to my business and not be led off by the kind things said by partial friends"
 It Is believed that the Congressional Executive Committee will direct that the nomination be made by a rna1ority primary. The committee Is cloth ed with the power to do that The point has been made that the State Execu. !. tive Committee laid down a rule that all Democratic primary nominations should be made by a plurality voteA
 But this ruling was for the primary of May lS and 1t went no farther Members of the Committee have sound- 2 cd the party authorities and they nave learned. definitely that any rule re- garding a plurality nomination was made for the May IS primary and Tor no other. The Congressional Commi t- tee cam therefore, adopt either or the two kinds of primaries.
 . If Montgomery should have. as now seems probable. two or three candi- dates for the vacancy, strong enort will be made to have a preliminary County primary so that the County can enter the general race with only one candidate. It is believed that Mont gomery County's chances to furnish the Conrr essnlan would be materially les- sened if the County's vote was split up among three different candidates. 1t was Generally accepted on the street vegtsrday that Messrs. R. Good- wyr. s. H. Dent, Jr, and Tnomas :. Hall would make the race. A nunpesF of the friends of General William -. Oates have urged him also 10 enter the contest.

RAIIwAYs UNITE COUNTRY.
They Knit North and South Tosether
 After Clvil War.

After CIvn War.
 Leslie's Weekly. .,
 The Southern Railways, more than hrotherhood. Knitted the North and Sorth together after the war. The raiIways gave prosperity to the south bv encouraging immigration and bringing in people to help do the up- building. Memphis twenty years ago had a population of 64,oOo. To-day 1t has lo2 900. The railways did 1t. A few years ago hundreds of places in Louisiana, like Crowley, for example. were only prairie land. The southern Pacific built station at Crowley ana to-day that place boasts 1000 persons Other railroads did the same thing TOT a hundred other thriving places in the Southern States. The Southern Railway went into the waste places of the South and caused towns to spring up. The Seaboard Air Line went into a country of blasted hopes, and built up new industries. and with them new courage. To a region of penury the Atlantic Coast Line brought plenty by putting cash Into circulation where no cash had been before. The South ern Railway gave the exact service necessary for the healthy development of the States through which 1t runs. It not only created new industries, but itself became the chief customer for the products of the new mills.
 The South needed $20o, ,O0o 900 for further immediate development The Southern railways were securing that vast investment of Northern capital along their lines-when the unrea- soning agitation against all railroads set In and. temporarily at least, halted
