Solicitor for Montgomery County. to enforce penalties against the Atlanta steam Heating Company If 1t has en- tered the State and transacted business without complying with the require ments of the laws governing the com merce of foreign corporations doing business In Alabama
 A letter to Mir. Julian stated that the company had an ofice in the State and asked If it had filed a certificate of in- corporation and obtained permit from the Secretary of State. Tn reply. MT. Julian, after an investigation of the records of his office. stated that the company had neither filed the papers for it's entrance Into the State nor otherwise performed the formaiities contemplated by the law.
 Mr. Julian asked that MT. Dent make c full investigation and prosecute If there was case to be made.
 A hne of si.ooo is the penalty for each oftense.
 MT. Julian wrote MT. Dent.
 T beg to advise that the records of this oface fail to show that any such corporation as The Atlanta Steam Heating Company has ever filed in this onice q certificate designating known place of business in this State and ap agent in this State as reQulreo oy eec- tion 364z of the Code of Alabama, 1901; nor has thers been fIed in the office a certified copy of the articles of incor- poration of the above mentioned com pany as required by Section 232 of the Constitution of Alabama, 1901. nor has the said corporation procured the per. init from this Department as required by Section s6B1 of the Code Of Ala. bama, 1907, the fee for which permit is provided for in Section 3ss2 Of said Code.
 Your attention is respectfully caii- ed to Sections 3644. 364s. 36A6 and SsSs of the Code of 1907. and 1t Is re- ouested that proceedings be instituted to enforce the penalties provided In such cases. # the facts as stated as to the transaction of business in this State by said company are true"

TRUSTEEs0F SCHOOLS
THREE FROM EACH DISTRICT ARE
 REQUIRED.
Superintendent of Education Gunneis Informs County superintendents of Effect of Redistricffn1 Act anA
 Municipal Code.

Tn letter published yesterday. Hon Harry C. Gunnels. Superintendent of Education, has again called the atten- ton of County Superintendents to the the requirements of the act to redis- trict schools as amended July II, es- pscially in reference to its effect upon the provisions of the uniform charter act or municipal code"
 Mir. Gunnsls advises the superitend- ents that for every district not govern ed by the uniform charter act, which affords Jurisdiction only within the cor porate limits of towns and cities. three trustees must be elected.
 A copy of the letter follows: Alabama Department of Education Montgomery. June 23. 1908. ITO the County Superintendent:
 ''section 19 of the Redistricting Act approved september 30. 1903. reads as follows:
 asThe provisions of this act shall not apply to any county heretofore districted by law and which has a special levy from the county for the support of the public schools or school districts heretofore established by law
 "on July 17. 1907. Section ls of the redistricting act was amended as foi- lows:
 asThe provisions of tnis act shall not apply to any county heretofore dis tricted by authority of special law and which has a special levy from the county for support of the pubic schools therein
 you will see from the anended act that the expression Or to school dis. tricts heretofore established by law, has been omitted and 1t was evident ly the intention of the Legislature to repeal those special school districts In your county created by local laws passed previous to September 50, 1905. Tn other words. all the districts Tn your county which are not governed by the Municipal Code law should have three district trustees elected in ao- cordance with Section 1897 of the new Code. As you doubtless know the inc corporated cities and towns In your county will be governed by the Muni- cipal Code law.
 T suggest that you carefully look into this matter as 1t relates to your county. and see that on July {, next, three districts trustees are elected in those districts which heretofore have been governed by local acts and in which the trustees have been appoint ed by the County Superintendent or otherwise selected.
 Yours very truly,
 Harry c. 0unnels,
 Superintendent of Education"

 Harold lay still. The whole universe seemed to sway. and then wlairl round hin Tn chaotic mass. His ears were InAl or vague meaningless sound Through 1t at length he seemed to hear the calm voice:
 As nrst I could not be sure of my surmise, for when used the ophthal- moseope your suffering was too recent to disclose the cause looked for Now l am fairly sure of it. What I have since heard from you has con. vinced me; your having sufrered from rheumatic fever and the recrudescence or the rheumatic pain after your ter riole experience of the fire and that long chilling swim.

 T suppose she had better come now. We must not keep her waiting" When the Doctor brought her to his bedside stephen felt in a measure awed. His bandaged face and head and his great beard. singed in patches. looked to her in the dim light rather awsome. In q very gentle voice she said kind things to the sick man. who acknowledged them in feeble whisper. The Doctor. keen observer noticed the change In his voice. and determined to under stand more stephen spoke of his bra very, and how 1t was due to him that all on the ship were saved: and as she spoke her emotion moved her so much that her sweet voice shook and quiv- cred. To the ears of the man who had now only sound to guide him, 1t was music of the sweetest he had ever heard. Fearing lest his voice should betray him. he whispered his own thanks feebly and in few words.
 When stephen went away the Doc tor went with her; 1t was more than an hour before he returned. He found his patient in what he considered a state of suppressed excitement; for. though his thoughts were manifestly collected and his words were calm, he was restless and excited in other ways. He had evidently been thinking of his own condition; for shortly after the Doctor came in he said:

 All right! shall not have any nurse, at present.
