Figures Shoy Success Of
 The Army Fresh Air Camp

$1.0Oo. Of this amount but $65o had been raised by the time the camp was ready for occupation. Every Sunday and even during the week days tha camp has been visited by hundreds with the result that $222.22 additional has been raised, making the deficit in the treasury a trifie over S10O
 In his report Captain Odom states that the expenditures were as follows:
 Opening expenses, $500; run ming expenses for the last week in June, 45; running expenses for the month of July, $500; running expenses for the month of August to date, $29o. making total of $935.
 It Is announced that the camp will complete the month of August, and for this purpose at least $65 more is need ed, making the estimate of Captain Odom at the beginning of the undertak- ing, correct.
 Captain odom is more than pleased with the work which the camp has done during the heated period. The hundreds of letters and personal thanks which he has received at the headquar- ters of the Army on Whitman Street. have testified that the poor of the city are grateful, while the number of healthy boys and girls. the bright-eyed mothers and glad faces of the fathers. show every day the success of the camp.

 This new sewer will nearly double the capacity of the sewer for carrying away the water.
 Stanley Parker and Will Carter had a personal difficulty yesterday in the pool room of s. R. Wood. and Parker struck Carter over the head with pool Is still unconscious
 Parker was arrested by Marshal Spenny and held for trial as soon as Carter is able to attend court and wit ness against him.
 No cause is assigned for the act, and no words were heard by those standing near, but it Is thought there is an old grudge between the men.
 Carter is a we'll known cattle man. and Parker has been employed at E. I. Smiths livery and feed stables for several years.
 Professor J. b Lane has returned from his summer vacation and is mak- ing ready for the opening of the city school September 7th The largest att tendance in the history of the school is confidently expected, as the last term of the school was one of the most successful ever taught here. The school has largely its old corps of teachers and good work will be done again the next session.
 The extra session of the County Board of Revenue will convene tomor- row for the purpose of looking after some tax raises and also to pass upar the list of petitioners for holding the election on the question of assessing and collecting the additional school tax of one mill for another term of years

That the Fresh Air Camp of the Sal- vation Army at Pickett Springs is do- ing a wonderful charity among the poor of the city is evidenced by the re- port of Captain Odom to the public who have so generously supported his ideas. The camp has, during the two months of It's existence this summer, taken care of no less than 300 working women and children unable by their own means to take any outing whatever.
 Not only have women and children been taken care of by experts, but five Confederate Veterans have spent some time at the camp and write a touch ing note of thanks to the local com mander and his wife.
 Probably few in Montgomery know that the Fresh Air Camp at Pickett Springs Is an almost perfect model of the work which the Salvation Army is doing for the poor and destitute all over the world. High officers of the Army in the United States have visited the camp and all proclaim that In its appointment and general executive the camp is ideal Of course. there are larger camps in the larger cities. but for the excellence of its work the offi- cial organ of the Army gives the Mont gomery camp the highest praise.
 When Captain Odom and his corps of assistants began their summer plan" ming, it was found necessary to raise

NEGROES SECURE RELEASE
 BY HABEAS CORPUS WRIT

Miles and Matha Love. two negroes arrested and brought to the county Jail several days ago. were yesterday released from the custody of the law as the result of habeas corpus pro ceedings before Judge Pearson. The two negroes were accused of stealing corn.
 At the time of their arrest before Justice of the Peace Cheney. the two negroes were accused of stealing ears of corn from the Mccullough place. It was stated to the justice that the two had brought the stolen corn to Mont Komery and had disposed of 1t to truck stands in the city. Justice Cheney made out a warrant for grand larceny. and the two Loves were sent to Montgomery.
 At the hearing yesterday afternoon Judge Pearson deemed the evidence presented to be entirely insufficient. and the two were discharged. much to their expressed delight

FAIR WEATHER AND
 NO SHOWERS PREDICTED

It rafned again yesterday after noon. A most pleasant shower.
 But the prediction as issued by the local weather bureau proclaims fair w'eaafler' fort today. Tho low area which has been hanging over Ala bana with its centre over western Georgia yesterday passed away to the eastward, with the result that fair weather will prevail for the immediate future.
 Yesterday afternoon the thermome- ter in the weather bureau showed a reading of S4 1-2 degrees, while the one on the roof of the building was several degrees higher. The humidity In the office was 6s degrees, which fact will account for the heat which many Montgomerians experienced dur Ing the middle of the day, despite the pleasant breeze from the northwest which was prevailing

 /tone of Montgomery's most promi- |hent wholesale liquor house managers Avesterday. in discussing the Georgia state law prohibiting the advertise ment of alcoholics in Georgia papers, and holding papers sold in that state liable for prosecution for selling paper in the State with booze ad- vertisement in 1t, said:

 Tn the first place 1t would take an army to keep the paper out of the States. they could not interfere with papers sent through the United States mail. and they cannot muzzle free press.
 As long as the advertisements pay. we will continue them, and Georgia s iaw-nakers. may as well try to ball up the business of the man in the moon as to interfere with advertise ments of out-of-State papers.

THE CONTENTED HOSTESS.

All sorts of ideas are advanced by writers on women's affairs as to how
 to make entertaining easy; how to stop worry: how to make every guest not only feel at home but that all the lit- tie niceties you offer were prepared especially for each one. These writers mean well. but they don't go deep enough to get at the real facts or they would find that Nabisco Sugar Waters. the dainty, delicicious confection, are the real basis of hostess success and contented spirit They're just the sort of dessert for a luncheon, ideal after dinner and delightful with a hot cup or with the tinkling glass on a moonlit porch.

With two nets attached to poles fif- teen feet long and a wagon ready TOT use, the police department of the clty is prepared to wage strenuous cam paign against the unmuzZled canlneS of Montgomery. Before instituting operations, however. they will give the people of the city opportunity to secure the muzzIes required for the safety or their four footed pets.
 Local dealers had on hand very lew of the muzzles, but have ordred large number of them and expect their ar rival within several days. Then woe 10 the Fido with visage unobscureo.
 There exists at headquarters con siderable perplexity as to the meas ures to be adopted in snaring dogs The apparatus for the consummation of that result is to say the least de- cidedly unwieldy. To the end Of tlr- teen foot poles are attached iron rings three feet in diameter, the nets being fastened to them. None but an in- spired Hercules can lift the net from the end of the pole with any facility and when one considers the antics which dogs indulge in when playful, it appears almost absurd to hope to catch them in a net which can be moved

BIBB GRAND JURY
JUDGE MILLER DwELLs ON BLOC
 TON OUTRAGE.
Charges InquisitoriaI Body to Investi- gate Shooting on Train And Applauds Course of
 Sheriff Oakley.


 Centerville, Aug, 25-(SpeciaD- Circuit court convened here at noon yesterday with Judge Miller on the bench.
 A large crowd of representative citi- gems of the county assembled at the court house to listen to the charge de- livered by Judge Miller to the grand jury The charge was of considerable length but the crowd listened to every word uttered by the judge with in- tense attention.
 Judge Miller laid much stress to that part of the bill of rights in the con stitution of Alabama which guarantees to every citizen life. liberty and pur- suit of happiness. He admonished the ton of the assassination of Conductor Collins and two other men and the wounding of eleven others at Blocton on the night of August 9th, and to in- dict the guilty parties without fear or favor.
 He deplored the blot on the fair name of Bibb County caused by the hood of the citizens of the county to erase the blot by bringing the guilty parties to justice.
 He called the attention of the grand jury to the fact that the law abiding citizens of the other counties in Ala DdInd e4pSClt0 tHe SFduu JufOiS ol bipH County to do their duty. He commend ed Sheriff Oakley and his fearless deputies for the firm stand they have taken to suppress crime and bring the guilty to justice.
 The charge was pronounced by those who heard 1t as the key note to law and order in Bibb County.
 The grand jurors are among the best men in Bibb County. J. A. Fair was selected as foreman.
 The civil docket Is being rapidly | cleared, a number of cases having already been settled.

slowly only with great exertion.
 The police officers are somewhat dubious as to the efficacy of the present apparatus.
 On the other hand a convenient ar rangement for safely handling dogs does not suggest itself readily. If the pole be shortened 1t will be required that the man handling 1t approach the brute very closely and there then enters into the calculation the element of dan ger to him. Nor can the diameter or thickness of the iron ring to which the net is fastened be materially decreased without rendering the operation of catching the animals much more diff cult.
 It is planned to use the apparatus now on hand and if satisfactory results are not obtained, notifications will be tried

DEPRECATE STORIES OF

Usual Rates Will Be in Force
During Democratic National
Convention; ProprietorS
Pledged to This,

IBy Morning journal Special Lensed Wire
Denver, Colo. March Be. l..
Scholtz president of the chamber of
commerce, issued a statement today
in which he made clear the fact that
Denver hotelmen were pledged not to
raise rates during the meeting Of the
democratic national convention.
There has been printed in many
newspapers an erroneous statement
to the effect that Denver hotelmen
paid a large shore Of the $500. 900
raised here to help defray the rx-
penses of the national democratic
convention and they intend to make
it back by raising rates. said Mr..
Scholtz. As a matter Of fact the con-
tributiOns of the hotel men were in
significant compared with what was
given by other interests. The hotel
men are pledged in writing not to
raise their rates beyond what is
charged for rooms and meals at 0rdi-
nary times and there will be no JUS
tice for complaint on the part Of any
one who comes here to attend The
convention. There is no truth in the
report and this statement is made to
set at rest any uneasiness that may
have been caused by such misleading
statements
w F. r. Mills, secretary Of the
chamber of commerce, and a promi-
nent republican, supplemented Mr..
Scholtz's statement in a similar vein.
