petted all the time It was IN Spokane.
ITO say that the band made hit,
putting it all too mildly" said one
of those who accompanied the boys.
"They were simply it when they ap-
peared and their stay was one contin-
ual ovation. Walla Walla could have
had no better advertising than that
afforded by the Concert band. The
people here should be proud of the or
ganization, it is one of which they
may be proud"
said Edgar Smith, manager of the
band, just after the boys had returned
this morning. 1--WE were given a
rousing welcome and every time we
played were given the biggest kind of
a glad hand. In the afternoon We
played to 1900 pc ..Ie and in the
evening to about 35 900. The boys all
did well and the applause given lis
amply repaid our efforts. The manager
Of the show thanked US personally
for our appearance and congratulated
us on our showing.
1.-THE show is a big one, and there
are millions and millions of apples.
They are there from. all parts of the
world and in large quantities. All
kinds, varieties and sizes. 1t is a
great show, a.. unique one, and one
that will be long remembered"
When the band got as far as At
Italia this morning it's members decid-
ed they must have a banner. and so
they "swiped" a sheet from the Pull
man car, lifted" some boards for a
frame at Alfalfa and borrowed" some
paint at Pasco. Percy Johnson, one of
the musicians, painted the banner with
legend of it's prowess and when the
boys sarrived home and marched
through the street it was borne over
them proudly. iisrla,

Jackson, Miss, November 24.-(Special)
DO no harm to others. Do all the good
to others you can consistently. with a
reasonable-not strained-eonsideration Of
yourself and family"
This was the religion of the late JUS
tioe S. S. Calhoon of the supreme court
of Mississippi, according to manuscripts
found in his effects by his former part
ner, Hon. Marcellus Green.
"A long life Of observation satisfies me
that there can be no genuine oontentment
in this or any future life without self
sacrifice.
"Theologians avail nothing. The pith
and essence of pure religion is considera-
ton for others. Happiness is reflex and
comes only from adding to the happiness
of others.
This comprises, in its last. analysis,
the whole teachings of Jesus Christ as to
the relations and interactions of men,"
These maxims were read at the meet
lug of the State Association this after
noon. They were received with satisfac-
ton, as all present knew they expressed
the sentiments of the broad-gauged, lib

Ensley. November 24.-(Special.) Mrs.
". ". Wood, secretary of the Ensley
Humane society, VIII has returned from
the recent meeting of the General HUI
name convention held at New Orleans,
speaks most enthusiastically of the meet
ing and the benefits derived from her
trip.
In an interview she stated that delegates
were in attendance from all parts of the
world, and the officers of the leading hui
name societies of the United States were
in attendance Papers were read by dele
gates from other states. Mrs. Wood being
the only representative from Alabama
addressed the meeting and asked that
workers be put in the field to acqualnt
the people with the methods and work
of the humane societies. As result an
agent of the national association, who
has devoted his life to the service, will
be sent to Alabama to work up interest
in this work.
Mrs. Wood was much impressed with
the interest manifested by the people OF
New Orleans, who have two societies, one
for the prevention of cruelty to children,
the other for the prevention of cruelty to
animals. The societies own their own
building and maintain several establish
ments to care for the sick and disabled.
The delegates were royalty enter
tanned by the Louisiana societies, who
left nothing undone for their pleasure.
Mrs. Wood brought back much interest
ing literature relating to humane work.
At the next meeting of the Ensley society
she will make report In full.

TRIAL FOR MURDER
State Makes tut Strong Case
Against'Him
WIFE MURDER IS CHARGE
Evidence Tends To Show That the
Man Deliberately Poisoned Wife
So He Could Marry
Another Woman.
WIFE MURDER is CHARGE

Gadsden, November 24.-(Special)-
The trial of Green Albright for the
murder of his wife is progressing rap
idly. The states side was all before
the jury shortly after noon and ex-
animation of the witnesses for the de-
fence begun. The testimony of the
witnesses for the state made out
strong case against the defendant and
at this time it is hard to see how he
can escape the gallows.
The story as told by the witnesses
shows one of the most heartless and
revolving crimes possible to commit. 1t
was fully established by the prosecu-
ton that Albright deliberately poisoned
his wife with strychnine in order to
get rid of her and enable him to marry
Matte Treese, who is charged with
being his accomplice in the crime.
The scenes at the Albright home, as
described by the aged mother of the
dead woman, depict Albright as one OF
tie most heartless wretches magma
ble He gave his wife the deadly drug
and then left her to endure her dying
agonies as best she could.
While the details of the story were
told by the witnesses he sat and
listened unmoved and his whole ma
ture seems unsusceptible to compassion
or pity It is likely that a verdict in
the case will be reached by tomorrow
night.
Solicitor Beykin is conducting the
prosecution alone and the interests Oh
the defendant are being looked after
by Attorneys Davidson of Alfalfa and
Roper of this city.

NEW MEMBER FOR
ANANIAS CLUB

Washington, November 24.-The fol-
lowing statement was given out at the
White House today:
las the New York Sun story entitled
Roosevelt and Prairie OH has seemed
to deceive a number of people, the fol-
lowing statement is made public
about it:
LAS soon as the story was brought
to President Roosevelt's attention he
not only called for reports concerning
the statement from the department Of
justice, and the department of the in
terror, but also communicated with ex-
Secretary Hitchcock so as to be sure
that the Presidents recollection was
not at fault. The story is false in every
particular, from beginning to end. Not
only is there no such report in the de-
partment of justice, and never has been
but no such report was ever made. In
granting the franchise of the Prairie
Oil company, the President simply APP
proved the recommendation of Secre-
tary Hitchcock, submitted to him pre-
cisely as all other recommendations
were submitted. Moreover, in every
case referring to the granting of fran
chises or the adoption of regulations
as regards oil and gas franchises in
Oklahoma and Indian Territory, the
President approved the recommends
ton of Secretary Hitchcock with the
exception of one small and unimpor-
tant grant to a Delaware Indian to
whom the Delaware Indians in recog-
milton of eight years of service to the
tribe, had voted in council fee Of
$4,000, which he declined to accept
and who was given twice the usual
amount of land.
1.-THE statement about the alleged
promise to a western senator is as
ridiculous a falsehood as the rest OF
the story"

POSSIBILITIES FOR
WHITE LABOR HERE
HEcHINGER POINTS OUT WHAT
HAS BEEN DONE AND CAN BE
DONE IN ALABAMA IN WAY OF
COLONIZATION.
To the Editor of The Age-Herald:

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
You were kind enough short time ago
to call attention in the columns of your
valued paper to my aims and work and
among other things touched upon the
colony Elberta in Baldwin county. Per-
nit me now to say few more words
In regard to that colony.
Two or three years ago a Chicago COM
pany bought about 5000 acres OF timber
lands for which, as I was informed, they
paid 81 per acre After cutting off the
timber by which they very probably got
the money back they paid for the land,
they surveyed this land into 20 and 40
acre lots for colonization purposes How
well they succeeded with their purpose
the present alberta colony Is a glorious
proof
There are now settled in alberta about
100 of the best kind of people any state
wants to have and they are still coming.
They are mostly Germans, from the
north, west and middle states, who have
lived in this country 20 and Is years-a
thrifty, economical people who by their
industry had accumulated a little money
and wanted to have home of their own,
which promised them still more pros
perity in the future. They raise every
thing there-fruits, vegetables, poultry,
cattle. etc., besides the twin staple prod
uets of the south-cntton anG ro~1. A-d
the main thing is they are really pros
pering, happy and delighted with the
country-their new home and state.
This northern company, therefore, has
not only benefited themselves-for they
are selling the lands to these people for
Gifted Alabama, because these people
brought new wealth to our state, paying
new taxes and are an added well paying
patronage to their nearby city-Mobile
Yet there is another fact to be men
toned in regard to these new citizens of
Alabama. Most of them have grown chill
dren who constitute quite an addition to
the much desired white labor.
The above is plain ana undeniable
fact of what can be done for our state
if the right methods are purssed.
For several years now l have agitated
this matter and argued 1t with the peo-
pie of our state, in vain seeking the need
ed cooperation. Some of my well-mean-
ing friends in this city have called me
visionary, CHASING after the unattainable.
The Elberta colony, however, as some
older colonies. like Cullman, are all living
proofs that my aims are anything but
visionary, but containing sound bust
ness proposition, besides being a great
benefit to our state.
am happy to say, however, that have
lately succeeded in interesting a number
of prominent people in our district as
well as throughout the state, in my aims
and work, and l will therefore soon be
prepared to begin movement which will
bring to our state new capital, settlers
and the much needed white labor Yours,
s. HECHINGER.
