OLD CITIZEN DEAD.
Squire Edley S. Dunn Passes Away
 After Short Illness.

Tuscaloosa. January 19.-(Special.) J. News was received in this city yesterday of the death of Squire Edley s. Dunn, at his home near Oregonia, in the north ern part of the county. MT. Dunn sus- tained stroke of paralysis two years ago and another last week, this latter one proving fatal. He was one of the oldest and best known citizens of the county and was a great political factor In the county for many years He has a great many friends here who learn with deep regretiHof his death.
 Tuscaloosa friends regret to learn of the death of Rev. Luther Norris at his home in Shubuta, Miss. Rev. 4dr. Nor ris formerly lived in Northport. and there married Miss Mary Simpson, a sister of MT. Alex Simpson and MT. George Simp- son of this place. Mrs Norris survives her husband and has the sympathy of a large circle of friends in this city.
 Mrs Ellen Peter Bryce entertained the Up-to-Date club in a most charming fashion at her pretty home on Seventh street last night. Rev. w. F. Evans, rector of the Church of the Advent Birmingham, had been invited to de- liver his lecture, 1.-The Wizard of Cad s Hill.p before the club on the occasion, and he entertained and instructed the club and the guests present with most schol- arly discourse. Dr. Evans treated of the religious side of Dickens, and showed, by copious and appropriate quotations from the great authors works, his great faith and deep piety.

men have returned to work within the last few weeks.
 When the mills are operating and payrolls become large, the amount of money thrown into circulation by the workingmen and tn edr families Is im- mediately reflected by the general financial situation.
 Sub ub-committees representing various branches of industries have held con- ferenees from time to time and a re- adjustment in prices is being made in various lines.
 More confidence is manifested in the iron and steel trade and the waiting policy which was manifested for some time is fast disappearing.
 The great mills at Homestead are running steadily. Jones & Laughlin's are resuming steadily. and the same can be said of all other mills. The Singer & Nimick plant of the Crucible company, which has been idle for some weeks, Is again operating. and there are sufficient orders ahead to predict that the mill will run steadily.
 The conditions in manufacturing towns surrounding Pittsburg also are improving. Merchants report that busi- ness is picking up so steadily that within a short time they will be ex- periencing the great prosperity that prevailed for a number of years.
 Members of the chamber of commerce and prominent bankers and brokers are most optimistic. The consensus of opinion is that Pittsburg is too great a financial city and has too many in dustries to suffer long from tempor- ary slump

DEEP MURDER MYSTERY

Ensley, January 19.-(Special. 1.-The clos ing revival service of the Methodist church. held at the opera house tonight, in which all the other churches joined, was great success, and fitting close to the most successful services ever held in Ensley.

The choir was large and com posed of many of the members of the choirs of the other churches. Simple hymns were sung, the large audience join ing in heartily Many additions to the church were made during the past two weeks. The pastor, the Rev. B. B.

Ebert H. cary's Views.

New York. January 1A-(SpeciaL)- Business will certainly be more hon estly and fairly conducted hereafter this will prove one good result of the relaxation last fall"
 This statement was made by Judge Ebert H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel corporation. Judge Gary regards the future with optimism.
 We have a number of opportunities to return to normal conditions" con tinued Judy Gary. "As soon as these opportunities are taken advantage of, there will be an Improvement. This inn provement should be here early this year, and should continue to be more marked until fall. l look for satis- factory volume of business before the year ends.
 "Conf1dence Is the essential thing. The optimist will be successful as long as he keeps within the limits of his re- sources. Nobody can shirk the restora- tion of confidence, for everyone Is re- sponsible for the lack of confidence when 1t comes. It is not time for motives of cupidity or other improper motives"

COUNTY ROADS ARE BAD.
Continuous Rains Have Had Serious
 Effect Upon Roads.

Valley Head, January 1s.-(Special.l-On account of the frequent and excessive rains that have prevailed for some time our county roads, generally. are in worse condition than for many years
 The citizens of Fort Payne, by availing themselves of the favorable weather that prevailed earlier, and the money which the state offered to those who first helped themselves, have comparatively good roads in their vicinity. Indeed, many of the roads leading from their city have al- most the appearance, if not the solidity of macadamized highways.
 The DeKalb County Medical society held their first meeting for this year on last Tuesday, the 18th inst, when Dr. Floyd of Valley Head was elected president; Dr. Warren of Fort Payne. vice president; Dr. Nicholson of Valley Head, county health officer.
 Our school keeps up a membership of about 100.
 Tom Davenporte has been quite sick with grippe for a few days, but is now improving.
 Charles Warren of Illinois is on a visit here.
