CONVICT ESCAPES
JOHN BILLIARD MAKES 4. DARING
 BREAK.
struck Down OHacer Morrison, Brained Camp Dogs and Dashed to Catch M. q 0. Train
 PaaafnR

Taking H. G. Morrison, the convict guard on the Henderson plantation, by surprise Monday morning, John Wesley Hilliard, a negro convict, struck the officer down with an iron bolt and es- caped.
 The men were being taken from the stockade and Morrison was walking little ahead of the party. Hilliard saw a freight train coming and seizing an iron bolt lying near, struck the guard down, and then tried to hit him again, but was prevented by two other pris- oners. He raved away before the oth- CT guards. still inside the stockade, knew what was going on and headed across field.
 The camp hounds were put on his trail and tive of them speedily caught up to him. Turning the negro bra1ned one with the iron bolt and knocked the other senseless, the nrunning on, caught a passing NJ. and O. freight train. A message was immediately sent in to Montgomery and other points were notified by wire
 Hilliard was sent up for six months in September for unmercifully beating Scale Smith, a little negro. The man is nearly six feet tall, weighs about 1S0 pounds. has a heavy dark mus tache, Is unusually black and appears to be about 40 years old. A reward of $50s has been offered for his capture by w. G. Henderson on whose farm the assault took place. The farm Is five miles out from Montgomery on the Washington ferry road.

CHICAGO PROFESSOR SAYS
 DOGS MAKE GOOD FOOD


 Chicago. Nov. 30.-Frederick Starr, professor of anthropology at the Uni- vefsity of Chicago, in a. church lecture here last night on the Philippines said:
 "In all the islands. there is not a tribe that is not capable of self gov ernment. There can be no doubt in any ones mind as to the Christian tribes, but even to the savages. think the words of the great republican apply: No man is good enough to rule another man without that mans consent
 "Oh, you say. but they are head hunters and dog eaters They are. But I never could see why dog should not make good food. They eat only clean, white, young male dogs. Why should the idea of eating dog give us the shivers while the actual con- sumption of swine does not turn the stomach of the daintiest lady?
 why. do you know, I have seen people in this country who would eat raw oysters. I have done 1t myself. .. Think of a person who eats raw oys- ters sneering at people that eat clean cooked dog.
 "As to the head hunting, that is over now, but when it existed it was a religious ceremony and does not com pare unfavorably with some religious ideas prevalent in the United States.
 "'But think of the turbulent MoTos,' you say. Would we be turbulent if foreigners invaded our country, seized our lands and property and demanded that we pay tribute? All the Moros ask is to be let alone"
 The professor gave individual iR- stances of the industry, morality, in- telligence and of the actual capabili- ties of the wild tribes, mentioning as proofs of civilization the fact that he had met pagan Igorrotes worth S50,000 in gold and Moros worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

OnUTEu
 Largely Attended.
 Eufaula. Nov. 30.-(Special )-An or gan recital under he direcion of Mrs. E. T. Long at the new Baptist church last night. filled the vast auditorium to it's fullest capacity and large num- bers were forced to stand during the rendition of the program.
 It was the first occasion the citizens enjoyed in hearing the new instrument and the program was made up of vocal and instrumental numbers that greatly pleased the assembly. Mrs. E. T. Long, Mrs. Etha Patterson Griffin of the Ere nau and Miss Lucy Gleen contributed the instrumental selections which brought out the deep rich tones of the instrument in strong strains that filled the building that died away with ex- Quis.te sweetness
 The following we'll known vocalists of the city rendered solos that greatly charmed the entire audience, after which a collection was taken and a large sum was realized that will go to swell the organ fund. Mrs. c. c. Caldwell. Mrs. S o Williams. Mrs Bert ram E. Brown, Mrs P. G. Wilkerson and MT c. A. Covey. Rev. D. J. Blackwell of the Presbyterian church offered the invocation and pr. Johnson made a talk during the offertory.

H. A. Knight and his family are pre- pairing to leave the city about the mid dle of next month. MT. and Mrs. Knight will make Huntsville their fu- ture home.
 Gov. B. B Conner of Montgomery was among the distinguished visitors to Eufaula yesterday. Governor Conner and Hon. Henry D. Clayton attended services at the First Methodist church yesterday morning.
 Rev. Henry T Johnson was greeted with large audience at the Methodist | church last night prior to the organ | recital and delivered an interesting talk. Dr. Johnson told in a pleasing way the duties of the congregation to the new pastor using an appropriate text from Corinthians. He urged that he should come without fear or com plaint and related in an amusing way some of his experiences along that line. Upon the conclusion he announced that on next Sunday evening" he would de- liver his farewell sermon to the mem bers which now number 439. Miss Everlyn Sapp returned yester- day to resume her duties al school in Montgomery after spending thanksgtv- ing with her father here.

VIII.-A Model Factory
By Fredericg. Haskin.

edge, and a beautiful view of the river and the surrounding country from the roof garden. Of iron frame work and light colored brick, and with floor space of i've and a half acres. the factory resembles a giant conserv- atory because of it's many windows. There are 30,0o0 window lights in all. letting in a flood of sunshine that searches out every nook and corner of the building and allows little room for the hiding away of dust or dis order. It is only on very cloudy days that electric lights are ever called into play to augment the natural light.
 The glass on the windows is doubled to prevent the entrance of dust or smoke-though smoke is found in neglible quantity in this locality. The ventilation is supplied from a great central tower, large fans serving to change the air every few minutes. In winter the air Is warmed. in sum- mer 1t is cooled before reaching the operatives. An auditorium, seating over a thousand people is on an up- per floor at the front of the build ing. This serves the operatives as an assembly place when lectures are giv- en specifically for them and as a dance hall when the office force and the factory operatives entertain all
  lie for entertainments of general nature or for benefit lectures when the beneficiary is some general char
 ity.
 On another upper floor is the girls | recreation room where they may gath | CT after luncheon every day to read, | or rest or play the piano. and where each girl may come for fifteen anin-
 utes in the morning and fifteen min | utes in the afternoon for bit of rest | and a breathing spell. The floor above
 this is the dining hall where the | women employees are served a good luncheon every day at the expense of the company. Each girl is given a l fifteen cent check every day, and she
 may spend it all On one meal, or she
 may save part and have an extra \ spread for herself the next day, the bill of fare being displayed in large | letters, and each item being put at cost price. A good chef with a corps
 of assistants prepares the food. and
 it is served by the girls in turn, the groups being chosen alphabetically The men are served in similar dim
 ing hall. but pay ten cents for a | meal.
 In the basement are individual lock CTS and the needle and shower baths that have added to the fame of the in-
