NEWS OF EUFAULA.
Congressman H. ID. Clayton has Re-
 turned Home From New York.

COngressman H. ID. Clayton hAa Ae-
 turned Home From New York.
 Eufaula. Nov. S,-(Special.) )-The Cushman Club of oratory and the Nau- tihs of Art, met jointly in the chapel of the Brenau last night where an interesting and enjoyable program of music recitations and other interesting exercises were indulged in and tempting luncheon which was rendered by Misses Teresa Merrill, Catherine Dent and Kathleen Corker was served.
 Upon the conclusion of the program the gathering enjoyed dance and other amusements until 10, o'clock. The Course of Domestic science recent ly equipped with all conyeniences for institution ts fast meeting the favor of the patrons and has been thorough ly equipped with all convienees for the work. Quite a number of pupils have already entered and others have signi- fled their intention to do so and 1t promises to prove of great value to the regular curriculm. Prof Wilkerson Is looking after the affairs of the in- stitution with a degree of diligence that will soon characterize him as one most admirably fitted for the position.
 Hon Henry D. Clayton has reached home from New York and is enjoying some much needed rest at the family home here. Mir. Clayton Is being warm ly congratulated upon his splended efforts in the recent campaign in dem- onBtrating an ability that has charac- tsriEsd him as one of the most able and eloquent members of the house. l owing to his fatigue from his arduous duties but very little has been seen of him upon the streets ana he has not | yet given out a statement to his friends. The pipe organ for the new Baptist church Is now being installed and will 1 soon be In readiness. No further ac- | tion has been taken by the members regarding the call of a pastor but 1t | can not be long before the matter will receive attention and the pulpit will be supplied. 3E
 The city presented something of the festival livaliness yesterday in the | continual hum of the Merry Go Round | which kept the little folks on the move 1 throughout the day. Arrangements were perfected whereby the Meth odist | ladies participated In the. proceeds and a nice sum was realized for their | church.
 The ladies of the new Baptist church l Joining the Post Of1ce throughout next week and hope to realize money to help augment the Pipe Organ fund.
 Misses Alma Long, May Wilson Foy, Ethel Hardt and Jenette Charles

ing Department the criterion of the State interest in the river question, and If the city is too parsimonlous to ap- propriats a paltry slO,000 for It's own wharf, the chances are the crying needs of the Alabama River will be allowed to take care of themselves until the city does decide that the river is the key to an enormous business now suf- fering for lack of intelligent deveI- opment. For these reasons, those in q position to know, say the warehouse and wharf appropriation will go through.
 On the matter of sanitary improve ments, there is more or less doubt. Ex- cept for the occasional cropping out of varioloid cases, which are dignlfied by the name of smallpox for the sake of the dignity of the disease, Montgomery enjoys . healthful condition over and above the average municipality. The cases of contagious diseases are con- fined, to a great extent, to Northern and Western Montgomery. and 1t is be- lieved the installation Of the great North Court Street drainage system, now in course of construction, will rem der this neighborhood one of the most healthful parts of the city. From time to time smaller drains will be put in where needed, but the healthful con- dition of the city. many think, does not warrant large appropriation for this use.
 The waterworks enlargement, too. is not, so favorably received. The city is provided with a flow of water always in excess of the demand, and Its qual- ity is above reproach, Thoughtful men say this needs no improvement before 1910. when there will be 100000 peo- pie in the city limits.
 No sooner than one Banquo's ghost nf 1fnn1 in he pr n prad 1fRap schedule downs, than another springs up. The whiskey part of the license has been settled at last, and now the hack license is demanding more atten- ton. Mayor Teague will veto the H. cense as 1t now stands, claiming 1t Is prohibitive tor the owners of one or two hacks. Others say the license Is as it should be. The result Is a stormy session of the Council Is brewing for the time when the matter comes up.
 So far nothing has been heard from Alderman Parrish's ordinance providing for an improved schedule on the Riv- erside street car line. The street rail- way may send a representative to the next Council meeting to discuss the matter with the Aldermen.
 That local retail business In Mont gomery is on the jump Is shown by the number of petitions from tradesmen asking that they be allowed to place H. Iuminated signs before their places of business. and also many new concerns have made the same request. At the last three Council meetings many or these petitions have been presented and approved, there being also many for new firm names and business houses Of plainer variety.
 Instead of the business of Council meetings diminishing by the settlement or matters. the steady growth of the IA fore the Aldermen. When the chair, these nights, declares the meeting ready to consider new business, this item of municipal government work now shows itself one of the biggest parts of the sessions.

4 CINCINNATI, o., Nov. s-Judge
William H. Taft cast ballot No. 81.
at 4:04 o'clock this afternoon in Pre-
cinct H of the Second ward. the poll
ing place being in a plumbing shop
at zoos Madison rad, owned by
Jonn Volt. 1t required three min
utes for Taft to Cast his ballot after
going into the booth. While in the
voting place and while voting he was
the object OF a decidedly curious
crowd Of men, women and children.
A fiashlight picture was taken OF
him entering the voting place and an
other as he emerged. Before yoing
Taft presented Election Judge Brewer
with letter from the board of cleo
ton supervisors which contained a
decision that Taft's vote would be
legal II cast in that precinct. This
decision was based on the fact that
Taft's last residence was in Cincin-
natl at the old Walker home near the
voting place, the residence portion
Of which has since been destroyed.

TURKEYS
There Will Be Plentiful Sup
ply for Markets and Like
ly Lower Prices.

Local poultry dealers arc already
placing their orders for Thanksgiving
turkeys and other game. They say
this years supply will be plentiful
and the price perhaps lower than last
year. One local dealer says that
turkeys can he purchased from 10
cents up to - cents pound for
Thanksgiving and the Christmas and
New Years price viii be about the
same.
There are few turkeys in the local
market at present but the demand is
not heavy. A supply came in from
the country last Saturday and they
were sold at retail for IS cents a
pound not dressed, which price now
prevails. 1t is little early for tlress-
ed turkeys at present but they are
supplied on order for 80 and % cents
q mound.
Many persons believe that owing to
the recent drought game would be
very dear around the holidays. but
the reports received from the coun-
try say there will be plenty.

FAIRvIEW, LINCOLN, Neb., Nov.
3-William j. Bryan tonight receiv-
ed at his home, Fairview. the returns
which early told him that for the
third time he had been defeated in
the greatest ambition of his life. Con-
tident of victory to the very last he
was not prepared to believe that his
cause was lost until the pluralities of
his Republican opponents piled up in
such proportions as to leave no room
for doubt. When the early returns
came in he made particular inquiries
regarding the state of New York and
found much encouraging ne'Fs in the
gains he was making upstate over
| the Democratic vote of 1904, but as
the figures continued to be received
he relied on Greater New York to OFF
set the heavy Taft vote above the
Harlem river Even that was Bit
lterly disappointed and he soon real
lied that the state was hopelessly
gone and with 1t his prospect OF be-
Ing elected.
According to the predictions OF mis-
managers he was led to believe that
ne would be elected without the ana
OF the empire state and he turned ms
INQUIRIES toward Ohio and indiana.
The heavy democratic gain IN the
thirteenth ONO district was a source
that to him indicated that the prophe-
sizes that Ohio would go Democratic
