Murder Of a Most Heartrending Nature.
Nature.

/ A young mother. with her eight months old baby in her arms, were found dead in a pool of their own blood lying across the floor of their bed room.
 All indications point towards the theory that a burglar broke in through the window and that the young mother tried to keep him at distance by throwing all kinds of ornaments at him. which were found scattered about the room. most of them broken to pieces.
 Mother and baby both. were found stabbed in their heart with a knife and there is not the least doubt that if this young mother would have had pistol she could have saved her only baby, and her own life. The new law which prohibits the sale of pistols in Alabama. goes into effect July the Ist. and Klein's, Montgomery Loan Co.,. at 7 N. Court street. are now closing out their big line of pistols below cost. In time of peace prepare for war.

Cigarette
 Smokers Can be Cured--This Man Smoked Cigarettes
 For Ten Years.
Could Not sleep without Smoking During the Night, and as n Result Never Felt Like Getting Up
 in the Morning.

feel it my duty to let the unfcrtun- ate ''Ciearette Fiend" know that there is a cure for the cigarette habit, no matter how long or to what extent one has been using these ltfe-destroy- . ing agents of the devil In my case l had been smoking cigarettes since was 10 years old. The desire for cigar cites was such that my first thought on arising in the morning and my last thought at night before retiring was "a cigarette,'' and finally l got so l would wake during the night and inhale the smoke from a cigarette before l could again go to sleep. As a result or the constant use of cigarettes during the night I would not feel like getting up in the morning, feeling so tired that l had neither energy to arise nor appe- tIte at breakfast time, consequently would take my breakfast to my place of business and maybe eat t later on. Tn fact, I had little appetite at any time, and weighed only 119 pounds. whereas. since taking your treatment, now weigh 140 pounds.
 | want to tell all cigarette users that if they will take a course Of your Specfaily Prepared Home Treatment in accordance with directions that accom- nenv each course of treatment, that they will not only get rid of all desire or necessity for cigarettes. but their general health will be greatly improv- ed. Yours truly.

The amalgamation of camps of the Sons of evterans wtth the camps of the Yet erans was the subject of prolonged discussion at the convention of the Sons of Veterans this afternoon and a resolution urging camps of sons to avail themselves of this privilege was adopted.

Hooker at White House.

Booker T. Washington turned up here today and had talks with both Presi- dent Roosevelt and Secretary Taft. His happening in at this time started con- siderable gossip in political circles for the reason that the attitude of the ne- groes of this city towards the admin istration is a foremost topic, especially as the National Republican Committee has for some days been "soaking' the black men favorable to Foraker, and other nti-administration Presidential candidates pretty much on the same lines that the administration "swatted' the negro soldiers mixed up In the Brownsville shooting.
 At any rate, Booker Westinghouse s visit here just now creates much talk.
 What the negroes don't like about his going to the White House at this tuncture of affairs is that they do not look upon washington as the leader or his race by a jugfull. They have been mad with him for a year or more be- cause he has not espoused the side or the discharged soldiers, and they look upon him as keeping his mouth shut also when the negro preachers and poll fticians have been calling loudly for him to come out and join them in try ing to prevent the nomination Of either Taft or Roosevelt at Chicago.
 Washington's excuse for being here at this time Is that he came to assist the Liberians who are on visit to this country with a view of enlisting the friendly offices of our Government in their efforts to prevent the European nations from gobbling up territory of fhe African Republic.

TO SQUELcH JONES
THIS was PURPosE OF BILL THAT
 FAILED.
Booker Washington Visits the White House and Negroes are stirred Again over His Attitude
 Towards Politics.

Washington, June 10.--(Special.) )-- On account of the conflict of authority between Judge Jones and Judge Hund- ley with regard to the appointments or a referee in bankruptcy for the Nortn- ern Judicial District of Alabama, IL IS appropriate to recall that early Tn me last session of Congress bill was in- troduced in both the Senate and House which was aimed at Judge Jones ana that evidently to prevent him rom having any authority in the Northern District.
 The bills were identical, and were introduced by Senator Clark of Wyom- ing. and Representative Jenkins of Wisconsin, chairmen respectively of the Senate and House Judiciary commit- tees.
 1t was understood here at the time that these measures were offered at the fnstigation of Judge Hundley It is known also that friends of Hundley tried energetically to have the bills favorabiy reported, and that 1t was common talk that they wanted them passed. as they said, so that Tom Jones could be completely squelched. |"
 well. those bills did not get through. They are still sleeping in the commit tee rooms. They were never even pushed beyond mere consideration by sub b-committeeg.
