Hiqh School Located.

hign SCnoOl LoCdteu.
 The following high schools have been located: Cullman county, at Gull man, bid s17,500; Clay county, at Ash land, bid $2S,000; Dallas county at Plantersville, bid $10,000; Chambers county, at lafayette, bid $40,000.
 The bids include the value of the buildings which will be given to the state. In each case the agreement is to supplement the high school found, put lights and water in the buildings and keep the buildings in repair.
 There are only a few more schools to locate and the commission will get them settled as quickly as possible. It is estimated that by the donations to these schools the state comes into property worth at least half million dollars. It Is also a fact that in most of the towns where failure to get the county school took splace. better build ings and equipments will be put up as a result of the enthusiasm.

HIGH SCHOOLS 10 OPEN

Montgomery July 16.-(special) 1.-The importance of the teachers being ac- quainted with school laws is so well recognized by the school officers that lectures are given on them at every op- portunity. William F. Feagin, chief clerk to the superintendent of education, has been at Tuscaloosa much of the week talking to the summer school students of this feature of the school work and he found that there was great need of it.
 Mir. Feagin says that the new code, the acts of the last legislature and many other things have tended to badly mix the laws that govern the schools and he has found it very hard to keep every body posted on them. He takes she acts and goes over them one at time and tells the teachers what they mean how they are made to fit in with others and generally makes the best he can for the whole list. The situation is mixed at the best and it is very neces- sary to get as good from it as is pos aibIe

 With o. c. Wiley the only man for the short term in Congress and four seeking the long term, with the fees to get in quite high, the outlook is that the congressional race is pretty well laid out S. H. Dent, c. R. Bricken Thomas J. Hall and w. H. Sanford are the candidates so far in the race.
 MT Dent, who was delegate to the convention at Denver, says that MT. Bryan Is the choice of the great body of the party and he believes he will be elected He is well pleased with both the candidate and the platform. His in- formation was from talking with men from all over the country, that the party is well behind the leader and will win out for him.
 MT Dent was a member of the 1892 convention at Chicago that nominated MT Cleveland. Like that at Denver the selection was made just before day in the morning. It is remarked as strange that the only two conventions he ever attended should nominate democratic candidate just before sun up.

On Monday Commissioner V. L. Rev. ington received a telegram from the marshal at Fairbanks stating that $500 of the money embedded by Gibson had been located at Emery, Cal, and $500 at Halifax, all of which was being transferred to that office by mail.
 The $500 which was sent to Mrs. J. Sweet, an aunt of Gibson's, consisted of 8 collection of nuggets which belonged to the Nicholas Nelson estate, and was sent by registered mail from Cinema. This fact was ascertained by Mir. Bev- ington during his recent visit to Fair banks, and steps were immediately taken to secure the gold upon arrival at it's destination. 2,
 It is not known here how trace of the $500 which was sent to Halifax was secured,,but it is supposed to have been traced through the postoffice.
 It is estimated that Gibson had about 5000 at the time he absconded. When he had about $2OO on his per- son; he had given $500 to law firm in Fairbanks as attorney fees, which they refused to keep and turned over to MT.
