HORSES RECOVERED
SALVATION ARMY CAPTAIN GETS
 BACK STOLEN ANIMALS.
Were Found Four Miles From City by
 Man Who Read of Disappear anee In The Ad- yerfiRer.

It was because sfr. Miller. a farmer of the Norman Bridge Road. reads The Montgomery Advertiser every morning, that Captain Odord of the Salvation Army, had returned his two lost horses with accelerity. that surprised even the faithful Captain.
 It was Monday night when the two horses. upon whom Captain odonr- de- peuds for so much physical aid in his work, and which had been missing since Sunday morning, were returned to him.
 They had heen found on the Miller farm on the Norman Bridge Road, straying loose. All indications point ed that the horses had been ridden oR from the yard in which thay were kept by Captain Odom, the riders, evidently. turning them loose Sunday night, or such Is the idea of Captain Odom re- garding their disappearance.
 At any rate Mr. Miller found the horses on his farm, and almost siinui- taneonsly read in The Advertiser of how the horses of the Salvation Army Captain had disappeared. The descrip- ton in The Advertiser story corres- bonded to the appearance of the horses, and the owner of the stray animals was easily found
 And now, once more. the chief of the local Salvation Army corps can ride and visit and administer his charity broadcast, without hindrance. for the animals upon which he depended so much are recovered.

ELECT OFFICIALS
ELECTION IS HELD BY
 RTY OF CAPITOL HEIGHTS.
Conduct the Adasrs Of the City During the First

That right little. tight little city of Capitol Heights. starts today upo11its career. as a fully equipped municipal ity, for by the election of yesterday, the citizens burdened themselves with n Mayor and five Aldermen.
 J. s. Pinckard is Mayor; that bit of news has been forecasfed so often as to be old in the telling. There were twenty-seven votes cast. andA he got twenty six.
 The second in the running for nrst place was Dan Turner. who got the other vote. It Is whispered abroad thas Mfr. Mayor elect Pinckard, cast that sin gle ballot himself. and thus spoiled his own chances for a unanimous count.
 The Aldermen, as named on the tick ct. all pulled through most with sana nfrnous vote. Mr W. L. Van Peltl who had been nominated withdrew from the ticket, and Mir, s. E. Gum ran in his stead. The five Alderuier. as elected. were: Massey Wilson, c. C. Dave, " ". Leak. s. K. Gum and J. B. Holc6mbe.
 ss The newly -elects will be installed, in- augurated and further inrnortalized within few days, as soon as theAr suit of the election Is officially an nounced ir, a canvass Of the returns by Probate Judge Gaston. And then. like all other model officials, they will start upon their reform movements, wiptng 'out graft. and will perform all the rest of. the things that 1t is incumbent on model ofieer.t
 There will be no division into wards as yet, all five of the Aldermen having been elected at large.

And now-with a gentle raise of the mercury you poor human beings will side back to your warm repose, de- ciares the weather forecasts. For, bar ring a slight freeze. which was predict ed for today, the lord of things hot and cold. and things wet and dry, sees noth- ing but warm weather ahead.
 Technically he talks of a lapse in the high barometric conditions giving rise to a lowering of pressure. 1t means lot to him. of course, and he has eon- strued the gyrations of the barometer into the promise of warmed weather for this part of the world.
 So back to your Indian summer sem blance, back to the sun shine and the balminess back to the days when the rays of Old Sol will beat Nupon the earth, with turing radiance, and call from, offices and store rooms. the drowsy business man: when the heat will enter the bones of the hunting dogs a lassitude that congealsg the joints and dul1s the fine sense and love of activity.
 For one brief week, the plumber and the coal man has had each his innings; for just little while these alleged ene- mics of mankind have held forth in a tyrannic league with the ice king and the north wind. But the weather man has come to the rescue, and with his prophecies of warmer weather. after the last lingering cold of this morning he calls upon himself the blessings of poor mortals who have shivered and shaken in the tumultuous winds of the past few days.
 He has not promised just how long this respite will last the weather man has not But at any rate. gambol in the balminess of Indian summer, if only for a few days. will help some.

NO WHISKEY PRESCRIBED
 BY LOCAL PHYSICIANS

Evidently the physicians of Mont gomery have had no occasion to pre- scribe whiskey for their patients du- ring the month of January. for there is no' single prescription on file in tbe Probate Ohace of Montgomery County, as provided for by the general prohibition law.
 But, another thought suggests itself. Perhaps with the Knowledge of im- pending prohibition, every resident of the city laid in a good supply of Tick CT" for medical purposes only, you un- derstand. of course, and when the physician prescribed the order was forthcoming at home.
 Whether or not druggists of Mont gomery have supplied alcohol for any purpose whatevef. could not be ascer- tafned. There are no @records to that effect at the Probate Office, as there should be under the, provisions of the Jaw,

SKATING QUESTION
COITNCILNEEN DISCUSSED QUESTION
 AT MEETING LAST NIGHT.
Having No Solution st Hand the Matt
 ter Was Referred to the Committee on

Police.
 Skating on the sidewalks of the city provoked lot of discussion at the meeting of the City Council Monday night. the question finally being sent to the Committee on Police to be re- ported at the next regular meeting. Meanwhile the order from Mayor Teague to the Chief of Police prohibit ing the practice, holds good.
 Half the Aldermen present had some thing to say on the subject and each looked at the matter in Q different light Solution after solution was sug- Rested. but none met general approval. :. In the early part of the meeting there were many citizens present who had come up to see how the matter would go. but the skating matter did not come up until next to the last. presented and the crowd got tired waiting and went home
 An ordinance was introduced that prohibited skating on the sidewalks by any persons who were over 15 years old. The age limit was then discussed at some length until an amendment was suggested, that prohibited the practice on any sidewalk except those beyond the fire limits This, too, had its ad- yocates and opponents and was finally dropped. Then 1t was suggested that only the business part of the city, be governed by the sidewalk ordinance, but the suggestion provoked state ment that the ordinance was mainly for the 'aprotection" of elderly persons, who wished to walk about in the res- idence section .e~
 Mayor Teague said Monday afternoon in speaking of the matter, that he was entirely in sympathy with the wishes of the children, but that there was an ordinance on the statutes that prohib- tied coasting on the sidewalks by per sons on any kind of vehicle, toy or not, and that he was sworn to see that the ordinances were enforced and that he was going to do so. He said many persons had complained about the Yio- lation of this ordinance and therefore he had called the attention of the Chief of Police to the subject as was his duty.
 The main complaint that has been made is about negroes, who have abused the lenieney of the officials, about allowing the skating. One of the Aldermen said that a few days ago, as he was passing one of the schools ne saw two half-grown negroes delib- erately coast through a crowd of little white children, endangering the lives of the children in most reckless man ner. The blame, however, is not laid entirely on the negroes, for some white boys have abused the prilivege, too, and made walking on ceEtaIn streets of the city exceedingly unpleasant for elderly persons.
 The general impression is that the Police Committee will present the mat ter to the policemen to be acted on by the officers al their own discretion in all cases and that the question will be officially dropped Cases of gross vio- lation will be prosecuted no matter if inc offenders are white or black and disregard for the comfort and safety of pedestrians, win. be punished se- Rerely.
