COLLEGE WOMEN
ARE COMMENDED
MAKE BEST WIVES AND ARE
ALL SUCCESSFUL
President of Bryn Mawr College Says
. Members of Her Sex Prove
Superior in Many
Ways
Try Associated Press.1

CINCINNATI, Oct. 2S.-The college
woman is the better equipped to serve
in the home and for the uplift of hu-
manity, according to the consensus of
opinion shown in the discussions of the
annual convention of the Association
of Collegiate Alumnae in session here.
This organization is composed en-
tirely of college women from all parts
of the country who are graduates of
the twenty-four women's colleges.
Miss NJ Cary Thomas, president off
Bryn Mawr college, chairman of n
committee that has taken statistics or
college women in the United States,
reports that when men and women arc
educated together there is no greater
number of marriages than when the
sexes are educated separately; that 778
out of 1000 college women enjoy ex-
cellent health; only eight college NO
men out of 1000 have i'll health; that
the health of women improves While
in college; that college women in gem
eral have better health than women
who do not attend college,; that COL
lege women marry stronger men and
choose more wisely, selecting men of
intelligence with incomes above the
average; that one-third of the hus-
bands of college women have higher
salaries on the average than the hus-
bands of women who have never at
tended college.
AS to bearing children Miss Thomas
declared that college women had 3 6-10
children, while non-college women had
$40, so college women were in the
lead slightly, although they married
later. in life than women who never
attended college.

In order that those interested in De
Lara's case may be informed of the
charges against him, The Herald has
procured an exact copy of the 'ev-
dence" against him, and upon which
his arrest is predicated Not a single
change in photography, punctuation
or form has been made in the text as
it was given out by Inspector Ridgway.
Following is the statement in full:

In re Oct. 49, 1909.
Inspector A. c. Ridgway.

a speech in regards to what he calls the
socialist meeting, and he tells the ignorant
Mexicans that stand around there and lis
tens to him that we must overthrow this
government and the capitalists, and the only
way they can do it is to pick up the arms

government.

the quotations.
Denies Legality of Arrest
IT believe the statement of L. A. Rice
shows that he has greater interest in
the arrest and deportation of De Lara
than that usually taken by an officer
of the law. He admits that the origi-
nal arrest was made, not with a view
to bringing an offender to justice but
in order to hold him against law and
Americanism in order that he might
be turned over to other authorities for
deportation. He shows by his answers
that he has followed De Lara-hound-
ed, if you care to use plain language
for three years or more. Rico shows
too intimate a knowledge of De Lara
and his movements for the past three
years. Rico admitted on the witness
stand that he had been on the police
force since January. 1907, although he
seems to know all the movements of
De Lara since September, 1906. If
Rico's interest is only that of a police
man he seems to be more diligent than
any other officer 1 have ever known,
especially in finding out the past his
tory of peaceable, laW-abiding resi-
dents.
lone thing about the statement has
struck me as peculiar, to say the least.
The statement is not sworn to at all.
In all courts it is the practice to have
information, ase they are called,
upon which warrants are issued, sworn
to before some person qualified to take
and record an oath or affirmation.
wonder how long a judge in any court
Of record would allow an information
to stand which was not sworn to? If
such a procedure as that taken in De
Lara's case were general any person
who has feeling against another per-
son could go to the district attorney
and make a simple statement that Mr..
So-and-SO is guilty Of murder. Mr. So
and-SO could be arrested and held in
jail for an indefinite time, without BAIL
and put to a great expense making a
defense, without being in the least
guilty of any crime.
Damage Suit Only Redress
1.-THE person making such a statement
would suffer no inconvenience at all
and the only redress the unjustly ac-
cused man would have is through a
long, tedious damage suit in the courts.
Fortunately, the procedure in courts of
record is not thus. 1t is not legal to
cast a man into prison without some
! sworn statement and some real evil
dence upon which to base an accusa-
tion.
I'VE believe that the very informa-
tion upon which De Laras arrest was
made is not only incorrect, but is
illegal and faulty, and will not stand
the test of a judges scrutiny Certain
it is to us that the information should
have been sworn to in the usual man

PLAN BOOSTER MEETING
MONTGOMERY BUSINESS MEN TO
 GATHER AT COMMERCIAL CLUB.
Will Discuss Proposition and Possf- bflity of Advertising City During the Days of the Annual
 State Fair.

Breaking down the boundaries of club membership. big boosting of Montgomery business men will be held at the Commercial Club rooms tonight at o'clock under the auspices of the club.
 The idea was launched at a meeting of the board of directors of the club last night and was instigated by the proximity of the agricultural fair, which, in the opinion of the Commer- cial Club. offers excellent opportunity for the advertisement of Montgom- cry.
 Secretary Hyman will talk to the business men on plans for boosting business during the fair. He believes that the presence of thousands of vts- itors to the city during the week of the fair will afford a great opportun- ity for the exploitation of Montgom- eryss commerce and industries and the possibility of increasing both.
 The board of directors authorized the purchase of a thousand of the new road maps drawn by J. T. Bullen. county engineer. The maps will be furnished to farmers in the Middle West, affording them tangible idea of Montgomery county's good roads and the value of land In the county.

 This is an unusual opportunity for the women of Montgomery to study. domestic science taught by an author ity on her art and one of the greatest teacher of cook lore in che country. l. Every woman attending this course will receive lesson sheets. printed re- cipes showing how Mrs- Hitler attains her results. They are recipes obtain able in no other way nor from any other source and collection of these recipes will be of great value. They cannot be purchased, and have been tested and tried and are better than any of their kind. A set or Mrs. Killers recipes which The Advertiser will give away is a Kitchen treasure beyond value.
 It is essential that every one at- tend Mrs Hilier's lectures. She teaches not only the theoretical but also the practical side of cooking and the hy- gienic and economic side. She will demonstrate all ranges of cooking and will show especially the full nurses course in sick room cooking. as well as cooking that applies only to the chef or Maitre d'hotel.
 It will rebound to the credit and value of every woman In this city to attend Mrs. Hiller's lectures. Already Montgomery women have asked for special days for their clubs and her visit to this city at the sore instigation of The Advertiser has created much en- thusiasm in all club and social cir- cles.
 But Mrs. Hitler does not limit her teachings to milady who has her retinue Of servants. Her work em- braces scope that takes in the wife of the humbly laborer. Mrs Hitler shows how cookies and cakes may be baked equally as nutritious and pala- table in inverted dinner bucket covers as in especially constructed cookie and cake pans. She leaves nothing to the imagination and asks that skeptics at- tend. She shows you how to cook. ex- plains each move as she goes along and. more to the point, tells why each move is made and then convinces you against your own possible prejudices giving each one a generous sample Of what she prepares, and asks nothing but your candid opinion.
 She has spent several years in de- signing and originating new and use- fuI articles to be used in the kitchen that the work Is no longer drudgery, but a pleasure for herself as well as a profitable pastime for ones family. Tn her lecture this afternoon she will explain all the necessary utensils in detail from the kitchen In the simple home to the one in the most elaborate one.

DEFENDERS IN COLBERT
WEATHERLY AND ALMON SPEAK
 IN TUSCUMBIA.
Former Tells Voters to Pray over Amendment Question--Latter De- nies Any Interest of Brew-
 CTS fin Campaign.

Tuscumbia, Oct. 1S.-(SpeciaIl- James Weatherly of Birmingham, and Ed B. Almon of this city, former judge of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit. ad- dressed four hundred men at the court house in Tuscumbia this morning, against the adoption of the prohibition amendment.
 The courtroom was comfortably fiH- ed. It being the first day of Criminal Court, the assemblage was composed of voters from all parts of Colbert county.
 After empanelling the juries, the presiding judge, Charles P. Aimon, an- nounced that an opportunity would be given speakers opposing the amend ment to present their side of the question, as he had given A. H. Car michael the opportunity two weeks before to discuss the pro-amendment side. He further stated that the is- sue was one of vital importance to the people of the State. and voters ought to hear both sides of the ques- tion before forming an opinion.
 MT. Weatherly in a speech of more than an hour discussed the Carmich- ael and Fuller bills and the danger that threatened the State. should the amendment be adopted. He was giv- en respectful hearing, and his strong points were applauded at the conclus- ion of his speech, when he admonish- ed his hearers to pray over the ques- tion as suggested by Rev. D. c. Brans- combe, a Methodist minister. in a re- cent speech at Tuscaloosa, and after making up their minds to vote against the amendment, to go out upon the streets and state their position. and then. if charged with being whiskey- heads, to tell the party making the charge that he is liar. The applause was loud.
 Mfr. Weatherly was followed by Judge Ed Almon, who was greeted with cheers. He read an editorial from The Leighton News, of this county, published in its Issue of last Friday, the day before Judge Almon addressed the voters of Leighton against the amendment which was as follows:
 "By all means go to hear the anti amendment orators tomorrow. but re- member they are paid agents of the brewers. distillers and liquor million aires, who are sending them out, pay ing their expenses and doubtless a big salary besides"
 Judge Almon said that he had stat ed to the people of Leighton Saturday afternoon that the statement is a falsehood and that he again desired to denounce the charge as infamously false. that he had not received a pen ny from any source, expected no pay, that he was simply making a few speeches in his home county because be

feit that the adoption of the amend ,ment was a menace to the liberties of his people. and that large number of his friends had besought him to raise his voice against the iniquitious meas ure.
 The speaker then entered into a dIs- cussion of what he termed the most monstrous and nefarious measure that had been forced upon the people to de- eide since 1875. when carpet baggers and scala ways had been driven from the confines of Alabama. He paid his respects to Rev. Brooks Lawrence, Governor Conner and Judge weakley, and euiogized the Confederate soldier and the old guard The crowd was in thorough sympathy with the speak CT.
 Rev. Ezra F. Hawkins, pastor of the First Methodist Church, delivered an amendment sermon at country church four miles west of Tuscumbia yesterday afternoon. where he was greeted by a large congregation. At who would vote for the amendment were ask ed to come forward and shake the minister's hand and sign a pledge to vote for the amendment. The re- sponse was almost unanimous. Close observers of the situation in Colbert county place the majority against the amendment at 25O to 300, estimating the vote cast at HOO.

 Two Of the numbers are those of for eign actors. both acrobatic feats of a high order. Tony Wilson and Mile. Heloise. billed as European acrobats and Tramplfn experts present an in- genious bit, entailing some of the most difficult horizontal bar performances ever seen in Montgomery. Beneath the horizontal bar is a springing bed, a new apparatus which enables the per- formance of flights that seem to defy all laws of gravity.
 The second of the foreign bills is that of the Amoros sisters, two shapely young women with the air of gay Farce; one a juggler, the other a tra- pezc performer. and both singers and dancers. Thc work is good. and the naive manner of its enactment Is rend- cred the more enjoyable. The trapeze sister especially performs stunts that are new.
