A Disgusting Affair.

Last Wednesday night while asleep at
the railroad station "Bill" Cole, well
known character in this community, was
set upon and shamelully ill-treated by
two or three parties whose fear of the law,
if not sense OF decency, should have
impelled them to desist from such de-
testable practices. With a pair of scis-
sors they cut his hair and whiskers in a
shocking manner and then poured red
ink over his head, making him appear
like a fright. The victim reported to the
authorities and Constable Eden Of the
Township made information before Es-
auire Randall charging assault and bat
cry against two parties who we're given
a hearing on Friday night. One of the
young men pleaded guilty and the JUS
tice fined him fifteen dollars and one. hall
the costs. The other denied his guilt and
was bound over IN the sum of S400 for his
appearance at the next quarter sessions
court. We withhold names out of re-
spect for the parents and families, who
are among our most worthy citizens.
Cole, as everybody in this section
knows, is a harmless, inoffensive fellow,
who usually minds his own business and
for whom the people generally have a
kindly feeling, but who is often made to
suffer gross indignities at the hands oI
thoughtless boys, and some older ones
who display far less sense Lnd decency
tLan their unfortunate victim. Such
lawless practices should be most effectu'
allv suuelched.

DENSON SPEAKS
 FOR AMENDMENT
TALLAPoOSA COUNTY AND FOR MFR JUSTICE GIVES REASONS FOR PUTTING PROHIBITION IN TO CONSTITUTION.

Dadeville, September Especial. 1.-The prohibition fight has been opened in this county by two very strong sermons at the Methodist church yesterday by Rev. H. M. Stevenson pastor of this church, and by stirring address on constitution al prohibition by Judge Denson, ex-su- preme court justice, today. Judge Den son had a large audience, this being opening day of the fall term of the Talla- poosa circuit court and the Tallapoosa Good Roads association having meeting today added to the crowd.
 Judge Denson dealt with the amend ment from legal standpoint, asserting that though 1t be question for legislative action still other legislative matters have been put in the constitution, citing the lottery section. Answering the charge that il might cause the searching of homes he stated that already we had pro- vision made for such searchings when the

Joke on Governor.

A capitol attache tells this good story regarding the desire of the governor to see the prohibition laws enforced: '.The other day one of the young men in the capitol made the assertion-or Is reported to have made it-that the saloons of Montgomery had opened again. The gov- ernor sent for the young man and asked him how he knew this, and what he knew. Just what the answer was is not recorded, but the story Is well authenti- cated nevertheless. The joke is on the fellow who is said to have made the re- mark"
 Among the delegations for friends here this week already is one headed by former Speaker A. M. Tunstall, in the interest ol Thomas E. Knight for the supreme court vacancy. MT. Tunstall said that there were many friends of this prominent young fellow coming to help him out. Il Is anticipated that the appointment tc fill all the vacancies will be made by the end of the week.

New Boat, "Montgomery."

The announcement by the Central of Georgia railway company and the Ocean Steamship company that a new boat now being built will be named the "City of Montgomery', has aroused much interest. For years a City of Birmingham ran on this line, but one dark night she was wrecked by derelict in the Philadelphia harbor, since which time no city in Ala hama has been represented on this line. The new Montgomery" will be one of the finest boats in the coastwise service, embodyng all the best that can be had in seagoing craft It will be followed by a movement to develop this line for Alabama trade to the east, already very popular.
 Tn this connection it is interesting to note that there Is talk of an effort to have another "City of Birmingham on this route. officers of the company re- member the old boat with much pride, and would not be averse to reviving the name, in the face of the fact that Bir- mingham is giving a great lot of travel this way all the time. A recent trip of the "City of Savannah" the handsome new boat of the line, carried a dozen Birmingham people bound east to buy goods, go to school, see New York, and have good time in other ways. This goes well with the expressed purpose of the company to greatly increase the ser vice.

There will be a meeting of the boar of trade on Wednesday, at which time the question of the wagon yard will probably be taken up.
 The games between Bessemer and Grasselli to determine the winner of the pennant will be played next Thurs day, Friday and Saturday at West End park in Birmingham. It has not been decided when the other two will be played, but it will probably be at once, as both teams are anxious to determine who shall fly the rag.

The title of the entertainment is to be "The Harvest Moon Festival" Tab leaux Vivant The Man From Mars, a quartet, a Gipsy fortune teller and many other amusing and entertaining features are being planned.
 The last service in the old Presby- terian church will be held on next Sun. day, as the new building Is practical ly ready for occupancy. The first ser- vices in the new building will be very interesting and will probably draw a large congregation.
 The Culpepper revival will continue through the week and 1t is expected to draw as large crowds as heretofore.

Fire Damages Store.

The store of Landh am Brothers, gen. eral merchandise. on West Fifteenth street. was partially destroyed by fire which started about 9:30 o'clock to- night entailing a loss which will range between $5ooo and s10.o00.
 A large stock of both dry goods and clothing valued at about $16,0OO was carried, the clothing stock being par ticularly damaged by water.
 It Is thought that the fire started from a gas light in the window, as it was first noticed in the front of the building. The exact loss cannot as yet be estimated but 1t will be fully covered by insurance.
