GADSDEN Is PAYING
WELL FOR LIGHTS
RATES HIGHER THAN IN ANY
OTHER CITY IN STATE-COLE-
MANS NARROW ESCAPE FROM
DEATH.

Gadsden, December ESPECIAL AN in
vestigation on the part of the city coun-
Gil has discussed the fact that Gadsden
is paying more for her lights than any
city In Alabama. The present contract
has yet a number of years to run and
it is not likely that any reduction can be
secured unless the growth of the city
calls for general readjustment. The
cost of an arc light in this city is sS4
per annum and this Is said to be nearly
SIS above the average cost of the service
in the various cities of the state.
Through the industrial department of
the Nashville, Chattanooga and st. Louis
railroad, some experts from the agricul-
tural department at Washington will be
brought to this city on December II to
address the farmers of the county in
the hope of increasing interest in stock
raising. Stock raising is assuming an
ever more important relation to general
agriculture and the railroad hopes to
foster the industry in it's territory and
thereby indirectly add to it's own rev.
enues. The Farmers union has been
agitating the subject and it Is hoped
to have a large number of the farmers
on hand to learn of the possibilities of
this branch husbandry.
The Alfalfa Cooperage company has
been sued in the city court of Gadsden
in the sum OF 5000 by VIII Harris, who
claims this amount of damages because
of injuries sustained while working in
the plant of the defendant company.
While at work as an employee of the
company Harris, in October, had his
hand caught in saw and lost the thumb
and fingers of one hand.
While walking down the tracks of the
Louisville and Nashville railroad at the
Ninth street yards Saturday w. r. Cole
man, an employee of the Cole Real Es-
tate company, was caught by a moving
train and thrown a considerable distance
out on the right of way. In some mirac-
ulous manner he was almost uninjured
There was such a heavy fog that neither
the train crew now the victim of the ac-
cident can be blamed. The man was
hurriedly taken to a local hospital but
beyond the dressing of few bruises
needed no attention.
j. Wright. young man of Marshall
county, on Saturday tried to commit sui
eide but because of the fact that he
did not know which side of his body
contained the heart failed of his pur-
pose. He attempted to shoot himself
through the heart but sent the ball
through the right side of the body in
stead of the left. The shot from ~
caliber revolver went clean through him
but there Is still some chance that he
may live. Dependency was the cause.

Protest From China.

Washington December 1.-THE state de-
partment has received the circular note
from the Chinese government relating
the principles involved in the Hardin
situation and invoking the agreement of
1896 between China and the Russo Chi
nese bank creating the Chinese Eastern
railway, to show that the Russian rights
recognized therein were only such as
were natural and necessary to It's bus
mess management and showing that no
political rights were thus transferred to
Russia. China protests that the exercise
of rights of administration at Hardin
and along the Chinese Eastern railway
is also a violation of the principles of
the treaty of Portsmouth.

Governor Back From Hunt,

GOV. b. b. Conner who has been hunt
ing ducks in Mississippi since the prohi-
bition amendment was defeated showed
up at his office in the capitol Monday
morning. wearing a smile that indicated
only the best of humor. Cheerful con-
versation with all who came in. includ-
ing newspaper men, bore out the sue-
gestion that he is taking a happy view
of the situation, whether 1t went his way
not. He spent the day catching up
with the accumulation of mail matter
that lay on his desk, at intervals calling
and consulting with department heads
about the state house.
The report that he had accidentally
shot himself while hunting In Missis-
sippi was treated as a joke by the ex-
ecutive. who trusted that the wish was
not father to the thought. He first heard
of II while eating supper in restau-
rant in Vicksburg. A reporter found
him at the table and told him of the
story. He laughed over it then say
ing that he was thankful that II was
not a fact. The hunt was q success,
+ however. II killed n ducks" said the
governor as he rubbed his hands in re-
membrance of the sport he had enjoyed
