Postmaster Dimmick Is
 Back from Capital.
NO BASIS FOR MANY RUM0RS
No Tangible Foundation to Rumors
 of Changes.
p..s-..t~r Gives AS His Opinion That There Is Nothing in the TaIk of New Dynasty of
 Refereed0m.

Aecordine to Postmaster J. r. Dfm- ..,,-L vho returned to Montgomery yesterday morning, after taip whlcn included in its itinerary, the nationai capital, the mooted revolution Tn the Repubiican situation in Alabama Is as \ c,osed book. as far as he could deter mine. with no definite shape to the many rumors, prevalent as to radical changes
 MT. pimmick thinks affairs are more than likely to run along as they nave ana gives, as his opinion of the talk relative to changes, that 1t Is mere ly the speculation that comes with the beginning of each new administration
 The visit of the Montgomery post master to Washington. where he stop ped for only two days partook almost wholly of the nature of pleasure trip. rather than for business, he says, and he delved but little into political talk.
 T made no effort" he says, to go in- to political talk or political prospects. and am not qualified to speak of any of the rumors relative to changes in the Republican administration. In Ala bsma.
 However. I give as my judgment" he ventured when questioned, that there will be no radical change in af- fairs. There is at the capital the usual speculation that Is rife at the begin ming of each new administration. but it Is mostly speculation. The fact that most of the rumers, which have reach ed Alabama, have no tangible founda- ton, so far as can be seen, leads me to believe, that there will be no change. or, at least. no radical change. A few minor changes may result, of course, as is usual at the first of a new re- girne, but none that will affect or in- ferest. all of Alabama and none, that could be seen. relative 70 Montgomery.
 Mir. Dimmick gives as his Judgment. which founded upon a knowledge of things political, which was gleaned be- fore hls trip to Washington. that there Is nothing to the talk of a npw dynasty in referee-dom. Neither. he thinks. is the rumor of the installation of a bu- reau of business men as advisers, such as came forth from Washington, of tangible shape.
 "But talk as from my judgment, solely" he said. There is nothing to be learned at Washington. and, indeed. I made no effort to learn of political things being on a trip of pleasure, and in Washington for only a few days"
 Mir. Dimick stated that he had no knowledge of the rumored prospect of an abolition of the referee system. and 8 return to the old regime in which the national committeeman was the ad. wiser of the powers at Washington.
 Imediately upon his return. MT. Dim. mick dfved into the work at the post offce and was busy throughout the first day of his homecoming with ciear IT. ing his desk Of the accumulation of duties.

Tho sssrsi si prlzs Whaling Pastry.

Fourtssn prizes (nsariy all of them 6fsts)e )eut of fifteen entrjss of cakes and fine pastry is record that any woman might envy. This was the showing made recently by Mrs. J. H. Chastain, 7oo 8. Boulevard, Atlanta, Ca, at the Georgia State Fair. Her explanation of her sue cess is decidedly interesting; she writes "I entered nine cakes and six pies at the Georgia State Fair, Atlanta, Ca.- won eight first premiums on cake. three first premiums and two seconds on pies. also first premium on general display. I attribute my success in cake making altogether to using coTToLENE and not hutter.'
 Mrs. Chastain is the wife Of the Master Mechanic of the Western & Atlantic R R., and enjoys high local reputation for her fine cooking. Not only does she use COTTOLENE in making cakes or crusts, and other pastry; but for frying chicken, fish, etc, che finds it unequal1ed. For oyer nine years she has not had a pound of lard in her house, using coTTo1ENE exclusively.

Given Two Six Month
 Sentences.
DENIES MOST SERIOUS CHARGE
Says Wife Was in House of Own
 Accord.
The Police Charged That He Was Guilty of vaErancy and of Car rying Concealed and Dead
 Iy Weapons. r

John Davenport. the white man who was arrested Saturday night by the po- lice, charged with carrying concealed weapons and being vaSrant. and technically charged with violating Sec ton 621O of the State Code, was sent enced to serve six months on the chain gang for vagrancy and six months for carrying the pistol, when he was tried before Recorder Baber in Police Court Monday evening.
 The case against Davenport was worked up by Detectives Jackson and Smith, the arrest being made by Po- licemen Hammond and Patrick. who found Davenport in a house of alleged ill-repute, with his wife and child. This fact was strongly pushed against him in police court. Letters were found on him in which 1t was stated that his wife had sent him money; also a let ter from him to his wife telling her to make all the money she could.
 The police firmly believed that Da- venport has been commercializing his wife and Introduced, as witnesses. per sons who testified that he said in their presence things of an un-printabie na- ture.
 Davenport, when he was put on the stand to testify for himself, made a good impression. He said that for h. nancial reasons he had had to leave the town in Georgia where his Wife was staying, to get work. and that while he was away she got in bad company. but because of their baby boy, a child five years old. he had been trying to get his wife back and make her stay at home, for the boys sake. He said he came here three weeks ago, the first time to try to get her to go home, but she refused, and he came back last Friday. bringing the baby in hope. TOT the childs' sake. he could get her away from the place where she Is stay ing. He said he remained at the house of his wife all Friday night: that she was sick and he twas trying to take care of her. but if she had not been. he would have left the place.
 He admitted without protest the charge Of carrying a pistol. but deniec being a yagrant and having accepted or demanded money from his wife' saying the money she had sent was for the baby, when he was out or work. He answered every question put to him in a straightforward manner, but the fact that he was seen at the place where his wife is: that in one Of his letters he calls his mother-in-l law an unmentionable name. and states thal he should fhave killed her. and also that he has been under arrest for mis- treatment of his wife. all counted too heavily against his testimony Tor himself, and the judge, going on the testimony presented to him, meted out the already mentioned sentence TOT punishment.
