HOW TENTS ARE SET
 LIP FOR BIC CIRCUS.

It takes a regiment of laboring men to
 set up the Great Sells-F'loto white city,
 commonly called tents, in less than three
 hours, which is pronounced remarkable
 by those who have watched them The
 building and tearing down of circus
 city like this is one of the most interest
 ing sights in the world America is the
 great circus country because no where
 else on the globe are the people so well
 supplied with money.
 The seal of approval has been placed upon this big tented enterprise in all of the big cities and those who had never witnessed the performance of the Armour
 Grays will be astonished.
 The circus features are all big hits, especially the Rhoda Royal menage horses the great Nelson troupe, and the many acts to completely i'll the hree rings continuously during the performance. The grand free street parade of the Sels-Floto shows will traverse the pri-,- cipal thoroughfares of this city, and al ready points of vantage are being en- gagged by those who are anxious to wit
 ness the gorgeous pageant so highly praised in other cities. The parade Is nearly two miles long.
 Bigger and better than ever, the Sells Floto circus will soon be with us. Every department has been enlarged. Five hun dred arenic performers; over 100 cages
 contain the m,llion-dollar zoo, and the
 show is completely filled with new and absolutely different novelties The Sells Floto shows consolidated is truly a mammoth institution. When one has seen it from end to end. outside and inside, and has forrned an inventory of what he has seen and learned for a very nominal fee, how much real pleasure and benefit 1t has been. he can easily understand why big three-rlng circus of the high standard of the Sells-Floto shows occu- pies the enviable position in the amuse- ment world that 1t does.

 The facts in the case are simply as fol- lows: In a speech at Hartselle on the morning of October IS, I was paying my respects to the crowd who are beratlng the political parsons and the churches that would adopt the policy suggested by someone that they shut off their feed" I stated that | would not occupy a subsidized pulpit under any circum- stances; that someone had hinted to me that I had better keep quiet on the sub feet of constitutional prohibitions; but that I could not be stopped by anyone; and that so far as I knew I had only seven members against the amendment; and so far as I was concerned l was willing to strain a point and give them letters at the next service.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Rev. Yates Makes Statement.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Tn vour issue of October 19 there is an article, 'sChurch Loses Strong Member Invited Out by Pastor Because the Mem Der Differed From Him on Political Is- sue" And in the issue of October 20 you give the matter an editorial write up, in which you make the following statement: .The pastor of the Central Baptist church did by his intolerance and personalism, drive from the membership a worthy member and citizen. MT Tidwells sole offense it seems consisted in his opposi- ton to the amendment. The pastor has disclosed that he hoped all opponents to the amendment would take their letters out of the church.
 These statements are misleading, and

I have always entdAained high regard. I stated that T would be glad to give the amendment" I stated that 1 did not except on the conditions stated above. He then asked me if he had ever ex- pressed an objection to my speaking on the subject. l answered no; and that 1 would be very sorry, indeed, to have him withdraw. He said that he would ask for letter. and did so in writing at the next service. l then expressed my regrets as did his brother. MT. John c. Tidwell. aBut he insisted that the letter be granted, and it was done. Was he in any way driven out?"
 This is the sum and substance of the whole matter. MT. Tidwell is still my friend, and l can only say that he acted too hastily Fifty or more persons pres ent would testify to the above; and MT. Brock, the pastor of the Central Meth odist church, was also present, and in the enclosed note testifies to the above. Yours very truly, G. l.. YATES.
 l was present at the time the Rev C.. L. Yates made the remarks referred to above and wish to testify to the fact that he has given the words then used. To use these words out of connection with the remedy proposed for driving the political parsons back to their pulpits, would be a perversion of the spirit and intent of his words. Very truly,
