between that OF a snail and an OK.
Inasmuch as the street and sidewalk

nent and permanent monuments to- the
Kilby administration. IL mas also been
suggested that the celebration be
turned into kind Of tribute to "Marse

By the time the paving contract Is
completed, the so-called "Appian Way

completed. and another feature Of the
celebration as suggested is that there
be an automobile race from the begin

w. Kent and Miss Pearl Irene Gross
were married yesterday afternoon. Rev

They will leave this afternoon for
Birmingham to visit relatives of the
bride.
There is q tinge of romance to this
marriage. For some wears. Mr.. Kent
was resident Of Atlanta, the home Of
his bride. During his stay In that city
he became acquainted with Miss Gross.
A friendship sprang up which quickly
ripened into love. Some time ago Mr.
Kent moved to Roanoke. Miss Gross
left her home. presumably to visit an
uncle in Birmingham. She was met at
Opelika by Mr.. Kent and they came to
this city and we're married.

her daughter. Mrs. j. r. Caldwell, in

Mrs. Weathers is survived by her
husband. thre daughters. Mrs Caldwell.
of Gadsden: Mrs. Poser. of Savannah,
and Mrs. Landlord of Birmingham; and
three sons. Messrs Leonard. Alonzo
and Frank weathers. OF this city.
Another chapter was added to the
controversy between Mrs. J. b. Gill;

tie daughter Of Mr.. Saunders and grand
child of Mrs Gilmore. yesterday after
noon when Mr.. and Mrs. Saunders were
cited to appear In police court this
morning to answer charges OF cruel
treatment of the child The warrants
for Mr.. and Mrs. Saunders were sworn
out by Mrs. Gilmore. whose charge was
not sustained by the court.
Some time ago Mr. Saunders insti-
tuted habeas corpus proceedings before
Chancellor Whiteside for the possession
Of the child. which had gone to reside
with its grandmother. Mrs. Gilmore.
Upon trial the child was awarded to
the custody of its father.
