The bull was up in moment; and,
before the medical man could shoot,
he had thrown the younger German

out of him as he lay on the carcass
of the tusker. There was no outcry,

SPEAKS ATBREWTON
sTEvENs AND Fits ADDRESSES
AUDIENCE.


prewton, oct. s.---(Special } Before
Al audience OF fully 500 citisens Of Es-
Gambia County last night, Hon. Thomas
n Stevens Of Mobile. a leading OPP
ponent of the constitutional amend1
ment delivered one Of the most logical
addresses that has been presented in
this locality on matters pertaining to
the Constitution.
The audience was mixed and the adj
vocates OF the amendment as well as
the opponents had their feast. for W.
c. Fits. also of Mobile. who was In
attendance on the Circuit Court now
IN session here. made an enthusiastic
speech In support Of the measure.
There was liberal applause on both
sides and both speakers seemed to
get approval at different points from
the same crowd.
Mr.. Stevens discussed the amendment
earnestly. admitting that prohibition
might prove to be the best thing for
the state. but insisting that until the
experiment IL absolutely proven sue
cess In the cities as well as the rural
precincts. the people should be satisfied
with the most drastic prohibition laws
that any State ever had.
When Mr.. Fits arose to make reply
he launched forth into a criticism Of
Mr.. Stevens for being a bachelor. and
decuared that Mr.. Stevens was no man
to Judge Of the sanctity Of the home.
Mr.. Stevens had called attention to
the serious danger contained In Sec
tion of the amendment, which he
declared that Mr.. Stevens was no man
to open the homes of probably inno-
cent persons to prying and fee-grab-
hing officers.
Mr.. Fits charged that 1t is whiskey
or no whiskey and intimated that all
on the opposition side of the amend
ment are arguing for whiskey. He
specially criticised Professor Wyman
and Senator Moody of Tuscaloosa, and
paid many compliments to the ladies
who made q considerable portion of the
audience.
Mr.. Stevens. in his rejoinder. with
feeling declared that 1t was the under
standing of the committee that the de-
bate was to be conducted without jest
He took Mr.. Fits to task for trying
TO be funny and said that he talked
about ever ything but the amendment,
which was the topic of the evening.
He believed that personalities should
play no part In q matter Of this kind
and said that the style of the dis
course implied by his opponent was,
in his opinion, disrespectful to the au-
dience and a reflection on the intelli-
gence of the county.
Mr. Pitts had declared that Mr.. Ste
vens stood for different laws for coun-
try and cities This aroused the feel
ing of the anti-amendment orator who
denied that his position was such and
characterized the method as unfair and
of trying to prejudice the rural COM
+ munities against the cities.

Recently the city Of Jasper issued
bonds for the purpose of building
high school. The money is on deposit
in the bank for this purpose, but as yet
no steps have been taken towards be-
ginning the work of construction of the
building.
The reason for the delay is not
known, but IL is supposed to be some
hitch in securing the land upon which
to build. Academy Hill is the site
unanimously chosen by signed petition
of Jasper citizens for this purpose. The
aJsper Land Company, of which l.. B.
Musgrave is president, owns this propA
erty and Mr.. Musgrave is willing to
donate this land for the location of the
high school.
Will Haynes of aJsper. was awarded
a verdict against the Northern Ala
bama Railroad by the jury In the Cir
ciut Court at Double Springs last week.
While braking for the railroad COM
pany about two years ago, he Jumped
from his train to the platform at Haley
Vile, slipped on account OF the plat
form being wet, and fell backward
between the freight cars. losing one of
his legs by having 1t run over and
crushed below the knee SO badly that
It had to be amputated. He later had
to have It amputated above the knee.
The trial began Thursday and con-
tinued through Friday and the jury
rendered a verdict Of $500 in favor OF
Haynes.
