There was once a man who sat in
that seat of the mighty the mayor of
St. Louis is privileged to occupy. A
deadlock existed between the respon-
sible officials of the city and the com
pany which furnished light in the dark
places of the town. Many citizens
were extremely perturbed. They had
become so dependent upon artificial
illumination that to them all was dark
without it. Not so this man. Meadow,
grove and stream, the earth and every
common sight to him did seem ap-
pareled with celestial light. He went
his way in joyous communion with
that nature which is the great mother
of us all. Most of all did he queen
OF the night rejoice him. and his bes-
ON swelled rs he watched the silver
cycle of each month become her gold
en- shield. Smoke might bedim, sky
scrapers intervene. the gratings of
barred windows shut out heaven, but
to him who sees with the inward eye
stone walls do not prison make nor
iron bars cage. And so when a COM
mittee waited upon him in protest
against the city's unlighted condition
he gently observed. well, We got a

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Upon the appearance of the October
reports it was found that a large number
of the foot ball squad were deficient and
therefore Ineligible to play on the team.
This circumstance causes the cancellng
of the three games which were sched-
uled for November.
brief summary of the season and of
the individual playing will perhaps give
the outside some idea of what NJ. H. S.
has done in the four games which she
has played.
First of all there is a large amount of
praise due to Coach Stewart who has
labored, at times under very discuraging
circumstances. But he has stayed by the
team and made it what it was.
Captain Pond has been tower of
strength in the line at right tackle. He
has always been ready for every play
directed to his place in the line.
Tulley has been a plucky player at
right end. Cook was steady player at
right guard. Gregory was also steady
and consistent player at right guard.
He has the weight and he used it effect.
lively througout the season.
Although Laque was only able to play
two games, he proved a good guard.
Manager Benedict played his usual
game at center, passing the ball steadily,
and accurately.
Shea proved steady, consistent play.
er at left guard
Gregory played at left tackle when not
at right guard and proved as good in
that position.
Foote showed excellent tactics at left
end. He showed ability to handle pas.
ses to perfection and was an excellent
tackler.
M. Huntley was a good man to handle
the team. He was an excellent quarter
back, and knew just when to use his
plays to advantage.
Stems played both lin the backfield
and at end and in both places proved an
excellent player.
w. Huntley proved star in his posi-
ZION at lett-halt. bis playing was al.
ways consistent. He is good runner.
which helped him to make long gains.
7. Burns at full-back played an excel
lent game. He hit the line hard and
could always be depended upon for a
gain He also made many accurate for
ward passes.
II. Burns was a star player at right
half. He was always ground gamer
as well as an excellent defensive.
ID. Hamilton and G. Hamilton only
played the Rutland game, but both
showed excellent form. Witherell also
played in only one game and proved
good player.
Taking everything into consideration,
the foot ball season Of 1909 has been a
success. Out of four games played, we
have won two. We have fifty zones
points 10 our credit while the opponent
have twenty eight.
Following is the summary:

YorresDondent Says Strongest Opposa-

 Rockford, Ala, Sept. 1S 1s0s. Editor The Advertiser:
 Your correspondent has taken some pains to ascertain the sentiment or tne voters in different parts of the county relative to the prohibition amendment and from reliable information. 1t IS safe to predict that the county will go over whelmingiy against 1t.
 It Will be rememb cred that Coosa was the first county to hold an election under the local option law, ana tnere was cast about e32 votes; 500 of them was for prohibition, and about lS2 the present time. the amendment would be defeated almost two to one.
 And what is surprising, Is the strong opposition among the farmers to the Governor Conner are depending upon scheme" from an everlasting defeat. so far as Coosa Is concerned, they are reckoning without their hosts" The people here resent the Idea of import ing q man like Lawrence from Ohio. . State that allows white and negro chil- dren to attend school side by side, to come down here and dictate how they shall vote. It is . reflection upon their intelligence. and unless a revolution sets Tn and makes a change, q decided majority will be cast against tt. When SeSAssy W Sht aty hhS ANSeA option election two years ago, every- one appeared to be well satisfied. But the persistent agitation of this ques- tion has brought about . remarkable change in the peoples minds. and today the temperance cause has suffered by over-zenlous advocates, and political greed for office. In. speaking of the statutory laws already passed on pro- hibttion. prominent farmer and pro- hibitionist said that if these fanatics and political demagogues were allowed to remain in power, the next Legis. iature would pass an act, designating what we shall eat, drink and wear. and said 1t was high time to call a halt to such unjust and unwise legislation. Many of the former followers of Govs ernor Conner in the county are now his bitterest opponents. They say that to put prohibition in the constitution means to perpetuate Comerism for the next four years by electing Judge Weakley to the Governorship.
 Unless all signs fail, Coosa will vote NO" in November. Citizen.
