SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY.
Class Day Exercises Are Very Inter
esting.

Florence, May 1S.-( Especial )-Origi-
nal, unique and altogether charming
were the class day exercises held Mon
day afternoon in the campus of the
Florence University for Women The
class consists of 10 young ladies, all
students of the South ern University of
LAGRANGE, Ga, before that institution
was removed to Florence The class is
pronounced the best that has ever
graduated from the university, the
total average being higher, though the
average age of the young ladies Is less
than any of it's predecessors. Miss
Marie Ziegler of Georgiana, Ala. Miss
Elizabeth Winzerling of British Hon
duras, and Miss Christina Sanders tied
for the highest honors of the class and
the tie was never broken, the young
ladies dividing the honors.
The exercises took place on the cam
pus in front of the east entrance, where
a platform was erected covered with
the class colors, black and gold. The
senior class was escorted to the plat
form by the undergraduates, all bear
ing garlands of mountain laurel and
walking three abreast and singing the
college song, Fair Florence, the Queen
of the Hills" to the tune my own
United States" The undergraduates
were then seated on the right and left
of the platform, with the audience in
front.
The following papers were filed with
bright illusions and witty sallies and
provoked much laughter;

JUDGE WEAKLEY
ADDRESSES LEAGUE
DECLARES TO cLANToN AUDI
ENcE THAT SPECIAL SESSION
WILL REVISE AND STRENGTHEN
PROHIBITION LAWS.

Clanton, May 1s.-(s Special Before
one of the largest crowds that was
ever assembled at the courthouse, the
Temperance league held its first public
meeting last night. The principal
speaker was Judge Samuel D. Weakley
of Birmingham. The meeting was
called to order by the president, Rev.
Francis M Woods, and after the sing
ing of a song by a choir of some 10
voices and prayer Judge L. II. Reynolds
addressed the body on the various
evils of the whisky traffic, which was
followed by the Introduction of Judge
WeakIey by William NJ Adams in a
few and well chosen words. Judge
Weakley was greeted with much APP
plause and after expressing his pleasure
in being with the people handled the
liquor question without gloves. He
gave a graphic description of the man
ner in which the liquor issue had been
realt with in his home county and
how after the hardest kind of fight
they had succeeded in Oh ecking the
violations of the prohibition laws.
He dwelt at length on the means
used by the whisky interests in evad-
ing the laws and using the mails as
means of flooding the prohibition
towns with the whisky literature and
how a law should be enacted by Con-
gress to exclude such literature from
the mails. He gave as an example of
their efforts in stopping this eveil, an
incident happening in his own town;
a in iG IN Ia
South Highlands had received through
the mails from a whisky house liter
allure Offering as q premium for the
purchase of four quarts of whisky
either q pistol, razor or bowie knife.
Judge Weakley Immediately took this
matter up with Senator Johnston with
the result of this literature being elm
mated from the mails. He painted a
picture of what would be the results
of the African. pistol and quart of
Cheap booze" combination. He also
pointed out the necessity of a more
stringent prohibition law which should
be by all means passed at the called
session of the legislature, among these
being a. law giving the authorities
power to destroy the beverages VIII en-.
captured, also to enact a law to close
up and forfeit the license of any busi
ness of whatever kind violating the
prohibition law. Furth ermore to pass
law empowering the thorities to
search any place or business under
strong suspicion, and stated that such
laws would be passed at the next leg
islature, laws that would be condensed
from prohibition laws Of other states
and that he himself would see that
tn ese laws were so framed as to be
without flaw Judge Weakley closed
by urging upon each and every one
helping most in this great fight by
practicing semperance-that he said
was the only sure way.
Judge Weakley was met at the depot
by a large committee and was escorted
to Oak Crest, the home of Solicitor
Adams, where an informal reception
was rendered him.

that the 50-eent box on sale at

is sufficient to cure the worst cases Of

Guiding itching feet. Being flesh
colored and containing no grease, the
presence of poslam on exposed surfaces,
such as the face and hands, Is not

be used in connection with it, as these
irritate and prolong skin troubles
sometimes even causing them.
AS to the experimental package of
