London. Nov. 29.-Mme. Marguerite
Steinheil, recently acquitted at Paris
of the charge of numbering her hus-
band and stepmother, is in London,
having crossed the channel In quest
of protection from alleged persecu-
tion on the part of the French press.
Nine. Stelnheil, who was accompa-
MED by DR.. Mignon, when she ar
rived at Charing Cross station adroit.
ly avoided the shoal of French and
English reporters who had travelled
on same train as Nine. Steinheil and
crossed tho channel to Dover on the
same steamer. She could not escape
the photographers, who made flash
light negatives of her. AS the flash.
lights were set off she turned to the
crowd and asked, Are the photogra-
piers French or English?" adding, IF
they are English they will regret it."
Considering her reputation for ele-
gance her luggage was rather mod
est. She took a cab at the station
and directed the driver to take her
TO the Savoy hotel. This proved to
he a maneuver to dodge the journal
lists, who we're following her in auto
mobiles and all sorts of vehicles. The
recession was a strange one and 1t
startled the passersby.
Nine. Steinheil proceeded to the
Great Central hotel, where her fol
lovers were prevented from entering.
One enterprising correspondent later
had a short interview with her. She
said: 81 have come to England for
protection. The cruelty of the

available, whereupon her sad pilgrim
age started again, ending finally at
the Midland hotel, where a suite of
rooms was arranged. Strict orders
were given that no ono be admitted

besieged all the entrances, believing
that she intended to leave suddenly.

From the Cleveland Press.
 Willis Cobb. the circus man, tells this story:
 Years ago he was travelling through the south with a wagon tent show and the press agent among other glowing accounts of whats coming" announced "a herd of 20 camels from the sandy desert of Arabia
 When the show reached town, instead of 20, there was but one sickly cap3el Some of the country newspapers rai< no attention to this slight discrepancy, but when Cobb entered the office of Georgia country editor he was mad enough to fight
 'I saw your parade, sah." said he 'and you lied to our people. I've a good mind to roast you. Where are your 20 camels you made my paper say you've got in your show"
 "I'll tell you how it was,' explained Cobb. When we passed the swamp on the way here it was full of alligators and without the slightest warning they leaped npon the bank and devoured all but one of the camels. We put up 4 brave fight. but it was of no use"
 The editor gazed at Willis a couple of minutes and then said: You're good one. You ought to be Georgia editor. Come to my house to dinner today. want to introduce my wife to the big gest liar on earth. She'll be sladvo meet you.'

PRESIDENT CRAFT URGES FoRMA- TON OF GOOD ROADS AssocIA- TON IN EVERY couNTY-LET- TIERS SENT TO BOARDS.

The Alabama Good Roads association is, making an active effort to organize county good roads associations in every county in the state and to raise funds to have the proceedings of the last con- vention published in book form. Presi- dent Craft has issued the following let ter to all the probate judges and boards of county commissioners urging them to take action toward organizing. He writes as follows:
 Birmingham, October 29, 1909. Dear Sir-The Alabama Good Roads as- sociation convened in Birmingham De- tober 14 and 15. This meeting was very largely attended by delegates from nearly every county in the state over 600 dele gates registering in attendance.
 "The association as you know is a pa- triotic body of citizens who are engaged in agitating and educating the citizens of Alabama to stop the dreadful waste of money in woodworking and to construct roads along practical business methods.
 "The Alabama Good Roads association adopted strong resolution to continue the agitation, by having every county or ganize county organization, also a res olution was unanimously adopted asking the Board of Revenue and commissioners court of each county to appropriate $10 to help defray the expenses of printing 25,000 copies of the proceedings of the convention containing the able speeches of the road experts on road material and methods of building good roads. It is of the greatest importance that you should know that every county possesses some first-class road material so that your people can have your roads inn proved, this book will contain this infor nation as well as data which will be of great assistance to your county and will instruct you how to construct roads and bridges by the cheapest and best meth ods.
 We hope you will take up the question of appropriating the amount requested and have warrant drawn in the name of the Alabama Good Roads association, and mail the same to J. A. Rountree, Sec- retary, P. O. Box sSe, Birmingham. We also hope that you and your commis sioners court will call a meeting in your county and organize a county good roads aSsoclatlon at once ana serE aSst oI or flcers and proceedings to the headquar ters of the Alabama Good Roads asso- citation, Birmingham.
 Hoping that you will do as requested and that we will have prompt reply from you, we are, very truly,

NEGRO KILLED IN
 ROW AT CHURCH
Goes Into Building at Cliff With Big Pistol and Tries to Dis
 perse Crowd.

Report was received at the sheriff S office late yesterday afternoon of quite an exciting affair which occurred at trouble is about half way between New castle and Mineral Springs, north of Bir- mingham. One negro was shot and in- stantly killed in the affair, which oc- cured at church meeting.
 Cliff is a mining camp maintained by the East Pratt Coal company, and Is largely settled by negroes. It seems that yesterday afternoon a church meeting was in progress when a drunken negro armed with a big revolver. put in his appearance and undertook to disperse the assembly.
 It is said that the drunken negro, whose name could not be ascertained, fired sev- eral shots toward the crowd and that his displeasure finally settled upon ons negro. The two men had some words and the drunken negro finally tried to shoot his opponent. It is stated that the other negro secured repeating shotgun and fired upon his antagonist, emptying three loads of shot Into his body and killing him almost instantly
 The trouble was reported at the sher- iffs office late in the afternoon and the coroner was notified. Being unable to get a train going fin the direction of Cliff, Coroner Brasher got Deputy Sheriff Beverly Chew and together they drove through the country to the mining camp where the shooting occurred. Coroner Brasher held a preliminary investigation and decided that the negro had acted in self-defense in shooting.
 The coroner and Deputy Chew returned to the city shortly after midnight.

DUNCAN DESCRIBES GREAT COMMUNION Where 50,000 People Gather
 ed In Pittsburg ENSLEY MAN RETURNS
International Centennial of Christian Church Was Pronounced Most Successful Affair of the Kind
 Ever Held.

The Rev. P H. Duncan ef Ensley has just returned from Pittsburg, where he attended the great international centen- niaI convention of the Christian church. He. discusses interestingly the services, and especially the great communion ser vice on Forbes field, where 5000 people assembled at one time to partake of the communion. He said:
 ''This centennial celebration had refer ence and looked back to, the restoration movement inaugurated by Thomas Camp bell, the father of Alexander Campbell, in 1909. It was in 1909, September z, that Thomas Campbell first made public his celebrated declaration and address, which set forth the object of the move- ment in which MT. Campbell and those associated with him were enlisted-name- 1y, that of seeking the union of all Chris tian people upon the basis of the Bible and the Bible alone: the abandonment of all huma,f creeds; a complete restoration of apostolic Christianity. Today we have 100000 jadherents to this simple plea, calling themselves simply Christians or Disciples.
 Tt was fitting that this centennial cele- bration should have taken place at Pitts burg, as this city is not far removed from the scene of these early historic transactions.
 "Elaborate preparations were made for the entertainment of the vast throngs of deegates-approximat 5000 in number that poured into the city of Pittsburg during the week, beginning with October H.

All these buildings were necessary to carry out the extensive programmes. Three and sometimes as many as five parallel meet ings were in session at the same time, and rarely were the programmes of the sev- eral contemporary meetings duplicated. Time would forbid my giving anything approaching a detailed account of the many encouraging reports of progress or of the character of the addresses made at these various sessions Many dstin- guished statesmen, among whom were Senator George T. Oliver of Pennsylvania and Champ Clark, members of our faith, were on the programme In addition to these were distinguished educators, busi- ness men, editors and prominent fraternal delegates from other religious bodies. Every phase of the great church activi- ties was discussed and thoroughly re- viewed.

Strong Sermon on Temperance-soI-

The Right Rev. Edward P. Allen, bishop of Mobile, occupied the pulpit at st.. Paul's church at high mass yesterday and preached stirring sermon on temperance. He made it plain that the Catholic church stood for temperance in all things and read extracts from the deliverance of the third plenary council of Baltimore to show that the fathers of the church in this country were strongly opposed to the liquor traffic; but he left it to the con- science of the individual as to the mat ter of supporting or opposing prohibit ton.
