TraveIina Libraries.

The popularity of the travelling library is evidenced by the constantly increasing demand for them in the sections that have no advantages of this kind. Dr.. Thomas M. Owen, director of the state department of archives and history is re- ceiving a large number of requests for this equipment just now, and is sending them out as fast as the books can be shipped. These go free, save charge for carriage, which the school or com munity must pay.
 Books may be had for four months, after which they are returned and others secured. Each library has about oo VOL tunes, composing history, blography' es- says poetry, fiction, nature books ana 3uyenile literature Communities or schools may have them by meeting the requirements, these being furnished upon application to the department here.

soeiation, held in Charlotte, N. C.. last Friday and Saturday. The action of the committee in recommending a curtail- ment of production was for the purpose of betterins the price of goods rather than to reduce the price of cotton.

The amenders propose making a hard fight for the amendment, but in spite of the fact that the opposition is unorganized it is freely predicted that St. Clair will go against the proposition.

Buffalo Bill Tomorrow.

The glamor of arms ever has held the interest of all people. There is an in- spiration that comes with the marching of the soldier, the martial music and over all the waving flags. that noth- ing else brings. Among the best drilled and most perfect exponents of the art of war are the representatives of the three branches of the service exhibiting with Buffalo Bills Wild West The zouaves form a picturesque group and excite enthusiasm by their machine-like revolutions. The cavalry simply astounds the beholders by their feats of horse manship and skilfull drills and the artil- lery is most impressive feature of this great military exhibition. Buffalo Bill and Pawnee Bill will be in Birmingham tomorrow for two performances. sss

STATE WILL HAVE
 ID BORROW MONEY Governor May Have to Nego- tiate for Loan of S1,000,000 STRONG BOX VERY LOW
Travelling Libraries Are in Demand. Mobile Wants Figure Head of Battleship Alabama - Pardon
 Board Fails to Meet.

Montgomery October H. (Special) If the expenses of the state run as heavy for the last three months of the calendar year as they did in 1908. there will be a deficit of over a million dol- lars to be taken care of by Gov. B. B. Conner by the first of January. This Is indicated in the fact that while there was a balance in the treasury on Sep tember 91 of s712.c2459. the expenses of October, November and December, 1908. ran behind the receipts of that period s1.275,Ss9.22.
 The balance on September 80, last, as noted. was $712.o24.59. compared to $1,S6o.sS3.62 the year before, falling off in this item of s54s,sO9.o3. The total receipts of the year were s4,7oI,- -245.2S, the disbursements s5,356.454.5i, the outgo being s5i9. .2o9.OS in excess of the income. The fact that the bal ance from last year was liberal takes care of the falling off. so that up To now there has been no trouble.
 Last year the low water mark of the strong box was $77OOO between
  receipts from October to December 31, last year. were s5S6,6S6.50, compared to S1,S62,525.72. If the ratio is main tained this year it is easy to see that more than a million dollars will have to be borrowed. The taxes do not be- gin coming in before January and the history of the fund account during the latter quarter of any year is every thing going out and nothing coming in.
 Just what will be done with the de- felt cannot now be stated, as Gov ernor Conner is keeping his own coun- sel. However, he has said in the past that the people need have no concern, as he will see that the money is forth coming. He has not indicated his way of bringing this about, and the fact that he refused to bring up any finan- cial legislation at the extra session, leaves the people in the dark as to his plans. He has always done well in tne money line and there are none to say that he will not be in with the goods when the time comes.
