CONFER WITH
 GOVERNOR Solicitor Stalworth of
 Mobile Here. MATURE OF VISIT UNKNOWN t k Believed, However, That It Concerns Lynehing Case. Runored Impeachment Proceedings Asai.st sheriff Casai.s sf Mebiie |.
 County May Be the
 Issue.

Solicitor Nicholas ataiiworth and Palmer Pillans of Mobile spent yes- terday in Montgomery at the State Capitol. where a long conference with Governor Conner and Attorney General Garber and other State ofncials was 4r. -Pillans fatly refused-to discuss the nature of their visit. and his ex- cellency, Governor Conner. declined to be seen about the matter.
 It Is shrewd gossip in Capitol cir- cles, however, that the lengthy con- ference of yesterday by the two Mo- bile lawyers had to do with the ru- instituted against Sheriff Frank Ca- salas of Mobile County, as a result of the lynching of the negro Robertson some weeks ago.
 Readers of The Advertiser will re- member that the negro Robertson killed Phillip Patch, a deputy sheriff. and that the negro was taken from Mobile jail during the early hours of the morning and lynched within half . block of the jail. No one seemed to know anything about the matter, and the good people of Mobile were highly ancensed over the matter.
 Soon after the Iynchtng Governor Conner, in a telephonic communication with Solicitor Stallworth. talked ex.
 
 sip had 1t that Sherif Cazalas was threatened with impeachment proceed ings before the Supreme Court of Ala bafna.
 At the same tims it was learned that Solicitor Stallworth had conferred with the sheriff of Mobile County and his deputies and jailers regarding the lynching. and that a rigid investiga- ton had been instituted. That the con stitution of the State relating to the Institution of such impeachment pro- ceedings was read to tn ose present be- fore the testimony of the sheriff and his assistants was taken.
 It is kEown that a stenographic re- port of this investigation was for warded to Governor Conner. and it Is surmised that the conference of yes- terday was a verbal report of the con- dftfons, which prevail in Mobile rcla- tive to the entire matter.
 Governor Conner has expressed him. self as much interested in the out come of the affair. and has offered a large reward for the arrest and con viction of the parties participating in the lynching.
 It is more than probable that Attor- hey- General Garber will make known the result of the conference between the Governor and the Mobile lawyers within a weeks time, although that Dfficial refused as hatly as did the others of the conference to maxu known the subject under discussion.
 If impeachment, proceedings are in- stituted. the prosecution will have to be made before the Supreme Court of Alabama in the case of Sheriff Cazalas. and Attorney-General Garber will have 10 prosecute the matter in person. In the case of the 1ailers and deputy sher- affs. Impeachment proceedings may be instituted in the courts of Mobile County.

GOOD INDICATIONS
 OF BUILDING BOOM A NUMBER OF HOUSES ALREADY
 UNDER WAY
Many More Will Be Constructed Dur
 ing the Fall and Winter

There is every indication that there will be good sized building boom in Tempe this fall and winter At least a dozen new houses are being fig ured on in the Gage addition and with the assurance now of the city water system in that section, it is probable that even more than this number will be built
 There are other houses already well under way in town. and it is a notice able fact that those nearer the main part of town are of better class than it has been the custom in the past to build. Richard Schweppes new home on East Fifth street, is now assum- ing shape. When completed it will be a handsome place and will add much to the appearance of that part of town. On Mill avenue, Dr. R. l.. Alexander's new brick residence is taking shape It is another place in which consid- erable care in the plan has been ex- ercised. It will not only be convenient and comfortable, but will likewise be pleasing to the eye On East Seventh street the Palmer cottage is nearly completed. In its construction. while of material that is common here now. cement blocks. several new ideas have been featured with a highly pleasing effect The cottage will be a very neat and attractive one. Just across from the presidents residence at the nor nal. Harry Walker is putting the fin ishing touches on a very neat home. It is different in structure from other houses here, being of cement brick in stead of cement blocks. The use of brick adds considerable to the appear ance of the structure and Mir Walker will have an attractive home over in Goldman's addition, G.

 BY HORSES.

Two men in 35-foot power boat were rescued in the worst northeaster of the season recently off the metro politan parkway at Nantasket by of ficers of the metropolitan police, as- sisted by cottagers. Their boat was pulled ashore by a team. J. l.. Ecker of Dorchester, the owner of the boat, and William A. Kauth. who was visit ing him, undertook to bring the boat into Boston harbor. Everything seem ed prOpritious until they were opposite Sagamore Hill. when the power gave out The boat was unmanageable and drifted rapidly to the beach. The men could do nothing but try to keep the boat righted, and Patrolmen Mullen and Dwyer went to their help in small boat By this time a crowd of cottagers had gathered, and when the boat came into the breakers about 25 of those waded into the surf and lent hand in pulling the bat ashore The policemen got hold of a team and dragged the boat on the beach beyond the breakers. Outside of a drenching for the men and a straining of the boat no damage was suffered.-Boston Herald.
