 Birmingham, Feb. 13.--(SpeciaI.)-- Under the civil code of 1907, the Gov ernor may appoint notary public and ex ofilcio justice of the peace in every ward of any city of 5000 or more in- habitants.
 Alfred L. Thorp of North Birming- hame seems to have been the first man to discover this law, and he has re- ceived his commission from the Probate Court. He will be notary of Ward or North Birmingham, and will have the same power as the two justices in that beat.
 As there are four wards in North Birmingham. 1t Is possible that others win be appointed. and unless. the in- ferior court system of Birmingham prevents 1t, there is a possibility of every ward in this city having a mo- tary with justice of the peace powers.

ORIGIN OF "NAVVIES."

Railways may be said to run in
the blood of Lord Brassey. His IA
ther, the humble son of a Cheshire
yeoman, was among the first and
the most successful exploiters of la
Dor by navvies, or ''navigators," as
they were termed, in the eonstruc-
ton of railway tracks. Engineers
in England, Europe and America
sought his services, and so many
were his undertakings that he came
to have an army of $4,000 in his
employ Nearly 1000 miles of rail-
way were laid down under his direc-
ton, and the cost ran close to $780,

NEITHER HOUSE
IS IN SESSION

Little Rock, Feb. 6.-Special.-
The least estimate given by any
member of the legislature as to
the probable length of the session
of the general assembly is 100 days
while great many of the legisa-
tors are openly favoring session
which will last until the first day
of June. This plan is not popular
with the voters, however, and with
the present shortage in the state S
finances, it is expected the mem
bers who propose session of such
length will hear from home on the
question to such an extent as to
change their vote when the time
comes.
All afternoon the house was ar
guing on amendments to the init
alive and referendum. The senate
had no session nor will there be
one until Monday. An amend
ment was made to raise the per
centage of signers of petition for
the initiation of legislation from 5
to 10, and from 8 to IS on refer
ring legislation to the people. Till
man Parks talked for over an hour
against the amendment. A. c.
Martin took up the argument in
favor of th1 amendment when the
house seemed overwhelmingly the
other way. When he completed
very forcible argument the vote
stood 50 to 81 against the amend
ment. The recall was then taken
up and after lengthy discussion,
it was defeated overwhelmingly.
The house then adjourned until
Monday, taking full Saturday
off for the first time since the leg
islature convened.

STOCK AND LASH IN ONE.

In the Island of Jamaica there
grows tree with the botanic name
of Daphne Lagetto, from the
branches of which native workmen
make peculiarly strong and excellent
whips. These whips have the handle
and lash all in one piece. The
handle consists of a part of the stem
retaining the bark. For the lash the
stem is deprived of bark and then
split into strips, which are woven to-
gether in a flexible cord six or seven
feet long. The proper taper is al
forded by detaching more and more
of the strips as the end of the lash Is
approached.

INVESTS IN CONWAY REALTY
Little Rock Concern Buys Ander-
son Addition.
Southern Trust Company Planning Big
Sale of Lots Just Purchased from
President S. Anderson.
FROM THURSDAYS DAILY.

FROM VdUdbOA1b OA44x.
A real estate deal of considerable
importance to Conway was con-
summated in Little Rock yesterday
afternoon, when President S. An
derson sold to the Southern Trust
Co. of Little Rock the entire An
.derson addition, forty-acre tract
of land located in the north western
part of this city. The considera-
ton was not made public, but it is
understood to have been around
$4,000. The trust company was
represented in the deal by A. c.
Read, one of the largest stockhold-
ers and the head of the real estate
department.
1t is the purpose of the company,
according to President Anderson,
to resurvey, replat, grade and i'm
prove the addition, and put the
lots on the market within the next
90 days. The addition has already
been plated by Mr.. Anderson, but
some changes will be made in the
arrangement of the blocks and lots.
Engineers will begin the work of
the survey this week, after which
all of the streets will be opened up
and graded A big sale of the lots
is then contemplated and special
efforts, it is said, will be made to
interest out of-town investors in
the proposition. The addition
will contain about 100 lots.
By this sale President Anderson
conveys all of his real estate hold
ings within the city limits, although
he still owns 100 acres adjoining
the addition on the west and lying

Matteson, is a citizen of this coun-
ty, having recently purchased the
farm of D. Monroe, five miles
northeast of Conway. The Hol-

it to his son that Mr.. Matteson be-
came interested in the property,

chased it at the price named, S3o,-

AER0NAUT FALLS
100 FEET And
ESCAPES Death

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
ROME, May 6. - Lieutenant
|Calderara, one of Wilbur Wright's
|aeronautic pupils, had both shout
ders dislocated today when he fell,
with his istructor's aeroplane,
from height of 100 feet. He was
rendered unconscious by the fall
and was removed to a hospital.
After he regained consciousness
at the hospital Calderara stated
that he had sudden attack of
vertigo and instinctively clutched
the lever. He remembers moth
ing of his terrible drop to the
earth. According to the physi-
clans in charge, he stands an ex-
cellent chance of recovery. Cal
,derara assumed all responsibility
for the accident, and claims that
the mechanism of the aeroplane
was not at fault.
