 Mir. cassels' talk was short. but in- teresting to the members, revealing to many for the first time the extent of an industry which it's opponents think is illimitable.
 No business was taken up during tht evening. but the several hours of the session was occupied with talks and suggestions flor the good of the order" from many of those present
 Secretary weever unfoided many of his plans, and many of the ideas which have already been worked with success since his inauguration two months ago. He told of the monthly magazine, q booster of Montgomery. its advant- ages and opportunities. which he has planned as the organ of the club, and which will be seif-sustaining.
 He spoke of envelopes, bearing the picture of some central spot, or fa- miiiar building about Montgomery. the envelopes to be sold to business men for their use, to be sent thus broad- cast. and to advertise Montgomery.
 The two plans. the magazine and the envelopes. entaiied what he termed "seif -sustainins publicity" The two institutions are planned to keep them selves up. and at the same time to tell the world of Montgomery.
 Of the newly formed Advertising League; of the benefits of the reputa- tion Montgomery has lately acquired by It's stand in the cotton seed oil bus mess: and of an appeal to "get to- gether for Montgomery" he spoke fur ther. He took up the guaranty fund. which Is planned to aid prospective manufacturers, and explained it: he asked for social features In connection with the club work, to attract larger attendance.
 President Fred s. Ball followed with talk, with a plea to develop home talent, to boost home industry with q view to interesting the young people. and to. make Montgomery thus its own brain market.
 He struck a vein of intense hopeful ness for Montgomery, and of faith in her progress by telling of the depend. ence upon the Commercial Club Of Montgomery, which IS being instilled in public bodies of other cities. citing an example of the Lynchburg Chamber of Commerce, whose representatives called upon the Montgomery officials to seek aid in selecting secretary for their organization.
 The small farm proposition came up again. and the idea of sub-dividing the great plantations about this section, for great part unused into small farms of forty. eighty or 12o acres, met gem eral favor. c. A. Thomas. Secretary weever, President Ball. J. T. Gilmer, were some who vented their opinions on the small farm idea.
 W. N. Cox. who broached the sub ject of a manual training school for Montgomery; 0. I. Levy, who pleaded for more of the "get together spirit"; Frank Stollenwerck, Jr. M. 8. Gerson. who introduced the idea of play. grounds for the children, and. for irn- provement along park lines; Frank P. Giass, who told of the work of the Park Commission. and of the virtual death of that body, in response to Mir. Gerson's plan, were other of the mem bers who held the floor at various times of the fruitful experience" meeting, as it was termed.

A DEMENTED NATIVE.

Bellinghaln (Wash-) Ameriean.-Pos-
sessed of a monomania on religion
James Warner, full blooded Hawaiian
native, who claims to be a preacher,
was transferred from the city prison
this morning to the county jail pending
an inquiry into his sanity. The man
was taken in custody several days ago
and has been held at the city prison.
At times he appears rational, but this
morning he took a turn for the worse,
and became ineoherenr in his rambIings.
Among other things. he declared that he
had just walked all the way from Sc
attic. The man has in his possession a
Bible printed in the Hawaiian tongue
Warner has been taken in custody on
several previous occasions, due to his
peculiar actions, but always had been
released.

TEACHERS SALARIES.

To the Honorable w. @. Smith, Presi-
dent of the Senate.
We the undersigned, being Com.
mittee of the Territorial Teachers As
ISOLATION, respectfully submit to your
honorable body the following express
sion of the opinion of the aforesaid
association concerning certain measures
now before the Legislature relating to
the compulsory school age of children
in the public schools:
First: That any bill shortening the
compulsory school age of the children
of the Territory, be not passed.
Second: The statistics of the public
schools of all lands show:
i. Reduction of the compulsory
school age is inevitably followed by
the expansion of the prison and the
poor house.
2. The states which are most adj
vaneed, and which possess the highest
social, economic and political welfare,
are those in which the sehool-chlldren
have the longest schoollife. Shorten
ing of the school-life of the child re-
suits in political, and economic IN
efficiency.
Third: Any bill shortening the
school-life affects most seriously the
great mass Of citizens, who cannot
afford to pay for the private tuition
of their children.

Because your case is difficult one,

many cases of female ills, such as in
fiammation, liberation, displacements,
fibroid tumors, Irregularities, periodic
pains, backaehe, that bearing-down
feeling, indigestion, dizziness, and ner-
vous prostration. It costs but trifle
to try it, and the result is worth mil
