STATUES WILL NOT !
 BE NEGLECTED

1 Washington, February 2.-(Special.) )-
 The determination of the Virginia dele gation to allow the statue of General Lee to stand in statuary hall without
 formal ceremonies of presentation may
 be changed. The Virginia legislative com4
 mission having in charge the production
 and placing of the statues of Lee and | Washington, will visit Washington the | latter part of the week for the purpose of conferring with the Virginia delega4 | ton.
 It is understood to be the sentiment
 of the commission that while it is not
 wise to propose resolutions of presents ton at this time, that it is desirable that | there should he ceremonies of some kind in recognition of the statue of the Con federate commander in chief being placed in the national capitol and therefore it | will advise that the ceremonies, purely unofficial in their nature, be held in statuary hall on a date to be fixed. The ceremonies, it is proposed, shall be participated in by several Confed-
 crates of note, who will make addresses
 and will be attended by representatives of Confederate camps very generally.
 Already the sharpest kind of opposi- ton to this programme has been mani | fested, both by those who thought 1t
 unwise to press the statue on the gov ernment by proposing a resolution for ceremonies of presentation, as well as by
 those who advocated the usual course of
 presenting the statues on a day agreed
 upon. It is the position of those op- posing unofficial ceremonies that such a
 course would amount to "sneakfng the
 statue into the hall.--This is the very
 thing charged by those who favor the
 usual course of presenting the sta4he
 and setting aside a day for the core
 monies. -a

QUEEROBJECTIONS
 RAISED BY WOMAN

Montgomery. February 2.-Mrs. c. L. Fierce of Coosa county received a rebuke from the supreme court when she ob- Jected to the purchase of a tombstone for the grave of her father, Heziah AL len. out of the money of his estate, in which she claims share.
 Tt seems unnatural said the opinion. ''that a child or other descendent of Heziah Allen should object to paying for modest tombstone for placement over his grave out of the fruition of his labors. He was the man from whom they got the property in question"
 Mrs. Pierce, in her suit against J. C. Bulmer, Heziah Aliens administrator, also objected to the purchase of cof- fin for her mother, Sarah Allen, and a tombstone for her mother, out of the money of the estate.

New City Pound

It has been officially announced that the city authorities will purchase a site between Ensley and Pratt City for Rcity stable and city pound. The site as'been selected with view to the convenience of the two cities. It is stated that the pres ent pound laws will be so amended as to allow stock to run at large during cer- tain hours in the sparsely settled terri tory around the two municipalities. The present city stables and pound are situ- ated on the lot behind the city hall and with the increase of population and the acquisition of street making implements and stock the present quarters are en- tirely inadequate and undesirable.
 The justice of modifying the pound laws are apparent and while they are still in force. it is stated they will be amended to meet the conditions

 Stnson holds that only along indus achieve success as he believes that the salvation of his race lies in the sort of education which will make it's mem bers intelligent industrious and paying workmen.
 Stinson derives his authority from the same source as does President Lee and the other officials and it is said in his sphere of financial agent ae is supreme.
 So the Sunday meeting will be held and the industrial end of the college given q boom. But just how the row between the high literary lights of the negro institution who want to teach it's students Latin and French, instead of cooking and carpentering, is going to turn out. remains to be seen. It will probably have to be settled finally by the board of trustees composed of the negro ministers of the diocese.
 But there is no doubt of the fact that if Morris Brown abandons it's indus trial features it will have largely lost it's usefulness to the race.

Anniston, February 2.-fSpecial)- )-ln- formation was received here today from Jacksonville to the effect that James Mon ahan. 76 years, who was attacked Sa tnrday night by bull dogs, is in critical con dtion, and but little hope is entertained for his recovery. It seems that Mir Monahan had gone to visit pr. W. A.

All of his clothing was torn from his body. Owing to the loca- tion of the wounds and the extreme age of the victim, it is hardly probable that he will recover.

It is inn possible to ascertain just what the vot- ing strength of the county now is but many guesses havet been made today which range all the way from 20o0 to 5000. At the amendment election last fall to- tai vote of 2757 was cast, many failing to pay their poll tax last year and conservative estimate of the vote at the next election is placed at 3o70.
