CHENAULT IS MADE
 NEW POSTMASTER
Some Talk of Contesting Appointment As Other Aspirants Claim They
 Did Not Have Square Deal

Russellville, December 4-(Special)- The name of William l.. sChenault;
 prominent young attorney of Russellville,
 has been announced by President William
 II. Taft as a successor to s. J. Petree,
 tlie present postmaster of this city. From the announcement from the postoffice de- partment it would seem that MT. Che nault was agreed upon and his name en- tered as postmaster before the resigna- ton of Mr. Petree was sent in. At the general election last month Petree was elected probate judge of Franklin county, receiving a majority of one vote over William D. Lowery, democrat, and to ac- cept this office he resigned the postmas- tership to take effect January l. Many of the would-be applicants for the post mastership were very much disappointed ovcr the way the question was handled and decided they not even being given chance to present their applications Chenault is a right-hand man of Joseph O. Thompson, republican referee of Ala bama, and his brother c. O. Chenault, was the nominee of the republican party for lieutenant governor of Alabama at the last election, running under the same banner with Thompson. Some talk of an attempt to have the nomination held up in the Senate by some of the friends of the defeated applicants is heard, though no decision has been made.

Wilson's connection with the flock past year.
 The bride, a young woman of re- markable beauty, entered the church with her father, Mir John w. Reeder and the groom was accompanied by his brother-in-law, MT. Lewis Bowden of Birmingham. who acted as best man. The other attendants were Miss Con- nelia Malone and Miss Exa Paullk bridesmaids, and pr. Floyd Reeder brother of the bride, and MT. M Chris tias, groomsmen. The ceremony was said by the Rev. D. l.. Parrish, pre- siding elder of the Florence district The church was beautifully decora ted with evergrecns and potted plants banked the altar forming a background for the bridal lNrty.

of the abutting property, and he is try ing to restrain the improvement on the ground that he will be damaged thereby. According to the finding of the registrar. who has inspected the premises and has examined numerous witnesses in refer. ence to the value of the property and of the proposed improvement, Is to .he effect that while MT. Stocks may suffer some damage this will be slight, and that the city should be allowed to proceed upon the making of a bond for the pro- tecton of Stocks. If the ruling of tho court Is in accordance with the finding and report of the chancellor the result will be. a sort of compromise verdict in which the contention of both parties will be more or less sustained.
 Yesterday evening while Mack Smith, a farmer, was driving up North Fourth street his horse became frightened at a passing street car and before he could get him under control the animal plunged in front of the running car and had one of its legs broken MT. Smith was not hurt, but the horse had to be killed | The holiday trade in the city Is growing more brisk every day and the merchants are counting on the largest volume of business in the history of the city. The steel plant and almost every other in- dustrial plant in the city has had a pay day in the last few days or will have one within week. and the amount ol money turned loose will amount to be tween $15O.O0O and s2oo00O. Most of this is finding its way into the coffers of the merchants, and they are correspondngly | happy.

NEWS OF GADsDEN
Taxes Must Be Paid TOday-DunIap
 Rules In Favor Of City

Gadsden, December 14.-(Special. )-To- morrow is the last day for property holders to take advantage of the 10 per cent plan in paying for the improvements that have been made recently, and so far but very few have availed them selves of the opportunity. As this is the first improvement of the kind to be made in Gadsden under the new law, there is disposition on the part of the property owners to put the matter of a settlement off until the last minute. A few may even intend to refuse payment altogether, and make test of the validity of the law. However, it is presumed that most
 of them will make arrangements tomor- row to have their assessments carried on the Repayment plan

League Talk Is Renewed

The effort that is being made to bring the Rochester Eastern league champions to Anniston for the spring and winter practices has revived interest in baseball here and the fans are beginning again to consider the advisabiity of placing Anniston in one of the minor leagues next season.
 The movement which started in this city last year resulted in the organiza- ton of the Southeastern league and it was due merely to difference as to the size and membership of the league that Anniston declined to be associated with it in the final analysis.
 When the free lance team was ois- banded last year arrangements were made with several of the old men to re- turn this year. Some of them have re- mained in the city, where they have been given employment, including Crews, the star firstbaseman; Bullard, outhelder; Tape Klein, an Aniliston boy, and Karl Wilson, also of this city, who has served an extensive apprenticeship in the art. Bullard may again be employed to man age the team in the event a league Is formed.
