FIGHT HAS BEEN HOT
 IN FRANKLIN COUNTY
Main Interest Centers on Race
 for Legislature
COUNTY IS FOR O'NEAL
Bankhead Also Looks Like Winner. Carpenter Severely Injured By
 FaIIing-Young Man Injured in the Mines

Russellville, April 29.-(Special )-This week marks the closing of one of the most arduous campaigns of county candidates In the history of Franklin county. From the time the date for the primary was set for May g. all candidates immediately began to make their preparations for a canvass that would cover the county from east to west. leaving out no part that probably would cast vote in the pri- mary. This campaign has been kept in full swing until now and with prospects of not closing until the midnigh hour of Saturday night.
 Main interest in the county candidates is now centered In the race of Prof. Charles G. Richeson and Travis Will Hams for representative in the Alabama legislature. They have been on speak Ing tour of the county for the past three weeks and wind up their active campaign in Russellville Saturday morning at Il o'clock. Each candidate has made good impression, and no one is ready to offer their opinion as to who will be the den- ocratic nomigee for the office. Mir. Riche- son has be1h running on an issue to re- peal the present road law in force in Franklin county, and MT. Williams main issue is advocating law forcing all men, negroes included, to pay a poll tax to the school fund of the state.
 Much interest has also been centered in the race for probate judge. There are six candidates for this office and each has canvassed the county thoroughly. The re- suit of this race is uncertain. as is also the race of " R. Johnson of Red Bay and D. A. Malone of Russellville for cir cult court clerk.

While the county candidates have been | having their go, the state candidates are | not forgotten. The county is conceded to | the O'Neal column by the suppoI ters of
 MT. O'Neal, but MT. Mallory's friends are | equally as persistent in their belief that Franklin will roll up a majority for Nal | lory. The estimation of the vote in this | county by Marcus Well of Birmingham | has created some interest. Mir Well gave Franklin county to MT. ONeal by a ma | jority of 50 MT. Mallorys supporters take this small estimated majority for | O'Neal to mean that the county will place l itself in the column for Mallory in the | primary The friends of MT. Mallory claim that as Mir Well is an avowed par | tisan of O'Neal for governor that he would enlarge the estimation as much as possible to show his estimated standing | of his favorite, and that this small esti-
 mated majority for ONeal clearly signi- fes that Mallory can lay claim to Frank | lin county.
 | Being near the home county of MT. O'Neal and considering the fact that I Franklin gave a big majority againat the
 amendment (although the amendment was not made issue in the campaign
 in the county) 1t can be generally coh- | ceded to O'Neal, although his majority over Mallory cannot be estimated. | If O'Neal carries Franklin county, E. | Perry Thomas, his running mate, will | also have a majority.
 | Interest Is also rife over the other state candidates Charles H. Green will win | here for secretary of state, as will also | M. G. Atwood for state auditor. lndl- l cations now are that Max Hamburger,
 Jr. and Frank N. Julian have the best of the other candidates in Franklin for rail- | road commissioners.
 | It Is generally believed that John H.
 Bankhead will be in the lead for United l States senator.
 The Franklin county campaign in the
 interest of Emmet O'Neal for governor
 will close in Russellville Saturday with a speech by Senator w. l.. Lowe. 1 Walter A. Crowell a carpenter at the mines of the Russellvile Iron, Ore and Metal company, six miles south of Rus 1 sellville. fell from the top of the trestle

BABY's SKIN TORTURE

when u baby was seven weeks
old he broke out with what we
thought vas heat, but which gradually
grew worse. We called in a doctor.
He said it was eczema and from that
time we doctered six months with
three Of the best doctors in Atchison
but he only got worse. His face, head
and hands were a solid sore. There
was no end to the suffering for him.
We had to tie his little hands to
keep him from scratching. He never
knew what 1t was to sleep well from
the time he took the disease until he
was cured. He kept us awake all
hours OF the night and his health
wasn't what you would call good. We
tried everything but the right thing.
FINALLY I got q set OF the Cuticura
Remedies and am pleased to say
we did not use all OF them until he
vas cured. We have waited a year
and a half to see If 1t would return
but it never has and to-day his skin
Is clear and fair as it possibly could
be. I hope Cuticura may IA some
n else's little ones suffering and
also their pocket-books. John Leason,

Our New Infantry Equipment.
From Harper's Weekly.

FROM harper Weekly,
The new infantry equipment for the
United States infantry will prove a
boon to the soldier in the field. This
has been the study of the special army
board for the past several months. and
q practical test at field maneuvering by
the soldiers equipped with the new out
fit has thoroughly demonstrated tty

The equipment has been devised with
every consideration Of economy in cost
and reduction in weight, and adds ma
ter1ally to the soldiers personal move
ments. while at the same time means
have been adopted for relieving him of
That part of the burden from which he
needs to separate himself III the field.
The new equipment accompanies a
saving in weight in the burden of the
foot soldier of 10 pounds. Its principal
feature Is the pack, which consists Of q
cylindrical roll OF canvas worn yerti-
oally on the back Of the soldier. This
contains the blanket. poncho, rations,
and so on 1t is adjusted 80 as to
minimize the weight, and is affixed to
the body in such a way that the com
forts may be speedily released by pull
ing a string and leaving tina part OF
the pack on the field, suitably num-
bered for subsequent Identification. All
that then remains on the shoulders Is

that the hen which laid the eggs for

process Of keeping Is very primitive
but as effective as it is simple. The
eggs are first boiled hard, and then
while they are hot they are wrapped in

In this condition the Chinese claim
they will keep forever and not lose
