there can be any possible relief. J. E. Penney, owner of the hotel property, may build big department store building on the site of the main part of the hotel and convert the Hunts vile opera house into a hotel, making use of the rooms in the annex which was saved from the fire. This plan seems best from a financial standpoint as things look now. There is talk also of forming a stock company to build first-class hotel here. That is the way the Huntsville hotel was built in 1858 to meet the demands of thriving young town, and the same method may be resorted to to provide hotel that will meet present requirements.
 A charity ball Is being arranged for Thanksgiving night by the United Charities organization. It will be the first affair of the kind given here In many years.

 New HoteI-Other News

Huntsville, November S.-(Special.)-- The vault of the Huntsville Bank and Trust company that passed through the fire that destroyed the banks home and the Huntsville hotel Friday morning was opened this morning and every
 thing therein found to be intact. Not the least damage was sustained by any thing in the vault. It stands a few
 feet from the corner of the big building where the fire was fiercest, and was subjected to the severest kind of test. With the Huntsville hotel out of business Huntsville lacks adequate hotel facilities.

 Cook Draws a Map
 'One day and Apalak came upon Dr. Cook sitting down drawing map looked at it and asked him:
 ssWhose route are you drawing?'
 My own," replied Dr. Cook.
 But that was lie, because he drew the map a long way out at sea, where we never had been.
 "We continued to shoot bears on the ice till we had enough for the dogs. We do not know how many nights we slept On ths part of the journey. The small rivers had only begun to break when we reached Hells Gate. Here, as Dr. Cook directed us. we left our dogs behind us. although they were fat from the meat of bears. We crossed the Great sound and had to push oui boat along the ice. Dr. Cook said:
 We will reach human beings (Baffin' Land) within two days
 we had slept twice when he looked ahead and said that he saw tent. but It was only stone. We kept hunting for human beings a long time. Then we came to an island on which cider birds were nesting. We followed the land past Cape Sparbo and when our provisions were nearly gone we returned toward Cape Seddon, where we arranged for win tering.
 Tt was yet twilight the whole night and we built house of peat and stone just as we do at home. We caught wal rus, musk OK and bear for the winter With the bow we killed only two hares We had gun to kill musk OK and beal with. To kill musk OK with bow is impossible.

PROVIDENCE GAS | |! CASE SUBMITTED EEEn

Arguments in the case of J. V. Allen vs the Providence oil and Gas company et al were concluded yesterday aft ernoon by the attorneys interested, and the case was submitted to Chancellor A. IT Benners. Chancellor Benners took the case under advisement and his de- oision will be forthcoming within the next two days.
 Allen sued the Providence OH and Gas company. Dr. G. B. Grove. and otbers. to recover some 4S,000 shares of stock in the Providence company, or which he claims he was fraudulently dispossessed. With others of the stock holders he turned over his stock to the trustee of the company. He was lad to believe, he ayers. that this was fo. the benefit of the stockholders. as r,onev was needed to finance the oper- ations of the company. Soon after the stock had been surrendered, he alleges, if proved very valuable.
 A11en's suit was filed in chancery last summer soon after 1t was announced that the Fayette gas and oil fields were of great value. Since then a great amount of litigation has been caused in the matter. An involuntary petition in bankruptcy is now pending against the Providence company, and it Is prob able that this consideration will have some bearing in the original suit.
 MT. Allen is being represented in his suit by Attorney James Weatherly, and the Providence company and Dr. Grove ct al. are being represented by James F. Davidson and J. A. w. Smith. The hearing of the case by Chancellor Ben ners has consumed something more than week.
