HANDSOME NEW TRAIN
Seminole Limited Will Have Entire Ney
 Equipment on Trip Today

When the Seminole limited, over the Illinois Central, reaches Birmingham this afternoon it will be cloaked in all its fall raiment, and will possibly be among the handsomest trains that was ever operated in the south
 The improvement in the train service has been mapped out for several months and will be effective today. The train will be composed of all-steel cars, from engine to observation. The cars will all be electrically lighted and will possess in the Pullmans individual berth electric lights.
 The observation car has been changed for a newer one, which will make its initial trip through Birmingham for Flor ida today.
 The local officers are planning to keep this train constantly before the public this fall.
 The Illinois Central executive depart ment has this train under special pat ronage and is trying to make 1t equal to any operated in the country. The company has been widely advertising the advantages of Florida as a winter re- sort this summer and 1t is their expec- tation to carry more people to that state this season than ever before.

 Since the new council has had charge of the city affairs not one member has been absent from any of the council meetings. Whether this is due to the fact that they receive compensation for their services has yet to be determined. For the first time in the state of Ala bama city aldermen have been paid for their services. Tonight each alderman received the sum of $l0 cash the receipt whereof they acknowledged. It is only fair to say, however, that the majority of them are not in favor of the meas ure.

 In 1890, Solomon Boone. from De. yonshire, made a home in Bristol. Pa, and George Boone was also a settler. in the same state, at Exeter. Berks county. George was born at Exeter. Devonshire, England. 1866. and came over with his wife, Mary Maugridge, and children, in 1717 George has all ways been a favorite name in the Boone family, of the Pennsylvania line, and longevity and good health are char acteristics. One forefather had. to his credit, at his death, eight children. 5 grandchildren and ten grand children-70 in all. or as many as the house of Jacob, that went down into Egypt. It Is further recorded. that he never had an aching bone or a decayed tooth" One of the officers Of the revolution was Capt. Hawkins Boone of this line, boy of '76"

It Is an open question from what Lucas is derived Various theories have been advanced. The name ap- pears in classic records. Lucus is the Latin name for grove or wood dedi- cated to god; temple, a cloister in wood Lucas is easily derived from Lucus, also Luke. and St Luke's Latin name was Lucas Then there is the Latin word lux-light-and its yari- ation, or genitive. lucis. It is possible, sy the exercise of little imagination, to evolve Lucas from lux, and what is life worth without little imagina- tion, to tighten dark places. The name Lucasta is directly from lux casta-chaste light.
