Ethel Barrym ore

Ethel Barrymore showed remarkably fine acting in Sunday she evidenced unusual versatility when she played a mother in "Alice-S -Sit-By- -the-Fire'' after her exquisite work as a young girl in Captain Jinks" In Lady Frederick she uttered the brilliant epigram and repartee of Maugham's comedy as If the thoughts contained in these flashes had suddenly popped into her mind and out of her mouth extemporaneousy. In all of her work she has shown unusual intel ligence.

Agricnlturnl Receipts

Receipts of the department of agricul- ture for the month of October, just closed, show that the sum of $HS5 was collected during the s1 days, as opposed to s9472 collected during the same month Of 1909. The difference in receipts Is due to a fewer number of registration of brands.
 The itemized report shows that from the registration of brands during the past month s20l0 was received, as opposed to s260s received for the same year the previous year. From the sale of tags dur ing the month just closed there was re- ceived $io95, against s7si the previous year Eighty licenses were issued during the recent months, aggregating sSo, as against ss5 worth of licenses issued the same month of the previous year.
 According to the statutes covering the registration of brands, until December is allowed in which to record the brand. after which it is violation of the law to receive the registrations. The month of November. as consequence, is usually made heavy because of the rush at the last moment. It costs each dealer & to register a brand. and s1 to take out a license for It's sale.

LEAVES FOR PEA RIDGE
Captain McGregor Goes to Cast Vot
 for Senator Taylor

For the purpose of assisting in shelling the woods for "F'iddlng'' Bob Taylor, who is engaged in death grapple for the governorship of Tennessee, Capt James R. McGregor will leave this morning for Pea Ridge. Tenn.
 Inasmuch as Captain McGregor is the owner and proprietor of almost the en- tire business life of Pea Ridge and en- virons. his assistance for MT. Taylor will be valuable. He said last night that re- ports from Tennessee indicated that Sen ator Taylor would be selected governor by a good safe majority. In addition Captain McGregor said 1t was a mistake to charge Senator Taylor os being tool of Gov. M R. Patterson. as such charges made in the past had been successfully refuted by Senator Taylor.
 Captain McGregor will remain in Ten nessee until the last trumpet call has been sounded.

SERIOUS FIRE DAMAGE
BY BERRYMAN G. BETTY

i Montgomery, November 4.--(Special.) )
 Lobby talk in this city has 1t that Jesse
 F. Stallings, one of the O'Neal lieu- tenants, and chairman of the democratic
 campaign committee. may be named by
 Governor o'Neal as special counsel for
 the state to take charge of the rail- road litigation at the present time be- I fore the courts of this country. It is
 generally conceded that Judge s. D. | Weakley, now in charge of the litiga-
 tion, will hardly be retained and gos-
 sip, because of that understanding. has
 3een busy trying to arrive at his suc- cessor.
 l For number of years MT. Sta1lings
 has been in the limelight in this state. and for as long a time he has been recognized as a hard political worke CT and Jealous advocate of the principles for which he stands. He is success iul lawyer and Sucn has kept in close touch with the railroad proceed ings now in progress
 Another of the states well known lawyers who is being mentioned as Judge Weakley's successor is Col. A. il. Garber, present attorney general of Alabama. Colonel Garber has moved his residence to Birmingham, in which city he will reside upon formally re- tiring from office at the capital next January. The attorney generals val uable assistance to the state in the progress Of the cases, despite his mul- titudinous duties as attorney general of the state, has served the purpose, his friends say, of making him the most logical successor to Special Coun- sel Weakley. It is doubtful if anyone in the state is as familiar with the rate cases as is Colonel Garber
 The position takes practically all of lawyers time and furnishes a fair remuneration for the amount of work which Is required It Is quite probable that the services of a special counsel will be required for at least another year, if not longer. and In view of the lengthy hearings so far had it is thought by friends of Colonel Garber that Governor O'Neal will in all prob ability retain someone who by vir- tue of being long associated with the cases. will be in position to take up the hearing right away and push it on to successful completion.
 MT. Stallings' activity In the present campaign now drawing to a close has been the subject of much favorable comment through the state and be- cause of this it is advanced by his friends that Governor ONeal might en- deavor to reward him, in part, by giv- ing him the office.
