 TESTIMONIAL
 some four months ago I wrote you about my case, for I was then using four grains of morphine a day. and sometimes more, and was almost crazy, so decided to try your home treat ment, which did, and today I am well and happy woman, and I would advise everyone who uses drugs to take your treatment if they want to be cured. l used the drug regularly for two years, and was a mere shadow. but now am gaining flesh every day and every one says I look like differ ent person.
 You can use as much of this as you like. I will do all can for you.

 Charles B. James, care James Sana- torium Co.,, Memphis, Tenn: Dear Sir T have no objection to your publishing anything say in regard to myself and your treatment, for I am not ashamed or taking the treatment. All I hate is that l waited as long as I did. If there is anything I can say or do to -elp anyone to be free from whisky or C rettes, am only too willing to do 1t. 4Iany won't take treatment, think ing 1t disgrace. consider it isn't as much disgrace to go and get cured of the habit and go through life with . clear mind as getting drunk and down in the ditch. I have never re- gretted the time and money spent at your Sanatorium. A great many don't take treatment because they see some take treatment and go back to drink ing. Those who do this don't want to quit. They only take treatment to get the poison out of their system, so they can keep on drinking. l felt when 1 left your Sanatorilim that if Twas to drink I would be disgraced, and still feel that way. There Is no reason for a man going back to drinking after taking your treatment. He can do SO if he will but there Is no excuse for it. Wishing you success, I am yours very truly. G. w. WRIGHT. j

 Hartselle, July 9.-(Special.) )-Some idea about the magnitude of the shipments of corn. oats, meal and hay the farmers of this section annually pay toll on may be gathered from statistics which show that there has been received and sold here this season about $2S0.000 worth of the commodities named. These figures were furnished by supply merchant at this place, who has made the investi- gation He also estimated that something like $5O,00O was expended for meats Hay grows abundantly here and all it needs is cutting and housing. With the pres- ent outlook for the corn crop 1t is safe to say that by far more corn will be harvested here this season than for the two past.
 The republican executive committee of the county is in session here today. It is not known what business is being transacted.

Alnbamians' Narrow Escape


 Only by the closest margin do the peo- pie of Alabama seem to have escaped losing lot of money on H. B. Gardner promoter of the Continental Life and In- ternational Fire Assurance company of St. Louis, who Is now in the hands of the St. Louis courts, charged with activities that are of the peculiar kind. So far as can be ascertained he got away with no money from the south, but it was a near lose.
 Gardner, who came here in March and secured permission to sell stock in the state, interested George Dent, life insur- ance specialist, and through him A. J. Jones, cashier of the Fourth National bank. Jones and the bank were to be- come the advisors to pass upon real estate loans in this part of the country, and the bank was to carry a balance of at least $200.00 for the company all the time to meet this and other lines of activity in the south.
 Mir. Dent, judging his proposition to be too good for safe business, took a trip to Washington and St. Louis on a quiet round of investigation and came hme convinced that 1t was not regular and he would not go in. On his say so the Fourth National and MT. Jones refused to dicker further, and half dozen men who were on the verge of giving checks to Gardner to get In on the ground floor were kept back and their money saved to them to MT. Dent. In the meantime the license to sell in the state had been re- voked by the department of insurance and Gardner and his businesses were put on the Alabama bad books.
 F. R. Allison, another expert, was ap- preached by Gardner and urged to take hand, but he held back, waiting to find out and kept out in the end. Mir. Dent, however, was the means of Alabama men being saved. Two prominent citizens of this city were about to sign checks. Dent had to kick one of them nightly under the table to keep him from doing so. Of the S1, ,20000O value of stock to have been placed in Alabama, MT. Dent was to get a large share. He felt, however, that 1t was not safe and he never let up until 1t was discovered that the company was not worthy of confidence.
 Gardner's companies are in the courts in St. Louis and he is charged with ap- propriating 1000 or more to his own use. He stated that $200,00O was on deposit in Alabama, but. it cannot be located. The state has none of it. nor any of the local banks. As Gardner had offices in Mobile and Atlanta, it may be that these cities have some of it in hand that the courts may get at.

ANN|STON JUDGE
 ON MOOTED POINT
Prisoner Was Illegally De-
 prived of His Liberty
FACTORY SITE SECURED
piano Factory at Admission Will Soon Be Under Course of Construction. The Fight Pictures Are Un-
 der the Ban

Anniston, July 9-(Special.) )-Judge John Pelham of the circuit court, in this di- vision of his circuit, rendered decision this morning in which he declares that lower court has no right to hold prisoner after it's jurisdiction has been vacated through an appeal to higher court, the case in question being that of H. t. Bales, charged with violation of the state prohibition laws.
 It is understood that this Is the first time that a case of this kind has come up for decision in an Alabama court, Judge Pelham declaring it to present an un- usual and rather anomalous situation"
 Bales was convicted some time ago in the recorders court and furnished appeal bond for his trial in the city court of Anniston. Later he disposed of all or his Anniston property, it Is said, and moved to Sheffield. On returning to the city recently, however, he was surren- dered to the city by F. M House, his bondsman, and reincarcerated. He in voked the habeas corpus act and the case was takens before Judge Pelham, who has ordered his release from custody on
 
 Judgment of the recorders court by sur rendering the defendant after judgment of that court has been vacated, and while his case is pending for trial de novo In a higher court.
 Another interesting phase of this ques- ton which will likely be of interest to all students of law is touched by Judge Pel- ham as follows: 'The question of the common law and statutory right of bondsman to surrender a principal and re- leve himself of further liability on a criminal bail bond Is not before the court to pass upon so far as the liability of the bondsman is concerned; but as the orig inal case is a quasi criminal proceeding 1t may be suggested, by way of query: Is not the bond civil contract to which the criminal laws of surrender are not applicable in a semi-criminal proceeding, and therefore the bondsman liable under it until the contract is completed. and not authorized to terminate or abridge 1t by surrender of the principal as is author ized in strictly criminal proceedings?
 However that may be, and l do not pass upon it in this case, the defendant is illegally restrained of his liberty and is ordered released.",

DISBURSEMENTS
 ABOVE RECEIPTS
Income Gradually Catching Up
 With Outgo, However
FINE SHOWING IS MADE
Alabama People Had Narrow Escape From Scheme of Man Now Under Arrest in st. Louis Charged
 With Misappropriation

Montgomery, July 9.-(Special )-Whlie the receipts of the state of Alabama TOT the. nine months ending June 30 were less than the disbursements by $215.917. .64. they were in excess of three-fourths of the previous year by s1,075SOo 33. So 1t IS shown that while the outgo is yet heavy and still below the income, the latter is making splendid progress toward catch ing up with the band wagon.
 According to figures given out by Gen. William w. Brandon, state auditor, the total income of the commonwealth for the first nine months of the fiscal year was A.eO5, 734.29. with expenditures of s4,- S21, ,651 93, the excess on the wrong side of the books being $215,917.6i. Three fourths of the total for all of 190S-9 re- ceipts was $3,53o 433 96, less than for the nine months of this year by S1,0753OO. Three fourths of the total outgo for the year before was s4,O33,5 534.16. a saving for this year, as the figures thus show, of $7SS, HIT.
 Figuring this way has no great value, however for there are yet a number of large items to come in, as there are a number to pay out, payments and re- ceipts not running pro rata month by month, nor quarter by quarter. But 1t is fact that the receipts are making an excellent showing for the year and prom ise to go much beyong last years total, which was s4,707,245 B. For all of last year the disbursements were s5,37S, ,046. .SS. There is balance of about s600,000 in the treasury, with the interest on the bonded debt paid and tine big bills out of the way.
 The heavy items of receipts are $1, 10S,- 13 from taxes of the general fund, $457 6s57S from the pension fund, s1,354. .15S .S5 from the school fund, s247, ,969 8 from poll taxes, $1S1, ,0S1 from licenses, $192. .193 from the insurance department, $524,926 from the convict department Large items of enpense are ,631 for the pensions. s249, 1N for insane hospital, s1.920,979 for the schools, $542, ,S16 for the convicts, $l62, 2S0 judicial salaries, $357, ,450 bond interest, $134,750 university s92S05 for Auburn and $S2, 13S for feeding prisoners.

He now says, however that he will ask the council to pass an or- dinance that will give him this authority
