WILL NOT BE
 DIVIDED AT THIS TIME

The North Alabama Presbytery will not be divided at this session. There is a general concensus of opinion among the ministers that the matter should go over to the fall meeting of the presbytery, and even then division is a very doubtful quantity.
 A popular meeting was held last night by the presbytery at the Vine Street Presbyterian church, when the cause of the Orphans Home at Talladega was pre- sented. Dr. J. T. Plunket, chairman of the standing committee on the home. made his report, and addresses were made by George Dunglinson the superintendent of the home; Dr. F. B. Webb of Talla- dega and others.

 Every Direction
CAR AT DIR. w. E. EVANS
His Son-in-Law. W. F. Sullivan, Had Left Ii in Front of the House. Was Stolen by Two Un-
 known Men

Things happened in quick succession yesterday evening, when two unknown men attempted to steal an automobile belonging to W. P. Sullivan, superintend- ent of the mines at Lewsburg A half minute after the men had started down the street with the car they collided head-on with a fruit peddler's wagon. damaged the car and the wagon, threw themselves and the pedder and his horse to the ground, scattered oranges, apples, bananas and all kinds of fruits from one curb to the other, and then made their escape. The peddlers name who was struck by the car is Barney Fish. He and his outfit were not seriously damaged.
 MT. Sullivan and his wife were taking dinner last evening with Mrs. Sullivans parents, Dr. and Mrs. w. E. Evans. Dr. Evans is rector of the Church of the Ad- vent. They had left the car standing in front of the rectory at 517 North Twen- tieth street. While the family were at dinner the butler came running into the dining room and exclaimed that some one had run off with MT. Sullivans car. All of the diners rushed to the front door and were just in time to see the collision.
 The horse was knocked down and the horse thrown over by the impact of the machine. The only damage to the car was a broken spoke, which was soon re- paired A singular coincidence of the affair is that MT. Sulivan by way of caution in order to prevent the very thing which really happened, had taken the plug out of the machine and dropped it in his pocket. The machine is an F.. NJ. F. and entirely useless without this plug The men in some way secured an- other plug just like it and putting it in place jumped into the car and sped away.
 The collision occurred at Fifth ave- nue and Twentieth street the men attempted to turn up Fifth avenue. They brought the car to a standstill and took to their heels. and neither been heard of nor seen since. The police are working on the case, and some developments are expected before morning. There was some belief that the entire affair was d practical joke attempted by some of Mir. and Mrs. Suivan's friends. The police are of the opinion. however, that an att tempt was made to steal the car.

New Medical Discovery
For All Skin Troubles.

A chemist who was convinced that
the old method of taking internal
remedies to cure skin diseases was err
roneous, has discovered that an ex-
tract from a particular part of a we'll
known tree possessed antiseptic and
curative properties on the skin tissues.
It was, however, found that this valu-
able vegetable extract was difficult to
compound with = other ingredients
necessary to present it in form con-
yenient to use. After further investi-
cations and experiments a method of
special treatment was devised, result
ing in a combination Of ingredients
possessing to marked degree valua-
bic therapeutic properties, the like of
which has never before been produced.
This important product is known as
Cadum. Since it's introduction Cadum
has cured many cases of chronic &C.
zema and other unsightly.~ irritating
and distressing skin diseases, and this
after other treatments have failed.
Cadum stops the terrible itching Of
eczema at once. and begins the healing
process with the first application. It's
action is still more remarkable in less
serious SIKH troubles, SucN DIS hives,
pimples, blotches, letter, itch, acne,
herpes, scaly skin, psoriasis, ring
worm, rash, chafings, eruptions, sores,
itching piles, scurvy, blackheads, scabs,
etc. Many of the results effected by
Cadum may be truly called remark
able. 1t destroys disease producing
germs, allays Inflammation, and is
soothing and healing to the skin.

Good Showing Made by
Treasurer's Report.
Pishoa's Ferry Bridge, Work
shopand Repairs, $16,5&. 10.
Without These Expenditures Show.
ing Better Than Last Year.

The annual report of the county
treasurer Of Kennebec county, which
has Just been completed by County
Treasurer Bert P. Stuart OF Belgrade,
makes an unusually good showing as
far as the finances of the county are
concerned. The liabilities are but S12,-
000.15 more than last year and this
ia spite of the fact that unusual ex
penditures, a considerable part of them
authorized by act of the Legislature,
have been incurred during the past
year.
The increased expenditures are due
to the fact that an act passed by the
Legislature of 1909 made it incumbent
upon the county to pay it's proportion
al share Of the cost OF construction of
q bridge across the Kennebec river at
Hinckley, which amounted to $4,000, to
the decision of the prison inspectors
Of the State that a new Jail workshop
was necessary. which has cost the
county for it's construction I'D to Jan.
/, 1910, $S016.S0, and to the installing
of a new slate roof and new ventll-
ator in the old part of the courthouse
at cost of $2291.30. with new VIM
dows at cost of $4,000. This makes
a total of $1S,54S. 10, which is all for
extra expenditures outside of the gen.
eral running expenses of the county.
taking out these extra expenditures
the county makes a better showing
by $6547.95 than last year.
