pr. c. H. Woodbury was held up last night shortly after g o'clock by two masked white men when he was not ten yards from his home at Eightieth street and University avenue, East Lake. Dr. Woodbury was relieved of $s2 in money
 Immediately after the highwaymen left him pr. Woodbury hurried to a telephone and notified the police at Woodlawn. Of flcers Shelnutt and Sims were hurried to the scene and searched the vicinity thor oughly without finding trace of the rob- bers.

LEE CRUCE TAKES
 OATH OF OFFICE

Oklahoma, City, Okla., January 9.-This city witnessed for the first time the in- stallation of state officers when Lee Cruce as governor and the other demo- cratic officials were inaugurated today.
 Governor Cruce, in assuming the duties of governor took occasion to defend the constitution of the young state, branded, he said, by its enemies as radical even vicious.
 Governor Cruce said in part:
 We assert there is nothing radical or strikingly new in our constitution. We have simply attempted to profit by the experience of others. Oklahoma's consti- tuition Is the condensation into a single instrument of the best and most vital pro- visions to be found in 45 other state con- stitutions.
 That operation under the constitution is conducive to good government is estab- lished by the unprecedented growth of Oklahoma since statehood. During these three years the increase in taxable val ues has averaged $10000O,000 per year, until now the total taxable wealth of the state approximates $l,0O0,000,000 This wonderful growth has been accomplished during a period of national financial de- precision, supplemented by the most merci- less and unwarranted attacks of the states enemies ever witnessed in political history.
 Capital and labor should be friends Both are sorely needed in the future de- velopment of the state, and neither shall unduly oppress the other If I can pre- vent it.

SLOSS MINE NO. 1
 RESUMES WORK

Bessemer, January 9.-(Special )-Sloss ore mine No. 1 resumed mining opera tions after forced shutdown of about 14 months on account of a flood in the mines. The cause of the flood in the mine was the breaking through of subter- ranean stream. It broke through with out any warning, flooding the mines and completely stopping all operations. It has taken over a year to clear the mine of water and has cost the company large sum of money, as it was necessary to erect an electric plant to run the immense pumps which were used to clear the mines.
 The mine is one of the best feeders of ore for the company of all it's other prop erty, and employs about 700 men. This force will be employed again and will bring prosperity to this part of the com munity.

SELMA AGREES TO
 LIQUOR RETURN

Selma, January 9.-(Special)-Selma will islature will pass repeating the Spresent prohibition laws. Such is the tendency of a resolution which was passed at a meet ing of the city council tonight, after a rather heated discussion following the in- t troduction of a lengthy bill which had been published in local newspapers and which is similar to the bills which will be introduced for passage by Montgom- cry, Birmingham and Mobile.
 The 30 sections of the bill which had been published were confusing to some of the members of the council and that caused the heated discussion which arose during the meeting. The business before the council, which was unimportant, had practically all been disposed of when Councilman P. B.Qiarrel introduced the resolution calling for the recommenda- tion of the bill regarding liquor regula- tion and the licenses of saloons in Selma, providing a similar measure to the inter- ests of Birmingham, Montgomery and Mo- bile should be passed
 Many members of the council spoke upon the question at issue and the debate lasted for nearly an hour. Resolutions and counter amendments were introduced during the meeting but the original move, which had been made by Councilman Vaughn, that the resolution and bill which had been introduced and read be laid over until the next meeting, two weeks hence wasgaining votes when Cour- cilman Lee Leva settled the difference be- tween the councilmen by introducing the following resolution which was accepted:
 Be it resolved, by the city codncil of the city of Selma, Ala, That we do urge our representatives and senators to use their utmost endeavors for the passage of bill regulating the sale of spurious. vinous and malt liquors in the city of Selma, provided such a bill is passed for any other city in the state.'
 In the passage of such a resolution the city council of Selma only want to be on the same plane with the three larger cities of the state if the legislature re- pealed the present prohibition laws
 After the passage of some other rou- tine business the meeting adjourned.

M'PARLAND WINS
 FROM MCCARTHY

Kansas City, January 9.-Packey Me Farland of Chicago won the decision over Johnny Mccarthy of San Francisco in a 10-round bout here tonight The Chicago boy, after leading by a wide margin in every round, left the ring unfs.afked. Macarthys face Was badly bruised. His nose bled freely from the third round until the end of the bat tie. Both fighters and Emmett Nobody, the referee, bore bloody evidence of Mo Farland's stinging blows to his oppoL- ent's face.
 McFarland's dazzling footwork caused tine San Francisco pugilist to miss at least a third of the blows he started. When Mccarthy did land his punches did not seem to carry force. McFar- land had agreed to make 135 pounds this afternoon at 3 o'clock
 To convince the fight followers that he was capable of reaching the lightweight limit Of 133 pounds he weighed in at a few ounces over this mark.
 The much mooted question whether the Chicago boy was possessed of the knock out blow was not settled tonight but few of the spectators were willing to say after this battle that he is not strong. With rights and lefts, delivered from many angles, he continually rocked the Pacific coast fighters head, At least three times during the fight, in the fourth and fifth rounds, the gong saved Me- Carthy.
 Mcfarland paid little attention to his opponents body. The majority of his blows were left uppercuts to the jaw and right and left swings to the head. Tenth round finish was fast and it ap- peared as If Mccarthy would be knocked out He swung wildly and ran into such a tattoo of McFarland's head punches that he became dizzy but he clung until the gong sounded.
