INVITATION ISSUED
 FOR GOLF TOURNEY

| Montgomery, April 25.-tSpecial. .)-Prac- | tically all of the departments at the cap itol that were required to move have become established in their new quar- ters. The state railroad commission, which had the greatest quantity of fur niture to move, Is now located on the sixth floor in the Bell building. This department has three offices in this build ing and while the assembly room is considered rather small for the needs of the commission, it is believed that the members of the railroad commission will
 have to put up with this inconvenience
 for the present.
 The state convict department Is now occupying the rooms at the capitol Va cated by the railroad commission, and the third floor will shortly be renovated
 for the use of the court of appeals.
 The department of prison inspection and the game and fish department are also located in the Bell building, the state banking board and the commissioner of immigration being established in the First National Bank building.
 The greater part of two days were taken up by these departments in moving, as each of them had considerable furni- ture and office fixtures to be transferred to their new quarters.
