MERGER PLANS ARE PROGRESSING WELL Receiver for Chattanooga Concern Was Asked for
 By Agreement

It is said on high local authority that the plans for merging the Southern Iron and Steel company and the Alabama Con- solidated Steel and Iron company are progressing satisfactorily, but that some weeks may yet be required before the if nal details can be completed and the con- solidation become a reality.
 Tn this connection an article in Fridays s Chattanooga Times will be read in Br- mingham with interest, especially as A. w. Chamblss, the well known lawyer, has informed The Age-Herald by long dis tance phone that the article was au- thorized and correct. It follows:
 According to we'll informed authority, the foreclosure proceedings filed against the Chattanooga Iron and Coal company in this city, mention of which was made in the Times of yesterday, will have no bearing whatever upon the reorganiza- ton plans of the Southern Iron and Steel company The action of Wednesday will be followed by the appointment of re- ceiyer by agreement of the parties who will operate the properties pending the consummation of the reorganization.
 According to a local man closely con- nected with these interests. who was seen by Times reporter yesterday, the steps taken at this time in the courts IS in the direction of these larger plans and the litigation is rather friendly than oth- erwisef The operations of the southern Iron and Steel company, said he. Will not be interfered with, the receivership applying only to the Chattanooga Iron and Coal companys properties embraced within the mortgage. These consist Of the Chattanooga furnace the Estehe mines, Ironco quarries and Dunlap mines.
 The suggested receivership had no ap- plication to the Southern Iron and Steel company this company having been made a party only because of its owning the equity in the Chattanooga Iron and Coal company.

Safe Treatment for Headache.

The rational treatment for headache
is to get at the cause, if possible, and
remove it. Headache is only a symp-
tom of trouble somewhere in the sys-
TEN, and dosing with tablets or powders
containing acetanilid or other coal-tar
derivatives which stop the pain tempo
rarily but weaken the heart, is at once
unsafe and unwise. The headache may
come from your eyes, then a good ocu-
list can help you at once with proper
eyeglasses; but if it comes with furred
tongue, loss of appetite, nausea, and
constipation, it is usually the result
of disordered digestion, or torpid liver,
and one or two doses Of L. F. Atwood's
Medicine will speedily help you by
carrying off impurities and restoring
the clogged digestive organs to their
normal activity. In using this old re-
liable remedy, you take no chances Of
weakening the hearts action.
It has a record of sixty years as a
safe headache remedy. The 81. F."

enumerated by the census of 1910 has
not yet been tabulated.
In the 80 years, from 1850 to 1880, the
population of the State of Maine in
creased from 5S3, 1863 to 64s, 936, an in
crease of 65,767, or 11.3 per cent; in the
same period the number of natives of
Maine living in other States increased
from 81, 1893 to 1872, 257, an increase of
lis, 064, or 171.2 per cent.
EMIGRATION CHECKED.
The tide of emigration has apparent
ly been somewhat checked since then.
At any rate the number of nonresident
natives of Maine reported by the census
was not much greater in 1900 than it was
in 1890, the increase being only 6,303.
The population of the State in the same
decade increased by SO, $50, or per cent.
The last decade, 1900 to 1910, records
an increase in the population of the
State of 1896, or 60 per cent. This is
the largest absolute increase recorded by
any census since 1850 and the largest
percentage of increase since 1860.

The Work of Rum Agents in the

In circular letter to members Of the
No-License Movement, George w. Nor
ton of Portland, State Secretary says:
The recent fight in Texas gives us
important pointers. You will observe
that the fl ht made by the brewers was
in the country districts. Saturday night
when the first returns from Texas came,
the Associated Press conceded the
Dries had won because the vote from the
large towns was in and if the vote in the
country towns had been as expected,
the majority for prohibition in Texas
would have been large.
cit is in the country that the liquor
forces will make their fight. They get
what they can in the cities and large
towns but they pay their attention to
the districts with scattered population.
"Forewarned ought to be forearmed
The people must be educated to look
out for the tactics which these people
are adopting. They have men all over
the State assuming to be canvassers, and
they go from house to house showing
their goods and always close the call by
telling about how beautifully the license
system works out in the town where
they live.
"They have bogus runners making a
pretense of displaying some kind of
goods in grocery stores. When they get
an audience, they reel off lot of the
same sort of stuff, explaining, all the
time, that of course it is nothing to
them, what we do in Maine, but if
they lived here. they would do so and
SO, always favorable to the liquor traffic.
"Their literature is going into the
hands of every voter in the farthest
corner of the State.
''Their arguments can be met and
answered, but not through Indifference:
The battle in Maine is not yet won; some.
of our people think we are sure Of it
we are not sure of it. And l am writ
ing this to impress upon men who are
engaged in the work the Importance Of
seeing to it that educational work is
carried on in every school district, in

The author John R. Thou pson was at one tim.
editor of the Southern Literary Messenger
published at Richmond, Virginia.
Two armies. covered hill and plain,
Whers Rappahannock's waters
Ran deeply crimsoned with the stain
OF battles recent slaughters.
The summer clouds lay pitched like tents
In meads of heavenly azure;
And each dread gun of the elements
Slept in its high embrazure
The breeze, so softly blew, it made
No forest leaf to CULVER;
And the smoke of the random cannonade
Rolled slowly from the river.
And now, where circling hills looked down,
With cannon grimly planted
Ger lstless camp and silent town,
The golden sunset slanted,
When on the fervid air there came
strain. now rich, now tender;
The music seemed itself afame
With days departing splendor.
A Federal band which eve and morn,
Played measures brave and nmble,
Had just struck up, with flute and horn,
And lively clash of cymbal.
Down f1ocked the soldiers to the banks
Till, margined by its pebbles,
One wooded shore was blue with "Yanks,"
And one was gray with "Rebels
Then all was still; and then the band,
With movement light and tricksy,
Made stream and forest, hill and strand,
Reverberate with Dixie"
The conscious stream, with FURNISHED glow,
NeT1tF al trgfp &c, III
But thrilled throughout its deepest flow
With yelling of the Rebels
Again pause; and then again,
The trumpet pealed sonorous
And yankee Doodle" was the strain
I To which the shore gave chorus.
The laughing ripple shoreward flew
To kiss the shining pebbles;
Loud shrieked the Swarnling Boys in Blue"
/ Defiance to the "Rebels"
And yet once more the bugle sang
Above the stormy riot
No shout upon the evening rang
There reigned holy quiet
The sad, slow stream, its noiseless flood
Poured Ger the glistening pebbles
All silent now the Yankees Stood
All silent stood the 'Rebels.''
No unresponsive soul had heard
That plaintive notes appealing,
So deeply "Home, Sweet Home" had stirred
The hidden founts of feeling
Or Blue, or Gray, the soldier sees,
AS by the wand of fairy,
The cottage meath the live oak trees,
The cabin by the prairie
Or cold, or warm, his native skies
Bend in their beauty Ger him;
Seen through the tear mist in his eyes,
His loved ones stand before him
AS fades the iris after rain,
In ApriPs fearful weather.,
The vision vanished as the strain
And daylight died together.
But memory. walked by Music's art,
Expressed in simple numbers,
Subdues the sternest yankees heart,
Made light the "Rebel's' slumbers
And fair the form of Music shines
That bright celestial creature

Gave this one touch to Nature
