culture has approved revised form
of the grazing regulations which gov
ern use of the national forest ranges.
In the opinion of the department Of
flee, the most important departures
from the old regulations are found,
first in the fact that provision Is
made for recognition of permanent
national advisory board representing
the sheep and cattle interests, which
will confer annually with the secre-
tary of agriculture concerning graz
ing matters.
Secondly in the laying down OF
rule that on forests where the quail
ity Of range and advantages for rails
ing cattle and sheep are equal, the
yearling rate for sheep after the
season of 1911 will be 80 per cent of
the yearling rate for cattle.
Before deciding on the grazing regu-
lations, Secretary Wilson invited rep
resentatives of the two great national
organizations of stockmen, the Ma
tional Wool Growers Association and
the American National Live Stock AS
sociation, to present their views to
him on grazing matters and to make
any suggestions which they might
wish to offer concerning the proposed
regulations.
AS a result of this conference with
the representatives of the stockmens
associations, number of changes
were made in the details concerning
the conditions under which owners
may surrender. transfer or renew ap-
plication for grazing privileges. Both
the department and the stockmen are
anxious to prevent speculation in graz
ing privileges, and suggestions for
minor notifications of the rules Of
fered by the stockmen to this end
were readily accepted.
At the request of Senator Warren,
the secretary of agriculture has di-
rected the bureau of public roads of
his department to cooperate with the
Good Roads Club of Douglas, Wyo., in
the proposed construction of an OBJ
ject lesson road in the vicinity Of
Douglas.
The bureau of public roads is work
ing with good road clubs through the
country to better the general condi-
tion of public roads by cooperating
with local organizations in sample
good roads construction. 1t is ex-
pected during the coming season that
mile of sample road will be con-
structed in the vicinity of Sheridan.
Wyo., and a like distance near Doug
las.
Senator Warren has requested the
secretary of agriculture to rescind a
recent order issued by the forest SER
vice cutting down the number of sheep
from 225,O00, the number allowed for
1910, to 212,5OO for the coming graz
ing season in the Hayden and Routt
forest reserves, Colorado and Wyo.
ming. He also requested that the
grazing charge be modified so that the
rate will not exceed five cents per
head for the grazing season.
1t is represented that the grazing
area of these two reserves is not fully
utilized and that large areas of good
grazing go to waste annually because
the forest service will not admit a
sufficient number of sheep IN the re

She went to the drug store and got
some salve, but she grew constantly
worse. She was scarcely able to look
IN. the light. At last she decided to

hardly work any more. The doctor
said It was very severe disease, and
II she did not follow his orders close
" she might lose her eyesight. He
made her eyes burn and applied elec-
tricity to them. and gave her various
ointmenta. In the two and half or
three months that she went to the
doctor, we could see very little i'm.

My opinion is that the two worst evils
Of modern society, especially as affecting
our womankind, are the craze for bridge
and motsr cars. Bridge is ruinous to the
morality and sober life Of the fair sex, for,
if anything, gambling gets to be bigger
mania with women than with men. I was
at New England resort last summer
where the women played bridge all day
long and far into the night, scarcely TAX

Anniston, October 16.-(SpeciaD.-The decisive scores by which the Preds of the Alabama Presbyterian college have clean- ed up in their last two games, the only ones they have played this year since the completion of their organization, is regarded here as proof of the fact that they have the best team that they have ever put on the grid.
 In the game here Saturday afternoon, the Preds were outweighed by several pounds to the man, and it looked gloomy for them as the. two elevens lined up for the kickoff; but Hannon has got onto the inside workings of this new style of football and he has adapted it to the old Pollard tactics so as to make his team excel in open play.
 Not only did the Preds outplay the Bir- mingham Medical college boys in that B to game in open play, however; they went through the line for long gains, Boy kin having ploughed through once for 70 yards, shaking off five tacklers on his way toward the goal. This Gadsden boy, son of Solicitor Boykin of that city, is the mainstay of the Pred eleven. He played with Howard college last year

RAIN DAMAGES
 COTTON CROP
Local Cotton Man Says Yesterdays Rain Will Lower Grade of
 Late Cotton

Yesterday morning when John s. Turner local agent of the McFadden Brothers, cotton brokers of Philadei- phia, received information of the rain storm raging in the gulf and southern district of the state, he spoke as fol lows, in reference to the effect this weather would have on the cotton mar ket:
 "rhis rain will lower the grade of cotton considerably for 1t will damage the late crop that is still in the fields by beating it down into the dirt. Cot ton has been moving through our of fees at the average rate of 1400 bales daily which is not the best of the. season with us. The cold weather will prob ably see the market really lively as many farmers have stored their bales for better prices and many have not yet picked their full crops. which will suffer in this rain.'

WILL CONTINUE
 AS POSTMASTER Oliver Will Fill Position Until Permanent Appoint
 ment Is Made 2

By special request of the postar of- | fidYals in Washington, George C. Oliver, the local bond company representative who has been acting postmaster since the death of the late J. H. Montgom- cry, will continue to act in that ca-
 pacity until the permanent appoint
 ment, is made.
 Under the provisions of the bond executed by the bond company the term of the company's agent expired in two weeks. It was extended in. the Bir-
 mingham situation, and yesterday a
 special request was made that Mir. Oli-
 yer continue his services as Birming- ham postmaster. He said yesterday that inasmuch as the government had
 made the request, his company had in turn asked him to continue the work. Since assuming the work of postmas- ter, immediately after the tragic death of the late J. H. Montgomery, Mr. Oli- yer has discharged those duties with great satisfaction to the business peo- ple of Birmingham. He has become
 very popular with the employees, and many of them have publicly expressed the wish that the temporary scheme might be continued definitely How ever, MT. Oliver has said with unmis- | takable emphasis that he would not
 accept the post under any circum- stances.
 Regarding the postoffice situation it | is said that all opposition to T. H. Aldrich will disappear soon. That no l appointment will be made until Con- gress meets in December is the gen eral impression. It is said that both
 Referee Long and Referee Barker have
 named MT. Aldrich, In that case, it | is said to be foregone conclusion
 that MT. Aldrich will be appointed

SOME HICKMAN

The principal actors in this farce comedy were Messrs. Enoch Warren and Jim Daley, who drew pay from the police department. The "supe' ac- tors were two white men and two negroes who were arrested and the scene was all the way from Southside to the police station in an old dilapi- dated hack.
 The horse to which the hack was hitchted was a real good imitation of the real thing. The only thing he lack ed of being a horse was locomotion and little flesh. Barring this, he was all there. The hack was a sec ond edition of the "One Horse Shay and is alleged to have been used by Noah in overseeing the animals in the ark. Its condition was exceedingly dilapidated.
 Jim and Enoch. as everyone calls them, were plugging along to arrest 0 negro for disorderly conduct when they came across another negro who was slightly rowdy and was driving the hack. They arrested the heck ne- gro and then arrested the other negro They started for the station, when they ran across two men of lighter color who did not want to go home until morning." They, too, were piled into the Daley & Warren private patrol Then began the fun.
 All wanted to sing a different song and in a different voice. The result was beyond description. All this ac- counts for why Officer Warren is tell ing everyone that Officer Daley is some hackman."

PRED SQUAD IS STRONG

and is going at an even better clip this year than he did with Howard.
 The line weakness which gave trouble at Georgia and in the first game here this season, was not noticeable Saturday Those two Freeman boys. Underwood and Crosby, were on their jobs. M. Brown playing a steady game when put in later in the game, while that Archibald boy at center played the best game he has play ed in the past two years, frequently breaking through for tackles behind the line.
 In the game Saturday. Leach was miss ed in the boot work and Sankey, although running the team very well and playing a good game, did not have the signals down as pat as the Tuscaloosa boy. Trot- ter, Flowers and Creighton are being de- pended on to advance the ball from the backfield, while Captain Brown and Campbell starred on the execution of for ward passes Saturday, Nathan playing a good defensive game when put in at end.
 The Preds are still trying to get in 0 game with lHoward college, whom they have made exceptional offers. The How ard boys do not seem anxious to meet them, however, and it is doubtful If they will get together this year. The Preds believe that they can wallop the Baptists and are eager for chance

stop. Thomas sent a grounder to Fletch- CT and Plank smiled as Marquard sent him back to the bench on three pitched balls.
 Davis took Doyles grounder unassisted | in the sixth. Then Snodgrass sent a | fast single down the left field foul line | Lord raced after the ball and when Snod- | grass got near second he found Barry | by a great throw by Lord, had the ball
 and was watinfi for him. Murray struck out.
 Lord had gone out on a fly to Snod- grass and Oldring on a long drive to Devore in the second half of the sixth when the break up came. Collins drove pretty base hit to left field and the crowd called on Baker to bring him home. Baker allowed two balls to go by him and then Marquard sent up one that just suited the best home run hitter on the Athletic team. The ball sailed high over the right field wall and Collins, who was off with the crack of the bat, trotted ahead of Baker. Marquard kept his nerve in the face of the three to one score and struck out Murphy.
 It now took two runs to tie the score and the Athletic rooters began to sing. Merkle hushed them by sending single to center on the first ball pitched. Her ZOE flied to Oldring and Fletcher was an easy out to Baker. Merkle was caught mapping, Plank to Davis.
 In Philadelphia's half of the seventh Davis drove a liner to Doyle and Barry lined to Herzog. Thomas sent a fly to Fletcher.
 Meyers sent terrific drive to Col lins in the eighth which the second sack CT held on to and Crandall, who was sent in to bat for Marquard, went out Collins to Davis. Devore struck out for the fourth time.
 Plank and Lord struck out in the eighth inning for the American leaguers and Oldring, last man to come to bat for the home team, was out, Herzog to Merkle.
 New York made a desperate attempt to do something in the ninth, but it was futile. Doyle fouled to Thomas. Snod- grass struck out and Murray sent an ug
 y grounder that Collins snared and tossed to Davis.
 Both teams returned to New York to- night
