After TWO hours heated debate the state

nv a vote of 2 to / to amend rule II,
paragraph X, Of It's rules and regulations
so as to permit any oil mills located

The meeting of the board here yester-
day was inspired by the action of a spe-
cial COMMITTEES from the Chamber OF
Commerce, composed of John l.. Parker,
chairman; j b. Gibson and r. II. Ewing.
This committee said that the proposed
quarantine of the boil weevil by the state
board of horticulture Disseminated
against Birmingham in favor OF Selma
and Montgomery. 1t was later found that
Montgomery was also left on the outside
of the proposed line, and that both Bir-
mingham and Montgomery cotton seed
oil mills would be unable to buy seed
from the regions under quarantine. Sell
ma was on the inside of the line, how
ever and could buy seed from any coun-
ty whether under quarantine or not.
The proposed quarantine, line extended
50 miles east Of the line of the preceding
year and the action OF tho board yester-
day IN extending the new line 100 miles
beyond the old line puts both Birfning-
ham and Montgomery on the inside of
the new line and enables mills at those
places to draw seed from the infested re-
gions. BY this decision, % more cotton

PLANS A
 CITY BEAUTIFUL

ETfaula. April Especially matter of paving Broad street and the intersect- ing business thoroughfares is the subject of some discussion among the citizens It is not at all improbable that the question will receive some consideration at the hands of the incoming council as the park ing now going on will render the drive ways so narrow that 1t may warrant such an expenditure.
 There seems to be a spirit prevailing on all sides to make the city beautiful
 The county board of revenue has under advisement the matter of remodeling the county jail at Clayton so as to have it conform to state requirements, and work is expected to begin in that direction soon.

attempt to destroy what was evidently a climax of surpassng charm in which she symbozed this Venus not as mere weak woman, enticing, alluring, but the warm, breathing mother woman, carrying not shield but a little child to lead the world upward by the hand.
 She told the history of the woman ques- tior from the beginning of time, through the ages when, with no freedom of mind, woman was kept mentally inferior to- man; when from positive cruelty she was advanced to the position of child or chat tel; how she was subservlent} to her father until she married, then changed to subserviency to a husband. If she did not marry, was sent to a convent; If lwld- owed, was subservient to her son. She told how in England woman was lesislated for as for a slave through many years; then of the feudal system of the develop ment of romance and of romantic love, which, she says, will never die, and it's effect in bringing more kindness to woman, still the inferior. Of the Renais- sancc she spoke, and it's broadening of the woman's horizon, and her means of culture. the liberty of education and cul- ture which 1t brought to the rich and well born.
 And gradually mems political freedom developed, as Miss Johnston pointed out But woman all this while could have no voice in the government, could have no influence in directing affairs which af- fected children could do nothing without man $ supervision; all the while she bowed her head in submission and did his tasks. The franchise has been granted to men who have been slaves, but it never occurred to man that woman might govern herself, might even like to gov ern herself. And so she stayed where she was put by some early magnate with a club,' said Miss Johnston. as she ran rapidly through the strides made in the last few generations-of the first suffrage convention held in America. of the eman- cipation of women in various places, of the work of John Stuart Mill in behalf of the cause; of many interesting facts

 The sprirgtme place cards were in scribed with quotations from "The Long Roll" Miss Johnstons latest book. which, in it's opening pages, pictures the spring season of the year with exquisite beauty. On one was:
 .The light lay warm on the Richmond houses-on mellow red brick, on pale grey stucco. It touched old iron-work balconies and ivv-topped walls. and it gilded the many sycamore trees and lay in pools on the heavy leaves of the magnolias."
 This was the quotation on still an- other card:

MISS STRINGFELLOW
 WEEDS MIR. GEORGE CAMPBELL

The marriage of Miss Kathleen String fellow and MT. George Gambrill, an nouncement of whose engagement was made less than week ago, took place yesterday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the residence of the brides parents, MT. and Mrs Harry Eldredge Stringfellow, on Fourteenth avenue south. The relatives of the young people and a few very in- innate friends witnessed the VOWS. which were simply, but with sweet dignity pronounced.
 The rooms were tastefully decorated with pink roses Following the ceremony, and preceding the departure of the young people for brief wedding trip, ices and punch were served
 Mrs Stringfeow received her guests, with MT. Stringfellow, very informally. She was attractively gowned in white-a filmy material garnitured with lace. The occasion was less like a wedding than like cordial afternoon gathering together of good friends. There were no attend ants Miss Stringfellow was attired for travelling in a tailored gown of one of the new bue shades, and "a spring bon net of the type that suits her attrac- tive and unusual face. She carried a bouquet of My Maryland" roses, their pink shade contrasting prettily with the blue of her gown.
 Mir and Mrs. Gambrill left yesterday afternoon for a bridal trip, the destina- ton of which is known only to them selves They stated to their friends, how ever. that they would be absent but a week They will make their home here. Mir Gambrill is a young civil and cleo trical engineer who is well known and popular in both club and business cir | cles. His bride as member of the young
 CT set has been a decided favorite. She
 is a member of distinguished Alabama
 family and has a number of prominent
 connections both here and in Montgom- cry a former home.

 This lovely bit of word painting marked another card

BIBLE STUDIES OF BROOKLYN
 TABERNACLE
By PASTOR RUSSELL

"Apostolic Succession Unscriptural." Mark iii, 7-1s; Matthew V. 1S-16
 Text: "Ye did not choose Me, but ] chose you and appointed you, that ye should go and bear fruit."-John KY, 16 (R. VI
 Today's lesson shows the particularly with which the 12 apostles were chosen. Many were the Redeemers followers at times, both men and women, but only the F were specially deputized as His moth pieces and representatives. Some of the things said to and respecting them are equally appropriate to every one Of Jesus followers, but other things said to the 12 and respecting them apply to aoS others of their day nor since-as, for instance, the Savior said to the 12, and to none others, "Whasoever ye shall bind on earth shalll be bound in heaven, and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven" Matt. xvi, 19; xviii, 1S
 The import of these words clearly Is that the persons indicated were assured that they would be so specially guided of di- vine providence in all their efforts that they would set forth as the divine will amongst men nothing to which heaven would assent. And, on the other hand, they would declare not binding upon the followers of Jesus only such things as in Gods sight would not be binding. In these F men. therefore we recognize a plenary inspiration, or special guidance not accorded in this particular degree 10 others of the 'brethren."
 We do not forget that Judas was one of the original F and that proving traitor ous, He went to his own place." We remember also that he was specifically referred to by the Prophet David, through whom the divine message came, that an other would take the apostleship which Judas forfeited. What we do claim is this: That the announcement was pro- phetically made a successor to Judas, so as to teach us that the appointment of his successor was exceptional and not the rule; that aside from this one case there would be no successors.
 Surely there is no intimation in the New Testament that as one after another Of the apostles died other men were recog- nzed as succeeding them. On the con. trary. the scriptures repeatedly refer tc the Twelve apostles of the Laia0.' Moreover, as the Jewish dspensation be- gan at the death of Jacob in the recog- milton of his 12 sons, so the Christian dis pensation began at the death of Jesus ir the recognition of His 12 apostles And as cne of the tribes of Israel was cut of and is not mentioned in the enumeration in tho apocalypse, but the tribe oi Manasseh substituted, so amongst Jesus Apostle Judas is dropped and a successor is appointed,

DEATH
BY A MIRACLE
Engine and Four Cars Pass Over
Charles Harris, a Travelling
Man At Pocatello.

Pocatello, Idaho, Oct. 10.-How a
man could be run over by four heavily
loaded cars and suffer only a slight
scalp wound and no other abrasion is
puzzling a number of people in Poca-
tello today.
Charles Harris, travelling man, had
that experience here this morning
The man was unfamiliar with the
grounds of the depot and tried to get
to town by direct method, but came
in contact with the wire fence recent
ly erected by the company. He then
turned and started for the depot, but
fell in front of switch engine under
the charge of Foreman Long and En-
gineer Mcneil,
Before the engine could be stopped
the entire four cars had passed over
him. In some miraculous manner he
escaped serious injury and today is
about his work as usual.
