Anniston. April 17-( Special. )-Rome beat Anniston in the opener here this afternoon by taking advantage of wet grounds and bunting in the ninth.

 Umpire Lauzon showed in the initial game here this afternoon that he in tends to enforce his decisions this year and prevent the trouble the South eastern had with umpires last year.
 Manager Fisher protested very ve hemently against the decision calling Roberts out for cutting second, and was benehed While the Annistonians believed the umpire was wrong in his decision they applauded his intention to keep order

CARIBOU COMING BACK
Seen in Maine-Puzzling Return of
 Moose To Michigan

It is interesting to note how the various animals shift and change location for different reasons or for no apparent reason at all. Tt is said on good author ity, for example, that caribou are re- turing to northern Maine. There are still some regions in Maine where caribou should find food, and with good food supply there is no reason why they should not exist there for many years-that Is, if man himself does not make clean kil-out for the notoriety it gives.
 Upon the authority of a deputy warden moose are reported in Michigan. It has been many years since moose or caribou were sen in this state The caribou in former years had a fashion of crossing upper Lake Huron on the ice, the hoof of a caribou being so formed that the animal may walk on ice readily without slipping.
 But moose do not have this pecularity and the only source of supply would seem to be around the western end of Lake Superior from Ontario or straight across country from Minnesota. This would hardly seem probable now as the country through which they must come Is settled and portions not settled are the seat of camps and summer homes during spring and summer and until the fall hunting is over. Thus a present source of suppry for moose in northern Michigan Is diff cult to determine.
 A bunch of four moose was reported as being in the country pjust north of the straits in the upper peninsula. This would either require a trip, as stated, across from Minnesota, around the lake from Ontario, or swim across the upped part of Lake Huron or the river near the "Soo" The current is very swift in the river and it would not seem that moose could possibly swim at this point. It will be an interesting diversion to get down the atlas and study on the matter.

Electricity for Gothard Railway

Work is to begin shortly on the electri- fication of the St Gotthard railway and the first piece of line to be electrified will be that between Erstfeld and Arolo. The cost of identification of the Gothard line is put at e2,7000O0. from which, however, the sum of roughly e220,0OO must be de- ducted for new rolling stock necessitated not because of identification but by in- crease of traffic.
 The three new power stations which must be built, one in Amsteg, one in Goshenen and one the largest on .he Ritom lake. near Piotta, will cost eS54,S00; the necessary electric installations in the machinery houses, etc. another f305, 200, while a considerable sum is allowed for unforeseen contingencies.

MISS MARY RUTH M'LESTER
 IGNORED AT LUNCHEON

Miss Mary Ruth McLester has been beautifully complimented since the am nouncement of her approaching mar riage to Mir. Andrew Ramsay. She has been the inspiration of a number of luncheons and other events will also have her as the central figure. Yes terday Miss Marianne Hamilton gath cred the members of the bridal party together at the Country club for a dainty luncheon. The central motive was big inverted garden hat filled with flowers from which hoated pink tulle dra perics. There were eight bou- quets of pink sweet peas and were drawn by the respective guests.

Tn the familXlcf centuries it is a precocious child, and, what is more, 1t is a girl'' But here she spoke with deep appreciation of the men of the century. They are better brand of men than those of any other century. They are demanding a better brand of politics. They are improving along every line of human endeavor-navigating the air. sending wireless messages. struggling against appetites as never before. There is no mother or sister, wife or sweet heart who does not wish for man every endowment All women want to be proud of all men.

Two of our people have abundant
reason to be thankful that they list
ened to the arguments of an insur-
ance agent, recently. for each of
them received a mighty nice fat
check to indemnify them for their
l)ss of time by illness. 1t also
proves that none of US is bullet
proof" or immune from sickness.
1t still further shows that we have a
home company in South Dakota
which docs things and does them
rhythm other words. that it pays
claims and paws them promptly.
Along about Jan. 25, j. w. Helti-
bride, local agent for the First
National Life ard Accident Insur-
ance Company of Pierre, induced
Charles |. Odle. III popular County
Auditor. to take out an accident and
health policy. The premium was
insignificant, for that kind of pro-
lection does not cost much TO carry.
In February Mr. Odle was taken III,
and had quite a seige of sickness.
Last week Tuesday he sent in his
claim for ldemnlty, to the Company,
and on Friday, along came his check
for $111.00. Concerning the mat
ter, MIR Odle says:
Il wish to acknowledge the very
prompt settlement of my claim for
my recent illness -$1l1.00 being due
me. 1t is a pleasure to recommend
a home company that is just as
gladly willing to pay just claims as
it is to write new business"
j. M. Magness. the we'll known
auctioneer of st. Lawrence took out
a policy about the same time.
Jim" made a business trip to st.
Paul. a month ago, and was unlucky
enough to become exposed to small
pox, was quarantined, and tied up
for nearly three weeks. HIS broth
err Ben notified the First National
Life and Accident Insurance COM
pany. through its local agent, Mr.
Heltibridle. and as the result Mr.
Magness received a very nice fat
check to reimburse him for the
time he lost. He also is one of the
strong boosters for this institution
and this kind of insurance.
The First National life and Acct
dent Insurance Company is a home
affair with $3.50, 900 capital and over
half a million dollars of assets.
Judge Loring E. Gaffy is the Presi-
dent, which is in itself sufficient
guarantee of its integrity and the
square methods of doing business.
j. w. Heltibridle of Miller is the
agent for this vicinity and will be
pleased to explain its policies to any
one interested.
