FOUR ARE RETURNED
 TO REFORM SCHOOL

Lexington, Ky, January 12.-Four or the E truants who escaped from the Green dale Reform school, near here, last night were captured in Lexington this morning and returned to the school. Nine boys are still at large. It is believed they have taken refuge in nearby towns.
 The boys escaped early last night. Search for them was immediately begun, as it was feared the runaways. who had taken country roads, would be overcome by a blinding snowstorm. The boys cap tured here had spent most of the night in the cold Two or three of the boys were caught before they could get away from the campus.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
srrhe Bachelor


 To the Editor of The Age Herald;
 A bachelor is an uninvited. unexpected and unprovided for piece of humanity. which has no real meaning in the realm of progress and civilization. He has no lawful pedigree of which he can boast or be proud, He seems to be entirely Tout of order and purposes to terminate his lineage at Just where it stands" He don't believe in running things too lar, and is utterly opposed to populatng the Vhtire globe with worthless humanity like some folks.'.sAnd so far as he is concerned, human machinery, for lack of ways and means' of legitimate opera ton, simply shuts down." Isn't it glor- ious blessing that we are not all bache- lors.
 I think if there is any epoch in the history of the world for which we should all rejoice and praise both God and manS 1t is the time when old Father Adam sev- cred his relations with "old bachelorism, and started out to become a full grown up maii Behold the result, Just sup pose Adam had made up his mind to re- main "eontented" bachelor. Where and what would we be today? I am so glad that Adam had sense enough to know "a good thing when he saw 1t, apd that at least some of his descendants had cour- age enough to follow suit" But the poor bachelor has much of my sympathy. He has never heard the lovely and melodious pea1s of the guardian angel mother-in- laws voice coming in rapid dlctation as to what ''shall' and what shall not be "carried on' around the premises. He has never felt the electrical current of love and affection gently rippling up and down his quivering spine from a pair of nice little icy feet. the owner of which is his own dear better half.' who ad- heres to the divine right of planting her cold foundations upon the small of the back of one whose noblest title is the head of the family" He may be a wise guy on many subjects, and may really know good deal about the outside world. But he is perfectly ignorant of the real joy and bliss there is in being told exactly "what to do,' "when' and just how to do it."
 He is not an amphibious being by any means; neither does he live altogether in salt water, but is rather kind of "hot air wonder, which the wisest heads have desperately failed to understand. The bachelor properly comes under the head of unfinished business" He is absolutely naught for the good of the order" and is entirely "out of order'' for new DuSfiless. But we are glad to note in conclusion that the present set of bachelors are now forming an organ ization, the sole purpose of which is that they may study and more thoroughly uri- derstand the ''scence of extinction" They have my hearty approval. And all who wish to contribute to this worthy cause may simply drop me a card, giving your idea as to the best way to perfect this noble undertaking. With all confidence and sincerity. I am theirs for the good of the order" ROB ADAMS,

Life Losses at Fires

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Reading the account of the Equitable. Life building fire, I find that five persons lost their lives, among them being battalion chief. Did these men lose their lives in trying to save life or in trying to save property? Is a man, whether he be a fireman or policeman, expected to risk his fife to save property? I ask the question simply for the purpose of ascer- taining how far man is expected to pro- ceed in the line of duty when property is at stake. F. l. MONKS.

FOUR TOWNS BID
 FOR HIGH SCHOOL
C Commissioners to Decide Between Guntersville, Arab, Grassy and
 MeltOnville This Month

Albertvilie January 12.-(Special.)- )-The state high school commission will visit Marshall county on January 26-27, for the purpose of locating the county high school. Four towns in the county are bid ding for the school, Guntersville, Arab, Grassy and Meltonvlle. It seems that the fight lies between Guntersville and Arab, the former place having issued bonds and built an up to date school building, and offers. to donate that to the state, while Arab has offered large tract of land and other inducements to have the school located there, and sthe fight between these two towns is attract ing interest throughout the county.
 Large crowds are stiIi attending circuit court here, and several interesting civil cases have been disposed of. Next week will begin the criminal docket which is very light, and it will not take more than two or three days to clear the dock eJ, and it is likely that several civil cases that could not be reached this week will be postponed until the latter part of next week.
 Reports coming from Boaz are to the effect that the new municipal water plant which was installed short time ago is running nicely and giving entire satisfaction. The town authorities, too, are contemplating putting in an up to date electric light plant at an early date. Sufficient funds are now in the treasur- CTS hands to install the plant.
 The water plant was copied after one in Albertville. and the light plant will be done the same if built The little town ;n l1,tll linor New residences and business houses now being erected.
