KNOX WILL GO ID
 CAPITAL NOV. 1 Newly Appointed Supreme Court Justice Soon Enters
 Upon Duties

Montgomery, October Especial )--An- Nouncement is made that Judge John 5. Knox of Anniston, recently appointed by Governor O'Neal, associate justice of the supreme court to succeed the late Robert T. Simpson, will move to Mont gomery about November 1, to remain here during the November term of court.
 Judge Simpson had prepared opinions in all cases in which records had been submitted to him, and for that reason it is not considered necessary for Judge Knox to take up any active duties before the opening of the court.
 However, Judge Knox may probably wish to review some of Judge Sim2- son's opinions, inasmuch as he will inherit the various cases submitted to the late justice and il is possible that he may wish to revise some of the work.
 The November term of the supreme court will open on November II with the call of the first judicial division.
 The judges of the court are now busy preparing opinions in the various cases submitted to them, though it is under stood that several of the members of the court have completed their work.
 The members of the bar and other representative men of Montgomery are Knox to Montgomery. where he is well known and where he has large num- Der of warm friends and admirers.

MANY TURNED AWAY
 FROM LIVINGSTON Normal at That Place Over crowded - Prof. Black
 Opposes Co-EducatiOn

Livingston, october -(Speeial--When bama Normal college at the end of the 19l0-11 collegiate year it was thought that the college had received severe blow by the young men being barred from the college, but under the wise management of Prof. George w. Brock it was turned into a blessing. The enrolment the fol- lowing year increased 90 over the previous year and this year the enrolment of boarding students is 100 more than last year.
 When asked his views on co-educaton Professor Brock said: "I was formerly in favor of it, but after thorough test l am very much opposed to it. It Is all right for boys and girls, but believe that after they reach young manhood and young womanhood it Is detrimental to both.a
 The development of the Alabama Nor nal College along all lines has been mar vicious. There are now 300 young ladies in the dormltories and 30 more have been denied admission because there is no room for them. Both the senior and junior classes are more than twice as large as ever before. This is accounted for by the fact that large number of young ladies come here from other schools to finish.
 Professor Brock has kept his faculty apace with the growth of students and there are now 20 officers and teachers at the college. The curriculum has been steadily raised every year and the Ala bama Normal college for young ladies only offers the ultimate solution of CO., education at the University of Alabama. This college not only offers a strong acad- emic course, but fine courses in music, art and technical training are offered.
 There has always been an undercurrent of antagonism to co-education at the uni- versty among the student body at the university, among the alumni and, 1t is frequently intimated, among those high in authority at the university. and as soon as satisfactory solution of the higher education of the women of Alabama is of fered, co-education will be abolished

Sheffield October 1.-tSpecial. )-- President Archer of the Sheffield Com- mercial club, has received message from the pathfinder of the Glidden tourists saying that the night control will be in Sheffield on october 19.
