CH|LTON COUNTY
 FOR UNDERWOOD
Jury Commission Recently Appointed Elects Clerk.
 Serious Fire Averted

Clanton, February 5.-(special.)-The or ganization here last week of an oscar Underwood club seems to have sent Ala bama's favorite son way above par fin so far as popularity is concerned among the voters of Chiffon.
 The club was organized with an en- rollment of something over 100 names the first night, to which at least another hundred names have been added in the past few days
 Those in active charge of the club are now making arrangements to organize Underwood clubs in every precinct of the county, so that by the time the county primary is held in April every democratic voter will be familiar with the candi- dacy of Alabamas presidential aspirant
 The jury commission recently appointed by Governor O'Neal, consisting of Messrs. W. D. Spigener of Clanton, W. c. Dyer of Stanton and J. A. Mahan of Clanton had a meeting in the offices of Senator Curry last Friday and elected <E. E. Galloway, a law student here, to s0cceed MT. John vanDerveer as clerk of the commission.
 serious conflagration was averted here this morning by the prompt action of C1anton's bucket bragade The city haj no system of water works and no fire fighting apparatus so that when a fire does occur every one grabs bucket and starts for the nearest pump or well.
 Promptness this morning saved the Gamble Hardware company and perhaps the entire east end of the business part of the town.

 and Southeastern

Montgomery, February 5.-(Special.)- Announcement is made by w. M. Blount, president of the Birmingham and South eastern railroad, that>20 miles additional track of this road will be built at once, thus getting that road that much nearer to Birmingham. which Is to be the north tern terminus of the line. The additional track will probably be constructed In the section of Milstead and Eclectic, as engineers have been recently. engaged in locating stations at Tallassee and Ec- lectie.
 So far as has been learned. it is not known just where the new line will enter Birmingham, though it is announced that the Seaboard Air Line railroad may grant permission to the Birmingham and South eastern railroad to enter. the Magic City over it's tracks.
 The new railroad is the extension of the old Union Springs and Northern, which formerly connected Union Springs with Fort Davis. This line has been ex- tended a distance of 20 miles from Fort Davis to Milstead, and the additional 20 miles of track will carry the road that much nearer to Birmingham II is the ultimate purpose of the owners of the road to have a line running between Bir- mingham and the gulf.

ID BUILD BRIDGE
 OVER OHIO RIVER
Announced That I. C., l.. & N. and Frisco Are Plan
 ming S2,OOO,OOO Bridge

After failing to secure control of the New orleans, Mobile and Jackson rail- road which line was secured by the Louisville and Nashellle and Frisco lines i. is apparent that the Burlington has not given up hope of touching the gun coast by some means, it is said. As an indication of that fact is the announce ment made yesterday that the Burlingtoh' with the Illinois Central, Louisville ana Nashville and Frisco had agreed to con struct a bridge over the Ohio river at Peducah, Ky, costing about S2,0Oo'Ooo. The bridge will be used by all interests and will prove an important step in the New Orleans, Mobile and Jackson new exten- siGns as well as the probable Burlilstoii entrance to the coast.
 The bridge will be constructed by the Kentucky and Illinois Bridge company officers of which will be of the four foaus named. Its construction will save the owners of the New Orleans, Mobile ana Jackson a heavy expenditure III thelr eA- tensions, will allow that line to perfect the new Florida and Panama service con templated, will serve adequately the Illi- nois Central and will permit the Burling- ton route over the river whenever a. road is bought up in the south and im- proved to suit the managers of the Bur lington.'
 The erection of the Peducah bridge is the first improvement given out by the Frisco and Louisville and Nashville for the New Orleans, Mobile and Jackson. This is expected to be followed by state ment of the extensions in concrete form. President B. l.. Winchell of the Frisco has already stated that the new railroad would be built, but did not say when it would be started
