ITEMS OF INTEREST
FROM TALLADEGA

Talladega. May Especial 1.-The
Ifoughton property, at the corner of
East and South streets, has been put
upon the market for sale The Metho-
dist church wants the property for
church purposes. Many consider it an
ideal spot for a Y. NJ. C. A. building.
Last year there were more than $50
delinquent tax payers of city taxes but
this year the list was cut down to less
than 90. The written statement of de-
iinquents filed by the city clerk shows
that the city taxes have been paid to
within less than $500 of the entire
amount of taxes due. The remaining g
towns and cities of Talladega county
have no delinquent tax payers, at least
no list of delinquents have been filed.
The bulk of the court house officials
win ENJOY an annual outing at Rush
ing Springs. north of Talladega on May
.. Each year the court house people
resort to this spot to examine the
Waterpower, and wonder at Mr.. EN-
bry's futile efforts at cooking.
The Goldberg & Lewis Mercantile
company was incorporated Thursday
with a capital stock, all paid in of S4e,-
