STRICT DISCIPLINE
FOR MILITARY MEN
Two Dismissed Without
Honor and Two Others
Fined by Courtmartial

In courtmartial held by the officers
cf Company B, Alabama National Guard,
of which Carl II. Seals is captain, two
men were fined, two men dismissed from
the service without honor, and a fifth
cleared of the charge against him. The
five young men were charged with hav-
ing been absent from a recent inspection
held by Lieut. Albert C. Goodwin, u.
S. A.
Statements to this effect were author
ized yesterday morning by Captain Seals,
who declares that it is his intention to
make military military, and elevate it
from the standard of sports.
Each of the soldiers was given trial, :"
stated Captain Seals. 1.-TWO of them were
fined 50 each Two were discharged with
out honor, which means that they cannot
again enter the service of the state. Ons
of the defendants proved that he was
absent because it had been necessary for
him to remain with sick friend, who
died the following day, and he was vindi-
Gated.
Company B is in good condition, and
we are determined to make a business OF
military in our company. In the past,
poys Lave entered the service with an
idea that it would be child's play. AS a
result, very little attention was paid to
business, and military tottered into dis
repute'
Captain Seals declared that warrants for
the arrest of the five privates We're served
by Sheriff McAdory. etfel

BIRTH IN FLORENCE
Movement Agitated by DR..
Newfield While in Tri-
Cities Easter


Florence, March l5.-(Special = The
prominent Jewish element of the tri-
cities are taking decided steps toward
organizing a B'nai Birth and are meet
ing with much encouragement. This was
agitated when Rabbi Newfield of Bir-
mingham was here last Sabbath and in
all probability will be crystalized this
week. It is with much qualification that
the synagogue has employed Rabbi New
field to hold services once each month
and Sunday school will be organized,
whereby the younger children will be
taught in the tents of their faith
Cameron Johnson of Richmond, Va,
delivered a lecture on Japan last night
at the Presbyterian church. His lecture
was illustrated by stereopticon views.
The Florence Chapter of the u d. C.
met with Mrs Gregory this afternoon
at $3.50 clock. Among the things planned
for the coming year was to make an ef-
fort to secure a cannon for the small
square in the court house grounds, where
on stands the Confederate monument.
Delegates were elected for the coming
state convention, after which most de-
lightful refreshments were served to the
chapter.

ANDREWS RESIGNS
OFFICE AT CUBA
Rapid Increase in Work
Forces Faithful Official
to Retire

Cuba, March 25.-(SpeciaD-After round
ing out 30 years of faithful service as
postmaster. H. H. Andrews, an ex-Con-
federate veteran who lost an arm at
Charlottesville, Va, has rendered his
resignation effective as soon as his sue
cessor can be appointed and qualified,
and not later than May 10.
1t is doubtful if there is a postmaster
in all the state who has made the record
that the present incumbent has. Time
after time he has been checked up and
rated as excellent" and during his long
term not penny of government funds
have been misplaced, not a register has
been misplaced, nor a money order made
wrong.
Mr.. Andrews states that he has been
compelled to resign because of the rapid
increase in the work in the past few
months, which has necesstated his hav-
ing to employ a clerk and pay him out
of his own salary. 1t is pointed out that
every department of the government was
given help as a result of the parcel post
except fourth class offices.
The public feels disappointment that
the Congress did not allow something to
the smaller offices, and general regret is
felt that this worthy, one-armed hero
of a bloody battle field must give up his
means of support because the govern
ment will not give him help enough ~
do the work. Aside from his long ser
vice as postmaster, Mr.. Andrews has been
secretary of Western Star lodge, A. r.
& A Nj. 222, for about 40 years.

TUTW|LER HOTEL
STEEL EXPECTED
Will Arrive in Few Days and
the Work Will Be
Rushed

Steel for the Tutwiler $1.250,000 ho-
tel corner Fifth avenue and Twentieth
street, will arrive within few days.
1t is said that delay on work at that
hotel site has been occasioned by the
failure of the American Bridge COM
pany to fill the Tutwiler hotel order as
great many orders We're booked
ahead of that one. The officials of the
hotel believe that the steel will be here
during the next few days and that the
construction will proceed rapidly from
that time.
The construction in the meantime on
the Roden hotel is about to the sixth
floor and is going higher fast. 1t is
expected that a force of workmen will
start on the other construction during
the next week as the steel has pro-
gressed far enough to warrant such
action.
The Jefferson County bank building
steel is being placed rapidly also, while
the general foundation construction
for the Ridgely apartments, corner
Park avenue and Twentieth street, is
almost completed.

RENEW INTEREST IN
PROGRESSIVE PARTY
Movement for Party Organ
izati0n Brings an Tn
expected Stir

| Washington, March 25-The mose
ment to bring all progressives in the
| House into a compact third party or
ganization has stirred republican pro-
gressive-repub1ican and Independent
circles of the House to an unexpected
degree Up to tonight 1S members of
the House had notified Representative
| William II. Hinebaugh of Illinois, the
active leader in the organization plan.
that they would attend the proposed
conference. at which Representative
Victor Murdoch is to be made the pro-
gresslve choice for speaker
The attitude of many of those pro-
gressive republicans denominated near
progressiyes" by Colonel Roosevelt has
not yet been determined.
| A partial canvass of many of those
who have been prominent in the ranks
of the insurgent republican forces for
the last two Congresses but who are
not officially members of the new pro-
gressive party. showed today that the
lLnajority of them had not decided
whether they would take part in the
progressive conference.
Apply for Recognition
While the progressives, as represent
ed by Mr.. Hinebaugh, have applied d.
| rect to Democratic Leader Underwood
| for recognition as a separate party in
the distribution of committee places,
the progressive republicans still are
dependent upon the regular republican
organization, of which Representative
Mann of Illinois is the leader. Some
strength was added to the progressive
organization plans today by the .rumor
that the republican leaders We're IN
clined to withdraw some of the choice
committee places from the progressive
republican members.
The date for the conference or open
caucus" of progressives, originally set
for April 2, was changed today to
April 4. Representative Hinebaugh will
go to New York within few days
for conference with Colonel Roose-
welt. The latter is expected to send a
personal message to the progressive
ter to Mr. Hinebaugh, made public to-
day, follows:
| "Mr. Dear Mr.. Hinebaugh-Good for
you. l am more than pleased with
what you have done 1t would be an
admirable thing to run Victor Murdoch
as our candidate for the speakership
and I hope that, as you have suggested
to him. as he will announce himself
as willing to accept the nomination of
the progressives for this position.
Should Act Together
Then [ think 1t would be a good
thing for the progressive party that
our men should act together and should
consult one another freely and in addi-
tion that they should keep in closest
touch with near progressives so to
act substantially on the same lines.
with the idea that they might ulti-
mately join with us. We should go
ahead with our own organization as a
separate distinct national party"

SOW OATS EARLY THIS FALL

It is not too early to b e gi n planning for getting the oats sow ed early enough this fall. Year after year oats are sowed during November or left until February or March. that might have been put in during the latter part of September or during the first half of October, if the work had been better planned.
 It is better to SOW oats in cot ton, either broadcast or in drills two drills between each row early in October than to SOW them next February. It is al- ways Ia difficult matter for the cotton and corn farmer to get the oats in early enough. but every effort practicable should be ex- erted to get them in before the middle of October and in the northern part of those sections where oats are sowed in the fall. they should be sowed by Septem- Der. Progressive Frrmer.
