and Ed Spelce Charged
With Bribery

Huntsville, November 20.-(Special) )--EY.
Mayor r. Earl Smith. Circuit Clerk David
d. Overton and Ed Spelce, a we'll known
soft drink dealer, have been indicted by
the circuit court grand jury, now sitting,
on charges of bribing voters in the mu-
nicipal election of September 10. Twelve
true bills were returned by the grand
jury Wednesday afternoon, representing
two days of Investigations, and 1t is un-
derstood that all of the bills were against
the three men above mentioned. They
have been placed under bonds.
Navigation between Guntersville and
lower points on the Tennessee river is
again in a precarious state, owing to the
unusually low stage of the water River
men are pessimistic over the outlook and
say that the present low stage is not due
so much to the drought as to the oper-
alton of the big dam at Hales Bar, near
Chattanooga, which is holding back most
of the water With the big dam in opera
ton they don't believe that the river can
be depended upon for summer and fall
traffic.
Hunters in this section have had poor
season for sport so far The ground
and grass is so dry that 1t is hard for the
dogs to do good work, and few birds can
be found In the fields. 1t has also been n
very poor season for ducks up to this
time.

small cabbage, u green tomatoes, two
green peppers, one stalk of celery, four

one cup of boiling water. Mix sugar and
cornstarch together. Rub in the butter
and moisten with a little cold water. Put
upon the stove and add boiling water,

must prepare first by grating the yellow
rind), juice and the inside, all except the
seeds and white rind. and boil with the
rest of the filling. Pour into a baked
crust then beat up the white of one egg

Recipe for Penper Hash

thought had the recipe but find have
not. Could you repeat it or mail it to me ?
I am afraid If I wait to see 1t In print
may be too late. ANNIE P. s."
have told you by mail that it is con-
trary to rules to send recipes by mail.
The formula you ask for was published in
reply to another correspondent. Lest you
may not have seen it. I repeat 1t here:
Wash and dry five large green pep
pers and one red. Cut them open. re-
move the seeds with care, without letting
them touch the sides, and chop the
emptied peppers fine. Cut up and chop
the white heart of a large cabbage and
mix together peppers and cabbage. Add
two tablespoons of brown mustard seed,
three tablespoons of salt, one of sugar,
and cover all with good cider vinegar.
Stir up thoroughly and put into wide
mouthed bottles, 1t may be used in two
days and it will keep all winter. From
your remark that you fear it will be too
late to put up the hash if you wait to
see it in print, I assume this is what you
would have. Green peppers may be had
in city market until late in November.

so eager to hear their programme, in
an equal number of selections.
1t was a fortunate circumstance that
led the club to introduce two sucn
delightful singers at one and the same
time since, in both art and personality
they have completely captivated local
music lovers and will be accorded
probably a more cordial welcome than
any singer who could have been Sc

A perfect night, the surroundings of a
lovely home and two popular young people
as the principals in a nuptial ceremony
made the Lutz- -Enslen wedding last night
one of the most notable occasions of the
autumn season.
The girls in the bridal party were
chosen from the younger set in three
Alabama cities, and we're the fairest rep
resentatives of girlhood in these cities.
The men were as representative of So
eiety and business success in their respec-
tive homes.
The ceremony occurred last night in the
drawing room of the Enslen residence, a
handsome marble edifice on Highland ave-
nut. An altar was constructed in front
of the console with canopy overhead
twined with smilax and studded with
white chrysanthemums and lilies of the
valley At either side stood a seven
branched candelabra, and making a back
ground for these two great vases filled
with Easter lilies on their stately stalks
shone waxen white in the candle light.
White chrysanthemums were massed in
this room, and throughout all of the apart
ments other blossoms composed one of the
most elaborate decorative motives ever
seen at a home wedding in this city. Smi-
lax was draped everywhere, over case
ments and doors and windows; roses filled
baskets and tall vases, and lilies breathed
out their delicate perfume.
The bridal party descended the broad
stairway, which had at either side tall
white standard filled with lilies. Big bows
of tulle were caught about them, and
the three little boys who made the aisle
caught the ends of the misty white fabric
and carried it to the drawing room to
make path for the bride and her at
tendants Charles Warner Koenig, Berry
Baugh, Jr., and Hubert Scruggs were the
three handsome little white clad pages
who performed this office.
A 'celio, violin and piano, from David
sons orchestra, heralded the coming of
the nuptial party, who, with the exeep-
tion of Mr. Lutz and his best man, de-
scended the stairway. Mr.. Joseph Mudd
and Mr.. Elliott Knight. the first grooms-
men, led the way to the altar, followed
. by Miss Clara Belle Lack of Mobile, and
she in turn by Miss Joy Tomlinson.

IF you prefer orange. for instance, y%l-

When asked If there was any de-

women in the choice of colors, the
psychologists reply was that men and

women than 1t does TO men.

ALL THINGS CONSIDERED! !!
By DOLLY DALRYMPLE

Steps forth DR.. Hollingsworth, profess
sor of psychology at Bernard college,
who models to the effect that he has
evolved a color chart which tells a num-
Der of things about women, that they
don't suspect.
For instanoe:
This psychologist can tell your age, even
If you've followed all the Lillian Russell
and Mary Garden rules for beauty that
their clever press agents" have ever
written, and you have tried to eliminate
all the tracks that Old Father Time has
seen fit to leave upon your several faces.
The theory is very simple:
The learned gentleman merely asks you
what you favorite color is-the one that
appeals to you most-and having discov-
cred this piece of knowledge, he has
you ticketed and labeled, and the "jigs
up as far as your secret is concerned.
Immediately he knows your age.
Straightway with a precision that is
