From a Widowed Mother

Readers have not forgotten the sad story
of the widowed mother of a young girl in
a hospital. The mother is a milliner and
asks us to look up a girl who would
watch her shop for a few hours day
while the owner is absent upon other
business. In return she would teach the
girl how to curl feathers and other parts
of the trade. This Is the second letter: Il
am glad to know | have one friend. l am
alone and have dear little girl II years
old who has been sick for seven months
In a hospital, / opened up without dol
lar; got my fixtures and furniture and
all my goods on time-thanks to the
good name l had when in business several
years ago. have the sweetest little girl
She will be Is >en July 8. but looks like
a child of IA and acts like one. Here is
thing, and is especially good for taking
blood out of garment: Peroxide OF n.y.

it to stand little while, then with a
clean cloth wipe dry. M. NJ +.
With thanks for the household hint
thrown into the tale of your loneliness
and the dear daughters sweetness and
sufferings, please accept the sincere SYM
pathy Of the Corner. You say it is
comfort to think you have one friend In
the strange city viii you not believe that
many who read our talks really pity your
desolation and that we would fain be of
further help to you? l shall be happy
to pass over your address to any one who
would care to write to you additional as
surarce of this truth, or to call upon you
if they may be allowed to do it,

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Record of Ninth Alabama

TO the Editor of The Age-Herald
In your issue of Thursday, July 10, un-
der the head of ''Hotel Lobbies," is an
article headed, "Cleaning Up Pension
Rolls" This article is from the pen of
the son of a Confederate veteran. Among
other things he says: 1.-THE Ninth Ala
hama infantry had a most splendid rec
ord and yet the R. r. prints a dispatch
during the Gettysburg campaign from the
federals to Washington, saying. Two sar-
geants, deserters from the Ninth Alabama,
came In and gave valuable information
from the Confederate movements" For
the information of the public and the
truth of history I desire to say that on
July g. 1868. the day Pickett made his
famous charge, that was in command of
the Ninth Alabama regiment, and IL there
was any soldier or soldiers that had de-
serted and gone over to the enemy that I
had no information of it. We had pris-
oners captured there like all the other reg
fments had. but hardly think that q true
Confederate veteran would have been CIV
ing valuable information to the enemy.
even IL he had been in possession of such
information. l am sure that there was nc
desertion from the regiment prior to the
battle; If there had been it would have
been reported to me at once.

ATHLETE GIVES UP
BLOOD FOR ANOTHER

Chattanooga, July I1.-(Special.) 1.-THE
first case of blood TRANSMISSION in this city
took place early this week when DeForest
Spencer, star athlete of the University
of Chattanooga. allowed more than a quart
of his blood to run into the veins of Mrs.
Sarah Musk.
The woman was suffering from per-
nicious anaemi and the attending physi-
clans stated that the act OF the young
athlete alone saved her life. Mrs. Musk
underwent a similar operation in st. Louis
about seven months ago. Attending phy-
sicians do not know whether her improve
ment will be permanent or not. At present
both she and Spencer are resting easily.

chosen blossoms being the field clover.
Little hampers filed with bonbons marked
the place where each little girl sat, and
the ices were served In candy kisses.
A contest in which, blinded, the children
clipped from a tree, preceded the dainty
repast, and the first prize, bluebird,
was awarded to Miss Yankee Slbley,
while the second prize, a box of Japanese
stationery, went to Miss Mary Peters,
The guests included Miss Myra Belle

AUTOSTR|KES MULE;
OCCUPANTS HURT
Several People Have Mar
row Escape When Machine
Goes Into a Ditch

Wetumpka, July 11.-(Specal)-InS an
automobile accident on the Ferry road
several Wetumpkians were injured late
yesterday afternoon, but nobody was Sc
riously hurt
A G. Ruffin was running his car and
had Gary Thornhlll and the Misses Mar
garet and Lola Gamble and Margaret
Macon out driving.
A mule ridden by a convict became
frightened and plunged at the car, the ma
chine was injured, the mule killed and
each of the cars occupants sustained cuts
and bruises. Black eyes and sprained
ankles are reminding the autoists of their
narrow escape from death. The mule sue
ceeded in pushing the machine out of the
road into a ditch.
Circuit court has been in session in We
tumpka all this week with H. r. Golson as
special judge. Most of the cases tried
have been for minor offenses.
This section enjoyed a heavy rain this
afternoon, breaking a drouth OF several
weeks duration. 2

COTTON IRREGULAR
DURING THE WEEK
No Decided Tendency Evi-
denced-Sentiment Con-
fused by Conditions

New York, July 1.-THE cotton mar
tlxet has shown no decided tendency dur
ing the past week Sentiment has doubt
| less been confused by political uncer-
tainties, such as the continued histili-
ties in the Balkans and the fear of
anti futures legislation in the country
while crop accounts have been con-
fiicting and the somewhat less favora-
BILE character of trade reports have been
offset to some extent by the strength
ening of the old crop situation. Early
in the week there appeared to be ten
dency to sell on the failure of the
July condition report to create any
fresh interest on the long side, and
feeling that the crop was short but
moderate declines were followed by
covering on reports of dry hot weather
in the southwest. Toward the weekend
favorable private reports served to re-
lieve apprehsion as to the immediate
progress of the crop. A favorable break
ing of the Indian monsoon Is consid-
cred satisfactory feature from a
Lanchasire trade stand point but re-
cent advices from Europe claim that
continental spinners are meeting very
little forward demand for their goods
owing to unsettled conditions in finan-
cial and general trade circles and while
the English have been moderate buyers
on declines, the demand from that
source has not been active enough to
create any general bullish sentiment.
Advices from the southwest indicate
that the hot weather is restricting the
spread of the boil weevil and at the
same time Fastening maturity. Hous-
ton reported the first bale of new crop
cotton this week and reports from
Austin claim that picking in south Tex
as will be general by the end of next
week. Bearishly disposed operators,
however, are said to be rendered eau
tious by continued reduction in stock
and the talk around the ring has sug
gested a more or less general tendency
to await developments or nearer view
of the new crop outturn.
