 AUSTRIAN RULE Signor Battisti Urges Italy to Free Italian
 Provinces

Rome, October 25.--(2:35 p. m.)-Signor Battisti, socialist deputy from Trent, Austria, described in public address to- day what he termed the frightful condi- tion of the Italian provinces under Aus tria. He declared the people were worse off than during the wars of Italian nber- ation, and urged that Italy free them from Austrian rule.
 The deputy lauded Emperor Nichola for his offer to liherate under certain con dirions Austrian prisoners of war who are of Italian descent. This called forth a great demonstration in which the Elm peror was loudly cheered.
 Other speakers made similar remarks. but differences of opinion among their hearers resulted in several scuffles. Po- lice and troops promptly suppressed the disorder.
 The prisoners of Italian nationality, who will be transferred to Italy under the Elm perors order, number 5000, according to report received at the Austrian and Rus sian embassies.
 It is said they may even be delivered to Italy without condition, although the first proposal was that they would not be permitted to return to Austria.

London, october e5.-(o:05 D. m.I-To facilitate transportation of troops and supplies the Russian army has extended broad gauge railroad lines across the Aus trian frontier and a considerable distance into Galicia, according to Bernard Pores, professor of Russian history and litera- ture at the University Of Liverpool, act Ing as the British governments corre- spondent at Russian headquarters. In a report under date of october 2i he says:
 T have spent some days in Austrian ter totory conquered by the Russians.
 .'The Russian broa d-gauge railroad has been carried some distance into Galicia, and further railroad communication with the Austrian lines and cars is in working order.
 '.The large waiting rooms are filled with wounded in stretchers. Doctors and Sisters of Mercy are in constant attend snce. The wounded utter no sound except in few cases.
 "I talked with three Hungarian priyates, keen-eyed and vigorous. They said their men were very good with the bayonet and seldom surrendered.
 Though 1t seems the Hungarans do not consider the war as national beyond inc Carpathians, they fight well because they are warlilxe and not because they like this war. Prisoners were very en- ergetic in praising their treatment by the Russians. These were the only Austrian prisoners with whom I had seen trace Of national enthusiasm for tie war

SOME EARLY GLIMPSES
 AT NEXT LEGISLATURE
MT. Sims of Talladega Is Discreet, Which Explains Why He Is Forty and Unmarried
ny uUGH ". RoBEn,S

l Talladega county, which is the Eighth
 senatorial district of Alabama, will be represented in the upper house of the legislature by a very discreet young
 man. His name is Marion Hayes Sims
 and he is a lawyer.
 i MT. Sims, when interrogated by The Age Herald, promptly replied to all questions concerning himself. He gave his age, the town of his brith, his busi- ness, and the extent of lis political in- diligence. But when the questions con cerncd the course which lie will pur- sue in the legislature, he closed up like the proyerbial clam. In this connection. we have proof that two men may view the same subject at angles entirely diff ferent- The questions which were pro- pounded to MT. Sims were also pro- pounded to ". W. Morris of Daleyille who will represent Dale county in the lower house of the legislature Mir Nor ris declined to answer a single ques- ton regarding himself, but when mat ters affecting the state were touched upon, he quickly abandoned his re- ticence. He gave as reason why he had declined to answer personal oues- tons, his modesty, and his natural de-. sire to avoid unnecessary publicity, or obtain any free advertising"
 But because Mir. Sims differed from MT. Morris is no argument that Mir. Sims is not all right. As matter of fact, he is said to be quite an agreeablee fellow. True, he has not married as yet, but as he is comparatively young in years, there is no doubt that still a chance for him remains.
 MT. Sims was born near the city of Taliadega, December 13, 1874 and is therefore approaching that delightful state which is best described by tHos. three pungent adjectives, fiat, fair and forty. He was educated at the Univer--
