Anniston, November 13-{Special) Anniston society did itself proud Thurs day evening, when several hundred artistically bedecked men, women and children thronged the salon and entre- sol of the Alabama hotel and King Cot ton and his fair consort held court amid enthusiastic plaudits Thomas Scott Roberts, secretary of the Ade- laide Cotton Mills company, was chosen king of the carnival, and Miss Lucy Tyler, daughter of Mrs. Edmond Leighton Tyler, who furnished the cot ton used in the decorations, was se- lected as his queen. Miss Tyler was at tired in a gown fabricated out of the native staple and represented the cot ton boil, using the green sheath for the tunic and a part of the corsase, the idea being carried out in her slip- pers, hose and headdress Miss Gertruda Hambleton Shepperd, disguised as an old fashioned southern belle, and Miss katiebelle Kilby, as a Chinese lad, were selected as Miss Tyler's maids.

KOLB AN APPLICANT FOR POSITION IN THE CONVICT DEPARTMENT
Thousands of Endorsements Given Defeated Candidate for Governor. Believed He Will Be
 Named

Montgomery, November 13.-(Spe- ciai.)-Armed with the Inducements of thousands of the leading citizens of Alabama, including practically every member of the congressional delega- ton from this state and a large num- Der of state, county and municipal off, nclals, Capt. Alva Fitzpatrick of the state department of agriculture and in dustries. went to Troy today and laid before Charles Henderson, governor elect. the application of Capt. Reuben F. Kolb for the office of president of the state board of convict inspectors under the next administration.
 Probably no man who has aplied for a public office in Alabama in the last 26 years received more inducements for the office he sought than did Cap tain Kolb for the position of president of the convict board. Some idea of the number of inducements received py Captain Kolb may be obtained from the feet that Mobile county alone gave him $500 testimonials The number in other counties varied, though altogether the list of inducements Is perhaps the largest that has ever been given an ap- plicant for public office in Alabama The inducements made up three vol tunes.
 Captain Kolb was mentioned for the office of president of the convict de- partment immediately following the second primary election, and, unsoiic- tied by him, inducements for that or flee began pouring into his office rom avery section of the state,

to almost double its normal capacity. This Hartford industry IS presumably chiefly occupied with the manufacture of appa- ratus which Is needed for arsenal work in England.
 An estimate recently made by good au- thority fixes the amount in money value of the purchases made in the United States since August {, but principally since September. by the belligerent and the neutral nations, at about s250, ,0o0, ,0oo Prob ably the greater part of these purchases would have not have been made had peace prevailed in Europe. and it is certain that many of the commodities which have been purchased here by neutral nations Italy and Sweden, for instance, and to some extent Greece-woud have been bought elsewhere than in the United States had war not come.
 There are good many almost mex plicable complications in the present sit- uation here. For instance. the banks or New York sent to Canada nearly $1l,coo,- 00c in gold the early part of the week. This gold is to be utilized for the pay ment of the foreign obligations of New York city which mature within the next two or three weeks.
 Yet at the time this gold was shipped large credits were established in New York presumably for the most part with the international bankers. against wnich drafts may be drawn so that there may be immediate payment to American ex- porters for commodities bought here by the beligerent and neutral nations. This seems to be waste of energy and a highly uneconomical method of financing payment of debts, but those who are as- ute and of long experience in financing the payment of international obligations eithcr in favor of or against the United States can be utilized to offset in consid- erable measure our own debt on current account to Europe.

Kentucky to Have Building At

Fish And Game Commission

We notice in the Pinevllle Sun that
! the members of the Fish and Game Com.
mission of Kentucky met in Pineville on
April 81, instead Of Frankfort, their pur.
pose being to inspect the game preserve
started in Bell county and transact 9TH
er routine business. The mem ers oil
the Commission, all of whom were pres
ent, were handsomely received and en-
tertained. The preserve. which at pres
ent consists of nearly 300 acres of land,
fenced by cliffs and a high wire fence,
was leased to the Commission by Judge
Moss and Mr.. Vanbibber, an old sheriff,
| for 20 years for 81, with the further Of
fer of as much additional land as the
Commission might ever require. The
county court of Bell also gave $500 to-
ward the expense of fencing the land.
The preserve is an ideal tract for the
deer, with MOSES, red-bud, grasses and
abundant water. 1t will also become a
breeding ground for all kinds of game
birds, including wild turkey, and posi-
bly, fish hatchery.
The luncheon given the members OF
the Commission by Mrs. Patterson at the
New Continental Hotel Monday noon
was most elegant one and thoroughly
enjoyed, while the supper given by
members of the Sportsmen Club of Bell
county Monday evening was delight
full.
The purpose of this Commission and
the law creating it is to try to restock the
covers, the forest and the streams of our
State. No State in the Union was more
abundantly blessed than Kentucky with
game and fish in the past, but by rea-
son OF the fact that no laws were enforc-
ed for years, the game has been ruth
lessly destroyed. The Commission has
been trying for the past two years to en-
force all the new laws without making
the same odious. 1t has to a large ex-
tent stopped the taking of fish from the
streams with nets, and 1t has succeeded
in breaking up entirely the shipping of
quail from the State.
The present law needs some changes
and they will be made. The last Legis-
lature refused to do anything, and even
tried TO repeal the present law. This
comes about by reason of the opposition
of the member from Carol, whose PEG.
pie had for years known no law in re-
gard to fishing at the mouth of the Ken
lucky river.
The present intention of the Commits
sion is to do more constructive work
along the lines suggested above, to es-
tablish other preserves for the propaga-
tion both of big game and birds and to
fill again our streams with fish. All this
will take a few years. but it can be done.
Other States have done The same and
we can, if the law is enforced. Even
little Connecticut has deer shooting. If
every county manifested such interest as
Bell, only few years would pass before
the conditions in our State would be
ideal
The expense of the Commission is
borne entirely by the hunters license of

CANDlNAVIAN MONARCHS TO

Express Their Hopes That Conference

King Christian Of Denmark, King Gus.
taye of Sweden and King Haakon of
Norway, who, with their foreign min.
listers, met in conference at MalmO to
formulate plan designed to combine
their respective interests during the
war, reached an agreement on the
special questions raised
The statement is made in an official
communication issued here The com
munication in substance follows:
The meeting of the three mon
archs was inaugurated with a speech
by King Gustave, who alluded to the
unanimous desire of the kingdoms Of
the north to preserve their neutrality
and pointed to the desirabilty of linn
tied cooperation between the king
doms as safeguard to their common
interests. He said that when he in
vited the monarchs of Norway and
Denmark to meet him he was impress
ed with deep sense of the responsi.
bllity which would be incurred in rela-
tion to the present and the future if
any measure which would contribute
TO the welfare of the three pepoles
were neglected.
Kings Haakon and Christian replied,
testifying their sincere joy at the
initiative of King Gustav and express.
ing their hopes that the conference
would have good and happy results
for the three peoples.
The deliberations of the monarchs
and ministers consolidated the good
relations among the three Kingdoms
and also enabled an agreement to be
reached on the special questions rails.
ed 1t finally was agreed to pursue
the cooperation so happily begun and
to arrange, when circumstances
should occur, for fresh meetings be-
tween representatives of the three
governments.
