GERMAN
LANCE IS
A WONDER
(By Associated Press.l }

Manchester, England, Nov. 90
Among the most interesting of the
war trophies that have found their
way over here. says the Manchester
Guardian, "are some specimens of the
German lance 1t is not a wooden
poles but an eleven or twelve foot
steel tube. 1t is very heavy and at
first seems quite unmanageable to
man of ordinary strength. But two
thirds of the way down from the
head towards the butt is wrapping
of thick twine to give a grip And
if you hold it there, and there only,
you find that it is so evenly poised
that, as one admiring observer re-
marked you could write your name
with it.
There have been some descrip-
tions of cases where these tubular
lances have erumpled up in action
like an overburdened steel mast on al
racing yacht. Perhaps that may be
accounted for by the peculiar shape
Of the head. There is no point or
spear head of any kind Instead
here is a solid piece of iron shaped
exactly like the end of a giant poker, {
square and quite blunt"

 about an ultimate restoration of now greatly disorganized forces.

 financial matters has been largely con | splcuous by it's absence, and the ar rival of much needed rains has helped cotton, late corn and other late plant ed crops.

AUSTRIA G|VESHE
 SIDE OF WAR ISSUE
Says War With Servia Not Responsible for Eng
 lands Action

London, August 14.-605 D. m.)-The Exchange Teegraph's Rome correspond cnts sends an outline of an official com munication from the Vienne government to Rome notifying the Italian government of Great Britains declaration of war on Austria. The Austrian note says:
 "Austrias S war against Servia, an inde- pendent state, for a cause which did not
 affect international politics, cannot be
 considered as the cause for the present European war"
 Great Britains note to Austria, the statement continues, fails to point out the fact that Austria was obliged to de- clare war against Russia because the lat ter's mobilization threatened Austria. It is denied that Austria sent troops to the frontier, a fact, the statement says, which France already knew from the Austrian ambassador.
 'It is evident the notes concludes. "that Great Britain's alleged reason for declaring war not only are arbitrary all terations of facts, but deliberate lies. England has thus lightly broken her tra- ditional friendship with Austria in order I to support France but nevertheless she 1 will not find Austria unprepared."

Montgomery, August s14.--(Special) ) The state pardon board today refused to recommend communication of the death sentence imposed on Erwin Pope, Call houn county negro, convicted of kill ing James McClurkin. white farmer of Oxford. The three members of tho board voted unanimously that the ver- diet of the. lower courts and the sN- preme court should stand. In it's letter to the governor the par don board declared that the trial judge and. solicitor believed that Pope was guilty of the murder and that the crime was a heinous one. The board said that frye juries in Calhoun county have re- viewed the evidence against Pope and while it is all of a circumstantial na- ture. it points strongly toward his guilt
 Pope will be executed next Friday unless the governor interferes He has been sentenced to die five times and four times this sentence has been re- versed by the supreme court.

BALDWIN FARMERS
 WORK ON HIGHWAYS

Bay Minette August H-(Special) While it is generally conceded that much work was to have been done on the roads of the county today and tomorrow. and even with the Baldwin County Good Roads association urging every one to assist during the good roads days, it is doubtful whether or not half of the work that was expected was done. The farmers in some localities drug their section of the road, but for the most part, 1t was considered too hot to get out and do much. However, it is believed that enough work was done throughout the county to make the good roads days worth while and a regular yearly ob- servance of the day or days, will meet with good results as it is believed the people will become used to the method and fall in line.
