ALABAMA WILL BE WELL REPRESENTED COwart Expects to Secure $100,0OO for Purpose.
 HOge Here

As a result of a conference held yes terday in Birmingham between Lee Cowart, state immigration commission er and Frank G. Hoge, United States commissioner for the Panama Pacific international exposition. it is a settled fact that Alabama will be well repre- scented at the exposition in San Fran cisco next year.
 At the present time," said MT. Cow art, q have secured $30,0O0 for this purpose, and about to close contracts which will add another $40,O00. I be- lieve that the sum in the end will be S100,000. We will have an Ala bama building, and all the products of this great state will be put on ex- hibition. I am in favor of carrying Vulcan to the fair and believe that with this giant man standing on a pe- destal of sufficient height to do him justice, Alabama will receive much very valuable advertising"
 MT. Hoge expressed delight in that every southern state was responding in patriotic manner, guarantee as he expressed 1t, that the garden spot of the world" will be on display.
 q have received today" said MT. Hoge, "telegrams from officials of eight southern states. All of them as- sure me that activity has been begun looking to erection of state buildings. There is no state with more to offer than Alabama. The opportunity con- fronting Alabama to advertise her wares and induce the immigration of worthy people from all other section 6 of the country is unlimited. I antici- pate that Alabama will have its build ing and it's building filled with pro- ducts, mineral and agricultural and mechanical, and that as a result much good will accrue to this one of the greatest states in natural resources"
 MT. Hoge declared that the outlook for the exposition was most brilliant.
 There is no question:" he added, but that the exposition will be the most magnificent ever offered in the history of the world.'

Going Deaf?
 Good News!

An engineer who had ear trouble for years, finally became so deaf he could not hear the sound of a steam engine, bells or voices. After vainly seeking relief he was compelled to give up his position. His case seemed hopeless His deafness was aggravated by head disturbances. dry catarrh, nervousness and despondency.
 To the surprise Of all, he began to hear and continued improving until he could listen to conversations. could hear a train at distance and even the singing of the birds in the trees. His head and nerves became tranquil. He got his position back again. This was no miracle; no surgery. no artificial | hearing devices, no electric apparatus no loss of time.
 Whoever is becoming deaf can obtair particulars free by writing to Edward
 Gregory, 142 H. Forbes St., Jamaics Plain, Mass. enclosing stamped self. addressed envelope. He will tell yor how he and many others have beer
 wonderfully benefited.

DEANSHIP ABOLISHED
 AT FLORENCE NORMAL

Florence, May 3.-(Special. .)-The office of dean in the state normal school here was created in order to relieve the late pr. Powers of all the heavy work con- nected with the school. Dr. J. B. Game has filled that position faithfully and well, but inasmuch as the state board passed resolutions requiring uniformity upon all lines of work in the four Class A schools, it was necessary to discon- tinue the office of dean in the normal school at Florence. It is very gratifying to the friends of Dr. Game to know he will still be connected with the school, as the board elected him to the chair of modern languages.

Weather Conditions

Birmingham, May 23.-0 p. m)-The weather is fair over nearly all central, eastern and southern sections, and cloudy areas are confined mostly to Florida and the lake states. In the Missouri valley, the northern Rockies and the north Pa cific states the weather is unsettled and light rainfall was fairly we'll distributed.
 The weather changes noted in the north west are taking place in front of low pressure center that cross the Rocky Mountains today With it's eastward de- velopment it Is probable that the unset tied and showery weather will cross the
 northern edge of the country Little change in conditions is expected in the south, but the light, variable winds and
 slowly decreasing atmospheric pressure are favorable for the formation of scat tered local thundershowers.
 With the exception of the eastern lake
 states. where relatively low temperatures prevail. the readings are somewhat higher tonight over the greater portion of the country. Changes were slight, however, and a condition about the normal for the season prevails in most of Alabama. There will be little temperature change in this state Sunday or Monday, except such as may occur with possible thundershowers | Summary of observations made at United States Weather Bureau stations

mOney Appleu tO Juuouh Dcpt
 Marion, May 23.-(Special.)-Dr. P. V. Bomar in discussing the years work at Judson, said:
 ."rhe institution has more than paid it's expenses this year. Almost sS00O has been raised and applied to the Judson debt The money cleared by the school has been applied to some debts to save in- terest, with the understanding we are to borrow it back to make necessary inn movements on the property
 It is estimated that the savings of the year were 5000.
 Dr. A. J. Dickinson, a member oi the board of trustees, spoke enthusiastic cally of the present condition of the in- stitution. In fact, he was so encouraged by the work of the Alumnae association as to suggest the idea of electing a lady board of trustees with the view of finally turning the entire property over to the women of the state; but no one connected with the school seriously considers such a move. Dr. Dickinson will, at the next session of the state Baptist convention, introduce a resolution to employ for both Judson and Howard college, professor each who shall give his entire time to the teaching of the Bible, and the salaries are to be paid by the convention.

 The play was given in three parts by 'The Mortal Nine' members of the class. First the twilight. then the midnight, and last the dawn, in which each one received the inspiration best adapted to her poetical temperament and in which offering of the flowers of incense to "senior oak" for the spirit of all seniors who have ever gathered there is made. the symbols of the muses were left for future seniors.

THE REDWING.

(Bliss Carman in May Century,
l hear you, Brother, I hear you,
Down in the alder swamp,
Springing your woodland whistle
To herald the April pomp!
First of the moving vanguard,
In front of the spring you come,
Where flooded waters sparkle,
And streams in the twilight hum.
You sound the note of the chorus
BY meadow and woodland, pond,
Till, one after one p-piping,
A myriad threats respond.
| see you, Brother, I see you.
With scarlet under your wing,
Flash through the rudy naples,
Leading the pageant of spring.
Earth has put off her raiment
Wintry and worn and old,
For the robe of a fair young sibyl,
Dancing in green and gold.
| heed you, Brother. Tomorrow
I. too, in the great employ,
Will shed my old coat of sorrow
For a brandnew garment Of joy.
