NEW FORM OF
 STORAGE BATTERY

New York, April 1s.-It was an nounced today that new form of stor- age battery is being made for the United States submarine L-s, under construction at Portsmouth, N H., which will do away entirely with the chief danger now existing in the oper ation of submarines-the danger to the crew of chlorine poisoning Other i'm provements are claimed for the new battery, among them being the length ening of the vessels under sea cruis- ing radius to 150 miles.
 It is claimed that in addition to elim- mating the peril of chlorine poisoning, the submarine could remain submerged for 100 days without danger of asphyx- iation to the crew.
 Miller Reese Hutchinson, chief en- gineer at the Edison plant in Orange N. J., who made the announcement, said the danger of chlorine poisoning was eliminated by substitution of a potash solution for sulphuric acid in the bat teries.

 Some time ago Carroll was convicted of manslaughter in the law and equity court and was released on a S2500 bail, while his case was being passed on by the su- preme court. The supreme court has just affirmed the decision of the lower court and Carrelrs bondsmen gave him up. hence he was arrested again

 The Decatur Navigation company have commenced to give reguiariy every Sun day excursions on the Tennessee river. These excursions are being well patron ized and are a source of much enjoyment to the people.
 The grand jury of the law and equity court is in session and will probably be in session all week. This is an adjourned session from February.

HUNTSVILLE

Huntsville, April 13.-(Special.) The local authorities have established to their own satisfaction the identity of the man whose bones were found on the top of the mountain near Hobbs Island several weeks ago. His name was Strickland. and he came from Odenville. In one of the pockets of the dead man was letter which con tained the name of Eula ~Hardwick, which furnished the only Clue that might lead to the identity of the body. Eula Hardwick was found at Odenville and she said that she had a middle aged cousin named Strickland, who dis : appeared from home about Christmas time, and had not been heard from since. There is no doubt that the man was murdered. His skull was 30 feet from the bleaching bones of his body, and the skull was fractured in three places. The mountain where the skeIe- ton was found Is seldom visited by anybody. and the several weeks of wintry weather that prevailed from the day of the crime. until the victim was found during the latter part of March had wiped out all traces of the mur- der.
 Mrs. John Bullard, formerly Miss Davie Graham of this city, died yes- terday at her home near Madison after & brief illness. Mrs. Bullard was a daughter of MT. and Mrs. D. w. Gra- ham. and there are two surviving sis ters and three brothers. Misses Bessie and May Graham and Messrs Lanford Graham of Chattanooga, Robert and Slaughter Graham of Huntsville.

I know you have had experience in Canaan and Hartford and New Haven and New York and other metropolitan centers, but did you ever try to open the oyster in place where everybody knew you You may have had fun in your time, but if you haven't touched the expert ence of which I am telling you, you have something rich coming to you al. ready yet. ## You say nice word for d show and the proprietor of some other play house wonders what you get for acting as press agent. *# You say nice word for politician and the friends of the other fellow immediately call you blackleg and crook. You print a paragraph about rich man and the proletariat either expresses a vocif- erous desire to jump down your throat or damns you for a social porch climber. You take the part of the poor and the rich man tells his friends at the club that you were never known to give capital fair shake. #* You mention one store in pleasant yet casual sort of way and the neighbors all explain it by saying that your wife does all her trading there and gets discount on everything she buys. You tell how we'll one girl sings and the friends of another girl tell the teacup circuit that you don't know the difference between the shrill notes Of the nightingale and the squeak of concrete mixer. You say a nice work for the suffs and the desert your wife for u peroxide fairy with corkscrew curls. You say nice word for Catholic and the town hears that you are taking instructions. You speak kindly of a Protestant and you are getting to be so bigoted in your ways. You get behind an enter prise and boost and everybody wonders what you are getting out of it. You work your blooming head off to get up to entertain others and you are called glutton for the limelight. You keep silent and you are called fool. You talk and you are called yap. You merely nod and you are called a grouch. Ycu smile and you ! are called a four-flusher. Then when 1 all is done you chuckle over it all and say to yourself: Who gives damn ? '''
