DECATUR

Decatur July 2S.-(Special )-Emmet Taylor, white man, was arrested yes- terday by depty sheriff on the charge of changing his name to defraud. He was released under $250 bond
 The two Decaturs are making war on the dogs of the two cities. All dogs not registered and muzzled are being killed in the two cities. Already the police have killed a large number of dogs.
 What seems to be wel-founded rumor says that the Louisville and Nashville rail- road shops hefe will soon commence to work six days a week. Should these shops go back to six days work a week 1t would add several thousand dollars each month to the pay roll of the 25O0 men em- ployed there.
 IL has been announced here that within the next 30 days the Postal Telegraph con pany will put in long distance tele- phone service in the two Decaturs. It is ments to connect with all the independent telephone companies in the United States
 E. c. Payne, a well-known lumber deal CT of the Deca aturs. has closed a contract for the lumber to build a residence for a party at North Tonowanda, N. r. The lumber will be shipped at once
 The peculiar feature of the story is that the lumber was grown and cut here in Alabama. and that two carpenters from the Decaturs. Jim Bunch and Will Sam uels, will go to New York and build the house.
