Walden has been named to succeed

n. G. Wells, OF Beech Bottom, has
disposed OF his Beech Bottom low lands
to the whitaker lessner company, OF
Wheeling. About 40 acres Is included
in the deal. The price paid was $780,.
900. This deal has been hanging fire
for some months. The Wells bottom
lands are the last at Beech Bottom 10
be disposed Of, as the rest Of the prop.
erty has been sold to other companies.
Some days ago SheriR.elect Will
Dudley appeared before the Wood
county court in regard to the amount
OF his bond. Heretofore the bond has
been 100000, but Mr.. Dudley was OF
the opinion, that under the new deposi.
tory law, that this amount would be
excessive, and further that the surety
companies demand premium OF SO
per $1,000 on bond while the law
provides that the court can pay not to
exceed $3.50 per $1,000.
The county court took the matter
up with State Tax Commissioner
Fred o. Blue, as to the amount Of the
bond and also In regard to the pre-
MUM. Mr. Blues reply, received this
morning, follows:
Replying, beg to say that the stat.
ue fixes the penalty of the bond
to be executed by the sheriff for
! the collection and disbursement of
county and state taxes at not less
than $4,000 nor more than $3.50 900.
| &c in "A
disbursement OF school taxes at not
less than $4,000 nor more than $780,
900.
81 do not feel disposed to suggest
to the court what amounts it should
fix as the penalties of the sheriff's
bonds. The court is on the ground,
knows the situation better than do.
and, therefore, is in better position to
( fix a correct amount so as to protect
the public interest. OF course the
penalty OF the bond in either case can
| be less than 100000. If the court,
\ however, is of the opinion that bond
| in each case with a penalty of less
! than $4,000. amount heretofore fixed,
! is sufficient. it will be perfectly salts
! factory to me. In fact. can see no
good reason for heavy penalty with
our present depository law.
"As to :hG payment OF premiums on
the sherifl's bonds. ] have to advise
$3.50 per $1,000. have no way to
control the amount OF premium that
sura.y ComhSny requires. The only
course left for the sheriff to pursue. If
he does not care to pay the excess
Of $3.50 per $1,000. is to execute a per-
sonal bond that will be satisfactory
to the county court"

DECISIONS ANNOUNCED BY
 THE STATE SUPREME COURT

Montgomery, January 2O.-(Special)
 Failure of the county of Montgomery to present claims against the city of Montgomery within two years from the date of their accruaI cost the county $26 S7673, according to a decision of the supreme court today
 The county's claim against the city grew out of an illegal payment made by the board of revenue of various sums out of the road. and bridge fund.- of the county Four separate payments were made The first was for $10,000, and made in 1908; the second for the same amount was made in the same year. The third and fourth payments were made in 1910.
 The money was paid under a misap- prehension of the law, and when the mistake was discovered the county sought to recover. The city protested the payment on the ground that the claim had not been presented within two years from the date of their ac- crual, as required by law. and the cir
 cult court of Montgomery county de- cided in favor of the city. The higher court in a decision handed down today affirmed the trial tribunal
 The supreme court, in another decis- ion. decided against the city of Mont gomery. This decision was rendered in the case of the city vs. Mrs. Lula M. Ross who sued for damages for per- sonal injuries sustained in walking off a street. The plaintiff sued for $20,000 and recovered $3500. The higher court affirmed the judgment of the lower court.
 The court affirmed the decision of the DeKalb circuit court in awarding $1500 to Mrs. Beulah Foley of Fort Payne for damages sustained in freight car of the Alabama Great Southern Railway company in DeKalb county.
 The court handed down number of cases today, but most of them were chancery causes and suits for damages There was also a list of rehearings Following are the cases handed down:
