to death and a score of express and
freight cars were destroyed yesterday

of over 1000 feet.

THE ABsENT-MINDED PREACHER

A famous French preacher is very
! absent minded. He does many funny
things, about which he is the first to
laugh heartily afterwards.
One night, before going to bed, he
was looking, with lamp in his hand.
for something in the cupboard of his
dressing-room. He set the lamp on
one of the shelves. VIXEN he shut the
cupboard door, he forgot the lamp in
side. He remained a little while quite
STILL wondering; then he opened the
door of his room and said to his wife
in solemn and distressed voice: My
dear, God sends fe a great trial. I be-
lieVe / am blindi"
The great preachers wife was not
disturbed. She was used to these sud-
den calamities. Not long before, had
he not come home informing ker he
was quite lame? She discovered he
had been walking with one foot on
the sidewalk and one foot on the
street. and had mechanically kept up
the unequal step until he got home.
So tonight she just said: You have
extinguished tie lamp"
] No"

you see the light?"

HIS TROUBLES OVER AZ TER SEVEN YEARS Declares Tanlac Saved His Life-Gained Twenty
 One Pounds

W. A. Spitzer, we'll known employe of the Tennessee Coal and Iron company, living at 910 ty-eighth Street, Bir- mingham, Ala, said sometime ago: Be- fore I began taking Tanlac I only weighed 135 pounds. Today got on the scales and tipped the beam at 156-a gain of 21 pounds-and more than ever weighed in my life. That's just what Tanlac has done for me. Why, look at this belt, I had to let that out four inches and it's still tight on me.
 About seven years ago I began to have stomach trouble and attacks oi acute indigestion. My breath would get short and my pulse so weak that was afraid my heart would stop beating and they'd have to use a stomach pump on me every time I read about Tanlac one day and started taking it.
 "Tanlac not only saved my life and made me gath 21 pounds but it has built me up in every way and given me such an appetite that I'm ashamed to eat enough to satisfy it. I sleep like a log at night and am gaining ground all the time"
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- sively by Eugene Jacobs drug store and Patton-Pope Drug Co.

Mrs. Hooper Explains
 Action of Club Delegates
 on Suffrage Resolution

Selma, November 24 = (Special.) Mrs. J. F. Hooper, retiring president of the Alabama Federation of Wom- en's clubs, who, in company with the Selma delegation of women, returned Thursday night from Mobile, expressed the utmost astonishment Friday morn ing when asked by representative of the press of the reported uproar and disorsanization resulting in the closing hours of the convention over the resolution introduced by Mrs. J. E. Parke, chairman of the Alabama SuIlrage association, asking the sup port or the federation for suffrage
 Mrs. Hooper in reviewing her ruling that the question was out of order. made 1t very plain that the conven- ton in supporting her ruling after Mrs. Parke had appealed from tine decision of the chair, neither repu- diated suffrage nor indorsed anti sn1Irage, but simply sustained the ac- ton Of the 1915 convention of clubs which passed resolutions that any resolution pledging the financial SUD- port of the federation or amending it's policies 'be barred from the convention iioor unless announced and approved m the circular letter of the federation published prior to the opening of the convention
 Although the suffrage forces were stronger than the anti suffrage repre- sentatives, the question of parlia mentary law, which decided the oues- ton, was strongly upheld by the con vention, many suffra gists voting to uphold the chairs decision.
 In speaking of the incident Mrs. Hooper said: Tt was splendid vic- tory for the logical mind of the wom an or today. for it. showed that wom- en are strong enough to abide by par liamentary ruiing and keep personal ities out of the question. I do not consider that disagreement of opin. ion is disorderly. Although some con- fusion resulted from the counting of the voting strength of the convention. at no time was there any real disor

9TH BRIGADE IS
 BACK FROM LONG
 TRAINING MARCH Men From Camp Mcclellan Stand Up Well Under
 Most Gruelling Test THEY ARE LEARNING THE REAL WAR GAME Intensive Instruction ill All Methods of Fighting Being Given Under Direction of Experts-Enter-
 lainment in Plenty

Correspondents Headquarters, Camp Mcclellan, November .-(speciai,-Jer sey soldiers returned to camp today after one of the most gruelling training tests on the intensive instruction pro- gramme. Brig. Gen. Charles W. Barber and the Fffty-seventh brigade, composed of five former New Jersey national guard regiments and one of Delaware's old units, left camp Wednesday morning on a four day hike. The 5000 marchers carried full equipment and en route they were put through a series of tests giving the commanding personnel it's initial opportunity to get a direct line on the results of two months training. Col. John D. Fraser head&d the 18th infantry and Col Albert A. VanWal- raven led the 114th on the grind. The three nights away from camp were spent in the open under pup tent shelters, and at each stop field kitchens served the mess to the biggest body of soldiers that have crossed Alabama's countryside since civil war days.
 REAL WAR TRAINING
 In the opinion of French officers at
 
 hike was a duplicate of that which they will go through on the French war front eventually. The surrounding country, which was covered by the hikers, re- sembles in many respects the fighting front, and the Frenchmen class the four-day outing as one of the most realistic bits of training yet attempted.
 Anti-gas Instruction has occupied big portion of the divisions attention during the week and will be continued next week. A divisional gas house is being erected in which groups of sol diers will be taught to use gas clouds and gas masks most effectively. Spe- cialists in this department of modern warfare are handling the training and before many more weeks go by, the Blue and Gray soldiers will be acquainted gaseous attacks. This has proven one of the most interesting, as we'll as exact ing, features of the programme to date.
 M BANNER WEED
 Next week will be banner one in the history of Camp Mcclellan and in the lives of the Jersey soldiers. Pre- liminary preparations now being made by civil and military authorities to give the soldier element an ''honest-to-g good ness Thanksgiving Day celebration are indicative of programme guaranteed to drive away thoughts of home and. family reunions typical of the season In the morning divisional athletic meet will be promoted by Maj. S. a. Reynolds, divisional athletic officer, and hundreds of entries for the running, jumping and military events have al- ready been received. At noon the sol- diers will partake of a turkey feast with all the "fixin's'' at the camp mess shacks. Hundreds of the Jerseymen will

TENCH SYSTEM COMPLETE

The Twenty ninth divisions elabo- rate system of communica tin 2 trenches and dugouts has been com pleted by Col. Curtis Otwell's 1O4th engineer regiment, composed of com panies from Jersey City, Trenton, Cam den, East Orange and Newark. The two regiments of Jersey infantry have spent their first night in trench build. ing and the experience was a novel one. Under the cover of darkness, the soldiers marched to the trench sector where the system had previously been laid out by the engineers Silently and without even the comfort of a lighted cigarette, the soldiers dug away over the established lines and within a few hours had fortified themselves behind piles of dirt and deep ditches. Tn the near future whole battalions of sol- dlers will be sent to the trench scc- tors to spend a week at time. There work will be directed along lines sim liar to those in use on the front and the war game will be played with all it's side features
 Big representations of .bayonet ex- perts and grenade throwers have al ready been developed and these men are being used as instructors for units which have not completed this avenue of training Weeks of this work has qualified many of the men as gilt-edged performers
 But all is not work in the lives of the soldiers. Entertainments are be- ing held nightly in the various post exchanges on the cantonment and some of the finest vaudeville talent ever brought together on the same stage is furnished the programme. Among the enlisted personnel are men who have starred as handcuff kings, wrestlers monologists, singers, boxers, clowns, etc, in the professional enter taining world. They have volunteered their services as performers on the camp programmes and are helping ma teriaily to keep up the spirits of their uniformed comrades
 Officers clubs have also sprung up on various parts of the reservation and a policy of two distinct lines in entertainment is being followed En- listed men attend the post exchange programmes and the officers are en- tertained in their own rendezvous.

CLARK SNOW A VISITOR

One of the visitors at the canton ment, who is coming in for a lions share of attention these days, is Clark Snow, a Confederate war veteran, who is spending hisAtime circulating among the student soldiers and venturing all opinion on how the Kaiser will be treated when these boys get lover tnere." Snow campaigned with the Yellow Hammers of the F'ifty-first Alabama cavalry during the civil war and he has said that the Blue and Gray soldiers of today have it on the boys of old in appearance and enthu- siasm 40 different ways.
 Gov. Walter F. Edges visit in Camp Mcclellan during the past week served to cheer the Jerseymen up and kindle new flame of enthusiasm The key note of his stay with the boys from his home state was distinctly in formal and whatever doubts there were concerning the righteousness of killing the old state national guard to build national army units were ex- pelled by his many addresses in vari- ous sections of the cantonment His visit has resulted in thes3establisn ment of more contented feeling among the ex-national guardsmen and the unrest in some quarters prior to his arrival has vanished

TARGET PRACTICE

Target practice is slated to start dur ing the coming week, and 140oO,0a rounds of small arms ammunition are on the way here. The rifle and artil- Iery ranges are now complete, and Mai S harmon, the divisional range officer, has his officers from the various units ready to handle the 30,000 soldiers who will be turned into sharpshooters. This department of the training is receiving the major portion of attention just now, and the scores of crack rifle shots from the five states represented in the di- vision will be used as instructors. There are many men here who have never han died a rifle of any kind but on the other hand there are hundreds of com missioned and nonconmissioned officers who have qualified as sharpshooters and experts in pistol and rifle fire.

Why Sash Windows?

Our mode of life is based upon our
theories. Our sash windows are prob
ably the most irrational things in crea-
ton. They appear to have been first
invented in Holland and brought over
to England toward the close of the sew
enteenth century in place Of the ration.
al French windows 1t must have been
a curious person who invented the for
mer, which are often dangerous owing
to the breaking of the cords. while a
draft is always pouring in between the
two sashes. What their advantage Is
no one can understand. On the other
hand, French windows, as will be cas-
lily seen anywhere on the continent or
in Egypt or elsewhere, may be closed
to exclude either draft or noise. More
over, seldom If ever do we have double
windows such as are used through
out northern Europe.-London Science
