Say Boil Weevil
Has Been Killed.

Florence, Ala; Feb. 9.-With the
Thermometer flirting obout the ze-
70 mark for several nights since
Feb. l, it is the opinion Of experts
in this country that the boil weevil
has been temporarily at least deliy-
cred a Knockout blow. The pests
made their appearance here during
the past summer, and much appre-
hension had been caused for the
cotton crop Of next summer. II,
however. the cold weather has killed
the advance guard and set him
back for year it has demonstrated
that this Is not a healthy climate
for the weevil. and hence this is de-
stined to be the great cotton belt Of
the country.

Thrown from TreStle
Guard Breaks Legs

Adam Garren, private in Company
|. Srd Oregon infantry, while guard
ing the Southern Pacific railroad
bridge at Graves creek, about mile
and one-half from Leland, was hurled
off the bridge by an unknown man
whom he had halted late Tuesday af-
ternoon. He fell fifty feet to the
ground, suffering compound fractures
of both legs. The affair is shrouded
in mystery.
Another private of Company I,
whose name is said to be Covey, was
patrolling the other end OF the bridge
and had his back turned at the time
Garren was thrown from the bridge,
When he did turn around he saw the
stranger running away and Garren
lying on the ground beneath He
started in pursuit of the stranger, but
the latter had too much of a start and
easily got away. At that time Covey
was not really sure of just what had

out any warning pushed him from the
structure. He said further that the
other soldier on duty pursued the
stranger.

Civic Club.

The $6,OOO.0O0 bond issue was
ably and spiritedly handled at the
Civic Club Tuesday by the following
ladies': Mesdames Bowers, Peil, Pc
rozzi, Dill, Lamkin and Winter in the
affirmative and Mesdames Rowland,
Rocho. Gard, Lamb and Putnam in
the negative. Good roads carried the
day and only three out of the crowd
of interested spectators remained
neutral at the end of the debate. It
is a work of progress when women
delve into the great political issues
of the day and solve problems for
themselves. The speeches showed
deep research and the able and ami
mated manner in which the subject
was handled reflected great credit
upon the women of Ashland. The
next meeting of the club will be a
reception to the new members in the
park on June 12.

The Home of the Red Cross.


On February 3 the national head
quarters at Washington, D. c., were
moved to the beautiful new marble
building on Seventeenth street. This
building, dedicated "In memory of the
heroic women of the Civil War" was
erected entirely from funds appropri-
ated by congress and from funds
given by few friends of the Red
Cross expressly for this purpose. The
total cost was 100000 Congress
appropriated 100000 and friends
gave the other 100000.
1t is an imposing structure of white
marble supported by line of tall
Corinthian pillars. 1t is back from
the street in domain of its own, oc-
cupying the square between the gal
lery and the Memorial Hall of the
Daughters Of the American Revolu-
tion.
Its ranks of broad windows, set
like panels in the wall, and wide, in
viting entrance, suggested it to be the
executive office of some great branch
of government. This legend appeared
over the portals: "In Memory of the
Heroic Women of the Civil War"
Leading up from the entrance is a
broad stairway. In the first landing
is tablet of marble on which is in
scribed these words: "a memorial
built by the government of the United
States and patriotic citizens to the
women of the north and to the women
of the south held in loving memory
by a now united country that their
labor to mitigate the shfferings Of
the sick and wounded in war may be
perpetuated. This memorial is dedi-
Gated to the service of the American
Red Cross"
