BELGIAN RULERS
 VISIT NIAGARA
Spend Half an Hour in Can ada as Guests of the DO-
 minion Government

Buffalo, N. Y. October 6-The queen of the Belgians was enthralled today by the mighty cataract of Niagara. Tine cordial semi-military greeting given
 the Belgian rulers by Buffalo was de- lightful to them. but it was the memory of the great falls her majesty will carry with her longest and of which she ex- claimed most often to those in her en- tourage.
 King Albert, his consort and the duke of Brabant, their son, came as near to playing this morning as royalty can come and they revelled in the demo- cratic freedom of the pilgrimage to Niagara Falls They overCtayed by two hours the time allotted to them there and even then were reluctant to leave. His majesty was seeing the falls for the second time, but he was manifestly happy at being able to show them to his wife.
 As for the crown prince, he seemed to be having the time of his life. He Jagged behind the servants of the household and the Kings valet, who were trailing at a respectful distance, and then skipped out of the path to run past them over the rocks without a thought of royal precedence. The royal party saw all there was to see and saw it thoroughly. To gain a more comprehensive view of the Amer lcan side, they crossed ahead into Can ada for half an hour as the guests of the dominion government. As a cour- tesy to the Canadians, the American of ficers attached to the Belgians stopped in the middle of the international bridge, where the Stars and Stripes and Union Jack waved side by side.
 Exploring the cave of the winds probably was the most thrilling expe- rience her majesty has had since she left the battle lines, where she served her people as deyotedly as did their King.
 They donned oilskins just as have countless Americans. The King wore a yellow jacket and brown oyeralls. It was intimated there were no yellow

BOYS PUT CREOSOTE
 ON NEGRO YOUTH

Several mischevous boys puts quan- tity of creosote on a negro boy about IA years of age at the fair grounds early last night causing such an irritation and burning that doctor had to be called. The boy was carried to Thomas drug store at Fairview station where he was attended by .Dr M. D. Simmonds. While his injuries are not serious, the pain and itching were so severe that the negro became hysterical and tainted. He rail- lied after medical attention and went to his home in Bessemer.

Heflin and exerted himself wholly in attacking the league and the democratic party. He declared the ex- istence in Alabama of strong anti league sentiment.
 This statement prompted Represent tative Oliver of the Sixth district to re- mark that the league of nations was not the only issue of the fight. that tick eradication was an issue of interest equally as live. Whereupon Represen- tative Caraway of Arkansas made the point that it was perfectly natural that a republican should oppose tick eradi- cation, for q republican in the south was regarded with the pity that one manifests when observing tick-in- fested COW.
