Three 10-inch saws were smuggIed into the jail in box of candy, ac- cording to other prisoners in the jail, who declare they refused to join the trio. The escape was made about 8 o'clock.
 The men first sawed their was through the ceiling of their cell and then cut the bars to window open ing on the jail grounds.
 An investigation Is being made by the sheriff to determine who snug gled the saws into the Jail.

cient supply of nerve force or nervo-vitsl fluid, it is wofse than foolish to waste your time taking mere stimulating medicines or narcotic drugs Your nerve and brain cells must have nerve food or something to supply more nerve force the same as a starving per- son must have bread to build flesh and tissue. For centuries science has searched for d nerve food. At last . remarkable product was brought to the attention of the Paris Academy of Medicine by celebrated FrencA physician which contained the principal ehentJ teal constituent of active living nerve force in| form which most nearly resembles that sa' the brain and nerve cells of man. This re- markable product is today contained in Nrx-l ated Iron 90 that you may now easily obts 'nl what might almost be termed artificial nefvel force simply by taking two tablets ofsNuxat cd Iron three times a day after meals. Nuxated Iron also contains organic iron like the iron inl your blood and like the iron in spinach, lcntils| and apples. Organic iron enriches the blood and plenty of rich red blood mesns more nerve force, 90 that Nuxated Iron not only directly supplies the important chemical con'l stituent of active living nerve force to the nerve and brain cells but 1t also stimulstes the blood to manufacture greatly increased supply of new nerve force.
 Over four million people are using Nuxated Iron annually. From the remarkably bene fcial results which 1t hassproduced. the manu factukers feel so certain of its efficacy that they guarantee satisfactory results to every purchaser or they will refund your money Beware of substitutes. Look for the word "Nuxatcd" on every package Nnated Iron for the blood and nerves k sold by all drug. gistA

 Replying to the operators charges, MT. Glasgow declared the coal oper- ators had placed deputy sheriffs in their hire and charged the operators with attempting to stir up trouble in union fields.
 "The operators are not altruists," Attorney Glasgow said They will not sell coal for the smallest possl- ble price. If they can stir up trouble in the union fields what do you think would be the demand for coal from them and what price would they get?"
 "Is that threat of a striker" demanded A. M. Belcher, counsel for the operators.
 I'm not saying" Mir. Glasgow re- piled. But If a contract between the operators and the union miners is broken, l don't see how they can be prevented from laying down their picks"
 The court gave no indication of when 1t would render a decision. Meanwhile, Judge Anderson's injunc- tion stands suspended since his in- junction was merely temporary, tho whole case. which was built upon bill filed by the Borderland Coal Cor poration and 62 other operators of Pike county, Kentucky, and Mingo county, West Virginia, will later to appealed for permanent decision.

G0RDO IS RAPIDLY DEVELOPING INTO
 IMPORTANT CENTER

Carrollton. November 1s.-The town of Gordo, located IA miles northeast of this place on the Mo- bile and Ohio railroad, is rapidly be- coming one of the most important towns in this section of the state. For the past year or two it has been enjoying substatial growth, both in business houses and residences, and today others are under construc- ton. The business houses have been built either of brick or concrete, and this section of the town impresses the visitor with the fact that the, citi- zenship is composed of wide awake and progressive merchants.
 This section of the county is made up largely of white farmers, who have, during the past two years, sue ceeded in making good crops, espe- cially cotton, and this commodity has been marketed in Gordo. where there are several cotton buyers represent ing firms who offer the best prics obtainable. Surrounded with these conditions, the merchants have pros pered. and they are endeavoring to show their appreciation by erecting good business houses, assisting in this manner in making their town one of the best in west Alabama.
