THE JEWISH LADIES
Preparing for Grand Event Rabbi Marx Again in the City-Two
 Balls on Tapis.

Whenever a question is raised in Bir- mingham Jewish community regarding the welfare of the temple the ladies are imme- diately to the front. Last year by their efforts they retired 5000 from the indebt- edness of the congregation even amidst all the hard times and tightness of money. They are now about to proceed in practi- cal way to reduce still further the interest bearing debt of the congregation and be- fore long will make the same known.
 Friday evening Rabbi Marx az in as- snmed his pulpit after two weeks ab- sence at the convention of American He- brew congregations at New Orleans. h a most elaborate manner he laid the work of that convention before his congregation and suggested many good movements as the outcome of that meeting.
 The Ladies' Aid society will give ball for the Sunday school children on Thurs day evening, December 27, at the rooms of the Young Mems Hebrew association.
 The Young Mems Hebrew association will give their annual full dress ball on Wednesday evening next at their own hall.

TUSKEGEE TATTLE.
The Whisky Question-Blind Tiger or Open Barroom-A hurch on
 Fire-Personal Notes

TUsKEGEE, Dec. 15.-[Speciai orre- spondence. 1.-The question as to whether or not our town should have blind tigers or open Darrooms has been the prevailing 2 topic of conversation during the past few weeks. It is a fact well known to every one in this community that whisky is being sold and has been for many years, and that the grand juries have proven utterly powerless to prevent it. A petition was recently gotten up and, with but few exceptions, sigued by every white voter in the town favoring repeal of the law i, but owing 10 the Alabama conference, which has always taken such a decided stand against repeal, on account of the Alabama Conference Female college which is located here. it is uncertain as to what the legislature will do in the matter.
 The pastors of the Methodist and Baptist churches here are divided on the prohibi- tion question. Lust Sunday Rev. r. Y. Abernathy, after concluding his sermon, made a powerful argument in favor of pro- hibition. Sunday night Rev. G. A. Horn aday, pastor of the Baptist church, ex- pected to say something on the subject, but there being so few out on account of the indictment weather he decided to wait until Sunday morning. He, Of course, like many others, is in favor of prohibition If the law can be enforced, but thinks barrooms pref erable to blind tigers.
 There came very near being another fire here Thursday night. This time 1t was the Presbyterian church. Services had just commenced when some one discovered fire in the ceiling where the stove pipe entered. The alarm was given and there was great excitement for while. It was soon extin- guished, and the pastor went back and fla ished his prayer meeting.
 Mir. J R. Wood and MT. s. O. Hale, editor of the Tuskegee News, are bo:h can didates for the legislature, to fill the unex pired term caused by the death of Judge Holt. MT. Hale is in favor of repealidg the prohibition law. He will doubtless be elected.
 Several handsome new residences have recently been built, and many others i'm proved. Work on the three brick build ings that were burned sometime ago is progressing rapidly and will soon be com pleted. s-sss-

is hereby set aside to meet the interest on bonds of this city due January 15, 1895.
 MT. Kettig seconded MT. Msade's sub- stitute.
 MT. Sims thought this an inopportune time to bring up this question. He said the city had not yet defaulted on it's bonds and when 1t had done so would be time enough to consider this matter, and he moved to lay the whole matter on the table until the next meeting of the board. The motion to lay on the table prevailed by a vote of 8 to 0.
 MT. Crawford rendered his resignation as clerk and treasurer. Nh. Kettig moved that 1t be not accepted. MT. Crawford in- sisted that it was necessary for him to be away from the city the next fifteen days, and on motion of Mir. McCartin the resig- nation was accepted.
 The mayor said every official about the ble, and he wished to thus publicly thank MT. Crawford as well as the others for the favors thus shown him.
 MT. McCartin moved the appointment of a committee, consisting of the chairman of the finance committee and two other alder men, whose terms began on December 6 instant, with authority to employ such clerical assistance as they may deem neces- sary, to examine the books of every city official and report the same back to the board. The resolution was adopted.
 MT. Keltig, chairman of the finance committee, and Aldermen Sims and Jack son were appointed on the committee.
 MT. Kettig moved that the board go int executive session to elect officers, which prevailed by vote of 9 to 4.

 THE REPUBLICANS.
 Those republican leaders-Messrs. Mose- ley, Hughes, Vaughan ct aI.-were anx- iously hanging around the city hall, await ing results of the executive session election the result was announced declaring that promises had been broken or pledges for gotten. They declare they will have some- thing to say about this matter.

THE NAVY PROBLEM.

A SOLUTION OFFERED WHEREBY THE DE-
 FACULTY MAY BE ARRANGED.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The report of the new plan of reorganization of the navy, which will be presented to the house Mon- day next, has been prepared by Meyers of Louisiana. It states that under existing conditions, it is claimed, naval officers can not achieve command rank until they are so far advanced in age that their power of adaptability and responsibility is either impaired or lost. In order to relieve con- gestion in the higher ranks of the navy, which it is said results from the large num- Der of officers from the rank of lieutenant commander to captain, and who are grad. uates of classes from 1860 to 1868, the report recommends:
 l. To make vacancies by removing con- siderable number now in the congested grades.
 2. By increasing the numbers in other grades.
 In order that the existing stagnation shall not be repeated every lew years, the report recommends there should be no fewer than sixteen promotions to commander and twenty to lieutenant commander annually. The report advocates reducing the classes of 1860 to 1868 to what should be their nor maj number, thus placing the list in con- dltion to be effectively dealt " lth in future.
 "A practical solution," the report con- tinues, "seems to lie in the creation of an extra list composed of officers, who, though taken ont of the sea-going class, will yet discharge duties whicl are now properly performed by naval officers.' Officers so transferred will maintain status consist ent with proper self-respect. They cannot receive more than shore pay of their grade, and will render adequate service to the gov ernment for such pay, and will form an ac- tive reserve, to be drawn on in case of war. Instead of transferring the total excess of 126 officers of the dates given to the reserve list, 100 will answer the present needs of the HerVice.

DEATH AT A ToLL-GATE.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 15.-Grand Jury Officer Ed Manlove was shot and killed and Justice of the Peace NJ. H. Wilkinson dang ngerously wounded in fight with some parties whom they were trying to arrest this morning. The fight took place eight miles from the city. The shoot- Ing was done by two unknown country men, who tried to pass through the toll- gate without paying their toll. The officers were at the gate and were appealed to by the keeper. A quarrel ensued with the above results. A man named Vester, who was with the officers, was also wounded |, but how seriously cannot be learned. Oms cers are in hot pursuit of the murderers, and should they be caught lynching is probable
