A MOST ENJOYABLE AFFAIR AT THE HOME
 OF MIR. ELI SMITH.
 MT. Eli Smith was at home to the mem- bers of the "bureau" Thursday evening. Great preparations had been made for the occasion and the success of the event was well attested in the reluctance of the par ticipants to take their departure.
 Refreshments were served and toasts drank. Richard Johnston, the principal speaker of the evening, is said to rival Chauncey Depew as an after dinner talker. Many brilliant witticisms passed between those present, and 1t was with no willing minds that they bade the host good bye.
 Those present were Eli Smith, Dick Johnston, Leon Friedman, Jim Smith, Mel Orcutt, Jim Sutphin and Fillmore Green.

CAHABA BRIDGE.
The Much Needed Structure to Be Built-A Birmingham Firm the
 Successful Bidders.

The county commissioners have let the contract for the Cahaba river bridge, and work on it's construction will begin within the next few days.
 The successful bidders were Watkins & Hardaway of Birmingham, and their price S5s45.
 The contract, which was signed yester- day, stipulates that work on the bridge must begin not later than September 20, and that it must be completed by Decem- Der 20 at the very latest.
 The bridge will be at Bain's ford, about ten miles from Birmin ham, and one- fourth of the expense of constructing it will be borne by Shelby county, according to agreement between the commissioners of Jefferson and Shelby counties.
 This bridge, when completed, will be of immense value to Birmingham, as it will enable people beyond Cahaba river to do their trading in Birmingham. Heretofore the great obstacle in the way has been the difficulty the farmers had in crossing the river,

ASHLAND MINE CLOSED.
Pulls Up Pumps and Stops Extracting
Iron Ore

Ironwood, Mich, Jan. 1.-The Ash
land mine pulled UP the pumps tonight
and stopped the business of mining
iron ore. One hundred men have been
employed the past two months This
mine was flooded out just one year ago
and it cost thousands of dollars and
many months OF work before the
property could be worked again.
A conference of the local officials of
the Colby and Ashland group was
held here last night and attended by
Howard Morris, receiver Of the Wis
consin Central railway, and A. c.
Rand, Of Cleveland. After the con-
ference the announcement was made
that the Ashland would cease.
There are also rumors that the Colby
mines, which have been pumping WA
ter only for the past five months,
would take UP their pumps, but the
rumOr cannot be verified.

are in a most bitter mood and are
most anxious to obtain money due
them so they can return home.
