propriately been selected to act in the ca pactty of superintendent of mines and mining for the state exhibit, Is striving with all the energy and experience at his command to make this the croWning feature of the Atlanta exhibition. MT. West stated to an Age-Herald reporter that he was diligently travelling and com piling an unequalled display of minerals and was meeting with marked success, so much so that nearly all the space for that department has been spoken for, and he advised those contemplating an exhibit to address him at once.
 MT. West stated that among other dis plays there will be one each from the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad com pany, the Pioneer Manufacturing com pany and many others.
 The Bessemer Land and Improvement company, it is also thought, will make an exhibit, and so much space, it is be- lieved, will be taken up, that it will be necessary to build annexes As the East Birmingham Roofing company is desrous of making an exhibit of their product. MT. West seemed to think that they might be induced to roof the annex as part of their exhibit, and thereby help in the construction of the annex as well as display their manufacture.
 It will be well for all contemplating am exhibit to have the desired space allotted to them at once as it will soon be at premium.

The British Kryolite Bark Iodine Overrun
 With Them.
 Steward William Stuart and Capt. George B. Bartlett of the British lSryolite bark Iodine, which is anchored at Pier 92, South Wharves, after a trip from Ivigtut, Greenland, have been having high old times with the rats on board their vessel. The steward said yesterday that the bark on the homeward trip had been overrun with them. some being of mammoth size, and divided into three classes-white, gray and black.
 The steward added that they caused a great deal of trouble, eating up a good share of the ships stores, gnawing holes in water casks. running about over the sleeping men. etc.
 In gnawing the casks they left the crew without fresh water, and it was a good long sail before an ice foe was found, upon which were pools of fresh water. Several of the men were bitten, and they had to sleep behind wire net tlngs for safety An Eskimo dog was taken aboard before starting. but after killing fifty or so of the rodents, one morning he was found dead.-Philadel- phia InQuirer.

 l.. & N. Earnings.
 The comparative statement of Louis- vile and Nashville earnings for the first week of July has been compiled and is as follows: Total freight, passenger and miscellaneous earnings, $375, 735 as com pared with $267 210 for 1894, showing an increase of $10S,525 Of this increase the freight was $99, ,18O and passenger $14,- 775 The returns, however, as compared with 1893 and 1892, show a decrease of $l39 300 and $46,6 ,645 respectively, the great est decrease both years being in the pas senger department. The statement shows no increase in mileage for the year to date.
 Scarcity of Cars.
 There is a great scarcity of cars in this district at present, the demand at other points for cars for transporting fruit and vegetables being so great. The demand at this point for cars to handle coal and pig iron is unusually great, and it is difficult to secure sufi- cient to move sa me.

WITH THE RAILROADS.

Now that the Mobile and Birmingham railway has been reorganized and re- named having Topped off the word rail- way and substituted therefor the word railroad, indications point to a thorough overhauling of that line, which is not only important to the terminal cities, but every town along the line.
 It is stated on good authority, says the Mobile News, that the company, now re- organized, intends to begin the construc- ton of a round house and machine shops at once upon the company's property on Beauregard street, west of the old Mobile and Ohio depot. It is stated that an ap- pication will be made to the city council for permission to close up Bloodgood street, so as to have the property all con nected. The rumor finds confirmation in this that the railroad authorities have staked out a location on their property, and besides there have been in the city several manufacturers agents for ma- chinery. It is recalled that the company in their charter agreed to locate their shops in Mobile, but up to the present time they have had their work done in Selma and failed to build shops, owing to the financial condition of the road. Now that the road has come out of the hands of the receiver in good condition, and the purchasers intending to run it for all it is worth have probably concluded to build their longdelayed shops, and thus secure the advantages of economy, as disabled cars and engines have had to be taken to Selma for repairs. The shops will give employment to a number of mechanics and workmen, and there is no doubt the city fathers will do anything reasonable to assist in making it cer- tainty.
 New and Heavier Raids.
 A force of hands, says the Russell Reg ister is now engaged in taking up the old rails of the Mobile and Girard railroad and replacing them with new and heavier ones. The hands, says that paper, put in an entire week along the line at Scale and the work is progressing rapidly. with view to an early completion. The Mo- bile and Girard road is an important one to portions of east Ala bama, it running through the fertile country from Troy to Girard in Alabama. and to Columbus, Ga., across the Alabama line. It is feeder of the Central and Is considered good property.

IA Woman's Age Sacred

In a case before a Paris court, in which a popular actress had to appear as a wit ness the judge seemed to have shown considerable diffidence about asking the lady, as he was in duty bound to do, what was her age.
 Evidently he considered that such a question put to witness would be a di- rect indictment to perjury, so he asked her her age before she had been sworn.
 ''How old are you, madam?" he said.
 After little hesitation the lady owned to being 29 years of age.
 And now that you have told the court your age" continued the gallant judge, you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth"
