FELL DOWN THE STAIRS.

James Griffin Received Injuries That
May Prove Fatal.
James Griffin, man about IS years of
age, was brought to the Receiving Hospital
in an unconscious condition at Z o'clock
last night. He was suffering from LAGER
ated wound above the right eye, and
seemed to be very much inebriated as well.
Griffin received his injuries by falling
down flight of stairs at $40 First street.
He lay for some time at the foot of the
stairs before his condition was discovered.
One of the dodgers in the house found the
man lying in heap and uttering faint
groans. The police surgeons were of the
opinion that Griffin had received serious
injuries, possibly conclusion of the brain,
and that he may die from the effects of the
fall. He was still unconscious at late
hour last night.

ABSOLUTELY PURE

Father DAILY began his lecture by saying
that a nations greatness is in her men and
not in her acres. He then went on to say
that 10 all Ireland there was one grand man
whose history is touching. He referred to
Emmet's speech from the dock aud the
tragic end he met.as being Two things ever
to be remembered by all true Irishmen. He
referred 10 the fact that Emmett loved his
country and how it was shown in his CIV
ing up his life.
He quoted this PATRIOTS last words and
told OF his untimely end.
Father DAILY then went over the history
OF Emmet's life, pointing out the many
virtues of it, and said that the freshmen
still hoped and longed for the day of lib
erty to dawn upon their mother country,
and referred to the fact that there were
still men in all quarters of the earth who
were willing to lay down their lives IL such
would bring liberty to their people. He
said that Irshmen were proud of their
country, and that some day they would be
free people.
His peroration was very beautiful indeed.
Father Daily was applauded much during
the course OF his talk.
The speech was followed with selection
by Grambs' orchestra. Mr.. O'Neill then
called upon Mayor VanHoose for a speech.
Mayor VanHoose addressed the audience,
Haying: 81 greet you as Irishmen and
thank God for the name.' He made a
pleasing speech, saying that one day Ire
land would gain her liberty, because JUS
tice was bound to come to all. He urged.
his hearers to teach their children to honor
their country and not to be ashamed of the
land OF their birth. Mayor VanHoose was
heartily appauded.
y "Come Back to Erin'' was sung by Pro-
lessor Black very pleasingly indeed.
Miss Nora Sullivan sang "Eileen
Aroon, - and the audience kept applaudlng
until she answered with another selection.
Mr.. George jackson rendered a cornet
solo, which was we'll received.
The orchestra played "Dixie" and the
celebration ended.

"A BURLY NEGRO,
Who Made Boasts of Being Able to
Whip Cadets, Comes Out
Second Best.

MONTGOMERY, March 5.-Considerabie
excitement was created in Auburn. twenty
five miles from here and the seat of the
State Agricultural and Mechanical college,
on Sunday night by fusilade of pistol
shots at colored bagnio near the college,
in which Will Tarver was shot in the leg
and George Turkey (both negroes) through
the wrist. The facts as near as can be
learned are:
When the dummy from Opelika reached
Auburn about dark that evening there
were several cadets at the depot George
Turkey, in company with a negro girl,
rubbed against one of the cadets in what
was considered an impudent manner. This
brought on some words, during which the
negro cursed the white boy. The same
negro met a crowd of cadets short time
thereafter and again cursed them. and,
STOPPING pick up rock, swore he could
whip the crowd.
About 10 O'Clock the town was excited
by the fusilade at the bagnio. The citizens
rushed to the place, but before their ar
rival the parties who did the shooting had
scattered and the guilty parties have not
been located.
1t is said Turkey fred the first shot. He
is negro of bad reputs and does not have
the sympathy Of his own race. The au-
thorities OF the college will make thor
ough Investigation OF the affair. Every
thing was quiet the next day, and no more
trouble will occur.

THE COAL TESTS.

The Eastern papers are contending that
the Pocahontas coal is superior to Alabama
coal, in the face of the recent tests on the
cruiser Montgomery. There is no doubt
but that the Alabama Goals lead, and of
the Alabama Goals the "Pearson WARRIOR
leads in the matter OF fixed carbon. The
Mobile Register says:
The New York Coal Trade Journal gives ad-
dition al notes on the Alabama coal tests, with
chemical analyses Of two kinds of Alabama
COAL the "'vir ginia and Alabama Coal Com
pany," and the Pearson WARRIOR We,
therefore, have seven of our Goals analysed
so far. OF these the Pearson takes the
lead in the matter of fixed carbon while in the
matter 0 ( small amount of sulphur and ash it
compares well with the other Goals tested.
The sssloss'' coal comes next in order of
merit, having a percentage OF 1913 OF fixed
carbon, "a of combustible volatile matter,
42-10O per cent of sulphur and 81 per cent of
ash as against 70 .o3 of fix ed carbon, 20. e5 Of
com bustible volatile matter, $40 per cent of
sulphur, and Ia Per cent of ash OF the Pear
son." AS whole the Alabama Goals have
stood the test ex cellently, and no doubt will
be brought into use by the government when
ever circumstances make them available.
