BREWTON INDUSTRIALLY.

BREwToN, Jan. 16.-[Special Corre- spondence. l-The first annual meeting of the Brewton Canning company was held at the court house last night, and 3O4 shares of stock out of BIO were represented in per- son or by proxy. The directors for the past year made report that was indeed fiattering. Everything except few bills around town has been paid, and they re. ported that they had canned tomatoes on hand ready for market of about S170O in value. O.. F. Luttrell, 0. L. Sowell, ST., W. W. Downing, A. F. Johnson and T. W. Curry were elected directors for the ensuing year. This was the old board with one exception. Today the directors met and re- elected T. W. Curry president, w, w. Downing vice. president and A. F. Johnson secretary and treasurer. The prospects for the coming year are very fiattering, and Brewton is as proud of her little canning factory as Birmingham is of her rolling mills and cotton factory.
 The sudden freeze closed the Cedar Creek Mill company down by bursting some of the pipes, etc. The broken parts were ordered by wire and shipped by express, and they will run again in day or two. Mill men with the energy and push of w. w. Downing don't sit down and pine over little things, but get things together at the first moment regardless of cost. Such men make live towns when you get enough of them together.

VERY MUCH OFF COLOR

Are people who are troubled with chronic liver complaint. Bile in the blood tinges the cuiicle and even the eyebaIls, and also mauifests it's presence by uneasiness in the right side and beneath the right shoulder blade, furred tongue, nausea, sick head- ache and an unpleasant breath. It IS usu- ally accompanied by costiveness and dys- pepsia. For the ailment itself, and It's various manifestations, Hostetter's s Stom- ach Bitters is speedy and complete rem- edy. This standard medicine also prevents and cures cbills and fever, rheumatism, nervousness and the inhrmities incident to declining years. It builds up an enfeebled physique and fortifies it against disease. Appetite and nightly slumber are promoted by it, and it is a protector against the effects of wetting, of overwork, exposure and unwholesome food or water.

JERUSALEM IN ITS GLORY.

The worlds greatest masterpiece, "Jerusalem Before the Day of Cruchx- ion," which has been creating such great enthusiasm throughout the south this winter, will be on exhibition in this city for week or ten days, beginning tonight, at No. 2018 First avenue, between TWen- tieth and Twenty first streets, and will be open to visitors daily thereafter from ID to 12 a. m. and 2:30 to p. m.
 The exhibition comes here from Mont gomery, and the Advertiser, in speaking of it, says: |" The City of Jerusaiem,' as shown by Professor Cooke in this place for the past ten days, is one of the grandest productions of the artists skill and the mechanics genius ever placed on exhlbi- tion in this or any other country. The spectator, standing on raised platform, {, views the ancient city with all the proml- nent buildings, palaces and temples, built in solid relief, with multitude of people moving about the city as in real life. The apostles with the Saviour pass through the city, and as they meet the funeral process sion of the widows son the two groups stop and the miracle of raising to life the son is performed as completely as though the characters were living beings instead of automatic figures. This exhibition is a marvel of beauty and presents pure and wholesome lesson in sacred history that IS valuable alike to old and young. Take your whole family and see Jerusalem; 1t is all right.'
 The fee is only 15 cents; children, 10 cents.

sIR. VAN ARsDEI,s OPINION OF DE-
FECTIyE SECTION IN SALARY LAW.
Original House Draft Will then Stand

of State Bonds.

Mr.. Van Arsdel, chairman of the fee and
salary committee in the recent House ses-
sion, said last night that this section had
before been called to his attention, hut
not until after the bill had passed.
"It was not the intention, said he, "to
compel the auditor and treasurer to de-
pend upon the fee collections before beng
entitled to the salaries provided for them.
The words auditor and treasurer we're in
serted through some misapprehenslon. The
committee discussed this point very thor
oughly and saw reason why the clerk,
recorder and sheriff should be subjected to
this further restriction in their salaries, in
addition to the heavy penalties for failure
to collect the fees. This part Of the ill
was framed by Senator Duncan. IN the
hurry of the last few days there was MT

prevent such an error as occurred IN the

previous sections, and requires the supreme
Court to pass upon it. / have no doubt the
court will rule out the whole section, and
if it does the act will be as the House
committee intended it should be. 1t was
intended that each officer should receive

1t was thought advisable yesterday to
close school No. 8, which is located opposite
the home of Mr.. Define. Next week is the
regular spring vacation, and the closing of
the school necessitates the loss of only two

KNICKERBOCkERS AT LAST.
First Young Lady to Appear with
Them On n Bicycle.

Bloomer! No; knickerbockers. The first
to appear on the streets of Indianapolis
were seen last night. A young lady who
stands high in social circles, and who has
not been looked upon as the one who would
be brave enough to make the first appear
ance came riding gracefully down Penn
sylvania street last night, shortly after 10
o'clock, accompanied by two young men.
There were not a great many people on the
street at the time, and few saw her as she
sped by. Those who did notice her made
various remarks. but they were all of a
nature to show that the men of the city
will welcome the advent of the bloomer and
kniclerbocker. Most of the men remarked
her courage to appear in knickerbockers,
while as yet the less radical garment-tlie
bloomer-haS seldom been worn on the
streets. Now that the ice is broken it will
not be at all surprising to see many such
costumes the street Saturday and Sun
day. Many young ladies have made suits
of different kinds-the boomer and the
Turkish costume being in the majority
and many others have left their orders at
the stores where such costumes are solo ;
but yet none have dared risk public
comment by appearing on the streets with
them. The remarks made last night by
those who saw the lady in knickerbockers
indicate that censure will not be bestowed
on those who believe in having comforta-
BILE costume for riding.
