How q Fox Gets Rid Of Fleas,

Reynard is a knowing animal.
The foxes are much tormented by
feas, but when the infection be.
comes too severe they know how to
get rid of the insects. They gather
from the bark Of trees moss, which
they carry to stream that deepens
by degrees. Here they enter the
water, still carrying the moss in
their mouths, and going backward,
beginning from the end of their
tails, they advance till the whole
body, with the exception Of the
mouth, is entirely immersed. The
fleas, during this proceeding, have
rushed in rapid haste to the dry
parts, and finally to the moss, and
the fox, when be has, according to
his calculation, allowed sufficient
time for all the fees to take their
departure, quietly opens his mouth.
The moss floats off down che stream
With its burden Of aeas, and when ii
issoutof jumping reach the fox finds
it's way to the bank quite relieved.

DID HE KILL HIMSELF
Negro Supposed to Be a Counterfeiter
Meets a Peculiar Death Near IRON
dale-Trles to Pass Green Goods.

An unknown negro met with peculiar
death near Irondale yesterday morning,
and from what could be learned by
State Herald reporter, it seems likely to
remain a mystery.
The negro accompanied by two COM
paniors, one of whom was white, left an
East Birmingham dummy at Gate City
and went over to Irondale. Here they
separated. The negro. who is dead, went
to Mr.. Georges store and attempted to
pass some counterfeit money. Mr..
George, discovering the money to be
bogus refused it and the negro left, join
ing his companions, the trio making off
up the Southern railway.
In the meantime Mr.. George informed
the town marshal, who formed posse
and securing two dogs belonging to
blacksmith named Spake, started after
them. The trio separated, but the posse
kept on the trail of the negro who at
tempted to pass the queer" The negro
was soon sighted and when they began
closing up on him he turned and, drawing
a pistol, made an effort to use 1t. On
seeing his movement some of his pur-
suers opened fire on him, but he was
beyond reach of their weapons. The ne
gro made directly for the railroad track
and on reaching it he was seen to fall,
and the report of pistol shot was heard.
On reaching him the posse found he was
dead his hand still clutching the pistol,
which, from appearances, must nave
struck the track and been discharged
1t is thought this was the shot which
caused the negros death.
The body was left where 1t was found
by the posse and Coroner Jones notified.
The Warner-Smiley company will go at
ter the body this morning.

T. L MCGOWAN & CO.,
AT O'BRlEN'S.

Punch Robertson and his company of
players opened their weeks engagement
at the O'Brien opera house last night by
presenting Rose Cottage" The house
was crowded to it's capacity and the en-
tire play was highly enjoyed from the
raising of the curtain on the first act un-
til the close.
The plot consists of marriage, jealousy,
separation and reconciliation. 1t is clear
and catchy throughout
The comedian, Mr.. Francis Fahey. in
his songs and specialties is very clever
and Miss Sallie Ann Waddles, the house
maid, did her part exceptionally we'll.
The entire company is superior in many
respects to the popular price shows that
have been given this season.
Punchs company in this city and judg-
ing from his first reception our Birmng-
ham people were highly pleased with
him as other cities in the south where he
has made himself a favorite.

Noon Hour Yesterday.
New York, Dec. 7.-District Attorney
John r. Fellows died at p. m. today at
his home in this city. He complained
of illness resulting from cold on Tues
day, but continued his duties until
Wednesday. when his condition became
serious and he was advised by his ply
sician to go to bed A cancerous tumor
of the stomach developed and this was
the cause of death. Col. Fellows con-
tracted a cold while speaking in the
southern and western states for Palmer
and Buckner and his hard work In the
campaign. it is believed, weakened his
system.

been held up and robbed at identically

as in the same month of 1895. The
first week in February New Orleans
exported four times as much corn as
New York.
The Railway Gazette says that var
i0us causes have contributed 10 the
free movement of grain to the Gulf of
| Mexico The distance from Wichita
to Galveston is only about 100 miles:
the direct roads In this territory are
now large, strong companies. liable at
any time to have a lot of cars and en-
gines temporarily idle. that can be used
to carry any freight that can be had.
at cost These roads have brought
some little cotton north this season,
and they have been willing to take corn
south at less than cost to help pay for
! hauling the cars back. The Rock
lSlano is also said to have Joined with
the Texas and Pacific In the expert
ment of sending corn TO New Orleans
via Fort orth. Galveston harbor Is
now accessible to ships drawing twenty
feet Of water, and has big new ele-
vator, and the railroads had strong
local pressure TO let the city test its
capacity to handle a large volume Of
traffic. This increased facility for large
ships lowers ocean rates. Of course, and
fewer vessels will have to go to New
Orleans to finish out their loads.
The Illinois Central, with its 1000
mile line to New Orleans, is working
strenuously 10 stimulate traffic over it.
The water has been low in the MisSis-
sippi this year, and bargeS have taken
down but little corn; but even with a
good depth of water it is not certain
but that the railroads would carry o
large share of the grain. 1t has adj
vantages similar TO those by which the
New York Central has taken grain
away from the Erie canal In increas-
ing quantity of late years; IL has a
great supply Of cars: has connection
with three elevators at New Orleans.
which have advantages superior to the
floating elevators used by the river
boats, and has it's own lines and solicit
ing agents right in the contrasting
country for hundreds of miles. The |
persistent operations of this road will |
compel low rates by all other routes to |
the Gulf.
Traffic channels are changing and |
New York and Newport News lines are |
particularly worried. The joint traf- !
fic rule lately adopted by the Atlantic
sea-board lines was forced by the eff
forts being put forth In the Interest |
of the Gulf route to Europe. The
claim or declaration of the New York
papers that the cars which go TO the
Gulf must return empty amounts to
The assertion is Itself empty.
Imports can be landed at Gulf points
just as cheaply. as surely and with the
same celebrity that they can be landed
at New York, Baltimore or Newport
News, and this will follow In spite of
the Atlantic sea-board inter-
ests can do to the contrary.

FUSNAN FOIBLES.

Many years ago we remember read
ing a wholesome little volume on lying,
by Mrs. APPLE, which if yet extant. we
i respectfully recommend for careful
perusal to the editor Of the Topeka
Capital as a corrective, before indulg-
against Wichita and it's defenders. The
stuff from the Capital, given place in
yesterdays Eagle for the sole pur-
pose of showing the readers of this
paper, to what extent a man can in
dulge his propensity for misrepresenta-
ton. and yet pose as purist, and para
gon of the prohibition virtues, scarcely
rises to the level of mild contempt
There Is not a school boy but knows
that the Wichita principle is the prin-
ciple of anarchy, pure and simple"
Such fuStian as that inclines one to
seriously doubt whether the bunco-
steerer of forlorn hope, who wrote it,
understands the difference between an
archy and arnica. 1t would be an act
Of condescension to idiocy, and an of
Tense against dignity 10 reply to such
an Infamous charge. The stinkpOt is
a feature of Chinese warfare, not of
American civiliza ton. which only the
Morrilly degenerate can afford to Use.
The Capital whines about dissension
IN the Republican ranks, and oppOsi-
ton To the renomina ton of Governor
Morrill,. Who caused the dissension
complained of? The answer to this
question Is so familiar to the readers
OF this paper as to require no repeti-
ton, and It II hopeless to expect an
honest acknowledgement from the de-
Mortified contingent The fact is,
all this whimpering OF the heuchman
inspired and dictated by his MASTER
read between the lines-is the despair
ing cry Of q drowning man: Help.
help. My organ or sink" And the
disconsolate editor stands upon the
shore, nerveless, paralyzed, powerless
to help. And poor Morrill, sinks out Of
sight bereft of life by his own hand.
IT'S piteous sad;-past all remedy.
