LOOK OUT FOR HIM.
An Unprnciped Scoundrel Continues to I'm
personate Rev. DR.. WhittIe-His Latest
and Most Aggrayating Attempts.

One of the most high handed outrages
ever perpetrated By one man against an
other has been made known to a State
Herald reporter by the victim, who, by
the way, is one of the best known men in
Birmingham and Alabama, and who, as
minister of the gospel ranks high in
his chosen and worthy calling
The gentleman referred TO is Rev. Dr.
W. A. Whittle, formerly vice president of
Howard college and for years pastor of
the Second Baptist church of this city.
For about six months there has been a
person travelling through Missouri, IN
diana, Illinois, Tennessee and Kentucky
preaching and lecturing under the name
of Rev. DIR. w. A. Whittle and claiming
to have been pastor of the Second Baptist
church of Birmingham, and also author
Of Travels and Adventures in Europe
and All Bible Lands" a work which has
had wide sale in the United States and
Canada and was written by Dr. white
of this city. The man also had creden-
tails purporting to be from DIR. Whites
home church, which have been proven
to be forgeres.
About four months since DIR. White
heard Of the man in Missouri, and de-
nounced him in the ST. Louis and Louis
vile papers, which resulted in the man
being arrested. This did not deter him.
however, as he again followed his nefari-
GUS Ifdcllce.
The actions of the man have been dis
tresslng to the one he unprecedented, and
it was DR.. Whites desire to see him
handled to the full extent of the law, but
so far success has not attended the effort
The latest escapade, and one which
should be denounced by all men, was the
writing of letters to ladies with matrimo-
NAL intent, at the same time persisting
in using the name of Rev. DR.. W. A.
Whittle.
Providentially the latter outrage reach
ed DR.. White, some of the letters fall
ing into his hands. He expressly desires
that all lovers of decency and good order
will aid him in ferreting out and bringing
to justice the man who would not only
debase the Cloth" and travel in Disguise
but attempts to deceive innocent women
The man is about So years of age Is
dark Completed; hair and eyes dark, me-
dunn height and crippled his left leg be-
ing cork. He is said to be very shrewd
aud an unusually fine talker.
The Kentuckian, published at Column
biana, KY, last week gave an account of
the arrest of the man in that place, it
coming about through the exposure
printed in the Cour.er-Journal, but the
man escaped from custody.
Anyone seeing the man can have him
arrested for Obtaining money under false
pretenSeS.

TUSCALOOSA.
Mayor Jemison Announces for Recollection.
Movement to Organize Fire Department


Movement to Organize Fire Department
Tuscaloosa, Sept. 22.-(Special Corre-
spondeaee.)-Eon. W. C. Jemson an
nounces himself as a candidate for re-
election to the office of mayor. The cleo
ton occurs on the first Monday in De-
cember.
Hon. Richard G. Jones, president of the
university, is IN Mobile.
Mr.. j. r. GUN, republican candidate
for congress. attended the republican con-
ference in Birmingham yesterday.
The many friends of Dr. j. b. Read will
be pleased to learn that he is rapidly re-
covering from a recent spell of Illness
and will soon be on his feet again.
Hon. j. Manley Foster spent Sunday at
Blount Springs with his little son.
In connection with the movement on
foot for The organiza ton of fire depart
ment the following from the Gazette is
timely:
"If Tuscaloosa had a fire department
and some hose one more building would
be standing today that is now but wreck
of charred timbers. In view of this fact
it behooves the city of Tuscaloosa to pro-
vide some means for the systematic fight
ing of the dread fire hend. In the first
place, what is needed most of all is more
hose In answer to this it may be well
said that the city is in no condition finan-
eially to procure 1t. But il we can't alIord
[ o purchase new nose, why not get SuHlC-
thing good at second hand? Birming-
ham, for instance, may have lot of 1t
that is not sufficiently strong to stand
the heavy pressure of her steamers, and
yet it would answer our purpose very well
indeed and hose that they hav condemned
as unfit for their use might be purchased
for small sum, and, with proper care
made to do US for a number Of years
Next we want semblance of fire de-
partment Why not make the chief of po-
lice ex-officio chief of the fire department
and have the police on duty act as fire
men? This could be done without addi-
tional cost to the city, and would make
some one responsible for the proper con-
duct of fires. The great trouble now is
that at the first alarm every man, woman
and child rushes to the fire, and no one
thinks of the hose cart until it is too late
for much good to be done. Why not have
the hose cart in one of the livery stables,
and at the first alarm have two horses put
to it and hurried off at once TO the ire
the proprietor of the stable to be pald
so much for each time the hose cart IS
turned out.
"Some such plan as this could be made
| to work. and work well. and protection be
afforded against fire with but small cost
| to the city.
AS it now stands we have no organiza-
| ton whatever, and what Is done is done
| by "a few gallant fellows, who are willing
| to dare-and even 1t may be to die-for
the good of their fellow citizens"
