pany B. Capt Charles P. Gage, which was soon thereafter known as Company 10, Second Battalion Light artillery. The battery he was In was assigned to the brigade of General Chalmers at Shiloh where Mir. Jones was desperately wound ed and malmed for life He was close to Gen Albert Sidney Johnston when that hero fell, and saw him taken off the field of carnage and of death, and soon after received the bullet in his own limb, which he has been carrying ever since.
 He was elected clerk of the city of Mo- bile in 1878, and clerk of the circuit court of Mobile county in 1SS0 both of which offices he filled to the entire satisfaction of his constituents.
 As prominent odd Fellow he is known throughout the state, and has been hon. ored by elevation to the offices of grand master, grand patriarch and grand sec retary. For the past six years he has devoted much time and means to the publication of the Southern odd Fellow a monthly journal of known ability, de- voted to the interests of the great broth erhood it represents, and which has been instrumental for great good to the order in this part of the state. To help him In keeping this journal going, MT. Jones al lowed his name to go before the public for the position for which he is nomi- mated.
 In 1889 he conceived the idea that great Birmingham ought to have an organiza- tion of Confederate soldiers and called a meeting on his own responsibility for April 6, 1889, at Erswelrs hall. Above fifty answered the call, and temporary organization was effected A week there after a permanent organization was formed with upward of 100 old Confed- crates present. A constitution and by laws submitted by MT. Jones were adopt ed officers elected, with Capt. Fred s. Ferguson as president and R. F.. Jones secretary From this beginning sprung the handsome organization that took hold of the heart strings of the old Confeder- ate veterans throughout the state and eliminated in the grand reunion held in Birmingham in 1894, when MT. Jones was commander of Camp W. J. Hardee No. 39. and chairman of the committee of ar engagements. For the part he carried out In making that reunion a success, and on the recommendation of his friends, Lieut. Gen. Stephen D. Lee, commanding department east of the Mississippi, United Confederate Veterans, made him aide-de-camp on his staff, with rank of colonel.
 While quiet and attentive to his busi- ness, as an organizer MT. Jones accom- plishes what he sets his mind upon. and through the work of his friends he has gained the largest majority ever given to any one man in Jefferson county by white votes.

champion and one of it's leaders who will do his whole duty without fear, fla vor or affection, and one in whom all citizens, of every shade of political be- lief or religious creed, have the utmost confidence.
 Private Felix Mclaughlin, a broth CT Confederate, and also one of the sue cessful candidates in the recent primary, pays Captain O'Brien the following com pliment: One of the greatest monu- ments Frank O'Brien has erected for himself was that part of his career dur ing the year 1882. In that year he failed for over $60000 and was released from all obligations legally and morally upon payment of 50 cents on the dollar. He felt it his duty to pay the other half of the obligation, and in a short time paid the entire sum. principal and interest at per cent, although not legally com pelled to do so.'

For Tax Collector.

James B. Francis, the nominee for tax collector has been a citizen of Birming- ham ever since it was incorporated. MT. Francis is native of Kentucky, having been born in Richmond August 20 1843. In 1859 his father moved to Platte coun- ty, Missouri, where two years later, the war between the states having begun, the subject of this sketch enlisted in the Confederate army joining General Price at Lexington and serving in the Sixth Missouri infantry, commanded after wards by General Cockrell, now United States senator from Missouri. MT. Fran cis although so seriously wounded in June, 1863, at the siege of Vicksburg as to become a cripple for the rest of his life, did not leave the cause for which he shed his blood He went to Selma, where he served in the Confederate arse nal to the close of the war. He lived in Sumter county until 1871, when he moved to Birmingham just as the future great steel and iron manufacturing center or the south was being laid out. He was on the first board of aldermen Birmingham had being an appointee of Governor Lindsay While member of the board he was elected city treasurer and again reelected at the close of the term. He has been one of the foremost merchants of the city, conspicuously in the hard ware business. MT. Francis is man of great worth of character and of that happy, kindly temperament which nat urally makes friends.

For Tax Assessor.

Mir. John Felix Mclaughlin, who re- ceived the nomination for tax assessor, is a native of Jefferson county. He was born on the site where the Little Belle furnaces now stand at Bessemer, Sep tember 16 1S42. His father was the third white child born in Jefferson county, March l, 1918.
 MT. Mclaughlin was exactly IS years and 10 months old when he volunteered as Confed- crate soldier. He enlisted at Ely ton in Company B, Tenth Regiment Ala bama Volunteers, Capt. Alberto Martin, with John H. Forney as regimental com mander and E. Kirby Smith as brigadier- general He entered the ranks and there remained during the entire war. He saw a great deal of service, and has the only bullet that struck him during the entire war. At the second days battle at Gets tysburg, while lying down in the front ranks, he was struck in the right shoul- der by a large slug, which was cut out of his side, and which he now carries as souvenir He bears the nickname given him by his comrades '"The Old War Horse" He says 1t was the saddest day of his life when he stacked his gun be- tween two union lines at Appomattox. He has never asked for or held office be- fore.
 During his canvass he was always pleasant, and his argument was '1f the office belongs to Sam and Jack, it is Jacks time to have it; but if it does not belong to them, I'd like to have the next swig at the bottle" and he got 1t.
