BROWSING COWS.
Jersey Milk and Butter and Pork Fat tened On Violets and Hyacinths?

A Birmingham lady takes the following philosophical view of cows running at large since the recent repeal of the stock law by the board of mayor and alder men:
 Since the city fathers have so liberally extended suburban cattle the liberty of roaming at their own sweet will, cows are exercising the propensity of their predecessors who jumped over the moon. The weary matron issues forth from her front door in the morning to behold her flower garden in the hands of the Philis- tines, so to speak But then all this dis couragement to the woman who would fain beautfy her home brings wonderful returns to people who pasture their stock in the thoroughfares of our city. Think of Jersey milk favored with violets. and pork on our tables fed upon lily bulbs and narcissus polticus. The belligerent billy-goat, too, will grow milder under the refining influence of such tender morsels as rosebuds and magnolia bark Those who would enjoy privileges like these should sojourn towards North Highlands, Huntsville avenue, especially since it has indeed become Hand of the free and a home of the brave"

THREE SUNDAY CALLS
By the Fire Department Kept the De partments Guessing All Day.
 Damages Slight.


 Sunday started off brisk, as far as the fire department was concerned. The wind blew a gale all day, and ii. was great luck that no serious eonhagrations oe- cured, although Birmingham has one of the best fire departments in the south For what 1t lacks in size it makes up in thorough organization and a fully compe- tent chief ard fireunen.
 The first blaze was in the early morning, the Southside department being called to Avenue D and Fourteenth street to fire in the roof of the residence of w. H. Rob- -ertSon. The blaze was extinguished without much damage. A defective fiue caused the mischief
 But a short time after this alarm came in, another by telephone called the North side department to Eighteenth street and Seventh avenue to blaze in the roof of the residence of MT. Samuel Ullman. The Nortside department responded pnomptlys Hardly had they gotten to the scene, when some one pulled box 124, corner of Eighth avenue and Nineteenth street, thus causing the Southsiders to come hurriedly to the scene, they think ing this another fire. The fire was in the roof of MT. UllmAn's residence, and did very little damage.
 At 10:40 o'clock a. m., box 21, corner of Morris avenue and Twenty-fourth street, was pulled and the-e entire department re- sponded again. The fire this time was found to be in an unused house at the rear of the cotton compress and ware house, and for time 1t looked as if that structurel would catch from glowing sparks scattering here and there by the high wind. The blaze, however, was soon under control.

The money involved was only $3 but they got fines of $15 each at their trial yesterday morning before Judge Feagin.
