A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE
To the Memory of M. J. McAdory-Eulo-
giles by Prominent Members of the
Profession-Reso

At meeting of the Jefferson county
bar, after eulogies by M. A. Porter S. L.
Weaver, Gen. F. s. Ferguson, e. J..
Smyer, Jno. w. Tomlinson, Judge J. j.
Banks, the following resolutions were
unanimously adopted, after the following
beautiful tribute from Hon. M. A. Por-
ter:
In submitting these resolutions de-
sire to say few words only. One could
hardly say anything truly good of any
man that could not truthfully be said of
Mort McAdory.
Though called away while yet under 80
years of age, his was well-rounded char
acter
He was Industrious; he was temperate
in all things; he was chaste in word,
thought and deed. He was learned and
upright lawyer and heightened and cul-
tivated gentleman. He was true friend.
kind and gentle brother, and tender
and loving son.
And he was as firm and fixed in his
convictions, after due consideration and
deliberation, as is the mountain rock in
It's place. Firmly but gently at times he
would oppose his dearest friends, and
even his father in matters involving prin-
ciple.
Mr. Chairman, while we bow in humble
submission to his taking off, we do not
think it wrong to let fall tear of regret
that such a man could not have been per-
mitted to live out amongst us at least his
three score years and ten.
He died in his fathers house on earth
and we believe that he goes to his Faith
er's house IN heaven. Twas fitting, II
he must die. that he should have died as
he did, at a time when the earth was
bathed In sunshine, and that his pure
spirit should climb to heaven not in
shadow and darkness, but in Gods bless
ed and glorious sunlight
Remarks were also made by Gen. Fred
Ferguson, Judge ]. ]. Banks, 2. j. Smyei
and 8. L. Weaver, after which the fol.
lowing resolutions were adopted:

ATLANTA'S MILITARY
May Pay Birmingham a Visit on the
Occasion of the Mardi Gras If Proper
Arrangements Can Be Made.

Major E. L. Higdon is in receipt Of
the following letter from Captain w. j.
Parkes, of the Capital City Guards. At
lanta:
Atlanta Ca. Jan. "a.
Ny Dear Major:
1 have been thinking of bringing my
company, the Capital City Guard, over
to Mardi Gras, and write to ask If you
could get the Carnival managers to join
you in securing us special rates from
the Southern railroad, and also the
honor of escort to Rex.
/ have painted Birmingham and the
hospitality of it's military to my men in
glowing colors, and believe. that If can
get good rate / would have no trouble
in bringing large crowd
I would feel in visiting my old home in
command of my company, I think that q
company coming from Atlanta to Bir-
mingham to Mardi Gras would prove
quite a drawing card" if properly adj
vertised.
will you kindly give this matter your
early attention and kind cooperation,
and thus oblige an old friend an .ad-
mirer of your distinguished military ca
reer? Sincerely yours,
w. J. PARKES.
Major Higdon went at once to work
to secure reduced rates over the rail-
road, and found no trouble in making
satisfactory arrangements. The Volun-
teers and Rifles have also rendered the
use OF their handsome armory, and
the Carnival association have given the
right of the column in the Rex process
Sion Major Higdon is making every ar
rangement for the visitors to have a
royal time In case they decide to make
the visit.

Hard Pressed by Uncle Sans
4 Age ITS Last Year,
A FINE SHOWING MADE
Two Hundred and Seventy Stills Captured Dur
ing the Year and Much Material Des-
troyed-Lst by Counties.

During the year 1896, according to re-
ports in the Office of collector of internal
revenue. r. o. Randall, to whom all re-
ports of seizures of Illicit whisky and IL
hcit distilleries are made, there were 80
Illicit distilleries, a large amount of dis
tillery tools, beer, mash, singing, whisky,
etc, captured by the able corps of dep
uty collectors employed by Uncle Sam in
the state. The stills ranged in size from
as small as eleven gallons up to as high
as 500 gallons, and the estimated value
of the various outfits ranged from as high
as $3.50 down as low as $3.50. The total
estimated valuation of property seized,
as shown by reports, is about ST $3.50.
OF course, most all of this property was
value1ess to anyone except moonShiners,
who make wildcat whisky; consequent
ly nearly all was destroyed where cap
tured, it being impracticable to remove.
Most instances, where distilleries were
seized, the parties suspected of either
owning or operating, were arrested at
some time during the year by United
States deputy marshals and carried be-
fore the nearest United States commits
sioner-sometimes held under bail to APP
pear at United States court, and some
times turned loose.
The work of hunting and capturing
moonshiners and wildcat distilleries in
some sections of Alabama, is no picnic by
any means, for those who make moon
shine booze" have peculiar ideas of their
own concerning the operation of distil-
leries and the manufacture of whisky
and 1t is not always safe to let them get
the drop on you" So say those who are
familiar with their traits of character
Some of them say openly that If they
want to get out on the side of the noun
tain and make few gallons of whisky,
1t is none of Uncle Sans business
neither is it any business of revenue
officer-whether they have any or not
The typical moonshiner seems to think it
is an imposition ON him by the officer
who happens to capture his STILL or ar
rests him, as the case may be-rather
than to blame the government.
Below Is the number captured In each
county. 1t will be seen that Randolph
county is entitled to the prize, though it
may be that Randolph happened to be
little more unlucky than some of the
other counties:
