The test run made at the smelter of
the Cliff Mining s. Smelling company,
which was completed last Friday, was,
taking into consideration the many
little difficulties that usually manifest
themselves at the starting up of such
institutions, a success, both 6nan-
cially and mechanically. The expert
ment. so far as the run proper was
concerned, returned a good margin of
profit, which is certainly a remarkable
feature, when taking into consider
alton the fact that the ore treated,
with the exception of one or two small
lots of ore, was of very low grade, dry
and sellcious. We did not learn the
value of the bullion, but we are in
formed that it is very satisfactory, es-
pecially the gold values which exceeds
the expectations of those interested.
The test has proven that the ores of
this district can be most satisfactorily
treated by the smelling process. The
amount of bullion and copper matte
produced during the run will amount
10 about eighteen tons, of which some
ten tons haye already been shipped.
Indications point to starting up of the
smelter at no distant date, as the re-
suit Of the test run has established the
nucleus of a profitable business. In
fact, John Mack, has again taken the
affairs of the company in hand and he
has gene to Albuquerque and other
points for the purpose of making final
arrangements for the resumption of
business.

COUNCIL WILL ACT TONIGHT
THE VExED BRIDGE QUESTION WILL
 BE SETTLED.
Manager Latady, of the Dummy Line. Hopes the Twenty-Second Street Bridge
 Will Be Closed to Vehicles.

The bridge question is still unsolved. With the Twenty-second street bridge in tile hands of the committee, meta phorlcalfy speaking. and the Twenty first street bridge partially closed to the public, Birmingham might be said to be abridged" in this respect.
 On account of the closing of the Fwen- ty-firt street bridge to carriages, wag- ons, drays, bicycles and other vehicles, some traffic has been thrown to the Twenty-secopd street bridge, but be- cause of the very bad condition of the flooring of that structure, the larger portion of the travel between the North and South Sides has again reverted to the Twentieth street surface crossing, which has the reputation of being ver- itable death trap, on account of the large number of trains and switch engines continually passing at that point.
 A number of people have been killed and injured at this crossing, which fact was a potent factor in the construction of the Twenty-first street bridge by the city.
 The question, however, promises to ad- just itself in a few days, as the con- tractors who have the work in charge of reflooring the city bridge have been delayed by thair inability to get the lumber to complete the work.
 They now have things in shape and will in the next few days start to work again and will push it to completion in a short time.
 The Twenty second street bridge ques- ton, which was referred to Alderman Altman and City Attorney Lowe for ad- justment, has not been decided. Col. Altman said yesterday afternoon that a report would be made at the special meeting of the council to be held to- night.
 Manager Latady of the Highland Avenue and Belt railroad says that he would not object to the city closing the bridge to foot passengers and vehicles. He claims that it is perfectly safe for trains. Such action by the city, he says, would relieve him of much worry and responsibility.

A SHORT DOCKET ,
 LENGTHY TRIALS.

"A short docket consumed long time in the police court yesterday morning, mainly on account of the case of Tom Ccle, who was charged with arid proven guilty of adultery with Emma ORourl1e.
 The evidence in that case was con- elusive, and Judge Feagin fined Tom $125 and costs.
 Julia Coleman penitently pleaded guilty to the charge of being disorderly, and was let off with a fine of $6. Julia will have to do considerable washing to catch up with the world.
 An Italian rejoicing in the name of Carlo Vaturgas was arraigned on a charge of petit larceny, but he proved that he was so moral that he wouldn't even steal a kiss under the mistleboe, so was discharged.

 Lize Walker and Josephine Sims are b,ack-faced beauties. with "halrts. yes, sahw In a dispute about their comr ara five beauty they had scratched each others faces, and each was assigned the task of raising $5.

ANOTHER MASS MEETING.
Hon. John o. Turner Will Be ln,it,d to
 Attend.

It Is stated on reliable authority that a pressing invitation will be extended State Superintendent of Education Jno. o. Turner to be present at the next meeting of the citizens on the school question, which will be held some time next week.
 Attorney Bush, who represented the citizsns in the conference with the board of education, said to an Age-Herald re- porter yesterday that notwithstanding the fact that the legislature had grant, ed the board of education power to col lect tuition in the public schools, he considered such action unconstitutional.
 He further said: "The constitution or organic law of the state grants the right to the legislature to levy a tax or ap- propriate moneys from the general fund for the purpose of supporting public schools and our supreme court has de- cided in two opinions rendered by Jus ttce Compton that the meaning and in- tent of the term public school meant public free schools, and could not be supplemented by any tax that would debar the poor or humblest child from enjoying the benefits accruing from such appropriations.
 He said that there had been no test of the law in regard to the special act of the legislature granting the right to t1Iif fn nI1a q m board of education.

An Assured Success.

Among the many new enterprises that have come to Birmingham with the re- turn of prosperity, none more So than the Jefferson Turkish Bath company, on Twentieth street, over Geldersf res- taurant. commends itself more strongly to the public.
 An Age-Herald reporter was shown through this excellent establishment last night, and was amazed at the com plete and thorough manner in which 1t has been fitted mp. The massage room shower baths and needle baths are fitted with the latest improvements, as are the Russian vapor bath cabinets and the hot rooms, which are graduated from 13o to 15o degrees Fahrenheit.
 The reclining rooms and dressing rooms are furnished with magnificent tapestry curtains, elegant leather couch- es and beautiful furniture, and can be compared with the finest Turkish bath establishment of New York city. Prof. Fred Balnles the genial manager, is perhaps the most expert man at the business in the south, and is a massage artist of exceptional ability. The. place is thoroughly first-c,ass, and will re- ceive none but the best people. No per- son with any skin eruption will be ai- lowed to bathe in this establishment. The Jefferson Turkish Bath company is strictly a Birmingham enterprise. MT. Louis Gelders. the affable pies.6ent of the GeldeTs Hotel company l. lile secTs- tary and business manager of this conl- pany, and needs no drtrorslr: iiti, to the people of this city. The most rs.arka- ble feature of this new establisdment is that their prices are lower than ever before charged in the south, a uniform rate of fifty cents being the charge. Its success is assured. fadv)

been sent home for non-payment of trn- tion. The children were possibly sent home to get some written statement from their parents. A few patrons of the schools are mot cooperating with us, and the only complaints are coming from them.
 A vast majonty of the people are paying the tuition, and cam say thals thoso the least able are making the strongest efforts.
 \ number of persons who have ap- piled to us and who we knew were worthy have been granlJed free tuition, and in no case will a cGild be deprived of the privilge of the schools if they are unable to pay"
 Several members of the beard of edu- cation expressed themselves as being sure that no child had been sent home for non-pay yment of tuition.
 B. Steiner, member of the board, said: At the last meeting of the board of education about twenty-five persons applied for free cuttion. and 1t was grarit- ed dn every case, with two exceptions, where the board was unanimously of the opinion that the parties were fully able to pay lbhe amourt''
 Several members of the "cfas" com- mfttee and persons who participated dn the citizens meeting were loud in their disapproval of sending children home for non-payment of tuition.

A QUORUM NOT PRESENT
Plans For the New Water Com
 pany Delayed.
CAPITALISTS WILL COME
They Will View the Field for Ihemselyes-A Special Meeting of the Board of
 Aldermen This Evening.

The consummation of the plan for bringing artesian water tu Birmingham has been delayed for a day or two.
 The judiciary committee of the city council had reported favorably upon the extension of the franchise of tine Bir- mingham Industrial company, but a quorum of the city fathers was not pres ent arid so this vesg important matter had to go over until today when 1t is to be hoped that enough aldermen win be present to make quorum and do what is necessary to give Birmingham pure water supply.
 Geo. c. Kelley the public spirited head of the pure water movement, says that as soon az; the council meets and grants the extension of franchise for which the Birmingham Industrial company asks. he wtl apprse the capitalists of that fact and they will come to Birmingham and sae for themselves that there is money in supplying Birmingham with pure water.
