Corn. Stalk Disc ase.

! A number of reports have been
coming in from various parts of the
State to the effect that this disease
has appeared among cattle that have
been turned out in the stalks, and
this is written as matter of warn
ing for farmers who wish to feed their
corn stalks to cattle in in the field.
It is scarcely necessary to suggest
that the cattle should be taken out of
sthe feldswherein the disease appears,
|as early as possible and not put back
in the same field for at least month
and then very cautiously.
Symptoms: This disease appears
very suddenly. The diseased animas
may be seen standing apart from the
others and showing peculiar bumped
up appearance, it's tail switching, eyes
with wild expression and sometimes
cattle are actually delirious. AS the
disease becomes more pronounced the
symptoms of pain and delirium in
crease. Death frequently result with
in twenty-four hours after tho first
symptoms is noticed. Cattle affected
with this disease are frequentl y re-
ported as rabid, and have been the
cause of considerable excitement in 8
neighborhood, the people thinking il
rabies and that the cattle have beer
bitten by mad dog. The disease ii
probably not contagious .snd man.

because the cattle have been all living
under similar conditions and eating
the same feed.
Prevention: The prevention of this
disease is very simple. It appears
among cattle that have been turned
out in the corn stalk field. and the
cattle usually die while in tbs fields.
If the cattle which have been dying
have been kept in the stalks and the
symptoms correspond with those I
have given, they should be taken out
as soon possible from the fields
wherein the disease has appsared, and
be induced to take as much salt and
water during the next few days as
possible. The disease does not seem
to appear when the corn has been cut
and shocked and tho cattle are fed
this shocked corn. The trouble comes
most frequent to cattle that are turn
cd in the stalks hungry and for this
reason it is safer to turn cattle in for
the first time after generous feed of
what they have been accustomed to
and let them remain in the fields.
The disease appears most frequent
ly among cattle that are taken out at
night, put back in the morning, etc.
Treatment: Cases die 90 suddenly
and the disease is 80 easily checked
without medicines that it does not
| seem worth while to suggest treat

it your kidney be affected, you have a

An Appeal Is Made to the Public
 Spirited Citizens.
THE WORTHY INSTITUTION
Needs a Permanent Building of Its Own tc House the Unfortunate and Frendless 
 Children Under It's Care.

The lady managers of the Mercy Home
 are determined thalu the new Home shall
 be built.
 The work that these noble women are
 doing is greatly retarded by the lack of
 proper quarters. It is a matter of inter-
 est to every man, woman and child in
 Birmingham to aid in securing a home
 for this grand institution.
 Plans for the building are now being
 made by an architect of bhe city, who
 has agreed ito donate tham free of charge Several contributions of building ma
 te.tal have been made to the building
 fund. With the proper encouragement from the people, it will be a matter of a very short time unltil the new Home will stand completed, "a monument to the charity, benevolence and good name or this city.
 All moneys that are contributed for the building fund are set aside for that purpose and ussd for no other. The Mercy Home is a public institu- ton; the managers simply dispense the gifts of uhe people to best sutserve the purposes for which they were intended. INMATES AND THEIR NEEDS. Seventeen helpless little children now receive the care and attention Of Hhe Home. The Creehe, which is assisting In

 A union meeting of the churches of Birmfnlgham will be held at the F'Irst Methodist church, on Sixth avenue and
 Nineteenth street, this month, for the
 benefit of the building fund. It is hoped

Many necessary and useful contrlpu- tions were given to the Home for Thanks- giving, for which the management oe- sire to thank the many friends who so kindly nunembered the inmates on phat occasion.
 The people of Birmingham should not rest until the new home is completed. THE MERCY HOME. The institution is a monument to the tireles1s erdergies of the noble-hearteo
 women of Birmingham. From the ex- perimental stage it has rapidly prog ressed until 1t attained a permanency several years ago.
 The good work 1t has accomplished speaks volumes for the efficiency or US | management. Hundreds of homeless | friendlssa children have been given mcltherly protection. They were Kept from the temptations of the outer world and reared to good, Christian woman- hood.
 Numbers of young women who were | led astray by the false glitter or the l h,alfworld have been reclaimed TO the narrow path of viitue.

 THE PRESENT CIRCUIT.
 The league for the season of 1898, .s composed of good ball towns. The mile age and hong jumps will be materially reduced from those of former years.
 The circuit is made up of Augusta, Charleston, Savannah and Atlanta, Ga., Mobile, Montgomery and Birdmingham, Ala, and New Orleans The best and most successful leagues of former years comprised a majority of these cities. The friendly rivalry was intense, and very fast ball resulted
 Henry Powers, of New Orleans. is the temporary president of the league. He will be elected permanently as he 5 the prime factor in base ball in the south. He has his peculiarities, enemies, but has often proved the nraEnstay of the national sport in the southland.
 THE LOCAL CLUB.
 Nothing, absolutely nothing, has been done toward engaging a team to repre- sent Birmingham. Many letters have been received from would-be-managers The names of some of them are known far and wide. None have been engaged nor given intima ton of engagement. After the league meeting in Atlanta Sunday the local organization will have a meeting. A manager will then be se- lected to engage a team to represent this city.
 It is possible that the "fans" will be given a surprise in the way of team. If the scheme on foot is successful, Bir- mingham's fair name will be found at the top of the percentage column when the fall evenings preclude continuance of fhie schedule.

SUSPICION OF OTHER JOBS
Two of Them Confessed, But the Others Claim Innocence His Reputation Tarnished-
 The Women to Be Tried Today.

The Cinmatd Dye works burglary gives promise of developing into greater things.
 Last Monday night, when the place was raided, 113 pieces of cloth.ng were stolen Of this number not more than thiry-five pieces have been recovered.
 In police count yesterday Bob o'Don- nell and Harry Kelly were bound over to await the action of the grand jury under bond of $4OO. A similar action was taken in the case against Lonnie Rich ardson, but his bond was fixed at $5OO All of the defendants waived examtna- tion,
 Against each one of the boys a. case of vagrancy had been docketed. The judgment in the cases was held up on account of the defendants having been bound over on the other charge.
 The goods so far recovered were con- cealed in a resort of which Elsie Later day was an inmate, in negro woman's s house in Fourth alley. and under Rtch- ardson's house. The hiding place of more of the goods is said to be known, and they will be recovered today.
 Elsie LaIterday and Rebecca Scott are in the city prison charged with receiving and concealing stolen property. Their cases were continued until this morn ing. Both of the women deny any con- nectfon with the case. It Is probable they will be discharged today
 O'DONNELL'S REPUTATION.
 Although Kelly and Richardson con fessed to the commission of lthe deed, O'Donnel absolutely refused to admit his guilt. He became angry and ex- cited when an attempt was made by the Laterday woman to secure an adm sslon from him. He abused her and threat ened her with personal violence.
 An attempt is being made to connect the three boys with other crimes. A suburb was visited recently and r,ch booty secured. Suspicion is directed to at 1easb one of the boys as the crimi- nal.
 Bob O'Donnell has been in Coalburg, " said member of the police force, "and is one of the worst thieves and crimi- nals in the state He has not been out of the mines very long. I have never known hfm to do any work since he has been in Birmingham"

JULIA MARLOWE LAST NIGHT.

The most exactng star would have been satisfied last night with tine hom- age of the brilliant assemb,age that gathered to see Julia Marlowe in an un- attractive role. For Bonnie Prince Char lie is an anglacised version of Francois Coppee's French play Les Jacobites. The story tells of am Gntrigue between Prince Charlie Edward and Lady Clan- morris. An exposure Is fmlnent. To save him, Marry the beggar maid, actu- ated by passionate love for the prince. sacrifices herself, declaring she Is the guilty woman. With faithfulnsss born of a mixture of her devotion for the piGrce and her loyalty to Scotland. she follows the prince to the bitter erd, bsar- ing the burden of his escapades at the French court, when he escapes from Scotland, and the girl dies in her blind fathers arms.
 The play barely escapes being trage- dy.
 The play lacks the brilliant coloring of romance and chivalry. In less capa- be hands it would not have appealed with any peculiar force to that element Of human nature that responds only to the brighter side of life. But Julia Mar
  challenges the sympathy and interest of the most indifferent play-gcsrs. It is a role that few women of her ability would care to undertake. But she is not dependent on the eostumers art or the chance popularity of a play. Her beauty shown resplendent in the garb of child of the hills. Her remarkable individuality stood out conzpicuously. l,a icfi inn fo a, r1aq4f That had lBttle inherent strength. for Miss Mar
 lowe in the role of a Highland beggar mald Is as incon sruous as "A Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight" would be for an offertory.
 She never lapsed for one moment into melodramatlc conventfonality, but her presentation was not on that account less effective. The pathos that charoc- terized fer acting was all that could be wished in such. role. There is a quality of tenderness that permeates her entire personat1on as the perfume per- meates the rose. The secret of her pow CT Hes in the simplicity and naturalness of her art. Take her as you will, Julia Marlowe is a hlstrionic revelation.
 The supporting company was in most respects satisfactory. the chief honor be- longing to Dodson L. Mitchell for his magnificent impersonation of Angus, the blind patriots. Alhusd Kendrck made the most of his opportunities es the Prince. Scottish plaids and Scottilh melo- dies were greatly in evidence. A trusr | picture of life on Scot'and's heath has not besn given to the stage by any re- I cent playwright. The play weLf as 1 smoothly as if it had been playing at 1 O'Brenfs for year.
