CARNIVAL SOCIETY
Will Give a Grand Spectacular Produc- ton to Raise Funds to Cover an
 Existing Deficit.

Every member of the executive board of the Birmingham Carnival society was present at the called meeting last night in the parlors of the Commercial club.
 The reports of the officers Were read and accepted.
 A unanimous vote of thanks was ex- tended to the following: Hawkins Lumber company for their liberality in erecting the coliseum in which the Rex ball was given. Maj c. F. Wheelock. for the services he so generously rendered in the con- struction of that building
 To the pfess of the city for the great assistance given the carnival society.
 Owing to the fact that the total amount of subscriptions received by the society was only $274743, there remains a deficit of $2.490.19. The amounts due are for the payment of the musicians, mechanics and laborers employed.
 In order to raise funds to meet this deficit 1t was decided unanimously, to give a grand spectacular entertainment on the night of Easter Monday, tickets for which will be placed on sale at $1 each.
 The entertainment will consist of tab- leaux, historical and otherwise. concerts, etc, and will be the grandest spectacular play ever seen in Alabama.
 A resolution was unanimously adopted requesting the mayor and board of al- dermen to permit the Rex coliseum to be allowed to remain in position for the next two months, provided the Hawkins Lumber company will grant the use of the building for the occasion.
 committee was appointed to arrange for the entertainment as follows . E. Lesser, chairman: F. J. McCrossin, J. A. VanHoose, r. Y. Anderson, F. F. O'Brien, August Schillinger, J. M. David son and D. s. Sandman.
 call was issued for a general mass meeting of the citizens at EhS's hall on next Wednesday night, at o'clock Every public spirited person interested in the welfare of the city and favorable to the project of the spectacular entertain ment is requested to attend the meeting. The press of the city was also requested to direct the attention of the people to the mass meeting and its purpose.
 Applications for membership to the Carnival society will be received by any member either at the meeting Wednes- day night or before hand.
 The best of talent will be secured for every feature of the entertainment on Easter Monday. and it is promised that it will be the grandest. most brilliant spec tacular production ever attempted in the state. The tickets, which will be sold at s1. should be purchased by every citi- zen of the city.

HAD THE CLOTHES ON.

Some days ago the residence of a ne- gro in Bnsley City was broken into and all his articles of clothing stolen. He is a railroad man employed by the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railway com pany and suspected another negro named Will Harris of having committed the rob bery. He reported his losses and sus- picions to the police at the time. From the description given Officer Patton and Perdue at once recognized him as Will Harris, negro who was then work ing out a fine for vagrancy. The two officers went to the southside and took Harris out of the chain gang and locked him up for burglary and grand larceny At the time the negro was wearing the stolen suit of clothes and shoes. Harris has often been in jail before. He will be tried in the inferior criminal court this morning.

 That there is no villain in "The Old Homestead' does not lessen, but rather heightens, the interest in Denman Thompson's charming idyl, which will be tha attraction at the opera house for three performances beginning tonight, when Joshua Whitcomb and the rest 'on 'em' will hold the boards-in fact no one could breathe the same air as does Uncle Josh and be villain; for from Joshua's face there is reflected a spirit that is self-sac criflcing, pure, and from his heart there flows an ever-bubbling spring of tenderness. In the presence of this kindly old man. we forget the vacations, the worrying and ths vanities of this bustllng, hurley-burley world, and are quieted, and charmed not only by his in- fectious smiles, but by the bright in- huence of his quiet and satisfied content- ment. In fact Uncle Josh and the rest lon 'em' do not seem stagy, but to many who have seen them, are real. living, hu- man. That this engagement will meet with success there scarcely seems to be a doubt

the work.
Mayor Pau said that he did not
know thatsthis would help the mat
ter in his estimation, but he would
consider it. If he did not sign the
contract,it was not because he did not
want the work done. If he could find
a way out he would cheerfully sign it.
Aid. Bradley's motion was unani-
mously carried.

CLEARED A NICE PROFIT.
r. Henline & Son Sell a Two
Years Accumulation of Wool.

Frank Henline & Son made a nice
little deal last week with Henry
Marx & Co., of St.Louis, whereby they
sold $4,000 pounds of wool and car
load of tallow to the St, Louis firm.
The shipment was made Saturday,
and the wool filled four furniture cars
Henline & Son have been accumulat-
ing this big supply Of wool for two
years, and it has come from Blue
Earth county and the country i'm
mediately adjacent to Mankato. AS
the prices were tending upward, ow-
ing to the probability of Republican
success at the last elections, they held
onto their stock. and the passage of
the new tariff bill sent the price up
fully as much as was expected. The
firm has reaped the profit caused by
this increase IN price and it's gain is a
just reward for it's foresight.

Bridge Sidewalks Not Paid For.

Aid. Bradley said that $3.50 had
been held back from the bridge con-
tract because of the absence of some
of the brackets, and the use of bolts
instead of rivets. He thought that as
it was the fault of some city official,
probably the former city engineer,
that bolts were used instead of rivets,
the city should pay the balance due.
The brackets had arrived. He
moved that the bill be paid.
Mayor Pau said that it would not
pay the city to 60 into law suit for
$3.50, as the city engineer had accept.
ed the change, and the city had &C.
cepted the work.
AID. Adams objected to the pay
ment Of the balance, and said that
the work was not completed. The
draw bridge could not be opened in
four or five days, which would cost
the city large amount in case boat
was delayed. Building contractors
never get their pay until the work is
completed. If the city engineer re-
ported that the work was completed
he did not know what he was talking
about.
Mayor Pau said that this was a
matter which he did not know about.
If the work was not completed, it
should not be accepted.
Aid. Fowler moved as an amend
ment that the money be paid when
the city engineer says that the work
is completed according to contract.
Engineer Thompson said that the
drawspan could be opened in few
moments at any time, by saving
wooden stringers and unscrewing the
sleeves of the ratings. The bridge is
finished according to the plans and
specifications On file in the city engi-
neers' office.
Aid. Adams said that he had no
doubt but that the bolts are loose
from the shaking of the bridge. He
had been able to unscrew several
bolts with his fingers, in the presence
of the city engineer.
Engineer Thompson said that he
had thoroughly tested all of the bolts
and had dozen or fifteen that were
found loose frightened up
The amendment was lost, as was
