Ramsay, of Gadsden, the Cooper Cycle company, the Loosley Cycle comrn my and the Riddle Warren company, all of this city. It is their purpose to form stock company this week. and if this is done, work on the track will be begun at once.
 It will be a board track all the way. both on the stretches and curves, and will be one-eighth of a mile in length The grand-stand and bleachers at the park will be entirely remodeled and improved.
 If the track is built at all it will be com- pleted within the next few weeks and races will begin at once. It is proposed to open the track with six-day race the men to ride one hour each night. After that time, however, races will be held only every Friday and Saturday nights. It is now rather late in the season to begin bicycle races, but they can be continued easily until December l. Besides, 1t will be much easier to bring good racers south now than it would be earlier in the summer when they have so many engagements on the northern tracks
 MT. Hammer and the others interested with him in the track, seem very enthus- iastic and say they will positively build the track. Hammer was for two years con nected With Jack Prince who runs the coliseums at Nashville and Atlanta.

AN UNFAITHFUL WIFE
And Broken Hearted Husband-Sequel
 Is Suit for Divorce.

The alleged infidelity of a wife has brought sorrow to the heart of a devoted husband and cast deep shadow over a once happy little home at Brighton, small station on the Birmingham and Bes- semer dummy line, near the latter city.
 This little cottage, which few short months ago was the scene of joy and happt- ness is now still and desolate The vine clad windows, through which the sunshine entered unhinderca to mingle with the blithesome voices of a devoted mother and two innocent children, are now closed and barred. The happy Homecoming of an af- fectionate husband and father as he re- turned each day from his work, his brow wet with the sweat of his honest labor, to be met with the, smile of affeotionate wife and the kisses and caresses of his light-hearted children, has given way to a different scene.
 The sequel to this story is suit filed in the city court yesterday by H. B. Rocket against his wife, Eva Rociett, in which he asks for an absolute divorce and the cus- toay of two children of tender age, alleging that the mother is not a proper person to be entrusted with their care.
 The petition alleges that the couple were married on February 8, 1899, and up to Au. gust 8, 1898, lived happily together as man and wife, during which time three children were born to them, one of which died,
 It is further alleged that during the month of July last the wife was unfaithful to her marriage vows. The name of Dr. Geeorge D. Means was mentioned.
 The story is pathetic in the extren1e the husband alleging in his petition that when . these alleged facts came to his knowledge he took his wife back to the home from whence five years before he had claimed her as a bride and left her. nsa

A top heavy house ready to applaud to the echo every exciting scene in the troubles of a reckless lover and his less fortunate bride. witnessed the performance of Down In Dixie," at OBriens last night. It pur- ports to be a story of southern life, but it Is doubtful if there ever were southern negroes who acted as foolish as did those on the stage last night. A real negro is spoiled when he goes before the footiights. It is certain that there never were south ern girls who made use of that ''Hoosier' accent so common in Indiana. The crea- tion serves it's purpose, is well staged with an abundance of scenery and several of the parts are very creditably taken. The "Pickaninny' band is a success on the streets, but too noisy on the stage.

 The meeting was called to order in Jack sons hall, in Third avenue, at 1O:SO o'ciock by Thomas W. Owens, colored, of Jeffer- son, who was made chairman.
 A. A. Mechanism was elected secretary.
 Bill Stevens was on hand and 'smole a big smile' as the meeting settled down to business and unanimously nominated Schwarz to make the race for congress in the Ninth district
 On motion Owen and Mechanism were appointed a committee to notify Sonwarz of his nomination.
 A platform was adopted reaff1rning the national republican platform. The Mckin- ley administration, and especially its man. agement of the Spanish-AmeIican war, was endorsed.
 Resolutions condemning the Lily White republicans of Alabama for their treatment of the negro were unanimously adopted.
 These resolutions went into details. and stated that while the negro constituted 50 per cent of the party in Alabama, yet in the distribution of patronage under the Vaughn Youngblood administration the ;,, offices.
 A district executive committee was elected as follows:
 Charles Howze, Bessemer, chairman; Dick Hawkins, John P Simpson, D. E. Davis (white), Thomas w. Owens, M. B. Boyd, Smith Houston, P. w. Shields, Butler Bay Tor and M. McElvain (white).
 MT. Sohwarz was notified of his nomina- ton, and at once accepted. He is well known in Birmingham, having removed here about eleven years ago from New or leans. and for a number of years was en- gagged in the clothing business in First ave nue. For the past few years he has been engaged in the life insurance business. and has taken an active part in politics, beirg z at one time closely associated with VII liam Vaughn, chairman of the state exec ut1ve committee of the regulars.
 Schwarz was seen after he had accepted the nomination, and said that he would challenge Underwood and MeEniry to de- bate the issues of the day. tfr.'
 It is proposed to wage an aggressive fight, and to this end campaign committee has been named, of which Dick Hawkins of Bessemer is chairman.
 William Vaughn, the recognized head of the party in Alabama, was seen by an Age Herald reporter after the meeting, and in regard to the nomination of Schwarz said:
 "A regularly ordered convention of the republicans of the Ninth congressional dis trict was held in this city yesterday, and a more harmonious convention I never saw. There was not a single contest, every deie- gate being seated without objection. How these men can now come forward and claim to be republicans cannot see. Our convention nominated John T. McEniry of Bessemer for congress, and he is the only republican nominee"

PRAISED THE ALABAMA TROOPS
And Talked Pleasantly With the Gen. tlemen of the Committee-Date Of Celebration Likely to Be Post
 poned Until November.

Washington, September 7.-(Special)- Ut is not probable that the president will be able to attend the proposed Peace Jubilee in October, but should the date be delayed he may visit Birmingham. He hopes to go to Jacksonville after his trip west and promises to return via Birmingham and. spend day there. This trip, however, cannot be made before November
 The invitation to visit Birmingham was extended President Mckinley by com. mittee of ten this morning, consisting of Representative Underwood. Stallings and Clayton, General Shelley and Messrs. J. w. Hughes, James Bass, William Youngbood, J. H. Bingham, Walker Percy and E. w. Barrett.
 MT. Underwood extended the invitation, stating to the president that the committee ham on the occasion of a jubilee celebrat- ing the successful termination of the war.
 MT. Underwood included the cabinet and such other gentlemen as the president SHOulu I1e Spohe Ol Ific pio6iSoo ol Birmingham and the desire of the people to have with them the president of the United States who had successfully con- ducted the war with Spain.
 Appreciated the Invitation
 MT. Mckinley replied that while he ap preciated the invitation and would be glad to visit Birmingham. it was impossible, ow- ing to his engagement, to fix date just at present, He likewise remarked that the, war not being concluded he could not tell just what duties here would require his attention. Then he added that General Lee had been urging him to visit the troops at Jacksonville and he hoped to do so later. In that event he would return via Bir. mingham. He stated. however that he could not go to Jacksonville until later, meaning after his western trip.
 The president then suggested that 1t was best to go on and have the Peace Jubilee; that he would attend if possible, but ne feared he could not go as early as October 20. The members of the committee were
  should be held in November. rather than in October, he might attend. The president. in informal talks with individual members of the committee, expressed much pleasure at receiving the invitation.
 "If can arrange to go to Jacksonville shall visit Birmingham" said he, "but I can arrange no date now. I am glad to see the people of Alabama manifesting this pa- triotic spirit. Your state did splendidly in furnishing troops"
 Then the president branched off into a talk about the army, and asked if Alabama would furnish many men for the regular army to do duty in the islands we have taken. He remarked that this country should need large standing army hereaf- ter.

May Bo Postponed

The above dispatch was received by the Age-Herald at a late hour last night. None of the leaders in the jubilee movement could be seen as to whether the postpone ment of the presidents visit would delay matters.
 Arrangements were going forward yester- day just as usual. committee meetings be- ing held and other details perfected. It is thought likely that If the president will as. sure the citizens of Birmingham that he can come among them even as late as November that the Peace Jubilee will be held as first intended.
 Committees will be called together as soon as the party arrives from Washington, and after advising with them the question will be decided.
 Major Anderson of the arrangement committee. has decided upon very unique idea for the reviewing stand, which is to be built near the Morris hotel. He proposes to build the stand in the shape of the bow of a ship. representing that of the battlsship Alabama. It will be Of white. trimmed with gold.
