LOCAL MILITARY

Captain James D. Shelley and Captain William M. Walker, of the Fifth United States Volunteer Infantry, arrived in the city yesterday afternoon from Columbus, Miss, on a three days furlough. They were dressed in the regulation kharki uni forms of the army. They resemble light brown canvas and are trimmed in navy blue, the sign of the infantry service. These were the first uniforms of the kind that have been see min Birmingham and they were objects fo general interest to all who saw them. Their many friends gave these two popular captains hearty reception.
 Captains Shelley and Walker say that their regiment of "immunes" Is getting on splendidly Men who at first could mot keep step with their shadows" are rapidly learning to drill, and perform all theif camp duties in most veteranlike way. The regiment took ten-mile march yesterday with full military equipment and stood the exertion splendidly.
 They say that, so far as they know, the only thing that is keeping the regiment from being ordered to the front at once Is that three companies are still lacking in canteens. These. however, are said to be on the way, and as soon as they arrive the

GARCIA WON'T PLAY
 IN OUR YARD

New York, July 21.-A Santiago special to the Journal, dated the 2Oth, says that Gen. Garcia has written letter to Gen. Shafter declaring that he is disgusted at his treatment at the hands of the Americans and will therefore withdraw his forces to the hills.
 Among the things of which Gen. Garcia complains is the failure of the American commander to officially notify him of the surrender of the Spanish forces under Gen. Toral, and he is also incensed at the al- legged fact that he was not invited to be present at the ceremony attending the equalization of Santiago.
 For these reasons Gen. Garcia declares he will no longer cooperate with the forces under Gen. Shafters command. but will act independently as he did before the American troops landed in Cuba

A SILLY SALLY
 FROM PARIS PAPER

Paris July H.-The Figaro today says: "It is time the powers took extreme meas ures to prevent Commodore Watson's dis patch to Europe and to end the war. Italy, Austria, Russia, and especially France, have the greatest interest in re- minding the United States that they can't allow America to acquire a footing in Eu- rope The friendly representatives of these powers at Washington, it is to be hoped, will enable the United States to percieve the dangerous course on which it is em- barking.''

History of She Fight,

The petition rectes that ia. 1885 the Gads- den Water Works company entered into contract with the city 10 furnish water for a tArm of twenty years, 6 copy of which is made part of the petition that in pur- suance of it's purpose the water works com pany had issued sixty-one bonds of $1O0O each and that the rentals paid by the city were set aside as a special fund with which to pay the interest on the bonded indebt- edness of the company.
 It is further recited that in 1895 the city failed to pay its rentals pI omptly, and the Gadsden Water Works company defaulted in the payment of interest coupons, and on the 29th day of August, 1876, G. H. Coursen, representing the bondhoiders, petitioned the courts for franchise, and in accordance with the prayer of the petition orator was appointed receiver of the company.
 Action of the Mayor and Aldermen
 It further recites that on the 18th day of April, 1898, the city of Gadsden by and through it's board of mayor and aldermen, passed resolutions declaring the contract between the city and the water works com pany null and void and giving the company one year in which to remove its mains and pipes from the streets of the said city. It is alleged that the mayor and board of aldermen of the said city subsequntly passed a resolution authorizing the issu- anee of bonds to the amount or $6UU0U Wltn which to build and construct a system of water works.
 Prayer of the Petition
 The premises considered, the petitioner prays that the city of Gadsden be re- strained and enjoined from interfering with the property in the hands of the receiver. and also be enjoined from creating the pro- posed indebtedness for the construction of water works and from issuing bonds to secure the same or part thereof; and that said defendant be enjoined from executing any contract for the construction of the proposed water works, and from doing any act in furtherance of its purpose to erect a system of water works, and that said de- fendant be required to specifically perform said contract with the Gadsden Water Works company and to make the payments called for by said contract as same fall due.
 The petitioner prays that temporary in- function and restraining order issue, and that upon final hearing 1t be made perpet- ua1
 The petition will be heard by Judge Bruce at the fall term of the court, which convenes the first Monday in September.

 As the Hawaiian stamps will be replaced, 1t is probable a large office will be estab- lished at Honolulu or other cities for the sale of stamps and money orders

claims. in Pine canyon, about five
miles east OF the Century mine.
On this property, according to Mr..
Forbes. 2 strong. ledge of quartz has
been discovered, which has been pros
Dected By surface cross-cuts for 20
feet, without disclosing both walls, the
rock carrying good milling gold values,
in some OF which the yellow metal is
readily seen with the naked eye and
while portion of the ore is free mill
ing, it is clearly a teaching mineral,
and would doubtless yield readily to
the cyanide process of reduction.
Mr.. Forbes speaks highly of the min
eraliZation of Box Elder county. and he
states that considerable is being done
there in the prospecting and operation
of claims, although the outcome of the
different enterprises in this direction
has not been such as to create any
great excitement as yet in mining Cir
Giles.
Still, good reports come from the old
Ashbrook, and but for contentious in
the ranks of the Century company,
which have caused the temporary clos
ing down of the mill on this property,
the company would doubtless be on a
paying basis and making money by
this time.
The White Swan, adjoining the Cen
trrv. is looking well. according to Mr.
Forbes, while other prospects in the
district are responding in a gratifying
manner to every foot of work done in
their development
