CITIZENS LEAGUE
 BEING AGITATED Gen. R. Johnston Talks of the
 Movement. E FORMED FOR PROTECTION Several Prominent Gentlemen Interest ed But No Organization Has Yet Been Perfected Not Go
 Into Newspaper Business.
FORMED FOR PROTECTION

As stated in The Age-Herald of Friday, October IA, there is a movement on foot for the organization of citizens league, which organization proposes to take a very active part in the municipal affairs of the city, especially in the approaching city campaign.
 The primary object of the league, 1t is stated, Is to form combination of proper ty owners in the city, who are supposed to have the welfare of the city at beart more than any other class of citi4ens, for pro- tection against the enaction of unjust laws, . and to See taat the revenues of the city are wisely collected and expended.
 Necessarily, the league must either put out candidate fer mayor whom they think they can elect, or they will support some candidate already announced. The citi- zens' league promises to be an important factor in the municipal politics of Bir- mingham sa-t
 As no organization has yet been perfect ed, the names of the citizens interested in the movement have never been made pub lie officially. Among those who are men tioned in connection with it, however and who are said to saking the most active part, are J. DOnau, H. J. 6n1yef, General R. D. Jo--..ston, wm. R. Houghton and numerous others.
 'There is no secret about it." said Gen eral R. D. Johnston yesterday. "There is such a movement as a citizens league on foot, to be organized among the property owners and others interested in the good government of the city. I cannot give you any of the names yet, because the move ment has taken no organized form. O1 course none of the minor issues that vii come up in the next city campaign hayt been decided upon yet; merely the genera idea that the property owners need pro tection.'
 "I see it stated this afternoon that there is talk of starting morning paper as the official organ of the league. If there is any such thing contemplated, have never heard of it, nor do I believe there is any. thing in it. The citizens league, whatever may be the outcome of it, Is not in my opinion, going into the newspaper business It would be folly to do so."

 Colonel Fyffe, of the Third Tennessee, whose regiment had encamped at Chicka- mauga as part of the first division of the Third corps previous to removal here, said the commissary supplies had been exce- lent in quality and ample in quantity until within the past month. Colonel Fyffe said in answer to questions that canteen had been maintained in his regiment, and that beer in large quantities had been sold at 1t. Most of the receipts, amounting to $400 or $500 per day, of the canteen were from beer.
 Did you deem it proper for your regi- ment to maintain a general beer garden for all the camp?" asked Dr. Conner, read ing from letter as his authority.
 Colonel Fyffe answered no, but that the beer was there to be sold He denied that beer was sold to be carried away except to officers, and advocated the sale of beer at canteens as protection against more serious indulgence in whisky. He express ed the opinion that Chickamauga was an excellent camp ground, but he considered the water supply bad as it was arranged ISe thought a pipe line should have been run to the camp from Crawfish Springs.

It was learned yesterday that the United States government had absolutely refused to cohprAmise with the Alabama Distilling company for selling liquor without license, but has confscated everything connected with the still. including number of cat tie and hogs belonging to outside parties, who had them there to feed on the refuse of the still. =
 When Uncle Sam found that the plant had not been complying with the law, it schooped everything in, and the confisca- ton has been approved by the highest of- ficials in Washington. It was said just after the still was raided a few weeks ago, that the case would be compromised on the payment of all taxes due and a thou sand dollars as a penalty, but it seems as not. A

The Cleveland Wilson minstrels show is filled with the dash and sparkle that has always characterized the companies organ ized by w. s. Cleveland and George Will son. This show is of the right length and goes with a snap and a swing from start to finish. It is the culmination of long years of work and costly experience on the part of both men. It is hard to overpraise it, because money and brains together can organize something better than anything that has gone before, and that is what Will son and Cleveland have done.

second round of a flight that was one of
the most sensational seen by local sports
in a long time Hawkins had been looked
upon as coming champion and in the
early stages of the contest he showed
marked superiority in cleverness, but he
met in Sullivan a fighter pure and simple,
who was there TO take all the punishment
administered and then win by sheer bru-
tai strength, coupled with quick witted
ness when the struggle became critical.
Sullivan was sick, it was said, a couple
Of hours before he entered the ring, but
nobody would believe it after he had been
fighting a half dozen rounds. Gradually
he tired the Californian out and in the
twentieth round Hawkins was knocked
down for seven seconds. That was the
beginning of the end, although Hawkins
was game and worked hard for victory
until he lost his senses. He was badly
punished, but said he wanted to meet his
conqueror again.
Sullivan said he would challenge Kid
Lavigne for the championship. and would
back himself for s5,0G0 Spike also said
he would meet Jack Daily. He won a
