When your stomach begins to
trouble you, it needs help. The help
it needs, is to digest your food, and,
until it gets it, you won't have any
peace. Stomach trouble is very dis
tressing, very obstinate, very dan
gerous. Many of the most dangerous
diseases begin with simple indiges-
ton. The reason is that indigestion
(not-digestion, not-nourishment), will
weaken the system and allow disease
germs to attack it. The antidote is
Shaker Digestive Cordial, strengthen
ing. nourishing, curative. It cures
indigestion and renews strength and
health. 1t does this by strengthen
ing the stomach, by helping it to
digest your food. It nourishes you
Shaker Digestive Cordial is made of
pure herbs, plants and wine, is per
fect]y harmless and will certainly
cure all stomach trouble. Sold by
druggists, price 10c to 81 per bottle.

An Actor Mho Can Act

An eminent writer once wrote: success does not depend upon what man knows, but what he does" How much more suc- cessful then must be the man who both knows and does Such man is Lewis Morrison. An artist whose wide experience in the theatrical world spans period of nearly two score years and covers every position in the providence of the stage to bestow, from carrying spear, to con- stellation in the histrionic Armament, and whose whole aim in all that time has been to give the public the very best entertain ments his brain, experience and money could supply. The result is, he has ac- cumulated comfortable fortune, and the public has always been satisfied. His great success has been in Faust" the vehicle used to present him to us again this season. but with the intimatum that this is posi- lively his last appearance in this world renowned play. His "Mephisto" is too well known to require introduction. A word
 however, on the production is permissible. The presentation this season Is on a much more elaborate scale than ever before. All the scenery is positively new, startling electrical effects are introduced and many novel mechanisms presented in the famous "Brocken' A chorus promises us classic music, and the supporting company is guar anteed to be superior to any former organ ization. With all these embellishments to heighten the already magnificent produc- tion of MT. Morrison, great things are eX- Iected in this seasons Faust" and great things we shall certainly get. cfe
 MT. Morrison will appear for the last time at O'Brien's opera house Thursday night.

ARE BORING
 THE BIG WELL
The Proposed Immense Enter
 prises at Gate City,
REQUIRE ARTISAN WATER
ing Was Without Incident, But There is Confidence That Suffi-
 cient w ater Will be Had.

Work on the boring of the big ten-inch artesian well at Gate City is progressing; but as yesterday was only the second day of the boring operations, there were no new developments and there is at the moment nothing to add to the very full statement of facts in the Age-Herald of yesterday.
 MT. N s. Hill, the expert hydraulic engi- neer in charge of the enterprise, said last night that he had nothing to say about the work. It has not progressed far enough to admit of an expression of definite opinion. He was at work, and that was all he could say.
 The Age-Herald's account of this great business venture attracted most favorable attention in the city yesterday The pros- pect of two new 400-ton pig iron furnaces, a steel plant and new water system for Birmingham created the livel!est interest. These things depend upon the assurance of sufficient flow of water from the pro- posed artesian wells. Whether that can be obtained the experimental well now being bored will determine. J n
 But men with knowledge of such mat ters declare that the new company can ob- tain all the water desired by merely boring for it; and evidently the men directly in- terested have faith in that proposition or they would not be spending so much money in the way of investigation or experiment.
 A general feeling of confidence prevails in the city. It is difficult to find a business man who doubts that the Baltimore and Richmond investors engaged in this latest Birmingham enterprise will find water enough for all their purposes. If the water be found, it will result in vast benefit to the city and district It would mean the spending of millions of capital here almost immediately.

POULTRY SHOW
Promises to Become a Fad in Social
 Circles.

Much interest is manifest in the fourth annual exhibition of the Alabama Poultry, Pigeon and Pet Stock association, which will be held in this city beginning on Mon day next and continuing through the week. Secretary c. H. Cole yesterday announced that the exhibition would be held in large tent on the lot next to the Y. M. c. A. building in Nineteenth street.
 It has also been decided to hold the en- tries open until Saturday evening at 6 o'clock in order to accommodate the many exhibitors who have applied for entry blanks.
 The show promises to become fad in social circles like the horse show in New York and it is rumored that several large parties of society folk have already arr ranged to attend the show, which will be kept open until 10 D. m. every evening.
 Many beautiful specimens of the fancy fowls will be on exhibition and the compe- tition for the various prizes offered by the association promises to be warm.

LOCAL FOOTBALL
 AND BASKETBALL

The football team of the Athletic club is having very satisfactory practice work, considering the fact that it is an athletic club team. When men work hard all day it is very hard to get them to practice reg ularly every night. Nevertheless a num- Der of them have been working very regu- 1arly. The men don't like the frozen con- dition of the ground particularly, yet their play has lot of dash in it, for they must necessarily keep warm. The team excited a great deal of attention last night in one of their long runs through the streets of the city.
 The men who are to line up against the team, picked from the officers of the Fourth army corps at Anniston, next Saturday, have not yet been definitely selected, a

FREIGHT WRECK
On the L. & N. Yesterday at Calera-
 Only Slight Damage.

There was small freight wreck yester- day morning about o'clock on the Louis vile and Nashville in the freight yards at Calera. The first section of northbound No. 2S was standing at the tank taking water, when the fourth section of No. 20, south- bound, ran into it. The cause assigned is that the air brakes of No. 25 failed to work. No one was injured at all, and after several hours work by the wrecking crew from Birmingham the track was cleared. The two engines were not very badly damaged one of them coming to Birmingham under it's own steam. Several freight cars, some of them containing pig iron, were smashed.

The rails have been received in the city and the work of distributing them along the line began yesterday. The work of laying them will proceed rapidly. This will be very great improvement for the Ensley line and will enable the Electric company to give their patrons an excellent service.

Officer Bodeker of the police department, who is absent from the city, is said to be at work on clue to the whereabouts of Will Golson, the slayer of Chief Deputy Sheriff Robert Warnock. Officer Bodeker is not novice at the business, and 1t is safe to say that he is at least at work on a strong theory. Up to a late hour last night he had not reported to police headquarters.
