WOULDN'T FEED THE TRAPMs.
The Kid Ball Club Failed to Keep Their
Agreement With the Tramps.

The Kid Ball Club Failed to Keep Their
Agreement With the Tramps.
Monday afternoon the kid base
ball club went down to the headquarters
of the tramps and arranged game of
base ball, and, as the tramps say,
agreed to give them their supper if
they beat them in the game. Time
was called and after the nine innings
had been played the score stood 81 to
Is in favor of the tramps. They felt
pretty good over their victory, as they
had good meal in sight and were
anxious to get at it. The kids were
feeling equally sad, for they never
thought for q moment that the tramps
could beat them. For two or three
weeks the kids have been playing
games with the tramps who have como
through here and in every instance
they have been winners, but this time
they struck crowd that had some
ability in the way of base ballists. It
is reported that q look of dismay came
over the faces OF the boys when they
saw the game was against them and
one by one they quietly walked away
and the tramps were without their sup
per. One of the hoboes called at the
Office in the evening to make protest
against the way the kids had used
them, but the editor was unable to offer
them anything, other than sympathy
in the loss of their supper. The tramp
declared, however, that sympathy
didn't do thing toward alleviating the
pangs of hunger which had been
aroused by unusual exercise in the
game of ball.

that are of vital interest to druggists
of this state, particularly with refer

medicine manufacturers on the war
revenue tax. He touched upon this
point quite strongly and urged the
association to adopt some measure that
will bring the manufacturer to
q proper recognition of things in the
way of business. The president also
presented another matter to the assoc

ers selling their goods to the depart
ment houses at less rates than they
sell to the druggists point he
thought the association ought to make
some effort to remedy. The president
also touched on what is termed as the
saloon drug store and urged the assoc

The Council Has Decided to Go Ahead
With the Arteslan Well Project.
Saturday evening the city council
held special meeting to take up the
matter of making contract to put
down another artesian we'll. Several
bills which were laid over from the
regular meeting were brought up and
allowed "a follows:
F. P. Stearns, insuring GENE

The bill of DR.. j. M. Tatman for
S12, for attending to the tramp who was
shot early in July by the sheriff, was
notallowed, for the reason that the city
did not employ the DR.. and that the
tramp was clearly q county charge.
On the recommendation of Attorney
Spangler the bill was rejected.
The artesian we'll question was next
taken up and the proposition of Mr..
Mahanna was read, which, as was stated
in these columns few days ago, was that
he would put down the we'll to a depth
of $50 feet at a price of S2.68 per foot.
Before putting the motion Alderman
Bracy took occasion to make q few re-
marks on the matter, in which he
stated his objections to putting down a

A PRtiTY COMPLlMENf
Paid to MT. and Mrs. B. M. Starks by lonis-
 vile and Nashville Employees

Yesterday afternoon very pretty com- p.5ment was paid Mir. and Mrs. B. M Starks of Louisville by the employees of the South and North and the Birmingham Mineral divisions of the Louisville and Nashville srailroad.
 MT. Starks until the first of the year was assistant superintendent of these di- visions, but at that time was promoted to the office of superintendent of the Louis- vile division with headquarters in Louis Yille
 Yesterday a committee Of the railroad employees called on Mrs. Starks who has been visiting friends in the city, and pre- sented her for MT. Starks with hand some gold watch and chain, and Mrs. Starks herself with B beautiful little gold pendant. Both of them were presented as tokens of esteem by the employees of the road with whom Mir Starks had been as- sociatea during his residence in Birming- ham.
 Mr. Starks has been expected to visit Birmingham for several days, but found that he could not do so. Mrs. Starks was to leave hast night, so the opportunity was taken to make the presentation through

tomorrow night at Elks' hall at which time the reports of the officers aud com mittees will be made. It is unofficia.sy given out that the celebration has proven a financial success as well otherwise
 The society was burdened with a debt of nearly g. GOO deficiency from the 1897 ceie- bration which has been settled in full. This excellent showing reflects great credit upon the able officers of the society, and also upon each individual member and upon those citizens who have contributed so hb- eraiiy to its support.
 At the meeting of the society the ques- ton of next years celebration will be raised and will probably be decided af- firmatively.
 The Award of Prizes
 The award of prizes for the most artistic, most beautiful alld most original floats has been made.
 The prize for the most artistic went to the Central of Georgia Railway company which had entered the, beautiful model of the steamer "City of Birmingham" of the Ocean Steamship line. It was almost the unanimous opinion of those who saw the parades that this float was entitled to this prize. In point of excellence it was by far the most artistic float entered.
 Loveman, Joseph & Loeb captured the prize for the most beautiful float. It rep resented pleasure garden of ancient times, faithfully reproduced in a wonderful crea- ton of symmetry and grace. Music from a cornet and piano blended into a soft har- mony which the design represented.
 The prize for the most original design was awarded to Louis Saks. the clothier. This float represented passenger coach which was faithfully reproduced in detail and was greatly admired by the crowds as it moved along, propelled by an under ground trolley in the shape of a horse

WILL BE NO RATE WAR
Says Secretary Fleming, of the Southeastern
 Tariff Association.

'"rhere is no prospect of an insurance rate war in Birmingham so far as can see,' said c. c. Fleming, secretary of the Southeastern Tariff association, to an Age Herald reporter last night. "The agents certainly don't want a rate war, for 1t would be ruinous to their interests to get to cutting rates. There is no use in any war, as the rates now are fairly equitable, and l don't believe there will be any"
 Other than this MT. Fleming refused to say anything. He would not even tell the real object of his visit to Birmingham But there are a number of general agents of insurance companies in the city, be- sides Secretary Fleming, and if is supposed that they are here looking into the facts of the rumored rate war and also into the recent reduction by the Southeastern Tar if association of the rate on mining prop erty to one dollar As has been printed before, this rate is considered entirely too low by the local agents, and it is a rate which was unsought by any of them.

this association memorialize the secretary of agriculture, recommending the adoption by this government in regard to this im- portant question.
 w. K. Pickens, a well-known swine breeder of Livingston, who was invariably prevented from attending the meeting, sent a paper on How I make pigs weigh 100 pounds in 10 days" which was read by the president. The paper was based upon MT Pickens' actual experience and deal with the food question, recommending bran shorts and kitchen slops mixed to the con- sistancy of mush
 The paper was ably discussed. Dr. c. A. sCary, veterinarian of the Agricultural and Mechanical college at Auburn, was opposed to feeding slops to pigs. He attributed much of the disease among animals to this cause.
 Prof. J. F. Duggr. also of the Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical college, spoke on the subject He was of the opinion too much reliance was placed in corn as food for brood sows. H advocated the use of peas and peanuts.
 Samuel l.. Smith of Troy stated that he had found the peanut an excellent food. By planting his corn wide apart he could plant the nut between and when developed he turned his hogs into the field and had obtained excellent results.
 J. B. Wadsworth said he believed the artichoke the best and cheapest food for swine. Prof. Dugger stated that his experi- ments with artichokes had proven unsat- isfactory, although he would not say 1t was a failure. He also stated that he had found sorghum an unsatisfactory food.
 At the afternoon session Dr. Cary deiiy- cred an instructive lecture upon "The An- atomy of the Hog" He took up the score points and gave clear explanation Of each part of the body of the animal, its good and bad points He used pictures of the animal to point out the technical parts and also the different variety of breeds. His lecture was heard with great attention.
 The meeting then adjourned until 10 o'clock this morning, when the annual eleo- ton of officers VII Hake place.
 After the meeting the members adjourned to Gibson's stable. in Twentieth street. where Dr. Cary gave instructions in SCOT ing. Two fine specimens of Berkshire hogs. the property of President Hanby of tho association, were used.
 The Alabama Swine Breeders association has done much toward improving the breed of hogs in this state.

all. They were afraid Of the search light of Investigation being turned on and were trying to soft-soap the city council.
 The water company makes contracts with private consumers, which violates the contract with the city. When London ad- mitted that he gave way his whole case. Now as to the question of pressure Are you to believe your fire chief. a disinter- ested witness. when he says on oath that If he had had the proper pressure he would have saved the most magnificent structure in the entire community, the Caldwell lhotel? If you fail to believe him, say that he has lied and discharge him as an unworthy officer. He dared to come here and meet this octopus, this anaconda and say: Yes. you did fall to furnish the proper pressure God Almighty respects such manhood.
 Why Are the Complaints
 ''why are all bills complained of com promised? There must be rascality in fix ing the charges. They as much as say: If you don't catch us. we shall keep it up: if you do, we will yield like gentlemen and philanthropists. London ridiculed Mims Stones testimony because he is in the filter business. What If he is? London is in the water business. Mims wants to sell his filters, and Alex wants to sell his impure and unwholesome water.
 Stands Like a Sentinel
 If the water is good, why was 1t that for time the columns of the Age-Herald were filled with the advice 'b7,l the waterY It seemed to be a sentinel on the watch tower which warned the people of their danger and implored them for their own sake to boil the water, boil the water. boil the water.'"
 Col. Denson then quoted Wanklyn. the greatest authority on water the world has ever known and showed that Wanklyn would have characterized suspicious and dangerous the analysis made by Dr. W. B. Phillips, the ''expert." "When man wants an authority on liquor,' said Col. Denson, ''he goes to a Kentuckian; when he wants an authority on water. he goes to Wauk- lyn."
 Col. Denson then produced a copy of The Age-Herald of Nov. 2O 1897. and started to read card from c. H. Fernald. in which he took issue with pr. Phillips as to how the water analysed by Dr. Phillips should be classed
 MT. London objected to the article as evidence, as there had been no opportunity to cross-examine Fernald
 Afraid of the Truth
 "I won't insist on reading it." said Col. Denson, "but your objection only shows
