 Judge Benners fixed her bond at $l,OOO, which she succeeded in making yesterday morning. The hearing has been set for Monday morning before Justice Benners and large crowd will no doubt be pres ent to hear the trial.

TO INVESTIGATE
 PROPOSED ROUTE Of the Boulevard Along the Crest of Red Mountain. COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Will Go Over it Next Week-Driving Club to Be Organized in Event the Road
 is Built-WouId Prove
 an Attraction.
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS

The members of the board of county commissioners have been prevented by the rains during the last few days from go- ing over the route of the proposed boule- yard along the top of Red mountain, but they will make the trip as soon as possi- ble-probably the first of next week.
 Maj. F. Y. Anderson, who is one of the chief promoters of the scheme, is at pres ent out of the city, but he will return on Monday.
 In speaking of the boulevard the other day, Major Anderson said that he did not suppose the work would cost over $200O0, and he estimated that the city and county would be more than recompensed for this outlay simply by having this splendid road as an advertisement for the city.
 Every visitor, said Major Anderson, who comes to Birmingham and is given a bird s-eye view of this magnificent dis trict from along the summit of Red moun- tain cannot but be impressed with it's wonderful sources of wealth.
 He called attention to the fact that there was not d single road in Jones Valley, aWever well they may be macadamized, that was not so cut up by railroads as to make it almost unfit for driving purposes.
 On the prospects of the mountain boule- yard there is already being agitated the question of forming a driving club similar to those in Atlanta and other cities. Red Mountain park would make an ideal place for the club house, and most delightful entertainments could be held there during the summer months. Maj. F. Y. Anderson, Jack W. Johhston, John W. Tomlinson, Robert H. Baugh and others are inter- ested in this movement

BANKS WILL NOT
 RECEIVE ANY BONDS

Washington, July 15.-Assistant Secretary Vanderlip announces that corrected results show that the total subscriptions to the war loan amounts in round numbers in- cluding syndicate bids, to $1, ,365, ,0oO, 0O0 MT. Vanderlip stated that those subscriptions for amounts below 5000 will be allotted those for exactly that amount will be awarded part of it, and the subscriptions for more than 5000 will be rejected.
 Secretary Gage has made public the fol- lowing: Tt may be now considered set tied that no allotment of bonds can be made to banks, corporations or other forms of associated capital. The subscriptions made by individuals receive preference un- der the law and the aggregate of individ- ual subscriptions is far in excess of the total amount of bonds offered. In fact, no allotment to individual subscriptions will be possible where such subscriptions are in excess of S5.000-that is to say. the full $200. 900 has been subscribed for by indi- viduals in amounts of 5000 or less"

JIM FLEMING
 CUT HIS WIFE Because She Would Not Give Him Fifteen CentS-Placed
 behind the Bars.

Jim Fleming a young negro who has figured in police court before was arrested yesterday afternoon by Officers Hamilton and Culpepper on charge of assault with intent to murder and locked up in the city prison.
 Yesterday morning Fleming asked his wife for 15 cents to get breakfast and be- cause she refused to give it to him he is alleged to have proceeded to carve it out of her inficting a wound on her face just below the left eye.
 The matter reported to police head quarters and Fleming is said to have made threats against. any officer who attempted to arrest him. Officer Hamilton at once started out in search of him and finally located him in a house on Second avenue, near Eighteenth street. Officer Cupepper, who had also been on his trail was sum moned and the two officers entered the huose Officer Hamilton through the rear and Officer Culpepper through the front. Officer Hamilton was the first to go lnto the house and Fleming was appraised or his coming and made break for the front door, where he was met by O Ser Culpep- ped, who covered him with his pistol and ordered him to surrender Fleming made no resistance and was placed under ar rest and taken to police headquarters.
 After his arrest he made threats against his wife, and is alleged to have said that unless she left town he would kill her.
 The woman was badly frightened and said that Fleming made her give him every cent of money she made by sewing and other honest work Judge Feagin will hear the evidence this morning and it is probable that Fleming will be severely dealt with.

Requirements of the War Revenue
 Bill on "Mixed' Flour.
WILL STOP THE PRACTICE
Every Package Must Be Labeled and is Sub ect to Tax--Low Price of Wheat lnSures an Unadul'erat-
 ed Artic e.

No little interest has been manifested internal revenue war tax requiring that all mixed fiours' shall be labeled as such will have on the flour trade in general. By mixed four is meant tine food prod uct made from wheat mixed or blended in whole or in part with any other grain or other material, or the manufactured terial than wheat
 The law provides that every person man. ufacturng or packing mixed flour shall plainly mark or brand on each sack or barrel the words mixed four in plain black letters not less than two inches Tn length together with the names of the sides this, the packer must put in each sack or barrel a small card on which shall be printed the same information that is labeled on the outside. The tax levied by the government on this kind of flour is cents per barrel, cents per half-barrei and one-half cent for the regular one eighth barrel sack. The law does not go into effect until Angus u.
 q think, that this law effectually breaks up all mixing of wheat nour,' said B. B. Conner, president of the Conner mills, yes terday "In the first place, no manufac- turer is going to be willing to have any of his goods labeled in big letters mixed four" or, in the eyes of the public, 'adul- terated four It would ruin his business at once.
 cheap that there is no necessity for mix ing the wheat flour with cheaper ingredi- ents It is only in times when wheat is very high that adulteration is an induce ment to the miller or to the grocer. It looks to me as if wheat is going down to 60 cents before the season is over.
 ''We don't grind any wheat ourselves, but one of our corn products, called the flour of corn,' has been in very good de- mand by the mixers of wheat flour. It is equally as wholesome as the wheat it. self, and even the most expert chemists cannot detect it when mixed with wheat flour. But the real evil of flour mixing begins when glucose, corn starch, and in some cases, I understand, mineraine sub stances are used. I think the whole cus- tom deserves to be broken up."

SUNDAY SCHOOL
 MISSION WORK
Efforts to Establish a Perma- nent Institution in This
 City.

The Birmingham Mission Sunday school, which is being conducted under the direc- tion of Von L. Thompson, Is doing noble work in the cause of religion and of hu- manity.
 The school has only recently been organ ized, and already the success that is has attained has proven an inspiration to it's promoters to renewed effort in behalf of the little street waifs who are growing up without any religious instruction MT. Thompson, who is al the head of the school. is going about the work in very system- atic way, and is assisted by a corps of able teachers, who are leaving nothing undone to bring the little ones into the fold.
 It is the intention of the promoters to make the school a permanent institution, and at no very distant date to establish d mission home for the benefit of the poor and illiterate.
 The necessity of such institution is plainly evident, and the assistance of well- known and prominent church workers has been pledged to the movement.
 MT. Thompson is very enthusiastic over the prospects and believes that the success of the institution is already assured.
