done for the purpose of putting in steel plant to make open-hearth basic steel I have looked into the quality of pig iron in this district and find it most excellently suited for making steel of that class.
 .I have seen analysis taken from plates made by the Birmingham rolling mills that for quality may be equalled, but not ex- celled anywhere.
 "In looking the ground over, find that nature has been very bountiful towards this vicinity so far as giving within easy reach all natural advantages that are nec- essary to make pig iron especially suited for making open-hearth basic steel. The three main elements required for this pur- pose-iron ore, coal and mestone-may be found within a stone's throw of each other near Ensley. This is a marvellous eondi- tion.
 Cheapes in the World
 ''It is well-known fact that the cheap est pig iron made in the world is in this district and there is no reason why the cheapest steel used for the purpose of mak- ing rails, tin plate, wire fencing, wire nails and all sections of bar steel should not also be manufactured in this district at lower cost than anywhere in the United States.
 Make Cotton Ties at Home
 "In the United States, and largely in the southern portion of the country, about 3O- coo tons of cotton ties are annually used cotton tie is made of a strip of steel about seven-eighths of an inch wide and one-twentieth of an inch thick and, very strange, every pound of cotton ties is man. ufactured in northern states, while right here in Birmingham, in the very center of the cotton states, nature has given you every material more easily accessible than in any other state for this purpose. Yet you get your supply hundreds and hundreds of miles away
 sThe World Our Market
 '"The market for steel produced in this district can be found anywhere in the world. The easy access to seaboard and the cheapness of freight by water will en- able you to ship the material right into Germany or Belgium at a cheaper cost than it can be produced there.
 Tn all my travels through the principal countries of Europe, having in view a strict investigation as to where the cheapest steel can be produced .flowhere has nature been so lavish in giving all things necessary for making cheap iron or steel as in Bir- mingham.
 Great Future
 'I predict a great future and extraordi- nary prosperity for your city, the founda- tion stone of which is laid in the steel plant at Ensley. l have no hesitation in saying that owing to the ability and genius of the Wellman-Seavel company engineers, the Ensey mill will be success from the start"

SKILL OF DOCTORS TESTED.
Fifteen Years of Suffering.
81 thought | should surely die"

When the stomach begins to fail in
its duties, other organs speedily become
affected in sympathy, and life is simply a
burden almost unbearab1e. Indigestion
and dyspepsia are SO common that only
the sufferer from these diseases knows
the possibilities of misery that irhere in
them. A typical example of the sufferings
of the victim of indigestion is furnished
in the case of John c. Pritchard. He went
on for fifteen years, from bad to worse.
In spite of doctors he grew constantly
weaker, and thought he would die. He
got we'll, however, and thus relates his

DIR. Ayers Pills offer the surest and
swiftest relief from constipation and all
its attendant ills. They cure dizziness,
nausea, heartburn, palpitation. bad breath,

A JOKE THAT FAILED.

Windust's FacetiOus SugsesttOns
Acted Upon to His Detriment.
Back in the early sixties aud for many
years before and some years afterwa rd,
Edward Windust kept most popular
restaurant at ID Park row. He was a
peculiar man In many respects, and in
none SO much as tsickling for absolute
purity in everything he put upon the
tables for his guests. among whom were
most of the celebrities of the day. VIM
dust was always affable and good
natured. and dearly loved any kind of
an innocent joke. Every morning he
took big basket on his arm and trot-
ted down to Washington or Fulton
market to order supplies for the day,
some of the choicest of which he car
ried back in his basket. The dealers in
both markets knew him and were anx.
ious to sell to him, because they knew
that he would pay good prices for the
best of stuff. One old woman i'm Fulton
market supplied him with horseradish
for many years and for a short time
after he sprung what he thought was a
joke on her. He said to her one morn
ing: "Aunty, 1t seems TO me that YOUR
horseradish is not as strong as it used
to be. Are you sure you are not
adulterating it with something's
Indeed, l am not. What would I
use to adulterate horscradish, I'd like
to- know?"
Il don't know, but l began to sus-
pect that you were mixing ground tur-
nips with it." said Windust
Sure. l never thought of such a
thing" the woman answered.
Windust said many times afterward
that he devoutly wished that he had
never joked with the woman about the
matter, for he was never able to get
pure horseradish from her again, and
had TO give up trading with her after
20 years of pleasant business relations.

Some Cancellations of Statistfcians M

vision made officially in the United
States, and. taking the country
through, the proportion here is less,
probably, than 2 per cent. When it
comes, however. to the causes OF pow

to speak, right in line with what some
persons would call their conjectures,
but what they describe as their con-
illusions. Thus, of 100 cases of pow

What particular distinction the sta

There is a fox terrier of remarkable
intelligence installed as ruling factor
in very happy and harmonious house
hold uptown. One of the favorite
amusements of the terrier is PLAYING
with a soft rubber ball. The other
day member of the family filled the
soft ball with water. The terrier
pounced upon the ball. chewed down
en- it, squirted the water down bis
throat and dropped the ball. After re-
peated efforts he emptied the ball of
water and enjoyed his play. The next
day he again found the ball full of
water. and for awhile seemed very dis
consulate as he gazed sadly at the toy.
He left it for few minutes, and then.
rushing at the ball. deliberately stepped
upon it with one of his front feet and
stood upon it until the water was all
squeezed out. Since then no water has
