Announcement.

For the next 30 days subscrip-
tions to the KooTENAI HERALD will
be received at the rate of Sl.0O per
annum, payable in advance. Old
subscribers may obtain the paper
at the same rate by settling all ar
rearages due, or by making definite
arrangements for the payment of
the amount due. The price has
heretofore beer $500 per annum.
The object Of the HERALD in
making this radical reduction has
been two-fold: First, we wish to
secure a settlement of an innumer-
able lumber Of small accounts
the annoyance of all newspaper
publishers. And, second, we de-
sire to largely in crease our sub
scripti9n list at once.
Even at the price heretofore
charged, our subscription list has
grown to dimensions above the
average Of country newspapers,
and we believe that the reduction
made will bring the results desired.
This offer is for 30 days only
from April 8, and we trust that our
regular patrons especially will
avail themselves of our offer, out
of courtesy to whom it is in no
small degree made. At the end of
80 days a new regular rate will be
named.

Numerous letters have been
received by Virginia friends
from those who recently left for
the San Pedro mines, in Mexico,
and the epistles are as widely
variant in the general descrir.
ton and impression Of the coun-
try as can be conceived. While
one writes that the weather CON-
pares. favorably with Mesaba
weather in May, another states
that he was never so cold in all
his life.. The report of wages
aud mercantile values is seem.
ingly gauged by the same ther
mometer. While some may stay
and find peace and plenty in their
new home. it IS not improbable
that others of the party will be
back among Virginia friends
within a few weeks.
N. A. Holmer, the fashionable
merchant tailor, will shortly

order books of outside tailors
and travelling fakirs who annual.
ly make the roundup of the
camps and who have no reputa-
ton to lose if the clothes deliv-
cred are not. up to standard. Mr..
Holmer is an excellent tailor, a
man of % years experience in
the business, and guarantees sat-
isfaction as to style, fit and work
manship, and his reputation on
the range should serve as a pass
word to the confidence of the
woodsman who wants an up and
up suit when he comes oot in :he
spring. Those favoring him
with their orders will have no
cause for regret.
According to the Hibbing Sen

lease of the News plant to Mr..
Smith, whom we welcome back
to the fold, even though his re-
turn may not have been entirely
from choice. The SentiLel man
is not given to quarreling with
his fraternal nei9hbors=but he
takes a kind and richly deserved
fall out of the dummy-fghter of
the News, which he should pre-
serve and hand down to posterity
as a memert to of the halcyon days
when he knew more than anv
other newspaper man on the
range-in his mind. He will
perhaps know more as he grows
older; if he does not it will not
be for lack Of information which
abounds outside the Uranium of
the average idiot.
For the third time in the his
tory of the nation, IN recognition
of the Importance of a brilliant
enterprise, Postmaster General
Gary has decided to order a ser
les of special postage stamps
commemorative of the Trans.
Mississippi and International Elk
position at Omaha in 1898. The
stamps will be issued in desoml
nations of 1, 2, 5 and 1O.cents,
making it possible for the public
to use these stamps on all out
gong foreign aswell as domestic
mail matter and packets. In the
United States there are 10000
post ofi@es, 50 that the wide
spread circulation of the special
stamps suggestive of the Trans.

BIRMINGHAM TO BE
 MUCH GOVERNED Four Fifferent Mayors Will Rule Over the City in As
 Many Weeks.

During the next four weeks Birmingham will be ruled by four different mayors.
 In the absence of Mayor Evans, who left yesterday at noon on his bridal tour, the duties of his office will be in the hands of four of the aldermen, who will divide the time, each serving one week. Alderman John L. Parker will serve the first week, Alderman William J. Pearce the second, Alderman John J. Altman the third and Alderman Walter Moore the fourth. Alder man Parker stepped into the mayors shoes soon the Louisville and Nashville train pulled out the union station yester- day and took to the duties of the office as natural as a duck takes to water.
 The genial little alderman from the Eighth ward says he is the youngest mayor that ever ruled over the destinies of Bir- mingham, but refused to divulge his age to an Age-Herald reporter when the ques- tion was put.
 Acting Mayor Parker's first day in office was devoid of special interest, but he is equal to any emergency, and says that he is prepared to solve the ,knottiest municipal questions.

 Upon their return to Birmingham about the latter part of August, Hon. and Mrs. Evans will reside at their home, corner of Seventeenth street and Seventh avenue, Mrs. Evans, as Miss Wlder since her resi- denee in Birmingham has drawn about her a large circle of friends and admirers because of her strong womanly character istics and her gentle, lovable, attractive personality. She is daughter of the late Gaston H. Wilder, of North Carolina, who was paymaster-genera in the Mexican war and state senator for twelve years and was man of prominence and influence in the political and social history of his na- tive state.
 Hon. Frank V. Evans has been identified ever since his residence in this city with all the best interests of the community and has contributed very greatly to the up= building of this ,Alabama's most important city Although reared in Georgia, he Is an Alabamian in the best sense, and has been for many years one of the most in fluential factors in the progress of this sec tion He is a journalist of rare ability politician of judgment, discretion and fn- telectual capacity; an official, honest thorough and conscientious; a man, loyal true and devoted to his friends; a man of convictions, with the courage of those con- victions, to whom the entire community tenders warmest congratulations at this time of his happiness.

 ciaI Session.

Tonight at S:30 o'clock the clerks will throw open the doors of their elegant quar- ters, corner Nineteenth street and Third avenue, to their friends and the general public, the occasion being q social session, during which the officers recently elected will be publicly installed.
 The entertainment committee has left nothing undone, and the affair promises to be a memorable one in the history of the Clerks association, which is one of the strongest and most influential of local labor organizations.
 An interesting program has been arr ranged, consisting of vocal and instrument al selections by some of the most promi- nent musicians of the city. After the rem dition of the program dancing will be in order, and the waltz and two-step will serve to pleasantly while away a few hours.
 The salesladies who at the last meeting affiliated with the association have con- tributed no little to the success of the af- fair, and the gallant clerks will no doubt give much attention to the "social feat ure under the irresistible influence of the gentle Sex."

This District Can Ship Steel to Germany and Belgium at Cheaper Cost Than it Can There be Manufactured
 A Great Future.

Col. William Garrett, of Cleveland, O., inventor of the Garrett rod mill and mem- Der of the firm of Garrett-Cromwell Engi- neeing company, has been spending few days in the city.
 Colonel Garrett was brought to Birming- ham by the erection of the big steel mill at Ensey, and his business here was to in- duce the Alabama Steel Mill and Ship building company to use his mill in the making of rods. The Garrett mill is the most used of all the rod mills now in eX- istence Eighty-five per cent of all rods manufactured in the United States last year were made on the Garrett mill. There were over 9O0,000 tons of rods made and sold in the United States in 1897. Wire rods is the base for making wire fencing and steel nails.
 Colonel Garrett was seen at the Morris last night by Age-Herald reporter and said:

IN THE HANDS
 OF THE SHERIFF
Parish Confectionery tstab|ish- ment-The Proprietor Has
 Disappeared.

Yesterday afternoon the soda water and confectionery establishment of l. S. Parish, at 1910 Second avenue, was attached by the | J. H. McCary company for $7O0, the at tachment being executed by Chief Clerk AL bert Stradford of Sheriff O'Brien's office. MT. Parish, the proprietor who also oc- cupied the position of bcokkeeper and cashier for the J. H. McCary company, | wholesale dealeers in fruits and produce, | has been missing since Monday evening | last, and his whereabouts are unknown. | It is alleged that a small shortage has been discovered in his books, and the at- tachment was made to cover this amount | and $2OO alleged to have been loaned him | by the McCary company.
 The confectionery business has been run as a side issue, and was in charge of A. E. Atwater MT. Farishs father-in-law, and w. c. Fol, MT. Farishs principal time be- ing taken up with his duties in the office
 of the McCary company.
 Mr. Parish has been in the employ of the McCary company for about three years, during which time he has handled large sums of money, and has enjoyed the en- tire confidence of his employers. Previous to that time he has held several responsi- ble positions with prominent business houses in a like capacity.
 Mir Parish left the office of the McCary company, in Morris avenue, at 7:30 o'clock Monday evening, and went direct to his confectionery store, in Second avenue, where he remained a short time. The last seen of him was by MT. Foll, his clerk, who
 noticed him leave the store about o'clock. MT. Parish resided with his father-in-1aw in Jonesville, and it is said has not been home since Monday.
 The disappearance of the man is some-
 what shrouded in mystery, but his friends
 claim that he will show up and arrange
 matters.
 J. H. McCary, president of the J. H. Me-
 Cary company, was seen yesterday after
 noon by an Age-Herald reporter and said:
 MT Parish has been in my employ about
 three years, and came to me highly recom-
 mended He has had absolute charge of the
 office. He left the office Monday evening,
 and nothing has been seen of him since.
 We are checking up his books, and have
 found small sh Drtago of a few hundred
 dollars. We loan ad him $2OO for his con
 fectionery business, which we have attach
 ed to protect ours elves"
 The McCary company will probably lose
 nothing, and it is believed the matter will
 be settled up in a few days.
