MILES SMITH
Found Responsible For Death of Jim
 Logan.

Coroner Alex Dallas yesterday completed the investigation into the death of Jim Lo- gan, the negro who was found dead near Wheeling on Wednesday morning, with ev- idence of having been waylaid and mur- dered.
 As was stated in Thursdays Age-Herald, Coroner Dallas was called to the scene and organized jury, which yesterday rendered it's verdict, holding Miles Smith, another negro, responsible for Logans death.
 Quite a number of witnesses were exam ined, who testified that Logan and Smith had been on bad terms for some months, and that they had quarreled at a frol.c on the night previous to the finding of Logan s body.
 The negro was killed on lonely noun tain pathway by being shot with a Win chester rifle.
 After Logan left the "frolc" on Tues day night Smith was also seen to leave and appeared to be in a great hurry. About Il o'clock that night he borrowed a Win chester rifle from his brother-in-law, which, he stated. he wanted for the pur- turn 1t early the next morning.
 Smith nor the Winchester has been seen since and this, with other strong circum- stantial evidence, warranted the jury in believing that he had caused Logan's death.
 A warrant for Smiths arrest was sworn out at the instance of the coroner and an effort will be made to catch him.

ST. VINCENT'S HOSPITAL,
 FACTS OF THE ORDER

An event of great general interest will be the laying of the cornerstone of St. Vim cents hospital, Avenue G and Twenty seventh street, next Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock This magnificent structure is being erected by the well known and high ly esteemed order, or congregation, styled Sisters of Charity; but while the institu- tion is under Catholic auspices it is to be in the widest sense a public hospital, and the people of Birmingham, therefore, with out regard to race or creed, feel lively pride in it. The Right Rev. E. P. Allen, Bishop of Mobile, vested in purple soutane, white lace rochet and cope of white silk, embroidered in gold, will be the celebrant or officiating ecclesastic. He will be at tended by number of priests and acolytes the latter in red cassacks and white cottas and this group, under the canopy of heaven and in the soft shadows of declining day. will present a singuly picturesque appear ance And there will be music and mli- tary escort to heighten the effect. But the feature of the occasion of deepest signifi- canoe will be the participation in the exer- cises of representative cergymen outside of the Catholic church-an Episcopal divine a Methodist divine, and a Jewish rabbi Surely nothing in the way of a practical demonstration of the breadth and progress sive character of the Catholic community could be more admirable or pleasing than this.
 The Sisters of Charity Hospital associa- tion of Birmingham was organized June g. 1898, by the election of the following officers: H. H. Sinnige, president; Robert Jemison and A. J. Riley, vice-presdents; W. P. McCrossin secretary, and B. Steiner, treas urer. Early in the fall half dozen sisters of ha hospital at the corner of Avenue B and Fourteenth street, and the good work that these consecrated women have done is gladly attested by physicians and others

Important to Mothers.

The manufacturers of Castoria have been compelled to spend hundreds of thusauds of dollars to familiarize the public with the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher. This has been necessitated by reason of pirates counterfeiting the Castoria trade mark. This counter teiting is a crime not only against the proprietors of Castoria, but against the growing generation. All persons should be careful to see that Castoria bears the signature of Chas. H Fetch. CT, if they would guard the health of their children. Parents and mothers m particular, ought to carefully exam inc the Castoria advertisements which have been appearing in this paper, and to remember that the wrapper of every bottle of genuine Castoria bears the fac-simile signature of Chas. H. Fetch CT, under whose supervision it has been continuously manufactured for over thirty years.-Phila. Bulletin.

SOCIAL

It is regretable that the average young lady is so inconsiderate in m any things Oftimes it Is merely thoughtlessness, but.
 sometimes. we regret to say. it is selfish
 ness. The young men get up dance,
 principally for the pleasure of the ladies.
 and put themselves to an expense and con
 siderable inconvenience to have little in-
 formal, and surely each young lady knows
 the poor fellows will have to be at their
 places of business on the morrow bright and early and work all day-perhaps late the next night-being on their feet and SO tired. yet the girls will dance on and on, till the band is forced to play Home. Sweet Home, to clear the hall, and it is then we'll into the small hours. The boy takes the girl home, and gets only an hour or so sleep, whereas the girl can and usual- ly does sleep till noon. Sometimes dance is proposed and the poor boy thinking of that dreadful tomorrow, declines to enter into 1t; so it falls through, and the selfish inconsiderate Miss loses pleasant even. ing.
 Surely dance could be started by S:30 aad closed by 11:3O-three hours being nple to tire all. yet giving them time to r'st ere the next day's business starts. The average boy will not kick or rebel openly, but ne does think. and acts. Of course. it is a pleasure for any man to do . I he can in any way to add to the pleas ures of the ladies. and they are usually alxious and willing to do so, despite the fatigue they know they will suffer. If the young ladies would only consider these things and act upon them, these pleasant events would occur more frequently.
 The leading social function this week was grand ball at Haynes. to which a large number of the dancers of this city were cordially invited. and to which they went, arriving at their destination about ten o'clock and leaving from 1:S0 to 9 o'clock next morning, arrived home about 3 to o'clock. The dance took place Tuesday night. All enjoyed the hospi. tality of the Haynes social circle and are profuse in their praise of the town. The following couples attended from this city {: Mrs. Mary Shade and Gordon Casteel, Hiss Mamie Pool and Tom Folbre, jr., Miss Tom Davis and s. Sanders, Miss Rose Laita and John Webb.
