I was so weak that could hardly walk across the floor without falling. had womb trouble and such bearing-down feeling also suffered with my back and limbs, pain in womb, inflammation of the bladder, piles and indigestion. Before I had taken one bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I felt great dea. better, and after taking two and one half bottles and half box of your Liver Pills I was cured. If more woulo take your medicine they would not have to suffer so much"

 ''DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:-I have suf- fered with womb trouble over fifteen years. l had Inflammation, enlarge ment and displacement of the womb. 1 had the backache constantly, also headache. and was so dizzy. l had heart trouble, it seemed as though my heart was in my throat at times chols- ing me. could not walk around and could not lie down, for then my heart would beat so fast I would feel as though I was smothering. l had to sit up in bed nights in order to breathe. 1 was so weak I conld not do any tEing.
 q have now taken several bot ties of Lydia E. PinlShans Vegetable Compound, and used three pack ages of Sanative Wash, and can say I am perfectly cured. do not think I could have lived long if Mrs. Pink hams medicine had not helped me"

Most of them already hold responsible positions at the various mines, and they came up for eer- tifcates of a higher grade than they had been holding, entitling them, of course, 10 higher positions. The appearance of the applicants, their bearing, and their char acter calls for warm praise. l confess lllat I was greatly pleased, and I took occasion to tell the men so. Those before us were mine foremen and miners, and they suomit- ted to the examination in the first and second classes.
 Amongst those before the board were
 w M. Lewis, who will have charge of the new mines of the Aldrch Mining company, in Marion county.

RAILROAD MEN IN
 SECRET SESSION Supposed to be Talking of
 Freight Rates. NOTHING WILL BElGlVEN OUT But fthe General Impression is That They Were Discussing Advisabil- fly of Raising the Rate on
 Pig Iron to the East.
NOTHING WILL BEGlVEN OUT

There are in the city a large number of partments of the great railroad lines con nected with Birmingham, and their presence here has given rise to many rumors.
 While not a word can be obtained from them as to their business it is believed that they are discussing the advisability of an increase in freight rates on pig iron
 General Freight Agent Charles B. Comp ton, of the Louisville and Nashville, whom everybody in Birmingham remembers so kindly and esteems so highly, was seen by an Age-Herald reporter last night as to the purpose and result of what was believed to be conference.
 "There is nothing I can tell you. regret to say," was Mir Compton's reply.
 MT. Compton then branched off on other topics.
 However, with all respect to MT. Comp ton, there is little reason to doubt that the principal reason for the gathering here of so many railroad magnates is to discuss and pass upon the question of increasing the freight rates on eastbound pig iron It is not believed that there is any purpose to increase the rate on iron shipped to gulf or the immediate South Atlantic ports. The visiting magnates spent most of the day with MT. Compton in his private apart ments at the Morris. Amongst those pres ent were:
 J. M. Culp, traffic manager of the South ern railway, with headquarters in Wash ington.
 L. Green, division freight agent of the Southern railway, with headquarters in Birmingham.
 L. Sevier, general freight agent of the Alabama Great Southern railroad, with headquarters in Birmingham.
 George R. Knox, general fcight agent of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis railroad, with headquarters in Nashville.
 Frank Browder, general freight agent of the Mobile and Birmingham, with head quarters at Selma.
 T. F. Steele, general freight agent of the New Orleans and Northeastern, with head quarters at New Orleans.
 E. Shriver, assistant general freight agent of the Cincinnati Southern, with heaGquar- ters at Chattanooga.
 w. M. Campbell, general freight agent of the Cincinnati and Eastern Illinois

LUMPKIN IMPROVING.
Sheriff of Dallas County Will Recover
 from Wounds.

Selma, January 2O.-(special.)- main topic of conversation today was the des- perate encounter between the sheriff and his posse and Charlie Nelson, the negro wno escaped from jail while under sentence to be hanged Numerous rumors are af1oat concerning the negro's whereabouts, but when the reports are hunted down they amount to nothing. The posses are all in and the authorities will await develop ments.
 Sheriff Lumpkins condition is improved today, he having passed a good night last night and there is now every reason to believe he will recover.
 The taking of the testimony in the con- tested election case of William F. Aldrich vs. Gaston A. Robbins commenced at Stan ton yesterday
 Only three witnesses came the twenty seven miles to swear for MT. Aldrich, and they only testified that they voted for him. No irregularities whatever were shown in the conduct of the election, and the court is farcical in the extreme

 Last night about 12 o'clock Police Officers Holt and Broadway had a personal diffi- culty on Alabama street, in front of the O. K store, between Walkers and Aicar- dis saloons From a by-stander it was learned that when MT. Broadway went on the force as a substitute for Officer Mum he made the statement that he was one po- liceman who would never take a drink while on duty. As Officer Holt, who was off duty passed Aicardi's saloon he saw Officers Burftt and Broadway coming out, and Holt said to Buritt: Frank, what was that about a policeman not taking a drink when on duty?" Before Burfitt could re- ply Broadway asked if he meant that re- mark to apply to him. Holt said no, he was referring to some one else, and laughed. Broadway insisted that he was hinting at him, and Holt gave the lie. Broadway struck at Holt with his billy" and either hit him or made him dodge so as to fall. As Holt came up he came with his pistol in his hand and Broadway shot at him, and had 1t not been for Officer Burfitt knocking his hand aside would probably have killed him.
 There is some conflict as to whether Holt had attempted to use his pistol before Broadway shot or not. The pistol when taken by MT. Tom Hralowski was cooked, but the hammer had caught and would not go down.
 Officer Mosely came up and took Broad way to the city hall, while Officer Burfitt followed with Holt Both officers were sus- pended this morning by the chief and will be tried before Mayor Meyer tomorrow afternoon at o'clock.
