NEW MINING MACHINERY
Put in the Ore Mines in Franklin
County

Morris Adler and Albert Adler of this
city have just placed orders for a great
deal of new mining machinery, in the ma
ture of washers, ETC., TO be used in the old
ore mines at Russellville, in Franklin
county.
A branch of railroad connecting with the
old Northern Alabama, now a part of the
Southern, has just been built, and prepara-
tons are being made to begin shipments
of ore to the various furnaces of the state.
These mines at Russellville have been in
operation for some time, but the mining
was of a very primitive sort Most of the
oueput has heretofore been sent to the fur
mace at Sheffield. When the new machinery
is put in and the mine gets to working
under modern methods, 1t is expected that
these shipments will be more diversified.

and one that was going to result in the

No attempt was made during the meet
ing at raising money for the educational
fund. This is a work which is to be car
ried on by every congregation. in the most
thorough manner possible In the churches
of the North Alabama conference, there
are now $4,000 members, and if they sub

the general conference.-the dollar per
member-the fund furnished by this Sec
ton of the state will amount to $50 900
only.
They VIII De Better
But the Methodist churches of the Bir-
mingham district have determined to do
better than this. and with their member
ship numbering about seven thousand, they
have determined to raise an amount of
nifty thousand dollars, nearly as much as
the amount assigned to the whole confer
ence. This will make the contribution OF
each member of the church in this district
average over 81.
The churches have eighteen months
within which to collect this money, after
which it will be turned over to commit
tee appointed by the conference for the
purpose. This committee will turn over 80
per cent. of the fund for distribution
among the church schools of North Ala
bama, and the remaining 20 per cent will
go to the theological department of Wander
bilt and other general educational institu-
tons of the whole southern church.

two powerful divines who were in charge
of the meetings here. will hold similar
meetings in Kansas City next Tuesday and
