SHREWSBURY ST. SEWER.
1t VIII Cost Much Money to Prevent
Settling of Sewerage.

1t may be necessary to drive piles
in the Doggy land which underlies the
sewer in Shrewsbury street, before the
channel will be so fixed as to prevent
settling in future. Superintendent
Eddy estimates the cost of repairing
the channel, which has settled for a
distance of about 1000 feet, at between
$4,000 and $4,000 The placing of
closed manholes will serve as a tempo
rary relief, but it is apparent that the
channel must be relaid in the near fu-
ture.

A VERY BUSY DAY AT
 DRENNEN HEADQUARTERS
Manager Allen Claims Drennen Has Five of Parker's Executive Committee, and
 Three Others are Undecided.

Yesterday was an exceedingly busy day in the Drennen headquarters, as a great number of his supporters crowded the rooms all day long, Not only were num- bers of visitors received. but the work of checking off the poll lists and seeing that the campaign work in every ward of the city was thoroughly carried on kept the executive head of the campaign exceedingly busy.
 Another great source of qualification to the Drennen forces was the number of Par ker men who are coming over to their side.
 'I see that MT. Smiths friends claim that he has all the leaders of the Parker forces said B. M. Allen, MT. Drennen's manager, last night, ''but on this beg leave to diff fer. On Parker's executive committee there were twelve men, and of this number we have five positively: B. A. Thompson, F. L. varnell, W. K. Rosser, w. c. Adams and D. L. Bridges. Three of the remainder say they are undecided on which side they will vote. so that leaves MT. Smith only four out of the twelve. Not the whole committee by any means.
 Mot only have we gotten Parkers lead CTS, but the rank and file of his supporters are now in the Drennen camp. see no reason to change my first estimates that at least two-thirds of Parker's men will vote for Drennen. Tkis is not an idle political boast, but 1t can be backed by proof in our headquarters. We will be glad to convince

WILLIAM ]. BRYAN
 COMES THURSDAY Will Receive a Great Welcome in
 Great Birmingham. CROWDS TO GREET HIM Will Receive the Public in the After noon and Address His Fellow
 Citizens in the Audito-
 rum at Night.
CROWDS TO GREET HIM

The visit of William J. Bryan to Brm- ingham, which will begin at half-past 8 next Thursday morning, and will end at haif-past 10 Thursday night, attracts at tention all over Alabama; and there will be in the city on Thursday thousands of dem of the state, all eager to see and hear speak the great leader of the democracy of America.
 Mr. Bryan will hold public reception in the lobby of the Morris from ? to 3 o'clock Thursday afternoon, and at 7:30 Thursday evening he will deliver a public political address at the Auditorium. That great structure can accommodate thousands of men and women, and it will doubtless be crowded. All the railroads are expected to give reduced fares.
 The Age-Herafd has already published the list of the committee on the Bryan's reception, together with the general details of the great leaders visit.
 MT. Bryan spoke in Chattanooga last night and will speak in Nashville tomor- row night, coming to Birmingham directly by the Louisville and Nashville fast train due here at s.22. He comes from a triumph ant tour of Texas and Arkansas Amongst the speeches he delivered was one which, by special invitation, he addressed to the legislature of Texas, which sat in joint ses- sion to hear the orator.
 MT. Bryan has also made a partial tour of the central west, and wherever he has spoken he has received an extraordinary ovation.
 From Birmingham, MT. Bryan will travel to Memphis, where he will speak Friday night, continuing his tour the next day. In explanation of the somewhat zigzag course of his travels, like his journey from Chattanooga to Nashville, to Birmingham and to Memphis, it is stated that this is done in order that he may travel at night and thereby waste no daylight in pursuing his mission amongst the people. Thus he gets all necessary rest whilst actually travelling, and has the entire daytime for the public.

HENRY BOYD
A Colored Barber, Died Sunday Night
 From Eating Fried Oysters.

Henry Boyd, negro barber, died sud- denly Sunday night at the house of Alice Mccoy, a negro woman in Fifth alley, be- tween Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets, un- der circumstances which warranted an of ficial investigation by the coroner
 Boyd was down town until 8:30 o'clock, and before going to the woman's house ate a dozen raw oysters and had some fried, which he took with him in a small tin bucket. After arriving at the house he and the woman ate several of the fried oysters, when he suddenly fell back in his chair and gasped for breath. The woman became greatly frightened, and ran out to summon help. Dr. Gotten was sent for, but before he arrived Boyd was dead.
 The facts were reported to Coroner Dal- las, who yesterday made a preliminary ex- animation, but found no evidence of foul play, and rendered verdict accordingly
 Boyd was well known in the city, having lived here for a number of years. He was married, but has not lived with his family for some time. His remains were taken in charge by relatives and inferred.

MUNICIPAL CAMPAIGN
 IS GETTING FEvERISH
DETAILS OF DESTRUCTION
 BY TERRIFIC CYCLONE

any man of this fact if he cares to call and see our proofs.
 Nearly all of these men say that they have been supporting Parker because he was opposed to the so-called ring which is now in charge of city politics. These men are now coming to Drennen as their second choice, who represents in that respect MT. Parker's ideas exactly. AS I said before, these men have been crowding our bead quarters all day, and over half of them are men that have never been there before. Drennen's campaign Is progressing most enthusiastically"
 An enthusiastic Drennen rally was held last night in the Ninth ward, at which there was large number of voters present The Drennen club which has been organ ized in that ward, has 155 members, and is increasing every day. The speaking last night was at the invitation of this club B. M. Allen, Nathan L. Miller and Mike McGovern were the speakers of the even ing, and all of them spoke in most convinc- ing terms of MT. Drennens candidacy.
 Clubs are being organized in all of the wards, and during the next two weeks ad- dresses will be made to all of them by prominent Drennen speakers.

Both Sides Are Making Big
 Claims. HOT STATEMENT BY PEARCE Was a Busy Day at Drennen
 Headquarters. PUBLIC SPEAKING LAST NIGHT Pearce Says He Gets No Inspiration of Honesty from Allen or Drennen- Claims 90 Per Gent. of
 Parker Strength.
PUBLIC SPEAKING LAST NIGHT

Only two more weeks are left in which figure, and they taking full advantage of the passing moments. As the time for selecting the election managers approaches the contest grows warmer and each side is watching the other with suspicion and keeping an eye on all the proceedings The main bone of contention just now seems to be the disposal of the voting strength which MT. Parker left in retiring from the field. MT. Drennen claims he vii receive seventy-tive per cent. of this vote, while the Smith forces go him fifteen bet ter and assert that they will get at least ninety per cent. of the same coveted vote. Since this aforesaid strength cannot boast of but one hundred per cent. in toto, some- body must be mistaken. AS to the identity of the erroneous party the eager public will have to wait two more long weeks before ascertaining.
 In answer to the Drennen statement in Sunday mornings Age-Eerald, Manager Pearce gave out the following interview last night:
 Mr. Pearce's Hot Statement
 ''The Drennen people realize that they are badly whipped, and in their efforts to prejudice the candidacy of MT. Smith are circulating reports that the election will not be fair.
 "The election will be absolutely fair, and every safeguard will be thrown around 1t to keep the political tricksters of MT. Drennen from stealing it.
 "The supporters of MT. Smith do not get their inspirations of virtue and honesty from MT. Allen and MT. Dren- nen. It has been our purpose to con- duct a campaign on dignifed and fair lines and free from bitterness, but it seems that MT. Allen wishes to depart from this policy. We stand ready to meet him and whip his crowd on any lines that he may suggest.
 By reason of the friendly relations that has always existed between the friends of MT. Parker and MT. Smith, am sure after a careful canvass of MT. Parker's friends that MT. Smith will get 90 per cent. of them.
 Speaking at Opera House
 "There will be a meeting at the opera house Monday evening, at which time speeches will be made by Hon. John w. Tomlinson, A. G. Smith, John c. Pugh, M A. Porter, John Mcqueen, James Tanner, Reuben F. kolb, D. K. Camp bell, Fred s. Ferguson, Rufus N. Rhodes, Robt. J. Lowe and several others.
 "Mr. Smith will also be heard from at this meeting on the issues in this cam paign, and will reply to the attacks made on him by Mir. Drennen and his newspaper organ"
 It is understood that MT. Smith will challenge MT. Drennen to meet him in joint debate and discuss the issues now before the people of Birmingham.
