Good looks are really more than skin
deep, depending entirely on healthy
condition of all the vital organs. If the
liver be inactive, you have bilious look ;
if your stomach be disordered, you have
dyspeptic look; if your kidneys be af-
fected you have a pinched look. Secure
good health and you will surely have good
looks. Electric Bitters' is a good alter
alive and tonic. Acts directly on the
stomach, liver and kidneys. Purifies the
blood, cures pimples, blotches and boils,
and gives a good complexion. Every bot

EXCELLENT WORK BY
POLICE YESTERDAY
Three Pickpockets and One SwindIer Taken
to City Jail-SeveraI Private De-
tectives on Duty

With the assistance of the twenty addi-
tional officers the Birmingham police force
did some excellent work yesterday The
streets We're packed all day with a SURG
ing crowd. but all unpleasantness was
avoided by the timely action of the patrol
men, There were several private detectives
at work, and during the day three pick
pockets were landed in the city jail. When
an arrest was made the arresing officer
would slip his man to a brother policeman
and he would be escorted to the station
house without the bystanders being any
the wiser.
The men charged with larceny from the
person are Sidney Amory, C. A. Thompson
and Henry Williams. One of these men was
seen to run his hand in the pocket of Mr.
Hardy in front of the Morris hotel yester-
day morning and a large red pocket book
fell to the pavement. Three detectives
were standing near and the man was nab
bed before he had time to move. He was
turned over to Captain Weir and now oc-
cupies a cell in the police station.
Though the streets were crowded with
fakrs shouting the merits of their various
wares. only one man was arrested for
swindling. This was c. A. Thompson, a
young man about Is years of age. The
young man was exhibiting an apparatus by
which diminutive post could be struck
with the hand and an arrow would register
certain height on an elevated scale. The
price of strike was ten cents. II the ar
row landed at certain numbers the striker
drew a prize. officers Burke, Dsheroon,
Walton and Bodeker took careful survey
of the scheme and discovered that the ma
chine could be turned one way and the
arrow would register at prize numbers.
When changed it failed to register. In 9TH
er words the manipulation could let the
striker win or not as he saw fit. He was
arrested on a charge of swindling and will
have to explain the intricacies of his game
to Judge Feagin this morning.

KILLED NEAR THE
CIRCUS GROUNDS
A Supposed Negro Pickpocket
Comes to Sudden End.
BODY FOUND BY OFFICERS
Two White Men Supposed to Have Done
Shooting, But Their Identity
Has Not Yet Been AS
certained.

Andy Stiles, supposed negro piekpoeket,
WIS shot and killed near the circus grounds
at 10 O'Clock last night.
TIL body Was found by Officers Pat
ton and Cunningham and three bullet holes
had penetrated the chest. While search
ing the dead nsgro's body the officers found
a loaded revolver and a watch which had
evidently been stolen. The ring ito which
the chain mad been attach was consider
ably oeIrt and the winding stem had been
twisted as il the watch had been jerlSed
from some where with a pair of plyers.
Two negroes Tom Adams and Wiley
Jones, claim to have witnessed the shoot
ing. They say that the negro had been
standing in the shade of tree not far
from the A. G. S. shops, as il waiting for
walked close to Stiles before they saw him.
The negro sDrang from the tree and line
white men asked him what ne was doing
there, Whereupon the negro drew a wea-
pom and started towards them. Three shots
were fired and the negro iell to the ground
BY the time the officers reached him he
Was dead. In the revolver found on his
person were five cartridges, one of which
mad been snapped. THIS is regarded as a
corroboration Of the two negroes state
ment.
The names of the two white men who are
supposed to have done the shooting have
not yet been ascertaiued.

SWINDLING SCHEME
Power Denounces Volunteers Plan to
Obtain Bounty

Jackson, Miss, Novnber 6-Regarding
the story sent out from Chicago that some
800 former members of the Second and
Third Mississippi regiments who enlisted
from that city have organized for the pur-
pose of making legal fight to obtain a
bounty of $50 each, supposed to be granted
to every soldier who recruits in a MISSISSIPPI
ri regiment and who is not a resident of
the state, Secretary of State Power this
afternoon made the announcement that
there is no such statute in existence, and
that Mississippi never paid soldier bounty,
even to athe members of her militia. He
denounces the attempt as a swindling
scheme, devised by the firm of attorneys
for the purpose of getting 50 fee from the
former Chicago members of the Mississippi
regiments.
There is yet due to members of the Mis-
sissippi regiments from the government
three months extra pay authorized by act
of congress, and regular pay from the time
of arrival in camp until date of muster in
the service, but these claims are now going
through the regular course at the war de-
partment and will be paid when recorded.

on the platforms. The prettiest of these
was the rescue of Cuba from the iron rule
OF Spain.
AS a matter of course the clowns were
out in full force, and kept the crowd roar
ing with laughter from start to finish.
The turns of the aerobats and equilibrists
were so clever that special mention of any
individual is almost impossible.
The performance of the trained horses
under Professor O'Brien was excellent.
With the trainer on handsome steed
standing on the top of a pyramid, sixty-one
horses mounted the steps and presented
most novel and pleasing sight.
The trained elephants of Professor Lock-
hart gave the cleverest exhibition of brute
intelligence ever seen in this city. The
beasts could do anything from walking
erect standing on their hind legs to blowing
a trombone in a brass band.
The DeComer family of acrobats also
elected considerable applause.
The concert was superior to those usually
seen at circuses and was we'll received.
AS a whole the performances yesterday
afternoon and last night were excellent and
free from coarseness. The enormous crowd
was handled with perfect east and not
hitch appeared in the programme.
