SEASONABLE HINTS
Guard Your Health in Fall and Early
Winter

A change from warm to cold is always at
tended with more danger than from cold
to a warm temperature, hence the greater
mortality from lung and throat diseases at
this season of the year as compared with
spring
The best protection against colds Is not so
much in extra clothing as in good digestion.
If the digestion and circulation are good,
colds will be unknown.
Poor digestion causes poor circulation or
the blood and when in this condition severe
colds are contracted on the slightest provo
cation.
People who make a regular practice on
taking Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after
meals are free from colds, simply because
their digestion is perfect, the heart strong
and regular, and the whole system fortified
against disease.
1t requires little argument to convince
anyone that the best safeguards against
colds pneumonia and changes OF tempera-
ture is good stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken after
meals are dissolved and mingling with the
food cause it to be promptly digested and
assimilated; they do this because they con-
tain nothing but harmless digestive ele-
ments, which digest meat, eggs and other
food even when the stomach itself is weak
and faced.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets make people
well and keep them well, and the best habit
Won can acquire is to make daily use or
them at meals to keep the digestive organs
strong and vigorous.

THE PISTOL WENT
OFF ACCIDENTALLY
Same Old Fatal Story of Two
Careless Boys.
L0NACE MASSEY Is DEAD
Colored Employees of Big Pipe Works
Are Out on Another Strike -Pro-
bable That They May Quit
Work Once Too Often

Bessemer, November H.-(Special.) YES
terday afternoon Lonace Massey, a boy
seventeen years of age, was shot by
companion by the name of Crotwell and so
seriously wounded that death followed to-
day about II o'clock
The two boys were examining a pistol
which accidently went off while in the
hands of Crotwell, striking young Massey
in the abdomen.
The accident occurred at the home of the
latter on Shades creek, about three miles
southeast of, this city. Physicians were
summoned from Bessemer last night, and
today DIR. E. NJ Robinson came down from
Birmingham for the purpose of removing
the ball, but saw that the boy could not
survive an operation.
Deceased was the son of widowed
mother.
The colored employees of the big pipe
works, who went out on strike yesterday,
did not return to work today. They had
every appearance of intending to go to
work yesterday, but suddenly dropped their
tools. gave a yell and quit. The cause of
the disaffection was the discharge of one
of their number, a prominent union man.
This is the second strike at the works
within the past few weeks, and the general
opinion is that the man may strike once
too often. Though not inclined to shut
down, it is well known that there is no
special rush of work on hand at present. -

town today and has opened up the bakery

corner of Second avenue and Twentieth
street With his daughter, Miss Delaney,

dence in Fifth avenue and will be Joined

and StaIIings.
SHOULD Be NO HESITATION
President of Democratic Bimetallic Club
ofMontgomery County Gives Their
Records and Shows Jeffer-
son Mans Faithfulness
SHOULD Be NO HESITATION

Montgomery, November 13.-(Special.)-
The Age-Herald representative today call
ed on the Hon. Gordon Macdonald, presi-
dent of the Democratic Bimetallic club of
Montgomery county, and asked his views as
a prominent bimetallist ON the gubernato-
rial race. In reply Mr.. Macdonald said:
at would be venturesome indeed to at
tempt, at this time, to forecast the nomi-
nee of convention to be held six months
hence 1 will not attempt to do so. I am,
however, deeply interested in the situation
now presented to the people of Alabama, as
it illustrates an unusual and peculiar con-
dition of affairs. The public press has, at
different times, contained the announce
ments of six gentlemen as candidates for
governor, and it may be that other an
nouncements are yet to come. The situa-
ton is peculiar in this, that two counties,
viz: Marshall and Jackson, hold their pri-
maries for state officers in December-con-
siderably In advance of the other counties
in the state-and yet, in these two counties
the canvass has hitherto been made only
by Mr.. Tomlinson and Mr. Stalllngs, ana
hence it is probable that the voters there
will make their selection between one OF
these two aspirants.
TomIinson Logical Candidate
at seems to me that no genuine olmetal-
list who will reflect on late political MS
tory and the public acts and words OF THESE
two men will hesitate long between rhem.
OF the two Mr.. Tomlinson is the only losl-
cal candidate for true btmetalhsts and SIN
cere supporters of the Chicago platform and
Mr.. Bryan. Ever since the adoption of that
platform and the selection OF Mr.. Bryan
as its chief exponent, every scheme-irom
open revolt to the more insidious and dam
gerous attacks from Within THE party by
some of its alleged leaders-has been re-
sorted to to weaken 1.-THE candidate and de-
stroy or emasculate the platform. The fact
that the platform declared for the free and
unlimited coinage of silver, was at once ap-
preciaited as the only really dangerous at
tack on monopoly and the money power.
Ever since, and from time to time, une
leaders off democracy have been carried up
on high mountains, or in secret places,
and have been tempted of the money
devil.
81 need not say how many have fallen
to the enemy or how many have become
far worse, viz: lukewarm political latl-
tudin arians, with a tendency to s1dle to-
ward the golden calf and burn incense at
its altar. All men will recollect how, last
spring, a certain seemingly organized moves
ment began in the east, and letters and in
terviewS were published wherein men, high
among the leaders of democracy, made sug-
gestions more or less vague. that, in GER
tain contingencies, the Chicago platform
might be discarded, and Mr.. Bryan rele-
gated to obscurity.

Were Not Claimed

Madrid, November 14.-In the Spanish sem
ate today Senior Montero Rios, replying to
Count Almenas, who. recently declared that
owing to the ignorance of the Spanish
American peace treaty commissioners three
Islands of the Philippines, the two Batta-
nos and Calayan island. both north of Luz
zon, were not included in the scope of
the treaty, said the islands referred to were
not ceded because they belonged to Japan
and were not claimed by the Americans.
Senior Rios urged the premier, Senior Gil
vela to demand a fulfillment by the Ameri-
cans of their engagements under the treaty
providing for commercial advantages to
Spain in the Philippines. Senior Silvela re-
piled that difficulty had arisen in the execu-
ton of those stipulations in the treaty,
doubtless because the Americans had not
yet fully established their sway in the Phil
ippines.
