Bueksport's Steam Ferry.

The steam-ferry Joseph G. Totten is once
more IN commission, the river now being
free from ice. She was delayed somewhat
by the non-arrival of the French plate mir
rols for the ladies' cabin and by slight ac-
cident to the steam steering gear. The
famous boat is more speedy than ever since
receiving her Tobin bronze ! lating. The
battery on the orlop deck during the recent
ar will remain in position by special per-
nit but the ram and torpedo tube will be re-
moved. Capt. Alfred Wardwell will be the
chief executive officer while Ed .Sinnett will
look after the triple expansion engines The
owners stateroom will be re-gilded and re-
furnished to place at the disposal of Admir-
al Dewey. General Miles or any of those Eel
lows who are expected this summer to visit
Totten is wonderful boat-nothing like it

MT. K. II. Thomas

If there is a business which tests a mans character and ability more than any other, it is the real estate business. A real es- tate agents business is necessarily of confidential nature, and upon his advice and Judgment his client must rely, to great extent To be in the real estate business in one city for fourteen years, to have ones business constantly increase, and to number among ones patrons a great num- Der of Birmingham's wealthest and best posted men, is a proud record. Such is the record of R. H. Thomas, 2O4 North Twen- tieth street. MT. Thomas has handled some very large real estate deals and mas always managed to satisfy both buyer and seller His familiarity with all property in and around Birmingham, his keen insight as to future improvements and stralght- forward frank manner have contributed no little to his success His long experience in this line enables him to be thoroughly posted as to the value of all property in and around Birmingham, and his sound business judgment is greatly valued by real estate dealers.

the waves would be apt to get tangled up with one another. And as a consequence the volume of business that might be car ried would be limited to the ability to send and to receive of one sender and of one receiver. But increase this ability by application of the Wheatstone principle, and there is a valuable and great expan- sion of the capabilities of the single pair of instruments.
 The tape may be written automatically by the old style receiver in the main office as the message is sent from the city branch office, so it can at once be run automatical- ly through the Wheatstone sender and be received automatically at the other end of the trunk wave, which with the use of the Marconi reflector of curved sheet tin, may generally be directed whither the operator desires.
 There is a hint that Lieutenant Squier is about to make experiment with the elec- tric searchlight in connection with wire less telegraphy, in the hope that the ether wave may be concentrated and whirled off in a more direct and controllable manner, with lessened possibility of contact with the earth, which grabs up electric currents in very disheartening manner.
 The Marconi reflector spreads out the wave while giving it general direction. The searchlight sends little rigs of elec- tric particles straight at the point toward which the instrument is sighted. That is, this is .he theory on which experiment will be based.

TOM CASON'S PLACE
The Best Liquors and Wines, and Fresh
 est and Coldest Beer

One of the most popular places of its kind in Birmingham is the saloon of MT. T. E. Cason, 1877 Second avenue. Tom Cason, as he is famlliarly known, is famous in two respects. First, for the excellent quail ty of the goods he sells, and second for the unique and catchy manner in which he advertises his business. Tom Cason's ad- vertising cards arc frequently seen in the possession of people in cities hundreds of miles from Birmingham. He long since es- tablished a reputation for handling only the purest beverages and keeping an orderly house. and that he will maintain that rep utation goes without saying. He conducts his business, sells at reasonable prices and has a large patronage. He employs none but courteous and competent mixologists, to which is due largely the prosperity of his saloon.
 If you want straight goods,' or want to visit resort where you will be accorded every consideration to which a gentleman is entitled, go to Tom Cason's. ""*
