On the one hand there is the very posi-
tive assertion that even with the recent
cut OF 10 cents on every 100 pounds Of re
fined sugar the margin OF profit is much
larger than il was few months ago. On
The other hand il is asserted that the trust
is losing cents on every 100 pounds II
produces. 1t is somewhat against the cred
ibility OF the latter statement however,
tha5 II is made by the same people that
said the trust was losing cents week
or more before this last reduction Of 10
cents was made. Very evidently IL the

the insiders who presumably sold out
their stock several months ago before the
dividend reduction was mentioned publicly

Joseph Jefferson

Already Joseph Jefferson has encompassed the span of life, which the ancient man of wisdom and authority named as the allotted period of human existence. But he deiies the decaying influences of time, and his acting does not grow less.
 He comes to the Jefferson theatre on next Tuesday for one night
 Will he appear in any new characters while he is here, some one may ask No; he will not. and 1t is extremely improbable that he will even undertake to "ereate'-that is the term which actors like. and audiences understand when new parts are mentioned
 Indeed, there does not seem to be any desire on the part of the public for him to identify himself with new work.
 His Rip Van Wrinkle" and Bob Acres have become institutions of the playhouse, and the theatres in which he appears dur ing his short tours. are seldom large enough to hold the throngs who visit them on these occasions.
 "The Rivais' is the play chosen for this engagement. The demand for seats Is un- usually large.

WORK OF THE MEAT
 AND MILK INSPECTORS
Cows Found Free of Tuberculosis in Two Dairies-Small Per Centage of
 Meat Condemned.

". B. Fleming, chief inspector of meat and milk, and his assistants, have had a busy month. The work of milk inspection was not begun until last Monday, owing to the non-arrival of the necessary apparatus. but great deal of meat has been examined since the inauguration of the system. It was found necessary to reject some, but the percentage was small.
 During the week past MT Fleming in- spected two dairies-Drake's, 32 cows, and NIims, 16 cows, and in each case he found the COWS free from tuberculosis. He will begin the inspection of Mays dairy tomor- row. It-requires two days for the work of Inspecting an ordinary dairy. A very large dairy would require at least four days, for only d limited number of cows can be eX- amined the same day.

SENATOR PULLMAN
 COMES APRIL 9TH Formal Invitation Extended by n. < DiSpensary Advocates TO SPEAK AT AUDITORIUM Will Confine Himself to a Discussion of the System in South Carolina and
 It's Workings-To Create
 Public Sentiment

United States Senator Benjamin R. Till man of South Carolina is to address a public meeting at the Auditorium in this city in advocacy of the dispensary system Monday night, April g. He comes under the auspices of the friends of the dspen- sary movement, who organized in the Young Mems Christian association parlors several weeks ago. the leaders in the movement being Vassar L. Allen J. E. Wilson. James E. Webb Frank Leslie, John ". Sioley, Arle Barber and the Rev. S. P. West.
 Mr. Sibley and Mr. Barber are chairman and secretary, respectively, of the eXeca- tive committee. Early in the week they sent a formal invitation to Mr. Tillman, sugges ting April a desirable date, but leaving it to him to fix a date that would most suit his convenience. The senator, in acknowledgment of the communication, wrote to MT Sjbey saying that he could not be absent from Washington on the Sd, but that he could be in Birmingham on the 9th. He asked Mir S3oley, in the event the 9th be date agreeable to the committee. to notify him by wire or mail. On yesterday Mir slbley telegraphed him to come at that time.
 Senator Tilman will confine his discus sion to the dispensary question. He is to explain particularly the operation of the system in South Carolina.
 Said one of the advocates of the dispen- sary for Jefferson county yesterday:
 While we are to have no opportunity of voting on this issue during the political campaign now on and may not have an opportunity of giving expression to our views at the polls for some time to come, we will agitate right along and create pub lie sentiment for our side We think Till mans speech will help us very much"
