PUBLIC HUGGING.
Washington Woman Says sThere
Is Too rIuch of 1t in That City.

a lady living on Columbia Heights,
Washington, d. c., and who evidently
intends to do all she can towards stop
ping public and promiscuous hugging
at the national capital, has written the
district commissioners a letter in
which she earnestly their atten-
tion to the matter and begs that law
be enacted prohibiting such exhibit
tions. She says that the habit as young
men and girls hugging in the street
cars, in theatres and public parks has
grown to such an extent that it will
corrupt the rising generations. She
declares that it is almost impossible to
take car ride to any of the suburban
resorts without seeing some young
man trying to see how close he can
hold his girl in his arms or how near
to his lap she can sit.
''Such conduct if condoned and toll
Grated will cause sorrow to come to the
hearts of many mothers" says the
writer, "and don't wcnder that the
Chinese minister, Mr.. WI, was shock
ed when he saw young men embracing
girls on the hay ride at Cape May
"Such conduct, among what we con-
slider our better class of society should
be frowned upon. Had Minister WI
taken a ride on any of our steet cars
after nightfall he would have witnessed
equally as immoral sights right here
in Washington"
In closing her letter the lady begs
that the district commissioners give
the matter earnest consideration, and
says that law prohibiting such con-
duct in street cars is far more IMPORT
ant than the law prohibiting expecto-
rating in cars that the latter can only
soil the skirts of ladies, while the for
mer can lead to the ruin of souls.

HOWARD CASE IS
 NEARING AN END
Arguments Will be Concluded Today-Strong Appeal for
 the Accused Man.

Frankfort, Ky, September A-The argu- ment to the jury in the case of Jim How ard, charged with being principal in the murder of William Goebel, began this after noon and will conclude tomorrow morning. Carlo Little opened the argument for the defense. He argued that the testimony Of Culton and other self-confessed consplra- tors was unworthy of belief and that the word of Howard himself should go further with the jury as he claimed to be inno- cent and the State having failed to prove him guilty. In addressing the jury Little referred to Goebel at all times as "Gov- ernor Goeber In the most respectful man. ner and condemned the murder in the most vigorous language, but appealed to the jury to be sure not to punish an innocent man. He said he did not doubt the shot was fired from the Secretary of States office, but there was no proof that Howard was in there.

PRODUCE MARKET WANTS CHICKENS Good Stocks of Most Lines of Vegetables s-Apples
 Plentiful.

Birmingham's wholesale produce market was very active yesterday
 Eggs were scarce and in brisk demand' the common run bringing 16c and choice eggs 17c.
 Chickens were also scarce, and in strong demand. Good friers sold readily at 5c, and mediums at 20c. A prominent merchant re- marked. that he did not believe chickens would be any lower this fall.
 Morris avenue was well stocked with most lines of fruits and vegetables. Five car loads of Virginia cabbage arrived yester- day. This was a large lot for one day, but it did not overstock the market nor affect the quotation, l1ac per pound, which has been standing for several weeks past.
 Choice New York apples are being re- ceived steadily. A carload came yesterday. The price for these apples range from B to $3.25 per barrel.

A dispatch from Santa Fe New Mexico revives
the rumOr that the Santa Fe will build "cut-off" in
order to shorten its line to the Pacific coast. The
dispatch reads:
'lt Is asserted here that the Santa Fe will ex.
tendits road from Amarillo Texas, to Albuquerque,
across Guadalupe, San Miguel, southern Santa Fe
and BernahllO counties, cutting off the difficult
grades of the Ration pass and of northern New Mex
lco for its through trains from Chicago and Kansas
City, thus shortening its line to Los Angeles and
San Francisco by several hundred miles.
"The Denver d Rio Grande has an engineering
corps out surveying for an extension to Albu.
querque and White Oaks there to connect with the
Ell Paso d Northeastern railroad for Ell Paso The
first extension will be 20 miles to Bland, by way of
White Rock canon A site for bridge to cross the
Rio Grande directly west of Santa Fe has been Sc.
ected and the contract has been let for $4,000 ties to
be delivered at Espanola in May President Jefery
has long favored tapping the Cochit district but
until now the foreign bOndhOlders of the Denver tS

they have now yielded to the demand for the road.
"The agreement which existed between the Rio
Grande and the Santa Fe railroad companies by
which both agreed to remain on one side of the
Sangre Christie and Santa Fe range expired April
and was not signed again. This will result in the
Santa Fe Railroad company building its projected

Of stealing him from Miami, but
he is TOO well established at

said more good things in private con.

considered; that if he intended leav-

he would rather locate than in Sum-
ner county. He has been around
enough, and his powers of observation
are such as to give special Importance
to the remark. "YOu have the great

said, sin the United States. | talk
