Temple. Texas. January lSWhile work
ing on the Santa PC reservoir being built
Just west Of town, some Norkmen yester-
day found metallic ore In the bed OF Birds
creek that TO all appearances contains
copper and lead. II l. not altogether i'm
probable that valuable deposits may he
found in the course OF the building of the
Santa nc reservoir or lake. as it will cover
something like 100 acres, including a good
portion of the bed OF the creek.
Discussion of the finding OF the ore
brought up a story from the relatives o.
men who rode with General Sui Ross in
chasing Indians through this section. The
story is that a party in hot pursuit Of
some indians one day stopped to water
their horses at one of the various little
creeks hereabouts, and one of the party
picked UP couple OF nuggets which af-
forwards proved to be almost pure silver.
The Indian trail was so hot that further
pyestig cation was impossible then. but af-
TOR the Indians had been given good
druhbing In Bosque county the party re-
turned TO Waco and their homes The
finder of the nuggets sent them on to
Washington to have them assayed and had
a finger ring made from the ere. After
wards the creek was searched for by mem
bers of the party but for lack of land
marks in those days and the similarity IF
the many little creeks cutting through the
praires. the exact location was never
made. Perhaps rich find is yet TO come

The Birmingham Seminary


 There is no school in the South so favor ably situated and successfully directed as the Birmingham Seminary. Though it has butt just completed its third season, 1t has proven fits claims to a first rank among institutions of learning. Based upon merit, 1t has buifded for itself a name and fame to be envied by the oldest of It's sister col leges.
 Founded by two scholarly women, of wide experience, the Seminary has lived up to the motto chosen for it by the senior class of the first year: Onward, Upward, Never Backward
 Miss Compton and Miss Morton, the principals, had been many years associated together in teaching. when the need for a select, well directed private school attract ed them to Birmingham Miss Compton was educated in Nashville, Tenn, under two of the most thorough educators of that classic city. When Dr. Blackie and Miss Fannie O'Brien, In their acadamie, out of which Prices College evolved, graduated girl with honors, or masters degree she was compelled to have been a close, diligent student for at least dozen years. Under their tuition Miss Compton attained to 8 masters degree, and learned to steer the course of young women throughout the en- tire realm of a complete education. Miss Morton ably assists her, and shares all re- responsibilities; and, besides the direetorship of the music department and the instruction oi hSNCl lcSS tudl t1u ly pldllO pupl1S, uOe5 all of the secretary's work for both the school and faculty.
 The mental moral, physical and social training of girls in the Seminary is ideal, as is shown by the superior places held by her alumnae professionally and socially. Having started tine first session with a matrieulatfon of eighty-five pupils, this last session shows enrolment of three hundred and thrty-seven. However large the matriculation may become, no class has ever been allowed to number over twenty; for enough teachers are secured to divide the classes when they exceed this number; as one great purpose of the school is to give Individual attention to every pupil
 The faculty is composed of experienced teachers, each one having made lifelong preparation for her profession, and taught successfully in established schools or col- leges.
 The curriculum is equal to that of any school in the South. College preparatory work is made speciality as also elective courses to those not physically able to take the full course
 The home and school ara both fully equipped for the best results in all depart ments, and prospects are for an overfowing school next session. Wednesday,, Septem- Der the twelft.s will be the opening day of the new school year.

A LIGHTED MATCH TOUCHED CLOTHES And Started Fire in the Resi- dence of Geo. H. Estes
 Last Night.

The residence of George H. Estes in Tenth avenue, between Eighteenth and Nineteenth streets, South, was threatened with destruction by fire last night, but the timely application of a few buckets of water extinguished the flames before any serious damage had been done.
 Between and o'clock the small son of MT. Estes went upstairs for some purpose and struck a match to light his way. The match came in contact with some clothes which caught fire from it. The little fell low scramed as soon as he discovered the coIthes on fire and MT. Estes ran to his assistance.
 The alarm was turned in and both the Southsfde and Highland departments re- sponded but the flames had been stopped before their arrival.
 Some clothing. curtains and few other articles were burned, but aside from that little damage was done.

IN MADISON
Grand Democratic Rally in Court House
 at Huntsville

Huntsville, August 4.-(Special) )-The county campaign closed here tonight with Democratic rally at the court house. The Republicans have been making a strong light for county officers. John M Oldfeld Of Hazfe Green, for Sheriff; Jere Murphy, Jr, and J. W. Roberts, for the Legislature, have made close canvass of the county and they make extravagant claims. It is practically certain however, that the Dem ocrtaic ticket win secure the accustomed nlaJouty.
 Judge Richardson, Democratic nominee Tor Congress to succeed General Wheeler Is practically unopposed and will carry nearly every precinct in all the counties Of the district. He finished a close canvass ot Lawrence County, where the Republi- cans have always had majority, today, ana 1t is believed this county will return Democratic majority Monday.
 Judge John Steele, Republican nominee Tor Governor, has had no time to canvass the State, but his supporters in all parts of Alabama have been very busy during the past -Four weeks. Their fight has been on national issues and they claim to have a hshting chance to win in the State.

CAUGHT THE WORM
That Gnaws Under Cover

have had quite an experience with the use Of coffee. Without knowing why. I gradually became seriously constfpated. With all the disagreeable effects of this most ag9ravating disease. I was also bilious and stomach badly out of order.
 T had no idea of the cause and kent using eoffee every morning.
 "One day a friend to whom I spoke of my troubles, remarked that perhaps would find the cause in the coffee cup and suggested the use of Postum Cereal Food Conee. l was impressed with his remarks and made the change from coffee to Pos- tum The old troubles have nearly disap- peared and I am one of the happiest mor- tals you ever saw. I have pro. ed to my entire satisfaction that coffee was the un- suspected cause of the difficulty and while it nearly ruined my health for a time, have practically recovered again by the dis continuance of coffee.
 "I have known number of persons who have been driven away from Postum be- cause it came to the table weak and >characteriess. It simply was not made right, and it would be the same with any other kind of drink, tea, coffee, cocoa, etc. Postunl, when made according to direc- tions, Is delightful beverage.
 There are a large number of people in this surrounding country who are using Postum, and their nur1ber is increasing daily. It is sort of a stampede Store after store is putting in stock of Postuni that never thought of such thing before.
 'I enclose a list of twenty or thirty names of those that know of as users of I'ostum, among my immediate .acquaint- ances. Do not use my name, please. "- J. M. G., Box 72, Jefferson. Wis.

WON SUCCESS BY
 GENUINE MERIT
0ad the Real Estate and Insurance Firm of ". N. Malone
 Company.

' srNo, I do not think there will be any vacant dwellings in this city after October l. There are none now of consequence, and the many enquiries we receive daily by persons seeking homes for the new rental year Is evidence of the fact that the popu- tation of Birmingham is growing beyond the dwelling room. However, we have on our list number of homes and business houses to be let before the first of October We could place as many more." Thus spoke MT. W. N. Malone, the senior mem- Der of the real estate and insurance house Of ". N. Malone & Co. at 2O17 First ave- tftie. No firm in the city is better authority 6a the subect of Birmingham's growth than this one. MT. Malone Is ever proni- uent in all movements that look for the advancement of the material interests of Birmingham. He Is ever publfc-sp spirited, fully alive and wide-awake and has a most capable and far-seeing ee-lahorer in the person of MT. J. T. Haas, the junior member of the firm.
 No individual business firm here has done more vigorous and successful work in Inducing manufacturing and other pro- dpcttve enterprises to locate in Blrming- ham than has the firm of w. N. Malone 6 Co. They realize the fact that these are the real estate builders, and supporters of the community, and that without them many houses would be tenantless and Bir- Iningham could not grow; hence their con- stant efforts to show to prospectors the great inducements offered here- The firm ranks as very high authority on the subject of mineral lands and in this line does an immense business. w. N. Malone & Go. enjoy an immense patronage as real estate agents, and this patronage was secured and Is held by their strict and prompt Attention to business and by honorable and fair dealing toward landlord and ten- ant. Their rental list of both business and residence property Is always large and ever increasing; and if there is activity in the real estate market this firm is always prominent in the movements. This firm has sold within the past twelve months over $250,000 worth of real estate.
 | Their insurance department is one of the largest agencies in the South, representing, as they do, the following companies: Ma ry1and Casualty Company, London and Lancashire, Phoenix of London, Caledo- nian of Scotland, Manchester of England, New York Underwriters, Southern Insur- ance Company, and German American - Fire, Personal Accident, Steam Boiler, Plate Glass, Employers Liability and Workmens Collecting Insurance.
 The firm occupies handsome ground floor offices at 2017 First avenue, and always welcomes visitors, especially those desiring Information as to Birmingham.
