working Willie Bryan up to the omis-

MIR. WOOD
Makes Statement in Connection With
 Examiner Cowan's Report

Discussing the report of State Examiner Cowan on the condition of his book, which Showed a balance of $235 due the state, Sterling A. Wood, former clerk of the su- preme court, stated yesterday that he felt under obligations to MT. Cowan for his exhaustive and painstaking work, which has lasted some months, and was glad to be examined now or at any other time; but confessed his surprise at the report having been filed before he had answered the same. He said that before his term of office had expired he had requested that the office be examined, and that the su- preme court did examine the same, through a committee, consisting of Hon. John w. "A. Sanford, Hon. W. c. Bibb and Hon. Alexander Troy, and that their report, which was very complimentary to his ad- mnistration of the office, was ordered to be put upon the minutes of the court, where 1t could be found. He further states that he had not seen the report which MT. Cowan had filed, which was his second ex- animation of the office, the first having shown items in his favor, and that as soon as he had examined and checked the same as to each of the exceedingly numerous small items, extending from 1892 to 1896, in- elusive, he would pay to or collect from the state the balance due, if any existed.

days, proposition to remove one of the largest plants in the south to Birmingham This company will manufacture all kinds of agriculture implements, and in addition Ice machinery, sash, doors and blinds, and Will also erect foundry and machine shop, with capital of s3O0,O00, giving work to some $50 men.
 All the above mentioned plants will be built with foreign capital, no local capital being asked for, and their coming here brings some of the best and strongest busi- ness men that can be found anywhere which will be an inducement for others to follow.
 1.-The past twelve months has been one of the most successful years in the his tory of the club, having brought indus tries to this city whose aggregate capital amounts to over one million dollars, and giving employment to over one thousand men, thereby stimulating trade of every character. and scattering money through every avenue of business.
 Railroads, furnaces, machine and foun- dry shops lumber men, brick manufac- turers. merchants. banks in fact every character of business has been stimulated and employment given to hundreds of peo- pie, contractors, carpenters, brick-layers and mechanics of all kinds, as we'll as numbers of machlnists even the real es- tate and insurance men have been bene- fited by the introduction of new industries in our midst.
 This being the annual meeting it was the purpose of your committee to make a full and detailed report of the entire work ings of the club since it's organization, but for lack of time we were unable to do so Respectfully submitted,
 "W. N. MALONE. "Chairman of Mining and Manufacturing
 Committee"
 The report was ordered filed.
 Judge J. J. Banks submitted the report of the committee appointed at the March meeting of the club to investigate the water supply and fire protection of Birmingham, which showed a careful investigation of the question, the only conclusion being reached was that the fire department was inadeuuate to the needs of the city.
 On motion of Major John W. Johnston the report was ordered filed and the secretary was instructed to furnish the mayor and board of aldermen of the city with copy.
 Spanish Gun
 Sterling A. Wood of the committee ap- pointed to secure a Spanish gun for Bir- mingham reported as follows:
 "To the Commercial Club: The committee on procuring a Spanish gun, which was raised upon the recommendation of Presi- de mt F. Y Anderson, in his report to the club at it's meeting in February last, beg leave to report:
 That the committee, immediately upon it's appointment communicated with Hon. o. w. Underwood, our congressman from this district, and through his exertions has procured the loan to the city of Birming- ham of one 57-millimeter gun, taken from the Cristobal Colon.
 That while this Is denominated 'loan,' it is in reality a gift, as the gun will, in all human probability, never be recalled. In order to have 1t an absolute gift, it would have been necessary to pass special act Of congress, which would have been the

preaching Allen is claimed to have been a knife, but a vigorous search failed to bring such a weapon to light.
 The weapon which Allen used was an Iver-Johnston, 32-caibre pistol and when taken In charge by the police contained four exploded shells.
 Acted in self-Defense
 When an interview was sought with AL len he refused to make any statement ex- cept that he acted in self-defense, and re- ferred the reporter to his attorney, B. M. Allen, who stated that McFetridge was ap- preaching his client with an open knife and that the shots were fired in self-de- fense.
 Dr. Whelan. who attended McFetridge. pronounced the wounds as very danger ous, especially the wound in the neck. Neither of bullets were located, and a mes sage from the hospital at 2:30 o'clock this morning was to the effect that the wound ed man was very weak and was sinking rapidly
 Allen was until recently employed as an engineer at Ensley, and first met McFet- ridge and his wife In the later place, where they are said to have been employed in one of the literary clubs" otherwise known as blind tigers.
 Mrs. McFetridge admitted that she had been employed as a "jollier" in place of that character, but denies that her rela- tions with Allen or any other man were other than proper. She says that her hus- band is insanely jealous and had spoken to her of Allen, who had called several times in a social way.
 McFetridge and his wife came to Bir- mingham with the Midway people during the State Fair, and hail from Cincinnati. McFetridge, as stated above, was shot during a brawl in the German village. and was confined to the hospital for some time, and since his recovery has been engaged at several different methods of earning a livelihood.

Unhappily there was statement in the the AgeHeralds account yesterday of the seventh district republican convention at Cullman to the effect that Mir. Frank Mo- ragne, who was chosen district chairman, was in prison at Montgomery. MT. Mo- ragne was for a time imprisoned on a charge of being concerned in shooting affair; but he was several days ago al- lowed bail, which he promtply gave, and was released. He was at the Cullman con- vention in person.
 The regular convention selected Hon. Frank 1T. Lathrop of Riverside and John T. Ezell of Russellville delegates to the national republican convention Another convention, it appears, selected c. F. Sneed of Boaz and R. B. Thompson of Cullman as delegates to the national con- vention.

woman's Left Approach.



Watch any place where there are doors
on the right for going in and doors on the
left for coming out and see how many
women go to the left-hand door to get in.
Watch any crowded sidewalk in the retail
shopping regions and notice how many
women turn TO the left when they meet
you, instead of TO the right. These phe-
nomena suggest an inductive suspicion that
women are mostly left-handed. This theory
has the scientific advantage of explaining
several mysterious facts. For all her brief
years the new woman has been protesting
against the degradation to which the sex is
put when one of its number says, Its all
right, just because 1 am a woman" Yet IL
is a perfectly natural concomitant of this
doctrine that regards women as at liberty
TO provoke profanity by indorsing checks at
the wrong end, turning TO the left when
they ought to go to the right, and rushing
in ahead of a whole row OF men who are
patiently waiting their turn in line to buy
tickets or stamps TO the right OF a window.
Just why women perpetrate this last afro
city has often puzzled scientific student
of the species. II Is because women are
l~eft-handed and think the line ought 10
approach the window from the left; If the
men are wrong. IL is the mems fault.
