Has Doubled in the Last Twenty Years.
ALABAMA STANDS FOURTH
The Location, Character of Opening ssa. Number of Employees and Output of All the Mines in the
 State in 1899

Alabama stands fourth among the coal producing states of the Union, and if the present rate of development in that line continues few years longer, she will take her place next to Pennsylvania.
 In 1899 the output of the mines in the State approximated seven and a half mill lion tons, and the State mine inspector estimates that 1t will be not less than nine million this year. The output the first six months of the year was over four and a half million.
 The development of the coal industry in Alabama has been nothing short of remark able when the fact is taken into consider ation that twenty years ago the total pro- duction of the State was mere bagatelle compared with that of the present year. Ten years ago it Was only a little more than half of last years production
 The location kind of opening, number Of employees and output of the different mines in the State in 1899 are given in the fol- lowing table:

PEOPLES SAVINGS
 BANK & TRUST GO. An Institution Where Thousands
 Do Business. ITS PHENOMENAL GROWTH One of the City's Leading Banking Houses Under the Management of Able and Progressive Off,
 cers-Many Deposltors

Appropriate indeed is the name of the Peoples Savings Bank and Trust Com pany, which for many years has been To- cated in Second avenue
 The management of. this bank has all ways made 1t point to see that everyone who called there was treated with such politeness and attention that they would come again, and the result is today that the Peoples Savings Bank is truly peo- ple's institution, and has probably more individual depositors than any other bank in the state, the number reaching three thousand.
 When MT. Henry B. Gray, the president took charge of the Peoples Savings Bank five years ago it's deposits were less than $10OO00 and now they are over five hundred thousand dollars being more than five times what they were when he assumed it's management. MT. Gray. by the way, will be Jefferson County's next treasurer, and his election to that office will be made tomorrow without any opposition. The success of the Peoples Bank is largely due to his individual efforts and he has req son to be proud of its growth and suc- cess.
 MT. John D. Elliott, who is the cashier of the bank, has been with it since its or ganization ten years ago, and no one in banking circles in the city is more univer- sally popular than he. Altogether the Peo- ple's Savings Bank in its dealings with its customers and its treatment of those do- ing business with it is such as to com mend it to all.
 In it's savings department the Peoples pays per cent interest on deposits, and inVitpp4 nf large or small
