WASHINGTON. Dec 3.-President NC
kiniey's message went to Congress to-
day. 1t follows:
To the Senate and House Of Representa-
tives:
With the outgoing of the old and the
incoming of the new century you begin
the last session of the Seth Congress. with
evidences on every hand Of individual and
National prosperity and with proof Of the
growing strength and increasing power
for good of Republican institutions Your
countrymen will join with you in fe-
licitation that American liberty Is more
firmly established than ever before. and
that love for 1t and the determination to
preserve 1t are more universal than at
any former period of our history.
The Republic was never so strong. be-
cause never so strongly entrenched in
the hearts of the people as now. The
Constitution, with few amendments, exists
as it left the hands of its authors The
additions which have been made to u
proclaim larger freedom and more ex-
tended citizenship. Popular government
has demonstrated In its 124 years Of trial
here its stability and security and its
efficiency as the best instrument of Ma
tional development and the best safe
guard to human rights.

CONDITIONS IN PHILIPPINES.
Recommendations for a Civil Gov
eminent for the Islands.

In my last annual message / dwelt at
some length upon the condition OF at
fairs in the Philippines. While seeking
to impress upon you that the grave re-
sponsibility of the future government of
those islands rests with the Congress Of
the United States, l abstained from rec
ommending at that time a specific and
final form of government for the terri
tory actually held by the United States
forces. and In which, as long as the in
surrection continues, the military arm
must necessarily be supreme. l stated
my purpose. until the Congress shall
have made known the formal expression
of its WILL to use the authority vested
in me by the Constitution and the stat
utes to uphold the sovereignty of the
United States in these distant islands, as
in all other places where our flag right
fully floats. placing to that end at the
disposal Of the Army and Navy all the
means which the liberality of the Con-
gress and the people have provided. No
contrary expression of the will Of the
Congress having been made, have
steadfastly pursued the purpose so de-
clared. employing the civil arm as we'll
toward the accomplishment of pacifica-
ton and the institution of local govern
ments within the lines of authority and
law.
Progress in the hoped-for direction has
3
cessfully controlled the greater part of
the islands, overcoming the organized
forces o. the insurgents. and carrying
order and administrative regularity to
all quarters. What opposition remains Is
for the most part scattered obeying no
concerted plan of strategic action, oper,
ating only by the methods common to
the traditions of guerrilla warfare. which,
while ineffective to alter the general con
troll now established are still sufficient
| to beget insecurity among the popu.a-
tons that have felt the good results Of
our control. and thus delay the confer
ment upon them of the fuller measures
of local self-government. of education
and of industrial and agricultural devel-
opment which We stand ready to give
them.
BY the Spring of this year the effective
opposition of the dissatisfied Tagals to
the authority of the United States was
virtually ended. thus opening the door
for the extension of a stable administra-
ton over much OF the territory of the
archipelago. Desiring to bring this about,

HUNDREDS SAW
 DEAD MANS FACE But He Was Buried Unknown, Without Friends or ReI-
 ativeS Near.

"You can't tell me that the people do not read the Age Herald" remarked Mr. Smiley of the Warner-Smiley Company yesterday to an Age Herald reporter. "Tll bet 300 per- sons have been in here today to look at the body of this unknown man we have. This morning when they began coming in I couldn't imagine what it all meant until l got hold of the Age-Herald and saw the story about the man killed by an electric car last Tuesday,, and who had not been identified"
 MT. Smiley said that for several hours yesterday morning his place was crowded with persons who had called to see if they could identify the man, but none of them could do so. The nearest that any one came to establishing his identity was J. c. Johnson, jeweler at 1902 Second avenue. He said he recognized the man as one he had seen between Birmingham and Pratt City several days ago who inquired if there were any Scotch people in Birmingham. MT. Johnson says he directed him to go to the Birmingham Rolling mill where num- Der of Scotchmen are employed. He said the man stated that he was a stranger in Birmingham and knew no one here.
 The remains, which had been embalmed by Warner-Smiley Company were buried yesterday afternoon in the cemetery across Red mountain, the Birmingham Railway and Electric Company paying all the bur ial expenses.

PITTSBURG MILLS
 HAVE SHUT DOWN
All Under the Amalgamated Association Have Been Closed Awaiting the Sign
 Ing of the New Wage Scale.

Pittsburg, June 9o.-All the iron, steel and tin plate mills under the Jurisdiction of the Amalgamated Association will close tonight, but there will be no strike as is customary on June 30 each year when the wage scale remains unsigned. Assistant President Thomas Mansell, of the Amal- gamated Association, explains that the shut down cannot be called strike as ne- gotiations are pending on the three scales presented to the manufacturers and an agreement on all of them is probable as soon as the manufacturers and workers are ready to resume operations.
 By the closing of the union mills fully 100000 men become idle. In addition to the union mills, many non-union plants will be shut down for repairs.
 Fully 10000 window glass workers VT, Dc idle during July and August, and longer unless the wage scale is arranged before September 1, but there does not saem to be any doubt now that all differences will be adjusted by that time.
 All the flint bottle and chimney glass fac tories close tonight, the former for two months and the latter for six weeks. AS 8 result 10000 flint glass workers will have 8 vacation during the hot months. The flint glass wage scale has been satisfac- torily settled except in the chimney branch, and this will likely be adjusted before the time of the next fire. H..

INTERESTED LADIES.
Working in a Good Cause.

Tn the institution where I am employed as nurse (the Home for Aged Women) we find many ladies suffering from gastric trouble caused by coffee.
 My own personal experience is that since a child I have been a moderate
 thinker of coffee but most of the latter years have suffered from acidity of the stomach, sluggish liver and nervousness. T finally gave up coffee entirely, about three years ago, using hot water in it's place. Of course, after removing the cause. the symptoms disappeared, but I seemed to need a beverage more strengthening than hot water, as my occupation of nurse re-
 quired considerable exertion. I began to look about for a suitable breakfast bever- age and, undertook the preparation of one
 by browning some wheat berries and using
 that as coffee but the result was far from
 satisfactory. Finally I came across Pos-
 tum Food Coffee, on a visit at my home
 in Roselle, N. J., and found it exactly flt- ted the case.
 'I have been using it regularly and in- troduced 1t to our institution. When it
 was first served, it was not satisfactory
 but looked into the matter and insisted
 upon having it boiled fully fifteen minutes
 after the actual boiling had started, not
 counting the time that it was on the stove before boiling began. The next time it ap- peared you would not think it was the same article, it was so much improved. several Ol tHc pdtlentS ueClueu tO use It 10 the exclusion of coffee and I found that it's use reduced the number of cases of indi- gestion. The result has been very grati- flying, and for two years now Postum Food Coffee has been in daily use at the home Mrs. Matilda Seaver and Miss Anna Merrill are desirous that their names be used to help forward the good cause. My mother has been greatly helped by the discontinuance of coffee. She was former ly subject to cramps, but they have en- trely disappeared since she has abandoned coffee and taken up Postum Food Coffee. Respectfully, Miss E. Stryker, Elizabeth. N. J."

AMUSEME IS.

There are shows, and there are shows, but of all the shows that have showed In this town, "The Belle of New York" which was the offering at the Jefferson theatre last night is by far the warmest proposi- ton that a Birmingham audience has come face to face with.
 In the first place, the production IS nothing short of elaborate and 1t was dini- cult to imagine that one was not seated in the Casino, in New York. Almost every detail of the original production was pre- sented, and by company which IS thoroughly up-to-date.
 There are lots of spice and ginger with a few pods of cayenne pepper mixed up with humor and a bevy of pretty girls, to say nothing of the music, which Is bright and catchy, forming altogether one of the best attractions that has visited Birming- ham.
 'The Belle of New York" can be com pared to a three-ring circus, for at times there iI so much going on that one can scarcely keep up with it at all.
 The plot, which Is well marked, Is the vehicle for extravagant fun making or a most entertaining order and every part was ably carried In fact the cast IS so evenly balanced that 1t would be an ih- justice to mention any one without men tioning all
