SANDEFUR CASES
 AGAIN POSTPONED
WILL AWAIT DECISION OF Su. PREME COURT BEFORE TRYING DAMAGE SUITS AGAINST CITY. SUIT FOR INJURIES.

The damage cases of Dr. J. L.. Sandefur vs. the Mayor and Aldermen of the city of Birmingham were called for trial yes- terday. but after considerable argument Lowe for the city 1t was decided to await the result of the case of Land vs. the Mayor and Board of Alderman, which in- wolves the same question The case will be tried in the next few days. Dr. Sande- fur and MT. Land own considerable land about three miles west of Birmingham, and the sewage canal. which drains the city, has been cut through their property. They subsequently, filed suit against the city for damages alleged to have been in- cured by the stench and foul water flow ing through or by their property.
 At first Dr. Sandefur sought an injunc- ton against the city in the Chancery Court, and Chancellor Carmichael held that his complaint was just. The Mayor and Board of Aldermen, through their attorney. Robert J.s Lowe, appealed to the Supreme Court and the case Is now pending. In the agreement for contin- uance yesterday a proviso was inserted by pr. Sandefur's attorneys that the Land case be tried and that the attor- neys on both sides agree to urge the Su- preme Court to. render an early decision in case of appeal.
 The case of Annie Miller vs. the Mayor and Board of Aldermen of Birmingham was on trial when court adjourned. The plaintiff claims damage for personal in- juries caused by the streets not being kept in repair

DR. M'GLATHERY
 SUED FOR NOTE
CLAIMS A CONDITIONAL CON- TRACT WAS SIGNED TO PAPER
 AND HAS BEEN DESTROYED.
 GIVEN TO COLLECTING AGENCY.

In the Circuit Court yesterday after noon, Dr. F. s. McGlathery made some sensational and interesting charges in defense of a suit filed against him by Lee J. Marks on a waive note amounting to $25 and interest.
 The complainant, Marks, alleges that he bought the note from the Merchants Trade Exchange, concern which Is now defunct, and that 1t has been due and unpaid since February 1899. Dr. McGlath- cry admits having signed the note, but charges that 1t was signed with condi- tlonal contract attached, and that this contract has been torn from the note and has been either Intentionally or uninten- tionally destroyed.
 Dr. McGiathery further says that the Merchants Trade Exchange was osten- sibly organized for the purpose of col- lecting accounts for business and profess sional men in and around Birmingham. To become a charter member the concern required of each applicant $5 In cash and a note for s25. Dr. McGlathery paid the $5. but says he refused to sign the note until the collecting firm agreed in writ ing to collect an amount of debts due him equal to the face of the note before 1t should become valid. He says further that the concern never collected a cent for him, and has torn away the written con- tract which he had attached to the note Dr. McGlathery says the firm went ou. of business soon thereafter, and the men connected with it left the city. On these grounds he does not consider the note a just debt.
 After hearing arguments on both sides Judge Coleman took the case under ad- visement, and will render decision with in the next few days.

KILLED BY STAGE FRIGHT.
Young Woman Making Her Debut nj
Paris Dies of Excessive
Emotion.

Stage fright killed Lucie Maniera, a
young Parisienpe who was making her
debut as an actress at Vichy, fter hav-
ing won hearts at the National Dra-
matio conservatory. She had played
distractedly, and her throat had so
contracted that she could hardly pro-
duce a sound. AT the end OF the first
act her associates found her pale and
exhausted and tried to give her encour-
agement TO go on for the second act.
AS she started to make an entrance
her heart futtered wildly, and the
stage physician advised against her
continuing. But the girl, unwilling to
embarrass the company, gave a lurch
and went on, simply saying:
"I am unsuited to this business and
will abandon the stage forever after
tonight"
During the second act she forgot her
lines, and the audience was painfully
conscious of the awful struggle the
young actress was making TO spur her
memory. Presently the spectators
saw her fall backward dead. After a
post-mortem examination the doctors
said she was killed solely by excessive

FINDS STRANGE FISH
Government Expert Enthusiastic
Over Trip to Hawaiian Islands.
OF the Three Hundred Species OBJ
tanned by the Special Commits.
sion No Fewer Than Fifty
Are New TO Science.

DR.. Barton w. Evermann, the we'll
known ichthyologist of the United
States fish commission, has just
reached Washington from an extended
inspection of the fishery resources of
the Hawaiian islands, for which expe-
dition congress made provision at Its
last session. DR.. Evermann is quite
enthusiastic over the result of the ex-
petition, both from commercial and
scientific standpoint. He says the
fishes of the Hawaiians are numerous
and most wonderful in the richness
and gorgeousness of their coloration.
Among the 800 species obtained by
members of the party up to the end Of
July no fewer than so species are new
to science.
1t goes without saying that the
fishes of these islands are almost
wholly different from the species
found anywhere else in America.
There are practically no species COM
mon to the two countries, so constant
surprise would await an American
angler, With scarcely an exception
the only names by which the fishes are
known to the people of the Hawaiian
islands are the native Kanaka names.
They abound in vowels, and most of
them are quite musical, though per-
haps a trifle long.
DR.. Evermann's compilation of about
900 native names has number that
would stagger any English-speaking
tongue. One of them is "humuhum-
umkunukuapuaa." which interpreted
means "the fish with a snout like a
pig" the species being that of the file,
fish. DR.. Evermann vouches' for the
correctness of the above name, as well
as that of the "humuhumueleele. .""aa,
"ahaaha," "aholehole," ""aluka," ""aluls
alukua," and "hinalea nukuloa." II
the Kanaka language there are only Il
letters, and new words nre often made
by simply repeating one or more syl
lables, for example, "aha" means one
sort of fish, while "ahaaha" means
another.
The catch, be it what it may, il
brought to the market alive and with
out sorting, so a trip TO any fish mer
chant entails the sorting process
Fish are sold almost wholly by Jap
anese merchants, not by the pound
but by the piece, and at an exorbitant
price, the common sort bringing a
least 80 cents pound. The absence
of ice in the islands makes fish lux
ury 20 the people.

AIabama's Old Capital.

Cahaba. the former capital of Ala
bama, is not even town now, being re-
turned by the census as Precinct 10 IN
Dallas County. Several years ago the
town site was sold for taxes and was
bought by "a negro for few hundred
dollars.
AT one time Cahaba was one of the
most important places in Alabama, be-
sides, the State Capital Its population
was made up of rich planters and slave
holders. Its situation is at the con-
luence of the Cahaba and Alabama
Rivers, and it was not only wealthy
place. but also one of the most beautiful
in the State. :,
The owners of plantations and the rich
traders lived in baronial style, theii
houses being of the architecture OF the
South at that day with large halls and
rooms, and verandas occupying almost
as much space as the rooms themselves
Extensive grounds surrounded each ano
flowers bloomed in profusion, while
magnolias, oaks and cedars were found
in abundance. Blooded horses neighec
and pranced in and about the stables arle
cocks strutted in the barnyards.
The, capital had been moved before
the Confederacy was born, and when thu
war was over the few men who had am
money left tried to start up business
and put new life into the ola place, bu
could not. A few years later even thu
county seat was transferred to Selma, an'
Cahaba was dead Some wealthy mel
tore down their houses and had them re
built in Selma, and soon the few re
naming houses were left tenantless.-

Never more in demand than now Is
the turnover shoulder collar of fine
batiste with insertions Of needlework
or lace. Some are expensive, others
quite reasonable" The collar bor-
dered with cluny lace requires no in
sertion or trimming. The material is
transparent or nearly so, and looks
as il it would go to pieces in the wash.
What is the surprise of the possessor
to see the fine collar return from the
wash as good as new. without weak
or worn spot and as fresh as possible.
OF course. the collar was not thrown
into the tub of other household linens,
but washed separately with warm, not
hot. water and lathcr of soap.
