TOLSTl PUT OUT.
Famous Russian Novelist Was Off,
 ciaIly Excommunicated Yesterday.

St. Petersburg, March 9.-The official organ of the Holy Synod today published the formal communication of Count Tolstoi the Russian novelist and social reformer, which was announced early in the year, as follows:
 'In its solicitude of the children of the orthodox church, to guard them from being led into corruption and in order to save those who have gone astray, the Holy Synod has deliberated upon the anti Christ and anti-ecclesiastical teachings of Count Leo Tolstoi and has deemed 1t expedient in order to preserve the peace of the church to issue a circular dealing with the heresies of Count Leo Tolstoi." The circular is as follows:
 Count Leo Tolstoi to the grief and horror of the whole orthodox world, has by speech and writing unceaslngly striv- en to separate himself from all commun- ion with the orthodox church and this not only clandestinely, but openly and in the knowledge of all persons. All at tempts to dissuade him from this conduct have proven without avail. Consequent ly the orthodox church no longer con- siders him to be one of it's members and cannot regard him as such as long as he does not repent and does not become reconcied to the church. We, therefore, place on record his apostacy from the church, and pray the Lord to restore him to a comprehension of the truth. We pray, therefore o Merciful God, who does not desire the death of sinner, to hear us have mercy on him and restore him to the holy church. Amen.

 The San Francisco Champion steeple chase, worth $3075. proved to be good contest. It was taken by Credo, carrying the colors of Tod Sloan. He gave away big weight to his field and won by ten lengths from Veragua, who had no trou- ble in beating his stable companion, Olin- thus.
 Cunard proved to be the best two-year- old that has appeared here by beating a good field in the First Trial stakes and taking halg second off the track re- cord He won driving from Golden Cot tage his stable companion, who beat Corringan with Sloan up, a neck for the place.

 WHOLESALE TRADE Large Volume of Business in

 a Lively Competitor In
 Southern Territory.
CHIEF, SHOPPING CENTER

Birmingham has always been good field for the retail trade. and in the past few years it has advanced to the position of the chief shopping center between Louisville and New Orleans. It is a great bargain town and no Southern city can boast of more progressive merchants.
 The stores here are large and elegant, as rule, and many dry goods and cloth ing firms carry as large and rich stocks as will be found in Cincinnati or Louis- vile. Shoppers come to Birmingham from nearly every section of Alabama and Mis- sissippi. because they are sure to find here just what they need, and because prices are low here in comparison with those of other cities
 Last year was the best, perhaps, in the history of the retail trade. Busi- ness was active during the spring just past, but it was dull in June. The fall trade promises to be exceedingly brisk, however, and on the whole, the volume of this years retail business will proba- bly, be almost, if not quite as heavy as that of 1900.
 The JobbIng Trade.
 While Birmingham is famous through out the country only as an industrial city, 1t is steadily coming to the front as one of the best jobbing centers In the South Ten years ago it had no job ping trade to speak of. ven five years ago 1t wasn't large, except in the hardware line. But in the last three or four years it has grown steadi- ly and today it is a lively compe- titor with other cities for the trade of several states. Every line is represented on a large scale except boots and shoes, md it will hardly be a great while be- fore there are three or four wholesale shoe houses here
 Volume of Business.
 Birmingham has six or seven large hardware concerns beside stove stores that carry some lines of hardware; six or seven large grocery concerns that do exclusively a jobbing. trade, besides sev- eral combination houses that do a gen eral wholesale and retail trade; several meat houses, several drug houses and ly jobbing business.
 The volume of Birmngham's jobbing business will amount this year to some thing like s15,000.000. In groceries alone the volume of business last year was fully s, ,OO0, ,OO0 and it is estimated that 1t will be as large. if not larger, this year. The volume of hardware trade amounts to about $S.0OOC00 annually. and the dry goods houses will do this year close on to S2, 2,0c0,C00.
 The wholesale merchants here are noted for their pluck and square dealing and most of the firms have large capital in- vested.

OLD RELIABLE
 HARDWARE HOUSE
May 6 Thomas Co.'s Big Stocks With Everything in Builders
 line-Some SpeciaIties

Very naturally hardware has long been among the leading mercantile interests of Birmingham. In fact, for years no job bling line in this section was anything like so extensive as hardware, and among the oldest and foremost concerns is the May and Thomas Hardware Com pany, of which c. E. Thomas is presi- dent; J. H. McCune is vice-president and T. F. Wimberly Is treasurer and secretary.
 This well known company is so highly esteemed by the trade throughout Ala bama, Mississippi and Georgia that words of commendation on the part of the press are entirely unnecessary. It has always been a synonym for fair dealing and cer- tain it is no hardware firm between Louis ville and New Orleans is more progressive or carries a more varied line of stock. Its large trade with the furnace and mining companies of the Birmingham district is of itself a high testimonial to the busi- ness-like methods of the concern.
 The May and Thomas company's large store in First avenue is one of the busiest places in the city, and its two great ware houses in Morris avenue, 2209-2211 and 2309-2311, are always filled with heavy stocks.
 The company makes a speciality of builders hardware. It is the representa- tive of F. and F. Corbin, the leading builders hardware manufactures in the Uniteed States. So important is this de- partment of the May and Thomas busi- ness that special man. D. J. Harding, is employed to do nothing but look after 1t.
 The company also has a large trade in builders supplies, such as sash. doors and blinds, lime and cement. This indeed is a great business in itself, and W. Nate Me Lemore Is employed as specialist to su- perintend it. MT. Harding was brought here from Texas and MT. McLemore from Meridian, Miss.
 In addition to the specialties named the May and Thomas company handle Orien- tai powder. Hercules dynamite. hollow ware, tinware and grates; blows and other agriculture implements; and as for hardware in general there is nothing that 1t cannot supply.
 Last year the May and Thomas com pany did a vast volume of business. It was the year that every body made money. Trade is large this year, too, and with this great hardware house 1t will be almost if not as quite as large as last year.

CITY OFFICIAL PAPER.
THURSDAY, JAN. "a, 1901.
DEATH OF QUEEN VICTORIA

Oueen Victoria died at Osbourne
House, Isle of Wright, on Tuesday, at
the ripe age of nearly So years, after a
reign of nearly "a years. No secret is
made in England of the fact that the
Queens death has been fastened by the
South African war, to which she was
bitterly opposed.
The sixty years of Victoria's reign
have witnessed marvellous expansion
and developcmeut oi England's resour-
ces. Since 1887 the increase in the pop
ulation of England, including Wales has
been from 1000 ,000 to 29,0UO,00O. The
population of Scotland in 1887 was
2.7OO,0OO and is now 1000, 900; but Ire
land, which had at that time a popula.
ton of 5000 900, has now only 4, zoe, 1000.
From 1887 to 1897 the population OF Lon
don increased from 100000 to 100000.
Manchester from go 900 to 405 900, and
Newcastle from $1,000 to 100000. The
commerce of England has increased in
even greater ratio, and the material
wealth of England has more than
doubled during the sixty-three years;
but the value OF land, particularly agri-
cultural land, outside OF the great cities,
is less now than it was sixty years ago,
and the falling off is so great as to offset
even the increase in some of the large
cities.
Victoria's reign has been the age of
improvement and invention. At the
outset of her reign railway service was
but in its infancy, the electric telegraph
had been imagined, but was still in the
minds of its inventors, and the postal
system was but partially developed.
Medicine, surgery, geology, chemistry
in fact nearly all the sciences-were in
their early stages. A thousand modern
inventions, such as the telephone, pho
Biography, monographs and the electric
light, which are necessities OF modern
life, were still undreamed.
Victoria Alexandria, Queen of Great
Britain and ireland and Empress of In
tia, only child of the Duke of Kent and
Princess Louisa Victoria Of SaxeCoburg,
was born at Kensington palace May "a,
1919. The Duke of Kent died in 1920,
and the general education OF the young
princess was directed under her mothers
care by the Duchess OF Northumberland
Until within few weeks of her eleva-
ton to the throne her life was spent in
comparative retirement, varied by tours
through different parts of the United
Kingdom. Queen Victoria succeeded
her uncle, William -, June 20, 1882, as
Victoria I, and her coronation was cele-
brated in Westminster Abbey, June %,
1888. Her Majesty was married Febru-
airy 10, 1910, to Prince Albert of Sake
Coburg- Gotha.
