BESSEMER LAND BRINGS GOOD PRICE
Result of Recent Auction Sale Indicates Great Era of
 Prosperity

Bessemer, Sept. 24.-(Special.) )-An auction sale of lots in Gilespy's addi- tion to Bessemer, lying between Nine teenth and Twentieth streets, Exeter and Fairmount avenues, demonstrates that Bessemer will wait many years before property will reach the former boom valuation. Lots in that addition brought $2, $3 and $4 a front foot 190 feet deep. At this valuation in vestors can afford to buy and i'm prove. Another sale just made at the corner of Arlington avenue and Twen- tieth street, within three blocks of the business center of the city. The tract, a choice residence location, 100 feet square, which was sold in the sum- mer of 1882 for s4,000, brought $500. Values have now reached their level in Bessemer, and no one now believes that the time ever will come when they will be less.
 As to Churches.
 The general prosperity prevailing will rebound specially to the advant- age of Bessemer in assuring it some creditable church edifices. There is not a church building in town half worthy of town half its population and wealth. There is not one that is at all creditable. The First Methodist Episcopal Church is the best and most commodious, but it is an insignificant structure, not large or commodious enough to accommodate the various uses desirable to make of it. The con- 'gregation, however, is arousing to the occasion and times. They have just purchased a $3,000 organ and have ar ranged to make a substantial addition to the church building, especially for the Sabbath school and for the assem-

bly rooms The Baptists have got dis gusted with their quarters and have purchased a new site and have their plans for the finest church edifice in north Alabama outside of Birming- ham. It will cost $16,000. The Pres byterians will be content with their present modest structure while de- voting their energy and means to building a neat two-story parsonage or manse, as they call it.
 Court in Session.
 The Bessemer City Court is now in session. Only one case so far has been taken up, and that is pending. It is case of damage against the Wood ward Iron Company for the killing of man by the name of Ward in the Red mountain iron ore mines about a year ago. The suit is by the mother, claiming $20,000 There are quite a number of damage cases on the docket this term. Without these damage cases against corporations there wouldn't be much work for courts or lawyers here. The grand jury is now in session.
 The city is compelled by the un- usual attendance of the public schools to build an addition to the Howell school.

WARTS AND WEEDS.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
 WISHING AND WORKING.

IL is popularly believed that warts can be wished away. But the farmer who 1 sat down and tried to clear his field by wishing the weeds away would soon find his crops gone. It takes working to get rid of weeds, and the man with the hoe must put in many long day before he can take a we'll earned rest.
 It is a singular fact that great many people treat certain forms of disease as warts are said to be treated-by wishing. This is especially SO in the case of

LATE NEWS FROM THE TRACK
CROWD NOT LARGE At TRACK TO-DAY

Despite the fact that the ladies were
admitted free to the race track today the
attendance was not so large as on the
preceding days of the meet. The day
was ideal, the track fast and the finishes
good.
The betting was more lively than on
any previous day and the books had all
they could take care of.
A very noticeable fact was that the
odds offered were poor. The books seem
to want all the money and they are not
taking any chances in getting It. Much
dissatisfaction was expressed at the odds.
The first event scheduled as 1922 pace,

place was substituted a best in race.

Gen. Charles S. Warren is today on
the high road to fortune. Never before
was he so cheerful or so confident.
Two months ago, with friend named
Stevenson, he listened to the tale of
Lost Cabin mine from the lips of 4
Mexican at Rossland, B. c.
He had listened to them before an l
had been stampeded before, but he re-
solved to take lone more whirl."
With Stevenson he proceeded to Cali
forna and went to the mountains near
Fresno, where he met the old Mexican,
whose son at Rossland had told him the
tale.
The old Mexican confirmed every word
of it, Gold in wide, thick cakes: gold
in bars and pigs; gold in dust and in
quartz was all there in the hills, as the
old Mexican's son had stated. He would
take General Warren to the spot and
prove what he said was true.
The season was too early and the
rivers high. General Warren turned
back and arranged for his son Wesley
and Stevenson to go later to the Mexi-
cans hacienda and proceed to the Col
conda.

THE WADE WILL CONTEST
IS REVIVED ONCE MORE

will the eastern heirs Of the deceased
were to receive 81 each and the widow
was to have the balance.
When the contents of the will were
made known, T. o. Wade and John w.
Wade, full brothers OF the dead man, APP
pcared upon the scene and claimed
foul, asserting that the alleged will pre-
scented by the widow was a fake. They
asked the court to set aside the order
admitting the will to probate. While the
matter was pending Melinda J. Wade,
the widow, also died and James r.
Dickey and Robert King We're appointed
as executors of her estate. AS is custo-
mary in such cases, they We're substi-
tuted for Mrs. Wade as defendants in
the action to establish the validity of
the will. The trial OF the case resulted
in the will of the dead man being de-
clared forgery and the estate was
divided among the eastern heirs.
Now comes Robert King with a motion
in which he asks the court to cancel the
judgment for $232.75 costs obtained
against him in the case. He says he paid
the Judgment a short time after it was
r. ndered, but the court records show it
unpaid. Further, he says that Messrs.
Corbett and Welcome were attorneys
for the two Wades who succeeded in
knocking out the alleged will and that
as the former is dead and the latter is
rot engaged in the practice of law at
present the cancellation cannot be made
by them.

A Complicated Suit Over q Dead Man,
Estate Is Given New Life Because
of Failure to Cancel a Court
Judgment - Variance Be-

Records

Failure to cancel court Judgment has
revived the old contest over the estate of
james r. Wade, which had a long run
in the district court here a few years
ago.
December g. 1883, Mr.. Wade died in this
city, leaving property valued at about
SO, 200. He also left wife, Melinda J.
Wade, and several half and whole
brot hers. All except the wife resided in
Virginia and Missouri. No will was found
at first. January %, 1889, the widow
petitioned the court for letters of ad-
ministration on the estate and February
it was granted, but March II she pro-
duced what was alleged to be will left
by her husband and asked that it be ad-
mitted to probate, claiming that after
her appointment as administrators she
had found it among the dead mans eff
fects The will had been executed with
a pen and there were no witnesses to it,
March %, 1885, the will was admitted to
probate, the letters of administration
previously issued to her were revoked
and she was made executrix of the will
and property in accordance with stipu-
lation of the will. By the terms of the
