The lot sold for about s400 per front foot, not including the improvements which are estimated to be worth about $6,OO0. The lot adjioning the one sold yesterday was pur- chased two years ago for $125 a front foot.

A SYNDICATE TO
 PROSPECT FOR OIL Believed that Petroleum Exists in
 the District ACTUAL TEST WILL BE MADE Half the Necessary Money Has Been Raised and an Expert Engaged Location of Proposed Wells
 Has Been Selected.
ACTUAL TEST WILL BE MADE

That petroleum exists in the Birmingham district is firmly believed by persons who are cognizant of conditions in other dis tricts where it is found. The question of it's presence, however is to be definitely set tied at an early date by actual tests made by boring into the earth.
 The Commercial Club Friday afternoon authorized the president to appoint com mittee to take up the question of prospect ing for petroleum and in accordance with a resolution to that effect President Kettig appointed a committee consisting of Maj. F. r. Anderson, w. N Malone and B. Steiner.
 Since the action of the club became known through its publication in the Age-Herald yesterday morning the statement is made that a syndicate is being formed to prospect for oils. Over half the money necessary to purchase the machinery and to pay all of the expenses connected with the tests to be made has been subscribed and an expert engaged to conduct the investigation. The location of the proposed wells has been se- lected and work is to begin at once. Cramp- ton & Tharpe the real estate agents, repre- sent the syndicate

APPROACH OF THE
 BASEBALL SEASON First Games will be Played Last
 Week of April LOCAL TEAM IS COMPLETE Irwin Wilhelm, a Crack Pitcher, &c., cured-ParIt to Be Put in First Class Condtion-Mana- ger Mills at Work.
LOCAL TEAM IS COMPLETE

The latter part of this month or early in March the Schedule Committee of the Southern Baseball Association will meet in Memphis to fix the schedule for Nthe sea son. It is probable that the first game will be played in Birmingham on Wednesday, May 1, though the season may open a week earlier. Atlanta will likely come to Birmingham for the opening game, to be followed by Nashville or Chattanooga. The Eastern teams will play at home on Dec \ oration day, Fourth of July and Labor day and the Western clubs will offset these big days by Sunday games at home. It is probable that Memphis will be in Birmingham on July 4, and Shreveport and Little Rock on the other holidays.
 Manager Mills has completed his team with the exception of a first baseman and he has accepted the terms of first-class man for that position. During the past week he received signed contracts from Irwin Wilhelm of Wooster, O., a pitcher who comes highly recommended by Char ley zimmer the veteran catcher of the Pittsburg, Pa, club, and Charley Krouse outfielder, who finished last season with the Minneapolis team of the American League. He comes highly recommended iS d ldSt Heiuer anu SOOu HiIler.
 Superintendent J. Warner Shook of the Alice furnace has promised Manager Mills that he will have the slag pit at the back of the ball park posted during the season and that he will take steps to keep people from watching the games from that place. The fence along the Alabama Great Southern track will be built higher to shut off the view from that track.
 Work the grounds will begin as soon as the old bicycle track Is removed, which will be sometime this month. Before the season opens the diamond will be leveled of and rolled and the outfeld will be graded and put in first class condition.
 Manager Mills has received several sug- gestions to the color of the uniforms for the local team in response to the notice he gave a week ago that season ticket would be given to the woman whose sug- gestion is adopted
 The Birmingham team will be brought to the city fully two weeks before the season opens in order that they may have the advantage of that amount of training for the first t..ne. It is the intention of the management to enforce strict discipline and to require the men to keep themselves in good condition at all times.

PUFFED UP. But She Got Over 1t.

It sometimes takes nerve to quit a habit even after it is plain that the habit is running the health.
 little woman who was sick from coffee poisoning (and there are thousands like her) writes, "I had become almost coffee fiend, drinking it at each meal, then afterward I was nervous and weak that I would drink more coffee. I was a great sufferer with stomach and heart trouble.
 Everything I ate distressed me There would be great puffs beneath my eyes and was reduced to IDS pounds and was really slowly dying.
 A gentleman talked seriously to husband and myself about my giving up coffee and using Postum Food Coffee. He convinced me, from his own and others experiences, that probably coffee was the cause of my trouble, so we tried Postum, but at first it seemed so flat and tasteless that I was almost discouraged. However, I looked at the directions on the package and found I had not been boiling it long enough, so followed the directions exactly and had a clear, rich beverage. with a strong ring of good coffee, and very delicious taste. ? I began to sleep better and was not quite so nervous, my stomach and heart trouble slowly disappeared, and, of course, as I was getting well I stuck to Postum, and that was easy, because 1t tasted so good. Now after a years using l can truly say I never felt better in my life, have no trouble whatever with my stomach sleep well, eat well, sDd wight 127H pounds. My nervous headaches have all disappeared, I feel like telling everybody that Is Ill to try leaving off coffee and use Postum Food Coffee. for 1t will sur,ly work 8 cure" Mrs Ella Kitching.

CHURCH CHOIRS.
A New Sacred Song That is Beautiful
 and Popular.

The choir of St. Mary's-on- the Highlands, under the direction of H. T. Staats, has been recently augmented by a number of excel lent soprano voices, making thirteen or fourteen singers in all. Between now and Easter the strength of the choir will be still further increased.
 St. PauFs choir held rehearsal at St. Pauls Hall Friday night and practiced Farmers mass, which will be sung this morning. There are few better choirs in the country than St. Pauls and the singing of Mrs Satterfeld, the leading soprano, has been unusually fine this winter She has a voice of rare quality and her high notes are exceptionally clear, sweet and vibrant.
 A new sacred song entitled Excelsior" published by Shapiro, Bernstein x Von Tilzer of New York; is being heard in many of the prominent church choirs O fthe coun- try and it will soon be sung no doubt in the Birmingham churches It is already be- ing sung in the parlors of this city. "Ex- celsior" is by Stephen Adams, who wrote ''The Holy City" and is on the same style of that popular solo; if any thing it is even beautiful and stirring and its climax is in- tensely dramatic.
 T. " Boardman will sing grand baritone solo at the First Baptist Church tonight.

ANOTHER PLAN TO. BREAK JAIL FOILED Lon Williams Twice a Murderer
 Plans Escape HE HAD FILE AND A WEAPON They We're Discovered by Deputy Sher- if w. l. Love, Who Had Tempo
 rary Charge of Jail-Home-
 Made Instruments.
HE HAD FILE AND A WEAPON

Another unsuccessful attempt was made yesterday to break jail. Lon Williams, double murderer, who has once been sen fenced to imprisonment for life for murder and Is under sentence of death for d second murder, in some way became pos sessed of a saw, a heavy paddock and piece of chain. With his saw he intended to get out of his cell and the chain and paddock he had fastened together, making a formidable weapon, a blow from which would have been fatal. This could have been used had he succeeded in getting out of his cell to knock down the jaier or any one who opposed his exit. The saw was made out of steel knife, teeth being cut in both edges.
 Williams might have succeeded in escap- ing but for the vigilance of Deputy Sher- if w. I. Love who had charge of the jail yesterday morning. He discovered that Williams had the saw, and communicat- ing the fact to Sheriff Burgin search was made of his cell and the paddock and chain discovered. These and the saw were taken from him. How he got possession of them no one knows but his cell had recently been changed and it is thought this may have given him an opportunity to commit nicate with some one.
 Williams is the negro who at times pre- tends to be crazy and sings and laughs and claps his hands, This latter noise was once heard in the street and led some pas sersby to think some one was being whipped
 Williams was first sent to the mines for some minor offense and while there he murdered a co-laborer by driving pick through his head For this he was sent up for life, and while in Pratt mines killed another convict For this he was sen- fenced to death. His case is now in the Su- preme Court and he Is being confined in the county jail awaiting it's decision.

From developments Of the past sew
eral DAYS it seems that the proposed
interurban line from Wausau to Mer-
rill is to be but one link of an extern
sive system. Application for street
railway franchise has been made to
the common council at Stevens Point
by Mr.. Fisher who is thought to be
acting for the capitalists who have
secured the option here and who are
also represented by Messrs. Frawley,
Bundy & Wilcox OF Eau Claire Mr..
Fisher assured the .S4evens Point peo-
pie that he had an abundance OF cap
ital behind him and was prepared to
give bond for the faithful perform
ance of his contract. Work would be
commenced as soon as the franchise
was granted and he expected to have

moters have looked over the country
about Tomahawk, Eagle River and

worked out--Wausau Central.
