Wilson Brown and Baking Powder.


 "Once upon a time long time ago. the Hon. Wilson R. Brown. then q leader of the Alabama Legislature from Colbert County, now D most highly esteemed cit- izen of Birmingham, was staying for a time at Shelby Springs, where he was the admired of all the young women be- holders" said business man of public leadership last night.
 "One day Wilson Brown had that tired feeling and he had the impression that a tablespoonful of bicarbofate of soda, ordinary cooking soda, by the way, would relieve him of his physical distress He went to the kitchen of the Springs and asked the head cook, a dear old black mammy who was so fat that there were ebony creases in her neck and arms. for some 'sody.' She placed before him Gin her hurry) two bottles saying that one contained 'sody' and the other baking powder, and he was to help hissef.
 'As luck would have 1t, Wilson Brown helped hisself to about quarter or pound of baking powder.
 "The effect of his mistake was extraor- dinary. He swelled up until he couldn't see the toes or nlS own snoSS, dhu tHe cast of his Napoleonic countenance was more grave than the look upon Napo- Icons face before Dessaix arrived on the battlefield of Marengo-you known Wil- son Browns face. head and hair are marvelously like the portrait of the great Napoleon!
 For the first and only time in his life Wilson Brown wot 'skeered,' He fancied that he would either explode or float away upon the circumambienlt air. Yet he was happy. That rising baking pow der eased the bangs of indigestion from which he suffered It comforted and soothed him wonderfully, and he was happier than he had been since, In the dear days that are done, he in moon- light sung Marguerite to the surpass- ingly beautiful maidens of Montgomery, nearly a dozen years ago.
 "Singularly enough Wilson Brown has never suffered from indigestion since that day of the baking powder at Shelby. Likewise singularly enough, that swell ing has never gone down!'

COURT PROCEEDINGS.

Court is in full blast here with
Judge Wright on the bench, and
as the Grand Jury did not raise
until Tuesday, with their batch of
indictments we could not get much
facts. The indictments are not
made public until prisoners are
captured and brought in. The re-
port shows that 81 indictments
were found, the most in years in
this county. We learn that 32 of
these are against chicken fighters
in Murray City and Logan. A few
of them have presented themselves,
plead guilty and were fined $40
and costs, amounting to $500.
"Bill" Buzzard, the noted bird
of Buzzard's glory, plead guilty to

tall ones. Perhaps this Is because they
by the fair sex-and it is only natural
for them to prefer the girl who in her
little caressinys and fascinating, lover
like ways, has, on account of her short
ness. to look up at him for the purpose
of prering into his love-lit eyes.
Tall women are usually dgnitied.
and appear to scorn kittenish ways.
and although they manage to draw adj
miratiOn it is rather of the awe-inspir-
ing kind.
No doubt. owing to the smallness of
stature, and pretty, playful ways. men
give to little women more petting than
the tall. dignitied woman demands. The
lovers oft-repeated expression. you
little darling" could hardly be applied
to the very tall girl without tickling
the risibilities of those who overheard
it.
This is certainly very hard and looks
like Il punishment for being tall. but
who can help her stature? 1t is a fact,
too, that men are rather shy about ap.
preaching tall women because of the
restraint which they feel but cannot
explain.
They are under the impression-why.
it is hard to tell--that tall women are
built to be commanders. and they are
in their natural element when left
alone in their reserved dignity and
musings in their lonely wanderings.

Mail Matter.
The main improvement i'll the postal

some time past has been along the line
of increased rapidity of collection ana
distribution of mail matter, and Ill all
the larger cities wagons have been utll'

thought seems to have been given to
an improved box which would allow
the collector to make his tour without
leaving the wagon. it having been con-
sidered sufficient Improvement of the

between boxes Andrew l.. Henry OF

which makes it unnecessary for the

Betrayed by king Which He Wore
to Prick Cards With.
"The story that John W. Gates, the
iron trust baron, was fleeced on an
ocean liner by card sharps who used a
'pricked deck reminds me of a curious
thing that happened years ago at Mem
phis," said veteran sporting man. ut
was in the days of 'wide-open' gam
bling along the river and the principal
figure in the affair was strapping Cal
ifornian who was known as Colonel
Henry and who had attracted some at
tention as phenomenally successful
poker player. He made no secret of be-
ing a professional gambler, but nobody
had ever detected him doing anything
crooked, and he enjoyed an entree to
most of the places where gentlemen
played in those days.
zone night Henry got into a row
with man in clubrOOm. and jumping
up from the table where he was playing
poker he struck him in the face with
his clinched fist. The man fell like a
log. and when he was picked up every.
body was surprised to see that one
cheek was cut open from eye to lip. As
Henry had nothing in his hand, none
could understand how the cut had been
inflicted. but the victim himself threw
some light on the subject. THE scOun-
urel wears a ring especially made for
''pricking cards. he said. and guess
that's what he wounded me with
IAN investigation followed, and. sure
enough, a very peculiar ring was found
on the middle finger Of the Califor.
mans right hand. "A small triangular
blade could be raised from the side of
the setting and projected about one
sixth of an inch above the surface. Its
purpose was to prick the backs Of the
cards SO that in passing them under the
