TOWN TOPICS. A PLEASANT GATHERING AT

 SOME OF HIS FRIENDS TOGETHER.

STATION AGENT c. B. TAYLOR GETS
 SOME OF HIS FRIENDS TOGETHER.
 We are very particular to say, in the caption, that Station Agent c. B. Tay- Tor gets some of his friends together.
 He could not get them all together, not at least at one time. He could are so numerous that no picnicking place could hold them all; and, second because, like himself, they are all pretty fair eaters, and no company of wives or SWeetheartS would care to un- dertake the task of cooking a sufficient supply to go around. Although MT Taylor jumps about at the station as spry as a cricket and can smash Sara tOgas with any young man, he still is slipping along some where past ''the dead line of 5O," and still jolly you bet. His birthdays come and go with start- ling rapidity; and, unlike the mem- bers of the weaker sex who are silent on this tQuchy point, he prOclaimS the fact to the world every year that he is getting older by roasting corn and bak- ing clans. His friends gathered. on Saturday of last week at Taunton lake and did Mine Host royal honor by eat- ing well and having generally good time. The gentlemen of the party waxed warm with enthusiasm of the occasion by roasting the corn to deep dye of blackness, and the ladies secOnd- ed their efforts by flanking the corn and clans with pie and what-not. Some faces showed some sooty marks l after the feast, but at picnics you do neatneSs. The tables which had been left for the postponed Congregational Sunday-school picnic furnished just the right support for uphOlding the weight of good thingS-anOther illus tra tion of "It's an ill wind that blows no one good.'' Some black clouds and angry rumblings cut the picnic short by an hour or two, but it was the much of pleasure in little space of time: were present: c. B. Taylor, W. H. Hubbell J. B. Wheeler, A. c. Moore, Rev Otis w. Barker, R. Martendell of l New Haven, Robert D. Sammis of | Stratford, w. M. Reynolds, George F. | DuncOmbe, D. c. Bacon and l.. c. Mor ris.

IT IS IMPORTANT
To Know What You Are Taking When Using Catarrh
 Medicines.

Catarrh is the short route to consump- ton, and the importance of early and tudicious treatment of catarrh, whether located in the head, throat or bronchial tubes, cannot be too strongly empha- sized.
 The list of catarrh cures Is as long as the moral law and the forms in which they are administered, numerous and confusing. from sprays. iuhalers, washes, ointments and salves to powders, liquids and tablets.
 The tablet form is undouDcedly the most convenient and the most effective. but with nearly all advertised catarrh reme- dieb 1t Is almost entirely a matter of guess work as to what you are taking in- to your system, as the proprietors, while making all sorts of claims as to what their medicines will do, always keep 1t a close secret as to what they are.
 The success and popularity of the new catarrh cure, Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, is largely because 1t not only cures catarrh but because catarrh sufferers who use these tablets know what they are taking into th. ir syst ms. Stuart's Catarrh Tab let's are composed or Red Gum, Blood Root and similar valuable and antiseptic ingredients, and are pleasant to the taste and being dissolved in the mouth they take immediate effect upon the mucous lining of the throat. nasal passages and whole respiratory tract.
 The cures that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets have accomplished in old chronic cases of catarrh are little short of remarkable, and the advantage of knowing what you are putting into your stomach Is of para mount importance when 1t is remembered that the cocaine or morphine habit has been frequently contracted as tho result of using secret catarrh remedies.
 Stuart's Catarrh Tablets meet with cor dial approval from physicians, because their antiseptIc character render them perfectly safe for the general public to use and their composition makes them a common sense cure for all forms of ca tarrhal troubles.
 All druggists sell them at 50 cts. for full sized packages. thu-sat-sun.

SUPREME COURT HANDS DOWN DECISION AFFECTING THEM.
Restraints City from Emptying New Sewers Into Valley Creek, on } Complaint of James l. sande-
 fur, Property Owner.

The Alabama Supreme Court yesterday, by Mir. Justice Haraison, handed down an opinion which Is of far reaching importance to the city of Birmingham in that 1t materially aftects the new sewerage system of the Magic City. s3!sg ,
 The sewerage system of Birmingham was completed several years ago. It ap- pears that it's main outlet is into Valley Creek, which flows southward from the city. James l.. Sandefur. who owns considerable property and residence adjacent to the stream below the city. about a year ago secured an order from the Chancery Court of Jefferson County restraining. the city from ernptying its sewage into Valley Creek on the ground that 1t was detrimental to his property interest. s5stfL HI
 The decision of the Chancery Court was appealed to the Supreme Court and the city of Birmingham contended that even though Sandefur was damaged by the sewerage system he had neglected to complain for so long that bis claim T9s out of date. .f,ts7 1T. ga
 In an opinion by Mir. Justice Haralsor handed down yesterday the court af. firms the decision of the lower court apd holds that the vested propefty rights of Sandefur have been injured tI,,eT The ip- junction is made perpetual and the court says that Sandefur had a perfect right to complain at any time when his rights were being invaded by the city of Birm- ingham.
 It Is probable that the city of Birming- ham will resort to further litigation as 1t is said the decision of the courts ma terially affects the sewerage system and may ultimately cost the city govern ment a great deal of extra expense.

Good Show at McDonald's, But
 Theatre was Like a Refrigerator.
 DeLeon's Comedians began an engage ment at McDonald's Theatre last night which will run through the week. Bar ring the fact that the temperature in the playhouse was near the zero point, the entertainment was success. The management promises that the theatre will be better heated tonight
 The bill last night was Police Alarm, !" a sensational meIodrama, which gave the company of sixteen persons an exceilept opportunity to display talent. Excellent specialties were interspersed between the acts and during the action of the play. These specialties included real clever song and dance act by the Shrewsberry sisters, two pretty little girls. who were three times recalled a song and dance act and illustrated songs by Miss Gay ErroI and topical songs by Frank De Leon.
 If inc theatre had been heated, the play would no doubt have gone with greater anan but persons in the audience who were wrapped in overcoats. positively suffered in their sympathy for the young women who were required to wear de- coIIette dresses with short skirts on the stage and the actors who more than once were required by the playwrights to stand in their shirtsleeves.
 If was A distinct compliment to the DeI,eon Company that majority of the nersons in the audience remained to see the finish of the play
