Work Again Stopped.

It was thought when work was again commenced upon the new Court House after the tall dome was destroyed by fire, that the construction would be pushed steadily forward until the build ing was completed, but yesterday came another hitch in the proceedings, and today all is quiet in that neighborhood. At o'clock the workmen laid down their tools and were told their services would not be needed again until further notice. ,r The reason given by e, the contractors, scarcity of material.
 When the building was first contracted for it was specified that it should be completed within a certain period, but later the plans were changed at the coun- tvs suggestion, and since that lime no attention has been paid to the time limit, ed, and the citizens complaining because the building is not finished.

The Street Tax Ordinance.

The action of the City Council in pass ing the street tax ordinance Monday night has been the subject of consider able discussion among Selmians since that time and many opinions have been expressed. both favorable to and againht the measure. The citizens are divided upon the subject, but a majority seem to be in favor of the measure.
 It has been customary with every Council since the Selma military compa- nies have been established here, to ex- empt the members thereof from all head and poll taxes, and the failure of the or dinance to exempt the military has cs@9ed a great deal of complaint to be made by the men who do duty as sol- d1ers during flower fetes, street fairs and other gala occasions. The 1iremen are also kicking, although Mayor Mcleod called the attention of the Council to the fact that volunteer firemen are ex- empted by State laws, and several have threatened to resign unless given more consideration. The members of the Phoe- nix Hose Company No. 1 being espe- cially indignant over the fact that at the same meeting at which the street tax was imposed the city refused longer to pay the rent on the hall occupied as a meeting place by that company. Some of the officers of this company have talked the action of the Council over among themselves, but have come to no definite conclusion as to the steps they may take to secure a new meeting hall, although 1t is probable that at it's meet ing the Council will be petitioned to rent another in some more convenient place.

FIRED AT THE NEGRO
wATcHMAN PORTER SHOOTS AT
 woULD-BE BURGLAR.
The Bullet Went Wide of the Man. Police Attempting to Get Track of Box Car
 Thieves.
Advertiser Bureau.

Advertiser Bureau,
 Selma, Sept. Il.
 For many years and in fact, since the Southern hallway has been storing load ed cars at Bakers Switch, about mile north of the city, thieves have made the place sort of rendezvous, committing Various depredations and nearly always getting away with their booty. The city officers have always kept sharp watch police and detectives have been employed to watch the cars during the night, and still the losses from this source continued to occur with alarming regularity.
 Recently several gangs have been rounded up by the police and much Of the stolen goods has been recovered, but no evidence has been discovered as to who actually commit the thefts.
 Ed Porter is night car inspector for the Southern and part of his duty con sists of watching the property of the ing after the rolling stock. and he ac- cordingly carries with him a revolver while going in and out among the cars.
 Last night MT. Porter was making his usual rounds looking for hot journals. .tc., when he espied the form of a negro man creeping along the side of a box car Just ahead of him. Porter hailed him. the intruder running away as soon as he learned that he had been seen. and the car inspector returned to his work of looking for defects among the outgoing cars. In about an hour, however, the negro returned and was walking through the yard when MT. Porter, who had been watching for his reappearance, stepped from behind a convenient box car and caught the negro. soundly featuring him and warned him to leave and not return. which the man promised to do.
 Later the negro returned with a rail- roadi lantern and after walking around the cars several times commenced to force open the door of a car loaded with merchandise, thus attracting the atten- tion of Mir. Porter. who promptly fired at the would-be burglar but missed him. The negro then took to his heels and ran of into the darkness.
 This place has been a dangerous stor- age track for many years, and many shots have been fired at the burglars who pilfer the contents of the cars placed there, and sooner or later one of them will be killed. The police are looking for the negro who was fired at by MT. Porter last night

ferent substances have shown that the hest material to use for this purpose Ia chloride of lime. This. however. cannot be economically and thoroughly used except where some effort Is made to keen the manure for a time at least in a more or less confined space. The open manure heaps everywhere seen about stables account for the majority of our horse flies. They may be swarm ing with house-fy maggots, the num- bers of which, in a good-sized pile. will Undoubtedly in midsummer run into the millions. One thousand two hun dred mageots have been counted in q pound of manure.
 The house fly is e rapid breeder. Tn seven or eight to ten warm days : generation will be produced. Each female lays 12o eggs. and with twelve or more generations in a summer, the descendants of single individual, in- creasing in geometrical proportion, will in autumn be almost countless. Stables, especially in towns and cities. should be kept clean. Manure piles should be kept either in a vault or in a closet and a shovelful of chloride of lime should be thrown over them with each days addition to the pile. When the manure Is to be removed to the garden or field. then and then only should the closet or vault be opened except. of course. for the daily addi- tions. I am assured by a competent chemist that the addition of chloride of lime does not injure the value of the manure. Some such measure as this should, in towns and cities, be enforc- ed by the boards of health. Penalties for the open disposition of human ex- crement should be made and enforced.

ECCENTRIC WILLS.
Some Queer Requests Made by Per sons in Their Dying Moments.

Some Queer Requests Made by Per sons in Their Dying Moments. Pittsburg rPess.
 When Benjamin Franklin died. in 1790, he left a small sum of money which was not to be used until the twentieth century. His gift is at last available, and the sum now amounts to $375,00 having been invested at compound interest.
 The trustees of the Franklin fund have decided to use the money for the erection of a Franklin Institute in Franklin Square, Boston.
 Curious provisions made by the will al e more common than one would sup pose. Within the last few months there have been several examples of eccentric disposals of property. To one young woman has been left S25, 900 by her brother under the express condi- tions that she neither marries nor be- comes a nun. If the conditions are not fulfilled, the money Is to be distributed among other relatives.
 To his three daughters an Italian who recently died left $500 a year each if they remained single. and $2,500 each year if they married.
 A late member of the English Par llamen. left by will to his two daugh- ters $72O.OOO, with the provision that the money is only to be payable if they attain the age of 35 years without mar rying either a citizen of the United States or a Hebrew.
 More singular even than these odd bequests was Lord Bute's wish. ex- pressed just before his death, that his heart should be taken to the Holy Land and buried on Mount Ollvet, wh.:l was accordingly done.
 Even more eccentric than these strange bequests was Lord Southcy's 6 cool arrangement for suicide by means of guillotine. He had a magnIluent one erected in the drawing room ( has house in the Rue de Luxembourg at Paris. The machine was of ebony, irlaId with gold and silver, the frame woik carved with artistic skill. The kE-fe, sharp as a razor, was of pol isa%u and ornamental steel. Prepar- ing for death. his lordship had nis hair GU! close and. clothed in robe of wntt silk, he kneeled upon the plat fo-"l under the knife before a mI(fo- and pressed a spring which would Ie- lease the knife, but the spring failt Q to act. and the would-be suicide de- cided to give the guillotlne to a niu- sam instead of making a second at tempt to end his life.

HARM DONE BY THE FLIES.
They Convey Germs of Disease from
 One Victim to Another.

Dr. l.. O. Howard of the division of entomology of the Agricultural De- partment calls public attention to the great harm done by the common house fly in the carriage of disease germs After referring to the activity of the fly in this direction during the civil and Spanish wars. and in Egypt, where the fly is responsible for the tranfer- ence of the eye disease (purulent oph- thalmia) common among the lower classes, Dr. Howard says:
 Evidence has been gathered which shows that where excrement is not properly cared for, as in box privies in small towns and in the country, as well as in the lower quarters of large cities, where in alleyways and vacant lots and other waste places the sub- stance Is frequently found, the house fly carries virulent typhoid germs and transmits them to food substances in houses. It has been shown that ac- tive typhoid germs may be found in excreta for some time before the character of the fever can be recog- nized 1t is also shown that they are found in such places for some weeks after the patient has apparently re- covered. and now that we know as a definite fact that the house fly breeds in this substance we consider the enormous numbers in which it swarms in the kitchen and dining rooms and how, for example. in many cities milk jugs are left standing In the early morning when just filled by the milk man outside the kitchen door. 1t be comes a matter of wonder that typhoid fever is not more prevalent than 1t actually is.
 The importance of organized effort looking toward the decrease in num- bers of this insect, therefore. at once becomes evident. Considering that horse manure is the breeding place of the very grear majority (and I think 1t is safe to say that more than 95 per cept of the house flies in most civilized regions breed in horse manure), the first step in remedial work is naturally the effort to stop the breeding. Ex- periments in the treatment of horse manure piles with number of -dif-

of "a prescription for so dangerous a

economical and reckless person to try

there is no book or paper that can take

light ailments, and especially prevent
