MAY BUILD LIGHT
 AND WATER PLANT
BOARD OF REVENUE COMPLAINS THAT COUNTY BILLS ARE TOO HIGH AND MAY FURNISH ITS OWN ELECTRICITY.

The Board of Revenue adjourned yes- terday until Monday. On Wednesday the board will take up the question Of building and equipping a light and water plant to supply the county courthouse and Jail. The board thinks that this will be economy to the county in the long run in view of the heavy charges made for lights and water. The electric light bill for the jail and courthouse for March was $260, and the water bill was S91. 46 making a total for the month of $35l .46 for lights and water.
 Most of the county offices close at six o'clock and the board thinks the light bill Is unreasonable. As member stated the bill for March was the largest they have ever had while the days were longer in March than in February and less light was needed. The water bill for March is not as large as some bills but will increase each month as the hot weather approaches.
 It Is the intention of the board to dig a well in the back yard of the courthouse and establish an electric plant there. Plans and specifications for these have not yet been drawn. but the whole mat ter will come up for discussion Wednes- day.

NOT BELIEVED THAT
 FRUIT WAS DAMAGED
Heavy Frost Fell, But Was Modified By the Wind-FeW Trees In
 Bloom.

Althought there was heavy white frost Tuesday night in the Birmingham district and in other sections of Alabama, the weather men do not believe it injured the fruit trees seriously.
 Local Weatherman Jacobs said yester- day afternoon the frost was heavy, but not necessarily damaging, as there was nothing to injure in most portions of the state except the blossoms. The frost was principally in the northern section where the trees are later in blooming than the southern portion, and were therefore not in condition to be injured seriously.
 No reports of injury have been sent to the weather bureau here. The thermome- ter Tuesday night went to within two degrees of freezing, but the wind was blowing slightly and had much to do with modifying the effects of the frost.
 Frost was general over the eastern por- tion of the Southern states. Georgia, Ala bama, South and North Carolina and Ten nessee were paid visit by the white king. but it is not thought the fruit was damaged except in Tennessee.

CITIZENS GO TO POLICE
 TO HAVE TRASH REMOVED

asking that wagons be sent to remove the trash.
 Leaving trash barrels on the sidewalks is violation of the law, but when I get after a person for 1t they complain that the wagons fail to collect it. There Is city ordinance against this, but If the garbage people fail to carry out their contract what am I to do?
 "A clause in the agreement between the city and the garbage contractors gives the mayor the right to employ a wagon to haul the garbage away if the company s wagons fail to do so. It seems to me the only way to get the streets and alleys cleaned Is for the mayor to hire the wagons and take it out of the money paid to the contractors.
 '"The boxes and barrels are an eyesore. Even in the residence portion of the city they are to be seen out in front of the houses, making a very unfavorable im- precision upon visitors in the city.
 "As an example of what say just look up Fourth avenue. There are dozen barrels and boxes on the sidewalk be- tween Twentieth and Twenty-first streets. If I were to arrest those per- sons for violating the law they would complain against the garbage contractors and it does not look right"

CITY TO PAY FOR
 RETURN OF PEROW
WHEN ASKED TO DIETARY EX- PENsES OF EXPERIENCING AL LEGED HOTEL THIEF GOV. JELKs PLEADS NO FUNDS.

A rather unusual state of affairs was developed at the meeting of the council last night when Alderman Gum chair man of the police and sanitation com- mittee offered resolution to appropriate enough money to pay the expenses of an officer to go to Jacksonville, Fla, and return with Frank Perow who is wanted in Birmingham charged with theft and who is now in jail at Jacksonville.
 Alderman Heidt called attention to the fact that the money which would be earned by Perow after conviction would go to the state and that Governor Jelks had refused to pay for his being brought to trial, saying that the state had no funds on hand for this purpose.
 It was stated that Perow had been systematically robbing guests of a certain time. That the owners of the hotel would not contribute 'anything towards having him brought back for trial and that if he was to be punished the city must bear the whole expense.
 Alderman Altman said that the hotel people if they were unwilling to pay the expenses of bringing him back ought to be published so that the public would know they were unwilling to protect their guests from such robberies.
 Alderman Gray thought the city should 20 slow as 1t would establish a preced- ent While the state would not pay to have this prisoner brought back he had heard that the city of Birmingham had paid the expense of police officers who went to help look for Frank Duncan.
 Alderman Jones thought each case should stand by itself and that in this instance the man ought to be brought back Alderman Altman doubted whether the city had the legal right to appro- priate money for this purpose. Alderman Kerr said the city had spent money to send the chief of police to police con- ventions and the Mayor to mayors con ventions and he thought it might be done this time. The Jones resolution that the man be brought back was passed.

CHIEF AUSTIN RECEIVES MANY COMPLAINTS, BUT HEsITATEs TO MAKE ARRESTS WHEN THE CONTRACTOR Is TO BLAME.

Complaint after complaint has been made at the office of Chief of Police Austin recently about trash barrels and boxes being left on the sidewalks in both the business and residence sections of the city. There are from 10 to 50 reports made daily about this nuisance and the chief is determined to take some action.
 Another source of complaint Is the dir ty condition of the alleys, the people claiming 1t is impossible for them to get the garbage wagons to remove the trash when 1t Is placed in the alleys. In dis cussing the question Chief Austin said yesterday:
 'The filthy conditions of the alleys and trash boxes being left on the pavements are causes for constant complaint to me and people often telephone to my office

GROOM CHARGED
 WITH PERJURY
MOTHER-IN-LAW CHARGES THAT HAMP BRYANT SWORE FALSELY AS TO THE AGE OF HIS BRIDE ELECT.

MT. Hamp Bryant, a young white man of Avondale, who married Miss Stella Sandlen Saturday, was arrested yester- tiay on a warrant sworn out by his moth er-in-law charging him with perjury and placed in the county jail. The offense which MT. Bryant Is said to have com mitted is swearing when he obtained the marriage license that his bridge-elect was IS years of age, when, as her mother, Mrs. Sallie Sandlen, says she is not IS.
 The bride herself says that she Is go- ing on IS and that she told the groom that she was IS, and that he is there fore not to blame. The groom, when seen at the county jail yesterday after noon. declined to make any statement He had just been vaccinated and had had bath, these being trials which all per- sons now entering the jail are compelled to undergo.
 The brides mother has opposed the marriage and the young people were mar ried Saturday evening at the home of Mrs. Cotton, by the Rev. s. B. Johnson, pastor of the Newman chapel, at time when Mrs. Sandlen was in Birmingham. After the ceremony when she returned and found out that the marriage had taken place she was indignant and on Monday had a warrant issued for the young man who was not arrested until yesterday.
 Mrs Bryant is over the average size for girl of IS and looks to be fully that age. She followed her husband to town yesterday and began efforts to have him released. She is a blonde with blue eyes and good looking, while her husband is a brunette. They are both cotton mill operatives, the young man being a weav- CT. Mrs. Bryant was also a weaver prior to her marriage
 Friends of the young people are endeav- bring to have a speedy settlement of the case either by placating Mrs. Sandlen or by having a speedy trial. MT. Bryant said last evening that he had not yet employed counsel.

PROVISIONS
 ARE GOING UP Advance of Half Gent Pound Within Last Five Days PACKERS RAISING PRICES Retailers of Meat Must Follow Suit If Advance continues-People Get
 ting More and More to
 Eat Cereals.
PACKERS RAISING PRICES

Provisions have advanced half a cent a pound within the last five days and the tendency is still upward. Prices are two cents higher than they were this time last year While there is always a de- cline in June, quotations will move up considerably, it is thought, between now and that time.
 The Birmingham representative of q Chicago packing concern said yesterday that the high price of lards and meats was due, not to any material falling off in the supply as compared with former years but to increased demand on the part of consumers Provisions will keep on a high level of prices during the win ter and spring months, it is thought, un- til the hog and beef industry expands or until people learn to do with less meat
 Retail at Same Prices.
 The retail dealers have not put up their prices on the recent advance. Lard is higher than 1t was month ago, but with that exception grocers are charging no more for provisions than they did be- fore Christmas.
 A retailer who has large family trade said:
 'The grocers feel the advance but they to go slow in putting up the prices to their customers. Women Go most of the buying for the family and they do not take kindly to us when we raise prices. There has been no concerted movement on the part of the retail trade to ad- vance the price of provisions but if the packers continue to raise we will have to mark up our figures before long.
 q was fortunate in laying In large stock of meats before the advance and my customers are getting the advan- tage of old prices for in one or two ar ticles I am a little lower than other grocers."
 Retail quotations follow: Lard 121s to 13c; pig meat, small average square cut, 121ac; ribs, 1Oc; hams 121s to 16c. The price of ham varies according to the brand
 Demand for Cereals.
 A Twentieth street grocer remarked that the demand for cereal foods was in- creasing and that many families who could afford to live well were dispensing g with meat altogether at breakfast Cereal preparations are selling better this sea- son than ever before. There is hardly well regulated family that does not use wheatlet, cream of wheat, malta-vita, Ralston's breakfast food or some such article for the first meal of the day. But 1t will be long time, perhaps, before there Is a noticeable reduction in the quantity of meat consumed in this dis trict, and packers can count on con tinuance of large volume of trade no matter how high they shove up prices"

LARGE CONGREGATION ATTENDS THE INITIAL MEETING OF THE REVIVAL SERVICES-MAkE A TALK, OUTLINING WORK.

A large congreg gation was present last night at the initial revival service of the Rev. Dr. L. W. Muuhall at the First Methodist church. Dr. Munhall preached no regular sermon, making merely an informal talk about the work proposed to be done and the results to be accom- plished during the meetings.
 The Rev. pr. Curry made a few pre- liminary remarks introducing Dr. Mum hall and stating why the minister came to Birmingham to conduct the meetings.
 q am glad" said Dr. Munhall. that I came to Birmingham. I believe thea Lord directed me here. They told me down in Mobile that you folks up here in Birmingham think you are about the biggest things in the State. I am glad that you think so. It is well for com munity to think well of itself. But what Birmingham needs more than railroads, blast furnaces and ore and coal mines, Is salvation. If Birmingham did not have a church or a Christian in 1t, the mean est sinner in town would leave here be- fore tomorrow night. If there are ten thousand Christians in Birmingham and your property is worth S50,000, if you had twenty thousand Christians, then your property would be worth $10OOO0. Many Christians are in doubt as to whether they are saved. It depends in large
