 "The world is chiefly indebted to Pas teur for lAe inestimable boon of immuni- zation. since his researches in bacteriol- ogy. and in the relation of bac eria to disease, are practically the foundation of known that the discovery of vaccination by Junner long preceded Pasteur's, but Jenner's was one of those wonderful ac- cidents, and it's effect alone was all that was understood for many years.
 This discovery of Professor Welch will revolutionize all other serum or virus preventives and cures, as by the simple subcutaneous injection of this new liquid all diseases may be made to be things of the past.

IN HOTEL LoBBIES.
hoteIs Filled.

The hotels of Birmingham are filled with guests every day. Even during the dull summer season few rooms were va cant and now with the busy Tall season it is a question of how to take care of all who register.
 About a year ago the hotels and board ing houses were over crowded and it looks as if the same condition would be the rule from the first of November until Christmas No city of 100000 has as much hotel capacity as Birmingham. But few cities of that size are such att tractive centers as Birmingham. A greater number of prospeetors, drummers and business men in general register at hotels in Birmingham in week than register in other southern cities in month

cheap iron grating so suggestive of a barn that one almost expects to see wisps of hay sticking out. In fact, the structure has been lilxened to stable or barn by. nearly every observer. It has just received it's first coat of white paint, which has emphasized the impov- erished appearance. Perhaps three or four coats will improve it, but at present it Is sad and dreary looking affair. It is a matter of universal regret that when 1t became necessary to mar the beauty of the White House grounds by putting up another building proper steps were not taken to insure the erection of credit able structure. The new building is not even fireproof. The workmen arc making only fair progress on the wings that are to extend on either side of the White House. and unless these things are hur- ried somewhat the chances are that these Improvements will not be finished by tho. time congress meets.

Street Car Tracks.

"As I watched the work of track lay ing on Third avenue today was thinking of the wonderful development in street car lines in my day. said a middle-aged citizen.
 "I remember when street cars rolled over wooden sleepers strapped with light iron. The TT rail came into use soon afterwards, but it was a very small rail. Next came the 50 or 60-pound rails, then the 7O-pounders, and now I see 9S-pound rails on Third avenue"

Mason Valley as a fesdlao Point.

z. Pierce shipped to the Western
Meat Company Thursday four car
loads of beet cattle, and yesterday
ten carloads. This practically
cleans out the beef cattle IN this Sec
ton. During the past Winter in the
neighborhood OF three thous sand head
of beef cattle have been fed in this
valley, and probably about one
thousand head of stock cattle. This
has made a season of prosperity for
farmers, as all the hay raised here
has been sold at good prices. Those
who fed here have generally been
well satisfied with the treatment
received, and all declare that Mason
Valley il the ideal Winter feeding
ground. In the neighborhood OF ten
thousand tons of hay have been con-
tracted tor from this years crop, 80
it IL evident that some of the pa rites
who fed here this season will be
back again next Winter. The only
drawback to the valley IA feeding
place IL that she liz not able to ship
cattle direct on a broad gauge rail
road, but it il hoped that this bad
feature will soon be done away with
by the widening of the G. u G. gauge.

Wool Growers, Atteatlon I

We have the very best facilities
for handling, storing and marketing
your wool. Just having completed
a $4,000 hre-proot, brick building in
this city conclusively proves that we
are in the business to stay.
1t has been proven, beyond the
shadow OF a doubt that, where large
quantities OF wool are offered, better
prices are obtainable. This was dem.
onstrated last season by the Bald win
Land and Cattle Company OF Hay
Creek. Oregon, and Ivy other concerns
in various sections.
We have three quarters of mil
lion pounds of wool now pledged us
and upon the accumulat ton of 100000
pounds or more, we will have well
advertised sales. This will bring
purchasers to this market who have
never been in this field before. there
by through competitive bidding get
ting better prices for woods than
could possibly be gotten otherwise.
We will make advances on woods
up to ga of its market value, thus
putting you on n good financial foot
ing without lessening your chances
OF receiving highest prices.
Don't ship your wool TO San Fran
cisco, or sell to zone man" purchasers,
and be at the mercy of few specu-
lators; but consign to us and let the
wool be sold on its merits.
We especially invite the wool
growers to an inspection of our plant.
Give us a trial shipment and be con-
WINGED of our assertions.
