Kidding JAIL OF
FEMALE PRISONERS
MAYOR coNcElNES PLAN THAT |
HE THINKS WILL NOT ONLY |
RELIEVE CITY BUT WILL TEND
TO RECLAIM.

Mayor Drennen has conceived a plan
which. he believes. will dispose of the
female prisoners in the city jail, now a
burden on the city, because there Is no
work which they are capable of perform
ing.
The plan is to remit the fines of all
those that some reliable firm or person
will take away from the city and put to
work The firm or parties desiring the
women will pay their way out of the
city and keep them at work so that they
will not return here and be re-arrested
In speaking of the matter last night
Mayor Drennen said:
These women are arrested and stay In
jail where there is no work for them
TO do. When their time is out they are
re-arrested with in a few days and only
make a burden on the city. This plan
1 think will get rid of them and give
them a chance to live down the bad rep
utations they have in Birmingham.
"One firm operating a mine near Berry.
Ala, has written and asked me to ship
fifteen of these women as soon as possi-
BILE, and he promises to pay the freight.
I will remit the fines of these women in
order to get them out of the city,

CRESCEUS LEAVES
WITHOUT TROTTING
FAMOUS REcoRD-BREAKER SENT
TO SELMA YESTERDAY, BUT
MAY RETURN AND GO ON
TRACK NEXT FRIDAY.

Cresceus, the worlds champion trotter,
was shipped to Selma yesterday after
noon. where he will trot Wednesday
against time. The weather was so bad
yesterday that the owner of the horse
was unable to take him on the track, and
decided to ship the horse at once.
The rain yesterday made the track so
heavy that 1t was impossible for any
horse to have trotted, and Cresceus would
have run too many risks had an attempt
been made. This is the second time that
the weather has prevented the races, the
first time having been Thanksgiving day
when the track was In bad condition.
Arrangements will probably be made
to bring the horse back to Birmingham
next Friday. when the programme ar
ranged for yesterday afternoon will be
pulled off. There are a large number OF
people in the city who are eager to see
the great trotter, and the park would
doubtless have been wei filled had the
races been held yesterday afternoon.

Charged With Manufacturing
Counterfeit Money
A MOUNTAIN CABIN RAIDED
Secret Service Men Batter Down the
Door and Seize counterfeiting
acknowledgements Coin
Circulated In Huntsville.

On the top of Monte Sano mountain,
ten miles from Huntsville, is located a
lonely and seemingly innocent cabin, but
within it there resided up to a few days
ago a man who 1t is charged has for
some time been engaged in the manu-
facture of counterfeit money, moulds and
other equipment having been found at
the time the raid was made by secret
service men. The man discovered in the
cabin, Martin Evans. was arrested by
the officers and taken to Huntsville,
where he was bound over by United
States commissioner in the sum of $1,000.
For some time 1t seems there has been
a large amount of bad money in circu-
lation In Huntsville. This fact was re-
port ed to the secret service department
in Birmingham. and they at once began
an investigation, and soon ascertained
that a man lived on Monte Sano noun
tain, and 1t was thought he was engaged
In the occupation of manufacturing
counterfeit money.
A party of officers raided the cabin
in which the man lived at sun-up one
morning the past week. Evans heard
their approach and barred the windows
and doors. The officers battered down the
front door, and the arrest of Evans was
accomplished.
In the cabin the officers found a large
number of moulds for the manufacture
of silver coin and a quantity of counter
felt coins, and metal from which they
were evidently moulded. Material was
also discovered that indicated an at
tempt was to be made to manufacture
counterfeit gold coins.

CHANGE OF CLIMATE
Not Necessary In Order to Cure
Catarrh.

OdLdTTIs
The popular idea that the only cure for
chronic catarrh is a change of climate, is
a mistake, because catarrh is found in
all. climates in all sections of the country;
and even If change Of climate should
benefit for a time the catarrh will GER
tainly return.
Catarrh may be readily cured in any eli
mate, but the only way to do it is to de-
stroy or remove from the system the ca
tarrhal germs which cause all the mis-
chief.
The treatment by inhalers, sprays, pow
ders and washes has been proven almost
useless In making a permanent cure as
they do not reach the seat of disease
which is in the blood and can be reached
only by an internal remedy, which acts
through the stomach upon the blood and
system generally.
A new discovery which is meeting with
remarkable success in curing catarrh of
the head throat and bronchial tubes and
also catarrh of the stomach, is sold by
druggists under the name of Stuarts
Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets, which are peasant and
harmless to take, owe their efficiency to
the active medicinal principles of Blood
Root, Red Gum and a new specific call
ed Guaiacol, which together with valu-
able antiseptics are combined in convent
ent palatable tablet form, and as valua-
BILE for children as for adults.
Mr.. A. r. Fernbank of Columbus, O..
says: II suffered so many winters from
catarrh that / took 1t as a matter of
course. and that nothing would cure it
except a change of climate, which my
business affairs would not permit me to
take
my nostrils were almost always clog
ged up; / had to breath through the
mouth, causing an infamed, irritated
throat. The thought of eating breakfast
often nauseated me and the catarrh
gradually getting into my stomach took
away my appetite and digestion.
My druggist advised me to try a fifty
cent box of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, be-
cause he said he had so many customers
who had been cured of catarrh by the use
of these tablets that he felt he could
honestly recommend them 1 took his adj
vice and used several boxes with results
that surprised and delighted me.
II always keep a box of Stuarts Ca
tarrh Tablets In the house and the whole
family use them freely on the first APP
pearancc of a cough or cold in the head.
with our children we think there is
nothing so safe and reliable as Stuart's'
Catarrh Tablets to ward off Group and
colds and with older people I have known
of cases where the hearing had been Sc
riously impaired by chror catarrh cured
entirely by this new remedy"
