The Fourth at Talladega.

Talladega, July 5.-(Special)- 1.-The Fourth of July celebration in Talladega was quite an imposing affair. A large crowd participated and there was much interest and enthusiasm. The military display was the main feature of the oc- casion. Tour companies, composing the End battalion of the 3rd regiment, under command of Major Daniels of Anniston, were present as follows: The Gadsden Rifles, commanded by Captain Echols; the Anniston Rifles, Captain Shellnut; the Oxford Rifles, Captain Smith, and the Talladega Rifles, Captain B.

 R. Clayton Hicks and Jim Williams Of Bibb County were crestfallen when they reached police headquarters. Their bright dreams of Utopia, a land where money IS free as air, were hollow mocker1es; 'the iconoclastic police had rudely shattered their ideals of wealth and lavish display.
 The turnkey at the police station searched their clothes, and searching their clothes found more of this Bfbb County money. The stolid desk sergeant made notes while the turnkey searched. There was real money in their clothes, but 1t was not to be exchanged. K. Clay- ton Hicks and Williams had use for real money only to be used before a camera.
 Hicks and Williams are young men, but old enough to have known better. Hicks is a blonde and is of stocky build weighing about 175 pounds. Williams. who wore spectacles, is angular and weighs about 125 pounds. Both men have intelii- gent faces and wore good clothes.
 When the counterfeiters had confessed to Police Captain Taylor he swore out warrant against them charging them with making and passing counterfeit money. The warrant was sworn out before United States Commissioner John A. Fillmore and at o'clock yesterday morning the two men were taken into the Commis- sioner's court where their bonds were fixe1 at 5000 each. They will have pre- lifninary hearing before the Commission CT Monday morning at 10 o'clock.
 The announcement that their bond had been fixed at s50o0 each carried sorrow to the hearts of K. Clayton Hicks and his companion, Williams. Five thousand dollars Is a great sum of money and they did not have so much money, real or oth- erwise, about them just at that time.
 And so R. Clayton Hicks and his com panion, Williams, slept last night at the Montgomery County jail.

been done each day during the past week. The entire week was taken up by the half dozen lawyers interested Tn thc case. They have perhaps done more preliminary sparring on this case than in any suit in MontgcD cry courts in recent years. A large sum of money, about $110,0O0. is involved and the lawyers are contesting every inch of ground.
 Yesterday, like other days during the week, was given over to argument by counsel Upon pleas and demurrers. At the opening of the court, it was an- rounced that Hon. W. l.. Martin of Mont gomery., formerly Attorney General of Alabama, had been retained to assist Hon. Jesse Stalllngs and Capt. J. G. Finley in the prosecution of the case for the county, and MT. Martin appeared at the bar of the court.
 The counsel for the county submitted a big batch of demurrers to the pleas filed on Thursday by the lawyers repre- senting MT. Cochran and the bond com- pany.
 These demurrers were argued at great length, and the county filed counter pleas.
 It was o'clock yesterday evening when the lawyers concluded the argument and the court adjourned until 10 o'clock Mon day morning, Judge Jones announcing that he would render an opinion on the demurrers at that time.

' TT captured hha in field back here"
 ''Indeed." said one of the farmers. And what might your name be ?''
 My name Is Fontaine." said Booth, with out a smile.
 ''FontaineP' calculated both men simulta- neously Then you are the very man we want Come back to town with us."
 Certainly" said Booth, in the most good natiired manner; and. wheeling the horse he rode back to Louisville with his captors.
 The city jail was then in charge of Colonel Thomas, who knew Booth well. we have brought you Fontaine, the horse thief, and claim the reward" said the farmers, proudly addressing the jailer.
 Where is he?" they were asked. Booth was produced. Why, what does this mean Mr. Booth? 2" asked Thomas.
 'I haven't the slightest idea" said the great tragedian, with the utmost simplicity. T met these two men with this horse. and they in sisted upon giving it to me. I guess they stole it. I think of them is Fontaine."
 The rustics were about to be locked up when. by the most singular coincidence a man rushed to the prison door on horseback and shouted out the information that the real Fontaine had been taken into custody, Booth made Fontaine's acquaintance in jail. and the horse thief, who executed later, left bv will his skull to the actor.

SCIENTIFIC FEEDING. And Exercise Solves the Problem.

Dr. H. l.. Warner, in a recent issue of the New York World says:
 .OnIy a small percentage of the Ameri- can people have perfect digestion and r! similation of food and the elimination of the waste matters of the body. In the matter of food and exercise, the whole prcb blern of health is contained. By mak- ing these right, we can create perfect health.
 Digestive disturbances are due either to improper food or too much or too little proper food. With proper food taken in reasonable amounts the imperfect actions of the various processes are cor rected.
 This is not fad but a fact established by the researches of pathologists and bacteriologists. The action of foods on the digestive and assimilative organs is known exactly. 1he result to the blood and through 1t to the whole system is certain and definite"
 The most highly nutritive food now manufactured is Grape-Nuts. It is made from certain parts of the grain and put through a mechanical process whereby the starches arc changed to grape sugar and the phosphates of the cereals re- tained and thus supply the necessary nourishmcnt and vitality to the body, brain and nerve centers.
 In its predigested form. Grape Nuts does not overtax the stomach, but renders sufficient assistance to the digestive organs to permit of the easy assimilation Of other food.
 Thoroughly cooked at the factory by food experts brings Grape-Nuts from the grocer to you ready to serve with the addition of cream. and its crisp taste with the delicate sweet of the grape sugar, makes it pleasing to the palate of the most critical epicure.
 These are scientific facts which can be proven by anyone and a trial of ten days Or two weeks will show what you can do on scientific feeding.
