PLAINTIFF GETS A
 VERDICT FOR $1OO
AMUSING INCIDENT IN COURT WHEN JURY AGREED ON $4oo, WHILE ATTORNEYS HAD PREvI- oUsLY AGREED ON LESS.

An amusing incident arose yester- day in the suit of Sarah Cleghorn against the Southern Railway company, in the city court, before Judge Senn.
 The case had gone to the jury, and after 1t had been with them for an hour or so the attorneys for the two sides had a telephone conversation and agreed on a Judgement of s1o0 for the plaintiff.
 One of them telephoned the clerk of the circuit court to have the jury called out, and not to allow them to proceed in their deliberations over the case.
 Dr. J. S. Gillespie, clerk of the court rushed into the court room and arrived just as the jury announced that a verdict of $400 had been found for the plaintiff. There was considerable joking at the ex- pense of the attorney for the plaintiff, but he stuck to his agreement and the judgment for s1OO was awarded.
 He feels that he did not fare so badly, after all, for if the verdict of s4O0 had stood, he felt certain that the case would be appealed by the defendant, delaying the payment of the money for at least two years and then, too, there was the chance that the supreme court would re- verse the case, thereby necessitating d new trial and the consequent delay that would be thereby caused.

AMERICAN BISCUIT co. A Branch Factory Will Probably Be
 Located Here.

F. Charles Christy, representing the American Biscuit company of Baltimore, has been in the city making investiga- tions with view of establishing branch here. He was favorably impressed with the city and has reported that he con- sidered Birmingham superior to any other southern city for the purpose.
 His company depended on his report as to the locality for the plant, and this means that it will probably be establish ed here. The company will be capitalized at s5O,000 and will erect a plant worth about s25.O00 in a building of about the same value.
 In case the branch factory is establish ed here 1t will be on the north side, prop erty having been secured and an option held on 1t conditioned on the plant being erected here

Viola Allen.

It Is a big production that Viola Allen Shakespeare's ever delightful comedy, Twelfth Night" which is to be seen at the Jefferson theater tonight.
 Miss Allen has an envious record in the way of choosing successful plays and in selecting players to support her in them. Twelfth Night" is not below, but above, the usual Viola Allen play. The equip ment as to scenery, properties and cos tunes is described as being superb. The company. too. is particularly fine one, since Miss Allen has never relied solely upon herself to please and satisfy.

The "Iiliputians in "Gulliver's Trav- els" formed the attraction at the Jeffer- son theater. at matinee yesterday after noon and performance last night. The word amusing aptly describes the in- pression made by this production. As so often happens in matters of the stage, there were some good features and others that could have been much better pre- sented. There was also an air of antidui- ty about certain scenes that probably ac- counted for the apparent apathy of the audience. The Llliputians offer a per formance that inclines to the juvenile and appeals more to children than to grown people.
 Among the players, several of the lit- tie people succeeded in winning applause. James D. Rosen, as Blubberly, was favorite with the audience, and his wit to being a dull performance. AL Rice. as Lemuel Gulliver. had no special aualifica- tions for the part except his huge bulk. while no other members of the troup showed any special talent.
 The songs were exceptionally tuneful. even though several of them have been heard often before. but unfortunately the chorus was not able to sing them with good effect. The show girls were, how ever, well drilled and If they had been more numerous would have made a much better appearance. The costumes were also good, and the scenic effects strilS- ing. The succession of stage pictures presented near the close of the perform ance was especially pleasing, some or the canvasses shown being rather hand some. There was just a little too much rough and tumble fun in "Gulliver's Trav- els to suit most people but, as play for the children, it filled the bill exactly.
