MAN ADMITS HE
 TOOK THE WHISKY
HE WAS HARD UP AND TRIED TO SELL A BARREL OF SPIRITS WHICH HE HAD SToLEN-RE- TURNED PACKAGE.

A peculiar custom of law arose y4ster- day about noon when Detectives Bodeker and Hamilton took E. G. Roche into cus- tody on a charge of grand larceny.
 The man is charged with taking a bar rel of whiskey valued at $10O, from the Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham railroad freight house and attempting to sell it to a saloon keeper in the city. When the saloon keeper refused to pur- chase it and the police got to york on the case the man returned the whskey to tue house. The question which arose was whether his carrying the stolen property back made him guilty of grand larceny. or affected the case at all.
 Judge Feagln was asked If those cir cumstances altered the case and he saia they did not that in a similar instance a man would be guilty of grand larceny when he took the goods away from the proper owner. The man was then placed in jail with a charge of grand larceny.
 Roche admits taking the whiskey, stat ing that he was hard up and needed the money. He carried it to a saloon keper. who refused to buy it, saying he never bought stolen whiskey The police were notified of the theft by the freight ofh- cials and commenced an Investigation. As soon as Roche knew they were on his trail he went to the saloon, got the barrel of whskey and carried 1t back to the freight house. The company may not prosecute the case.

OLD YIADUCT IS
 BEING MADE NEW
STRUCTURE OVER THE RAIL ROADS IS BEING CONSTRUCTED IN A MOST SUBSTANTIAL WAY. SEABoARD EXTENDING.

The viaduct over the railroads on Twenty-second street is practically being rebuilt. About one-fourth of the struc- ture Is now torn up and new timbers are being put in wherever the old ones have routed or are weak
 The viaduct will not be built of steel as was at first proposed, but will be of massive timbers throughout. The work on the north end is being done by the Birmingham Railway. Light and Power company, but an important extension will be made on the south end in order to al- low the passage of the Seaboard Air Line tracks along Avenue A.
 The extension itself will be built by the Seaboard. All southside cars which have been running over the viaduct are now coming in on South Twentieth street and 1t will probably be several months be- fore the old routes can be resumed,
 The old viaduct extended from First avenue to Avenue A, crossing Morris avenue, Railway avenue and Powell ave- nue. and the new structure, when com pleted, will extend nearly, if not quite, to Avenue B.
 The Birmingham Water Works com pany have been engaged for several months in lowering the water main which comes in on Twenty-second street so that the proper excavations can be made for the building of the Seaboard tracks. This in itself was quite an undertaking as the work had to be done in such a manner as not to interfere with the water supply in the meantime. The proper level has almost been reached now and the end of this week is in sight.

White House, Washington,
 a4-Iu 2 100Q

White House, Washington,
 October [ 1903. Hon. Joseph o. Thompson.
 Birmingham, Ala:
 Your telegram received. The press Of business here is such that it is impos- sible for the President to go south this fall. He will, of course, be glad to re- ceive the committee.
 (Signed) William Loeb, Jr.,
 Secretary" This telegram from the secretary to the President Is in response to a telegram from the Hon. Joseph o. Thompson, col- lector of internal revenue, and one of the Presidents three political referees in Alabama, asking in effect in the name of President Krebs, General Rufus N. Rhodes and others, of the Alabama Fair Association, whether it would avail any thing if strong committee of Birming- hams most representative men should proceed, to Washington for the purp ,se of formally inviting President Roosevelt to be present for at least one day during the progress of the fair, which opens October 18th and closes October 24th.
 Not to Send Committee.
 In the circumstances 1t was determined not to send committee to Washington to walt upon the President.
 It has been otherwise privately ascer- tained that President Roosevelt would have been delighted to accept the :nvl- tation to visit Alabama had it not been for the extraordinary press of offlcia, duties consequent jointly upon his recert prolonged absence from the White House. during the hot season, and the approach ing extra session of Congres, beginning the first Monday in November.
 Meantime all the final work of prepara- ton for the opening of the fair next Thursday Is being hurried to completion, and there cannot now be any doubt that the fair will be one of the very best state shows of its kind yet seen in the south.
 Details Beirg Perfected.
 The fair will be formally opened enc week from today, and every possible detail will by that time be perfected.
 President Krebs and the entire fair man. agement are greatly rejoiced at the cer- tainty of the fairs success as a great and universally attractive exhibition. Those leading citizens of Birmingham in immediate responsibility for the fair are working night and day, and are conscious of great success.

Simon Hines, well known Birming- ham boy, was yesterday sent to Fort Me Pherson near Atlanta, where he will have to face a charge of desertion from the United States army.
 The boy was arrested several days ago by Policeman Richardson on a request of the recruiting officer here, and held in the city jail until yesterday when he was taken to Atlanta by Policeman Rich ardson.
 Young Hines is well known in Birmlng- ham, his father being in the umbrella mending business on Nineteenth street between Third and Fourth avenues The boy had served considerable time in the army when he became dissatisfied and deserted. A description of him had just come to the local recruiting office when Policeman Richardson went there to in- quire about another deserter. He left the office and arrested Hines within a few minutes.

Copeland, who is candidate for the office of county tax collector, has assured the tax payers of the county that if he is elected he will establish an office at Bessemer for the accommoda- tion O. those in that part of the county.

WALTHOUR TO BE
 GREAT ATTRACTION
FAMOUS CYcLlST WILL RIDE THURSDAY OF NEXT WEEK AT STATE FAIR-soME OF HIS PER- SoNAL HABITS.

Bobby walthour, the champion cyclist of the world a southern born boy, and known all over the world as the "Blonde- haired Southerner," who has led all the best riders across the tape, Is to ride on next Thursday afternoon In a race against ten of the fleetest running horses that the cure. A 5000 purse is the stake. He is one of the few cyclists of today who has saved up his winnings for a rainy day. Walthour is married and the proud father of three young Walthours, two girls and Bobby Walthour, Jr. He is only "A years old, but he has been cyclist for years, and in the racing game for the last seven years.
 Walthour has ideas of his own, and one that has won for him a worldwide repu- tation is the fact that under no cir cumstances will he ride on Sunday This point. which he adheres to so strictly, has cost him thousands of dollars, but Walthour says when Sunday comes it is a day to rest, and Sunday morning will always find him up in a church, no mat ter wherever he may be.
 One of the reasons for his great success on the track, where endurance Is so much needed, is that he never drinks liquor of any kind, is always regular in his habits and never dissipates or gambles.
 In the early days of his cycling career he tried Sunday racing, and Walthour says that of all the money he ever won on Sundays he never could save nickle of it. He is firm believer in the fact that to make the money stick 1t must come honestly, and he is always careful now in making contracts that every point must be square.
 When Walthour rides in Birmingham next Thursday afternoon the local pub lie will see one of the cleanest and most gentlemanly athletes in the world, and When he starts against the ten running horses who will relay each other in every mile, they can be assured of seeing a race from start to finish, and one that will be won on merit.
 The Birmingham public will take to him at once for the fact that he is the only southerner in the world today that Is really a champion in his profession. His record of one mile on special built track ntands as the best performance ever wit messed.
 Walthour will be paced by his big motor cycle of sixteen horse power, the largest machine of it's kind in the world. This machine will be on exhibition in the win dows of Loveman, Joseph & Loeb next Tuesday.

RAILROAD WORLD,

A prominent railroad man Is quoted as saying: 'I have been studying into the question of railroad ties and have about come to a conclusion that they the day of the wooden railroad tie is iass drawing to close.
 There are 5,OO0 900 feet of lumber cut in this country every years, which re- duced to cords makes about 30, ,0O0,0O0 cords per ahnum. There are only about 800 OOO,OO0 cords of good marketable lumber left in this country and 1t is we'll seat tered.
 "The railroads of the United States are using 1OOOoo.OOO cross ties per annum, not including ties for new construction, which reduced to cords amounts to aoou: 1OO coo per annum.
 Ut is not surprising therefore that the price of railroad ties Is advancing ahd that some of the leading roads d. obliged to pay as high as 75 cents Cor them IS compared with go cents a few years ago.
 Tt is very evident, therefore, that the railroads of the United States will have to turn to some substitute for wooden ties and steel appears to be the best substi- tute. Steel ties are taking the place of the wooden tie along the entire roadhed of the Pittsburg, Bessemer and Lake Erie which Is controlled by the United States Steel corporation, and they have proved great success for while the first cost may be larger, the life of the tie is very much longer. in Germany and Swtzer- land steel ties have been used by the railroads for some time and are pro- nounced great success.
 The general adoption of steel ties by our railroads would prove of great mo- ment to the United States Steel corpora tion. l believe 1t is only question of time when the manufacture of steel ties will be undertaken upon large scale in this country"
 St. Louis Globe Democrat: Vice Pres ident and General Manager Wincheu of the Frisco and Vice President Beggs re- turned to headquarters yesterday, the former from New York and the latter from Colorado and the West MT.
