An Historic Billiard Table.

There is a billiard table in London at the present moment that can boast of Q lifetime of two centuries and long ac- quaintance with men who have made his tory. It belonged originally to Louis XIV, passed into the possession of Napoleon l. and now. in Its old age, has come into the hands of Messrs, Orme & Sons, and is on exhibition in Soho Square. This cele- brated table is smaller than an English table. The body of the table is a block of oak weighing 10000 pounds. cvered with a cloth of electric blue. The frame of the table Is of rsewood and the six pockets perhaps the mst striking feature of the table-are reproductions in bronze of queer. hideous old gargoyles. When the ball falls into the pocket the lower jaw of the gargyle drops, and the ball is found in its mouth. It is a clever piece of ancient mechanism.

AGAINST BIRMINGHAM
SUPREME COURT HANDS DOWN
 AN OPINION.
William M. Land May Recover $500 Each Year For Pollution of Val
 ley Creek By Sanitary Ser
 verage System of City.

Serious difficulties were placed before the Mayor and Board of Aldermen of Birmingham yesterday by the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of the Mayor and Board of Aldermen of Birm- ingham against William M. Land.
 The court decided that owners of land along Valley Creek below the outlet of the Birmingham sewerage system were entitled to recover damages for the paliu- tion of the stream and It's depreciation of the value of adjacent land. The court awarded MT. Land $500 for the injury done his land during period of one year. The court held that MT. Land could each year enter suit for damage done his property along Valley Creek.
 The sanitation problem has been seri- GUS one for Birmingham's municipal government The present system empties into Valley Creek. Since 1t was con- structed the city has had trouble with the owners of land along the creek. They have protested against the sewerage sys- tem's outlet and declared it to be a nuisance They have gone beyond pro- tests and several suits have been filed against the city of Birmingham to test tho right of the city to construct sewer . emptying into Valley Creek.
 N The suit of Mir. Land of this nature was frjed in the City Court of Birmingham. Xn6 Clky HI IHlS Sull COhlCHucO th0e II had the statutory right to construct the sewerage system with its outlet into Val ley Creek.
 The plaintiff in the suit alleged that the sewerage had polluted the waters of Val ley Creek for more than a mile below the outlet. The pollution of the water 1t was alleged had resulted in depreciation of the value of the land. The lower court held in favor of the plaintiff.
 This decision was affirmed by the Supreme Court in an opinion prepared by MT. Chief Justice Mcclellan. The opinion held among other things that "the fact that the city of Birmingham hah statutory authority to construct sewer emptying into Valley Creek upon the con- demnation of lands taken or injured in it's construction and use, Is not of inn portance since the lands here injured have not been condemned. The nuisance has been none the less nuisance because of the statutory powers referred to. the right to exercise power in respect to this land

GOVERNOR GETS BACK
DID NOT REMAIN IN TUsCA- LoOSA FOR CLOSING
 EXERCISES.
He Says Board of Trustees Found University in Satisfactory Condition-May Realize Big
 Sum on Lands.

Governor Jelks returned yesterday af- ternoon from Tuscaloosa, where he att tended a meeting of the Board of Trus- tees of the State University. He was unable to remain to the concluding com mencement exercises, having to return to Mo ntgome-y on account of important State business.
 The Governor expressed himself as well pleased with the affairs at the Univer- sity. The average attendance for the year has been larger than any in recent years. The conduct of the University has been altogether satisfactory and its spirit has been highly commended. No friction of any nature was apparent and the Board or Trustees mad harmonious and satisfactory meeting.
 The most important question, perhaps, which came before the Board was the es- tabifshment of a summer school at the University. The summer school project met with favor in the Board, but as yet nothing definite has been determined upon. The question of its cost was the only obstacle that the Board found 70 initiate against it's establishment. It Is regarded as very probable that sooner or later the summer schoo. will be estab- lished
 The Board was much gratified at a report upon the value of its mining lands. The report was made by Assistant Examiner of Pubic Accounts J. T. Rut- ledge after a careful examination. It is understood that MT. Rutledge reported that the University was assured of a generous return from some of its mining lands. It is said that the Univers ty would ultimately receive from mines which had been recently leased $250, ,0OO.
 When the Governor left Tuscaloosa, the Board of Trustees had not completed all the work before it.
 Hon. l. w. Hili State Superintendent Of Education. who accompanied the Gov erDor to Tuscaloosa. remained there for the commencement exercises.
