In Alameda county the salary

In Alameda county the salary
method of compensating township
officers has been tried, and found
wanting. The tendency of this
method is to render the officers in
attentive and careless. Their pay
is the same regardless of the amount
of business transacted. A cry has
been raised that officials have been
off in neighboring counties engaged
in other business, drawing their sal
aries with becoming regularity at
the same time. The arrangement is
not voted success, nor in keeping
with the public welfare. An inves-
tigation is talked of to sHt the ir-
regularities to the bedrock.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inAamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

SENT TO CRIMINAL COURT.
Two White Men Bound over-0rand
 Larceny and Affrsy.

Two white men were yesterday bound over to the Criminal court on bonds of $500 each, and third took an appeal from a fine of $50 which was imposed by Judge Feagln. He also made bond of $500 to carry the case to the higher court.
 John Graffors, a Greek, was one of the men. He was accused of grand larceny of a s5 bill from R. c. Campbell. Jim Parrish, another Greek. was bound over on a charge of affray in connection with the same case, and John Alexander took an appeal from a fine for the same trou- ble.
 From the evidence in court Campbell bought something of Graffors, who runs a stand on First avenue between Eigh- teenth and Nineteenth streets. and paid him with $50 bill. Graffors went to get the bill changed and never returned with the change. This was about two weeks ago, and yesterday Campbell returned to the stand, to get his money. and Parrish and Alexander jumped on him and beat him up very badly. They seriously injur- ed his back, cut his arm with poker and mutilated him in other ways.
 Bonds were made by all three of the men.

GREATER BIRMINGHAM.
Committees of Commercial Club and
 Board of Trade to Meet.

A joint meeting of the mayor and board of aldermen and the committees of the Commercial club and the Board of Trade has been called for Friday afternoon at o'clock to devise means of securing Greater Birmingham. Some definite steps will be taken to commence an active campaign looking to increasing the city limits.
 Several meetings were held some time back, but the matter seemed to have dropped. There is some opposition to city extension, but both the Board of Trade and the Commercial club have passed resolutions indorsing the movement
 The principal opposition was from men owning industrial plants in the district which the city proposes to get to come within her limits. The resolutions pro- vide that certain kinds of industries are to be exempt from taxation for the next ten years. and this has quieted much of the opposition.

Governor Frazier was in the Chatta- nooga delegation as one of It's spokes- men,"
 The general conference is the supreme legislative body of the Southern Meth odist church. It meets only once in four years. The last meeting was held in Dallas year ago thls month. It has never met in Birmingham and only once has 1t met in Alabama.
 The general conference brings together hundreds of delegates and a large num- ber of visitors and excursionists. It re- mains in session between three and four weeks Before Dr. Simpson went to Nashville to appear before the commit- tee he and Hervey W. Laird. treasurer of the First Methodist church, made a canvass of the hotels and found that the general conference could be accommo- dated. even with present conditions; and in 1906 Birmingham. will probably have more hotels.
 R. S. Munger was the first person In Birmingham to receive the news from Nashville. Dr. Simpson sent him tele- gram. The good word spread rapidly in Methodist circles and there was great re- joicing.

FIRE YESTERDAY MORNING.
Four Two-story Houses on South
 Twenty-flfth Street Damaged.

Four two-story houses were damaged yesterday morning about 7:50 o'clock by a fire which caused loss of about $12OO to the buildings and something less to the furniture in them. Each of the build ings is covered by 5000 insurance policy. which will amply make good the losses. None of the furniture was insured
 The fire originated in the residence of w. M. Ellington, at 6O2 south Twenty fifth street. It gained considerable head way and by the time the department ar rived the flames had spread to the resi- dences of T. w. Roe and w. c. Conner. which are on either side of the house where the fire first caught.
 The department was at the fire about two hours, as the wind was blowing briskly and every effort was being made to prevent the flames from spreading fur ther.

MINISTRIES WERE
 A GREAT SUCCESS
House Was Filled With People. Who Were Really Amused
WSAYAS MADE A HIT
Songs and Jokes Are Turned Loose on the Public By the Travelling Men and Their Grip
 Toters."

The line of samples delivered by the T. P. As last night at the Jefferson theatre was one of the best that has ever been displayed In Birmingham by amateurs In fact, some parts of it were good enough for the "shure nough'' stage and excelled many of the stunts which have been presented by people who make act ing their profession.
 One of the greatest virtues of the show was It's shortness. At no time did the work drag heavily, which was a change for the better which might we'll be fol- lowed by professionals in the future.
 "visayas" proved to be the best card of the evening. The work of George simmes and Harry Spencer. the former the mechanical doll and the latter the manager. was unusually good and was equal to similar acts which have been seen here In vaudeville.
 Many new jokes were sprung. They were snappy and went with more force than Is usual with debutantes in comedy. Some were local, while others came from some drummer's pack. They were not bad.
 The singing was very good. Solos, duets and quartettes filled in many an inter- mission. and added to the performances. The programme included a solo by T. Y. Boardman, one by Joe Smith, a duet by c. P. Orr and Frank P. O'Brien. a solo by Sidney Lazarus and one by Charles Bell. The quartette was also good. The bone speciality of Harpin Lum was worthy of T-aal minstrel man" The second part ii uded the bar work of Messrs House. Kissinger, Pierce and Robinson, who were very good.
 The darktown mandolin club serenade was a feature. The players were Messrs. Spiro, House. Henderson and Lawson James A. Dougherty proved an entertain tertaining monologuist.
 Financially the show was a great suc- cess. The T. P. As must have realized something over 5000 from the sale of tickets. as every seat on the first floor was filled, and a large portion of the bal cony was occupied
