TUSCALOOSA.
J. 3. Fair of Birmingham Marries
 Miss Flora Ozment.

Tuscaloosa, February 19.-(Special,)- The residence of Dr. and Mrs. T. J. Ozment was the scene of a pretty we'd ding yesterday afternoon, the contracting parties being Miss Flora Ozment and J. B. Fair of Birmingham. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. John Van Lear. The parlors were beautifully de- corated in white violets and carnations. The bride, who was elegantly attired in a gown of white landsdown, was attended by her sister, Miss Jamie Ozment, while the groom was attended by MT Truman Ozment Mrs. Hugh Hartin of Avondale, sister of the bride, was matron of honor. The bride has beeen a resident of Tus- caloosa since early childhood and has many friends and admirers. The groom is a popular employe of the Southern railway at Birmingham. Immediately after the ceremony they left for At lanta and other points. after which they will be at home at Birmingham.
 A. B. Lacy has resigned his position as stenographer in the government en- gineers office here and has gone to At lanta to stand the civil service examina- tion, after which he will be in regular crder for promotion. His vacancy here has been filled by F. W. Hackney of Bir- mingham.

clause exempting cotton and other az ricultural products and pig iron from taxation in the hands of producer or pur- chaser for prompt shipment, and pig iron for twelve months after production, and he resumed his argument. He read from a decision by Judge Brickell on the in- equality worked by exemptions from tax ation. He said the iron makers had hand ed the farmers a gold brick, and in re- turn the farmers had given them this tax exemption. The farmer saves pennies where the iron maker saves dollars. The thing was wrong in principle. How can we expect to get revenue when this bill pro- vides on it's second page this scheme for the lodging of taxes?
 Mr. Benners opposed the motion to strike out the exemption. He said it was put there when the iron makers were in bad fix, with iron at S6 per ton and millions of dollars worth piled up in the yards, which they could not sell. Now if the farmers want to repeal the exemp- tion, he could say for the Iron makers that they would go along with the farm CTS There is no iron now to be taxed for 1t is sold as fast as made
 MT. Callahan spoke for the London amendment. He could see no reason for singling out cotton and farm products and pig iron. Why not put on lumber and live stock and ore and everything else in the hands of the producer? There was no justice in this exemption nor in any such exemption.
 MT. Simpson defended tAe exemption as to farmers. A mans running bank ae- count is not taxed because it is not a hoard. Neither ought the farmers cotton in a warehouse or corn in his crib be taxed. It is not a hoard not property laid by but merely held there for use in making his next crop and for his daily supplies.
 The amendment was lost by vote of 27 to 46, and MT London gave notice that he would renew it in the house, the pro- ceedings being then in committee of the whole.
 MT. London sought to amend by elimi- hating typewriters from the articles add ed by the bill to the tax lists on the ground that they are largely owned by poor girls who have nothing else, but II was voted down, 3S to 22. MT. Lusk pro posed an amendment that in lieu or all the specified articles exempt that every man have exemptions of $500, but this was lost The committee was discussing n clause in the bill providing that where A corporation has Alabama or United States bonds which are exempt from tax ation. they shall be deducted from the value of their stock as assessed Tor tax ation. It was explained that this was put in for the protection of two lhsut-

THINK IT OVER.
Something You Can See in Any Res
 taurant or Cafe.

A physician puts the query: Have you never noticed in any large restaurant at lunch or dinner time the large number of hearty, vigorous old men at the tables; men whose ages run from 60 to 80 years; many of them bald and all perhaps gray, but none of them feeble or senile?
 Perhaps the spectacle is so common as to have escaped your observation or com ment. but nevertheless 1t is an object les son which means something.
 If you will notice what these hearty old fellows are eating you will observe that they are not munching bran crackers nor gingerly picking their way through a menu card of new fangled health foods; on the contrary they seem 10 prefer a juicy roast of beef, a properly turned loin of mutton, and even the deadly broiled lobster is not altogether ignored.
 The point of all this is that a vigorous old age depends upon good digestion and plenty of wholesome food and not upon dieting and an endeavor to live upon bran crackers.
 There is certain class of food cranls who seem to believe that meat, coffee and many other good things are rank poisons, but these cadaverous, sickly looking individuals are a walking con- demnation of their own theories.
 The matter in a nutshell is that If the stomach secreteS the natural digestive juices in sufficient quantity any whole some food will be promptly digested; if the stomach does not do so. and certain foods cause distress one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal will remove all difficulty because they supply just what every weak stom- ach lacks. pepsin. hydro-chloric acid diastase and nuX.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act upon the bowels and in fact are not strict ly a medicine, as they act almost entirely upon the food eaten, digesting 1t thor oughly and thus give a much needed rest and giving an appetite for the next meal.
 Of people who travel nine out of ten use Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, Knowing them to be perfectly safe to use at any time and also having found out by ex- Derience that they are a safeguard against indigestion in any form, and eat ing as they have to, at all hours and all kinds of food, the travelling public for years have pinned their faith to Stuart S Tablets.
 All druggists sell them at 50 cents for full sized packages and any druggist from Maine to California, if his opinion were asked. will say that Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets is the most popular and successful remedy for any stomach trouble.

THE HOUSE.

The house this morning haC only two matters before it, the revenue bill and the Starr-Waddell compromise railroad bill. The former went over as unfinished business, and the latter was passed by the sweeping majority of S1 to 12.
 It is altogether likely that the real strength of the opposition to the railroad bill was about thirty, but the gentlemen saw use in going up against a brick wall. Under any circumstances the real majority for the bill was more than two to one.
 There was a brief struggle after roll call as to which had the right of way, the revenue or railroad bill and it was com promised by MT. Benners' motion that the revenue bill be considered till 1:30 and then the railroad bill be taken up. There was promise that it would not take long to dispose of it.
