DIED FROM POISON.
Not Known if Suicide Was Intentional
Or NOT

Chandler, o. T., March 24.-Last Friday
afternoon, at her home four miles north
west of this city, Miss Lille Cash, 2S
years of age, died as the result of car
bolic acid poisoning.
No one seems to know just how or when
she took the poison or whether it was
taken through mistake or suicidal intent.
She had not been in very good health,
but was able to go about and seemed in
her usual spirits and heaI,n. She took
a bath and dressed herself carefully in
clean clothes, after which sen laid down
on a couch. Nothing was thought of
this. as she frequently did so, and no
thought was had of any trouble until
some time after lying down it was noticed
that she was breathing in peculiar man
ner. An examination disclosed the fact
that she was speechless, her tongue and
throat seeming paralyzed.

TELEPHONE SHOCK
 CAUSES LAW SUIT
MISS EMMA c. BLAIR ASKS $10,000 DAMAGES FOR INJURIES RE- CEIvED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ANSWER TELEPHONE CALL.

A case is on trial in the circuit court before Judge Coleman which will deter mine in a measure what 1t is worth to be shocked by telephone.
 Miss Emma c. Blair picked up her tel ephone in the Florence hotel In April, 1902 to answer a call that had been made and received a shock which she maintains caused her to break down completely, to suffer such a nervous prostration that she was compelled to take to her bed for many weeks.
 Part of the time she was at the hotel part of the time at St. Vincent's hospital and for several weeks was at a santa rum in Battle Creek, Mich.
 Her bill of complaint Is against the Peoples Home Telephone company as 1t was the Peoples telephone that is said to have given the shock. She is suing to recover sl0OOO damages for the injuries sustained at that time.
 On the stand yesterday she stated that she had never completely recovered from the effects and that she had not been able to attend to her work
 Miss Blair is well known in the city as she conducted a stenographlc bureau in the Florence hotel for a long time. It was while she was attending to her duties in her office that the shock is alleged to have been received.
 The case will probably be finished to-

MILITARY MEN ARE
 MUCH SURPRISED
HAD EXPECTED A DECISIVE MOVE ON PART OF THE GOVERNOR, BUT DID NOT EXPECT A MUS- TER OUT.

Military men throughout the state were very much surprised yesterday when the announcement appeared in the Age-Her- aid that the Third regiment would prob- ably be mustered out of the Alabama National Guard.
 The consensus of opinion seems to be that this would be about the best way to settle the wrangle which it is said, has done so much to injure the regiment during the past three years. Many have expressed themselves as being in favor of such an action on the part of the gov ernor.
 While local military men will not ex- press an opinion publicly on the matter, they have discussed 1t thoroughly among themselves. They have stated that it lies in the power of the governor to mus ter out the entire regiment. officers and men, and then later to issue an order to muster three companies back into the service to be drafted into the First and Second regiments, three companies of which are said to be scheduled to be dropped.
 Military men throughout the state have been looking for some definite &C., ton on the part of the governor, but they were surprised at the turn that now seems possible. There is much spec ulation as to which companies will be mustered back into the service, but 1t is the opinion of thosa well informed that Decatur, Anniston and one of the Br- mingham companies will be chosen.
 No one connected with the state troops in this part of the state had any idea that such action as this would be taken, but all were prepared for some decisive move, probably the announcement that Governor Jelks had declared Colonel Hig- don's commission out of date.

CONTEMPT CHARGES
 ARE NOT SUSTAINED
JUDGE CARMICHAEL RENDERS A DEGREE DIMINISHING THE UNION
 MINERS CHARGED WITH cAus- ING RoUBLE AT VIRGINIA CITY.

Chancellor J. c. Carmichael rendered a decree yesterday in the contempt pro- ceedings growing out of the recent trou- bles between certain miners at Virginia City and the Alabama Steel and Wire company.
 All of the respondents except three were discharged and these three were held guilty of technical trespass and taxed 2.5O each to cover in part the costs Of the proceedings.
 Some time ago Alexander Dunlap and others, among whom was Ed. Flynn, president of the Alabama United Mine Workers. wer cited to appear before the court and show cause why they should not be punished for contempt of court in violating an injunction of the court which forbade certain union miners from tres passing on the property of the Alabama Steel and Wire company at Virginia City.
 It was alleged that the respondents con- s1fed to surreptitiously, In conjunction with an official of the complaint, who the respondents, to get miners into the employ of the complainant and have them work up sentiment to shut down the mines upon a certain day previously agreed upon.
 The chancellor held that the evidence was so conflicting as to cause a reason- able doubt of the guilt of the respondents.

TEXT BOOK CASE
 IN HIGHER COURT
DR. DICKINSON, THROUGH HIS AT TORNEY, FILES APPEAL TO THE SUPREME COURT FOR A RULING
 ON coNsTITUTIoNALITY OF ACT

A. J. Dickinson, through his attorney, A. o. Lane, filed an appeal to the supreme court In the matter of his petition for writ of mandamus against J. B. Cunning ham, principal of the Birmingham High school.
 Judge c. A. Senn of the city court rem dered a decree on Monday denying the petition of Dr. Dickinson. The case Is pretty we'll understood in Birmingham and is virtually test of the new uniform text book law.
 Alfred Dickinson, young son of the petitioner, was denied the right by the respondent to attend the Birmingham High school until he had procured books bearing the official state stamp as re- quired by law. The young man had books which were In every way identical with those required except that they did not bear the stamp showing that they had come from the state depository
 The supreme court will meet next Tues day to take cases from the sixth division and as this is a preferred case 1t is rendered soon.
 Its action will be awaited with interest because 1t Is the first real attack that has been made upon the constltutionallty of the uniform text book law enacted by the recent legislature.

ILLINOIS CENTRAL
 BUILDING NEW LINE
THIS Is TAKEN TO MEAN A PLAN TO ENTER BIRMINGHAM OVER THE FRISCO SYSTEM-A RAIL ROAD MAN TALKS.

Regarding the plans of the Illinois cen traI Railroad company, a railroad man said yesterday:
 "In Memphis it Is accepted as iact that the Mobile, Jackson and Kansas Clty railroad Is controlled if not entirely own ed by the Illinois Central company rms road is now being operated between Mo- bile and Newton, Miss, where 1t IS cross ed by the Alabama Great Southern. From that point to New Albany the grade IS finished and steel is being laid
 From Pontotoc to Middleboro the old Gulf and Chicago railroad, now part or the Mobile, Jackson and Kansas City is a narrow gauge, which is now being made a standard gauge. From Middle boro to Baldwin, which Is 20 miles north of Jackson on the Illinois Central rail- road, is a stretch of country which has been surveyed by the Mobile and Kansas City line, and recently, so it has been stated, a course for construction has been finally located and approved and work is to begin at once.
 "It is generally accepted in Memphis" the railroad man continued, that the line from Bolivar to Middleton when com pleted will be the connecting link for the Illinois Central from the north into Bir- mingham, as by this means direct route from Jackson, Tenn, to New Albany, Miss would be established from which point the Illinois Central would use the tracks of the Frisco System into this city.
 There seems to be no doubt but that the Frisco and the Illinois Central have made traffic arrangements and the ener- BY displayed on the north end of the Mo bile, Jackson and Kansas City, the loca- tion of the survey. and the fact that tons of steel is being shipped from Memphis to New Albany seems to have renewed the old rumor, among railroad men at least, that within a few months the Illi- nois Central will be running into Bir- mingham.'
