$26,OOO FIRE AT ELBA
SEVERAL BUILDINGS EATEN UF
 BY THE FLAMES.
The Town is Without a System of Water Works and the Bucket Brigade Could Not Cope
 With Blaze.

Elba, July 20.-(Speciall ll-Saturday night at Il o'clock the alarm of fire was sound ed and the rapidly gathering throng found that Blue Bros drug store was ablaze The town has no fire protection and there was no hope of saving the store of Blue Bros. or that of J. W. Wise immediately adjoining. The bucket brigade made va liant efforts to save the building Of the First Bank of Elba, but the flames rap idly spread to the bank building ana thence to the store of S. N. Rowe; here the bucket brigade succeeded in checkine the fire The burned buildings were all single story brick structures except the bank. which was q two story brick build ing. The losses and insurance was ap- proximately as follows:
 8. N. Rowe. stock of general mercnan- dise loss $500; insurance s6OOO.
 Blue Bros. drug stock, loss, A.OOO; in' surance. $2,S00.
 J. w. Wise, stock of general merchan- disc loss s6.OO0; insurance. A,oOO.
 First Bank of Elba, building and fix lures. loss 5000; insurance. 2.sJO.
 Judge F. Nj. Rushing Blue store and Wise store. loss S4,00o; insurancs S.S5O.
 J. C. Henderson Rowe stSVe house, loss SI 800; insurance not known.
 Jake and Ed Wise and W. D. Hutchin- son. who had furnished dwelling apart rnents in the second floor of the bank lost their household effects and had no insurance.
 The bank is arranging to rebuild The bank was open for business at the usual time Monday morning in temporary quar- ters. It is more than likely that new lot will be secured and an up-to-date stone and pressed brick building built by the bank. and the old bank building re- built for mercantile business.
 Judge F. NJ. Rushing announces that he will at once rebuild his two buildings that were burned J. C. Henderson of Troy. is at Tate Springs, and your core spondent can not learn whether he had insurance on the Rowe building or Wheth- CT he will rebuild.
 W. M. Tucker will begin building an up-to+date freproof drug store in fe" days.
 The large amount of brick work on the new Court House has caused a dearth of brick masons here. and the brick-work in rebuilding the burned stores and new buildings will increase the demand for masons.

period from April 1st, 1900. to June 90. i903 In that time he had handled So4S,- l07 45, all of which had been properly ac- counted for. The Stewards vouchers were checked over and found to be cor rect
 The books of W. c. Perkins, who was steward from April 1st, 1900, to December Sist ls0l were examined, MT. Rutledse stating that the officer had been dfligent in the performance of his duty. The prices paid by the Steward for supplies at the hospital appeared to the Examiner to be fair and reasonable.
 The commendation given Steward Per kins was shared bys W. c. Harris. who was Steward from January 1st, ij02, to June 30th 1903. These Stewards had vouchers exceeding 6,7oo, and all had been properly filed.
 The Examiners observation upon the general conduct of the hospital IS as follows.
 An inspection of the Register of the Hospitals for the period covered by this report shows that the per capita for pa- tients from April lst, 1900, to April lst. 1902. inclusive, was ss.l0 per week; from July l&t, 1902. to January lst, 1898. the per capita was s2.25 per week. and for the quarters ending April lst, 19o9 and June oJtH' lSoo, the per capitd was. oz.OJ per week. This increase was ordered by the Board of Trustees and was deemed necessary for the purpose of permanent Improvements. On July 30th 1903. there were in the hospitals at Tuscaloosa and Mt. Vernon. 1,593 indigent. and criminal patients, as shown from an inspection of the register
 The management of this worthy insti- tuition appears to be in good hands. and the officers and subo.dinates fully inter- ested in its welfare. Like all good in- stitut!ons where there Is so much to commend, there are some things needing correction, but these appear to be more attributable to lax administration of the law and to defects in existing laws than to faulty management
 The buildings and property of these hospitals represent an investment of the State of about S5g0,000. Tie only insur- ance carried is for s1o00co on the property in Tuscaloosa. think that additional pol icies for S50.c00 each on the property To- cated at Tuscaloosa and at Mt. Vernon should be taken out, and If necessary, a special appropriation should cover the premium paid for this insurance.
