BIRMINGHAM HAS
 A NEW INDUSTRY
ELECTRo-TYPE AND ENGRAVING COMPANY ESTABLISHES PLANT HERE AND IS DOING A THRIVING BUSINESS.

One of the newest indications of Bir- manufacturing city Is the establishment of an electro-plating and engraving plant. Few people In Biringham know that such an institution is In existence and many who are thus uninformed have been send ing work to Cincinnati and other cities n the north when they could have had it done right here at home at the same price. In fact by deducting the expense of ship ping the cost would have been cheaper
 The plant is located on Morris avenue in the same building with the Dispatch Printing company and Is fitted out with modern machinery. Every class of eleo- tro-plating can be done at this plant and since it began business the men in charge have had more work than can be conyeni- ently handled. There Is not another in- dustry of this kind nearer Birmingham than Cincinnati.
 c. w. Dean, who for several years has been employed In the government printing office at Washington saw the advantages offered by Birmingham and with his son came here and established the Dixie Elec- trotype and Engraving company. He now employs three men and another expcrs workman is expected in few days from New York. MT. Dean is greatly pleased with the prospects for his business and will soon be able to handle a large amount of work The establishment of the plant meant an outlay of nearly $4000 for ma- chinery alone In this plant some of the most modern machinery in the country can be seen.
 Probably few persons in Birmingham are acquainted with the process of elee- tro-platng First definition of an elec- troplate would likely be interesting. It s type metal printing cut covered with a layer of hard copper and can be used indefinitely for printing. The ordinary cut wears out and becomes dim in time and a stronger cut was found necessary. The solution of this trouble proved to be the electrotype. The process of making an electrotype cut is simple. An impress sion is taken In wax from the type forms which are furnished by the printing es- establishments. The wax surface con- taining the impression is then covered with pulyerized plumbago so as to give 1t metallic face. This Is then suspend ed in an electric bath which contains a solution of copper and sulphurio acid. The copper solution adheres to the metal face of the wax form, through the force of the electric current in metal form. In an hour and thirty minutes it forms a thin shell over the face of the wax. This shell of copper is five one-thousandths of an inch thick. The thin copper sheet is then placed in mold and hot metal is poured over the back to give sufficient foundation for printing. The cuts then go through the several processes which finally bring them into commercial shape.
 MT. Dean is president of the new com pany and his son, J. K. Dean, is man. ager.

 For tax assessor Frank A Hewitt has no opposition.
 For clerk of the law division of the circuit court W. K. McAdory has no opposition

 In the contest for coroner w. D. Paris. the present incumbent, seeks reelection and he has something like twenty oppo- nents. The entry sheet has not closed and the names of the aspirants are diff ficult to obtain.
 All of the present members of the board of revenue, except Capt. A. J. Tarrant, are candidates for reelection and so far something like thirty others have an nounced themselves in opposition. A complete roster of these candidates Is exceedingly difficult to secure as the list Is growing rapidly every day The pres ent members are Hugh McGeever, H. w. Crook. w. H. Wilson and J. K. P. Laird. Captain Tarrant is president
 All of the candidates have become re- concied to the change in the date of the primary They recognize the necessity for such action and Chairman Thomp- son Is very much pleased at the scarcity of complaints

A STRIKING EXHIBIT Of Roberts ( Son Which Points q
 Moral.

Today in the large windows of Roberts e Sons, 1872 Third avenue, may be seen q striking exhibit consisting of twenty volumes of official records of the county, which have just been bound by this con- cern.
 The books include records of deeds final records. records of mortgages, etc., etc, and are bound in superb style, and above the books appear piacards reading: The people for whom these books were made believe in keeping their orders at home rather than send to Nashville or St. Louis.' This is another evidence of the community spirit and interest man ifested by the board of revenue for whom most of the books are made and might well be emulated by those business men who live on of Birmingham people and yet send their money out of town to en- rich the coffers of other merchants else where.
 Some time ago, 1t will be remembered Roberts & Son made and exhibited in their window the largest book ever bound in the south, being a plat book over five feet long, one foot thick and above four feet wide. This concern has the only 1ithographing plant. also the oldest and largest printing. book-making and sta- tionery house in the state and Birming- ham Is proud of the growth of such an industry. which weekly distributes nearly 5000 in pay rolls. sss

WILHELM SIGNED
 BY BOSTON CLUB
HE HAS NEVER SECURED A RE-. LEASE FROM BlRM MINGHAM AND SLAGToWN MANAGEMENT MAY CONTEST THE CASE.

Irwin Wilhelm. the former crack pitch CT of the Coal Barons, has been signed by the Boston National league club, and ] will probably play in fast company next season. Manager Buckenberger of Boston thinks that he can develop a star out of Wilhelm, and that he will be among the leaders in the National league. It will be remembered that Wilhelm left Birmingham without securing his re- lease, and that he was reserved by the local management for next season. Under the laws of baseball, Boston had no right to sign Wilhelm without negotiating with the Birmingham club or drafting him during the drafting period which ex- pired some time ago.
 Birmingham will likely contest the case
 and Boston may yet lose the services of this crack twirler unless something is done to satisfy the Slagtown management Since all of the leagues have come to a
 definite understanding the W..hem case
 may developYinto test trial of the rights
 of the minor league clubs.
 In the meantime Manager O Brien Is go-
 ing right along getting up team for next
 season, but he announces that he will not
 give out list of his players until the
 lineup is complete.
 Harry Vaughan will probably be en-
 gagged to coach the Auburn college team
 this spring, and if a contract is signed he
 will come south in February. It will be
 necessary for him to be in Birmingham
 by March 15. as the Coal Barons are
 scheduled to play the New York club on
 that day.

INVESTIGATION IS
 MADE BY CORONER
CORONER PARIS SAYS POLICEMEN WERE JUSTIFIED IN KILLING NEGRO-GARRIS DIED FROM HEART FAILURE.

Coroner Paris yesterday made investi- cations into the causes of the death of Fred Garris, who was found dead in room at 1S22d First avenue yesterday morning, and later gave as his opnion that death was due to heart failure.
 The coroner also investigated the death of Will Wilhite, the negro who was shot and killed by Policemen Disheroon and Baker Friday night in house at First alley and Twenty-sixth street Coroner Paris has decided that the killing was justifable. and states that it was a won der that the negro did not shoot and kill one of the policemen
 In Coroner Paris opinion the only thing that preventeC che negro shooting one of the policemen was that he was out of the house when they entered. The negro had been sent for bottle of whisky and returned just after Police man Baker had entered the back door. The negro did not have his pistol for this reason. ts

BIRMINGHAM MAN MAKES
 FISHING RECORD IN HAWAII

ping from the leading paper of Honolulu. The name of the paper is not obtainabie and if it were the reader could not pro- nounce it. Following is an extract from the article describing the fishing regatta in which the Birmingham man took an active part
 "On Hawaiis last regatta day the fishing tournament ended with much disappoint- ment to the crack fishermen of the island of Oahu The fish were not running as plentifully as of yore, and only fair catch rewarded the efforts of the disciples of Isaac Walton. The best fishermen from the other islands participated in the con- test and the largest catch was made by A. G. Newlands of the Hawaii Fishing an employe of the Gazette Publishing company. W. w. Hudson, who although a stranger to these waters showed some of the oldest anglers how to cast the fes- tive fly and entrap the wary trout. Mir. Hudson is from the southern states, and his insignia on entering the contest was put down as representing the Cahaba club of Birmingham, Ala Considering the fact that he had never fished in these waters before his catch was a remarkable one. He casts in an entirely different manner from the local fishermen and many of them have been learned some new wrinkles. He says that the 'Cahaba club of which he is an ex-member, as well as ex-president, was once a famous fishing aggregation, and that if he had some of it's picked members here he would challenge the same number of the best fishermen in these islands. While he did not win the prize. the Cahaba club was splendidly represented"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-01-10

Many cities in the south have boasted of having old citizens living in various countries and claiming to have had them on hand to witness disasters that have shocked the world but few of them can lay claim to a citizen who has startled the natives of the Hawaiian Islands by his skill as a fisherman and came near capturing the championship of the island of Oahu.
 This man was none other than w. w. Hudson, who for years lived in Birming- city For a long time MT. Hudson worked on the Age-Herald as a compositor and has the reputation of being one of the most accurate linotype machine men in the United States He went to Honolulu some time since and is at work on the leading paper of that city.
 MT. Hudson entered the annual fishing regatta there under adverse conditions, but came out with flying colors. He was unfamiliar with the various chan nels and in fact, was unused to fishing in the ocean. His boat was also badly managed, but with all these circum- stances against him he caught 105 fish in two hours, while the champion, who was next to him. landed only 103. The prize Is awarded according to weight and MT. Hudson's string was out-weighed just three pounds. After the contest his opponent told him that he had held the championshiptfor twenty years and would not have lost for $500. MT Hudson en- tered as representative of the Cahaba club of Birmingham, a club composed of H. D. Odom, F. F Ransom and several other well known anglers.
 In a very interesting letter written to H. D. Odom. MT. Hudson encloses a clip

IN M EMORIAM.
Tribute to a Faithful Old Negro Ser
 want.

The death of Garland Shoot on January 5, at St. vincent's hospital brings sad ness and regret to many hearts of this community. Coming to Birmingham about twenty years ago, he soon made his way to the front as an honest faith full workman. From an acquaintance of sixteen years, I can speak of his high sense of justice and true character. He. like some of the best Caucasian blood. held character above gold. He was re- spected by our prominent citizens whom he called "his friends" Many of the beautiful lawns bespeak his grading and sodding.
 So full of kindness was he, he could not stoop to do a wrong, but always gave honest labor to his masters. Know ing that there are few of his kind living, I feel like those who knew him join me in paying this simple tribute to his mem ory. His life's work. done humanely, will be his only monument. He is no more, and we grieve that he is gone.
