Safeguard Agatnst Acc,dsnt

The best safeguard against accident is
to use good judgement in directing every
act. But, accidents will often occur in
spite OF every every effort to prevent
them. The best safeguard against injury
resulting from accidents is Elliott's Emulsi-

accident and Emergency Liniment ever
made and is the most satisfactory Linimen.

AFTER
FARLEY'S SCALP
E. E. FARLEY is CHARGED WITH
RINGING THE MARE AlMLESS
FOR SARAH BLACK AT DETROIT
LAST JUNE.

New Orleans, March 19-Witneses in
the case of e. f. Farley the turfman,
charged with ringing the race mare Aim
less for Sarah Black at Detroit last June,
left here today for Detroit There were
thirty In the party, among them being
some of the most prominent turfmen on
the western tracks.
The Western Jockey club is pushing the
case against Farley and employed a num-
Der of detectives in different portions of
the country to locate Sarah Black The
mare was finally found on a plantation
fifteen miles outside of New Iberia, La
Sarah Black was sold here to local
horse trading firm during the spring of
1902. She was then resold to party re-
siding near New Iberia. She was ship
ped to the plantation and has not been
raced since.
Farley is the tIirfman who attempted
to close up racing in Chicago last fall.
He spent In the neighborhood of 80 900
in employing lawyers and eonstabes to
have the different Chicago race courses
raided but failed in his attempt. Farley
Is now broke, but his friends have en-
ployed legal talent to defend him.

THE JUDCESHIP OF
THE INFERIOR COURT

To the Editor of the Age-Herald:
| notice in " ednesdays issue Of the
Birmingham Ledger an article discussing
the status of the candidates for the judges
of the inferior court of Birmingham, and
deciding the result of the election, stating
that Mr.. Benners and Mr. Alternately
would be reelected by good majorities, on
account of this being their first term. If
that was true it seems to be very persua-
sve in behalf of these two gentlemen,
and evidently that was the intention and
purpose Of the article, to bun the STOCK
of these two gentlemen. The prophet
should have stated all the facts instead
of stating their first term,a and let us all
have fair sailing.
The facts are too well known in Biz
mingham to need to be published as in
formation But as the article is so mis-
leading and partial it will not be out of
place to review some facts.
THESE gentlemen have held and exer-
cised the offices of justices of the peace
in these two precincts, q and g. for
quite number of years. receiving the
cost and fees allowed by law to justices.
But from some unknown cause and in
1uence the last legislature abolished the
name of Justice of the peace of these two
precincts, q and 81. and substituted in
lieu thereof the name judges for these
two precincts, and changed their pay from
fees and cost of justices, and made these
two same offices now called judges sal
aired offices having the same jurisdiction
as before and no more, and as other JUS
tees have. Both now draw salaries out
of the county treasury instead or costs
as before The article does not even hint
at the fact that Mr.. Benners and Mr.,
Alternately have been holding these same
offices under the name of justices of the
peace for many years, and when the act
changing the name from justice to Judge
and pay from cost to salary, was passeu'
and before the people were aware the
thing had been done or the reason 1t was
done. they at once by appointment of the
governor recaptured their old places ana
instead OF being as the article states "hrst
termers" they are successive, continuous
termers and the thing looks much IKE
suit made to order. D. ii. SAVA1E.

POLICE AFFAIRS ARE
IN VERY BAD SHAPE
CAPTAIN Piper Reports Adversely on
Conditions of the Force
In Chicago.

Chicago. March 19.-"rhere is practical
1v M disciuline and the condition could
hardly he worse" with these words to-
day Capt. Alexander Piper, u 5. A. ire
tired) former deputy commissioner OF the
New York police department VINO mas
been in Chicago for seven weeks inVesti-
eating the Chicago police force, eectri-
fed the members OF the city club. He
was making a report of his investigation
which was begun at the instance OF the
club as a result Of the alleged undue
prevalence of crime in Chicago.
According to Captain Piper's report, the
Chicago police are in disgraceful con-
dltion of decentralization, and inefficiency.
Instead of protecting citizens from Grim
mails, the members of the force are drink
ing in saloons. playing slot machines or
gossiping on the streets. Fatrolmen were
accused of taking to their holes at
every opportunity, instead of walking
beats Wide open gambling was FOUND by
Captain Piper and handbooks are running
practically all over the city
Some of the police station houses were
asserted to be unfit for use, and a dis
grace to the city. The administration OF
the criminal laws at the Parson Street
police court, were found TO be more like
mob law than order. Captain Piper ex-
presses sympathy for the head of the
Chicago police force and declares that
Chief O'Neall rs an honest overworked
man, doing the best he can with the
tools at his command"
Police inspectors and sergeants come In
for rough handling.

ELIZABETH HAS
Big OIL BLAZE
Loss AMOUNTS TO ABOUT $500, 900,
AND ONLY The WINDS DIREc-
TON SAVED THE CITY ITSELF
FROM DESTRUCTION.

New York, March 19-Three Standard
Oil company's tugs, two fire boats and the
entire department of Elizabeth, N. j..
were required this morning to prevent tho
spread of an oil fire which caused loss
estimated at 100000 and threatened with
destruction the extensive oil works OF
the Borne & Scrymser Co. at Elizabeth, N.
j.. and neighboring plants and lumber
yards The fire was caused by spontaneous
combustion.
Spreading into the main plant, which
consists of eight or ten buildings and n
dozen big oil tanks the fire became so
hot the firemen could only bend their eff
forts towards keeping Il within bounds.
Two oil tanks exploded. spreading the
blazing contents In all directions. For
tunately the wind was blowing from the
northwest. carrying the flames and ig-
nited oil into Staten Island sound Two
schooners were taken out into the sound
to escape the burning oil that drifted
across the water. Rivers of burning OIL
began flowing after the explosion in all
directions across the property of the COM
pany which fronts on the water. Al
change of wind would have carried tho
fire directly into Elizabethport and prob-
ably caused great loss
