VIII Open New Mines.

The Sloss- Sheffield Steel and Iron Company will develop coal lands near the line of Jefferson and Walker Coun- ties, a short distance from Palos, opening mines and establishing miu- ing camp, building a washer and a little later constructing coke ovens.
 It is intended to have the mines in operation with daily output of no less than 1,500 tons by October.
 The property to be developed was acquired some time since from the Lady Ensley Company. The Bessie" mine was in operation ten years ago on this same land, but the Sloss-Shef- field Company proposes to open new mines altogether, equip with modern and also a first-class washer.
 Between $100,000 and $150,O0o will be expended in the improvements
 A second Flat Top will be opened. The Flat Top mines are among the best in the country, anG 1t is intend- ed to throw open the nsw mines with. fin the rules and regulations in the minutest details in mining.
 Civil engineers are now on the scene drawing plans for the mines. the tipple and the washer. The Frisco system will build an extention to the property, something like one and a half miles of track to be laid. Other track might be placed later to reach the properties, the company intending extensive operations at this point.
 The coal in this locality Is equal to the best in the western part of Jeffer' son or in Walker counties.

First Cases of Violating Pratt Cityss Curfew Law Heard-Decorati0n Day Quietly Observed---Gai-
 l0way Speaks.

Birmingham, May 30.--(Special.)- Woodlawn. a suburb of Birmingham. Is up in arms and at a meeting tonight citizens outlined plan of night patrolling and suspicious men found around will be dealt with harshly.
 In the past three months a number of hold-ups have taken place, promi- nent men being held up and robbed at the point of guns and one man was killed and robbed, l. w. Walter. An other man was shot and dangerously wounded, Edward Fowler. Posses looking for the negro who shot Fowler last night arrested a negro whose dog he killed short time since as being his assailant Smith was arrested and when carried before Fowler was par tially identified. Smith denies the ac- cusation. Three negro women seeing Smith arrested began abusing the of- ficers and for a while serious trouble was anticipated, a report reaching the city that a lynching was about to take place. Deputy sheriffs were soon on the scene and Smith and the three negro women were brought to the city and locked up In jail, Smith being charged with assault with weapon and the women with abusive language.
 The citizens of woodlawn are going to keep a sharp lookout for all suspi- cious men and some lively scenes are likely to be enacted. There Is posi- lively no clue to the murderer of MT. Walter.
 Fowler, who was shot last night. was carried to the St. Vincent's hos pital this morning and the statement was given out that his condition is dangerous. His father has been sum- moned from Asheville, N. c.

Blind Men Protest.


 The recent order issued by the ad- ministration in reference to moving all cripples and blind people from the streets naturally meets with the dis approval by the class affected and they show by their actions that they intend to test the city's authority on this subject in the courts.
 This morning two blind men were taken up on the streets and carried to the mayors office. One gave the name of Robert Jones and the other stated his name was Mincy. They were offered transportation out of the city to any point that they might wish to go. This offer was promptly re- fused and they stated that they in- tended to fight the case and remain in the city. They were accordingly placed under arrest and taken before the inferior criminal court on the charge of blocking the streets.
 The case was reset to be heard fin the next few days. The blind men have secured the services of attor- neys and the result of the case will be watched with interest.
 The blind and cripple maintain that they are making an honest living on the streets and do not come under the head of beggars, arguing that they furnish music and the donations are free-will offerings and that they do not beg from passersby.
 On the other hand the city is of the opinion that this class of people are a menace to the city and accordingly an ordinance for the prevention of this class was adopted by the city council and the present administration is only carrying out tine dictacts of this ordi- nance.
 In the event that the validity of the te " tected at the trial by the city attor- ney, who is of the opinion that no flaws can be picked in the existing or- dinance on this subject.

But never one. not one, before. Was half like this. your day To you this is the fruitage time For which ycu dared to strive. And nobly. now. you bear the palm. This Class of 1905. You've run the race with willing hearts And kept the goal before you. Till hand in hand you've passed tho With glory streaming OCT you. You've faced new foes. explored new
 fields
 Enjoyed new games in play: You'll sing new songs to quite new
 tunes.
 In a new inspiring way. You mark the dawn of progress There are more new things in sight. Bue let us hope that one thing Eew May never see the light. In these dear halls of learning. 'Mong your sisters down the line May the face of the new woman From your numbers never shine. Your Mater tries each year 10 add New lustre to her name. This class of nine-teen-1905.
 Most proudly shares her fame. Of all the daughters she may send To cheer and bless the world. May none more bravely try than you To bear her flag unrurled The stars and stripes of freedom. Are not your dearer trust. Than the lessons on her banner. That if YOU win. you must Be true and tried and faithful.
 And loving. all else above For duty is a shallow thing
 Without the depth of love. A health to your Alma Mater! To those whove made her jleari May they all live long and prosper; May each succeeding year Find them nearer to perfection.

 A chain which never ends. It binds you to each othew.
 To the pleasures and tho pain. Of childhood's golden hours.

 Your pilot and your mate: Choosing well and wisely.
 In whom to trust your fate. With gaily Haunting banners.
 Your watchwords on the breeze. You'll sail peaceful ocean
 Nor fear tempestuous seas Life's voyage almost over.
 You'll not have lived in vain. But count your many battles.
 By victories you have gained. When. at last. you reach the shore Of the stream that rolls between. And see upon the other side

4 story of shingtOn,

George WashingtOns head gardener
was from some European kingdom.
where he had worked In the royal
grounds. But coming to America he
left his wife behind. Homesickness
for his guide woman's face soon be-
gan to prey on him, and Washington
noticed the anxious eye and dropping
spirits Of his servant. Finally the man
went down to the river and declared
his intention Of shipping to the old
country, when who should come up
and lean over the side Of newly ar
rived vessel but his wife. The kind
hearted general had secretly sent for
the woman, and she fortunately sur
prised her loving husband In one of his
fits Of dependency.
