SECRET WORK
ALREADY BY

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Oct p.-That
"Bilr' Reid IL desperately In earnest In
his anxiety to turn out Q Championship
football team at Harvard this year Is
shown by the early start at secret prac-
tice on Soldiers Field. Never In Har-
wards football history has a head coach
begun 10 conceal his movements so
early in the season. and II shows that
Reid has plans and formations up his
sleeve which the dear public knows
little about.
Those who know the material which
he has 20 deal with and the methods no
has OF dealing with II entertain little
doubt that by Nov. q an unusually
strong, aggressive. well-trained eleven
will be developed behind the high fence
on Soldiers Field They are not at
all discouraged by, the 10 10 0 soore
against Springfield last Saturday, for
they remember that In 1901 Reds team
did not begin 10 show lie real strength
until the games with P~ennsylvapia and
Yale, The material Is certainly better
now than then. Seldom In Harvard's
history has she had a more likely set
OF men, and although there have been
several injuries. the oripples are mend
Ing rapidly and will be ready for things
within time, at least for Penn.

All the old council has offered for re- election and if nominated there will be two citizens on the council not con nected with Continental Gin company or the Prattville Cotton Mills company, but If the people decide to let off these two then every man and the mayor on the town council will be connected in some manner with one of the companies men toned There Is no excitement. electors coming in at all times of the day since the polls opened, and casting their vote Gs they see fit.
 This (Autauga) county boasts of the only woman who owns her own team and drives a log dray, regularly hauling logs for a sawmill near this place. Miss Wood is about seventeen years of age and is a full hand in keeping Elliotts sawmill logs to saw. She does not seem to mind the work and handles the team with great ease. It is also a fact she loads her own dray with the logs alone It Is said she can load a dray with logs as quick as any man. She does not have to haul logs. She does 1t from choice.

Tuscaloosa. August A-(special)-A a special meeting of the county commis- sioners this afternoon committee con- sisting of J. A. Montgomery J. M. Dew berry, A. O. Howze and George E. liar rison went before the board to submit a proposition relative to the construction of the interurban railroad between this city and Birmingham. which has been talked of for the past several weeks.
 The committee, in the name of the com pany they represent, proposed that if the commissioners would grant them the right of way over the Huntsville road In this county that the company would obligate themselves to macadamize said Huntsville road and keep same in per- feet condition
 The board turned them down on this proposition but it is probable they will come to some agreement. That the road will be built in the near future seems assured. The company is composed large ly of northern capitalists.

Both MT. Ca- ruthers and MT. Dickson denied that the new theatre would be located in the old OBrien Opera House. corner of First avenue and Nineteenth street, although they admitted that they had a propo- sition from the owner of the property.
 We have several propositions under consideration" said MT Caruthers. but we are here waiting for others and will not close any deal until we have con- sldered all propositions submitted to us. We are here for bushes and If any man has a good location for a theatre somewhere down town and will make us a reasonable business proposition we are ready to do business with him at once. We are certainly going to build a first class vaudeville house in Birmingham and when we secure the proper location work will soon begin.
 "Another thing said MT. Caruthers, We do not propose to remodel any old house of any sort. We propose and ex- pect to put up an entirely new building

We expect to complete this chain by building frst-class theatres in Birmingham. Mobile, Atlanta and Chat tanooga. We will have no saloon in any of our theatres as we intend to give high-class vaudeville and cater to 'Gomen and children as we'll as men. We will have uniformed ushers. footman at the front and will establish a New York system of carriage calls. We will give the very best class of refined vaudeville by paying the prices to the stars. This we can afford to do if our circuit is completed as we hope and believe it will be

TO MAKE CHANGES
 IN RURAL ROUTES
GENERAL RE-ARRANGEMENT OF THE ROUTES IN JEFFERSON COUNTY WILL BENEFIT THE PEOPLE.

A general encouragement of the rural free delivery routes in Jefferson county will be made September l. The change will mean that the people living in the country will have a much better service and that it will be much more general than the delivery at present.
 Several routes will be altered. Some routes which are very long at present will be shortened and some of the short routes will be heightened. The work will be more equally distributed among the various carriers so as to give every section of the county a good delivery. In this connection Congressman Oscar Underwood received the following letter yesterday from the Fourth Assistant Postmaster General:
 You are advised that a general rear rangement of the rural free delivery ser vice in Jefferson county, Alabama, has been ordered, effective on September 1, 1905.
 Changes have been made upon recom- mendations of Rural Agent A. J. Knight, who made a thorough inspection of the rural service from each office forming part of the Jefferson county service, and who reports that the proposed rear rangement will greatly improve the ef- ficiency of the service
 At the same time seven additional car riers will be added to the force in Br- mingham. Two of these will go to North Birmingham and one to East Lake, as these two cities become stations of Bir- mingham on September 1. The remain ing four carriers will be added to the Birmingham city force
 When East Lake and North Birming- ham become stations of Birmingham it will greatly increase the postoffice popu- lation of Birmingham and will also In. crease the city's chances of securing 9 new government building

PLATE GLASS RUINED
 BY DIAMOND CUTTER
Damage to the Amount of $600O is Done in the City of Chat
 tanooga.

Damage to the amount of 5000 was done to plate glass fronts of Chattanooga bus mess houses early this morning by some unknown miscreant. Large and costly windows in dozen stores were cut with a diamond or steel cutter, and in nearly every instance these windows will have to be replaced at once to prevent thieves from breaking through. One concern, the Miller Bros department store, estimates its loss at s25O0.
 It is supposed that the miscreant got in his work sometime between midnight and dawn. He made no attempt to en- ter any store and no motive can be as- signed for the work. The sufferers are offering liberal rewards for the capture of the guilty person.
