GREEN STUFFO ARE
 IN FROM FLORIDA
STRAWBERRIES ARE OFFERED ON MORRIS AvENUE-coMMIssloN MEN FIND THEMSELVES OVER. STOCKED ON CABBAGE.

 That narrow strip of business activity, Morris avenue, is Birmingham's great pantry and every day on Morris avenue is busy day.
 Though there were but few features of special interest yesterday. business was very active, perhaps for the purpose of cheering the broken spirit of Vulcan, who has been reluctantly hesltating in the vicinity of the foot of the street for sev- eral days before making his triumphal entry. Vulcan is now in the rear of Weller's scrap iron yard.
 The first shipments of green stuffs from Florida are being received and will be welcomed at Birmingham tables. Celery, squashes, string beans and other like delicacies are in evidence Strawberries have been on the market for several days, but the avenue received the first shipment of Stark berries yesterday. These berries are from Stark, Fla, and besides being of better quality than those first on the market, they arrive twelve hours earlier after shipment; therefore they are fresher and consequently more desirable. The Cullman strawberry will not be ready for marketing before the middle of April. Information on the street Is that the berry crop will be very large and of fine quality this season.
 Morris avenue is overstocked with cabbage and the dealers are trying to un- load. Price of eggs has been stationary at 12Q121sc for several days. Chickens are up with strong demand at 40 cents.
 Shad, that comes with the blossoming of the dogwood and remains only for three or four weeks, has arrived.
 There will be plenty of fresh vegetables on the market in a few days.

WILL CLOSE THE
 NEGRO SALOON
M. L. SATTERFIELD WRITES THE MAYOR THAT HE WILL CLOSE PLACE OF BUSINESS ON SECOND AVENUE.

M. L. Satterfeld announces that he will voluntarily close up the negro saloon on Second avenue near Twentieth street on April 1. This matter has been in the City Council for a few weeks past, and in a letter to Mayor Drennen, Mir. Satter- field says:
 q understand that a petition Is being circulated to close the colored bar in connection with my place of business at the rear of the Dude saloon, on the cor ner of Second avenue and Twentieth street.
 q am convinced that the business firms located on this block In which I am con ducting my business object to this col ored bar, and I want to say to you that it is not necessary for the Board of Mayor and Aldermen to act on the petition which will doubtless be presented to your hon. orable board, for I expect to close this colored bar on April 1.
 q have always tried to conduct my business in way so that those in other lines of business near my place would raise no objection, and l prefer to close this place rather than feel that I am in any way injuring their business, so as above stated this place will be closed on April 1.
 While this matter is now being dis cussed, I feel that 1t Is very necessary that the sidewalk along the corner of Second avenue and Twentieth street should be put in good shape, and I re- spectfully petition your honorable body to see that the proper steps are taken 10 have a flrst-elass sidewalk laid.'

AUTOMOBILE PERMITS.
Thirty-nine Machines Licensed to Run
 On Birmingham Streets.

Records in the office of the city clerk show that a total of thirty-nine permits have been issued by him for automo- piles.

The fee for the permit is $1 and the person securing the same gets an aluminium number for his automobile, which must be displayed conspicuously
 It is said there are eight or ten auto mobiles in the city that have no num- bers. The police department will prob- ably be called upon shortly to enforce the automobile laws of the city.

GLASS is USED.
Novel Departure in Construction of
Homes at Des Moines.

DES MONIES, Nov. 1S.-The use of
glass in the construction of houses
here is creating some attention in
other cities. Frank c. Perkins, in his
article Modern American Glass
Houses" in the December Technical
World Magazine. makes the following
statement in regard to the structural
characteristics of these odd edifices:
"a glass wall is of very light weight
compared with one of masonry Fire
damage would be local and easily re-
paired, experience showing that the
wire glass prevents the spread of fire.
though the glass itself is shattered
With this construction, however, re-
placing material is easier than would
be the reglaZing of a window of the
same fGidrs, The expense of a glass
wall IL of than that of brick wall,
and lacihlslll the disadvantages of the
latter, being much lighter in weight,
allowing a soft light to penetrate
through, and having a surface which
is self-cleaning in wet weather. and
which, in the case of tall buildings in
cities, reflects light to the lower por-
tions at the sidewalk"

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 1S.-
Politicians in this city are calling at
tention to the fact that Secretary
Shaw is the only member of the pres
ident's cabinet who took the off-slde
in the recent campaign. Secretary
Bonaparte fought a finish fight with
his old enemy Senator German, IN
MARYLAND. Secretary Taft did some
valiant work for reform in OHIO, ana
Secretary Root let his voice be heard
in favor of turning the rascals out
in New York and Philadelphia. Sec
retary Shaw, however, went up ana
down through Ohia and Virginia
preaching party regularity and advo-
eating standing by Boss Cox and Boss
Everybody Else, so long as that boss
had control of the party machinery.
Tn addition to this, Shaw talked in ia
vor of the present tariff and said that
high prices were a blessing. The pol
iticians are saying that his attitude
has not helped his presidential candl-
dapv
