Negro Driver Is Shot.

Tuscaloosa. November 2s.-(Special.)- Lewis Brown, an old negro driver S3 years of age. was shot Saturday night while delivering groceries below the oil mill, south of this city Brown had just about finished his trip and was return ing to H. II. Bakers grocery when he was commanded to stop. He immediately whipped up his horse when load of buckshot penetrated his thigh. The frightened horse dashed off for the store bearing the wounded negro. few hours later Jork Slaughter and Kid Coleman. two young negroes were placed in the county jail charged with assault with in- tent to murder. At first they both laid the crime, one upon the other, but finally Slaughter admitted that he did the shoot ing, but that his intention was only to scare the driver. Their motive, 1t is thought, was to capture the contents of the wagon.

BABE GOES AFTER
 WOOD WORKING PLANT
Chances Are Excellent for Bringing a Georgia Industry to
 Birmingham.

The probabilities are that Birmingham will secure another valuable industry. J. B. Babb, secretary of the Commercial club. left late yesterday afternoon for a city in Georgia to hold conference with persons who have been contemplating the removal of a large woodworking plant here He was prepared with the neces- sary inducements to persuade them to come, and there is said to be but little doubt that they will locate here.
 It was impossible to ascertain additional information in regard to the plant. as the officials of the Commercial club stated that they did not wish to give out any thing until Mir. Babb had been heard from. and the industry was captured. However it is understood that the company deals extensively in all woodenware articles and will be a good acquisition to the smaller industries of the city. It Is also learned that their plant in Georgia was recently destroyed by fire and that if they remove here . large new building will b. erected.

 As Thanksgiving day is essentially the home holiday, we ask again that as many as possible make this the time for their special annual contributions to the Mercy Home. While 1t has been necessary to come before the public recently for other things, Thanksgiving is the only time in the year that we appeal for money for running expenses. donations of provisions. fuel, etc., and we trust there may be a generous response.

HUGHS' OPERATIONS
 ON DTJHENSE SCALE
DR. WHARTON GOES
 TO THE SOUTHSIDE
SERIES OF MEETINGS IS BEGUN AT THE SoUTHSIDE BAPTIST CHURCH AND AN ABLE SERMON IS DELIVERED.

Last night was the beginning of series of sermons by Dr. H. M. Wharton at the Southside Baptist church. corner of Ave nue F and Twentieth street Notwith- standing the indictment weather the house was well filled and the closest attention was given every word. He preached one of the strongest and most beautiful ser mons he has delivered in Birming ham with the text: God is Love-
 He said he would not insult the intelli- gence of so intellectual an audience by stopping to prove that there was God and that 1t was only the fool who said in his heart, "There is no God;' that everywhere in all nature was written the goodness, mercy, beauty and sympathy that loudly and unmstakably says: God is Love" The sermon. while in his usual happy, simple style, was full of power, and made fine impression on the audi ence. One gentleman and his wife con- fessed Christ at the close of the sermon, and were received Into the fellowship of the First Baptist church by Dr. Dicltin- son, who was present, with a large part of his membership.
 Dr. Handley, pastor of the Central Pres byterian church; the Rev. l.. M. Bradley, pastor of the Avondale Baptist church, and other ministers were noticed in the congregation. The general feeling seems to be that the next few days will bring the Southside the most gracious revival they have had in many years. The pas tor. Dr. A. c. Davidson, has his forces well organized, and made an earnest ap- peal to his church and all the people to cooperate with Dr. Wharton in all his plans and efforts in behalf of the un- saved of our city.
 Dr. Wharton will preach at 10 a. m and 7:45 D. m. every day. The ladies meet at 7:15 D. m. in the church for prayer meeting. Everybody is invited to all the services.

 aging Fisurss-.,0s Patisns Discharged.
 The trustees of the New York State Hospital for Incipient Pull monary Tuberculosis in the Adiron- dacks have issued their completed statistics for the first year, which is as follows, There were admitted 7o7 patients, more than half of whom were incipients. There were no deaths. Of the ros patients dis charged, fifty-two were apparently recovered. Twenty-six arrested cases are reported. Sixteen improved, while eleven left without any i'm provement. The treatment consists mainly of outdoor air, wholesome food and rest. Patients have three full meals and two or three lun- cheons a day, and 90 of the Io5 gained an average of Io.57 pounds each. This is certainly most en- couraging and shows that incipient consumptives at least can be cured. There is another treatment perhaps almost as good. Stay home, use cold baths in the morning, get as much outdoor exercise as possible, a generous diet and the continuous use of Scott's Emulsion will doubt less check the progress of the dis ease and may permanently cure. At any rate it is easy to try it.

Finney of Johns-Hopkins hospital, Baltimore. He is recognized among the medical profession as the foremost authority on surgery of the stomach and it is upon this subject that he will lecture. The Jefferson coun- ty society Is fortunate in securing him for lecture and 1t will no doubt prove very beneficial. The society has extended an invitation to all members of the med- cal fraternity outside of Jefferson county to be present At the conclusion of the address smoker will be rendered pr.

 According to information, Hughs has worked all over the country without being detected or captured until he struck Bir- mingham. He was here only two or three days and passed worthless drafts and checks but was nabbed before getting out of the city. Detectives Bodeker and Ham, ilton are the officers who cut short the career of the young man in this vicin- ity.
 Have Relatives Deserted.
 Hughs has been in jail since Saturday evening and none of his relatives has made an effort to get him out of jail. not withstanding his statement that he would be able to make everything good. If what is contained in letters to Chief Wier are true, Hughs stands poor chance of securing aid from his father or other ! relatives. It has been written to Chief Wier that the father of the young man is downcast over the charges against his son, but that the only time that he has heard of the boy for some time was when the youth was in trouble.

Gotham and Knickerbocker,
From the Boston Herald.


That the sarcasm which angered one gen.
GRAFTON Is so far forgotten by another that
a name the satirist bestows on a commun-
ity is accepted as the local designation and
becomes favorite without reference to its
origin. Is evidenced IN the title of the newest
hotel in Manhattan, the Gotham. New
Workers are fond of calling themselves
Gothamites, but their ancestors of nearly
one hundred years ago were incensed when
Washington Irving bestowed the title on
the New York of 1907 They looked up the
strange term, and found that Gotham was
an English village whose inhabitants, re-
nowned for their stupidity, were the butt
of English humor as far back as the middle
ages. 1t was typified in the famous nur-
sery rhyme of later date recording the
voyage of the three wise men of Gotham
in a bowl. Even later, in the early part of
the eighteenth century, Londoners laughed
over the scenes and incidents of a popular
farce, "A Gotham Election"
But Washington Irving has been forgiven
The name has been accepted, while the New
Workers have declined to apply the fable to
themselves. Much the same has been the
fate of "Knickerbocker." Irving saw that
name on sign. and rejoiced in 1t because it
was so provoking of the risibilities of the
reader Old Dutch New York felt Itself sat
rized, and resolved to ostracize Irying-as a
contemner of the aristocracy. Afterward it
grew calm, and concluded that the Knicker-
bockers didn't typify the old Ouch families
of distinction, being in fact very humble
folk with an odd patronymic that tfckled
humorist's fancy. Now, the lew Workers
cause they esteem Irving at his worth as
the kindliest, sunniest of humorists, and
one of the most loyable of men. who, when
he laughed, laughed good-naturedly.
