Visitation.

The army has a system of Investigating each case. so that they will be sure to help those who are really needy. The of- ficers visit the homes of the poor and get in touch with tho people. They know when they are in need and why. Each officer carries a supply of tickets, and where they find a worthy case they are supplied with a ticket. The same system is used in connection with their general relief work. When application is made to the army for help the name and address of the applicant is taken and a worker is sent at once to investigate In this way the army is enabled to reach the worthy.
 Then there is to be the tree on New Years when POO little tots will be sup piled with toys. candy, books. pictures, clothes, shoes and everything else that can add to their comfort.
 To secure these the army calls on all those who have caSt-off garments, dis carded toys naything that is at all good, to notify them and they will make good use of the otherwise useless things.
 The army has had good year, and is very hopeful of doing more this Christmas and winter in relieving the suffering of the poor than ever before. Last year 750 dinners were served. This year they are aiming at 1000. This means special work on the part of the army, and special giv ing nthe part of the people.
 Local Force.
 The army has large corps of work CTS in the city this year to work on this worthy project. Adjutant and Mrs. liar rison, officers in charge; Adjutant Wid gery of Atlanta, Captain Keller, Captains Winwood and Pullen of Bessemer, Lieu tenant Wells and Envoy Thompson.
 Besides the above named officers there is large force of soldiers who will be on hand to assist.
 Last year when the army announced it's intention of giving a Christmas din ner, the good citizens of Birmingham ral- lied to their support at the first call for help, and it is felt sure that they will do the same this year.

To raise the necessary funds for the Christmas dinner the following appeal has been issued, which is being mailed 10 the business men Of the city
 Dear Friend: Undoubtedly the poor throughout this country have come to de- pend upon the Salvation army in their poverty and sorrow. Not that We dis pense aid indiscriminately, but rather that our aid is prompt and effective owing to the fact that we have officers whose lives are spent among the poorer classes in our cities.
 We are repeating our Christmas dinner relief this year on the following lines:

jail one of the detectives had pointed a revolver at his head. He was told. he said, that large crowd of men were after him and that he would be lynch ed unless he had confessed that the charges against Mrs. Hartje were false. HOoe said the threats frightened him into a confession which he later signed in this city while intoxicated the liq- uor, he said, having been purchased by the detectives. The negro also tes- tified to having received considerable money from John L. Welshons. a friend of Mr. Hartje, but said he merely bor- rowed it.
 Hooe was put to a severe cross exam nation by Assistant District Attorney Robb who asked questions in rapid succession Finally the negro broke down, crying excitedly: You've got me all excited and tangled up Don't ask me so many questions at once. ask me slowly and I will answer you like a man"
 Then hold your head up. look the jury in the face and answer me like a. man" said Attorney Robb Further on in the cross examination Hooe exclaim- ed: 'Oh, you've got me all tangled up."
 50 you are tangled?" ''Yes. I don't know half the time whether I am in Pittsburg, Washington, New York. Montclair or anywhere"
 Were you tangled up when you made that statement in Mir. Ferguson's $ office about Mrs. Hartie?"
 No sir. the pressure was not so strong" said the deefndant. Attorney Robb, County Detective Robinson and the district attorneys stenographer were also witnesses Mir Robb told of a second confession made by Hooe to him which was to the effect that Hooe had never been intimate with Mrs Hartje. He was corroborated by the county detective and stenographer.
 When court adjourned Hooe was stil' on the stand.

DEAL
 IS ORDERED
For the Japanese of San
 Francisco
Secretary MetcaIf Sent to
 Investigate Discrimina- tiOn Against Jap Children

Washington, Oct. 26. = President Roosevelt directed Victor R. Metcalf secretary of the department of com merce and labor, to proceed to San Francisco and make a thorough and complete inquiry into the situation af- fecting the exclusion of Japanese chiI- dren from schools provided for white children and the determination to place Japanese pupils in separate schools. The president is anxious to obtain from first hand from a cabinet officer who is acquainted with tine To- cal conditions in San Francisco. full information affecting every phase of the subject. to the end that whatever action is taken by this government may be after an accurate understand ing of the situation.
 The president feels that every effort within his power should be exerted to see that all the treaty rights claimed by the Japanese for their people resid- ing in the United States should be re- sDected and protected. The determin- iuatiOn to send Secretary Metcalf to San Francisco was after the requests made by ViscOunt AOki. the Japanese ambassador. who at conference with Secretary Root yesterday asked that IaDanese subjects in California be ac- corded their full rights under their treaty of 1894, including that of the children to attend the public schools of San Francisco.
 It is hardly likely that any report from Mr. Metcalf will be available be- fore the president leaves on his Pan anna trip, although Mir. 4IetcaIf may send some of his information by tele- graph soon after arriving at San Fran cisco. It is hoped by the administra- ton of the United States that the eX- pressed desire of the administration to secure the treaty rights of the Japan csc will tend to allay the anti-Ameri- can feeling in Japan until the whole matter is Automatically adjusted
 The inquiries to be instituted by Air. Metcalf are supplemental to the

Henry AchOf. acting as at torney for Ruef, offered to meet the attorney general and Heney so that the matter might be prepared for sub mission to superior court but Heney refused, saying that it was his rule never to confer with men about to be accused, or their attorneys. The court then adjourned to Monday.
 During all these proceedings and for an hour earlier a crowd of about 5000 people were assembled. Before court opened the crowd had packed the court room and corridors and big squad O.: police was summoned to eject them The police did not use the most gentle methods in performing this task and several prominent citizens were rough ly thrown out into the street in a dam aged condition. Later certain people were admitted to the court room until it was filled and it was then noticeable that a large percentage of the gather ing inside consisted of policemen in plain clothes.
 A throng of 2OOO citizens remained on the streets outside and patiently and in an orderly manner awaited the result of the hearing withins When Langdon and Heney emerged they were heartily cheered. A few minutes later Ruef ap- peared and was booted and hissed. As he was making his way to his auto mobile, man who had been elected from the court room attempted to strike the political leader, but the po- lice seized him.

As to New York City It Leaves Only the Judici- ary Ticket Intact.

New York, oct. 26.-While the gub- ernatorial candidates of the republican the Independence League and the democratic parties were campaigning up state today. there was no dearth of political interest in this city where court decision practically wiped out the local congressional. senatorial and assembly ticket of the Independence League.
 Reversing the ruling of the board of elections the appellate division of the superior court declared many of the nominating petitions filed by the league to have been improperly made in that they were intended to nominate candidates who were to run in over lapsing or extended districts
 The exceptions to this ruling were mostly in the cases of nominees against whom no protests had been made, and whose cases consequently did not come before the court. Many democratic candidates were among Those removed, all Of whom sought places under the leagues emblem of the balanced scales. The leagues ju- dietary alone remains intact.
 The league will carry the matter to the court of appeals if that body can be convened in special session.

1t is said that the time which Mozart
most willingly employed in compost
ton was the morning from 6 or Z
o'clock until 10. his hour Of rising. Aft
er this he did no more for the rest of
the day unless he had to finish some
particular composition at given time.
He worked very irregularly. At times
he could not be drawn from an idea
which possessed him. At other times
he had distaste for work. 1t once
happened that he put off some music
which he had engaged to furnish for
court concert so long that he had not
time to write out the part which he
himself was to perform The En-

which Mozart appeared to be playing
and was surprised to see nothing but
lines upon it.
