NEW SHAFT BEING SUNK

Ensley, March 1s.-Ospecial)-"on not
familiar with the things being done in
Ensley and this section has no idea of
the developments that are being made"
said Mayor n. w. Scott yesterday.
THE new engine that has just been
put in commission in the steel plant is a
monster and one of the finest and most
powerful of the kind in the south. 1t
has a capacity of double the present re-
qurements of the mill and leads to the
conclusion that this department is to be
greatly enlarged in the near future.
THE work Of rebuilding and enlarging
the furnaces in the furnace department
is being pushed as rapidly as possible
and in fact some sort of Improvement is
in progress in some part of the Tennessee
Coal. Iron and Railroad company's plant
all the time. Every department is in
full blast and making fine records in the
output of its products and in every de-
partment the work of enlargement and
Improvement is constant and surprising to
those not familiar with the facts.
New Shaft Being Sunk.
u
men has been at work opening new
coal mine for the Tennessee company at
Booker City about two miles north of
bert, that will be one of the largest and
best in the south. It Is said that the vein
of coal at this place is unusually fine.
"A large shaft is to be sunk more than
700 feet before the work of actual mining
begins and l understand that the equip
ment for handling the output will be
the best in the south. A complete electric
plant is to be installed for power and
for lighting the mine.
There is also considerable activity in
all the other plants located here and l
feel confident that this year will show
more real progress in the district than
any previous year
1.-THE work of rebuilding and equipping
the nail mill of the Southern Steel COM
panys plant, which was destroyed by
fire some time ago is progressing well
and will be ready for operation again

All of the cases will come before Judge
Feagin in the police court today.
II Mayor Ward follows the example he
set last week. 1t is possible that one or
more saloons will be closed today. Last
Sunday there were three violations of the
law and the next morning the Mayor in

saloons and keep them closed. The instruc-
lions were carried into effect and the
three saloons were closed. The Mayor gave

Another Charge.

The same officer arrested a negro who
was selling whisky in the rear of a
saloon on Second avenue between Four
teenth and Fifteenth streets. An effort
will be made to connect the negro and
the saloon keeper in the matter, as the
negro has stated that the whisky came
from the saloon.
The other arrest was at 1912 Fourth
avenue, where c. V Chafiin was placed
under bond charged with violating the
Sunday law. He was in the saloon and
it is alleged had the screen doors closed,
which is violation. Lieutenant Eagan
and Policeman Norrell effected the ar
rest. While the officers were in the sa-
loon two negroes came to the back door
and tried to purchase whisky from Lieu
tenant Eagan.

Dr. Williams Pink Pills are n wonderfully good medicine Thanks to them 1 am now in fine health and have had noreturn of my former trouble. I recommend the pills to everyone who is ailing and take every opportunity to let people know how gaod they are. '
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills cured Mrs. Morrison because they actually make good, red blood. When the blood is red and healthy there can be no debility. The relation between the blood and nervous system is such that the pills have very decided action upon the nerves and they have cured many severe nervous disorders, such as partial pa ralysis. loeomotar ataNia and St. Yitus' dance. that have mol yielded to ordinary treatment. Their double action, on the blood and OH the nerves. makes them an ideal tonic.
 All druggists sell Dr. Williams Pink Pills, or they will be sent by mail post paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for B 90, by the Dr. Will Hams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, NY.
