\ RESIDENCE pEsrRoYrpH.
Home Of Mr. Tehb on Noble Avenue Is
 Hurned


 For the second time since last July a destructive fire at o'clock yester- day morning visited the handsome ssv- en room cottage of Thomas w. Tebb. vice president and superintendent of the Conecuh Pine and Lumber Manu- featuring Company. The roof of the residence at No. 12 Noble avenue was completely destroyed. some of the walls were ruined and the furnishings were partly destroyed.
 The entire loss Is estimated at ap- proximately S1,600, on which MT. Tebb carried insurance.
 The fire. 1t is confidently believed, was caused from a defective dining room flue and 1t was only through the merest chance that MT Tebb discov- cred the fire fin time to awaken his family and rush them from the burn ing building. He and his family re- tired at the usual hour Tuesday night and about 3 o'clock Wednesday morn ing, Mir. Tebb was awakened by an unusual noise that resembled the cracking of wood. A few seconds elapsed when he opened the door lead ing into the dining room and there he was almost stifled by the suffocating smoke. Making his way to the kitch- en, he found it in flames, and hurry ing back to the sleeping apartments of his family he aroused them. Mir. Tebb sent in a telephone alarm to the fire department. A quick re- sponse was made by the fire lighters and they succeeded in saving the building from complete destruction. IL was said that the work of ,he fire men was very effective, considering that the fire had gained such great headway when the alarm was turned in. A vast quantity of furniture was removed from the residence and taken to the street but the entire contents oi the dining room and kitchen as well as other adjacent rooms were de- stroyed.
 During the progress of the fire, the neighborhood was aroused and the neighbors did all in their power to render any assistance they could. Mir, Tebb and his family spent the re- mainder of the night at the residence of s. R. Wilder. 13 Noble avenue.
 During last July the residence of Mir. Tebb and practically it's ontire con- tents was destroyed by fire while the family was on a summer visit. The new cottage was completed lasI Mo- vember when Mir. Tebb purchased handsome new furniture and moved fin. He has rented a residence at Noble avenue which he will occupy until his residence has been rebuilt.

SCHOOL IS BURNED
CHURCH USED BY NEGRO PUPILS IS
 DESTROYED.
Fire tn North Montgomery Caused Es- timated Loss of SI,OOO and No insurance--Te Make Tem-
 porary Provision.

The Hunt Street public school house for negroes and three adjacent houses in North Montgomery were destroyed by fire at 1 o'clock yesterday after noon. entailing loss estimated at $1,00O.
 The Hunt Street School was attended by about seyenty-five pupils. It was a church building that was rented from tho congregation of the Williams Chapel. A. M. E. Zion Church. For it's use on week days, the city was paying the congregation $7 per month, while the church was used for worshipping on Sunday. Rev. NJ. $. Phinney Is the pas- tor of the church.
 The school was conducted by two teachers. one of whom is Ida Shaw, the principal.
 The destructive fire originated from a defective fiue and the blaze had made considerable headway In the roof when 1t was discovered while the pupils were engaged in recitations. For few see- onds there was excitement. but the alarm was quickly, turned in to the fire department and the principal had the fire signal rung. In excellent or- der. the pupils, whe had been previ- ously trained in the fire drill tactics, marched hurriedly from the burning building and were safe from the fury of the flames.
 The fire department responded quick ly to the alarm, but they had a long run to the school house, and by the time they reached the scene of the fire, the flames had practically destroyed the building, while the parsonage, in the rear of the school, was in flames, ac al txyn nfhpF n cottages in close proximity to the school house. After diligent work, the firemen were at last enabled to stretch single line of hose about 1000 feet long from the compress property to enc fire, but not until 1t was too late to save any of the buildings. With the one stream in use. they confined their efforts to saving neighboring buildings from destruction.
 The church building, its contents, and the two-room parsonage, were de- stroyed, causing a loss of about $750. on which there was no insurance. The parsonage was unoccupied. In equip ment. the city lost about $25, on which there was no insurance. The city had really gone to very little expense in equipping the school, as the church pews and other paraphernalia were be- ing used to accommodate the pupils.
 The loss on the remaining TWO ne- gro houses destroyed was estimated at approximately $250, on which, it was said, insurance was carried. The occu- pants succeeded in saving the larger part of their furnishings.
 Immediately after the fire. the prin- cipal of the school informed c. L. Floyd. Superintendent of the public schools of Montgomery and MT. Floyd hurried there to find the building in ashes. All of yesterday afternoon Mir. Floyd was engaged in trying to perfect

arrangements for the future accommo- dation of the pupils At an early hour last night, he had not succeeded in per- fecting final arrangements, but he was confident that he could secure q negro Baptist Church nearby for school pur- poses on practically the same terms un- der which the burned building had been leased. F7
 The Baptist Church Is located on a street in VesuviusN known as Church Street, and 1t Is just across the rail- road from the burned building. Mir. Floyd felt assured that the pupils could report there this morning for school.
 The owners of the destroyed church have as yet taken no steps toward having 1t rebuilt.

MAYOR RENTS FINES
MIR. TEAGUE SHOWS LENIENCY TO
 SALOONExEEPERs.
Eight Men Who Violated the sunday Ordinance Got Their Money Back--R. R. Pettus VIII
 Contest Law.

Mayor W. M Teague yesterday re- mitted eight of the nine fines imposed by Recorder Baber on saloon keepers arrested Sunday a week ago charged with violating the Teague Sunday clos ing ordinance. The only saloon Keeper arrested on this day who failed to se- cure a remission of the fine was R R Pettus who conducts a saloon on Bell Street.
 Each of the fines remitted was for s25 and costs. They were against c W. Wilcox. c. W. Smith. C. E. Faulk. enberry, T. N. Pugh, Leo Lichtenstein, Sam Hamlyn. Jesse wadsworth and Gus Verbeck. Smith was the only negro in the number and he and Wilcox were tho only saloon keepers who paid their fines. They will be refunded the money which they have paid into the city treasury. The other saloon keepers took appeals to the City Court and each of the appeals will be dismissed except that of Pettus. ef
 These being the first arrests under the ordinance" said the Mayor yester- day. T concluded I would be lenient. especially because the circumstances in the cases which have remitted were worthy of consideration.
 T will say. though, that hereafter l will remit no more fines for Sunday violations. Tn all of the cases where have extended leniency. the proprie- tors had plausible excuses. Some of them were unable to get carpenters to alter their places as carpenters appear to have been scarce at that time. 9th CTS. who rent their places, had been assured by their landlords that the, stores would be remodeled' so as to com ply with the law, while there were cases where sickness prevented the pro- pritor from having the necessary work done"
 R. R. Pettus. whose fine the Mayor did not remit. was convicted d second time by, the Recorder charged with violationN of the Teague ordinance His fine was placed at $100 and costs and his attorney announced, that an appeal would be taken to the City Court. The first time Pettus was arrested it was alleged that he had a rear door open which led from his saloon into his din- ing room. It was alleged last Sunday that Pettus was selling liquor. It Is understood that the case is regarded as fragrant by the police authorities, and hence the failure of Mir Teague to remit.
 Halliburton. the negro barber on Bibb Street, and his bootblack, who were arr rested Sunday charged with violating the Teague ordinance, have been dis charged by the Recorder. it being shown that Halliburton did not have his place open for businesss but was engaged in cleaning up the place

Some people question the statements that coffee hurts the delicate nerves Of the body Personal experience with thousands prove the general statement true and physicians have records or great numbers of cases that add to the testimony
 The following is from The Rockford Ill, Register Gazette:
 Dr. William Langhorst of Aurora has been treating one of the queerest cases of lost eyeslght ever in history, The patient Is o. A. Leach of Beach County, and in the last four months he has doc tored with all of the specialists about the country and has at last returned home with the fact impressed on his mind that his case is incurable.
 A portion of the optic nerve has been ruined. rendering his sight so limited that he IS unable to see anything before him. but he can see plainly anything at the side of him. There have been but few cases of it's kind before and they

have been caused by whiskey or to- bacco. Leach has never used either. but has been a great coffee thinker and the specialists have decided that tho case has been caused by this. Leach stated himself that for several years he had drank three cups of coffee for breakfast, two at noon and one at night. According to the records of the specialists of this country this Is the first case ever caused by the use of .coffee,
 The nerve Is ruined beyond aid and his case Is incurable. The fact that makes the case queer one is that the sight forward has been lost and the side sight has been retained.
