Minnie King and T. A. King filed suits company and the Illinois Central Rail- road company for $500 damages each for cause in substance as follows yesterday: The complainants allege that they were up to July 15 in possession of a dwell ing on Twelfth street between Third and Fourth avenues and that the said com panies began making excavations for the construction of tracks on the street in question; that as consequence, water was caused to stand in the vicinity the water pipes supplying the dwelling were disconnected and the noise made by the large number of workmen employed on the grading and other things resulting from the work in progress tended to make the place unsuitable as place of resi- dence. The suit was entered in the city court.

Communicated OFFICIAL CARD.
City of Ensley Appeals for Support for
 Romaine Boyd.
EnsIey. Ala. August Il. 1g

EnSley Ala, August H. lyUb To the Voters of Jefferson County
 Our present representatives were all elected from Birmingham. If the pri- mary system Is to be a success in this county do you not think that some re- gard should be had to localities in the nomination of representatives? In mak- ing up their tickets we believe that most voters conscientiousy try to select the best men. To all such persons we would say that City Attorney Romaine Boyd Is a candidate for the legislature at the unanimous and official instance of the city council of Ensley, by whom this com mittee has been appointed to advocate his election.
 Captain Boyd is a lawyer of recognized ability and a man of the highest honor and integrity. We know him well and we believe him to be fully as worthy and well qualified as any man in the race. However, since he became a candidate, hundreds of extra copies of local anti administration paper containing an article favoring another local candidate and at tacking Captain Boyd have been marked with red and blue pencil and sent out over the county. These articles. and the insinuations therein contained, were en- tirely uncalled for, unjust and untrue, and we believe that all thoughtful and re- spectacle people will resent the attempt ed introduction of such dlsreputaDie methods into the politics of Jefferson county. Ensley Is entitled to representa- ton and Captain Boyd will make high lv valuable member of the Jefferson dele gation. vote for Boyd Is vote for Ensley and the city administration of Ensley will appreciate your support of Captains Boyds candidacy
 Respectfully submitted.

The Southern railway has either Just completed or has under course of con- struction about 25O miles of double track in the south, and it has plans on foot for 200 or 300 more miles of double track with in the next two or three years.
 The most important piece of work so far as Alabama is concerned Is the exten- sion of the Ensley Southern towards Paris. This work is being done now and when completed there will practically be a double track between Birmingham and Paris, a distance of forty-two miles. The work was commenced several months ago and has progressed well. It will be some months yet however, before it Is con- pleted. It will, however, be in time to &C., commodate the additional travel between Birmingham and Paris when the Mobile and Ohio is ready to enter Birmingham about the first of next year.
 Between Washington and Orange the Southern has completed and has in ser vice eighty-fve miles of double track. When this work was done 1t practically eliminated all grades and curves on thdt stretch of track. Wherever the Southern is double-tracking it is reducing grades and curves to minimum. There IS cutoff near Lynchburg, Va, which amounts to about five miles, and where the grades and curves are being material ly reduced.
 Other portions of the work are between Danville, Va, and Greensboro, N. C.. five miles; between Greensboro and Spencer, forty-seven miles; between Morristown and Knoxville. forty-two miles; between Austell and Atlanta. eighteen miles; be- tween Ooltewah and Chattanooga, fifteen miles, and between Armour and Atlanta, five miles.
 Eventually the Southern will doucle track its entire line from Washington to Atlanta, a distance of about 6J0 miles. The double tracking does not include many miles of passing tracks, which gre being constructed along many parts pf the road to increase the facilities fer handling the increasing business.

Information which has all the ear marks of reliability indicates that Alfred Walter recently elected president of the seaboard will resign in short time and that Ed ward F. Cost, second vice president and traffic manager. will succeed him.
 It is said that the reason of MT. Wal ters rumored resignation is that the Sea- board was not willing to spend money in as large sums as he thought necessary to improve the service.
