The response of the people of Birming-

whelming Not only have they come in
great numbers to the office. but from all
over jefferson county they are writing to
commence the treatment by mail. This
universal wave of enthusiasm and ap-

the Physiological treatment is as well
known to the laity as 1t is to the medical
profession. Physicians, however, are re-

Important Case.

A case in which many Alabama cities
will be interested is that of Essie Reese
OF Montgomery VS.. the city of Montgom-
cry, in which she tries to prevent the city
issuing $50O.000 of city bonds To refund its
Indebtedness on the ground of illegality.
The lower court has granted restraining
order, and it has gone to the supreme
court. the answer being just filed in the
office of the clerk of the latter court by
City Attorney c. p. Mcintyre.
The last legislature granted the city the
right to issue forty year bonds at per
cent to refund the debt. 1t was found that
the bonds could not be sold at that figure
and the city then fell back on the state
law allowing municipalities to issue thrifty
year bonds at Az per cent. Mrs Reese

the only authority the city has to issue
bonds is contained in the special act The
supreme court will take it up next Thurs

for Them
The match between Stone and Griffin
promises to be a red-hot corker. Both
men are in excellent shape. Stone, with
all his two hundred and odd pounds of
bone and muscle, will prove an exceed
ingly tough proposition, as Farmer"
Burns and Frank Gotch, both of whom
have met him, will testify. Griffin is
game to the core, as is known and has
profited much from his recent training
with the Farmer" and Gotch. Griffin
would not be surprised if he loses the
first fall, but hopes that his mettlc and
endurance will stay to the good longer
than that of his heavy opponent.
The programme has its beginning at
$50 o'clock and will be continued until
the audience sees fit to leave. Inc scene

Quite a treat for the local sporting
world is offered tonight at the jefferson
theatre, when Thomas Griffin, the well
known and clever Canadian, wrestles
Charles Stone, the Swedish giant who a5-
pires to the American championship.
However, this match is not the sole
attraction of the evening. There will be
a three-round boxing event between Roo
George and AL Gessett, both men being
exceptionally skilful with the gloves.
Those gentlemen do not pretend to the
grade of Jim Corbett or John l.. s..

with confidence and agility. Gessett mas

The Proclamation.

"A Proclamation-By the Governor.
''In view of the one hundredth anniver-
sary of the birth of Gen Robert Il. Lee.
il seems proper to me that proclamation
from this office looking to a suitable
celebration of the event would be appro-
pirate and timely.
General Lee was one of the best
rounded characters in the worlds history.
He was an accomplished scholar, Christ
ian gentleman. an immortal military
genius No name, perhaps. in all the
realms of reading offers a finer example
for the emulation of our youth than the
name of this modern and knghtiy per-
son.
Whereas, IT is requested: First. that IL
the schools in the state celebrate January
10 in such way as may be suggested by
the management of such schools, or IN Il
way which may be suggested by the State
department of education.
Second 1t Is further suggested that
every camp of Veterans and every camp
of Sons in the state arrange for a recog-
milton of the worth and sacrifice of this
heroic soul. In this movement the camps
we know will have the cordial sympathy
and assistance of the Daughters.
"Our southern states which have not
made Lees birthday a holiday, it is
hoped will follow a like course and III
future these, together with those states
which have already declared ii a holiday,
will, as near as they can. agree on a
similar plan for its general celebration In
the south.
TN testimony whereof. I have hereuntn
set my hand and caused the great seal
of the state to be affixed at the capitol
in the city of Montgomery, this the 21st
day of November, 1906
"WM. d. JELKS, Governor.

states of the south which have not made
the birthday of Lee a state holiday do
so at once.
The letter addressed to the governor by
Mrs. Lee requests that he urge tie
schools and the patriotic societies to take
this matter up in proclamation from
the head of the state government, at the
same time telling him that it is to be a
part of a general movement all over the
south She also asks him to advise other
states to make it a legal holiday, and
closes:
with the passing of the years the
fame of General Lee has widened until he
is easily recognized as the first in That
great galaxy of heroes developed by the
war of the secession. The contemplation
of such a life, the study of his words
and deeds, and an exaltation of the
Christian ideals for which he stood will
do much for the elevation of the youth.
