PREACHERS AND PRINTERS.
Ministers FOrcefuI Speech to Ne,
 York Strikers


 New York, Jan. 1S.-In response to an appeal from Typographical Union No. G. about twenty clergymen of the Metho- dist Episcopal Church today met committee from the striking printers of the Methodist Book Concern, and heard their grievances.
 The men contended that the eight hour day for which they struck was & just demand and declared they had been locked out by the book concern because they were struggling to better their condition. -
 Rev. D. c. Cook spoke for the clergy- men,. He said the Methodist Book Con eern had advanced the wages of it's printers a year ago and had always been considered a closed shop until the recent strike made 1t necessary for it to become an open shop. He declared that some of the men who struck had been employed by the concern nearly fifty years. He also asserted that the Methodist Book Concern should not be treated as a. commercial institution, as it was not conducted for gain, but for the benefit of widows, orphans and worn-out ministers.
 He said he thought the printers had made mistake in going on strike. The Methodist church was a church of the working people, however, and always would be. The conference would cons slider what could be done for the print CTS

 John J. Mitchell, President of the H. limos Trust and Savings Bank said yes terday:
 This business Is to me inexplicabIe There Is absolutely no occasion for alarm and the persons telephoning or advising depositors toIake their money out of the banks are either foolish or malicious. We have been trying to run down the source of these stories.
 Three banks have had the experi- ence with their depOsitors. There should be some way to put an end to these unwarranted efforts to frighten timid persons"

TRIAL OF PACKERS.
ARMOUR. MORRIS, SWIFT AND
 CUDAHY ARRAIGNED.
Umaex Indictment for Conspiracy te nes&rmin Trade, They WifI Rely Upem T'cchnleaiity of
 the Law.

Chicago, Jan. 1s.-The trial of J. og- den Armour and other packers and at torneys now under indictment for con- spsracy to restrain trade and conn nlerce was opened late today before Judge Humphrey in the United States Distflct Court.
 Among the defendants in court tt the opening of the case were J. Ogden Armour. Charles L. Armour, Ira N. Mor- ris, Edward M. Morris, Charles F.. Swift, Edward Swift, Edward Cudahy and A. H. Veeder.
 The important issue in the case is the contention of the packers that the Gov. ernment should not prosecute under the indictments found and that they are entitled to immunity under sec tion of the law which grants freedom from prosecution to any person who is oampelIed to produce discriminating evil dsnce against himself.
 It Is claimed by the packers that they were compelled by Commission CT of Corporations Garfield to give such evidence And that they were, more- ever. promised immunity by him. The result of the hearing which began to- day will determine whether or not tine Government has the right to proceed to trial under the indictments returned against the packers.
 Attorney John s. Miller for the pack CTS, made tbe opening statement He took up the Garfield report, explaining it and detailing at length the issues Of fact which are involved in the case. Mir. Miller then launched into q long discussion of the law governing inter- state commerce. After some time Dis trIet Attorney Morrison raised an ob- lection to a long discussion of the law.
 T am inclined to think that n dis cussion of the law is proper" said the court. '4The same ruling applies to both sides"
 Mir. Miller then continued his argu- ment, but at the close of the day he had not completed his argument,

 The broad gauged man of today does not get blue just because things don't always come his way unless there is something the matter with him. If he falls down" on one proposition he i'm mediately starts to look up another. He always looks forward and keeps on hustling. A man with his health and faculties has plenty of opportunities. and the man who gives up or even feels like it has either small nature or some physical weakness.
 Dyspepsia certainly puts the best of men out of condition for work of any kind. You cannot blame the dyspeptic for getting blue. The very nature of his disease is most depressing and call culated to deprive him of ambition, en- ergy and hope. There is hope for him, however, certain and sure,

Their unbounded opularity-resulting from the thous ands and thousands of cures they have effected. prove beyond the shadow of a doubt their greatness as cures Wherein lies their greatness? In the very fact that they are Natures own simple remedy. They do the exact work in exactly the same way that the digestive fluids of the stomach do be- cause they are composed of exactly the same elements and possess the same properties. They relieve the weak and worn-out stomach of its burden of di- gestion and permit 1t without let or hindrance to rest and grow sound and well. The stomach will get well quick enough in it's own natural way II u Is let alone. That is what Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets do. They not only let 1t alone themselves but make the food taken into the stomach do the same.
 You can satisfy yourself Of the truth of this statement by putting the food you would eat into a glass Jar With sufficient water and one or stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets. The process of digestion will be taken up and carried out just as the gastric juice and other digestive fluids would do it, Their ae- ton is natural and they cause no dis turbance in the digestive organs.

FEAST FOR CONNECTS
STATE PRISONERS TO HAVE HoLI-
 DAY ON JULY 4.
Contractors Promise state Bureau to Give Laberers Fine Dfnned In Celebration of Nations
 Birth.

Jufy Fourth is to be a feast day Tor the convicts of the State of Aiapana' Of the 1900 ana more state prisoners now employed at different camps throughout the state, all, with lne exception of some sixty-five, VIII pc given a grand feast as well as noii- day on the National birthday.
 Arrangements are now making to this and by the different employers of convict labor, who have promised the state Convict Department that the rnurth this year will be one of the biggest and most memorable in convict history of Alabama.
 On the national holiday this year, ,n addition to the day for recreation rsr,,irad bv the laws of the State, these employers are going to give to the men under them banquet such as convicts have never had before. There will be good things to eat, and plen- tv of them. There will be apples ana candy, fruit and confections. For one day at least. the men of stripes VIII be made to forget their condition. ana will be treated as they were In the days before their prison life began.
 It is a law of the state that State convicts shall have at least one holi- day a year. The prisoners have the option of working on that day if they prefer In which event the employers must pay the same wages as they would be forced to pay for free ser vice labor. But 1t is a recorded fact that few of the number in the camps choose the strenuous alternative. Tor holidays are too rare in convict life. But. although the holiday is required bv law. the feast which the employers propose to give their men this year is due entirely to the initiative os the employers. There is no law compeii- ing it, and what is furnished the prisoners Is furnished from the gener- osity of those in whose charge they are.
 Of the entire number of convict enn- pIovers in the State. Only one firm has announced it's intention not to Join in the feast project. This firm, whose name the department refused to give out, will grant the holiday. in aceor- dance with the law. but will not vary the usual diet furnished prisoners TOT the special occasion. About sixty- five convicts are employed by this concern.
 The gross returns of the State Con viet Department for the month Of May as given out by the president pr Shirley Bragg. of the Convict Boafd' amount to sS4,06S The financial cut look for the month of Junes pr brass says is equally good. From Oetcper i 1905 to April 30. 1906. the total re- turns from the department were s57s,- 0si
 The report of the department this vear. according to Dr. Bragg, will show a better health record than last year, when the death rate of conviets was in the neighborhood of three per cent. The president of the Convict Board also announced himself as high Iy pleased with the success of the cot ton mill at speigner's. which Is now Tn operation.

 This leaves Mir. Craig as the only candidate iu the district for the seal and it is doubtful now if any one VII oppose him.

MT Greer says that he has been highly 1attered by the support which has been vouehed him by his friends and that he was very confident that If he stayed in the race he would be victo- rious. However. he says, after care full consideration he finds that it will be impossible for him 10 devote the time necessary to make successful canvass of the district He also says that in justice to those dependent upon him he did not feel as if he could spend the amount necessary for an active and thorough canvass. such as would be necessary in a primary election.
