chant was charged with exposing for sale
thirty-eight tins Of chicken unfit for human

that 1t was absolutely impossible for the
dealer to know the condition Of the food
when there was nothing externally to indi-

sound. Nevertheless. the merchant was

elRMINoHAM,s INVITATION.

From the Gadsden Journal.
The Birmingham Press club has elected
Mr. j. A. Rountree, the well-known editor
OF the Dixie Manufacturer. as the delegate
to the International League of Press
Clubs that meets in Denver on August "a.
Birmingham has extended an invitation to
this great body of newspaper men to meet
In that city next year. and Mr.. Rountree
will go prepared to present the claims of
birmingham and the state of Alabama
for the convention. This body Is composed
of representatives of the press from cities
throughout the world, and its meeting
at Birmingham would be of great benefit
rot only to the Magic City. but to the en-
tire state, and in fact to the whole south
ern country In case the convention is
secured by Birmingham there should be
cooperation among the principal cities OF
state for an itinerary to the chief centers
of population and other points of inter-
est to the end that all parts of the
state may share in the benefits which are
certain to result from such a gathering.
II the delegates could spend a day In
Gadsden we feel sure that their enter
tainment will be provided for and that
both the delegates and our city would be
mutually benefited. Here's hoping that
Birmingham may succeed in capturing the
prize.

Cocoa and Chocolate.

THE increase in consumption of cocoa
and chocolate in the United States has
more than doubled since 1900" says a
writer in the New York Sun This graft
flying increase is left in the shade when
compared with the increase since the
centennial year. In 1876 consumption in
the United States were only A,2S7 bags,
or 2123 tons. The sales for manufacture
and consumption in 1905 were 10000 tons.
an increase in thirty years of almost ex-
aetly 2O00 per cent
Less than eight years ago the United
States held only fifth place as manufac-
turer of cocoa and France taking preee-
denee In about the order named. Today
we hold first place, both as manufacture
ers and consumers of cocoa and choco-
late, by a comfortable margin, and are
increasing our lead by leaps and bounds.

NEW PANAMA CANAL BONDS.
Engraving IL Most Unique Specimen
of Art.

From the Wall Street Summary.
Washington.-The new Panama canal
bonds will be among the most ornate ever
issued by the United States government.
The designs have been made and the fin-
ishing touches are now being put upon
the plates at the bureau of engraving and
printing. They will be Issued on the first
of next month. There are three denomi-
nations of the coupon bonds. 500. 800 and
$1,000. At the top of the bond is beau
tifully executed engraving representing
Liberty joining the Atlantic and Pacific
Liberty is very good looking young
woman, with just enough drapery on to
reveal the outlines of a classic form. Her
head Is framed In a shell. Her right
arm which supports the slightly inclined
head rests upon rock draped with the
United States flag. In her left hand she
holds a caduceus. the emblem of good
conduct, peace and prosperity. Palms are
grouped around, and at her feet two con-
ventional dolphins spout water into the
Atlantic and Pacific. Steamers and sail
boats are depicted on either side about to
enter the canal, and in the background
are the palm-girted shores of Panama.
The back of the bonds is deliberately or
namented with lathe work, scrolls, and
horlation as a border. while in the center
of the frame thus formed is the coat of
arms of the United States. At the bot
tom of the bonds is finely executed
vignette. On the $50 plate appears the
head of Balboa, who discovered the Pa
cific. He is represented In armor. and
with plumed helmet. These will be print
ed in brown.
On the 800 bond the vignette is Of
Alexander Hamilton, in profile. facinr to
the right He will be done in olive. The
$1,000 bonds carry Likeness 81 the late
Senator Mark Hanna, regarded by many
as the real father of the Panama canal.
These will be printed in a soft shade of
red. The registered bonds are plain, as
compared with the coupons They do not
have the engraved Liberty and landscape.
Their only ornamentation. outside of the
elaborate scroll work which frames the
United States promise to pay. are the
vignettes of Balboa, Hamilton and Hanna.
These are placed In the upper right hand
corner, while in the left is depicted an al
legorical griffin.
In the registered series there il 10 be
issued $4,000 bond. This will be printed
in green and will bear the picture of the
late President Mckinley.

FRESH AIR FOR MINERS.
New Respiratory Apparatus Tried In
France.
From ILLUSTRATION.

From ILLUSTRATION.
The Society OF Mines at courrieres
has just undertaken in shaft No. a
series of experiments with a new re-
spiratory apparatus called pneumatogen.
Every apparatus designed for allowing the
stay in deleterious environment must
fulfill three essential conditions-exclusive
communication of the respiratory organs
with a reservoir of respirable gas together
with light weight. sufficient capacity of
of this reservoir to supply a man for a
certain time; elimination of the expired
earbonic acid. which would poison the
pure air.
The nneumatogen. which seems hap
PLY to realize these three conditions,
is based upon the method of the renewal
of vitiated air devised several years ago
by M. George F. Jo5ibert. 1t consists of
an India rubber bag, worn in front,
about waist high and supported by a
strap passing up one side OF the miners
chest, around his neck and down the
other SIDE Into this bag by means of
a mouthpiece he sends the products of
respiration, which are compelled to go
through two tubes containing grains of
oxylith. The oxylith, or stone of oxygen,
has the property of retaining steam and
carbonic acid. while setting free a cores
ponding quantity of oxygen. The vitated
air therefore, finds Itself renewed when
1t becomes stored in the bag.
The experiments made at courrieres
have given excellent results. The miners
furnished with the new apparatus have
been able to work shafts where the air
was absolutely unacceptable.
