SMALL POX IS NOW
 ON THE DECREASE
ONLY FIVE OR SIX CASES IN BlR- MlNGHAM THIS YEAR-DUE TO BETTER SANITARY CONDITIONS IN CITY.

The good effect Of cleaner city is being illustrated in many ways in Birmingham, but one of the most noticeable is the decrease in the number of cases of small pox.
 Until last year smallpox had always been menace. hanging over the heads of the city officials and the health depart ment in particular There was always the danger of an epidemic and the pest house was frequently well filled, but that is seemingly q thing Of the past
 Last year there were comparatively few cases, probably not over thirty or thirty five, which was a very noticeable decrease as compared with previous years.
 This year the decrease in the number of cases to date is even more marked There have been fewer occupants of the pest house this year than ever before in the history of the city, and the decrease is attributed to the better sanitary con- ditions
 The sanitary department has been ma teraly increased in the past two years. and last year the general cleaning up which was ordered by Mayor Ward seem ed to have the desired effect Since that time the city has been kept in such san tary condition that visitors have fre- quently commented on the fact

BEN BROWNS DRESS
 SUIT WAS A FEATURE

front at a fire and that caused a sudden sickness in his heart.
 But he climed to his seat and then Ben Brown wrestled. Try as he could that dress suit coat would not come off He was used to grabbing his coat at the bottom-glving it one jerk and off it would come. But the bottom of the dress suit was way round behind and Ben couldn't find the bottom.
 Gathered at Five Points were number of men and women and some of them knew Ben Brown. As he came by. hat less and hair flying to the winds. tugglng at his dress suit. Ben Brown cut fignre and the crowd had free vaudeville show. As Ben hove in sight some one yelled:
 "Wrestle Ben Brown" and Ben Brown sgrestled. He passed in front of Parkers store and the music sweled as the crowd joined in the summons:
 Wrestle. Ben Brown. Wrestlen and Ben Brown wrestled..
 And as the wagon flashed out of sight down the street the chorus rang in Ben Browns ears.

CHATTANOOGA STACK
 NOW IN OPERATION
Modern Furnace Was Lighted Tues. day-c. E. Buck President
 of the Company.

The Chattanooga Times of yestefe says:
 Al 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon a was lighted at the New Chattanooga f mace which is expected to burn for ttL. years to come It was the first blowing in of the new furnace and the event is regarded of great industrial importance here
 "c. E. Buck, president Of the chatta- nooga Iron and Coal company-whieh is the corporation that built and owns the furnace. arrived in the city from Birning- ham yesterday morning. 1t was decided after his arrival to blow in, the arrang. ments having all been completed and as- surance given that the supply of raw ma terlal and fuel would De sufficiently steady and systematic to insure the feasibility Of turning on the wind at this lime
 Al o'clock yesterday afternoon, with full force of workmen, in the presence of MT. Buck and under the direction ef Superintendent John Bowling the fire WA P' started. Little 4-year-od Kathryn Bridget I Bowling. daughter of the superintendent who is one of the pioneer furnace buiI CTS of the south. lit the torch and by tc night the new Chattanooga furnace wi be making iron.
 "rhe new furnace is pronounced by ex- perts to be one of the most complete in the south. MT. Buck said last night that it was as complete as d furnace could be built. It will have a capacity of from 175 to 200 tons per day and it Is expected to be in continuous operation at flu capacity for at least three years whe pause may be necessary to roline tA furnace. "It is interesting to note that the fur mace is owned by a corporation that pos sesses sufficient ore and coal mines te supply all it's own raw material. One of the most recent requirements of the com pany was the bankrupt Dunlap CO., mines--150OO acres. now in prospero state of operation
 Work was begun on the new furnf on March 1. 1905 Mir Bucks comps acquired the property after 1t had fe n Ap paN itS loIHlti oNitiH. 9btseat llfiis to taking any steps to put a new fur mace in operation Mr P fighlv examined the property 10 ascertain the cause of former failure. His inquiries led him to tear down the old furnace and rebuild on another site. In equipping the new concern the promoters took advan- tage of observation and experience else where and installed the latas' models of Ia saving machinery, reducing tho act ual force of laborers employed to a sur prisingly small number when the ca pacty of the furnace is taken into con sideraton.
 Local labor will be employed All su- perlntendents, machlnists and enEn g are white men. MT Bowling will con tinuc as the superintendent and C. F. Berry the secretary of i@o company. will be the local manager.
 "C. F. Buck is so well known here that he is regarded as a ChattanooSln, al- , though he claims Birmingham as his home Beside being president of the Chat tanooga Iron and Coal company. he is also president of the Lacey Buck Iron company. which owns and operates large mining and furnace interests in the Bir- mingham district
 The Chattanooga companv has over Si. O1o. O00 invested fin it's enterprise.

''Wrestle Ben Brown. wrestle.r And Ben Brown w-restled.


 And Ben Brown wrestled.
 He pulled and he tugged. he yanked and he jerked, but there was nothing doin'' for Ben Brown.
 Now Ben is a fireman, one of the best on the stan of Chief Bennett, and he is stationed at Five Points. Last night Ben had hopes. and they came very nearly going up in smoke. but luck was strangely with him, although he thought it was all against him.
 It was the night of the firemen's annual ball, and Ben was dressed to kill. He had discarded the regular uniform and was headed for the ball with dress suit and billed" shirt with a bosom as white as the pure driven snow.
 And then and there Ben's trouble com menced. He had scarcely pulled the coat over his shoulders and given his tie last yank to keep it from wandering around under his ear when tho gong struck.
 If it's anything fireman will do it is fulfill his duty, and 1t was Ben Browns duty to ride on the front of the hose wagon. The thought was awful for Ben had visions of spelling that pretty shirt
