Toe to toe on a chalk line the im- passioned Ward warriors hurled defi- ance and anathemas at each other. With pale, set faces, they went to the conflict and with gallant courage flung at each other, Liar" "Grafter," "Get your pis- liar?" Put him out" XII me if you want to-" You are liar, you are liar and you are a .liar," Police Oh 1t was terrible scene, this deadly verbal bat tie. as it appears in The Age-Herald.
 The president pro tenn of the council was put out of the council chamber by the police. The Mayor In an official communication, denounced two aldermen as grafters and said one of them was no better fin hi5 private life than he ought to be, whereupon one alderman said to his honor, 'You are another"
 A second alderman scattered Liars all over the chamber, and defied the Mayor to use his pistol. He handed out a few more liars. and when he ceased, six policemen were holding the city at torney, who was trying to break the rules of the tournament by striking a real blow Moreover, the city attorney appeared to be in error becapse the hot air battle was an aldermanic and mayor atty affair, and the spectators could only stand by and applaud when some other contestant ran forward with an extra ordinarily fine strip of adjectives Be- cause 50 of the populace cheered at the wrong place the police rushed them out of the door.
 There never has been anything like 1t since the Dreyfus trial and the meeting of the black and tan republican commit tee of Montgomery county, when the chairman always put the question with the but end of billiard cue. It's a handy and effective argument In a close-quarters debate-the butt end of billiard cue. Ac- cording to the Birmingham idea, however, as 1t appears in the debate, dependence Is placed upon pistol as being more logi- cal and convicing. After all, 1t is a matter of choice. Much might be said in support of either argument
 The alderman who had the closing chance easily won the honors of the evening. He opened up with the epithet of Liar" delivered three times in quick succession. Before his antagonists could

recover, he had shot over six separate charges of graft. He had the other side groggy and hanging on the ropes when the bell rang.
 The populaace was applauding loudly. A new detail of police was sent for and the reserves were 'phoned to hold them selves in readiness. In the outer dark ness there was the pathetic figure of the president pro tenn. condemned like the knightly Ivanhoe, to hear the sounds of the conflict, but restrained from taking his place in the battle.
 From the distance, it is impossible, to tell whether the Ward faction or the Parker faction are the insurgents. But peace and humanity demand that the cruel conflict end. The President and the governor are both in Memphis. Some body ought to wire them of the horrors or Birmingham municipal uprising and ask that the troops be called out.
 But before it is all over, the moving picture people ought to get represen- tation of a meeting of the Birmingham City Council on their films and tour Ala bama with the pictures. What rush there would be to see the circus!

NARYSVILLF. October 24.-Dick
Sullivan was awarded the fight with
KYLE Whitney tonight by Referee Ed

Whitney that he had broken small

The referee wanted him to continue

CURIOUS CAUSE
FOR A MURDER

HILO, November There have
been murders for curious causes which
are recorded in the big black book
of crime but it is doubtful if any more
curious event took place than the muir
der of Japanese named Murakami at
Ookala last Friday.
Bedhugs formed what criminologists
call "the motive.''
Murakami was killed by his aikane
Yoshimura, at o'clock, in the morn
ing by a stab over the heart with a
pocket knife, stab which completely
severed the aorta. and it all arose be-
cause Yoshimura said that there were
bedbugs in the house and Murakami,
who had charge of the place, said that
there were not!
The two men had been friends for
years, according to the story told ty
the accused and had lived together
at Ookala, both working ON the plan
tation. On Friday morning Yoshimura
complained about the peculiar feroeity
of the particular breed of Cimex lee
tularius which happened to make the
cabin its stamping ground. Murakami
replied with an insult and advanced
in threatening attitude upon which
Yoshimura pulled out a pocket knife
and stabbed his friend in the heart.
at Castle Maby, waiting for the grand
1t was all very simple, Murakami died
in few minutes.
The murderer hid in the gulch until
the evening when he came out to see If
Murakami was badly hurt. He was,
of course, arrested at once.
Judge Richard committed him for
trial on Saturday and the man is now
at Castle Maby, waiting for the grand
jury.

KVMEHhMEHhS
ARE DEFEATED
From Saturdays Advertiser.)

(From Saturdays Advertiser)
The football eleven representing the
High School defeated the Kameha-
meha aggregation yesterday by a 40
score. The Highs showed up well and
crowd which had gathered to see the
game, which was played on the Kan
field.
The Highs defeated the Punahous
week ago Friday, and this gave them
an apparent slight advantage over the
Hams, who played their first game
yesterday. The Highs advantage
was, however, more than counter
balanced by Kamehamehas excessive
weight; the lightest man on the Kan
team being almost as heavy as the
Highs heaviest.
Probably the largest crowd which
has ever assembled on any of the local
fields to witness a school game of foot
ball saw the match. The Highs char-
tered a special car, which was gaily
decorated with the black and yellow
banners of the High School. One OF
the most unique of any of the sensa-
lions ever sprung by spectators was
the wearing Of black and yellow hats
by several of the young ladies from
the High. Good yelling was done by
both sides, Kamehameha's special
stunt being singing. which was hearth
~ applauded by the onlookers.
Seven minutes past scheduled time.
Bal of the Rams started the game by
a kick. The ball landed in Andrews
hand, who kicked a beauty in return.
The Rams intercepted this, however,
and at the start had things their own
way. Their superior strength threw
the light High School men to the
ground as they attempted TO down
their opponents.
Andrews attempted a few more goal
kicks. which failed until nearly the
close of the first half. when he again
tried for a goal. The ball rose males
ticany in the air and the only points
made by either side were made then.
Andsews' spectacular kicks were
again in evidence in the second half.
Rice tried the same trick which he
played so effectively the week before
against the Punahous. He caught the
ball firmly and started to make an end
run. He evaded the first man who
tried to stop him. but a low tackle by
Kahale of the Kams put stop TO his
progress.
At the close of the second half it
looked as if the Kams might yet sco7.
The ball was in dangerous place in
their territory. and had not time been
called IT is probable that they might
have scored.
