CLOSE DISPENSARY
TEMPERANCE ELEMENT WINS ON
 ROANOKE BILL
Senate Committee Acts Favorably On Measure to Close InstftutfOn Within Sixty Days From
 Its Passnxe

The Roanoke dispensary will be closed within the next sixty days and thus does the temperance sentiment get in another blow. The dispensary will close if the Legislature passes q hill favorably acted upon yesterday by the Committee on Local Legislation Of the Senate, as 1t undoubtedly will do.
 The Senate Committee on Local Leg islation had a right pretty fight be- fore it on the Roanoke dispensary. The bill was being pushed by Senator Overton. Some of the strong influence In the county was against the closing of the dispensary, which has been a money maker for the town. The Ma yor of Roanoke was before the com mittee to show how badly the close would effect the towns finances.
 But the committee favorably acted upon the bill. which provides for the legal closing of the depot within sixty days.
 The committee endorsed the bill which authorized the closing of SIX teenth street in Birmingham for a short distance for the building of the new freight depot of the Illinois Central The bill was one in which there was considerable interest in Birmingham. But in endorsing the measure, the committee altered 1t so that the right of no property holder would be so affected that he could rot sue for damages done to his property by the closing of the street.

PREPARING PLANS.

In accordance with instructions from Mayor Teague, City Engineer A. R. Gilchrist is preparing plans and speci- hcations for the construction of a con- crete bridge over the Genetta Ditch. at the point 1t crosses South Court Street. south of Elizabeth Street.
 It is roughly estimated that the cost of such construction will be from $500 to $1,O00, and should the city fathers rule in favor of the more permanent material, 1t Is looked upon as quite likely that similar changes will be made over the other streets crossed by the ditch. The structure built of con crete would serve both as a crossing and as a culvert.

Charges Against Asylum.

Members of the Legislature generally dis-s cussed the afftdavits making charges of cruelty against the management of the insane asylum at Tuscaloosa yesterday | The general impression appeared to be thsrsl is little foundation for these charges. but they believe for the benefit of all concerned an investigation ought to be had.
