SHORTAGE OF LABOR
coNVICTs SENT FROM COAL MINES TO FURNACES.
Innovation fin the Use of state Labor CTS fin the Production of Coal
 and Iron fin Jef-
 6erH0n.

Birmingham, Sept. 23.-(special.)- Because of a shortage of labor at fur naces, the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company has transferred a number of It's convicts from tho Pratt Mines division coal mines to the Ems ley furnaces.
 The, men in stripes. will be worked In the stock houses, handling. the raw ma terial Ore, coke and limestone will be loaded into the tram cars and fed to the furnaces. The guards will be in convenient place in order to prevent any escapes. This is an innovation.
 The work in furnace stock house Is not considered as hard as working in a coal mine with task laid out for each day. In the mines the convicts are graded as to their physical ability and they are required to mine so many tons of coal a day. Upon failure to turn out the amount expected they are usually given thrashing. When they produce more than that expected they are some- times compensated, which proves an in- ducement to a few to get out more coal
 The use of convict labor at the fur mace plants has never before been tried and its success is not to be estimated. It is certain that steady labor will be provided. an important matter in rom making.

BEST OF PROOF
That Hyomei Will Cure all Forms
 of Catarrhal Diseases

Testimonials could be printed by the thousands, many of them from Mont eomery and nearby towns, that Hyo- mel is an absolute cure for all catarrh- al troubles. but the best proof of its unusual curative powers Is the guar antee that MT. Fowler gives with ev- cry outfit that he sells, Money back if Hyomei does not do all that is claimed for it."
 Hyomei is not a secret remedy. Its formula is given freely to physicians who want to know what they use when they prescribe Hyomei It Is guaranteed under the Pure Food and Drug Law by serial No. 141S.
 By breathing Hyomei the healing medication goes directly to every nook and corner of the air passages where the catarrhal germs may Turk, and disinfects and heals. To be convinced of this you have only to give it trial, remembering that if it does not cure MT. Fowler will refund your money.
 The complete Hyomei outfit costs but S1.OO, and in most cases is sufficient to cure the disease, making 1t not only a scientific treatment but one that Is highly economical. Get an outfit today from MT: Fowler if you have any ca- tarrh.

WILL CALL ELECTION
JEFFERSON COUNTY TO VOTE ON
 LOCAL OPTION.
Prohibitfon Petition Contafning the Names of S,650 Electors Is Be- Ing Checked Over
 With Care.

Birmingham. Sept. 23.--(Speciai.) )-- Probate Judge Samuel E. Greene, with whom was filed the prohibition petition containing the names of 5,e5o voters. who asked for the holding of local option election, will issue a call for the election not later than next Satur- day.
 i have not told anyone when the election will be called" said Judge Greene T will call 1t not later than saturday which Is the time allowed me by law"
 It was rumored on the street today that Judge Greene had signified his in- tention of calling the election Monday. This rumor gained general credence. but was dispelled by the statement
 The work of checking the petition is proceeding slowly. It is directly in charge of Deputy Clerk Waldrop, who Is assisted by a number of striking telegraph operators and J MI David- son, an attorney, said to be empowered by the liquor interests. It was said Monday that about 750 names had been pie claimed that about 50 per cent of these had been found to be not quail fled asl voters The whiskey people claim that in the mining regions and the distant parts of the county that a large per cent of the signers of the petitions had not paid their poll tax and otherwise disqualified themselves to vote.
 When we got to woodlawn and Birmingham voters" said one of the men who is doing the counting the whiskey people admitted that nearly all the signatures were those of qual- flied voters.
 Thereds no probability that the large list of voters will be checked over by Saturday, when under the law the election must be called. However, it is stated that the local option bili was so framed that when a Probate Judge had satisfied. himself that the legal re- quirements had been complied with and ordered the election called, that there is no going behind his action.
 Judge Greene has not stated that he will strike off the names of any of the signers On the contrary. 1t is generally believed that he will not. The claim that names of unqualified voters>are included on the lists is made entirely by the whtskey interests, 1t ig understood.
