As is generally known, Dodgeville
had a mild siege of small poX in the
early part of the spring, during which
the duty of the city marshal it appears
was to serve as "errand boy. " etc. for
the quarantined patients. In carrying
out this program the marshal got gro
ceries and meat, among other things.
and carried them to the homes of the
patients without any provision for paw
ment. The merchants, of course,
charged the same to the city, and now
the city refuses to pay, on the claim
that the marshal purchased the goods
without authority Who should pay
these accounts? The merchants GER
tainly ought not to be the losers.

Elephants.

People who really know nothing
about 1t used to say that elephants
never lie down to sleep. This is not
true at all, says one writer. They have
been known to stand for twelve
months without lying down to sleep
This is regarded as want OF confidence
In their keepers and Of longing to re
gain their liberty, for when they are
perfectly at ease and reconciled to
their fate they will lie down on their
sides and sleep peacefully.

Don't Want Checks.

The Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company issued an order this morning to the conductors on the North Bessemer line not to accept checks in payment of fare, and it is supposed that the order holds good all along the line. It was pointed out by the conductor who turned the check down when it was Of fered for payment that if the conductors were made to accept all the checks that were offered they would have to carry a bank roll around with them as large as d bale of hay.
 A man boarded a North Bessemer car this afternoon, and when the conductor came around to collect the fare he ten dered him a check, which was for 8. The conductor explained that he could not take it. The man said that it was all he had, and he did not know what to do unless the conductor would take it and give him the difference in change. He said he was going to Bessemer, and judg- ing from the way in which the words were spoken he meant just what he said. Another passenger on the car saw show things stood and he offered to cash the check for the man. This was done and tho fare was paid and the trouble was off.

Days Business Is Good.

Business in this city today has been especially good, when it IS taken into consideration that there have been no very large pay days. A great many of the larger concerns always make it q rule to pay off the second Saturday after the first of each month, and for that reason the large pay days will not occur until next Saturday.
 Trading in all lines today has been very good and the merchants report that they feel very much encouraged over the out look They state that business has been a little off for the past week. but this is attributed to the fact that the last of the month always brings along dull times. All of the pay rolls that were due today in Bessemer were met with the good, hard cash, furnished by the Bes- semer National bank. The following pay rolls were met with cash furnished by this bank: United States Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry company, Bessemer Foundry and Machine company. Central Foundry company, Bessemer Soil Pipe Works, Hannah x Hickey. realroad contractors: C. R. Hughes, railroad contractor, and all of the other smaller concerns such as the building contractors and others that have a pay roll to meet each Satur- day evening.
 The officials of the Bessemer State banks when interviewed, stated that business with them had been particularly good during the entire day. and they had no reason to complain. They state that after the first day of excitement everyone seems to have arrived at the conclusion that business would go along just the same as usual and they had not been able to see much difference in the daily amount of business.
 The streets are crowded this evening, and it is thought that at the close of the days business the merchants will find that everything is going along very nicely.

NEGRO SERIOUSLY HURT BY MOTORMAN Was Attempting to Board North
 BeSSemer Car THE MERCHANTS ARE BUSY Large Number of Concerns Pay Off Employees In cash-Personal and
 General News of
 Bessemer.

Bessemer, November 2.-(Special )-Jinl Brantly well-hnown negro about town and one that is especially well-known to the police of this city was fatally wounded this afternon by q motorman on the North Bessemer ear that left here at ) o'clock.
 No one seems to know just how the trouble started, but il appears that the negro had some kind of grudge against the motorman. and when the car got ready to leave for Birmingham he at tempted to board the front end of It. The motorman would not let him get on, and the negro is supposed to have made some threat or else pulled some kind of a weapon. Anyway the motorman proceeded to work on him with a switch stick and the result was that the negro landed out in the street, and it took several minutes to bring himlaround. As every one knows, a switch stick is d pretty formidable weapon and the crack on the skull of this man goes to dis abuse the mind of anyone that may have had an idea that a negro could not be knocked out by being hit on the head.

Comments By Major Russell.

"The improvement desired and to decide the feasibility and advisabllity' of which this survey Is made, has for it's object the ultimate forming of a waterway with all the year round navigation from the coal, iron and lime regions of central Ala bama to tidewater at Mobile, Ala. The Birmingham district which today prob ably dictates the price of pig iron to the world, is the objective.
 There is no question as to the feasi- bility of building this line, and the only question is as to the feasibility of operat- ing it. that is. is there enough water available for this purpose At the time of the survey all streams were very low and there had been a long continued drought The amount of water then in the Valley river at the summit level Of this part was not enough to operate the canal so that it will be necessary to make q storage reservoir at or near McAdory. Two dams are recommended which, to- gether will impound enough water to sup ply the canal for three months without rain. In the canal proper dhat is, north of McAdory to Five Mile creek. c. G. D) storage reservoir must be built at the headwaters of Five Mile creek. but even with that it is doubtful if the canal can be operated throughout the year. If, however. the work-is confined at present to canalizing Valley river and building storage reservoirs. which can also be used as loading basins, the savings on freight will be enough to build up large export trade, and I can answer that the project Is both feasible and advisable..'

meandering system, placing no great ob- stable in the way of an up-joumey and giving but little help in the running tim } of q down journey. Deducting from this i fall the 42 feet involved in the five miles , of Squaw Shoals. about 9 miles north of Tuscaloosa. the balance of the gradual descent to the gulf becomes increasingly gradual
 McGreW Problem.
 The problem between McGrew 'sAshoals, Ill miles north of Mobile, up 10 the june tion of Locust and Mulberry creeks. due west of Birmingham. is to produce slack water of q maintained depth of feet at mean low water. Engineering diff culties in the way are nonresident. 1t merely means the construction of 19 or 20 locks. Lock 1, at McGrew's shoals which will be ill operation this winter and completed by the autumn of 199S- gives slack water for 70 miles, at which point Lock No. ? has not been started, land now being in process of government condemnation. The same is true of LOG. No. 3. Three years will be required to complete these locks, and thus give slack water to Demopolis, 230 miles from Mo pile. Between Demopolis and Tuscaloosa, or. to be more exact. a point above Tus- caloosa, called Tidewater, there will be ten locks, seven of which are already completed, and three more to be eomple i ted by January 1, 1908; continuing nerth of Tidewater there will be six locks, none of them commenced but all of them au- thorized and covered by appropriations.
 Birmingham To Gulf Stated thus succinctly the question in- volved in putting Birmingham in touch with the gulf Is just the question of the canal from Valley river. The rest is either finished or nearly finished, or pro- Vided for. South of McGrews shoals no [ obstacles exist: south of the junction of the Alabama and Tombigbee ships draw ing 3d feet can arrive and leave at any state of the river and tide; south of Chcasabogue creek, at Mobile, to the lower bay, ships drawing 21 feet inches ean-esrive and leave; south of the lower bay the outer bar admits ships drawing % feet at mean low tide.
 canal from the mouth of Valley river to McAdory in the Bessemer district will call for 2 locks and cost s4,5o0,0Oo, or slightly over s100,00O a mile. Engineers regard it as perfectly feasible and rec ommend 1t.
 A canal from McAdory to Five Mile creek, passing right through North Bir- mingham, would call for 13 locks and cost S4,O0OO00. It is feasible as an engi- neering feat, but not safe as an all-the- year proposition, in periods of drouth Five Mile creek would not give sufficient head of water.
 The report of survey covering the Blr- mlngham canal project will be found in report of the war department for 1899, covering reports of chief engineers; 1t runs from page 17S0 to 17S3. This refer. ence is given for those who would like to read the report in full. For the pur- poses of this article extracts will suffice.

 It was reported around the city yes- terday that the Bessemer Gas company had cut off some of its men on account of the general excitement in the indus trial and commercial world. When investie ated the report was found to be without foun- dation, and the men are working alor g as usual, and the work is being rushed rapidly. There were some men laid off, but it was because it was found that the company had been forced to pay from 10 to 15 cents more than the same labor was bringing in other places.
 Miss Flora Little entertained delight- fully last evening and the guests were treated to some real surprises. Games were played, after which delicious re- treatments were served. The ladies prize was won by Miss Francis Kelly and the gentlemen's prize went to Howard Price.
