THIS CASH REGISTERS
COMPLETE SET OF BOOKS

The George Wilson Hardware
company has just installed ono Of the
very latest, most Up, to.date and costly
cash registers on the market. II Is
one Of the national multiple counter
registers and cost 500. II is much
larger than she ordinary kind and
does away with . lot of book work |;
in faot Il ia . regular set Of hooks In
itself II registers everything. even
to the sumbsr Of times that tho bsok

Thafe is y separate drawer for each
clerk and the cash at tho end Of the
days transaction must tally or there
IL something wronR ~ the cash reg.

bells In tho back Of the wooden base.
one for each clerk and each DELL has =
different sound. 70 shat any clerk oan
tell instantly whether it IL his bell

else. Each clerk IL given two purses
-ons for change that IL handed to
him In the morning by the cashier
aad the other to hold the amount Of
his cAsh sales when he oashes into the
cashier At night. There IL also =
balance cash slip that must be filled
out and handed over to the cashier.
The register will keep an accurate
aoooant Of sales running up into the
millions Of dollars, footing The same
every night. or II can be used merely
to record the business transactions one
day after another, 10 that even
more book work can be disposed Of.
Mr.. Wilson figures that he will soon
be repaid BY ACCURACY and saving Of
time. There arc fourteen such reg
sters In the county now and the
Central Meat market has ordered
another. They are we'll worth any

MAIL CARRIER HUFF
 HAS DISAPPEARED
REAL MONEY AGAIN IN EVIDENCE AT GADSDEN AND CLEARING HOUSE CERTIFICATES ARE BE- ING RECALLED.

Gadsden, December 13.-(Special. )-Jm Huff, a mail carrier on one of the rural routes running out of Attalla has mysteri- ously disappeared. No trace of him can be found nor has any reason become ap- parent thus far for his absence. He is wainted as a witness in the trial of Chies Birt of the Attala police force. charged with the murder of Frank Miller and now on trial in the city court. Huff has ai- ways borne good reputation and his wife and children are still in Attalla and claim ignorance of his whereabouts
 Real money is again in evidence in Gadsden and the banks are retiring the clearing house certificates. It is the gen. eral opinion that by the first of the next month all the certificates will have been recalled. There Is much more silver In evidence than usual.
 The Kyle Lumber company, which some weeks ago announced It's intention to close its mill soon, is still receiving logs and will run for some weeks longer. It Is hoped that meanwhile conditions may change so that no shutdown may be ne- ceSsary.

Elks Will Work Hard.

T. T. Huey, who is chairman of the committee on arrangements for the an- nual Elks Christmas tree, has appointed Mrs. Andrew Mitchell chairman of the ladies committee, and Mrs. Mitchell re quests that several of the ladies from each denomination in the city meet with her at her house at, 1923 Fourth avenue, on Monday afternoon at o'clock so that different committees may be formed to help the work along.
 It is proposed to have as many as two or three ladies from each denomination in the city on the committee, and this means, it is thought, that great deal of good can be accomplished. It is not linn ited only to the ladies in the different churches, but on the other hand the serv- ices of those who are not associated with any especial church will be greatly ap- preciated.
 A new system of giving the things off the Christmas tree has been adopted and 1t is thought that 1t will prove to be a very popular plan. Instead of the chill dren rushing up in a bunch as hereto fore and being given anything that it was thought they needed the different committees will make a canvass of the city and learn for themselves who the children are that are most in need. Each of these children will be given ticket with a number on it, and the ladies will keep the corresponding number The child will tell what number it's ticket calls for and the committee in charge will be enabled to see just what it is most in need of. By this means 1t is be- lieved that the little children that are really needy will be greatly beuefted Everyone is working hard to make the Christmas entertainment a success and this one promises to eclipse anyone pre- viously given.

 sonaL and General.
NEGRO KILLED AT PLANT

Ressemer. December 13-The judiciary committee of the city council met this evening in the council chamber and looked over the new license schedule and heard complaints and petitions re- garding some of the proposed raises. w. E. McWilliams had a petition in which he asked the council not to raise the license on poolrooms. This matter was passed over and the committee will simply recommend that it stand as it was fixed. It will be recommended that the license of photographers which was raised from SIP to $25 per year be put at $15. A license of 5000 on all auction sales will be recommended
 Lodging houses and boarding houses that cater to the transient trade, $2O per year.
 Job printing and newspaper offices, s25 per year. It will also be recommended by the committee that a license fee of $100 be charged any person or persons who wish to engage in the business of as signment of wages. It is understood that it quite frequently happens that a negro or white man who may happen to be in straightened circumstances, will go up to a money lender and borrow a sum of money for which he assigns his wages When the payday comes around the man who holds the assignment goes to the pay office and draws the money, and the man who has borrowed the money has to go up and settle with him.
 Hotel license per year, $20.
 Job and newspaper advertising solicitors for out of town houses $25.
 One of the most important things that came up will be the recommendation that the license of the waterworks company be raised from $500 to $100O. This will no doubt bring on just a wee bit of talk between the city and the waterworks com pany.
 It will also be recommended that the license of the Southern Express com- pany be raised from $50 to S25O.
 The license of the Peoples Telephone company will be left at $200 per year
 It will be recommended that the license of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company be left the same as it has been for the year 1907, provided that trans ,fers are given on the North and South Bessemer lines.
 It will be recommended that the mer- chants tax be raised on the larger stocks
 Livery stables, $75 per year.
 The committee will submit its recom- mendations to the council at the next meeting, which will be held on next Tues day evening at which time it is thought they will be acted upon.

Merchants Report Business Good.

The merchants of Ensley report busi- ness conditions very good, and are antici- pating fine Christmas trade. The stores present a holiday appearance, many of them being stocked with Christmas soods. The real estate men report a fair busucess and that sales are being made every day. The feeling of uneasinoss has completely disappeared from the fact that not only are all the plants at work but new work is being constructed. Messrs Ram say and Mccormack are still building stores, and as soon as the present build ings under construction are completed they will commence to rebuild the olock on Avenue k that was recently destroyed by fire. Altogether the conditions of Ensley business and otherwise are very gratifying.
