RAILROAD BURGLARS
FREfGHT CAR THIEVES CAUSE
 MUCH CONCERN.
Depredations seem to Re Greatly on the Increase, Despite Utmost En- deavors of the Railroad and
 Police Officers.

The depredations of freight car bur- elars in the railroad yards fof Mont gomery have been so greatly on the in crease in the past two weeks. 1t Is said, as to cause the railroads much con- cern.
 A seeming climax to the depreda- tions was enacted Tuesday afternoon about o'clock in the Louisville and Nashville yards in north Montgomery, when two negroes were detected by Car Inspector Robert Lewis, of the Western Railway of Alabama, imme- diately after they had entered a car and stolen quantity of cigars. The Inspector attempted to advance on the negroes to place them in custody when one of the burglars drew a revolver and held the Inspector at bay until both could make their escape.
 Police Captain Niles Smith. Special Officers Rapport and Nissenson of the Louisville and Nashville, and Special Police Officer Lon Taylor. arrested Horace Taylor and Lewis Jackson, me- groes suspected of the burglary. In- spector Lewis has positively Identified Taylor as one of the burglars but it is doubtful as to the Identity of the other. The officers are still at work on the case.
 Recently two cases of coffee and a case of wKiskey which had been taken from a Coast Line car, were found ad- jacent to the railroad tracks under Bell bridge. Previous to that. six empty~whiskey cases, the contents of which had been consigned to the Coast Line for transportation, were found in a lumber yard in the western part of the city.
 The Seaboard Air Line has also suf fered. Eighteen empty shoe cartoons which had been stolen from this rail- road, were found in lumber yard not far from the Seaboard freight house
 Horace Taylor and Lewis Jackson the negroes arrested in connection with the Louisville and Nashville rob- bery, have just returned from the mines, where they served terms for the burglary of railroad cars.

TRIBUTE TO DIR. MICHEL.
Adopted at Annual Meeting of s
 JOhn,a Pariah.

Adopted at Annual Meeting of St.
 Johns Parish.
 The following tribute to the late Dr. Michel was adopted unanimously by St. Johns parish at the annual meeting, Wednesday evening:
 When a man for more than forty years has been accustomed to occupy the same seat in Church and to be a faithful and regular attendant upon it's services, his death comes in the nature of a personal bereavement to those who have been associated with him.
 "Dr. Richard Fraser Michel, Senior Warden of St. Johns (EpiscopaD Church, at the time of his death and who entered into rest on the 18th of April, 1907, was it's oldest Communi- cant in point of years. and but few had been longer on it's roll of membership. His attendance upon the services was so regular as to make his absence noted and only when the hand of disease was laid upon him did he cease discharging a duty which had ever been to him a labor of love.
 "of prepossessing manners, kindly and genial by nature, his heart beat with love and sympathy for all man kind. No appeal for charity, for church or for public enterprise failed to meet with ready response from him, and to the full measure of his ability.
 By his daily walk and life. he bore testimony to the truths of the religion he professed, and furnished an example which those who survive him may well follow. He believed in the blessed promises to be found in the Holy Scriptures and died with the serene hope of the resurrection of the body and life Everlasting
 The tear dimmed eyes of hosts of sorrowing friends the great outpour- ing at his funeral services of those who loved him while living and hon ored and revered his memory. the vast mounds of beautiful floral tributes from people In every walk of life. elo- quently and touchlngly told how deep 1y moved by his death was the com munity of which he had so long been a conspicuous and honored member
 He was the true friend. the patient skilful physician. the upright church. man, wise counselor, safe guide and patriotic citizen.
 Those of St. Johns Church who sur vive him will ever recall with a sense of gratitude his services in the spread ing of Christ's Kingdom upon Earth. They sympathize deeply with those nearest and dearest to him and from their own sense of bereavement can in a measure appreciate how great is their sorrow.

The coincidence that a German pris- oner. serving a term at the State farm at speigner's. could write German fiu- ently but was absolutely ignorant as to English chirography, while the pris- on officials could understand neither written nor spoken German, led to q peculiar state of affairs recently at the prison. when the prisoner desired to write letter of coincidence to his widowed mother in Germany.
 The native of the Fatherland, when sentenced to the penitentiary. had been in this country long enough only to obtain smatterinE of the English language which hespeaks brokenly. AL though h can makeI himself understood in English, he cannot write one word in the American tongue. On the other hand. 1t Is said, the prisoner has fairly good knowledge of the Ger man language.

7ranslator Required to Write
 Condolences to Prisoners Mother.

the old country. The news of ms fathers death was received by the prisoner in his cell few days ago: and, breaking down in the presence or prison officials, he expressed desire to write a letter to his mother.
 The rules requiring an inspection or all mail that goes in and out or the prison. thereby gave rise to the odd situation. The prison officials. with no knowledge of German. had no way to scrutinize the letter the prisoner desired to send, while the prisoner could not write in English.
 The puzsling problem was solved by a Montgomery woman who acted as a translator. The prisoner. in broken accent, explained to the Speigner offi- cials what he wished to say to his mother, while the officer in charge jotted down the sentiments in English. The notes were sent to the Moutgom- cry Iinguist, who translated the notes into a German letter which was sent to the prisoners mother.
