Threw Rocks at Train.

4 party of young boys who are
employed in factories in this city took
an outing in the county last Sunday
morning, and being near the point
where the Macon road crosses the
track Of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad
when the westbound passenger train
PASSED, proceeded to throw rocks at
the coaches. To throw rocks at
passing train constitutes a peniten-
tiary offense, and the boys were ar
rested by Deputy Sheriff B. D. Erwin
and Constable Abe Lofts, and were
held for trial
The offense took place in District
No. 5, in which Mr.. Chas. w. Evans
is justice of the peace, and Mr.. Evans
came to Columbus to try the miscre-
ants Monday morning. The railroad
company placed the matter In the
hands of Special Agent Ames, and
when Mr. Ames learned that the boys
were little fellows hardly out of their
swaddling clothes he refused to pros
ecute them, and Justice Evans al
lowed them to go to their several
homes in peace.

Birmingham, Ala, Feb. 10.-An
important railroad project just an
nounced is that the ST. Louis & San
Francisco and the Illionis Central
roads will Jointly build a log grade
line from Birmingham to Jasper. for
ty-five miles west of here. The road
will cost s3.500.000. or close to
500, 900 per mile.
The Frisco main line from Jasper
to Birmingham will be used by the
Illionis Central4 in entering Birming-
ham. the latter road to operate from
Corinth. Miss. to Haleyyille, Ala,
which section it is now building, and
from Haleyville to Jasper it will use
the Southern Railway tracks. AS
both the Frisco and the Illionis Cen
trail expect their traffic to be very
heavy from Jasper to Birmingham,
they have determined TO build a joint
low grade road, in addition to which
both roads will also use the old track
of the Frisco, giving both lines the
use of a double track between Jasper

The Illionis Central expects to be
running trains into Birmingham by
next summer, according to recent
statement made by Vice-President w.
J. Harahan. but the double track will
not be ready for a year or more, as
the country between Birmingham and
Jasper is very rough, and the work
will be quite heavy.
The Seaboard Air Line has COM
pleted all its plans for building a
branch line from its main line, near
Jacksonville, Fla, to Admission All
franchises have been secured, and it
is understood that some of the con-
tracts have been let. Work will be-
gin at once and will be pushed to rap

that this road contemplates building
a branch line to the Gadsden district,
tapping some rich coal fields and st.

TEMPERANCE IN ALABAMA.

TEMPERANCE IN ALABAMA.
1t is not improbable, as a result of
the temperance movement which has
been manifested in the legislature of
Alabama, that whiskey viii be put
out of large number Of counties
in that State Bills have been intro
duced in both branches of the legis-
lative body in Montgomery looking
to that end and they have been pass
ed with a unanimity which foreshad-
ows whiskey's doom in a large sec
ton of the State
The law in Alabama at present is
a local option law, limiting the sale
of whiskey with the county precinct
as the unit; that is, the people Of
each county precinct shall say wheth-
I el. or not they will tolerate the saloon.
The proposed legislation makes the
county the unit. and instead of a
particular beat being allowed to sell
whiskey as a result of the wishes of
the people of that particular beat,
the whole county will have to vote
ION the question. After this, it is
more than probable that they will be
allowed TO say whether they will have
the open saloon or the dispensary,
bills having been presented which
will give them this privilege.
If the county unit system becomes
law. and it is more than probable
that it will, it will probably mean
that saloons will be driven out of
Pickens county. While the senti-
ment in one or two of the districts
of this county favors saloons, it is
believed that the sentiment of the
people of the whole county is opposed
TO it, and this will mean the end OF
the saloon regime at Pickensv1lie,
Carrollton, State Line and other
places. Not only the people of Ala
bama, but the people of this city and
section, are watching the fight, for
| it is a matter which vitality concerns
them.

BACKOWSKI BROTHERS BOUND
OVER

On Monday morning Justice Ger
ritz heard the postponed case of the
State vs.. John and Anton Backo vsk1.
They were brought before the j adge
on charge of obstru citing the, high-
way. r. j. Stroscheln was the COM
plainant, and put in the claim that
the Backowski Bros. had obstructeed
the reads 80 that teams could not pass
also that the said defendants had
guarded the passage with axes. AS the
road runs through their land, the
brothers claim the right to block the
road, but as the highway has been
used continually for twenty years. cer-
tain rights are acquired by the travel
ing public. A new road had been
started on the section line last fall.
but as 1t was not as yet lit for use,
the old road was used as before. A
number of teams were held up there
for several hours. All parties con-
cerned are residents of Culdrum.
The defendants q ai7ed examination
and were bound over to the await tins
action Of the grand jary, who will
ccnvene for the March term of court
net week. They were not put under
bonds, but will appear on their own
reoOgnizance.

Another
Parasite Victim

One of the most stubborn cases that
the medal profession hasmat with
for some time is that Mr.. Nick
Emmerick, of 1874 Louis Avenue,
Mill waukee. Wis. Mr.. Emmerick has
been suffering from what doctors said
was acute stomach stroubls, but treat-
ment OF the most skilled physicians
for that mslady had no effect.
In a recent letter regarding his
strange case he said: II was always
tired; my stomach bloated and the
slightest exertion made me sick, weak
and dizzy. A good appetite and a
good nights sleep was unknown to
me. When I awoke in the mornings
I had bad taste IN my mouth and .
coated tongue. I was quite dis:
coursged but when I heard Of che
wonderful benefits that were being
derived in similar cases from Mr..
Cooper's New Discovery medicine, I
decided to try It,
"A horrible tape worm, 60 feet
long, that had been sapping my life
away, passed from my system alive
and squirming efter I had taken
three doses of this medicine.
''Now have splendid appetite,
every trace Of stomach trouble has
disappeared, MY digestion is good I
sleep well and am gaining IN strength
every day.
Cooper's New Discovery is the
remedy that so quickly cured Mr..
Emmerick and which is curing stom-
ach and kidney trouble, Rheumatism
and blood diseases all over the coun-
try, sells for one dollar per bottle.
Cooper's Quick Relief. the assistant
remedy costs fifty cents. Both are
sold in this city by Mr., Cooper g
agent, Pioneer Drug Store. :.
