WANTED SQUIRREL DOCTOR.
Referred from Park TO City Police,
WOman's Quest Fails.

When a refined and apparently very
sympathetic woman appeared at police
headquarters yesterday afternoon and
asked the officer in charge where the
squirrel doctor could be found, another
unique request was added to the already
long list of unusual inquiries which have
been a part of the routine Of that Office.
About o'clock yesterday evening the
woman appeared at the Office, and in a
sorrcwful tone told that one of the squlr-
reid in Judiciary Square, Just across the
street, had injured its leg and needed
the attention of a squirrel doctor or some
one who was familiar with the treatment
of that species of animals. The officer ad-
vised Ter TO speak to the park police.
With a disheartened look. the woman
stated that she had hunted out the Of
ficer mentioned, but he could not give
her the desired information, and had re-
ferred her to the city police, The officer
In charge at headquarters finally con-
fessed that if there is such a person on
the city pay roll. he had never heard Of
him.

HOT FIGHT BEGINS
FOR FIFTH AVENUE
TWO COMPANIES SEEK RAILWAY
FRANCHISE AND 1T is SAID THE
! CITY WILL DEMAND $4,000 FOR
THE PRIVILEGE.

\ Between the desire of the Birmingham
Railway, Light and Power company and
the Tidewater Development company to
put track on Fifth avenue, 1t Is evil
dent that it is only a matter of time
before that thoroughfare, as yet virgin
to the rail. will be traversed by street
cars.
1t is evident. too, that before either
of the companies is given a franchise
there will occur a split In the aldermanic
board. Some of the aldermen are of the
opinion that the city and the citizens
would be more benefited by the granting
of a franchsce to the Birmingham Rail
way Light and Power company and
others favor the Underwater company.
Fifth avenue is the only important
thoroughfare of the city on which no
tracks are laid. Inasmuch, however, as
the Tidewater company has asked for a
franchise for its line, and the BirmingE
ham Railway, Light and Power company
states that 1t stands ready to pay for
a franchise, 1t Is evident that such an
important avenue as Fifth cannot much
longer keep the tracks away. Some of
the members of the council realizing that
the Tidewater company will be a great
developer for the district are prone to
grant-the franchise to that company.
Others favor the old company
But ON one question the entire board
seems agreed. Before either is awarded
the franchise tho city will demand very
stiff price. Fifty thousand dollars was
the amount unofficially stated yesterday

From reports circulated in the city hall

the Mayor, the run1bling of disruption
in the City Council anent the much dis
cussed license for retail saloons is dis
tlnctly heard.
1t is said that resolution, carrying

will be presented at the council meeting
tonight. 1t is said that this resolution
will provide for the inauguration into the
city schedule of the state and county
rate Of license In all instances where a
single person desires more than one IL
cense.
AT present. the one license Is granted
for $500, and a person getting two IL
censes authorizing him to sell to whites
and colored patronage must pay $500.
The license question for saloons has
been much discussed in council commit
tees and there has been considerable
trouble and wrangling. 1t is said that
the resolution will require the city to
grant two licenses to one applicant for
twice the state and county license for
one saloon. The state and county license
is s52575. If the resolution should carry,
a person could get two licenses for
