warehouse Belnw Promoted !.

Decatur. Aug. 4.-(SpeciaI. )--The Development Company of the Decaturs has appointed a committee to solicit subscriptions for stock in the cotton warehouse which P. M. Etch elberger of Anniston and others propose to build here if the required amount of stock is taken by Decatur's business men. Thus far the soliciting commit tee is meeting with fine success and 1t is believed that within the next few days the required amount of stock will be taken and that work can soon com mence on the warehouse.
 It Is the intention of the company to build a warehouse with a capacity of 10000 bales. The wareh ouse is to be built of reinforced cement, making 1t fire proof. and thus giving the lowest possible rate of insurance on the cot ton stored in the building.
 At the present time the Decaturs badly need a warehou for cotton, as there is mono here at this time. Such an enterprise would greatly increase the number of bales of cotton handled here. As 1t is, the Decaturs are the third largest cotton center in Alabama. and this is remarkable in view of the fact that there is not a cotton ware house here. The Gulf Compress alone handle on an average of 100000 bales of cotton here annually.

 He had nothing to give out concern ing the negotiations looking to the purchase of the Dimmick Pipe Company by the Sloss- sheffield Steel and Iron Pipe Company. which was rumored from New York couple of weeks ago |. 1t Is known. however. that a statement of the affairs of the Dimmick Company has been submitted to the President of the Sloss-Sheffield Company.
 1t was announced today that orders for pig iron had recently been received in the Birmingham district that would require delivery of iron into the fourth quarter of the year.

 The following facts from The Brook 1yn Eagle concerning the difference In the prices of articles in 1851 and now will be interesting to all those who have suffered the agony of paying bills.
 An old memorandum book has just come to light in which some interest ing prices are recorded. They make us groan. As we read them we begin to believe what the old people tel us that former times were Indeed bet ter than these.
 The woman who kept this account book paid, to be sure. $3.25 to go from Westfield Mass, and $3 more to so from New York to Philadelphia. but she paid only 2s cents dozen for her washing--beautifully ironed and brought to her door--and siO a month for her board, and says that it was good. too.
 She had her daguerreotype taken, a single picture. and paid s1.50 TOT 1t. (We can improve on that price.) She bought a pair of shoes for SIPS and had q dress cut for 37 Ia cents The accounts bristle with half and quarter cents. Things cost sometimes 'hp," sometimes a "levy." The former was 1-4 cents. the latter 12 i-2 ct..ss.
 She bought pair of rubbers for S7 leg cents, and wrote them down as gums" For her pew rent at church she paid 66 2-S cents a quarter. Her gowns were made of "debage," de iaine," and "muil,'' and she paid $i76 for the fitting and making of one. She wore Congress gaiters and paid the exorbitant price of s2.25 for a pair. She bought a copy of Agnes; the Key to Her Cofln," a book which many of us remember to have seen lying on parlor tables even in the seventies. It was considered a wonderful work in

soft prInk standr Immune.

Birmingham, Aug. 4--(Special. )-- Soft drink stands having whiskey or other beverages on the premises are not violating the prohibition law, ac- cording to a ruling. of Judge Feagin of the Police Court.
 An employe of the soft drink stand operated on First Avenue between Eighteenth and Nineteenth Streets was brought before the Police Court Tues day morning on the charge of violat- ing the prohibition law. The evidence showed that the officer making the ar rest discovered a vessel containing some whiskey on the premises. He took a small portion of the liquid and poured 1t in a small bottle which was brought as evidence in the case.
 The oficer testified that he didn't see the man sell any of the whiskey or give any away.
 Judge Feagin held that the law did not prohibit the whiskey from being kept in the place. Chief of Police Bodeker made the arrest fel order that he might determine whether 1t was unlawful for the whiskey to be kept on the premises. He asked Judge Feagin specifically about the matter but was told the defendant had violated no law.
 Chief~of Police Bodeker said that in many instances the police were baffled in their effort to enforce the prohibi- ton law. He said that in some soft drink stands a pitcher of whiskey Is kept on a lower shelf behind the coun- ter and when an officer comes in the whiskey is thrown in the sink.
 The ruling of Judge Feagin has caus- cd quite deal of interest.

A SENTRY CHALLENGES
 EMPEROR OF GERMANY

swinmound. Aug. 4.-Emperor Will liam's new style of wearing his mus tache caused him to be refused admis- sion to one of the coast forts here just before he departed on nis trip o Swe- den.
 The Emperor, accompanied by several officers, the entire party bting in civ Han dress. approached -he sentry on duty, but he prevented their further progress.
 His Majesty was much amused at the occurrence and again vainly tried to pass. Then he said to the sentry.
 You must let me enter. Don't you know me? I am the Emperor.
 The sentry then looked more closely at the Emperor not quite treasured but evidently recognizing Ills Ma1esty,S features, as he presented arms and al- lowed him to pass. The Emperor re- ported the occurrence to the officers of the guard at the port. praising the soldiers sense of duty and reco nIr s'lo- ing his promotion.
 During his stay at Corfu in the spring. Emperor William accidentlly burned off one end of his moustache, and decided thereafter to wear 1t straight instead of with the ends point ed upward in eagle wing style.

 When Case Was Called.

When Case Was Called.
 Birmingham. Aug. Especial D. The preliminary trial of R. W. Thomp- son, the young man who shot and killed E. W. Robertson in Housmann's drug store last week, the killing growing out of jealousness over the love for the same young woman and anger over a fight had a short time before in public park, was continued this after noon until Wednesday morning a week. A large number of friends of the ac- cused and the deceased were in the court of Justice H. B. Abernathy this afternoon and the State announced ready for the trial.
 After the witnesses were called some absences were noted and the attorney for the defense asked for a continuance for a week, which was granted. Mem bers of the military now in encamp- ment at Chickamauga are needed as witnesses in the cases. Because of the prominence of the young men involved the accused and the deceased. the trial promises to be attended by a crowd that will tax the little court room. Able attorneys have been engaged on both sides. and the case will be fought through every Inch of the ground.

LARGE CROWD PRESENT.
Tent Services OF Highland Avenue Are
 Well Attended,

Large crowds continue to gather at the tent on Highland Avenue to hear Evangelist Dunn. Last night the au- dience listened to an excellent address. the subject of the discourse being: "we shall be like Christ for we shah see Him as He is."
 The exploitation of this theme by MT. Dunn was admirable and his ap- plication of the principles to be found he directed chiefly to sinners. The speaker held his. audience in perfect attention. and the desired effect seemed to have been produced at the conclu- sion of the services.
 Those who attend the tent meetings regularly are rapidly enlarging their knowledge of the Scriptures. The dis cussion of questions propounded through the question box brings out many of the richest thoughts to be found in the Bible.
 The services are announced to con- tinue through the week and the pub- lie is cordially invited to attend.
