Tribute From North Carolina.

Charlotte, N. C., June 24-The Asso- ciated Press announced to the democratic state convention in session here today the death of former President Cleveland, and all business was immediately sus- pended and former Gov. Thomas B. Jar wis, temporary chairman of the conven- tion, offered the following resolution, which was adopted, the 5000 delegates and spectators rising in a body with bowed heads.
 Resolved, That the democratic party of North Carolina Tn convention assem- bled, has heard with profound and sin cere regret of the death of Grover Ceve- land, three times the nominee of this party and twice the democratic President of the United States. We recognize in Grover Cleveland one of the greatest statesmen who has figured in public life since the war and in his death we feel that the south has lost one who showed himself a friend to 1t and one who did more to bring about reunited country than any other public official in his day.
 That we tender our sympathy to the family of former President Cleveland and direct that a copy of these resolutions be sent to Mrs. Cleveland, and in respect to President Cleveland's memory that this convention do adjourn until 4:30 o'clock this afternoon"

GOVERNOR SMITH
 ISSUES MESSAGE

Atlanta, June 24.-The state legislature met today for it's regular annual ses- sion. Senator James T. Flynt of Griffin was elected president of the senate to succeed the late John w. Akin, whose death occurred last October.
 After listening to Governor Smith mes sage both houses adjourned until tomor- row.
 In his message Govefnor Smith urges that prohibition be given a fair trial and recommends that no effort be made 10 change the existing law, except to per feet it.
 Referring to the work of the railroad commission, the governor says the com mission has been wise and conservative and concludes as follows:
 Permit me again to call your attention to the fact that unless the states perform their part of the task of supervision and regulation over corporations, the national government will absorb the entire power and centralization will follow at a pace so rapid that the reserve powers of the state will be greatly in danger"
 Governor Smith urges honest elections and recommends the passage of legisla- ton which will make it a crime to pay the taxes of men that they may register and suggests a law similar to the fed eral liability act.

ADJUSTMENTS.
At the BiIou.

The offering at the Bijou theatre this week is a fine revival of "Sapho,' done by the Baldwin Melville company. The play is staged in a manner that is surprising, when one considers that the production was made for only one weeks use and for a repertoire company. It is seldom that a road company carries better comple- ment of scenery. The ball scene in the first act is elaborate, to say the least, and one of the most artistic sets ever shown at the Bijou. The entire play is staged in a highly creditable manner and no detail of a first-class production has been over looked. The members of the Baldwin Melville company have in "Sapho" play that is well suited to exploit their va- ried ability Miss Wheatley is doing some of her best work as Sapho. while MT. O'Connor, MT. Julian, MT. Forbes Miss Gleason and other members of the com pany lend valuable support. "Sapho' is a stirring play, and that that occupies 9 field of it's own. The love story told is che of Irresistible attraction. There will be matinee this afternoon and the usual performance tonight. Next week the Baldwin Melville company will present an elaborate revival of 'The Two Orphans" considered by many critics the finest melo- drama ever written.

BIG MASONICPICNI AT
 NORTH B'HAM PARK
Members From All Over District At tend Installation of Brighton
 Lodge Officers.

Yesterday North Birmingham park was the scene of one of the largest picnics ever held in this vicinity. It was held by the Masonic lodge of Brighton, but nearly all of the Masons of this district were in attendance, together with their families. In addition to the feasting and general good time, the lodge held their annual installation of officers for the en- suing year.
 At 1 o'clock a very large basket din- ner was enjoyed under the large trees, which are In abundance in this park. Nothing occurred to dampen the good feeling except the thunder storm late in the afternoon, but as nearly all had left by that time, only a few were inconven- fenced. All of the Masons are loud in their praise of the ladies who provided the dinner and also the committee in charge.

WHITE BOYS HELD
 BURGLARY CHARGE
ARREST OF TWO YOUNG MEN IN PRATT CITY CAUSES A SENSA- TIoN-MAsoNs INSTALL NEWLY ELECTED OFFICERS.

Two white boys, Homer Hayes and Walter Staas, were arrested yesterday at Pratt City on the charge of enter ing and robbing the store of Sam Levi. It will be recalled that about two weeks ago Levi left town, closing up his store that had been damaged by fire until the insurance inspector could arrive and make his investiga- tion. Upon his return he found that some one had robbed the store dur ing absence. He immediately reported the burglary to Chief of Police Harts- field. who began making a search for the guilty parties The two boys were arrested on this charge.
 The police found two suits of clothes and a large quantity of hose, besides several other odds and ends at the home of Staas and this excited their suspicious. They arrested Staas in con nection with the Levi robbery and later arrested Hayes The goods have been identified as some of those taken frorn the store These are both white boys and their arrest created quite a sem sation.
 The Masons of Pratt City and the vicinity held their annual picnic at tfe new city park yesterday. One of the largest crowds that was ever in attendance In Pratt City was at the park during the day. In addition to the picnic the installation of officers was held. Everyone present was in high spirits in spite of the heat At noon a large basket dinner was spread in a shady spot. to be enjoyed by the picnickers. Late yesterday afternoon a heavy electrical storm came up which in small way dampened the enjoy ment of those present.
 The following officers were installed today the installation services being under the direction of Past Worshipful Master Rev. T. o. Jones of Huffman: T. l.. Stovall, orshipful master; J. T. Masngale, se-1or warden; J. B. Smart. junior warden Dr. R. r. Lovelady. trasurer; D. R. Dickerson, secretary; w. F.

SUBCOMMITTEE Is IN MORE TROUBLE Internal Strife Causes Six Min
 ute Session MEET AGAIN NEXT MONDAY Committee of Two Named To Do the Work and Report Back To Full
 Meeting of Arrangement
 Committee.
MEET AGAIN NEXT MONDAY

The arrangement committee for the democratic primary to be held in Birmlng- ham on July 27 held a six-minute execu- tive session last night in the city hall and adjourned to meet again next Monday.
 Chairman Malcolm Stewart called the meeting to order and presided over the session. The other four members, B. H. Mooney, H. B. Abernathy, John H. Miller and w. H. Johnston, were all present and took part in the proceedings.
 The only action taken by the committee was the appointment of a subcommittee, consisting of B. H. Mooney and W. H. Johnston who were instructed to get lists of managers, clerks and registrars for the election from the candidates, make their selections and prepare a list themselves, to estimate the cost of the election, as sess the fees, decide on the time of reg istration, set the time limit for candi- dates entrance, and to report all their actions to the other committee next Mon day.
 While this was the real cause of the meeting and adjournment there Is quite an interesting fight on, and both sides
  strength While Stewart was appointed chairman of the committee by Chairman Mullin, there Is a big move on foot to rnseat him. Two members of the com mittee claim that they can elect any chairman they please, while the third Is wavering in his opinion and wanted fur ther time.
 A fight is being made on Stewart by the self-established big power in the Sixth ward, where the prohibitionists are taking a very active hand. This is Stewards ward. If the prohibtionists are successful in defeating Stewart they think they will have the machinery in that ward tied up and will be able to appoint their own registrars, managers and clerks.
 At the meeting next Monday the fight will come to head. In case the men seeking to unseat Stewart are unsuccess- full in getting the third vote they will leave him in the chair and matters will run on smoothly.
 The committee will probably set the time for registration after the county registrars sit during the first week in July as these certificates are necessary before a man can register to vote in the city primary. All voters will have to hold both a ward and state certifi- cate. Any man who fails to register this time will be turned from the polls with out vote.
 All candidates who wish to make sug- gestions for election and registration off cers are expected to send lists in mail to either B. H. Mooney at the Birming- ham News or w. H. Johnston at 9l0 Brown Marx building immediately

 The muster was to have been held on Thursday night two weeks ago. but, ow- ing to the fact that the Confederate re- union parade was held on that day and as the militia participated in the march, the muster was postponed until the last Thursday of the month, which falls on tonight.

FAMILY OF FIVE All Drank Coffee From Infancy.

It Is common thing in this country to see whole families growing up with nerv- ous systems weakened by coffee drinking.
 That is because many parents do not realize that coffee contains a drug-caf- feine-which causes the trouble.
 There are five children In my family" writes an Iowa mother, "all of whom drank coffee from infancy up to two years ago.
 My husband and l had heart trouble and were advised to quit coffee. We did so and began to use Postum. We now are doing without medicine and are en- tirely relieved of heart trouble.
 (Caffeine causes heart trouble when con- tinually used as in coffee drinkinge. [ Our eleven-year-old boy had a weak d. gestion from birth, and yet always craved and was given coffee.

High Tribute In Berlin.

Berlin, June 25.-Although most of the Berlin newspapers confine themselves to publishing record of MT. Cleveland's career, several of them pay high tribute to him in their editorial columns. The Neuesten Nachrichten says: Cleveland gained renown among partisans and ad- versaries and a standard, high prin- cipaled patriot.
 The Tageblatt says: MT. Cleveland was the personification of the modest, quiet fearless, honorable American type, which latterly has been pushed into the background"
 The paper adds Although it sounds strange, Cleveland against his own will was morally the founder of the present American imperialism"

 Up Shades Neunfain

In the construction of the Shades moun- tain road, Jefferson county is laying one of the finest highways in this part of the country. The new road runs from Shades valley, Just opposite Twenty-f1rst street, to the top of Shades mountain, going by way of the Trousdale property.
 In speaking of the new road, County Surveyor P. 8. Miller said: "At present the best road across Shades mountain is the one leading to oxmoor. and the grade of this way up the mountain Is some thing like 15 per cent. Not long ago I had occasion to go over this road In an automobile. The engine was cut down to it's lowest speed and when we reached the top of the mountain the machinery was hot,
