WOULD REVIVE
 FAMOUS PLAY
"Juius Caesar Was Once Produced By Local Talent and Made
 Big Hit.

There is a movement on foot to revive the play of Julius Caesar which was presented here a number of years ago by local talent.
 Since the presentation of that play, in which B. M. Allen played the role of Caesar" it has been talked of in Bir- mingham and it's fame has been noised abroad.
 In the original cast were some of the best known people in Birmingham. Of that number all are still in Brming- ham, save three, who are deceased, and w. F. Smith of Atlanta. who played the role of Cassius. Mr. Smith was in Bir- mingham last night, and stated that he would be glad to return to Birmingham to go through the rehearsals and to fig ure in the play.
 Concerning the play there has been a standing joke in Birmingham since the day it was presented by the original cast Trebonius, played by w. M Drennen, is expected to appear at one point, and inquire for Cassius The story teller quotes MT. Drennen as asking in a long, droll tone, 'Cassius, where are you at?"
 It is understood that Mrs R. F. John ston is endeavoring to revive the play to be presented by the original and fam for Q charitable cause. Those to whom the matter has been mentioned are en- thusiastic in favor of the movement.

REVIVED AT LAST.
Emaciated Woman Restored By
 Proper Food.

The amount of harm done from eating food which lacks the nourishing clements or Is in such form that the system can't absorb it, is much greater than many per- sons even suspect.
 The harm can't be corrected by drugs, either There must be complete change in the dietary-the cause of the trouble must be removed.
 "I have been constant sufferer from stomach trouble, constipation and neural gia for the past 14 years, writes Mich. lady. "and the past year became tired of life, of everybody and everything.
 'The best doctors and several weeks at q sanitarium afforded me only tenn porary relief. Finally an attack of the grippe caused me to give up hope of ever being we'll again. I was growing weaker and more emaciated every day.
 At last a doctor advised me to try some predigested food, as nothing would stay on my stomach. My husband sent for some Grape-Nuts, of which ate a lit- tie with milk. and then awaited the usual results.
 My stomach did not reject this food, and from that time on for several weeks I lived on Grape-Nuts and milk. l felt no pain whatever in my stomach. ny health gradually came back and in i've weeks gained 20 pounds. I derived more strength from Grape-Nuts than l ever did from a meat and potato diet There's a Reason"

WILL ARGUE CASE !. DURING WHOLE WEEK WeakIey Will Resume First
 Thing Tomorrow SPO0NER STEAKS TUESDAY At the Conclusion of Arguments In the Railroad Case Jones Will Require Week To Reach
 Conclusion.
SPO0NER STEAKS TUESDAY

After attempting by argument to un- knot one of the most intricate legal tan gles that has ever been presented to the courts in this state. Judge Samuel D. Weakley and II. C. selheimer, two of the states counsel in the railroad litigation pending before Judge Thomas G. Jones oI the federal court, returned to Birming ham last night.
 Their return does not denote however, that the arguments are concluded. Judge Weakley stated that although he had spo- ken eight hours in presenting the argu- ment of the state, he was not done, and that on the courts converting Monday morning at 10 o'clock, he would again take up the thread where he left off Sat urday afternoon.
 Judge Weakleys argument, therefore. will be concluded about Il o'clock Mon day. He began his speech Friday after noon and occupied the floor throughout Saturday. He was completely worn out on his arrival in Birmingham last night, and will spend today resting up for the strenuous battle that will last throughout. the ensuing week.
 
 day morning." stated the judge last night, "the entire argument of the state and the railroads will be finished on the prelimi- nary questions.
 Then the case of athe stockholders of the Central of Georgia, represented by Senator Spooner, will be opened by the senator's speech. This will probably oc- cupy the entire day. Immediately aftes it's finish, or most probably Tuesday morning, I will reply to his speech, and it is likely that Tuesday will be so occu- pied. Wednesday, the arguments on the technical questions and points will be ta ken up, and the entire number of speeches will be repeated.
 T am confident that the argument will take up the entire week. It is my opin- ion that after the arguments, Judge Jones will take the case under consideration. It may be several days. probably week, be- fore the decision is rendered."
 Other than the above, Judge Weakley had nothing to say He could not, of course, make a prediction as to the out come of the momentous tangle. He inti- mated that the battle, while being fierce ly fought, was breaking well all the way down the line, and that both sides were contending bitterly for each inch of ground.
 MT. Selheimer, another of the states at torneys, paid Judge Weakley a fine com- pliment last night by stating that his presentation of the states argument was truly masterful.
  Birmingham, who were aligned on the side of the railroads, did not return last night. They will rest up in Montgomery; and return to the battle Monday morn ing, with courage and strength renewed.

CONFER SUFFERING
 FROM SEVERE GOLD
THE GOVERNOR RETURNS FROM NORTH ALABAMA COUNTIES, WHERE HE HAS BEEN HEARING PETITIONS FOR SCHOOL.

Governor B. B. Comer after passing the week with the Alabama high school locating board, returned to Birmingham yesterday at noon, completely worn out, and suffering from the effects of a se- we're cold.
 Governor Conner did not appear in Montgomery during the entire week, and, therefore, was absent while the state s attorneys were endeavoring to dissolve the injunction of the federal court re- straining the railroad legislation of the recent sessions of the legislature.
 However, after spending a couple of days in Birmingham, he will return to Montgomery and will probably attend some of the sessions of Judge Jones' court Last week. when stating that he would not be in Montgomery during the weeks session of the case, the governor stated that he and the legislature had done all they could, and the enforcement of the laws was in the hands of the individuals and courts.
 During the week the high school board visited Lawrence. Winston and Franklin counties, and heard petitions of various municipalities for the location of the high schools, the support of which the state will aid The greater part of the week was occupied in journeys through the country by carriage and horseback. The governor states that he enjoyed the trip, although it was rather rough to one un- accustomed to such arduous modes of travel. Superintendent of Education Harry C. Gunnels was compelled to leave Governor Conner and Auditor Brandon in Russellvlle. He returned to Montgom- cry. to which city he was followed yes terday by General Brandon. Governor Conner rested in Birmingham.
 Last week concluded the set programme announced two weeks ago. In the two weeks the party visited dozen North Alabama counties. heard petitions for the high schools, and made addresses. Everywhere the gentlemen were happily received, and in more than half a dozen instances were banqueted.
 The governor announced himself as well pleased with the work last night. "Ev- anywhere we were heartily welcomed, and

FARMER HAS
 LEARNED LESSON
Seymour Says That the Price of Cot ton Depends Entirely On
 the Producer.

w. H. Seymour. president of the Ala bama division of the Southern Cotton associa ton, was in Birmingham for a few hours yesterday. In addition to be- ing president of the Alabama division, MT. Seymour is director in the department of cotton statistics, and collaborates with the census bureau in compiling the re- port on the Alabama crop.
 ''The farmer is learning a lesson," stated MT. Seymour and that is that he is in control of the situation, and his ac- tions alone set the price of cotton.
 .'The crop will not be greater than Il 100000 bales," he continued, and as the demand is for 100000 it Is easy to believe that the present price of the staple will go higher The selling of cot ton for future delivery has kept prices down, but this practice is now a matter of the past
 Among other things MT. Seymour stated that the Japanese were buying more American cotton than ever before. He was returning to Montgomery after hav- ing made a trip to Sumter county.

/. p. Carlisle Talks Ab0uf
 Gambling M Birmingham

J. D. Carlisle. upon whose evidence the present investigation by the grand jury of gambling in Birmingham Is based, had this to say yesterday about gambling:
 Since 1t has become a second nature of the American people to take a chance, and this Is especially so in Birmingham, l think it might not be amiss to give a short sketch of how the business is conducted here.
 T wish 1t understood that it is not my purpose to knock any officials, either city or county neither will I use the name sof any gambler unless in the end I am forced too; neither have I lost any money which I want back. It has be- come common to say, well, he has lost money when any one attempts to say that gambling is being conducted or ex- plain how it Is conducted. It is for this reason that officers have trouble in ob- taining information against gambling houses.
 My objec. is to give the public the facts in the case and leave it to them as to whether they will stand for such conditions as exist here.
 "The first thing l will attempt to do will be to show how the gambling rooms are fitted up. When a man decides to run a gambling house he rents from one to four rooms in some hotel or over some saloon. After he secures a place he proceeds to furnish 1t. The floor must be carpeted. There must be tables and chairs, wardrobe, office desk and safe to lock up dice and other gambling para phernalia. Formerly a round table was used for card games but the officers broke up this practice by taking away the tables and burning them. They now use long table such as dining room extension table, This table is covered with cloth to prevent noise. Formerly the regular craps table was used for craps games but as this table costs consider able money and the officers began the practice of seizing them and using them against the place as evidence and then burning them, they were discarded and the ordinary pool table has been brought into use. When the alarm is turned in they quickly change from the craps game to an ordinary game of pool and 1t is amusing to see how innocent the gamers can look when the officers come in.
 "The old style roulette wheel, which was made with a wheel and table to- gether was too large to be hidden or locked up and when Austin and Wier began to seize and burn them this wheel was discarded and a small wheel which can be used on any ordinary table was put in. This small wheel can be easily locked up in the safe
