MExIcALPs POSTMASTER DEAD.

Jose Galaviz, postmaster at Mexi- cali, died last Sunday afternoon while at his office. Death was due to heart failule. Galaviz, who was 26 years of age, was a nephew of A. J. Flores, and had gone to MeXicali only a few months ago to accept the position of postmaster He had been in good health, apparently, until his sudden ill- ness on Sunday, when he dropped dead in his office. The remains were inferred at MeXicali. Galaviz figured recently in the alleged revolutionary" excitement at MeXicali. He discov- cred robbers attempting to rob the postoffice safe and strong box and fired on them at close range, but with out striking them. He believed them to be "revOlutiOnists.'

Queer Positions of Hearts.

There Is one curious fact which not every body notices about the common. finger long, green caterp,llars of ous larger moths. Their hearts, instead of being in front, are at the back of the aody and extend along the entire ssngth of the animal. !, One can see the heart distinctly througig the thin sh .n And can watch its slow beat, which starts at the tail and moves forward tc ,he head. Hearts of this sort reaching from bead to tail are not :t all uncom

CUTTING AFFRAY AT
 MOORE'S SPRINGS Hugh ChipIey Has Dangerous
 Wound In Breast WORK ON BESSEMER ROADS Improvements on County Highways Are Being Made In Many Direc-
 tions-Negro Killed at
 DoIomite.
 

Bessemer. July 4.-(Special.) l.)-A seri- ous cutting affray occurred about 330 o'clock this afternoon near Moore s Springs, as a result of which Hugh Chipley is lying at Reeders hospital with an ugly stab wound in his breast, just over the heart, and Eaton Gibson is apparently in hiding, for up to this writing the officers have not been able to locate him.
 The following account of the affray was given by parties present: These two men had gone off with about four other to a secluded spot; for the pur- pose of taking drink, and while doing so, it is said that Gibson made some very uncomplimentary remarks ab bout a lady. and Chipley began to remon- strate with him regarding his remarks toward women in general. when Gib- son made the affair personal and went far enough as to provoke Chipley into knocking him down. The statement goes that it was after Chipley had knocked Gibson down and was on top of him that Gibson used his knife, stab ping Chipley in the breast. The wound is an ugly one, but is not thought to be dangerous, unless unforeseen com plications set in.
 Chipley was taken to the hospital at Feeders, where his wound is re- ceiving attention, and Gibson has not been seen since.

All Roads Being Improved.

When all the work that the Board ot Revenue has ordered done on the roads leading into Bessemer is finished, the highways in this part of the county will be In excellent condition. About one mile of the new road recently opened, connecting the Fourth avenue road with the Eastern Valley road which runs from Birmingham to Tus- caloosa, passes through a swamp, and is usually in bad condition. An order has been granted to macadamize this road from Flint church across the swamp to Pleasant Hill church. This will put the road in fine condition all the way
 The Bessemer and Toadvine road is being macadamized in Meek's beat clear out to the Walker county line The Blue Creek road, which runs from Bes- semer to Johns, a distance of about 1 1 miles, is being nlacadamized, two large crews of men rushing the work as rapidly as possible.
 The bridge across the Warrior 1t Jasper ford Is about completed. This bridge is very substantial one, cost ing about $20.000. Six or eight other bridges have been ordered built in this end of the county, and they are all to be of concrete and steel
 From the above it can be seen that the roads lead into districts that are splendid feeders to Bessemer and the making of the much needed repairs will greatly beEeft the entire district.

 The particulars gathered from the wounded negro are that a white man came to negro entertainment yesterday evening at Dolomite and proceeded to raise rough house, fourishing his pistol around and shooting promiscuousy, when one of the negroes took his pistol away from him. He is said to have gone away and obtained a Winchester rife and lay In waiting alongside the road, and when the two above-named negroes came along opened fire on them, shooting McMiller in the abdomen, inflicting a wound from which he died a few hours later, and wounding Gayle in the heel No particu- lars as to who the white man was could be learned, and at this writing he is still at large.
