fighting until it goes back. Jasper is the biggest commercial center in the state, for it's population Although we had ex- aetly 2502 people, it is the llvest, best, big gest little town in the whole state. More people get off and on the trains there than in the average town of as many thousands.
 We people down there are also going after the Southern railroad. We gingered along with them for while, but If that Sheffield train does not go back on pretty soon things will be doing sure enough. The people of Alabama are going to stand by the railroads that stand by them, and are ready to fight for their rights"
 When question about Walker county 8 road conditions Capt. Jack Cranford said: "Walker has been taking great in- terest in the agitation for good roads. We have no macadam roads, but good engineering, and careful road building gives us a fairly good system of roads. We have learned how to get around the hills without climbing a pole, and our roads are carefully drained, the crowns are good, and we hear little complaint.
 "For a county which has never had d bond issue, I doubt whether another can boast such carefully constructed high ways"

Capt Jack Cranford Boosts Walker Capital and Says County Has Good Highways Considering That Bond Issue
 Was Never Floated

Jack Cranford of Jasper was in Bir- mingham last night, on his way home from Montgomery.
 ''I have been down before the railroad commission fighting for the Winfield ac- commodation," he said Tt would be an outrage for the Frisco to take off this train. Jasper alone furnishes enough pas sengers daily to warrant it's being con- tinued.
 ''rhe railroads of Alabama are going about the curtailment of expenses in the wrong manner, according to my opinion. They are paying large salaries for dozens of men with whom they could dispense and never know the difference. The cities of Alabama could do without their up- town passenger and freight offices far better than with the trains themselves. Why, some of the officers have six or eight assistants who could do the work of eight such offices.
 "The Winfield accommodation carries the shoppers to and from Birmingham, and is the only convenient train for that purpose. When I went down on it the last time the conductor told me he had 1Os passengers. If they take it off, we people in Jasper are going to Keep on

CAME TO JAIL WITH
 HATPIN IN BREAST
NIGHT WARDEN HAS DIFFICULTY IN PULLING PIN FROM THE FLESH-vlCTIM WAS IN A SEMI CONSCIOUS CONDITION.

What is supposed to have been an at tempted suicide occurred at the city jail yesterday morning when a woman was locked up on a charge of embezzlement.
 The woman was brought to the jail in semi-conscious condition and had to be carried from the patrol wagon into the jail. Once inside she called Night Warden Williamson's attention to hat pin which had been run through the yoke of her shirtwaist and asked MT Williamson to pull it out.
 Warden Williamson caught hold of the head of the pin and when he attempted to pull it out it slipped from his fingers. He took a firmer hold and with some difficulty pulled the pin out He noticed that it was covered with blood and found that it had been run its entire length into the woman's breast. As soon as he had drawn the pin out the woman tried to secure it again, evidently with the in- tention of stabbing herself with it. Ap- parently- she did not suffer from the ef- fleets of the wound, inflicted at some tune before she was taken to Jail She "ouio CT no explanation of the affair.
 The woman was tried in the police court yesterday on the charge of embezziement against her and was acquitted.

ARREST NEGRO FOR
 PENSION FRAUDS
Man Caught Here Will Be Taken To Mobile By Deputy
 Marshal.

United States Deputy Marshal Coker will leave for Mobile this morning with Andy Bradley, colored, wanted on a charge of impersonating a pension of- ficer.
 Bradley finished serving a sentence at Flat Top Tuesday night. It was learned that he was wanted by the federal au- thorities at Mobile, and orders were issued to hold him until the authorities here could come after him. He was brought to Birmingham yesterday morning and con- fined in the county jail.
 It is~alleged that the negro obtained money by false pretense through imper- sonating a pension officer. Bradleys s method is said to have been to visit parties who claimed to be entitled to pensions and tell them that if they would put up a certain amount he would pro- cure the pension for them. The indict- ment against him is one of four or five counts He will be turned over to the Mo- bile authorities today.
