CITY HEALTH | FOR A YEAR Not a Second Death from l Contagion. l MORTALITY OF BLACKS HEAVY Excerpts of Sanitary Report for
 Year Just Ended. There Were f5i More Negro Deaths
 Thas Bftths and z1o More whites Were Born Than Died l Death Rate. 
MORTALITY OF BLACKS HEAVY

For the year just closed the old city fiscal year Montgomery's report of the sanitary department is grati- flying to the city officials and the off, ficers of the department. Part of the report. the whole having not yet been completed. shows that there was not one second death from contagious disease during the year. except from two cases of measles which Illness is not always classed as infection.
 The mortality report shows an in- crease of seventy nine deaths over Ia st year. total of Ss2. but the in- crease has been altogether among ne- groes and decrease of six deaths Is noted among the whites. After de- ductifig deaths due to violence, forty six in all. and estimating the city's population at 62,407. as given in the directory an average mortality Is found of 1337 per 1000.
 The total number of births for the year was $40, an increase of 62, and there were fifty-eight more births than deaths during the year. White births increased over white deaths by 210. Negro deaths increased over negro births 151.
 The total number of cases of conta- gious disease this year were less than the total number of deaths from the same causes the year preceding. The attention the city Is paying to sani- tation and care in inspection Is re- sponsible for the gratifying report. During the year there nave been no epideniics and the health report places Montgomery ahead of Northern and Eastern cities of the same population. even though they are not handicap ped by the swarms of negroes Mont gomery has to contend with.
 The extensive asphalt paving the city has had laid during the past few years has caused the sanitary depart ment some trouble in keeping 1t clean because whe nthe streets are sprinkled the dirt sticks and the sweepers are not able Lo remove 1t. and because of the dust 1t Is ifnpracticable to sweep without laying 1t in some manner. This has compelled the depar tment to re- quest of the city a flushing machine to be used for cleaning asphalt paved streets. and streets of like surface. the machine being similar 10 the present nt very much larger and the water Is driv- efl out with force, washing the matter in the roadway to the gutters to be d dra Isipd off.

Last Settlement With
 the Contractors.
PROFITS SMALL ON BUILDING
Balance of Few Dollars from
 Original $I5O,ooo Fund.
Aevrossiatien Divided Between Improv- ing the oIa statehouse, Buying site asa Buiiding New wisg
 .-Another wins to Come.

Announcement was made yesterday that the Alabama Capitol Building Commission. a creature of the Legis- lature of 1903, has made its last set clement with the contractors and ma. terial men for the construction and equipment of the new South wing of the Statehouse and everything is now considered as delivered" It may be said that the completion of this struc- ture practically releases the Conimis-, sion from further duties.
 The Commission originated in the Jelks administration and so economi- cally have the varied duties of the body been administered through both ministration that the total amount of "extras' recorded against the new south wing of the Capitol Is S1.500. The contract price was $51d29. It is said on very good authority that the con structors, c. c. Totherow and Com pany,. of Ensley, came out of the job with hardly enough margin of profit to pay for the time consumed in the erection of the addition to the old structure.
 The original appropriation which went with the birth of the Building Commission vas $150,00o. The expen- diture of this was divided between substantial improvements of the- ex- terior and interior of the old Cap itol Building, the purchase of the site for the new wing, it's construction and the beautifying of the grounds In the Improvements of the old edifice several thousand dollars were well expened; Some of the items included the repiaster.rg, decoration and re- pairs generally of the dome, the re- covering of the roof, replacing the plank floors with tile and the general renovation of the interior of several of the ofhces.
 It is a matter of hist 5ry now that $s5, 900 of the general appropriation went to the purchase of the site on which the south wing sta ds with the flower beds and sloping vista of green.
 When tlie Capitol Building Con1mis- sion adopted plans Tor the soatn ,s wins would in the near future appropriate another installment for the construc- ton of north wing to arttculate with it. In fact, it is considered that the statehouse is incomplete without the other wing.
 The personnel of the Commission has changed during the two adminis- tratione which tits work has covered. Tt began it's sessions while Dr. R. M. Cunningham was acting Governor and besides him as chairman consisted of the following other officers: Secretary of State E. R. McDavid, State Audit or T. l.. CowelE State Treasurer eJs Craig Smith and Attorney General Massey Wilson. The Commission as at present organized consists of the Governor, Secretary of State Frank N. Julian, State Auditor w.. ".

IN HANDS OF IRWIN
TRACER AFTER THREATENING LETTER TO JOHN CARTER.
EpistIs Was Ostensibly From . . Me-
 gro, Ike Williams, and Lan- guaHe To Fit Says, Beware

of Dark.
 Fearing that the letter which he re- ceived several days ago might be a little more serious than was at first thought, John Carter, a prominent farmer living in Chisholm. a suburb to the north of Montgomery, yesterday gave Assistant Postmaster Irwin the letter which he had received through the mails threatening his life.
 Mir. Carter received the letter several days ago, but thought nothing of the matter. He showed 1t to one or two friends. who also thought that 1t could be nothing more than a practical joke conceived by some acquaintance. They thought that the joke was in very bad taste, however, and advised that the matter be placed in the hands of the postal authorities that it might be thoroughly investigated. A Govern ment Inspector will be placed upon the matter to make a thorough investiga- ton.
 Mir. Carter stated yesterday that he did not know the Ike Williams" the signer of the letter, and that none or the negroes of his section of the city could possibly bear any i'll will against him. He expressed himself as not worried in the least over the matter. The letter which MT. Carter received through the malls is as follows: MT. John Carter:-
 Be careful and don't come home af- ter dark: something is going to hap pen to you soon. A great many ne- groes and white folks hate you very much. hear them talking mighty bad about you. Be on the lookout You are in danger. Don't many like you white or black. Take the advice of a negro friend and be very careful. They certainly talk mighty bad about you.
 Your friend.

The Two LISTS.

Lawrence Gilman in Harper's Weekly.
What were the defects of List S artistic
constitution? He was what Mr.. Henley
would have called "a convinced Roman
tiaue." There was always in him a trend
toward the theatrical in style and feeling
he seems always TO be falling away
from form of expression that is truly
dramatic toward an order of speech that
is swollen, bombastic. rhetorical. He
verges too often and too closely in his
music upon vulgarity, upon commences.
upon affectation and sentimentality. He
was. in fact, an amazing mixture of con-
fiicting Observation-Disclosures toward au-
thentic greatness and tendencies toward
triviality and pretense. He was greatly
gifted, hut not finely gifted. He had
fecundity. great eloquence. and he knew
how to compass grandeur. But there is
always present in his work-as il has been
elsewhere saba certain alloy: ideas of
unouestionahle power and beauty are jos
tied by conceptions which have their root
in an incurable disposition toward bombast
and fustian. He never lacked for ideas.
per Sc; but he was too ready TO accept
without close scrutiny whatever offered
itself for his creative purposes. He never
learned how to reject. His work is full
of magnificent CLEANS. but how often the
glamour and poetry of the idea is marred
by a ferVor that is cheap and easy. by
rhetoric that is ornamental rather than
essential and spontaneous! II is one of
the tragedies of art that Of the two
LISTS the lesser should have. on the
whole. prevailed: that List the innovator.
the pioneering creator, the music maker
OF induhitable genius, should have been
corrupted and impeded by Liszt the con-
