Edward Wilcox, the young man who
was found dead in the field near Ad-
ans where he had been plowing, yes
terday morning, did not die of heart
failure. but had been kicked to death
by one of the horses he was driving.
This fact was brought out by an in
vestigation conducted by Coroner
Ralph Folsom. who went to Adams
last evening for that purpose.
When the body was found by a
man who had been plowing in an ad-
joining field, it was not moved. AS
the young man was lying on his face
II could not be seen that his fore
head was crushed. When Coroner
Folsom took charge OF the body 1t was
found the young man had been kick
ed squarely in the orehead, the force
OF the blow crushing the skull. As
the imprint of the horses hoof was
plainly visible there was no doubt as
to the cause OF death.
1t is presumed that Wilcox had
climbed down from the plow seat to
adjust the harness in some manner
and that while behind the horses one
of them kicked him. After killing
their driver the horses went around
the field for three rounds before the
plow buried itself in the ground so
deep they could go no further and
were forced to stop.
The remains were prepared for
burial by Baker & Folsom and ship
ped to California, this afternoon. 4,

KNOW NOW And Will Never Forget the Experience

The coffee thinker, who has suffered and then been completely relieved by changing from coffee to Postum knows something valuable.
 He or she has no doubt about it. A California lady says:
 ''I learned the truth about coffee in a peculiar way My husband who has for years been of Q very bilious tempera- ment decided to leave off coffee and give Postum a trial and as did not want the trouble of making two beverages for meals I concluded to try Postum, too, and the results have been that while my husband has been greatly benefited, I have myself received even greater bene- fit.
 "When I began to drink Postum I was thin in flesh and very nervous. Now I actually weigh Is pounds more than I did at that time and I am stronger phy- sically and in my nerves. while husband is free from all his ails.
 "We have learned our little lesson about coffee and we know something about Postum too, for we have used Postum now steadily for the last three years and we shall always continue to do so
 s'We have no more use for coffee-the drug drink. We prefer Postum and health"

PLANS
 UNIQUE LECTURES To Inform Birmingham Citizens on Local Enterprises TALKS BY LEADING MEN Steneopticon Views Will Be Used To Assist in Telling Citizens All
 About Things the District
 Contains.
TALKS BY LEADING MEN

Dr. J. H. Phillips has inaugurated plan to give the people of Birmingham working knowledge of their own home. which is meeting with general approval, and will be the most attractive educa- tional feature of the winter. A complete stereopticon outfit has been installed in the High school auditorium. and by means of specially prepared films he pro- poses to give the public an inside under standing of the leading industrial and wealth-producing factors of the district.
 The leading men in every branch will be requested to deliver the lectures and special endeavor will be put forth to elaborate. It Is fact that the people of Birmingham as rule know nothing of the big things going on around them. They do not> know the history or the causes or even the location of the great mineral wealth upon which the district is founded. or the principles of mining, mak- ing iron or steel Many of them do not know what a bi-product coke oven is. and many of them could not converse in- telligently about Birmingham's street car system, her water supply. the interesting working of the postoffice. the daily news papers and dozens of other activities which go to make up the city's wealth.
 The Chamber of Commerce will not only assist in making this course of lectures a hut ff, fno fa an educational scheme of its own. Ex- cursions for members of the chamber and their friends will be arranged taking in the principal industries of the district, to be headed by the most expert man in each plant, thus assuring a careful pains taking explanation of every feature. The idea is to give the citizen a detailed knowledge of the details of his district. that he may be informed while both at home and abroad.
 These trips will also be arranged for the sons of members of the chamber, and if they prove popular will be continued at intervals.
 pr. Phillips will ask for the co-opera- ton of the best informed men on each subject. Some of the subjects suggested are the Geology of the Birmingham Dis trict," '-Our Coal Mines" Iron and Steel Production" ''The Bi-Products of Coal" "our Water Supply" "rhe Street Car System of Birmingham, "rhe Lighting of a City" Seeing Greater Birmingham" "Jefferson's Agricultural Resources" Cement and Cement Construction" Railroad Construction and Operation Making Daily Newspapers ''The United States Postoffice," Clay and Brick Pro- cesses," Local Architecture" and num- erous similar topics
 It will require some time to get up the necessary pictures and films and to com plete the arrangements These lectures will be given at various times as the data is completed.

IS AFTER SENATOR'S
 AND CONGRESSMEN Tom Long Wants to Know
 Where They Stand CRISIS IS TOO IMPORTANT Walker County Man Says Officials, Whom People Have Elected,
 Should Declare Their Atti-
 tude Toward Amendment
CRISIS IS TOO IMPORTANT

MT United States senator. where do you stand on this issue?
 MT. Consressmen, do you believe the amendment to the constitution of Ala bama should be carried. or voted down overwhelmingly?
 These question were asked last night py Tom Long, the well-known citizen of Walker county. MT. Long believes the representatives of the people of Alabama should say something concerning this crisis in the affairs of the state. He con- siders it too important to permit the heads of the party to remain within a shell of reticence.
 Why shouldn't the senators and the congressman say something?" said MT. Long. Why should we let them sit at home when Alabama faces such crisis: We have elected them to high offices. We are accustomed to look to them for ad- vice ana guidance. Why, therefore, should we be backward in this particular? Why does one senator go to Europe just as
  tie? Why does the other touch the amendment question not at all, and get exceedingly busy on the gentle good roads proposition? Why does Hobson, after feeling the ground of the Sixth, fly away to the west, and get out of the fight? Why does Underwood sit Quiescent in Birmingham, where perhaps the brunt of the battle will be fought? Why does Henry Clayton, who was permanent chairman of the national democratic con vention, sit in the shade of the trees If Eufaula and decline to mingle in the po- ltical gossip of his neighbors? Why do all the others run when one mentions tho amendment question?
 Do they not love Alabama? Are they not interested in the proposition? Do they not relaize that there Is now a crisis which the state faces? Do they expect sane men to believe that they have no view-no opinion? It is an absolute fact that everyone of them has made up his mind. Then why this silence? Why do the men we have honored refrain from getting in this fight?
 'I consider the situation grave. I con-  slider the question of changing the consti- tution a serious one. Therefore. 1t would be nothing but proper for the senators and the congressman to get in the fight. It Is lack of patriotism when they de- cline to do so. The people know that they hesitate to mingle in bitter fights for fear of making enemies who might do them injury at future elections. But they fear to come forward and admit this. Let them speak out"
 Report has reached Birmingham that Hugh Dent of Montgomery, congressman of the Second district. stated at Brantley some days ago that he intended voting against the amendment. Congressman Burnett. it is generally understood around Birmingham, favors the amendment.

MAGNETICSTORM
 HITS LOCAL WIRES
MUCH TROUBLE EXPERIENCED YESTERDAY IN BIRMINGHAM OFFICES AS RESULT OF UNI USUAL PHENOMENON.

The magnetic storm which was prevail ent all over the country yesterday morn- ing made itself felt in the local office of Birmingham for It's chief distributing point for the entire south. The Vest ern Union office also experienced trouble.
 Early Saturday morning such ejacula- tions as these hurled at the wire chief, were common:
 Lost Memphisr
 Lost St. Louis!''
 Lost Chicago"
 Lost New Orleansr'
 Lost New York on c. n. d.!,
 Lost New York on the frstp Similar expressions from telegraphers all over the operating room were met by the wire chief, busy at his switchboard with the remark: ''Wait minute; you'll get him again."
 The wire chief, an old hand at his bus mess, realized that the Interruptions to the wires were not of the ''earthy'' kind and that terrestrial influence proba- bly, had intervened
 His correct diagnosis of the case was proved later when the United States geodetic bureau at Cheltenham. Md, an- nounced that the instruments of that in stitution were thrown out of contact with the record" by the violence of a magnetic storm which had developed shortly after midnight Friday.
 All wire communication out of Birming- ham was difficult for a time yesterday--it being a sort of ''blind mans bluff''-'now you've got him and now you haven't"
 By o'clock yesterday evening all in- terruptions had disappeared and the wires were again working normally.
