TO CELEBRATE HIS
 S2ND BIRTHDAY

E. W. B. Bayzer. one of Montgom- ery's oldest and most respected citi- zens will celebrate his 82nd birthday "Wednesday at the home of his son, George N: Bayzer. sis South Perry Street. E
 MT. Bayzer was born fourteen miles from Montgomery on the Woodley eral years In his early manhood. spent in teaching school and editing news papers In wetumpka. has been q resi- dent of Montgomery County. He has never resided outside the State of Ala bama, and spends lis S2nd birthday on- ly fourteen miles from the place of his birth. This is . record which few ever attain,
 Mir. Bayxer joined the Notasuiga Lodge 4. F. and A. M. oyer fifty years ago, and Is undoubtedly one of the oldest Masons in yeaFs and ser- vice in the State of Alabama. and nn- til physical infirmities prevented, was Ia regular and devoted attendant at all meetings.i He helped initiate the late Hon. H. Clay Armstrong into the mys- feries of the order in Notasulga. and saw him rise to be one ofe the most prominent Masons in the United States.
 Mir. Bayzer has a wonderfully pre- served intellect and his rsnembrances of Montgomery when she was in her swaddling clothes, are both interesting and entertaining. He made many trips to Montgomery with his father seventy years ago, and he says Montgomery does not look like 1t did then, and that there were no such buildings as the Bell and First National Bank struc- lures.
 Ills many friends join in wishing him many more years in this land of his boyhood home

Mayor Teague will send two of the bunch of paving ordinances, which the council sent on to him. back unap- proved, at the next meeting. Sidewalk paving on South Jackson Street, from Washington to Thurman, does not meet with the approval of the chief execu- tive. HoIcombe Street paving which has found its way to the mayors of fee three times, was again escorted to the doof minus the official signature. < While the Mayor is busy with theae matters, fiunnciers interested in Mont Komery bonds are Keeping up a rum ming fire Of letters asking when the bonds are to be noated. So far more than thirty different letters asking for line on the bonds. and as re- suit of this interest the city's duan- clais Integrity has gone ssp peg or two in the bond market, and tnste8d Of asking somebody to take the, bonds, as some, cities have to beg. Montgomery will be able to take the pick of the pleasing offers that are coming In.
 one reason that is given for this boost in the city's credit is the oft mentioned sinking fund, mode of con- ducting municipal affairs that insures the getting of needed loans and at the same time absolutely secures the cred- itor. That this method of handling the cfty's finances will eventually be adopt ed is a sforegone conclusion with the Aldermen. the lack of necessity for It. because of the city's good standing in the financial world. being the only thing that Is holding the adoption of the plan of.

CITY WILL TAKE UP
 SMALLPOX QUESTION

As a result of the constant trouble the Sanitary Department ia having wtth tke alleged smallpox cases the city san. itary laws will be a topic of discussion at the next Council meeting and steps 1t Is said, will be taken to increase the penalty for uncleanly premises. so that careless persons will be a little more inclined to think of theiF neighbors This matter has come up in Council be- fore and this time 1t will be pushed through with vigor.
 Over half a hundred mild cases of varioloid have kept the men of the san itary Department and the nurses at the detention hospital, busy these days. There are more cases of the tncOnTen- lent illness in the city today than have been in the last three years. As the patients and nurses pat 1t, the suffer ers are not sick, they just have small pox." A mild headache. sometimAs a little fever, and a varied assortment of little pinples, and that is all there is 10 1t.
 The disease is almost entirely con- fined to negroes, and the few white persons who are suffering the tneon- veulence are those who caught it from a negro servant. or live in the vicinity Of the houses of unsanitary negroes. At tho first touch of a clean up and anything like sanitary care, the disease disappears as soon as the place is fu- migated.
 w. O. Ray, a fireman, who went to the detention hospital a few days ago, is now out, and K. A. Boatwright and ]. H. Law, also fremen, will be out in a day or so. The fire station house where the sick men were was thor oughly fnmigated and the malady was confined to the first three who con tracted 1t, they having contracted the trouble handling the goods in blaz- ing negro cabin.

 The Uniontown Trucking Company reports no very diseouFaging loss. Its cabbage crop suffered more than any other, the more advanced heads and some plants left in the open field being. killed, while, strange to say other plants which it was thought had not been reset long enough to take hold upon the soil. were not injured. There are stlIl enough plants left under GOV CT to. replace the loss, but will not have any to sell.
 The company has already sold st80 worth of cabbage plants this season.
 The injury to the caulifiower crop is yn the same proportion. Onions were not touched.

c. N. Pratt, the mining man, was
in town Saturday and Sunday and
departed yesterday morning for his
home in Candeleria.
He states that the old camp is on
the verge of revival and in all
probability, a cyanide plant will be
installed within short time Jesse
Grant, son of General U. S. Grant,
has become interested in the dis
trict, and has assured the people
owning property there that he will
erect the plant. Should this be
done Candeleria will undoubtedly
come up with rush for their is an
untold amount of low grade milling
ore there that can be worked with a
cyanide plant and which will not pay
to ship. A number of leasers are
now working good prospects in the
district and everything points toward
the old camp once more claiming its
share of attention.

135 feet of high grade ore reached
by upraises and stopping, and the
lower level will furnish a tremendous

DEAD Man that
HAPPENED TO BE
DEAD DRUNK
BOY FINDS BODY NORTH OF
TOWN WHICH MYSTERIOUS.
LY DISAPPEARS.

Two boys while out hunting rab-
bits Sunday in the vicinity of the
slaughter house discovered the BODY
of a man, which to all appearances
resembled that Of a dead person.
They hurried back to this city and
informed Chief of Police Malley of
their discovery. The chief with sew
eral others procured wagon and
with all haste possible started to Sc
cure the body. When they arrived
at the place where the boys had
found the body, careful search of
the vicinity failed to reveal anything
that even resembled dead person.
A consultation was held on the
spot and the conclusion reached was
that the dead man was dead drunk
when noticed by the boys, and shortly
after they left had come to his sem
ses and wandered home.
Jim Shelton, who was in the
bunch, state that in all probability
the missing person had evidently
heard of the latest strike at Pioneer
and was hot footing it for that Sec
ton.
