MORE LIQUOR IS
 POURED IN SEWER
IMMENSE QUANTITY STORED AT COUNTY JAIL WILL PROBABLY BE SIMILARLY DISPOSED OF IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

The confiscation of the second lot of liquor under prohibition laws enacted at the recent extraordinary session of the legislature occurred in front of the coun- ty jail yesterday afternoon. Thirty-six gallons of beer and whisky, taken in a raid upon the rooms of k. L. Glenn on Third avenue, were poured into the man. hole of the sanitary sewer.
 The liquor was destroyed under an order of confscation issued by Judge H. B. Abernethy of the inferior criminal court. The bottles were all broken and after this work was done by Sheriff Higdon the paper wrappers were heaped up and fire was set to them, 1t being a provision of the Fuller bill that all cartoons, wrappers and recetacles be destroyed when the liquor Is conf1scated
 The destruction of liquor under the con- flscatory clause of the Fuller bill will Matters are being shaped so that the im- nense quantity of liquor which is now stored in the county jail as contraband may be be disposed of
 In this respect the police are consid- era ply handicapped. Nine out of every 10 prohibition cases which come up in the police court are appealed. It Is obligatory that the police hold the liquor until the conviC ton is secured In the criminal court. Therefore great quantities of liquor are acoun ulating at police headquarters, and the matter of finding room to care for the contraband is becoming something of a problem

GERMANS ID ENTER NATIONAL ALLIANCE Local Branch Formed Here
 Last Night >TA1E MEt INC CALLED J. Moersch of St. Paul Discusses ob. Ject-Each County of Alabama
 Having German Residents
 To Be Organized.
>TA7E NEE IING CALLED

At meeting of the German-American members of the Turn-verein and Con- cordla societies held last night a local branch of the National German-American Alliance was formally organized. Organi- zations are being perfected in each coun- ty of the state where there are German American citizens, and a state convention will be called in Birmingham during the State Fair at which the counties will be organized into a state association and this will be formally affiliated with the national body.
 The organization last night was effected at the instance of J. Moersch of St. Paul, Minn.. one of the head officials of the national organization who came to Birmingham as the personal representa- tive of the national president, pr. c. c. Hexamer of Philadelphia. Officers of the local organization elected last night are August Bunker president: H. Hentshe first vice president: A. Kuhlo, second vice president; Henry Uhl, third vice president Max Carpeles, secretary: H. Jungerman assistant secretary, and D. c. Behrens treasurer.
 'The National German American AL nance, said MT Moersch last night has a membership of 5000 ,000 all of whom are voters. We strive to perpetu- ate the ideals of our forefathers and to tnculcate into the minds of our members those ideals which will make Us better American citizens. Incidentally, it might be said that we oppose such things [ drastic prohibition laws. Not because | German citizens are so constituted that they cannot get along without their beer this is a great mistake people make in talking about the Germans-but because we believe in personal liberty and that 1t is wrong for one set of men to try to engraft ideas upon others by force.
 We believe in law enforcement and we constantly urge our members to obey every law strictly. If law Is wrong they should get together and repeal 1t But as long as it is the law 1t should be obeyed. Two weeks ago in St. Paul we celebrated German day and there were fully 25,0o0 German-Americans in the park where the celebration was held and not a drop of beer was handled m the grounds during the entire day. 1t was Sunday and in Minnesota 1t Is against the law to sell beer on Sunday If we had wished to have beer the authorities would probably have winked at the tech nical violation, but we insisted on having the law carried out to the letter."

THE DOCTORS WIFE Agrees With Him About Food.

trained nurse says: "In by practice of my profession I have found so many points in favor of Grape Nuts food that l unhestatingy recommend it to aD my patients
 Ut is delicate and pleasing to the pal ate Gan essential in food for the sick) and can be adapted to all ages, being softened with milk or cream for babies or the aged when deficiency of teeth renders masti- cation impossible For fever patients or those on liquid diet I find Grape-Nuts and albumen water very nourishng and refreshing.
 ''rhis recipe Is my own idea and is made as follows: Soak teaspoonful of Grape Nuts In a glass of water for an hour strain and serve with the beaten white of an egg and spoonful of fruit juice for fiavoring. This affords a great deal of nourishment that even the weakest stomach can assimilate without any dis tress.
 My husband is a physician and he uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders 1t many times for his patients.
 "Personally I regard dish of Grape nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the ideal breakfast for anyone-well or sick"
 In any case of stomach trouble, nervous prostration or brain flag, a 10 day trial of Grape Nuts will work wonders toward nourishing and rebuilding and In this way ending the trouble.

The greatest political meeting ever held in the state of Alabama has been called for Birmingham Saturday, October 9 It vii lbe something entirely new and orig inal and will be an enormous demonstra- tion against the constitutional amend- ment.
 J. Lee Long issued the call yesterday after conference with D. D. Smith and Jesse Stallings. Twenty of the most prominent citizens of the state will be on hand to make the addresses. Capitol park the scene of this open air rally will be brilliantly lighted. and arrange ments made to allow every one of the 1000 who are expected an opportunity to hear
 The surprising and unique feature of the meeting-one never planned in Ala bama politics before-i- seen in the de- cision to erect ten speaking stands. Two of the speakers will be placed each stand and ten speakers will be filling the air with reasons against the amendment at the same time.
 It is believed that Capitol park and the streets leading to it will be thronged with people from all sections, who will come up to this indignation meeting. The speakers come from 14 counties of the state and are leading men in each case.
 While voters will be welcomed from all parts of the state, the call will be dis tributed only in those counties adjacent to Jefferson. Two railroads will allow very low rates and will put on special cars to handle the crowds.
 The personnel of the list of speak CTS has never been equaled on any stump in the state. Nearly all of them are natural orators, men of statewide rep utation and influence. The meeting will
