Peculiarly Stimulating

There is something peculiarly stim- ulating in this return of prosperity which is in evidence in the Birming- ham district on every side. As pros porous as Birmingham was from 1900 up to the time of the panic of two years ago, the new era of prosperity upon which we are entering promises more in the way of upbuilding and solid expansion than any previous pe- riod in the history of Jefferson county. All through the time of depression which resulted from the panic optim- ists among the business men felt that things were not as bad as they might have been. They made the best of the situation and never failed to take bright view of the future. But condi- tions hereabouts have been improved so rapidly of late, and such large plans for development in the district are ready to be executed, that practlcaily everybody has become an optimist. There Is no room for croakers in Dir mingham, and none can be found.
 Jefferson county's increase in popu- lation in the last decade was large; from 1890 to 1900 about 60 per cent. The rate of increase was greatest in the year just before the census. And as we approach the next census the rate of increase will be not only accel- erated, but during the next three months the influx of population will be remarked as never before. When prosperity was at it's height in 1907 the county's estimated population was between 225,OOO and 0,O00; but when the census is taken in April the pop ulation of the county will hardly fall below 100000.

Deaths and Disasters of the Year

The Cherry Hill mine explosion and the disaster to the steamer Republic. were the chief home disasters; and there were disasters in other parts of the world in which even greater losses of life occurred.
 The dead of the year include Asso- ciate Justice Peckham, after IA years of service; H. H. Rogers of the Stan dard Oil company, and E. H. Hartman, one of the keenest railroad managers and manipulators the country has ever known. The death of John Stewart Kennedy was followed by the disclo- sure of a will which greatly pleased the general public. He left one-half of his vast fortune to useful public instis tutions in New York. The will he left did much to soften public sentiment toward the overly rich.
 The world of letters lost George Meredith, Algernon Charles Swin- burne, Richard Watson Glider, F. Ma rion Crawford, Cesare Lombroso, and the poet-priest, John Canister Tabb. Among the other dead of the year should be mentioned Gov. John A. Johnson of Minnesota, Senator McLau- rin of Mississippi, Helena Modjeskt, the actress; Dr. Theodore Earth, the leader of the German radicals; Mrs. J. Addison Hayes, daughter of Jefferson Davis, and Edward Everett Hale at the age of ST.

German Ambition in America

This country need not be so flip pant when it discusses German naval ,lans or her designs upon England, for Germany has never recognized our Monroe doctrine, and she is known to nave longings for South American ter -itory. Count von Bernstorff, the Ger nan ambassador, has said otherwise, put the German press has promptly re- )udiated his utterances. One influen- .ial paper in Berlin has already de- bounced Secretary Knoxs interfer- snce in Nicaragua.
 Whenever her navy is large enough the may attempt colonial expansion in South America, and then trouble be- iween her and the United States will come much straighter and surer than will any war between Germany and England.
 This is what gives Congressman Hobson's appeals for larger navy so much force He wants navy large enough to defend our position at all times and in all places. He perhaps points to Japan too much, but when he appeals for a navy that will insure peace and that will keep any Euro pean power from seizing, under any pretext, any American territory, he wins the sympathy and support of the people. Germany must at any rate be kept from gaining a foothold in this hemisphere.

ZELAYA NOT HELD
 AS A PRISONER

Mexico city, December H.-"Not pre- cisely," was the comment of Minister of Foreign Relations Ignacio Mariscal tonight after reading a dispatch from Managua in which it was stated that Mexico was understood to have accepted zelaya virtually as a prisoner and had agreed to prevent his return to Nic- aragua.
 He is not prisoner and we have not specifically agreed that he should not return to his country declared MT. Mariscal. "Tacitly, yes, we recognized his government while he was at it's head; we must recognize the govern ment of his successor. To allow him to return to Nicaragua we realize would be to foment trouble for the new gov- ernment He is free, however, to go to any other country he may choose.
 AS to responsibility for his person, we have assumed none. We are natur- ally responsible for his acts while guest in this country and would not knowingly permit him to conspire against the government which succeeds him. We have no formal agreements with any government or person with respect to him or his person or acts. nor have we been asked to make such agreement
 AS to Zelayas responsibility for his al- legged crimes, Minister Marica' said that he considered that he was answerable only to the people of his country and in the capacity of official position which he held and not personally.

Events of the Year

The year now nearly run out put an end to absolutism in Turkey. That country adopted a constitution and elected a parliament, and constitu- tional rule is as well established there as 1t is in Germany, and much better than it Is in Russia, where trials by courts-martial are still prevalent.
 In this country the year ushered in the Aldrich-Payne tariff, which is sev- eral degrees more oppressive on the many for the benefit of the few than the Dingley tariff. MT. Taft joined hands with Speaker Cannon and Sen ator Aldrich, and the new scheme was fastened on the country. It is already increasing the cost of living, support ing and protecting as 1t does the trusts and monopolies that are springing up on every hand.
 This tariff is so oppressive it has produced split in the republican par. ty. and the insurgents, as they are call ed. are becoming an important factor in middle-states politics. The Presi dents Winona speech has put the en. tire body of insurgents against him and the Ballinger-Pinchot affair bids fair to add to the troubles of the new administration. The sugar frauds and labor strikes have sdded to these trou, bles. and altogether the adminlstra ton. which is but nine months old has lost ground in the public mind

THANKS RECEIVED
 FROM NICARAGUA

Washington, December 27.-A te1e- gram from the revolutionary party of Nicaragua was received today by the American Red Cross society, thanking the secretary for its work in reliev- ing the distress of the soldiers of the government army captured near Rama and quartered in Bluehelds. The tele- gram, which was signed by General Estrada, said in part:
 Tt is worth profound appreciation that we Nicaraguans view the charity and kindness which characterizes your work for humanity. The message which brought the shocking news of the distressing condition in, which our captives arrived in Bluehelds could have but just reached you ere your directors had given instructions through your stat department for the issuance of supplies for the subsist- ence of the Zelayan sick and weary, now by the fortunes of war. under our care The resources of the revolution are sufficient only to provide for it's troops and the many hundred forced upon us by the surrender of sselayaB entire army at Recreo would have placed us in q pitiable condition had 1t not been for your noble actions.
 "Nicara guans are appreciative and will not forget your prompt relief and the fervent prayers of its people in thanks for your bounty were offered on Christmas day in our churches. Rep resenting the revolution and personally, I communicate eternal gratitude"

BRoWNSVILLE INQUIRY.
Negro Soldier Throws Out Hint of
 Possible Information.

Washington December 27.-Sergeant James F. Reid of Company B, Twenty fifth infantry, one of the soldiers dis charged from the army in connection with the shooting up of Brownsville. was on the witness stand before the military court of inquiry today being cross examined by Capt. James Rowland. Reid did not appear to remember much about the shooting.
 Now. Reid" said Captain Rowland, suppose you were conducting this case and wanted to find out which of the sol diers did the shooting, who would you examine frst2''
 T speet I'd hunt up Holloman," replied Reid, easily.
 The members of the court looked star tied and sat up expecting to hear some of the much wanted names.
 Why do you name Holoman?" asked Captain Howland
 '"Cause he's the man you folks bave been asking me most about" replied Reid, with a grin.
 Attorney Marshall, counsel for the col ored soldiers, later brought out that Reid and Holloman have lately been part ners in moving picture show. and there is now some question of money between them.
 There were no startling disclosures from Reid's testimony.

FORGOT SOMETHING.
AMERICAN BEATEN
 AND ARRESTED

Washington, December 27-A telegram that the son of an American citizen liv- ing in Granada recently was beaten and arrested there, presumably under orders of the new officials, installed by Madriz. Zelaya's successor.
 These officials came from Leon and there Is reason to believe that they acted under the authority of the Madriz gov ernment. The boy was not registered as an American at the United States consul late, but that fact will not prevent the consulate officials from taking cognizance of the matter.
 The state department as yet has issued no orders with respect to it. The tele- gram also states that troops from Leon are being sent eastward presumably to intercept Estrada in Managua.
 The governor of Salvador states he has given permission for the marines from the United States ship Buffalo to en- camp on one of its islands in the gulf of Fonsica, Manguere, Conchaguita, or Pun ta sacete. The encampment may be col, iected, as it may be convenient to the United States government The marines from the Buffalo was made necessary for their health and sanitation. The report from Managua that Madriz had ordered the arrest of son-in-law of Zelaya and his former minister of finance is regard cd here as intended to deceive the people as to his real relations toward ZeIaya.
 It seems to be the general opinion that Madriz term of office will expire with the arrival of Estradas army at the na- tional capital.

FarReachIno Effect.

Judge Gary's visit to Birmingham and his optimistic remarks on the south in general and the Birmingham district in particular. will have far-reaching effect for good" said J. P. Sterling of Wash ington, D. c.
 T do not know Judge Gary personally but his interviews which appeared after he had been to this city and inspected the properties of the Tennessee company in Alabama were widely read and no one could read them without being im- pressed with their ring of sincerity. The chairman of the United States Steel cor poration is, as matter of course, an able, broad-minded man of affairs And when he speaks of the splendid future of the south capital is sure to be influenced by what he says.
 "As Judge Gary said 1t used to be tho west to which the country looked for add ing enormous wealth to the nation, but from now on we must speak of the west and the south in this connection or words to that effect.
 The potentialities of the south are and when a man in Judge Gary's position stresses that fact good results are cer- tain to follow"

New York, December 27.-William G.

His con- Sition was considered precarious. Pro- lessor Sumner son was notified and was soon at his fathers bedside.

MURDER MYSTERY UNsoLvED
Detectives Fall To Find clew to the
 Slayer of Boy.

Pittsburg. December H.-After question: ing half score of persons and applying the third degree police method to half as many more, the entire detective force of Greater Pittsburg and the 20 agency op- eratives Investigating the case are still at sea as to the identity of the man, or men, implicated in the murder of 14-year- old James Friel. whose frozen and part ly nude body was found late last night in a deserted house In Allegheny. where it had been probably placed Christmas day, after the throat had been slashed from ear to ear.
 Police tonight hold the theory that young Friel was not killed in the house where his body was found, but probably murdered in Pittsburg and carried to the deserted house..
 The death of the boy is the continuation, so the police say, of a series of lesser crimes perpetrated during the past year In Greater Pittsburg. Arrests are expected tomorrow

PHIL KINGS VIEWS
 UPON FOOTBALL

Washington, December N-Phil King. the old Princeton quarter, has forwarded the following suggestions for changing the rules of football to the intercollegiate Athletic associations:
 Play the backs five yards back of the line of scrimmags.
 Play seven men on the line of defense at all times. In order to offset the line on defense spreading against that formation. allow the quarterback to run anywhere with the ball.
 "In the event that the forward pass 10 retained, remove all restrictions, allow ing passes over the line and allowing any player to recover the ball after 1t has been touched and fumbled.
 Arrange one minute rests at the each of 10, 20 and 30 minute periods, giving the captains a little time to note the mons condition and fitness to remain In the game.
 No coach or other man connected with a contesting team to be allowed on the field during the period of rest"
