GREENFIELD AN ADMIRER
OF INSPECTOR DEW

Cecil Grenfell, a member of the Eng
lish parliament, a banker of interna-
tional reputation and a large bondholder
in Birmingham properties, is an ardent
admirer of Inspector Dew of Scotland
Yard, the English sleuth who captured
DR.. Crippen and his typist in Canada a
few days ago.
Mr.. Grenfell has been watching the
International chase between Crippen and
Inspector Dew with the true Britisher' s
love for the power of Scotland Yard.
II am glad that Dew caught his man.
said Mr.. Grenfell yesterday. THAT was
a rare chase. and again Scotland Yard
proves its shrewdness and its powers of
rare deduction. Dew Is one of the best
known inspectors In London, or in Eng
land as for the matter of that, and we
knew when he started out after the flee
ing dentist that he would land him. I
am sorry for the typist as I think she
is a dupe, but one may feel sure that
Scotland gard will do the square thing
by her."

ON NEW JOHNS ROAD

Bessemer, August ESPECIALLY tramp

office this morning and when he went out
a numbering machine was missed Hav-
ing heard that the fellow had boarded
car for Birmingham an automobile was
secured and several men with an officer
started in a wild race to overtake the
car before it reached Birmingham, but
when overtaken no printer nor tramp was
on board, and the report has 1t that the
tramp was walking the streets of Bes-
semer while the wild ride was on.
Men were taken to the public road be-
tween Johns and the Tuscaloosa line to-
day to begin work. The contract has been
let and the work will be pushed as fast
as possible. When completed the road
between Birmingham and the Tuscaloosa
line via Bessemer and Johns will be an
ideal one. The contract calls for the
work to be done by fall.
Many old Confederate veterans attended
the reception rendered to them by the
Daughters of the Confederacy of Besse-
mer at the home of. Mrs. j. Ellie Nc
Adory in Jonesboro this afternoon. The
affair was a most delightful one in every
respect. and the old veterans heartily
enjoyed the splendid collation..
Bids for the construction of the West
Lake Automobile club will be opened on
Monday next, and as soon as the con-
tract is let the work of remodeing and
rebuilding will be commenced. 1t is ex-
pected that the clubhouse will be ready
for opening by October /.
The Bessemer Foundry and Machine
company has just finished and shipped
contract of six carloads of sugarhouse
machinery for large plantation in Porto
Rico. The machinery was very heavy.
and great care was used in its manufac-
ture. The shipment went forward via
New Orleans.

street gang, made his escape yesterday
afternoon, quietly going into the weeds
and cutting off his shacl<les He had
100 or more days to serve the city be-
fore he would have secured his liberty.
Many citizens of Bessemer will take adj
vantage of the especially low rates Of
fered by the railroads to eastern and
northern points. Several parties have
already been arranged for trips to Nor
folk and Virginia Beach, while not
few will go to New York either by rail
or boat. The crowds that went last year
from Bessemer will be more than doubled
this year.
"Shug'' Baggett, who is alleged to have
cut Ed Finch with a knife on the after
noon of July on Nineteenth street, in
Bessemer, was given a preliminary hear
ing this morning before Mayor l. A.
Lewis, and was held under $500 bond to
await the action of the grand jury. Bond
was made and the defendant was re-
leased. At one time 1t was believed that

perfection of durability and high

leaders in their line, and today they
show more styles Of distinctive, pro-

Many Local Business Men Expect to Make Trip Into A. & C.
 Country October 27.

Thursday, October 27, has been definitely set as the date for the get acquainted" excursion to Park CT This date seems to be satis- factory. to most of the business men of the city and nearly all have prom ised to make strenuous efforts to go along with the crowd and endeavor to bring about closer relations be- tween Phoenix and the people of the A.

 The excursion train will leave Phoenix at II o'clock in the evening and reach Parker about 6:30 the next morning. Parkers business men will be at the station to welcome the excursiomsts, and it is probable that the Phoenicians will take breakfast with them.
 Parker will be left behind at 10 or 10 20 and the eXcursiOnists will arrive in Gouse for lunch. It ig possible that after the midday meal they will run out to Swanson, a town nf 1000 people, where the Clara Con solidated mine and shelter are To- cated Stops of a few minutes each will be made at Salome and Wen den. Supper will be taken at WicN- enburg and the train will pull into Phoenix about 10 o'clock on the ev- ening of Friday, the 25th.
